Daniel Smith Watercolor Paint Tube, Verditer Blue

DANIEL SMITH is the worldwide leader in watercolors for artists, offering over 240 beautiful colors in their 15ml line, the most extensive range of any manufacturer. Their classic watercolors are renowned for their unparalleled purity and permanence, formulated to exceed the highest industry standards for artist's paints. Each batch is rigorously tested and analyzed to ensure consistent performance qualities.

Many of DANIEL SMITH's colors are traditional, relied upon by artists globally, while others are truly unique formulations available only from this innovative brand. The PrimaTek Watercolors, for instance, are made from finely ground minerals, often semi-precious, such as Lapis Lazuli Genuine, Amethyst Genuine, Piemontite Genuine, and Serpentine Genuine. These mineral-based paints exhibit wonderful granulating effects that some artists have described as "magical."

DANIEL SMITH also offers Luminescent Watercolors, designed to capture the sparkle, sheen, and reflective glow found in nature, like the iridescence of hummingbird feathers or the sheen of metals. Additionally, the brand has developed safe and vibrant Cadmium Hues that provide the rich density of cadmium colors without the use of the cadmium pigment. These cleaner, stronger tinting colors maintain the staining power, semi-transparency, and excellent lightfastness of their namesakes.

Exclusive DANIEL SMITH colors, such as Cascade Green, Green Gold, and Moonglow, are highly sought after by artists. The company also sources unusual pigments from specific locations to create unique colors, including Mayan Red, Lunar Blue, and Enviro-Friendly Red Iron Oxide, expanding the creative palette for watercolorists.

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are a favorite among professionals and beginners alike, renowned for their beautiful, consistent performance and lasting color. Formulated with high-quality pigments and pure gum arabic binder, with no fillers, each color is meticulously crafted to maximize the inherent qualities of the pigment.

In addition to their exceptional watercolor paints, DANIEL SMITH offers a range of complementary products, including Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid, and Walnut Ink, providing artists with a comprehensive suite of creative tools. All DANIEL SMITH products are made in the USA, in Seattle, Washington, for artists worldwide.

As the Innovative Manufacturer of Beautiful Watercolors, DANIEL SMITH is dedicated to empowering artists with the finest materials to realize their creative visions. From the depth and vibrancy of Verditer Blue, an historical pigment with a place on every palette, to the surprising effects achieved through its semi-transparent, granulating properties, DANIEL SMITH watercolors are a true testament to the company's commitment to excellence and innovation.
