Schmincke Watercolor Supergranulating Colors- "Forest" Collection
"Supergranulating Colours“
Schmincke has now succeeded in formulating two further special editions in which supergranulating effects can be achieved in additional colour ranges. The new series „Tundra“ and „Forest“ each contain 5 colours in 15 ml tubes and complement the three previous series „Deep Sea“, „Glacier“ and „Galaxy“ in the most beautiful way.
The colours of the „Forest“ series are suitable for painting all kinds of forest in a wide range of shades of granulating green. With the
series „Tundra“, Nordic, harsh landscapes can be captured just as beautifully as exotic travel impressions of rather dry regions. Both
series complement the existing 15 HORADAM® supergranulating colors to the finest and together form a range with inexhaustible
potential.
What is granulating?
Granulation is the property of pigments to agglomerate on the paper. The combination of at least 2 granulating HORADAM®
pigments enhances this effect to „supergranulation“. In the case of pigments from different colour ranges, the colour interactions are
further intensified.
For example, the colour „Tundra Violet“ (14 983) is a combination of brown and blue pigment, while „Forest Grey“ (14 945) con-
tains a black, a brown and a green pigment.
Please note! This novel, natural structure formation of the colours varies depending on the substrate and the amount of water used.
The rougher a paper is, the stronger the granulation effect.

Carta Varese Florentine Paper- Fruit and Ribbons 19x27 Inch Sheet
The Italian Carta Varese is one of the most traditional European
“fantasy-papers”. Its roots go back to original Rennaissance patterns
used as decoration of chests, cradles, or combs. Carta Varese papers
have been manufactured since the 17th century in Veneto becoming famous
for their variety of colors and small-patterned motifs. In former times
they were all hand-printed by means of a wooden printing block,
bringing a mixture of tempera, dextrin and starch on the base paper. The
block had to be pressed several times on a sheet in order to cover the
format, but a typical blank edge on one side remained. Around the end of
the 19th century lithography was introduced and by the mid 20th century
the production changed to offset-printing, making the papers available
to many more customers.
The printing
process of Carta Varese is elaborate. The two-way and multi-colored
papers are printed in a single-colour machine. Every color is printed
separately, so the paper sheets run through the machine several times, a
method reminiscent of silk-screen printing. This is the reason why the
colors of Carta Varese are so bright and dense even though it is an
offset print.
Carta Varese is not only beautiful but
also substantial. The base paper is a
100 g/qm ivory paper, uncoated and acid free.
