Handmade Paints - Instructions and Safety

Thank you so much for your purchase. Here are some care tips to help you get the best out of your products. 

HANDMADE WATERCOLORS

Instructions and care tips:

Add a few drops of water before use. Give it some time to settle. Go make yourself a nice drink and set-up your other supplies. Once activated, the paint will melt on your brush.

FOR BEST GRANULATION: Handmade paint behaves differently than big brand paints. The paint is poured in tiny layers and without the use of stabilizers. While drying, heavy pigments can sink to the bottom of the layer. Once your paint is activated, give it a good whirl with your brush. Use a mixing palette and a lot of water to achieve the best results. Play around with your paint to water ratio, experiment, and don’t forget to have fun.

Paints can crack over time because we don’t use stabilizers. This happens sometimes due to the natural shrinkage and humidity. This does not affect the quality of the paint.

❗️The paint is handmade. Little bubbles, cracks and sticky spots are normal. Paints can shrink overtime and fall out. If the paint falls out of the the well, add a drop of water in the well and press the paint back in. 

❗️Handmade paints works different then generic brands. For the best results, add a drop of water to the paint and let it sit for about 2-5 minutes. Use your wet brush to pick up some paint and swirl it into a mixing palette. Add more water for the pigments to flow freely and separate and granulate.
