DANIEL SMITH introduced the PrimaTek paint collection crafted from natural minerals, including some semi-precious stones, dating back to 1998 when they unearthed a reserve of Lapis Lazuli. Our team collaborates with a dedicated mineralogist to responsibly source these minerals, which are then meticulously processed into pigment and finely milled into watercolor paint. PrimaTek paints are renowned for their captivating granulation, imparting a dynamic sense of movement and depth that many artists find enchanting.
Engineered to surpass industry benchmarks, each batch undergoes rigorous analysis to ensure superior performance across various criteria including lightfastness, color intensity, tinting strength, transparency, vibrancy, undertones, particle size, density, and viscosity. Unlock your creativity with a palette of vibrant and consistent colors, easily blendable to create an endless array of shades and hues.
