Isabel Roelofs, who comes from two generations of paintmakers and
is a descendant of well-known Belgian artist, Willem Roelofs. Isaro
watercolours have been carefully crafted so that they have maximum
transparency, providing luminosity and excellent layering
capabilities. Handmade in an atelier in Belgium, Isaro use only
high-quality gum arabic and pigments in their watercolours. Gum
arabic varies in colour from very pale yellow to dark brown, and
the gum darkens on contact with the tannin in acacia bark. Isaro
have selected the best acacia gum that when dissolved in water
gives a clear solution. This maintains the purity and luminosity of
the pigments. Glycerine and honey are also used in very precise
amounts to enable the paint to remain supple. Isaro use a
single-flower honey, the honey of acacia, so that the honey is also
very clear. The range of 60 colours is available in 7ml tubes.
