Atelier Interactive Artists Acrylic Unlike traditional acrylics, all 75 of these interactive colors do not suddenly form a skin. Interactive changes the painting process, giving you plenty of time to blend and rework and more creative freedom than ever before. The patent-pending formulation allows even touch-dry paint to be reworked or ragged off to blend or reveal layers for hours. Archival quality and lightfast, the intense colors dry to a satin-like finish without a plastic look or feel and with minimal color shift. Comes in 75 colors and is available in 80ml tubes, 250ml jars and selected colors in 1 Litre jars.

ATELIER Mediums Atelier Mediums MAKING ACRYLICS VERSATILE The choice of the correct medium for the particular style and technique of an artist can be critically important to their creative development. There are very simple ways of gaining control over the painting process, which do not involve learning new techniques: there are procedures for sealing against moisture loss, maintaining moist humid conditions while working and using final varnishes to protect the completed art work. We would like to introduce a new simplified system of acrylic painting designed to simplify painting with acrylics. The following three processes are outlined below: 1. Ground Preparations 2. Mediums & Additives 3. Varnishes s with the Interactive tick are especially beneficial for use with Atelier Interactive. Ground Preparations Grounds are products used to prepare a surface for acrylic painting. Effective grounds should have good adhesion to the painting surface, particularly for canvas boards. They should be flexible, have suitable tooth for overpainting and create a good sealing barrier between the painting surface and subsequent layers of paint. Gesso Primer A flexible acrylic ground with a high grit content. Designed to provide a stable white surface on which to paint. Atelier Gesso may be used directly from the container for all over thick textural effects. 250ml Jar 4802 500ml Jar 4832 1 Litre Jar 4852 1 Gallon Bucket 4882 Liquid Gesso Primer A thinner consistency than Gesso Primer, which spreads more easily for a smoother painting surface. 250ml Jar 4980 500ml Jar 4981 1 Litre Jar 4982 1 Gallon Bucket 4983 Binder Medium A waterbased acrylic emulsion, which can be used straight from the bottle or thinned with water 1:1 to seal most surfaces. Atelier Binder Medium can be used as a sizing on canvas or cotton duck to seal the surface and prevent absorption of paint into the fabric. 250ml Bottle 4800 1 Litre Bottle 48000 Mediums & Additives Painting Mediums are used with acrylic paint to manipulate the consistency and properties of paint for an infinite variety of applications and techniques. Clear Painting Medium Mid-Viscosity The most popular medium in acrylic painting. It is used with the paint to dilute the viscosity and blend colors without losing pigment intensity. This medium allows paint to spread over a surface for more blendable gradations of color and fast glazing techniques. Especially useful for working wet-in-dry techniques. 250ml Bottle 4814 500ml Bottle 4836 1 Litre Bottle 4973 1 Gallon Bottle 4886 16
ATELIER Mediums Mediums & Additives (continued) Painting Mediums are used with acrylic paint to manipulate the consistency and properties of paint for an infinite variety of applications and techniques. Impasto Gel A thick, fast drying, waterbased, acrylic gel designed to exaggerate structure and sharpen textural edges of the paint in acrylic painting. Impasto Gel also increases the gloss level of the paint and can also be used as an adhesive to bond other materials to the painting. 250ml Jar 4804 500ml Jar 4834 1 Gallon Bucket 4884 Modelling Compound A very thick, textural paste used for exaggerated structure. Modelling Compound has the same flexibility as Atelier paints and is used to create strong textural interest at any stage in a painting s process. Dries white. Can be mixed with paint to produce a colored ground or painted over once dry. 250ml Jar 4805 500ml Jar 4835 1 Litre Jar 4978 1 Gallon Bucket 4885 Unlocking Formula Allows artists to re-open a paint layer even after it is touch-dry. Once the paint is re-opened, new paint can be blended back in, existing paint edges can be feathered or whole sections can be removed with a rag. Use with the Fine Mist Water Sprayer. 250ml Bottle 4929 1 Litre Bottle 4972 Gallon Bottle 4895 Slow Medium Slows down the drying time when added to Interactive Acrylic paint. Small amounts will produce a smooth, mid-viscosity paint, useful for glazing and other techniques requiring a longer working time. Paint can be reworked up to 2 days after drying. 250ml Bottle 4927 1 Litre Bottle 4970 1 Gallon Bottle 4893 17 Fast Medium/Fixer Designed to speed the Interactive Acrylic painting process by quickly fixing a paint layer. Use to dilute paint for glazing and thin painting techniques, or use unpigmented for reinforcing a tender paint layer. 250ml Bottle 4928 1 Litre Bottle 4969 1 Gallon Bottle 4892 Thick Slow Medium Works in the same way as the original more liquid Slow Medium, but with its more paint like consistency, it can be used for spreading and diluting paint without making it thin or runny. In choosing between the two versions now available, this thick version may be preferred by artists who find they tend to over use the water sprayer because this thick medium can absorb more water without becoming runny. 250ml Bottle 4931 1 Litre Bottle 4971 1 Gallon Bottle 4894
ATELIER Mediums Regular Gel (Matte & Gloss) An acrylic gel with a smooth buttery consistency. Use as a paint extender to adjust gloss and transparency without altering consistency.

General purpose mid-viscosity medium that adds translucency and satin sheen. Ideal for glazing and extending colors. Promotes flow and leveling.

It can be used as a very strong adhesive for bonding heavy objects.
