Jackman’s Art Materials

Established in November 2019 within the heart of the UK, Jackman’s Art Materials was created with a vision to create the highest quality art material products that focus on the best possible experience for the artist. Marc Jackman, Founder and Chief Chemist grew up around the Art Materials industry with Father Peter Jackman working all his working life within the industry; it was only after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease that he had to take early retirement. Around 5 years after his retirement, Marc came home from his day job as an Accountant/BA with an idea that would allow them to spend more time and build something together; this idea was Jackman's Art Materials.  It wasn't long after starting the company that attention to detail and making the highest quality watercolours became an obsession for Marc; this very quickly led onto formulating Traditional Indian Drawing Inks and later Acrylics. This fits with Marc's natural interest in science and always questioning 'why'.

"On behalf of our club, I would like to thank you for providing one of the most interesting and informative demos we have seen.
We were impressed by your enthusiasm and obvious attention to detail in researching and developing the best product you can.
It was fascinating to learn the details and complexities of producing a humble tube of watercolour paint. Actually seeing the milling part of the manufacturing process demonstrated made it much easier to understand how the paint is made.
It was a truly unique experience, and we would happily recommend the demo to anyone with an interest in painting and paint production."
