GOLDEN Introduces High Flow Marker Set
The new High Flow Marker Set includes 5 colors plus 3 empty markers, providing an ideal way for artists to discover how easy it is to use refillable markers with High Flow Acrylics. Many fine artists have never considered the possibilities of using permanent acrylics in tools, such as markers or pens. This set makes it convenient and easy to give this delivery method a try. Once they try it they’re hooked! The three markers included in the set offer artists the opportunity to try a variety of sizes, from a fine tip to a wider stroke. 1 mm, 2 mm and 15 mm tip sizes, each with its own unique quality, perfect for signatures, fine line detail, or filling in larger areas with more precision. The five, 1 oz. colors offer variety as well:
- Iridescent Pearl (Fine) and Fluorescent Pink are unique, expressive colors, not found in many ink lines.
- Indigo (Anthraquinone), a color that illustrates the high pigment load available with High Flow Acrylics, and Green Gold are go-to colors for many artists.
- Transparent Dioxazine Purple is a bold color from the offering of ten Transparent colors available in High Flow. None of these colors are included in the other two High Flow Sets.
The High Flow Marker Set is accompanied by a pamphlet that provides instructions on how to fill the markers and includes information about the other High Flow colors available in the line. The High Flow Marker Set is available individually (#GD959-0) or as a 6 set display (#GD960-0) for placement in the drawing aisle, front counter, on an end-cap, or alongside canvas and pads for inspiration and trial.

NEW! Williamsburg Safflower Colors!
Williamsburg introduces a series of Whites and Transparent Colors milled in Safflower Oil, offering artists more options in their artwork. These 13 colors will retain their brilliance and clarity for a much longer period of time than their Linseed Oil versions. They are ideal for passages of white and glazing in the top layers of a painting. With this introduction comes one unique color not found in the existing line, Porcelain White, a series 4 color made from PW 5, Lithopone, which offers a less brittle semi-transparent alternative for Zinc White. The colors will be supported with a new three-color sample set for Safflower colors (M626110), containing Safflower Titanium White, Ultramarine Blue and Ultramarine Pink.
