made from 100% cotton to high archival standards.The surface has a
gentle texture, soft and good-tempered nature, and is a strong and
stable enough sheet to ensure excellent printing. It remains flat
after printing and offers durability and long life to finished
editions of work.All materials are screened in the mill to ensure
minimal environmental effect. No hazardous chemicals are released
into the water ways. Pulps are sourced from sustainable sources (no
rainforests are harmed in making the papers), and the cotton
linters are a by-product from the textile industry.
Jackson’s Handmade Soft Pastels are high quality, artist grade pastels. There are 200 soft and bright colours in the range, as well as a wide variety of themed selection sets.
Our Soft Pastels are made carefully by hand which makes them very soft with a smooth, buttery consistency. They have a low binder to pigment ratio which makes them rich and luminous, allowing for both subtle and bold mark making.
Their excellent lightfast qualities mean that pastel paintings created with them will not deteriorate over time. The four fluorescent colours are the only exception; like all fluorescent colours they are not lightfast.
The pastels are made solely from pigments, a bentonite clay binder, and calcium carbonate (chalk). Each pastel measures approximately 55mm in length and 15mm in diameter.

outdoor painting. Available in a range of sizes, plus sets.
Jackson's White Gesso Panels are made of Cradled Pine and MDF board, and can be bought as singles or in packs of ten. These economical panels feature a surface that is tough enough for the most rigorous painting and mixed-media techniques.
Jackson's White Gesso Panels have been hand-coated with a professional acid-free acrylic gesso ground, with added Titanium White. The frame is made of Pine wood, and the board is MDF. This makes them ideal for use with all drawing and painting media. Because these panels have been made by hand, they are not perfectly uniform and may display slight differences in texture. The surface of the panel may appear perfectly smooth, or be slightly textured like cold-pressed watercolour paper. If a perfectly smooth surface is required, they can be given a light sanding with fine grade sandpaper.
These panels are great for watercolour - if you want a smoother, even more absorbent ground, you can add one of our watercolour mediums.

SHARPIE Paint Marker: Fine White Card 1'S
Our very own Eco friendly 100% cotton, internally & externally gelatine sized, deckle edged handmade paper from India.
The machinery normally used to make paper uses alot of energy, turning paper pulp into a giant roll of perfectly dry paper in barely a minute. Our handmade papers however are made from recycled cotton, they are individuallyset into the moulds and then dried slowly in the Indian sun. The water used in the production is then run off to irrigate the field neighbouring the factory. These papers are alsomade in special small moulds which allows us to produce beautiful deckle edged sheets in 1/4 & 1/2 imperial sizes. All papers are available at an unbeatable price!
1/4 and 1/2 sheets are deckled on all four sides of the 140lb & 200lb papers.

A brush with spring and good point.
It is a remarkable man-made brush imitation of natural sable hair. Each
Dalon filament is extruded and tapered to a point, just like natural
hair, and the brush head is meticulously hand-crafted with exactly the
same care and attention as the brush it is designed to rival.
Dalon’s high resilience and durability ensures excellent shape
retention and long life in use for oils, watercolours and acrylics
alike. Dalon as an alternative fills the demand for a brush with a very
similar performance to sable; yet at a fraction of the cost.
Jackson's Wooden Panels are made of smooth, sanded light plywood, reinforced on the reverse to prevent warping. Sturdy yet lightweight, they are perfect for plein air painting projects and work in the studio.
These panels are made from wood and they are not supplied sealed. This means that liquids are absorbed into the surface and if they get too ‘wet’, there could be a swelling of the veneer. If the panel is to be used for painting then you should seal the surface with a quality glue size or an acrylic based primer. When you're applying acrylic gesso primer, avoid thinning it with water.
After sizing we recommend priming with acrylic gesso and sanding the surface to produce a smooth yet slightly absorbent surface.
Jackson's Wooden Panels can also be used for encaustic painting, or as a work support / drawing board.
Available in 20mm (approx. 3/4") and 50mm (approx. 2") deep profiles, in a wide range of sizes.
Please note: as this is a natural product, small cracks can develop on the surface. These can be removed by sanding the surface before applying the sealer or primer.
