{"product_id":"winsor-and-newton-water-colour-iridescent-medium","title":"Water Colour Iridescent Medium","description":"\u003cp\u003eWatercolor's luminous transparency meets metallic shimmer in this dual-purpose medium. Mix it directly into wet paint to create lighter, pearlescent tones, the kind of ethereal quality perfect for moonlit water, fish scales, or fairy-tale atmospheres. The iridescent particles disperse through the pigment, creating an integrated shimmer that catches light while softening the original hue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplied over dry watercolor, it behaves completely differently. This top layer adds pure metallic sheen without altering your carefully mixed colors underneath. Your composition stays intact, you're simply adding light-catching dimension where you want it. This approach works beautifully for selective highlights: the edge of a wave, architectural details, jewelry in a portrait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe effect reads as glittery sparkle rather than smooth metallic sheen, so it suits magical or decorative subjects better than strictly realistic work. Winsor \u0026amp; Newton formulates this medium to maintain watercolor's essential character while introducing effects traditional watercolor can't achieve. Use it subtly for sophisticated shimmer or build it up for dramatic, light-catching passages that transform under changing viewing angles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winsor \u0026 Newton","offers":[{"title":"75 ml","offer_id":47974358089957,"sku":"37216","price":8.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s37216.jpg?v=1770306569","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.com\/products\/winsor-and-newton-water-colour-iridescent-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
