Black 2.0 is a superflat, light-eating black that goes on almost anything, does what you need it to do, and is just a really lovely paint to paint with.
It dilutes into a drawing ink. It primes before Black 4.0. It goes into an airbrush. It sticks to things it has no business sticking to and smells like black cherry.
Thousands of artists helped make this. This was the first all in one super-matte-black paint. Their work, their feedback, their obsession with getting it right and it's so good that we will keep offering it.
"It is important to note: this is not the blackest black in the world. It is however a better black than the blackest black in the world, as it is actually usable by artists."
How to use it
Nothing complicated. Use it like a paint. Brush, roller, or thin with water to spray. Two coats on porous surfaces, primed first with PVA. Thin further to create ink-like flows or dyes with little colour loss. Share what you make with #ShareTheBlack.
The void is ready. What you put in it is up to you.
