Jackman's Art Materials

Our Story

Handmade in the UK
since 2019.


Founded in November 2019, Jackman's Art Materials was established with a singular vision: to create the finest handmade supplies that elevate the artistic experience.

Our Journey

Marc Jackman, our Founder and Chief Chemist, was raised within the art materials industry, inspired by his father's lifelong dedication to the craft. After years spent as an accountant and business analyst, Marc returned to his roots — combining his analytical expertise with a deep-seated passion for colour chemistry.

Today, Jackman's is known for premium watercolours, Traditional Indian Drawing Inks, and professional acrylics. Every product is a result of relentless scientific curiosity and traditional craftsmanship.

At Jackman's, our laboratory is constantly innovating, developing new materials designed to inspire creativity in every artist — from the hobbyist to the professional.
