A Japanese watercolour known for an extensive colour selection, Holbein produces several unique and very popular colours including Opera (a lovely pink hue) and Shadow Green (a black pigment with a green undertone). Made without the wetting agent ox gall that most other companies add to their water paints, Holbein is a slightly "'slower" paint. 5 & 15ml tubes. For the past 100 years Holbein color laboratories have developed and produced its moist transparent watercolor as an industry leader in brush handling qualities, light fastness, physical permanence, color vigor and a full range palette that retains its clean, crisp and brilliant characteristics.Arranged within the primary red, yellow and blue groups, and augmented compatibly by earthen and green groups necessary to accurately reproduce images of the world around us, Holbein has produced exceptional colors, each conceptually intended to enhance the artist's ability to improve the results achieved for specific subject matter.

The Story of Holbein

In 1962 Peter Hopper assumed the Presidency of Hughes-Owens Ltd., a large Canadian company involved in engineering, drafting & art materials distribution. Hopper, who had a passion for painting & drawing as a young man, was drawn to the artists’ materials industry by this zeal for fine arts. The company prospered under his direction & further fostered his passion & love for the art material trade.

During one of his many business trips abroad, Peter met Mr. Thoru Yoshimura, President & Chairman of Holbein Art Materials from Osaka, Japan. At this time, Holbein was a well established & respected manufacturer of artists’ supplies in Japan, but was not well represented in America. Peter was so impressed with the quality of the Holbein product line that in 1977 he left Hughes-Owens & started Hopper-Koch the exclusive North American distributor of all Holbein Products.

The company changed its name to HK Holbein in 1980 to more closely identify the company with its primary product line. Peter’s wife, Frances, along with Barbara Mackay, Vice President of HK Holbein Canada & Danny Arseneault, Canadian National Sales Manager were essential in helping Peter establish Holbein as a prominent line in North America.

Today, the Hopper family continues its dedication to providing the American artist with the finest in Japanese color & supplies. Two of Peter’s sons, Douglas (President) & Timothy (Executive Vice President), run HK Holbein & maintain the continued close ties with Osaka, while Peter remains active as the Chairman of HK Holbein.

Wet Paint stocks the full range of Holbein’s artists’ oil color, artists’ watercolor paint, Irodori artists’ watercolor, Duo water soluble oil color, Acryla gouache, oil & soft pastels & a number of other fine accessories.
