I know a lot of you are struggling to get the right black for your project so here’s a little video where I look at the different blacks. Ultra matte light absorbing super blacks like Black 2.0 and 3.0 and other more classic acrylics like Windsor & Newton and our Raven black. I tried them out on wood, plastic, paper and metal to see how they did. Hopefully this will help you choose the right black for your own work!

If you’d like to see more work made using our paints do check out Instagram for some inspiration:

And if you’d like some Black 2.0, Black 3.0 or Raven then you can get those here:

Hopefully that’s useful :)

Much love,
