Schmincke Horadam Watercolor 1/1 Pans Various Shades

Description: Highest light fastness thanks to high-quality artist pigments.Lightfastness is an objective quality feature that does not just depend on the pigment alone, but is determined by the overall recipe. That's why Schmincke does not use the light fastness information provided by the pigment suppliers, but instead tests the overall recipe of each individual color as an original spread in complex tests, e.g. on the company roof and/or through a light fastness test using a xenon lamp. These intensive tests to determine the light resistance of HORADAM® WATERCOLOR colors are required for the correct, strict classification in our “wool scaleA 5-star system is necessary. Nevertheless, watercolor paintings should not be exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time because the paint is usually fine, thin and therefore particularly light-sensitiveA main ingredient in artists' watercolors is Kordofan gum arabic from the dry zones south of the Sahara. Like most natural products, this classic watercolor binder is subject to annual fluctuations. That's why Schmincke tests all available locations with every new purchase of gum arabic and only selects the best location of the respective vintage. This brings small but noticeable quality advantages. The special method of cleaning the natural product is also important. The other recipe ingredients are also carefully selected and of course used individually in each individual recipe in order to obtain a harmonious, consistently high-quality range that is easy to pick up with a brush.Here you will find some colors that are unfortunately no longer available to order after they are sold out.
