    ‘Full Spectrum’ The launch of Winsor & Newton x Daniel Eatock’s new short film. 

    We are very proud to share that the short film that was made by artist Daniel Eatock and director Maria Lax is now live as part of our new Winsor & Newton Galeria Acrylic campaign which launched this week. It see’s Daniel use our paints as an expression of colour and emotions, turning the process into performance. Please all watch the film on the biggest screen possible with the sound on loud for the full experience. We have had some very positive comments after sharing this on social so we hope you enjoy this as much as our audience.

    An an exclusive for the launch Creative Review have published an article which features an interview with Daniel and the film itself. This was an organic piece of press which we pitched out and did not pay for, which makes it even better. 

    Thank you to all the team for getting this great campaign live.

    Sharing a Note that Moved Me

    I wanted to take a moment to share a letter I recently received from a former Liquitex Residency Artist, George Bezani. While it was addressed to me, it’s truly meant for all of us – the Liquitex and Colart teams who bring our brand to life every day.George has just been accepted into the Mark Rothko Museum Art Residency in Latvia – a remarkable achievement. In reflecting on his journey, he credited Liquitex as a constant companion and source of inspiration in his creative process. His words are a powerful reminder of the emotional connection creatives can have with our materials, and the role we play in enabling their growth and expression. It brought tears to my eyes, and I hope it inspires you as much as it did me. We can all be proud of the part we continue to play in George’s story – and in the stories of so many artists around the world.——————————–here it is—————————–

     Dear Kim, 

    I hope this message finds you well and that life is treating you beautifully.

    I am thrilled to share that I have been accepted to the Mark Rothko Museum Art Residency in Latvia — a truly meaningful opportunity that I am preparing for with both excitement and humility. As I begin to gather my art materials and works for the journey ahead, I couldn’t help but pause and reflect on how much of this path has been made possible through the incredible support and inspiration I’ve received from Liquitex.

    Your materials have been a constant companion in my process — not just tools, but bridges toward new discoveries, experimentations, and expressions. Every time I paint, I feel deeply grateful for the quality, innovation, and spirit embedded in them. It is rare to find such a perfect synergy between artist and material, and it’s something I never take for granted.

    As I look forward to immersing myself in this residency, I carry with me immense gratitude and curiosity: to explore what new visual compositions lie hidden behind human thoughts, gestures, and perceptions, and how my technique can evolve through determined concentration and experimentation. I truly believe this residency will be a chapter of transformation, and I am excited to share glimpses of this journey with you through photos and reflections on my social channels.

    Thank you, once again, for giving artists like me the freedom and courage to dream bigger, to push boundaries, and to find beauty in unexpected places. Your support means more than words can express.

    Wishing you a joyful and peaceful fall season.

    George

    • Thank you for sharing such a wonderful and powerful message Kim. I was fortunate to chat with George a few times and LOVED seeing some of his work at the event in Brooklyn. What an exciting opportunity for George, and a credit to you and the team at Liquitex that George feels such a close bond.

    • That’s really awesome Kim. I had some lovely conversations with him during his residency and after I had commented on how much I liked a work jacket that he was wearing, a week or so later I received one in the mail. He’s not only very talented but also very kind. I’m very happy for him.

    • This is amazing – thank you for sharing Kim

    🏆 Remise du Prix Charbonnel 2025 au vernissage de l’exposition “Estampes d’ici et d’ailleurs” au Mans 🏆

     

    Samedi dernier, j’ai eu le plaisir d’assister au vernissage de l’exposition Estampes d’ici et d’ailleurs au Mans, qui célèbre la richesse et la diversité de l’estampe contemporaine, en France et au-delà de ses frontières ! 🌍

     

    🍾 Pour la première fois, Charbonnel est partenaire de l’événement, et nous sommes ravis de soutenir une exposition dans la ville du Mans, berceau de la production des encres Charbonnel.

    Dans ce cadre, j’ai eu l\’honneur de remettre le Prix Charbonnel 2025 à l’artiste Florence Jalice pour sa superbe linogravure Jeux d’eau.

     

    L’événement a également été l’occasion de rencontrer de nombreux artistes, dont Pol Autom, l’artiste d’honneur venu de Belgique. J’ai eu le plaisir d\’y croiser mon collègue Cyrille 😉, et de profiter d’un moment convivial avec l’association organisatrice Le Hangar à Papier, ainsi qu’avec Agnès Besnard, déléguée à la culture, et un public nombreux.

     

    Un beau moment de partage autour de la gravure, entre tradition et innovation, un univers dont Charbonnel est fier d’être un acteur clé !

     

    📅 L’exposition se poursuit jusqu’au 28 septembre au Centre Paul Courboulay au Mans : l’occasion d’aller découvrir Jeux d’eau et d’admirer la richesse des estampes venues « d’ici et d’ailleurs ».

     

     

    🏆 Charbonnel Prize 2025 awarded at the Estampes d’ici et d’ailleurs exhibition in Le Mans 🏆

     

    Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of attending the opening of the Estampes d’ici et d’ailleurs exhibition in Le Mans, which celebrates the richness and diversity of contemporary printmaking, in France and beyond its borders ! 🌍

     

    🍾 For the first time, Charbonnel is a partner of the event, and we are delighted to support an exhibition in Le Mans, home of our ink production.

    As part of this partnership, I had the honor of awarding the Charbonnel Prize 2025 to artist Florence Jalice for her stunning linocut Jeux d’eau.

     

    The event was an opportunity to meet many artists, including Pol Autom, the guest of honor from Belgium. I also had the pleasure of seeing my colleague Cyrille 😉 and enjoying a convivial moment with the organizing association, Le Hangar à Papier, as well as with Agnès Besnard, the city’s cultural delegate, and a large audience.

     

    A beautiful moment of sharing around printmaking, between tradition and innovation, a world in which Charbonnel is proud to play a key role !

     

    📅 The exhibition continues until September 28 at Centre Paul Courboulay: a great opportunity to discover Jeux d’eau and admire the richness of prints from “here and elsewhere”!

    • Super Marie, et une pensee pour Bruno Lebourdais qui nous avait parlé de cette asso il y a 1 an ! Comme quoi on écoute 🙂 les bonnes idées ! La concrétisation a pu avoir lieu grace a la boutique Charbonnel, puisque la responsable de cette association Le Hangar a papiers est venue nous trouver ici, pour nous présenter son projet. Cette boutique Charbonnel reste ainsi un lieu de rencontre et d’échanges avec les artistes et spécialement avec les graveurs qui sont très attachés à la marque. Bravo pour cette longue chaine 🙂

    • Tout d’abord, merci à l’équipe marketing d’avoir partagé les informations préliminaires concernant ce vernissage. Je confirme, c’était une très belle exposition où l’on retrouve la plupart des techniques d’utilisation de l’encre. L’exposition est ouverte à tous et gratuite.

      First of all, thank you to the marketing team for sharing the preliminary information about this opening. I confirm, it was a very beautiful exhibition where we find most of the techniques of using ink. The exhibition is open to all and free.

    Retour en images sur le vernissage LINEL

    Une soirée haute en couleurs autour des 3 jeunes artistes Carole Rampinetta, Nolwenn Studio et Pawm, venues présenter les sets de gouache LINEL qu’elles ont spécialement dessinés pour Lefranc Bourgeois.

    L’événement a pleinement reflété notre signature OSEZ peindre : un public jeune et engagé, mêlant étudiants, professeurs d’écoles d’art et artistes établis, venu célébrer la créativité et l’audace.

    🌈 Les sets exposés, vibrants et singuliers, ont donné le ton d’une soirée à l’image des artistes : colorée, vivante et inspirante.

    🎨 Le temps fort de la soirée ? L’atelier Linel, qui a remporté un franc succès en invitant le public à s’essayer à la gouache. Une belle mise en bouche avant de découvrir les tutos des nouveaux sets Linel et de participer aux prochains ateliers LINEL, prévus en octobre et novembre à la boutique Charbonnel !

    Restés connectés, la semaine on vous montre les photos de la Carte Blanche!

    Un immense merci aux équipes, dont l’aide, la présence et le soutien ont rendu cette soirée réussie !

     

    A look back at the LINEL exhibition opening

    A colourful evening featuring three young artists, Carole Rampinetta, Nolwenn Studio and Pawm, who presented the Gouache LINEL sets they designed especially for Lefranc Bourgeois.

    The event perfectly reflected our signature slogan, OSEZ peindre (DARE to paint): a young and engaged audience, including students, art school teachers and established artists, came together to celebrate creativity and daring.

    🌈 The vibrant and unique sets on display set the tone for an evening that reflected the artists themselves: colourful, lively and inspiring.

    🎨 The highlight of the evening? The Linel workshop, which was a huge success, inviting the audience to try their hand at gouache painting. It was a great appetiser before discovering the tutorials for the new Linel sets and participating in the upcoming LINEL workshops, scheduled for October and November at the Charbonnel boutique!

    Stay tunned, next week you will see in images, the WIP Carte Blanche and the final vitrine!

    A huge thank you to the teams, whose help, presence and support made this evening so enjoyable and possible.
