Derivan : Matisse Dry Medium : 40ml : Black Flakes

Artists will be excited by the varying effects achievable with the different methods used to apply the Matisse Dry Mediums. They provide magnificent textural effects and will surprise artists and viewers alike.

This versatile, precision-cut black flake is made from coated polyester film. It can be used in a variety of ways for effect and texture or as a finish in itself. Use as either a striking decorative effect or a distinctive texture on paintings and indoor sculptures, or sprinkle onto a freshly painted surface. Where a rough texture has been chosen, care should be taken – a hard and rocky surface can scratch the unwary once the work is dry.

For best aesthetic results mix with Derivan Gel Medium or Polymer Gloss Varnish (water-based), as anything with a matt finish will marr the final result. Use as much as needed from desired effect.
