Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor Stick - Undersea Green

Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor Sticks offer the same superior intensity as the Daniel Smith line of Extra Fine Watercolor paints with the convenience and portability of half pans. Each stick is packed with pure pigment and just enough gum arabic to form a solid stick. Watercolor sticks produce vibrant, strong color when wet, or use them dry to build texture. They're highly reactive with water and release rich, creamy colors. Ideal for sketching, developing color values, and building expressive marks, Daniel Smith Watercolor Sticks combine the best of drawing with painting. They're ideal for mixed media.

Undersea Green - Undersea Green is an exciting medium to high staining green that blends French Ultramarine with Quinacridone Gold. The inorganic, sedimentary French Ultramarine settles and granulates while the organic, transparent Quinacridone Gold floats into a golden halo. When this green is concentrated it will remind you of warm sea kelp. Apply with Moonglow, Ultramarines, and Quinacridone mixtures to color-coordinate and lend atmosphere to various passages. Undersea Green is beautiful touched into a damp area or dry brushed with Interference Gold, and is perfect in autumn leaf paintings.

This is a granulating color, meaning a grainy visual texture is created when the pigment particles settle and clump together rather than settling evenly on the painted surface.
