Description
The author is discussing the differences between Blu and MaimeriBlu watercolors. Blu is a permanent watercolor, while MaimeriBlu is a watercolor that is transparent and has no blending powders or additives. The author also mentions that Blu is the whiteness of the paper that illuminates the colors, while MaimeriBlu is the colors themselves.
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.
