Wallace Seymour Liquid Graphite

A water-resoluble graphite that dries to a matt, velvet finish. It can be applied to art paper and can be diluted with water for subtle washes. When dry the surface sheen is similar to graphite powder. The binder used bonds the graphite to the painting surface, without creating any gloss.

There are four different colours of Wallace Seymour Liquid Graphite available in 50ml or 125ml.

The graphite can be used in a number of innovative ways with ither media such as charcoal, pastel, water based inks etc.

It can be can be applied with brushes, palette knives, spatulas, etc., and used neat or diluted. It may also be mixed with acrylic paint and/or acrylic mediums to create for even more versatile effects.
