Description
The Holbein Irodori Artists' Gouache collection offers traditional gouache colours inspired by the beauty of the four seasons in Japan, and this Autumn set captures the warm, earthy tones of the season. As with their watercolours, Holbein have produced a gouache of exceptional quality, grinding their pigments more finely than others and adding little or no opaquing agents to their colour. The pigments used have been chosen for exceptional saturation and the ability to mix freely without loss of brilliance, opacity, or hue values. The colours will give consistent results without darkening or muddiness, and will not bleed or crack, offering complete opacity when layered. This extra fine pigment gives artists a smooth, opaque matt finish well suited to traditional and contemporary Japanese-style painting alike.
This set of 12 x 15ml tubes brings together colours evocative of autumn, from the warm Safflower Red, Orange, and Gardenia Yellow through to the earthy Amur Cork Yellow, Amber, and Bark Brown. Smoked Bamboo, Leek Green, Pine Tree Green, and Elm Green offer a rich range of muted foliage tones, while Indigo provides deep, saturated contrast reminiscent of autumn skies. Antique Rich Gold rounds out the set, adding a subtle metallic warmth well suited to the season's golden hues. The gouache is also easily rewettable, allowing dried paint to be reactivated with water for continued use. This curated seasonal palette makes it easy to capture the rich, mellow character of autumn without mixing from a larger range.
