Holbein Acrylic Gouache is a professional acrylic resin-based paint renowned for its exceptional pigmentation and velvety matte finish. It applies like a classic gouache, but offers the strength and stability of acrylic: once dry, it becomes waterproof and does not reactivate with water.

Its intense and lightfast colours offer great depth and remain true even after drying – the difference between wet and dry colour is virtually invisible.

You can use it:

-Straight from the tube, for an opaque and highly covering finish.

-Mixed with a little water, to obtain softer washes or effects similar to watercolor.

Thanks to its fluid and homogeneous texture, it blends easily with other colors to create new shades or beautiful gradients. Its main advantage: it allows for clean, layered application without lifting the paint underneath, which is ideal for working on details or building an illustration step by step.

Holbein Acrylic Gouache is suitable for many surfaces:
paper, canvas, wood, ceramics, fabric, leather, and more.
Brushes and tools can simply be cleaned with water as long as the paint has not dried.
