Description
The author of the passage is discussing the qualities of MaimeriBlu watercolours. The pigment mixture is composed of "absolute purity of pigments" and "gum arabic," which allows for "transparency, cleanliness, and imperceptibility." The author also points out that the "real value" of MaimeriBlu lies in its "transparency of colours and in the freshness of its washes." The light is behind the colour in MaimeriBlu paintings, which allows for a "clean" and "fresh" look.
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.
