Acrylic Shimmer Paints

Level: Beginners
Instructor: Dee Cowell
Price:  £2.50 

The first time I used the Daler Rowney Shimmer paints I was amazed at the effects you could achieve. The shimmer paints have a metal in them called Mica and it affects light - it reflects the light and the colours are really only visible on a dark surface. These paints are fantastic for kids to use – they love them!
