Sennelier Artists& 39; Watercolour a watercolour tailored to the needs of today& 39;s artists. Sennelier spent a long time working with many different artists to produce L& 39;Aquarelle Sennelier. They consulted watercolourists from all over the world. A panel of professional painters carried out "blind" tests on a number of formulations. They clearly revealed what they were looking for: a watercolour which is luminous brilliant and intense. L& 39;Aquarelle Sennelier fulfils their every wish. A honey-based watercolour. Honey has many virtues: a symbol of light and sun an emblem of poetry and science and has been used since Ancient times as a remedy for dry skin and to help heal wounds. This nectar is used in L& 39;Aquarelle Sennelier not only as a preservative but as an additive giving incomparable brilliance and smoothness to the paint. Always striving for excellence Sennelier has reworked its watercolour formula with increasing the amount of Honey in the paint to reinforce the longevity of the colors their radiance and luminosity. Watercolours Made in France using traditional methods. L& 39;Aquarelle Sennelier has been produced in the same way for more than a century using the best pigments and top quality Kordofan Gum Arabic as a bonding agent. This mix of natural ingredients produces colours which have a smooth bright texture and offer lively colourful shades. The Gum Arabic and honey combination offers incomparable quality of application producing superb washes. Then this base is mixed with pigments and carefully ground. Sennelier makes sure to wet the pigments in purified water (with no mineral salts) for 24 hours before mixing them in with the bonding agent. This improves the way in which the colours and bonding merge together in turn bringing out the full beauty of the colours. This exceptional and very high quality watercolour will help you make your works even more powerful due to the liveliness and purity of the hues. The colours mix together perfectly offering superbly subtle shades. These smooth intense colours will be a genuine pleasure to paint with. The addition of honey will allow the tubes and pans of Sennelier watercolours to stand up to the passing of time and each time you will paint with them you will be able to accurately translate the diversity of light shape and hues.
