11.01.2022 We'd like to give a dedicated shout out to our #Inspiring Art Story of the week! Jo Ranocchia Winner of the ‘Pastel Painting’ Contest - Colourful Lies This powerful pastel painting is full of colours & deeper meanings than what meets the immediate eye. In fact, the story of the painting itself reflects how the artist is hiding behind all of the vibrant, beautiful colours that portray a sense of happiness, when deep down she struggles with feelings of inadequacy. ... Jo felt as though this painting reflects her & how she feels, which is why the masterpiece is very important to her. Incredible. Thanks for the #Inspo Jo & we love your work. You can read more about Jo here: https://www.kingsframingandartgallery.com//colourful-lies-

08.01.2022 What a sensational quote by the French Artist, Paul Gauguin. He teaches us that creativity & possibility comes from our imagination and we can only truly see it when we look inward.

07.01.2022 ON NOW! Our Matisse Flow Formula Acrylic 75ml Paints & Matisse Structure Formula Acrylic 75ml Paints are now on #SALE! These paints are made in #Australia - making it perfect to chat about one of our favourite colours, the Australian Red Violet. ... The pigment in Australian Red Violet is an intense red-violet version of quinacridone & is remarkable for the many different shades that result from chemists making small adjustments to the molecule. This is very cool seeing as not all pigments are capable of such variety of colour. It is lightfast, even in the palest of tints & is semi-transparent, which means it has more body than most other quinacridone pigments. Australian Red Violet is very suitable for use as a general violet in all techniques. Mixed with Ultramarine Blue, it makes deep violets and purples that are more light resistant than Dioxazine Purple, and combined with Naples Yellow Light shows just how diverse this violet can be. Find them online here or in selected stores today. www.eckersleys.com.au/sale/painting?brand=96989 Derivan #DerivanMatisse #lineblend #AustralianRedViolet #NaplesYellowLight on #Canvas primed with Turquoise Matisse Background *** Chemical Description: Quinacridone Pigment Number: PV19 Lightfastness Rating: ASTM I Pigment Opacity: Transparent Paint Opacity: Semi-Transparent Series 6 Derivan
