Description

Burnt Sienna is our exquisitely hand-crafted watercolor paint made with an extremely concentrated, high-quality single source pigment. Every pan is meticulously hand mulled, filled, and labeled using only pure local honey and all natural gum arabic to achieve an exceptionally concentrated and richly textured pigment. Every paint is single pigment with maximum concentration and no binders, fillers, or extenders.


Burnt Sienna is a rich, reddish-brown watercolor made from a single natural earth pigment that has been heated to deepen its tone and enhance its warmth. Revered by artists for centuries, Burnt Sienna brings depth, warmth, and versatility to any palette. Its strong tinting strength, soft granulation, and smooth semi-opaque body make it perfect for shadow work, figure painting, landscapes, and glazing. It blends beautifully with both earth tones and brights, offering a natural, grounded feel with a classic painterly character. Burnt Sienna is a must-have for any artist seeking a historically rooted, high-performance pigment with timeless appeal.
