Arles- Annie Sloan Chalk Paint
Chalk paint was developed by Annie Sloan in 1990. It is a versatile, easy to use furniture paint.
There's no need to sand or prime, just dip in your brush and away you go.
Chalk Paint is suitable for painting a smooth, one colour finish as well as a range of decorative paint techniques.
The colours are designed to work together and can be mixed to create an unlimited palette making it a truly versatile paint. Unlike other paints the majority of the colours contain no black or fillers which create muddy colours when mixed together.
COLOUR
A rich, deep yellow Chalk Paint™ colour.
It was inspired by the town of Arles in the south of France where a wide range of earthy yellow ochres are dug straight from the ground. It’s a natural rustic colour as well as a modern colour.
