DANIEL SMITH: The Worldwide Leader in Exceptional Watercolors for Artists

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are renowned for their unparalleled purity, permanence, and performance. The brand's vision in formulating these paints was twofold: to meet and exceed the highest industry standards for artist's paints, and to ensure that every batch is rigorously tested and analyzed to deliver consistent, high-quality results.

As the worldwide leader in watercolors, DANIEL SMITH offers an extensive palette of over 240 beautiful colors in the 15ml size, more than any other manufacturer. Many of these are traditional hues relied upon by artists, while others are truly unique shades created exclusively by the brand, such as Cascade Green, Green Gold, and Moonglow, which have become indispensable to the watercolor community.

DANIEL SMITH's PrimaTek Watercolors are made from minerals, often semi-precious, that have been ground into pigments and combined with gum arabic. This includes colors like Lapis Lazuli Genuine, Amethyst Genuine, Piemontite Genuine, and Serpentine Genuine, which offer captivating granulating effects that some artists have described as "magical."

The brand's Luminescent Watercolors are designed to capture the sparkling, shimmering qualities found in nature, from the iridescence of hummingbird feathers to the sheen of metals. DANIEL SMITH has also developed a range of safe, vibrant Cadmium Hues that replicate the density and richness of cadmium colors without the use of the cadmium pigment itself, making them cleaner in mixtures and stronger in tints.

In addition to their extensive color range, DANIEL SMITH sources unique pigments from specific locations to create colors like Mayan Red, Lunar Blue, Enviro-Friendly Red Iron Oxide, Burgundy Yellow Ochre, Monte Amiata Natural Sienna, and Roasted French Ochre, providing artists with an unparalleled palette of expressive possibilities.

DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are a favorite among artists worldwide, from professionals to beginners, due to their beautiful colors, consistent performance, and excellent lightfastness. The paints are formulated using high-quality pigments and pure gum arabic, with no fillers, and the perfect grind for each color to maximize the inherent qualities of the pigment.

Beyond their exceptional watercolor paints, DANIEL SMITH offers a range of complementary products, including Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid, and Walnut Ink, all designed to provide artists with additional creative tools. Crafted in the USA, in Seattle, Washington, DANIEL SMITH products are the choice of discerning artists around the globe who demand the best materials to realize their artistic vision.
