HOLBEIN Artist Granulating Watercolor 5ml Jade Vine Blue
HOLBEIN WG532The HOLBEIN Artist Granulating Watercolor in 15ml is formulated to granulate. This means the pigment particles separate and settle unevenly on textured paper, creating a speckled, textured effect in washes. It's important to understand this isn't a single color, but a characteristic of several colors within the Holbein range.
Specification
- Granulating Pigments: These watercolors use specific pigments that naturally have larger particle sizes and a tendency to separate in water. This is what creates the granulation effect.
- High-Quality Pigments: Holbein is known for using finely ground, high-quality pigments, even in their granulating colors. This ensures good lightfastness (resistance to fading) and color vibrancy.
- 15ml Tubes: The paint comes in standard 15ml tubes, which is a common size for professional-grade watercolors.
- Variety of Colors: Holbein offers a range of 24 granulating colors
Feature
- Creates Texture and Depth: Granulation adds visual interest and a sense of depth to washes, especially useful for depicting textures like foliage, rocks, or sand.
- Unique Aesthetic: It provides a distinct look that can't be achieved with non-granulating watercolors.
- Adds Interest to Washes: Even a simple wash can become more dynamic and visually appealing with granulation.
