DRYING TIME:

DYNA:

Studio Acrylics "Dyna" colours are obtained from pigments which render effects generally referred to as "pearlescent" effects.

The principle behind this is that these pigments are composed fomr layers of different materials, each having their own refractive index.

The base of such pigments often consists of mica, silicon dioxide or aluminium oxide onto which successive layers of other material are deposited. Titanium dioxide is often found here.

The effect provided by these pigments is achieved by a play of reflections/successive transmissions.  The layers having each their own refractive index will each transmit a different portion of light and reflect another. They will consequently react by decomposing and recomposing incident light depending on their composition.

Applications

Studio Acrylics is available in two viscosities to meet the requirements of modern artistic expression.

  • The High Viscosity Studio Acrylics has a thick consistency particularly suited to work in dimension. It still holds the strokes of the brush or spatula and when used pure or with acrylic mediums or Studio auxiliaries, it will still allow for expanding the creative possibilities.
  • The Fluid Studio Acrylics is an acrylic liquid consistency recommended for application with a brush, especially for fine and regular brush strokes. Used pure or with acrylic mediums or Studio auxiliaries, it allows to obtain glazes and watercolour effects.
  • In the end, the colours perceived, when observing an artwork displayingStudio Acrylics Dyna colours, will strongly depend on the type of effect pigment contained in the colours used, of the associations with classic pigments, but also of the nature of the incident light and of the angle from which the artwork is observed.
