Rex Art Presents the new DR Acrylic from Daler Rowney

One of the features we really like about the DR Gesso, and DR line in general is that they are manufactured in the UK just like all the other Daler Rowney paints. Many other manufacturers cut the costs of their gessos by producing them in less quality focused manufacturing locations, and we have found most of these products to be of lessor quality and consistency. But best of all, and what you always expect from Rex, is our commitment to save you money, and the new DR gesso is extremely affordable. It is available in a one liter size (33.8 oz), currently on sale for $8.95, and also a 1 gallon size (128oz), currently on sale for only $21.95. When compared to similar products from other manufacturers it is far more affordably priced and generally 30% to 50% lower in price! Go to our main Gesso page and compare for yourself! We are positive that you are going to really appreciate the value and quality of the new DR Gesso, and we would love to hear about your experiences with this new fantastic product from Daler Rowney. Please post your comments here, or write a review! As always our family at Rex thanks you for your support!

Rex Art Weclomes Langton Watercolor Papers from Daler Rowney

At Rex Art we are always looking for great new products from our manufacturers, and Daler Rowney has launched a premier watercolor paper line called Langton. We partnered with Daler Rowney to offer this fabulous paper to our customers first, and it is now available from us.

Langton watercolor paper is a professional line of paper made with 100% cotton pulp of the highest quality, and is acid free. It is traditionally made on a cylinder mould machine, and features a gelatinized surface for strength and resilience. Currently, it is available in pads, blocks, and 10 packs of 22″ x 30″ sheets with a weight of 140 lbs / 300 gsm. We also offer a beautiful Langton watercolor sketchbook with 200 lb paper, and a side spiral binding, which would make a great on the go watercolor substrate!

The Langton Prestige Watercolor Spiral Pad

What was really surprising to us was the value of the Langton watercolor papers. The Langton is of equal or better quality than a leading national brand like Arches or Fabriano, but is very affordable. For instance, currently we offer the 10 packs of the 22″ x 30″ paper for $35.48 per package, or only $3.54 per sheet! That is very affordable for a watercolor paper of that size, and quality. Definitely worth a try.
