Sennelier Aquarelle Extra Fine - Travel Set
Ceramic Collection Times
CERAMICS COLLECTIONS:
Paint & Go: Your bisque painted ceramics should be ready to collect within 6 weeks but we will contact when they are ready for collection.
Creating Art from clay: It can take approximately 3 months to get through this process as everything needs to be carefully dried to reduce risk of exploding/damage.
There is a huge amount of post event production that you don’t see to finish your ceramic Artwork which is why it can seem like a long time.
**It would be really helpful if you add our email to your contacts so that when we send out the collection email (probably towards the end of the month), you ought to receive it - sometimes they end up in spam!
We will include a notice on social media once collections dates have been arranged.
Arrival Times
We kindly request that you arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before the event begins. This allows us the necessary time to finalise preparations and ensure that the studio is ready for your arrival. Your cooperation and understanding are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
What we love!
Highlights
About Sennelier L'Aquarelle Extra Fine
Behind the brand: A watercolor tailored to the needs of today's artists.
Sennelier L'Aquarelle Extra Fine was created with Artists, for Artists.
Consulting with a range of artists and watercolourists from all over the world, a panel of professional painters carried out 'blind' tests on a number of formulations.
The result was a custom formula to meet demanding requirements and demonstrating the following qualities, a watercolour which is luminous, brilliant and intense. L'Aquarelle Sennelier fulfils their every wish.
A honey-based watercolour
Honey has many virtues: a symbol of light and sun, an emblem of poetry and science and has been used since Ancient times as a remedy for dry skin and to help heal wounds. This nectar is used in L'Aquarelle Sennelier not only as a preservative but as an additive giving incomparable brilliance and smoothness to the paint. Always striving for excellence, Sennelier has reworked its watercolor formula with increasing the amount of Honey in the paint to reinforce the longevity of the colors, their radiance and luminosity.
The roots of Sennelier watercolours are to be found in the Impressionist school. At that time, painters drew their inspiration from nature and set out to reproduce natural light.
Watercolour technique offered spontaneity, lightness of touch, fluidity and transparency allowing a quick translation of a particular light, vibration or shape. Paul Cézanne, for instance, produced forty or so watercolours of the Mont Sainte Victoire in Provence.
Earlier on in England and on the Normandy coast in France, William Turner had turned painting in watercolours as an art form in its own right and had even managed to produce genuine masterpieces. Since then watercolors have become an established part of the history of painting. Artists love them because of their radiance and their spontaneity. It is such a pleasure when the painter plays with the light of the paper and the brightness of fleeting, intense pigments as they glisten, come together and swirl around under his brush producing a whole host of different effects.
