Three shades of black allows the leap from drawing to painting Liquid charcoal in the 35 ml tube - a clean, dust-free way of painting, charcoal drawing and underpainting with charcoal. The three pigments of natural origin used for this (PBK 8, pit black) are created by charring fruit seeds from the EU area and result in the following unique coal nuances: a neutral peach stone black - 18 757 a warm, brownish cherry pit black - 18 756 a cool, bluish grape seed black - 18 755 Due to the larger quantity of available paint, liquid charcoal can be used to quickly process large areas. The liquid charcoal contains the high-quality binder gum arabic like traditional artists' watercolours (gouaches, watercolours, etc.), has a gouache-like consistency and can be diluted with water, so that different shades, structures and layer thicknesses can be achieved by different application. Depending on the substrate and the thickness of the layer, it can be wiped off by hand and removed with water. Used as thin underpainting (e.g. in oil painting), subsequent paints do not become dirty or become less dirty than with conventional charcoal underpainting due to the higher adhesion of the bound carbon pigments to the substrate. Of course, the liquid charcoal can be combined with drawing charcoal. The blurring and removability of the liquid charcoal depends on the surface of the substrate - the more even and firm the surface, the easier to change the application. Pre-tests are recommended. Please note: Due to the fact that the pigments are natural products, there may be minimal colour variations in each batch.

Is made of melted charcoal and arabic gum. The particles of charcoal are small and have the richest black tones, which enables to create any work just then same as with a water-based paint. As the charcoal particles are larger than other pigments used in watercolors, the effect you get is graininess. It can be effected by more rough paper used and by the amount of water added. When dry it is matt and will have varying areas of texture and granulation. As the arabic gum is a good re-soluble medium it allows to re-use Charcoal Water, similarly to watercolor paints. Main features: - perfect for both bold as well as for delicate works - suitable for artists who draw as well as for watercolourists, maybe used for drawing and painting - ideal as an extra paint for watercolour black shades, to enrich the palette of colours - huge range of tones you may create with one brush stroke, from velvet black to light grey, with blue and brown undertones - allows to create variety of texture and granulation - compared with black watercolour paint, shows difference in the pigment granulation, which is useful for special effects or for verying shades when mixed with other paints - can be water re-activated when dry - can be used wet or dry - can be applied with different brush and other paining tools as well as with fingers - can be used with any absorbent surfaces, such as watercolour papers, canvases and panels previously covered with watercolour ground. - for finished work safety it is recommended to use a fixative
