DANIEL SMITH PrimaTek Black Tourmaline Genuine Watercolor 15 ml. - World`s finest artists` paints

Can be as dark as night or as pale as a wispy fog. This intriguing PrimaTek color is made from a semi-precious stone thought to bring luck, dispel negativity and promote clarity of purpose. In washes, especially on rough paper, it displays exciting granulation with delicate settling and a tracery of spidery runs. Intensely black in mass tone, it lets down to a beautiful, warm pearl gray. Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process. once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash.
