Daniel Smith Watercolor Stick - 3 inch - Graphite Gray

 Pigment: PBk 10 (77265) , Lightfastness: Excellent, Opaque, Low-staining, Non-Granulating. 

Graphite Gray disperses well and quickly in water so floating the dense pigment onto water or into a wet wash offers an interesting handling method. A dry brushstroke quickly followed by a wet brushstroke spreads some of the pigment leaving the texture look of the drybrush. Aged and weathered wood, fence posts and old buildings are fine candidates for this pigment and approach.

These watercolor sticks feature the same color intensity as Daniel Smith Extra-Fine Watercolors, and the same convenience and portability of half pans in a handy stick form. Each watercolor stick is packed with pure pigment and is highly reactive with water, producing vibrant, strong, rich and creamy colors when wet. They can also be used dry to help build texture, making them a great medium for sketching, developing color values and bold expressions. These extra-fine watercolor sticks are a great addition to every artist s palette.
