A full overview of what watercolours are made with you can find in special articles. Let’s stop at the main factors that make watercolour genuine and quality. Generally speaking, any watercolour would have the following components: pigments – to colour your artwork binder – to glue pigment powder together and adhere the solution to your paper fillers – to increase the visible volume of paint sold plasticizer – to increase the elasticity of paint and film humidifiers – to prevent paint from over-drying preservatives – to prevent mould growth additives to enhance colours or achieve any other specific goals. The best paints have more pigment, the right amount of binder, plasticizer, humidifiers and preservatives. These ingredients are essential for any watercolours. Lower-grade paints may look the same, but they will have more fillers, and tints instead of pigments or low-quality pigments.
