Rhodonite Genuine Watercolor by DANIEL SMITH

Today, I am spotlighting our DANIEL SMITH Extra Fine Watercolor – Rhodonite Genuine.

Rhodonite Genuine is part of our DANIEL SMITH Collection of PrimaTek Watercolors, which are paints made from minerals mined from the earth.

The name of the mineral Rhodonite comes from the Greek word for rose, rhodon, and was historically made into vases, platters and mantles in Russia. It is now often used for jewelry and here at DANIEL SMITH we take jewelry quality stones and make them into Rhodonite Genuine Watercolor and Rhodonite Genuine Oil Paints.

As you can see in the video, Rhodonite Genuine is a beautiful rose pink ranging in color from very dark in the tube, to rich medium pink and on to sheer glowing pink. Our Rhodonite Genuine has an excellent lightfast rating, is low staining with no granulation, and is a semi-transparent watercolor paint.

ASTM Lightfastness Rating: Excellent
Transparency: Semi-transparent
Staining: Low
Granulating: No

Every Day, Express Yourself with ART….
