DANIEL SMITH Watercolors: Crafting Exceptional Artistry

DANIEL SMITH, the worldwide leader in watercolors for artists, offers a collection of over 240 beautiful colors that cater to the diverse needs of professionals and beginners alike. The vision behind the formulation of DANIEL SMITH watercolors is two-fold: to meet and exceed the highest industry standards for artist's paints, and to ensure that every batch undergoes rigorous testing and analysis for optimal performance.

Renowned for their purity and permanence, DANIEL SMITH watercolors are expertly crafted using high-quality pigments and pure gum arabic as the binder, with no fillers added. The brand's meticulous attention to detail in selecting the perfect grind for each color ensures that the inherent qualities of the pigments are maximized, resulting in a balanced and vibrant palette.

Among the diverse range of offerings, DANIEL SMITH's PrimaTek Watercolors stand out as a true innovation. These colors are made from minerals, often semi-precious, that have been ground into pigments and blended with gum arabic. The first in this line was Lapis Lazuli Genuine, introduced in 1998, and since then, many more stunning mineral-based colors have been added, such as Amethyst Genuine, Piemontite Genuine, and Serpentine Genuine. These PrimaTek Watercolors often exhibit captivating granulating effects that have been described as "magical" by artists.

Complementing the PrimaTek collection, DANIEL SMITH's Luminescent Watercolors are designed to capture the natural luminescence and iridescence found in subjects like hummingbird feathers or metallic surfaces. These specialized colors offer unique optical effects that add depth and vibrancy to artistic creations.

In addition to their innovative color offerings, DANIEL SMITH has also developed a range of safe and vibrant Cadmium Hues that mimic the density and richness of traditional cadmium colors without the use of the cadmium pigment. These safer alternatives maintain the working properties – staining power, semi-transparency, and excellent lightfastness – of their cadmium counterparts.

DANIEL SMITH's commitment to providing artists with exceptional materials extends beyond their core watercolor line. The brand also offers a variety of complementary products, including Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid, and Walnut Ink, empowering artists with additional creative means to explore their craft.

Crafted in the USA, in the brand's home city of Seattle, Washington, DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are the go-to choice for artists worldwide, from professionals to beginners. The brand's dedication to quality, innovation, and a deep understanding of the unique needs of the artistic community has solidified its reputation as the Innovative Manufacturer of Beautiful Watercolors for Artists Worldwide.
