✨A little about Kuretake's NEW Lunar Range! ✨

🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑

The NEW Lunar range brings five new granulating colours to Kuretake's extensive Gansai Tambi colour range. This addition brings their granulating colours up to fifteen and compliments the Aurora and Cosmic ranges perfectly.

Granulating colours differ from their regular range in that when they are applied to wet paper they split into two colours making for very interesting effects and texture in your work. Paint these colours into an already wet area of the page and watch as one colour splits into two as their heavier pigments settle separately from their lighter counterparts.

As always happy painting!
