Product Details:

8 fl oz (237 ml) bottle
Natural Pigments Watercolor Medium is a solution of gum arabic, honey and a small amount of preservative to make your own watercolors. Maintains watercolor's transparency and brilliance. Use it to increase watercolor transparency and brightness or to improve adhesion and spread the brush stroke. Mix with dry pigments to provide a smooth, water-soluble paste with a honey-like consistency.

This is the basic medium we use in our own watercolor paints. Disperse pigments in this medium by placing a small amount in a pile of dry powder pigment and then mull to creamy smoothness. Also use watercolor medium to dilute dried watercolor paint. Works well with any watercolors.

Note: Best if stored in a refrigerator. Store away from light in a cool location.

Availibility: Usually ships within 24 hours.
