A watercolour is a painting medium made of finely ground pigment suspended in a water-soluble binder (usually gum arabic).
Its primary characteristics are transparency and fluidity. When diluted with water and applied to paper, the colours allow the light to pass through and reflect off the white paper, creating a distinctively luminous and delicate appearance.
Watercolours are popular for their portability (often sold as dry cakes or tubes) and their ability to create soft washes, seamless blends, and quick sketches.
The key selling points and highlights of watercolours are:
Luminosity & Transparency: The defining feature. Colours remain transparent, allowing light to reflect off the paper, giving the artwork a unique glow.
Portability: Highly convenient, especially dry pan sets, which can be easily carried and used anywhere with just a brush and water.
Ease of Cleanup: As they are water-soluble, brushes and palettes clean up quickly and easily with just water.
Versatility: Excellent for creating everything from sweeping, soft washes and atmospheric backgrounds to fine details and quick urban sketches.
Blendability: Pigments easily mix on the palette or the paper, allowing artists to create a vast range of secondary colours and smooth gradients.
