The Chromacolour Difference

Jan Martin McGuire - Wildlife Masterclass

We are thrilled to announce that the latest masterpiece from Jan Martin McGuire has arrived! Painted with her signature precision using Chromacolour, this new work is a testament to why she is widely considered one of the premier wildlife artists in the world today.

Jan’s ability to capture the raw spirit of the natural world is unparalleled, and we are honoured that our paints play a role in her creative process. You can see the full reveal and high-resolution details of her latest piece over on our Facebook Page.

"The Beauty is in the Paint"

Jan recently shared some incredibly kind words about her long-term relationship with our range. For Jan, the choice of paint isn't just about colour, it's about the reputation she has built over decades of professional work.

"I can safely say that my recognition has all come because of how beautiful Chromacolours look, and the ease in using them."

The Struggle with Substitutes

Even the world’s best artists occasionally experiment with other media, but for Jan, the experience only reinforced why she returns to Chromacolour. She noted that during a period of using other brands, the "look" she is famous for became difficult to achieve.

"This year or so has really brought that home to me, where I was having to use other brands of paint, and I struggled to get them to look the way that I wanted."

This highlights the unique "glow" and layering capabilities of Chromacolour. These are the same qualities that made our paints the industry standard for traditional animation are exactly what allow wildlife artists to achieve hyper-realistic fur, feathers, and atmospheric light.
