Watercolor Sets
Our professional artist watercolors are made with Northwest honey. Preferred by artists for centuries, honey with balanced amounts of gum Arabic and water creates a fluid binding medium in which we’re able to disperse exceptional amounts of pigment. The higher pigment loads provide greater color saturation and richness for a complete range of performance from delicate tints to dark, concentrated color. By using honey, we can avoid using artificial humectants and preservatives in our paints and instead infuse more color. Honey naturally absorbs moisture from the atmosphere so our color will not harden in the tube or dry out on your palette. Our watercolors re-wet almost immediately even after months of disuse providing you more time to paint and less time working in your palette. Your studio palette can be left in open air all year long so there is no need to use a sponge in your palette to keep your paint moist.

Gouache Sets
Our professional artist gouache is crafted using honey which allows us to load each color with more high-performance lightfast pigments. The virtue of our fine art gouache is pure color without chalks or fillers that degrade the appearance of the color when dry. The nature of each pigment creates variations of opacity. We leave the addition of white to the artist. An even, matte finish is consistent throughout the entire spectrum. Each color has been formulated with pure northwest honey for layered application without cracking. Balanced quantities of gum Arabic and water are combined with large amounts of pigment to achieve a high degree of flow for strong brush strokes and direct, smooth application without loss of brilliance. Since ours is an artist quality gouache, you can achieve washes much like you can do with watercolors. Superior to brands designed for temporary work, combine our gouache and watercolor, or use gouache by itself, to create a professional archival piece of art.

Oil Sets
Our professional artist oil color is ground in walnut oil, the medium preferred by artists for more than five centuries. We chose to build our oil color with this medium because its unique refractive index and non-yellowing nature produces color that is naturally more alive and brilliant. This is especially important in your whites, yellows, and blues. Our colors retain their clarity over time and are free from the discoloring associated with other drying oils. Walnut oil allows us to increase the amount of pigment in our colors resulting in extraordinary richness, color saturation, brilliance, and tinting strength. Free flowing and slow drying, walnut oil enables delicate passages of finely blended color, rich jewel-like glazes, or full brush applications without the addition of solvents.
Acrylic Sets
We create our professional artist acrylics using a unique, high solids acrylic polymer resin. This high solids emulsion enables us to substantially increase pigment loads by reducing dependency upon artificial thickeners. Greater pigment loads result in lively, bright clean colors. The resin also provides a unique delicacy of touch so you can achieve fine detail to broad, full brush strokes. The color is slower drying allowing subtle blends and soft transitions between tones. A slower cure rate allows the surface to be reactivated for up to the first hour after application for striking wet into wet effects. Traditional or experimental methods are easily expressed with the body and flow of pure color free from extenders and adulterants. Our versatile heavy body acrylic may be applied in dramatic impasto effects or layered in glazes to achieve luminosity and harmony.
