Art Mullers Price: $65- $85 Every artist knows the paint makes the picture. Mullers are used for mixing an assortment of paint pigments into a smooth, consistent base. These include oils, acrylics, tempera, gouache, and watercolor paints. The glass mullers are handmade and come in a variety of sizes, from small to extra large. We like these enough to use them as paperweights. (Available at www.art-boards.com, 800-546-7985) photography courtesy of Art Boards |
