Matisse Structure Acrylic – Carbon Black (Series 1, 250 ml) is a deeply rich, velvety matte black pigment that brings dramatic contrast, outlining precision, and tonal strength to your artwork. Perfect for underpainting, outlines, shadow depth, and expressive abstract details, this versatile black is housed in a 250 ml resealable plastic jar—ideal for both studio and field use.
Part of Matisse’s professional Structure range, Carbon Black offers a heavy-body, buttery consistency that retains brush and palette knife texture beautifully. As a Series 1 pigment, it delivers high opacity and solid coverage while providing excellent value. Lightfast and archival-rated, it integrates seamlessly with Matisse’s full range of mediums including Flow, Fluid, Ink, Impasto Medium, and Painting Medium—ensuring consistency across different techniques and layering.
Use it straight from the jar for bold strokes or combine with Impasto Medium for structured layering or Painting Medium for softer blending, while maintaining deep tonal integrity and pigment intensity.
