Winsor & Newton Water Colour Mediums

Full range of mediums to expand artists' creativity with watercolors!

Intro Set - A great introduction to the quality of Winsor & Newton Watercolor Mediums, this set contains 30 ml (1 oz) bottles of Art Masking Fluid, Gum Arabic, Iridescent Medium, and Texture Medium, plus an informational leaflet.


Aquapasto - A translucent gel medium that reduces flow and thickens water colours & gouache to give an impasto effect.


Art Masking Fluid - Apply to watercolor paper for masking. Forms an impervious film which can be easily removed by peeling or rubbing.


Blending Medium - Slows the drying rate of water color to allow more time for blending.


Colourless Masking Fluid - Identical to Art Masking Fluid but contains no pigment. Absence of pigment eliminates the risk of staining paper.


Granulation Medium - Gives a granular appearance to colors.


Gum Arabic - Mix into watercolors to increase gloss and transparency.


Iridescent Medium - Gives pearlescent or glitter effect to watercolors.


Lifting Preparation - Allows dry washes, including staining colors to be more easily lifted from paper with wet brush or sponge.


Ox Gall Liquid - Mix into pale watercolors to improve their flow and wetting.


Permanent Masking Fluid - Use to mask specific areas of paper and make them resistant to water. Can be mixed with water color to allow more time for blending.


Texture Medium - Contains particles to give impression of depth and structure to water color paintings. (Not removable)
