Description
The author is discussing the merits of Blu-537 Carbon Black watercolours, which are made with a pure pigment mix and do not contain any blending powders or additives. The paper's whiteness allows the artist to see the light behind the colours, which gives the painting a more luminous appearance.
MaimeriBlu features an absolute purity of pigments that, together with gum arabic, compose the totality of the mixture. Imperceptible, transparent, clean. No blending powders, and no additives. Nothing harmonises or synchronises the shift between the various shades. The real value lies in the transparency of its colours and in the freshness of its washes. It is the whiteness of the paper that illuminates this type of painting. The light is behind the colour.
