Paul Furneaux: printmaking artist

animal glue

18 May 2009 by Alison

4: Paints and Pigments

I normally use gouache or watercolour paints, prepared in small dishes or used directly from the tube.

If I want a richer colour, I use pure pigments. These are ground in a pestle and mortar and mixed with a binder, such as gum arabic or animal glue. I’ll usually also mix them with some rice paste glue on the block itself.
