About this material
Turner Colour Works Artists' Water Colors are tube watercolors made with gum arabic, a natural resin that works as the glue holding the paint to the paper. Of the 54 colors, 37 are made from a single pigment. The colors stay clean when mixed, and the pigments resist changing color over time.
Each tube holds 5 ml. Colors are sold one by one, and there are sets of 12, 18, and 24 colors, plus a 12-color set called Japanesque.
Because the paint is transparent, thin layers let the lines underneath show through. This makes it easy to add color to a coloring page while keeping the line art visible.
Translated from the Japanese original.
