COLOUR COLLECTION No.5 Plain English knows a thing or two about time travel. For this range of paints, we step through an 18th century portal and go for a walk in the park, hello sky! hello trees! Eight colours all about the things we see along the way – bosky meadows, high walled backyards and mossy tracks, curtained doorways, gloss painted passages and washing lines. This collection was put together and developed by Sue Skeen and Katie Fontana.

A new colour collection with it’s origins in old-English verdure tapestries, faded in time. Colours found in the threads depicting wooded landscapes and country scenes – a gentle yet curious collection.

43. CARBOLIC

Scrubbed - a block of green carbolic soap, a stiff brush and plenty of elbow grease.

44. COARSE CLOTH

Un-dyed hemp or a sort of lumpy porridge colour.

45. SHRUBBERY

Dense, leafy and perfect for assignations

46. COLD HANDS

Forgotten your mittens?

47. DOG-EARED

Things we love a lot - positively antique, in a good way

48. WELL RUBBED

Like a prize conker - or something else familiar in the hand all burnished and glossy.

49. DRABBLED

Off the beaten track - the green you find in damp muddy places.

50. SPLASH IN A BUCKET

Fill a metal bucket with water - look at the sky reflected in it.
