FolkArt® Artists' Pigments™
In 1978, Priscilla Hauser, founder of the Society of Decorative Painters and Plaid author, pioneered into new territory with her Artist Polymer Acrylic Paint. While she was a bit before her time, Priscilla paved the way for FolkArt Artists' Pigments. These deep, true colors blend easily and maintain vibrancy when mixed. FolkArt Artists' Pigments have a higher pigment concentration than regular FolkArt paints and therefore have a better hide and more intense coverage. When combined with FolkArt Blending Gel, the Artists' Pigments take on the qualities of oils and produce fantastic texture. All of these qualities allow decorative painters to blend and shade to suit their individual needs.
