Watercolors

Supergranulating colours are watercolours with a special property: the combination of at least 2 granulating HORADAM® pigments intensifies this effect to "supergranulation". The colours are formulated with pigments from different colour ranges, resulting in additional colour changes besides the granulation effect. For example, the shade "Deep Sea Indigo" (14 952) is a combination of violet and green pigments, while "Glacier Brown" (14 965) contains a brown and a green pigment. This novel, natural structure formation of the colours varies depending on the paper and the amount of water used. The rougher the paper, the stronger the granulating effect. The 40 supergranulating colours are divided into 8 thematic series of 5 colours each: Deep Sea, Glacier, Galaxy, Forest, Tundra, Volcano, Shire and Desert. The colours are available in half pans. All supergranulating HORADAM® AQUARELL colours have exclusively 4 and 5 stars lightfastness and contain only pigments already known from HORADAM®. The opacity of the colours is predominantly semi-transparent / semi-opaque. All supergranulating colours can be used on their own and perfectly in combination with all 139 HORADAM® AQUARELL watercolours as well as all AKADEMIE® Aquarell watercolours.

Professional dry watercolors in pans are made according to traditional recipes based on gum arabic and thoroughly ground pigments and the addition of acacia honey, used as a binder. Almost the entire watercolor production process is carried out manually to ensure the highest quality and purity of the traditional recipe. In their production, selected organic and inorganic pigments are used, including real Polish cadmium and cobalt. This product is characterized by high solubility and a high degree of resistance to light: watercolors are produced by hand and naturally dried. The range consists of 54 colors
