Interpreting the Colour Wheel: Unlock the secrets of colour with the colour wheel! 🎨
This is the first in a series of posts on colour wheels we’ll be uploading over the coming weeks. Read on to understand the basics of interpreting your colour wheel.

Primary Colours: Red, yellow, blue - the building blocks.
Secondary Colours: Mixed primaries (e.g., red + yellow = orange).
Complementary Colours: Opposites attract (e.g., blue & orange) for vibrant contrast.
Analogous Colours: Neighbours (e.g., blue, blue-green, green) create harmony.
Triadic Colours: Equally spaced trio (e.g., red, yellow, blue) for balanced vibrancy.

If you have any questions about the colour wheel, leave them in the comments below and we’ll answer them for you!

Cadmium is regarded as the rockstar of paint pigments. It provides bold and bright colours, perfect for making your art stand out! But, just like some rockstars, it can be a little bit...heavy metal.
That's why some artists choose cadmium-free paints. They give you that same eye-catching colour, but without the potential health risks.
Leave a comment below if you’ve tried Cadmium-Free paint before, and let us know what you thought!

Did you know Winsor & Newton Drawing Inks are water resistant? (Except for Liquid Indian Ink, Gold, and Silver.) However, coloured inks, made from dyes, can bleed with washes; make sure you test colors before use for best results!

Decode your paints! Most tube labels reveal more than just color names. This handy diagram made by Winsor and Newton explains what each label tells you about the colour inside!

Artists rejoice! MTN's water-based spray paint is now bigger and better. The 400ml size offers top performance, smoother control, and eco-friendly benefits. Take your studio art to the next level! Find the new size in-store or on our website.

Forget bulky lamps! The Foldi Go folds, adjusts, & swivels for perfect light, anywhere. Rechargeable & portable, it brightens your creativity on the go.

One coat or ten? Paint opacity (shown by the squares on tubes!) tells you how well it hides what's underneath. A darker square = more hiding power! Now go forth and conquer your next project!

Make bold statements with Mont Marte's wide chisel tip acrylic pens! 4 colors, perfect for large areas & lettering. Works on almost any surface, indoors or out. Unleash your creativity on canvas, paper, glass, stone & more!
