DANIEL SMITH Extra Fine Essentials Introductory Watercolor, 6 Tubes, 5ml

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are the worldwide leader in artist's watercolors, offering over 240 beautiful colors in 15ml tubes, the most of any manufacturer. Formulated to meet and exceed the highest industry standards, each batch is tested and analyzed for performance qualities. The vision in the formulation of DANIEL SMITH watercolors was twofold: to create watercolors of unsurpassed purity and permanence, and to provide artists with a wide range of unique and traditional colors.

Among the unique offerings from DANIEL SMITH are the PrimaTek Watercolors, made from minerals and semi-precious stones 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 artists have described as "magical." The Luminescent Watercolors, designed to capture the sparkle, sheen, and reflective glow found in nature, are another innovative product from DANIEL SMITH.

To meet the demand for vibrant cadmium-based colors without the health concerns, DANIEL SMITH has developed safe and equally rich Cadmium Hues. These colors offer the same staining power, semi-transparency, and lightfastness as their cadmium counterparts, but with a cleaner mixture and stronger tinting strength.

DANIEL SMITH's commitment to providing artists with unique color choices extends to their exclusive colors, such as Cascade Green, Green Gold, and Moonglow, as well as colors sourced from specific locations, like Burgundy Yellow Ochre, Monte Amiata Natural Sienna, and Roasted French Ochre.

The quality of DANIEL SMITH Watercolors is favored by artists worldwide, from professionals to beginners. Packed with high-quality pigments and pure gum arabic as the binder, each color is formulated with the perfect grind to maximize the inherent qualities of the pigment.

In addition to their renowned watercolor paints, DANIEL SMITH offers a range of complementary products, including Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid, and Walnut Ink, allowing artists to further expand their creative possibilities. As an innovative manufacturer based in Seattle, Washington, DANIEL SMITH provides artists around the globe with the best materials to create their masterpieces.

The DANIEL SMITH Essentials Watercolor Set is an excellent way for both beginners and professionals to experience the excitement of painting with DANIEL SMITH Watercolors. This convenient 6-color set, featuring three cool primaries and three warm primaries, allows artists to mix a wide range of colors and explore the foundations of painting, all while using high-quality materials.
