Paints & Medium

I tend to mainly use Golden Heavy Body Acrylics or Golden Fluid Acrylics.
I also use some Liquitex paints. They are slightly cheaper but in my opinion - with the exception of Hookers Green Deep, all the pigments are far superior in the Golden brand.
When it comes to white (and I use a lot of white!) I go for the Pebeo brand listed below as it is a LOT cheaper than the Golden white and is perfect for mixing with colours.

I purchase paints from Jacksons Art

Canvas

I purchases my canvasses from Jacksons Art. I tend to go for deep stretch ones 1m x 1m or 1.2m x 1m.
