The Wall 4 years, 3 months agoHere’s a neat little article from the Metropolitan Museum of Art on conservation of Disney animation cels. Gouache and watercolour would be used by artists on the celluloid and while Winsor & Newton is not specifically mentioned, I’m thinking that some of the cels from 1937, referenced in the article might have been painted with the Designers Gouache range introduced that year.

The Wall 4 years, 3 months agoWe are so excited to share more of the story of the WN x The Drawing Factory partnership!
Working in collaboration with the French team, who organized this amazing relationship for Winsor & Newton in Paris, we expanded our support of young and emerging artists in a unique residency. Beginning in March 2021, The Drawing Factory transformed a hotel awaiting renovation in the 17th arrondissement into a hive of artists studios where 33 artists were in residence for 6 months. During this time, we put our community-building ethos into action with workshops for the artists and ongoing materials support, which allowed the artists to experiment freely – they all said this freedom was a huge boost for their development.
There, we met several of the artists and had the opportunity to hear firsthand how the residency helped their practice and how crucial the time was because it allowed them to develop a network with the other artists. While this was a graphic arts residency, the artists had fine art practices based in drawing materials and it was fascinating to see the variety of work that was being made! Every surface of the studios, from the ceiling to the walls and the floor, was used as a surface for drawing.
Several films are coming out, the first one is on our site (https://www.winsornewton.com/na/articles/art-techniques/winsor-newton-x-the-drawing-factory/), and the others will be rolling out in the coming weeks!

Our sustainability agenda for the W&N brand includes people based initiatives as well as planet. Anything we can do through our partnerships with organisations, institutions and other brands that helps sustain and support artists in the community counts towards these efforts. This initiative, orchestrated by Rebecca and organised by the French team kicks the community theme in our brand communications for 2022 off really well in this regard – as it gave us the opportunity to support young and emerging artists as they look to network and develop their careers. We have more to come like this across the year – watch this space!…

I once ran some training courses for writing creatives and Ad guys with an amazing writer and trainer who said that everyone should be born with a limited number of exclamation marks and once you had run out you couldn’t have any more! I would have run out long ago. She was right that they are overused… (I really wanted to put another one there).…

The Wall 4 years, 3 months agoDEI council news: In seeking to hire new TFAC artists I am connected with the New York University recruitment center. I was very interested to learn from their recent email that they host an equity & inclusion recruitment event. This was something that I was unaware which shows me that the more you become involved in something the more you learn and the more you become aware of things that might have otherwise gone unnoticed, hence the importance of our Colart DEI Councils.
Here is a link from NYU that shares why diversity in the workplace is important: https://www.nyu.edu/students/student-information-and-resources/career-development-and-jobs/employers/recruit-diverse-talent-at-nyu.html?lor=8&utm_source=mass_mailer&utm_medium=email&utm_content=1009033&utm_campaign=uni_targeted_emails
