Description

Create Stunning Tempera Art

Rublev Colours Tempera Ground is the artist’s choice for establishing an impeccable base for tempera painting. Whether you’re working with egg, casein, or collagen tempera paints, this high-quality ground provides an absorbent surface that perfectly accommodates your artistic needs. When you choose to buy online, you unlock the potential to elevate your artwork to professional levels.

Superior Absorbency for Enhanced Performance

The unique formulation of the Rublev Colours Tempera Ground incorporates a polymer emulsion of vinyl acetate-ethylene, combined with a high pigment volume concentration of titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate, and wollastonite. This ensures that the surface remains remarkably absorbent, allowing for excellent paint adhesion and blending. Artists can confidently apply multiple thin layers, gradually building up to the desired thickness without the worry of cracking—a critical advantage when you want your tempera paintings to last.

Perfect Surface Preparation Techniques

One of the outstanding features of the Rublev Colours Tempera Ground is its ease of sanding. Once thoroughly dried, artists can sand the surface, starting with coarser grit sandpapers, progressively moving to finer grits. Both wet and dry sanding techniques can be utilized, with wet sanding providing less airborne dust and a smoother finish. This detail-oriented preparation ensures that your tempera art can shine with precision and clarity.

Tint to Your Heart’s Content

This versatile ground can also be tinted up to 20% with Rublev Colours Aqueous Dispersion colors. Customization is key in artistic expression, and the ability to create your own hues allows you to modify the Tempera Ground to suit your personal style. Just be mindful that higher levels of pigment dispersions may affect the sandability and absorbency of the ground.

Expert Guidance for Optimal Usage

When using the Rublev Colours Tempera Ground, it’s essential to apply it properly to maximize its benefits. Concentrate on rigid substrates such as hardboard, wood, or metal panels to prevent cracking associated with flexible materials. Always perform adhesion tests on non-absorbent surfaces and ensure you’re applying at least four thin layers to achieve the best results for your artistic projects.
