HIMI is here! Now comes the fun part… Picking your palette!

Choose your HIMI palette by the colours and finish you love: velvety gouache, soft shades, colour-shifting details or acrylic for glass, wood and stone. Follow the “If you like…” headings to find a set, then choose the care spray made for its paint. Prefer gouache in tubes? Mont Marte, Holbein Irodori and Reeves are here too.

If you like: Velvety, matte colour… Try this:
HIMI Jelly Gouache set of 18

Paint bold shapes with a smooth, opaque colour that dries without a glossy shine.

✦ Use the paint straight from the cup for solid colour, or add water for lighter washes.
 
If you like: Painting botanicals… Try this:
HIMI Twin-Cup Gouache set of 36

Some gardens grow best in a sketchbook.

✦ HIMI’s matte gouache gives folded petals, leafy greens and curling stems a bright, illustrative look.
 
If you like: Soft lilacs & muted greens… Try this:
HIMI Twin-Cup Gouache set of 48

This palette has the feel of a well-loved picture book.

✦ Think lilac rooftops, soft green shutters and a dusty path that disappears around the corner.
 
If you like: Colour that shifts with light… Try this:
HIMI Chameleon & Metallic Gouache Set 12

Paint that changes as the page moves!

✦ Eight chameleon gouache shades shift with the viewing angle, while four metallic shades add a foil-like glint to the page.
 
If you like: Building colour in layers… Try this:
HIMI Twin-Cup Acrylic set of 36

Acrylic makes experimentation fun!

✦ Once a layer is dry, you can paint over it. A patch of lawn can become a pond, or an empty sky can end up with a moon the size of a dinner plate.

A mixing palette and silicone sealing mat are included in the green metallic case.

 
If you like: Multimedia surfaces… Try this:
HIMI Twin-Cup Acrylic set of 48

The surface can be part of the picture.

✦ The curve of a shell gives a painted wave somewhere to break. HIMI jelly acrylic works on wood and stone too.

48 colours in 24 twin cups, with a mixing palette, a silicone sealing mat and an airtight clip-close case.

 
Now that you’ve chosen… Look after your palette!

Meet the little mists that keep HIMI paints fresh.

✦ Both sprays help keep paint cups moist and guard against mould. The gouache spray can soften dried colour, and the acrylic spray slows drying before the paint sets.
Prefer tubes?

Prefer tubes?

✦ We’ve got gouache sets for all sorts of artists and projects.

Titanium White and Lamp Black are included for mixing lighter or darker colours.

The 15ml tubes contain more of each colour than the 12ml Mont Marte and Reeves tubes.

Colours from Lemon Yellow and Brilliant Red to Leaf Green and Burnt Sienna.

Choose your paint, find the palette you want to work with, and add the care spray made for your HIMI cups.
