This Liquid White Base Coat from Bob Ross is one of three base coats essential for the wet-on-wet technique made so popular by Bob Ross on his Joy of Painting show. These base coats of liquid white, black or clear help to actually blend and mix the paints right onto the canvas instead of arduously working it yourself on the palette which will take much longer. This liquid white, black and clear is also helpful as a way to thin your colours when applying them over thicker paints. A thin paint sticking to a thick paint is the core idea behind the entire wet-on-wet technique made so famous by Bob Ros

“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”

“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”
– Graham
“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
