On This Page : Water Colour Mediums Water Colour Mediums Colourless Art Masking Film A colourless liquid for masking areas of work needing protection when colour is applied in broad washes. Specifically designed for soft sized papers to avoid staining. For best results, remove within 24 hours of application. Composition : rubber latex. Brush can be cleaned if washed immediately with water after use.
Gum Arabic A pale coloured solution that increases the gloss and transparency of water colour. Thins with water.
Ox Gall Liquid Wetting agent used to improve the acceptance of water colours on paper.
Granulation Medium Gives a mottled or granular appearance to colours which normally give a smooth wash, adding interest or dimension to otherwise flat areas.
Lifting Preparation Allows dry washes, including staining colours, to be more easily lifted from paper with a wet brush or sponge, allowing corrections to be made. Must be applied to the paper first, and allowed to dry.
Permanent Masking Medium Used to mask specific areas of the paper making them resistant to water. Can also be mixed with water colours, and is ideal for isolating areas of fine detail. Once dry, these areas remain protected and cannot be fully penetrated by further washes.
Blending Medium (slows drying) Used to slow the drying rate of water colours, allowing more time for blending.
Texture Medium Contains fine particles, can be used to give the impression of depth and structure to water colour paintings.
Iridescent Medium Gives pearlescent or glitter effects to water colours, either mixed directly or applied over a dried wash.
Prepared Size A gelatine sizing which is used to reduce the absorbency of papers, boards and lightweight textiles. It is applied with a brush and flows more easily when warmed in a pan of warm water for a few minutes.
Water Colour Mediums A pale coloured binder that when mixed with water colours improves their flow. Can be thinned with water.
