Matisse Studio Acrylic Paint 120ml - Potter’s Pink

Potter’s Pink (PR170 / PW6) is a Series 1 semi-transparent acrylic colour from the Matisse Studio range, offering a contemporary reinterpretation of the historical Potter’s Pink pigment. Traditionally created in 18th-century Staffordshire for ceramics, the original version also known as "tin pink" was prized by watercolourists for its granulating softness and gentle rose hue.

Matisse Studio Potter’s Pink captures the warm, muted beauty of the original while providing the smoother consistency expected in acrylics. A refined blend of Naphthol Red (PR170) and Titanium White (PW6), this version eliminates the granular texture of the historic pigment, delivering a buttery, blossom-like finish perfectly suited for modern acrylic techniques.

Key Uses:

• Soft, earthy blush ideal for atmospheric and landscape work
• Light flesh tone base for portraiture and skin highlights
• Pairs well with earth tones and cool blues for naturalistic neutrals
• Offers muted pastel tones for scenes with soft or transitional lighting

Potter’s Pink stands out as a calming counterpoint to vivid synthetic reds and pinks. Whether you’re painting skin, petals, skies, or stone, it lends a subtle warmth that is both timeless and deeply expressive.
