Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolors are renowned worldwide for innovation and quality. The Primatek line represents one of the most distinctive achievements in watercolor making — paints created from real minerals and gemstones, ground into pigment and transformed into artist-grade watercolor.
Mineral pigments are heavier than synthetic ones, allowing them to settle into the paper and create dramatic granulation, natural texture, and organic flow. Each color originates from a specific mineral and geographic source, giving it a unique visual character.
