At Colorantic, we are lucky to collaborate with Natacha Créative!
Moreover, in this article, she describes her passion for painting and her opinion on the Colorantic product range.
Painting and me
First of all, painting has been part of my life for a very long time. And I actually received my first set of oil paints to paint canvases when I was very young. From the moment I first held a paintbrush in my hands, I knew I would quickly become addicted to all things painting.
It was the day I learned decorative painting techniques that my passion took off. Plus, anyone who took classes with me will tell you how passionate and in my element I was. That said, at that moment, I had completely fallen in love with this magnificent art.
The passion that lives within me
Above all, among all the possibilities that painting offers, what I have always loved above all is the transformation. I love bringing back to life a piece of furniture or a decorative object that no longer has any personality, it’s pure magic. In short, just seeing it transform before my eyes is a pleasure that gives me an incredible feeling of personal accomplishment.
During all these years of profession and pleasure that I have learned, taught and worked in this environment, I have had the chance to try and test a host of products. This is what allowed me to form my own opinion on the wide variety of processing products offered on the market.
Funny fact: I even married a man who manufactures paint resin bases for large multinationals all over North America! So, we can say that I am immersed in painting, and this in all spheres of my life!
The owner of Colorantic
Not long ago, I received a call from Marianne Soucy, owner of Colorantic. So I went to meet her so that she could introduce me to her brand new paint range, but also to test it. In fact, now that I’ve looked at all of its products, I’m really happy to tell you about them in more detail!
After several months of use on various surfaces, both for work and for my personal creations, I am now ready to praise its merits by telling you about it in more detail.
What is Colorantic?
I will start by introducing you to Marianne Soucy, this woman as passionate and in love with chalk-based paint as I am. Indeed, she is very proud to be able to say that she is the first French-speaking woman in Canada to own a chalk paint business. Marianne specializes in all upcycling products.
Originally from Victoriaville, Quebec, Marianne and her husband Marc lived in Ontario for a few years. In addition to being a teacher and mother of three boys, Marianne had a “Vintage” store where we could find furniture transformed by her hands.
After a few years, she and her husband decided to return to Victoriaville to be closer to family.
So, with the experience acquired in Ontario, she chose to design products that are easy to use and dry quickly, with the aim of making life easier for everyone and helping enthusiasts create beautiful furniture.
Exceptional quality
His great desire to create a line of high-quality Canadian products came true. Colorantic chalk-based paint is creamy and smooth and comes in a wide range of colors, each one as beautiful as the next.
Colorantic paint applies beautifully and dries properly, neither too quickly nor too slowly, resulting in a uniform or textured finish. It’s really matte and chalky, so it’s perfect for painting on multiple surfaces. As a bonus, you will discover the name of each of the colors in its palette, the choice of which is quite fun!
My opinion on Colorantic products
To begin with, my biggest anticipation was for the finishing wax. Not that I doubted its quality, simply because I had already tried waxes from different companies that were not to my taste. So I was a little afraid to try it and not like it. However, to my surprise, it is a fabulous product! The wax is simple to apply, it polishes easily and is not sticky. So, from the first use I was won over by this company and its high-end products which lived up to my expectations.
It must be said that Marianne has great knowledge in the field and she knew exactly what she wanted to offer. So she did her homework, as they say. And I’m really proud that we now have a fantastic, economical paint brand just for us in Quebec. In fact, what is even more important to me is being able to work with products that are accessible and easy to use.
So, for this tour de force, I tip my hat to Colorantic. It should be noted that its range of products will soon be available throughout Quebec. Moreover, more than 150 stores carry the Colorantic product range.
Do not hesitate to purchase high-quality Colorantic products and thus support one of our Quebec companies.
