Lascaux Colours

We are pleased to now stock at Jackson’s the premium paint range Lascaux from Switzerland. The world renowned artist materials they produce include studio and artists acrylics and mediums, the unusual Sirius watercolours based on a 5-primary colour system, gouache and printmaking tusches (for painting positives to expose photo plates and screens with). I have been looking forward to trying the liquid brush cleaner that I have heard such good things about. They also do an archival multi-purpose fixative, adhesive, canvas primers and acrylic sizing, acrylic modelling paste, varnishes, UV protection sprays, and screenprinting screen filler.

Lascaux gouache
Acrylic gouache is not normal gouache. It can be worked on top of without smearing. It is an opaque, matte finish, water-soluble, fluid acrylic that is usually water resistant (not waterproof) when dry. Being opaque and drying to a matte finish is like traditional gouache, being water resistant when dry and adhering well to many surfaces is like acrylic. It uses an acrylic polymer binder. Lascaux is a variation: it is not as water resistant when dry but can be painted over without smearing.

  1. I use Lascaux acrylic for mural painting. Is the acrylic gouache compatible?
    I also teach art and I order quite large amounts of materials over a year.
    Is there artist discount? I am looking at over £100 of materials just for the mural.

    Thank you,

      Hi Susan
      I don’t think the gouache would be suitable for outdoors. It is not a durable as acrylic. And Lascaux has a particular kind that is somewhat re-soluble in water, compared to other acrylic gouaches.
      I will email you about our discount policy.
