Essential Trio Set
Essential Trio Set is the latest additional palette to our popular Mixer Set.
This set consists of 3 vibrant colours in half-pans. They are all single-pigment, artist grade colours made from synthetic pigments. Like the other colours in the Essential Set, these colours are easy to mix and have a great intensity and tonal range, making them an excellent addition to your existing collection.
Here are the colours included:
- Manganese Violet
- Lemon Yellow III
- Phthalo Green II
This set also includes:
- A small travel tin
- A hand-painted colour chart
- A strong magnet has been attached to each pan for your convenience
- All colours will be wrapped individually in foil to protect them during delivery
These artist-grade paints are all hand-mulled in tiny batches by me in Melbourne Australia. I sourced and tested pigments from both local and international suppliers to create this collection. I made my own binder which includes natural ingredients such as gum, honey and a little bit of natural preservative. Each pigment has its own recipe as they react very differently when mixed. I have spent hours and made countless batches of test paint to get a good balance of pigment to binder. Unlike many commercial watercolours, no fillers are used in the process, only binder and pigment. In some colours, up to 50% pigment was used. All pans are hand-poured and dried gradually in three layers to ensure they are fully filled. It takes at least two weeks to completed each pan depending on the weather and the pigment.
Please note, even though I've tried my best to make each pan perfect, they won't be. Some cracking might appear on some colours due to the climate or the pigment. Cracking in the pan will not affect the use or the ability of the paint to re-wet.
WARNING:
While all colours in this collection are made from non-toxic ingredients, they are not for human consumption. Keep out of reach of small children.
Lightfastness:
Most of the pigments I have used have an 'excellent' lightfastness rating. The colour index (if available from the manufacturer) is indicated on the packaging for your information.
