It has a texture and matt finish to it, and as it dries permanent it allows you to add veils of colour in a way that other acrylic gouache doesn't. The range of colours is superb, lots of pale shades too, and all mix down well. (Posted on 19/03/2017)

Autumn is often considered the most beautiful season in Japan. Reds of all shades cover the hills and valleys throughout the country. What’s more, the country’s rice is harvested, filling the bowls of citizens (and the wallets of farmers). Harvest season brings with it certain religious celebrations, as well as the traditional browns and reds that result from the end of Japan’s blazing hot summers. You won’t want to miss the momiji red leaves (like miniature maple leaves) that have made cities like Kyoto and Hiroshima hugely popular tourist attractions during the autumn months. Now, imagine spring. Flowers blooming, the small, light green leaves of the blossoming cherry and plum trees filling in the gaps between the beautiful white, pink, and purple flower petals. Marigolds and willows popping up in between balance out this Japanese spring palette. Pink:Pink is the color of cherry blossoms, which are a symbol of spring and new beginnings. It is also associated with femininity and youth.

The focal point of the Japanese national flag, red (赤い) symbolizes authority, strength and prosperity. This is why it is especially symbolic when paired with white.

The traditional colors of Japan trace their historical origins to the Twelve Level Cap and Rank System which was established in 603 by Prince Shōtoku and based on the five Chinese elements. In this system, rank and social hierarchy were displayed and determined by certain colors. Colors known as kinjiki ( 禁色, " forbidden colors") were strictly reserved for the robes of the highest ranking government officials; for example, the color ōtan (orange) was used as the color for the robes of kuge and use by any other lower rank was prohibited. Colors known as yurushiiro ( 許し色, "permissible colors") were permitted for use by the common people.

The same can be seen in other basic color wheels. Kuro (くろ) and shiro (しろ) are used to describe things that are dark and light — cool and warm. The word あか covers a spectrum of dark red, orange and yellow, with lighter yellow colors grouped to しろ. Ki (黄) paints in shades of yellow, gold and lighter brown. Murasaki (むらさき) was once a name of a plant but eventually became a color name for purple, too.
