Stoneground Paint Co. carefully crafts its watercolor paint by blending finely ground pigment particles with a binder made from water, gum Arabic, and wildflower honey. Watercolor is a versatile medium celebrated for its transparency and the wide range of effects it allows artists to achieve. By using pigments that range from modern to mineral, traditional to pearlescent, Stoneground provides watercolor artists with a vibrant and diverse palette to choose from.
The pigments used in Stoneground’s Traditional Colours are those that have been favored by artists for centuries—and, in some cases, millennia. These include primarily inorganic pigments such as iron oxides, green earths, and the timeless umber and sienna hues popularized during the Renaissance. The collection also features modern adaptations of historically used pigments, such as Zinc and Titanium White (replacements for the toxic Lead White) and Mayan pigments, which are contemporary, lightfast versions of colors used by ancient Central and South American civilizations.
