Bob Ross Acrylic Primer - White (100 ml): Bob Ross Acrylic Primer - White (100 ml)
R345 Discovery Miles 3 450 Ships in 7 - 14 working days

Liquid Acrylic Primer (White) is one of three Bob Ross Liquid Basecoats essential to the Bob Ross Wet-on-Wet Technique. Each basecoat allows artists to actually blend and mix colours right on the canvas rather than working on the palette. The Liquid White can also be used to thin other colours for application over thicker paints. The idea that a thin paint will stick to a thick paint is the basis for this entire technique.

Bob Ross colours are an excellent choice for artists who are painting in the same style as Joy of Painting host Bob Ross. This range of Bob Ross artists’ materials has been exclusively designed to create beautiful oil paintings using the successful wet-on-wet techniques made popular by the late leading TV artist Bob Ross.

Bob Ross products are part of a unique system that help even complete beginners to create realistic landscapes, animals or flowers in oil within a few hours. The system uses a special, slow-drying primer ideal for wet in wet techniques, special brushes and painting knives, and a comprehensive range of instruction manuals and videos.
