Paint manufacturer Holbein has released a new product called ``Luminous Color.''、I tried using it。Since it's called Luminous, I thought it would be a fluorescent color.、In fact, it even appears on Holbein's homepage.。Fluorescent color is watercolor、acrylic、Already used in oil paints, etc.、I also have some acrylic paints.、This is the first time I used watercolors.。I was shocked by color for the first time in a while.。Amazing coloring、In fact, I was overwhelmed by the brilliance.。
of the picture above、The part to the right of the curtain pillar mainly uses luminous colors.、The one on the left is mostly painted with traditional watercolors.、I took a photo with the camera in the sun.。Rather than bright、It's like it's glowing by itself。It's bright outside the window、Or rather、Rather, it looks like it's jumping out at me from the window.。The colors are strong (high saturation)。The red on the table、Colors that could not be achieved with conventional watercolors。If you use this、The expression will definitely change、I think my way of thinking will change。
The picture below is、I tried scanning it。Since the conditions for scanning and camera shooting are different, it is not possible to make a general comparison.、You can see that the luminous color part is extremely faded (luminous color is also used a little on the table on the left)。Especially the yellow color has completely disappeared.。
This is a big problem。if、I think scanned images are important when artists print and publish their own works.、This paint cannot be used for that purpose (but、There is no problem as long as you take pictures with a normal camera.)。
moreover、When creating regular paintings、It is not uncommon for it to take many years from production to publication.。On the contrary, an overwhelming number of works remain in storage for a long time.。The problem then is "light resistance"。How well does color preserve light?、This person is building his "own" snowboard "road"。A total of 12 luminous colors are available.、All of them have low light resistance.。Level at which color changes easily。for many painters、I think that's what I'm worried about。
however、(Not saved) One-time exhibition、Posters and illustrations that aim to catch the eye、For pop etc.、There is no doubt that it will be a powerful weapon。Recommended for such works。
