Pearlescent Watercolor Paint Tube for Artists

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are the worldwide leader in artist's watercolors, offering over 240 beautiful colors in 15ml tubes, the most of any manufacturer. These classic watercolors are formulated to meet and exceed the highest industry standards for the manufacture of artist's paints, with each batch tested and analyzed for its performance qualities.

The vision in the formulation of DANIEL SMITH watercolors was twofold: to create colors of unsurpassed purity and permanence, and to provide artists with a wide range of unique and innovative color options. Many of the colors are traditional, relied upon by all artists, while others are truly unique, made only by DANIEL SMITH and have become essential to the watercolor artist's palette.

One unique offering from DANIEL SMITH is their PrimaTek Watercolors, made from minerals, often semi-precious, that have been ground into pigments and mixed with gum arabic. These colors, such as Lapis Lazuli Genuine, Amethyst Genuine, and Serpentine Genuine, often exhibit wonderful granulating effects that some artists have described as "magical".

DANIEL SMITH has also developed a line of Luminescent Watercolors, with special optical effects perfect for subjects that have a sparkle, sheen, or reflective glow, like the iridescence of hummingbird feathers or the sheen of metals. Additionally, they have created safe and vibrant Cadmium Hues, which provide the density and richness of cadmium colors without the use of the cadmium pigment.

Some other unique colors in the DANIEL SMITH range include Cascade Green, Green Gold, and Moonglow, as well as pigments sourced from specific locations around the world, like Burgundy Yellow Ochre, Monte Amiata Natural Sienna, and Roasted French Ochre. These colors, along with the consistent performance and lasting lightfastness of all DANIEL SMITH Watercolors, make them a favorite among artists of all levels, from beginners to professionals.

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are packed with high-quality pigments using pure gum arabic as the binder, with no fillers. The company selects the perfect grind for each color to maximize the inherent qualities of the pigment, balancing maximum pigment load with minimum vehicle content.

In addition to their renowned watercolor paints, DANIEL SMITH offers a range of complementary products, including Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid, and Walnut Ink, providing artists with a complete set of materials to create their masterpieces. All DANIEL SMITH products are made in the USA, in Seattle, Washington, ensuring the highest quality and consistency for artists worldwide.
