New Product – Silverpoint / Drawing Ground
There is a new addition to the GOLDEN Gessos & Grounds product category.  As the time honored art form of metal point drawing experiences a resurgence, Golden Artist Colors has responded to the requests of practicing artists by introducing Silverpoint / Drawing Ground. Metal point drawing offers the ability for artists to achieve lasting, exquisitely detailed lines that won’t smudge. Silverpoint / Drawing Ground is permanent, lightfast and more flexible over time than traditional preparations. Developed for easy application, it has a very fluid consistency that will level as it dries. Go to Drawing Ground Info for more details.

Two recent articles, one in The Artist’s Magazine and one in American Artist Drawing Magazine, featured this product. To learn more about Silverpoint’s link to ancient art materials history, look for these issues:
