MATISSE FLOW FORMULA PAINTS      

Specially designed for acrylic painting techniques and folk art.

Matisse Flow Formula has all the attributes of the Structure Formula; however, it has a thinner viscosity to allow free flowing brushstrokes or use through an airbrush (with minimal dilution). This allows the paint to be used for fine brushwork with or without water dilution. This paint gives a fine flow with a low-sheen finish and good levelling.

APPLICATION:

Matisse Flow Formula is highly suited to mural work, acrylic canvas painting, theatre backdrops, geometrics, hard edge, photo realism, air-brushing etc. Fine detail brushwork, poster color and watercolor techniques can be simulated quite easily.

MEDIUMS:

Matisse Flow Formula is compatible with all Matisse Mediums. For matt velvet effects, add MM5 Matt Medium. For buttering up the paint, add MM2 Impasto Medium.

Matisse Flow Formula dries water-resistant but the addition of MM8 Spreader Medium will increase its water-sensitivity for watercolor effects. MM1 Drying Retarder does the same but also slows down drying and film formation.

ACRYLIC DESIGNERS PAINT/GOUACHE:

Matisse Flow mixed with MM5 Matt Medium is an excellent designers paint, ideal for flat areas of color and for work to be photographed.
