The best new coloring agent for gourds!

“I LOVE the new transparent acrylics!! It’s like having the advantage of both an ink dye and an acrylic paint in one. They can be wiped on and worked with like an ink dye or you can paint them on with a paint brush and they won’t bleed. Fantastic product!!” – Carrie Dearing, Gourd Artist and Instructor

Deluxe Pack – GourdMaster™ Transparent Acrylics
- All 16 colors in the large, 1oz bottles
-30-minute instructional DVD with Carrie Dearing
- and 1 sheet of felt

Regularly $138.00 SPECIAL PRICE: Just $109.95!

Similar to acrylic paints, the new GourdMaster™ Transparent Acrylics are made using pigment rather than dye as the main carrier of color, which means the colors are much bolder and more vibrant on your gourd!

(pictured left, gourd art by Carrie Dearing, painted with Transparent Acrylics; Wild Rose and Pure White used on flowers, Leaf and Pure White used on leaves.)

Wipe them on with felt just like you would Ink Dye for a beautiful semi-transparent look that is just as fade-resistant, or apply them like an acrylic paint: Being pigment based, they are more viscous than Ink Dye so you can actually apply them with a paint brush and the color stays where you put it without bleeding!

“The best feature of the [transparent] acrylics is the INTENSITY of the colors and the ease of use. They spread just like the ink [dyes], very evenly and without STREAKS!!! They also wipe off easily with water (when still “wet”) off the gourd and are extremely FORGIVING.

“…They dry twice as fast as the ink [dyes] when using the heat tool and all sealers are compatible. Can’t thank you enough for the best coloring medium yet for gourds!! Please make more colors. P.S. Also used them by mixing them with ink [dyes] to make additional shades and new colors that worked fantastically as well. Thanks again.” 

- Dianne Connelly, Gourd Artist and Instructor

(Pictured above, gourd art by Dianne Connelly,
featuring Transparent Acrylics as the coloring agent)

 Transparent Acrylics are also extremely cost-effective! They are sold in a 1oz bottle, which is double the size of the Ink Dye bottle, for just $7.95! Or you can get the Sampler Set or the Deluxe Pack, each with all 16 colors at a discounted price!

Sampler Pack – GourdMaster™ Transparent Acrylics

 All 16 colors in 1/4 oz bottles
-30-minute instructional DVD with Carrie Dearing
- 1 full sheet of felt
