Every element of our watercolours has been rigorously tested and refined. From selecting the highest quality gum arabic and distilling our own water to choosing vegetable glycerin for ethical reasons and optimising the preservative for longevity, we’ve left no detail unchecked. Extensive research into UV resistance, pigment sourcing, and consulting directly with manufacturers has allowed us to create colours that are both rich and durable. We’ve even tested how the paint behaves in pans and on palettes to prevent cracking and ensure easy reactivation with a damp brush.
Our tubes are designed for ease of use, with attention to minimising any paint spurting and ensuring smooth viscosity for easy transfer to the brush tip. The caps offer a classic, user-friendly design, and our labels are carefully crafted in-house for clarity, making it simple for artists to quickly identify colours in their collection.
Every detail of Jackman’s Art Materials is artist-driven, guided by the vision of our founder and chemist, Marc Jackman. “The process of getting paint from the tube to the palette, or rewetting paint, should be seamless, allowing creativity to flow uninterrupted. I know from personal experience that even the smallest disruption can break the creative momentum. That’s why we carefully refine every aspect of our products and will continue to do so.”
