Smith's goal is to make the painting process as memorable as your
finished masterpiece. Daniel Smith have spent eighteen years
developing the finest and most complete line of watercolour paint
so you can create your own unique vision. PrimaTek Watercolours are
made from minerals, often semi precious minerals, that have been
ground into pigments, mixed with gum arabic (the binder) and milled
into PrimaTek Watercolours. The first was Lapis Lazuli Genuine in
1998, since then, many more have been added such as Amethyst
Genuine, Piemontite Genuine and Serpentine Genuine. Most of these
colours have wonderful granulating effects that some artists have
called 'magical'.This is a 5ml tube of Daniel Smith Primatek
