Description
The watercolour has a high color strength, meaning that it can produce a lot of color with little paint, which can be a challenge for artists. The tinting zinc has a higher concentration of pigment, which means that when mixed with other colors, it will make the mix semi-opaque. The transparent chinese white has a lower concentration of pigment, which means that color mixes will remain transparent.
One of the unique characteristics of these watercolours is the
unparalleled colour strength (maximum pigmentation). And while this
high colour strength requires a slightly different approach on the
part of the aquarellist (so little paint is needed from the tube or
cup for the desired colour effect that you have to get used to the
ratio of paint to diluent), the advantages are clear. Tinting Zinc
vs. Transparent Chinese White.The two colours are made from the
same pigment however the Tinting Zinc has a higher concentration.
This means that when mixing with other colours the Tinting Zinc
will make the mix semi-opaque. Transparent Chinese White has a
lower concentration, which means that colour mixes maintain their
transparency.
