Aquarylic Colors are a new type of paint medium that combines transparency and luminosity in a unique way. The special transparency of Aquarylic Colors allows works of art to be built up in layers, creating impressive depth and vibrancy. Despite their transparency, the colors retain an intense luminosity and color intensity, which is enhanced by a slight sheen. When used as a glaze, the colors take on a watercolor character and follow the water, but dry to become waterproof. In their pure state, they are ideal for combining with traditional oil paint, whether for the wet-on-wet technique or on already dried oil paint. Aquarylic Colors adhere to a variety of surfaces such as canvas, paper, wood, metal and glass, opening up completely new possibilities for artistic expression.

Aquarylic Color uses a specially formulated binder that provides a unique blend of properties, including the ability to blend perfectly with other color mediums such as acrylic, watercolor and oil paints.

Compared to acrylic paints, Aquarylic Colors are more fluid, dry glossy or satin-matt and retain their luminosity without darkening significantly when drying. Watercolour paints, on the other hand, remain water-soluble after drying, while Aquarylic Colors form a waterproof layer. In addition, Aquarylic Colors offer exceptional colour intensity, even when applied as a glaze.

Yes, Aquarylic Color is water-based. This allows for easy dilution with water and versatile application.

Yes, Aquarylic Colors can be mixed with oil paints, resulting in unique effects. It is important to note that this does not produce a 100% homogeneous mass due to the different viscosities. In contrast to pure oil paints, Aquarylic Colors dry faster, which is ideal for artists who value quick drying and high mixability. Aquarylic Colors also offer a low viscosity, which supports smooth transitions in sfumato techniques.

Chalk paints are used on various surfaces, particularly canvas or wood. When used pure, all colors are opaque and dry matt. Powdery effects can be achieved by diluting with water.
