Consisting of perfectly round, heavy-gauge 3.0mm crystal-clear spheres, this dry medium provides a dramatic, fluid-like dimension that beautifully captures and magnifies ambient light across your canvas. Packaged in its raw, dry state by Derivan Matisse, it eliminates the density limits of pre-mixed texture gels, allowing you to establish bold, glass-encrusted textures on fine art paintings, structural panels, or heavy mixed-media layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\n\u003cbr\u003eHigh-Impact 3.0mm Dimensions: The larger 3.0mm spherical size delivers a distinct, cobblestone-like texture that remains prominently visible even from across a gallery room, making it perfect for bold focal features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRaw Density Customisation: Supplied entirely dry, letting you choose the exact ratio of glass spheres to your paint or gel binder—ranging from a scattered, dew-drop look to a dense, interlocking bubble-like crust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFlawless Transparency \u0026amp; Magnification: Because the solid glass beads are entirely clear, they naturally take on the colour of whatever background paint or tint they are mixed with, acting like mini magnifying lenses over your underlying artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent Media Compatibility: Blends smoothly into thick impasto mediums, structural gessoes, or heavy fluid acrylics, offering a unique tactile contrast against smooth canvas surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePreserved Light Refraction: Integrates seamlessly into the entire Matisse ecosystem. To fully preserve the natural transparency and bright light-refraction of the beads, it is highly recommended to blend them into gloss-based vehicles like MM4 Gel Medium or MM7 Poly Gloss Varnish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MATISSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48315553579246,"sku":"1MD04GLB3","price":16.49,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0422\/1704\/6167\/files\/1MD04GLB3.jpg?v=1784065320","url":"https:\/\/www.hobbyland.co.nz\/products\/derivan-matisse-glass-beads-3mm-dry-medium-40ml","provider":"Hobby Land NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
