New Color Trends!
Jo Sonja® Color Trends - (formerly known as Background Colors) the NEW 2025 tube packaging for our previous Background Color bottle line.
The same colors and formulations in a more economical size. The clear tube shows a full view of the color and allows the last drop of color to be squeezed out without leaving any in a bottle.
Color Trends are the same "Background Matte Flow Acrylics" that are specially formulated to provide one coat coverage on most surfaces. Since we use only professional pigments in all of our paints, all of the Color Trend colors can be easily mixed from the tube color line. However, if you need large quantities, or just prefer the convenience of pre-mixed colors, this new packaging will be perfect for your needs.

Matte Flow Acrylics
and Mediums
Jo Sonja® Matte Flow Acrylics are flow formula acrylics offering the opacity of color and the beautiful, velvet matte finish associated with traditional gouache plus superb handling and brushing characteristics. Unlike gouache, they are water-resistant and will not chip or crack when cured. Made from the finest quality pure pigments, the colors will remain vibrant and true for generations. They are safe, water based and clean up easily with soap and water.
