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.

The 10oz traditional medium texture weave used for our Premium Cotton Canvas is suitable for oil and acrylic painting - from thin washes to thick impasto marks, and is universally primed to protect the natural fibres of the cotton.

Unique to this range are a number of sizes that have the proportions of the Golden Ratio, the shape considered most aesthetically pleasing throughout western art history. Nothing has been compromised in their manufacture so that nothing is compromised in your finished work. GS = Golden Section size(-) = Crossbar(+) = 2 x Crossbar

Both surface and internally sized, 1557® paper offers a remarkable resistance to repeated erasing without degradation.

This superb artist grade watercolour paper from Saunders Waterford has a watermark in the corner for authenticity and 4 deckle edges which are visually beautiful and perfect for float framing. Please note that while Saunders Waterford High White papers are noticeably whiter than the traditional Saunders Waterford paper, they still have a pale cream appearance. This is because it is not currently possible to whiten the paper to a bright white without compromising light-fastness by using Optical Brightening Agents. The whiter shade of Saunders Waterford High White paper is achieved by adding a high white lightfast pigment with good long-life properties, as used in some watercolour paints. Artists grade watercolour paper is archival which means it will not discolour or fall apart over time and is made of 100% cotton rag. This paper is much more durable than lower grades of paper because it is gelatine surface sized and it is mould-made, both of which mean it can take scrubbing of the surface without falling apart. Saunders Waterford paper is endorsed by the Royal Watercolour Society.

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.

It is a wonderful long-handled brush, perfect for acrylic painting techniques.

Holbein watercolours produce brilliant transparent washes as well as powerful clean darks when used in more concentrated applications.

Jacksons Two Rivers Handmade Watercolour Paper : NOT surface : 300lb : 16x20in : single sheet Made exclusively for Jackson s by the Two Rivers paper mill in Somerset. This paper is conservation quality, made with 100% cotton and linen rag and very hard sized. This means that the surface is incredibly tough, allowing the artist to work the surface for much longer than with more absorbent artists papers. Because the paint is not drawn into the paper the pigment dries to a sharp and brilliant finish. The inclusion of linen in its make-up results in an unusually tough surface which will resist much lifting out, scrubbing and re-working. Reassuringly, the 400 year old mill is also hydro powered making it very environmentally friendly. TR has a unique random surface texture unlike the mechanically even weave of most other branded papers. This also means that there is not a right or wrong side as both sides are identical. As well as watercolour, our papers are used for other media including pastels, oils, printmaking, photographic processes and many types of mixed media. The NOT surface is slightly rougher than most.

Akoya brushes, so named because their pure white silky hairs resemble the Akoya pearl, have been developed to match and build upon qualities offered by the leading natural hog brushes. Colour and liquid absorbency is maximised by craters in each hair that gather pigment and replicate natural hairs in a way that other synthetic brushes are not capable of.

In addition to this, the Akoya brushes maintain the excellent spring and shape that one would expect of a synthetic brush, reinforced by the two thicknesses of hair used. These brushes are designed to last, thanks to a heating process that causes the hairs to retain their shape after use, and the strength of the filaments themselves. This durability means that you won't have bristles breaking off in your paint. With slightly stiffer hair than our Procryl brushes, the Akoya exhibits the best characteristics of both the highest grade natural and the finest synthetic brushes.

Please note that this synthetic brush does not contain any animal products, either in the varnish, bristles, paint or glue.
