Fabulous mists in a spray bottle. The colours are simply glorious when sprayed over surfaces and once the mist is dried, a luminous hidden colour seems to 'magically' appear.
Moon Shadow Mist is based on an Old World walnut stain or ink formula which was well known during the artist Van Dyke's lifetime. It was largely forgotten with the advent of synthetic colours. However this beautiful sepia formula has been rejuvenated by adding glowing, hidden colour which glimmers when the ink dries giving a rich sumptuous effect It is ideal for 'instant aging' with dazzling hidden colour.
