I just bought this set! I'm excited for them to arrive and try them out. This looks like a fun selection of colors, thanks for putting this set together 😊
MaiMeri Blu has always been known to be made with binder and pigment with no extra additives. This is true. However, the binder is not just gum Arabic alone. Binder for watercolor paint uses gum Arabic, and a humectant, like glycerin, honey or dextrose syrup so it can rewet after its dried. Without the humectant, the paint would dry hard as a rock and will rewet with extreme difficulty. Anyone who makes home made watercolor paint knows this. If you want the paint to disperse well and flow readily through the water, a dispersant agent has to be added as part of the binder. Ox gal was the traditional way once upon a time, But now days a synthetic version is used by many brands. The more gum Arabic used, the less active flow the paint will be. A paint made with only gum Arabic and pigment will not rewet, nor will it diperse and flow on a wet surface. I believe it's a total misunderstanding about what the paint binder really consists of. Many brands add fillers, brighners, and preserves. MaiMeri doesn't. It's as pure as it gets.
Wao I can’t believe you can mix so many colours from just six colours!
