On Location at Schmincke | Jackson's Art

Описание: Tucked away in an unassuming trading estate in Erkrath, Dusseldorf, lies the operations of one of the world’s most important manufacturers of artist’s colours; Schmincke. Founded over 140 years ago by chemists Hermann Schmincke and Josef Horadam, Schmincke started purely as a supplier of Old Master natural resin oil paints. Today it is a global brand, offering a vast array of high quality professional oil, acrylic, watercolour, pastel and printmaking colours and mediums.

We travelled to Germany to visit the Schmincke factory, where paint experts work to produce Mussini Resin Oil Colours, Horadam Watercolour, Primacryl Acrylics, and so much more.
