Is this better than Brusho?? - Jackman's crystalline watercolour

Jackman's (don't confuse with Jackson's) is a UK art material manufacturer which loves to solve problems and come up with interesting new art materials, as well as excellent versions of traditional ones.

I love playing with Brusho, but certain colours fade in UV as it is dye based, so when I saw Jackman's had a pigment based, lightfast crystal which works in a similar way, I just had to try it. You can sprinkle onto wet paper, sprinkle onto dry and spritz or mix and use as watercolour.

If you want to have a go, you can buy them here: https://www.jackmansartmaterials.co.uk/ They ship worldwide. This is not an affiliate link and I bought the paints myself, so the views I give are entirely my own. Though if lovely‪@jackmansartmaterials‬ fancy sending me some of the other colours, I wouldn't say no!! Well, there's a hint....

I aim to share a tip or technique every week - usually on Sunday at 2pm. I might throw in a few bonus films or shorts, so it’s worth hitting the notification bell to be alerted to the next one.

Every like and comment tells YouTube to show this to more people, so please jump in and share with your creative friends. If you really, really like this content and want to support me you can donate at Kofi. I have just set it up at: https://ko-fi.com/lizchadertonartist
