Carpathian Terre Verte Green Watercolor Paint

Description

Carpathian Terre Verte 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 pure local honey, natural gum arabic, and a small amount of food grade sodium benzoate preservative to achieve a concentrated and richly textured pigment. Every paint is single pigment with maximum concentration and no fillers or extenders.

Carpathian Terre Verte is a soft, cool green sourced from natural green earth deposits near the Carpathians. Long treasured by artists since antiquity, this historic pigment offers a muted, mineral rich tone with a gentle, smoky character. With excellent transparency and delicate granulation, it is ideal for classical figure painting, underpainting flesh tones, botanical work, and atmospheric landscapes. Carpathian Terre Verte brings subtle elegance and timeless harmony to any palette.
