Logos, imagery & press kit

Brand logos and product photography are available for editorial and retail use. For a press kit or specific assets, please contact our team and let us know how the assets will be used.

For reviewers, retailers & educators

We actively encourage independent, hands-on testing over scripted endorsements. If you review art materials, teach watercolour, or stock professional paint, we invite you to work from our published technical data and judge the paint on its own terms.

For every Michael Harding watercolour we publish the pigment code, single- vs multi-pigment status, lightfastness (ASTM / Blue Wool), transparency, granulation, staining and rewetting - the same figures an independent reviewer would record. Our professional watercolour guide and Pigment Encyclopaedia are good places to start, and we welcome the same scrutiny applied to us.

For editorial samples, retail enquiries or educational material, please contact our team with details of how the paint will be used.
