Supergranulating colours are watercolours with a special property: the combination of at least 2 granulating HORADAM® pigments intensifies this effect to "supergranulation".
The colours are formulated with pigments from different colour ranges, resulting in additional colour changes besides the granulation effect. For example, the shade "Deep Sea Indigo" (14 952) is a combination of violet and green pigments, while "Glacier Brown" (14 965) contains a brown and a green pigment. This novel, natural structure formation of the colours varies depending on the paper and the amount of water used. The rougher the paper, the stronger the granulating effect.
The 40 supergranulating colours are divided into 8 thematic series of 5 colours each:
- Deep Sea,
- Glacier,
- Galaxy,
- Forest,
- Tundra,
- Volcano,
- Shire and
- Desert.
The colours are available in 15 ml tubes. All supergranulating HORADAM® AQUARELL colours have exclusively 4 and 5 stars lightfastness and contain only pigments already known from HORADAM®. The opacity of the colours is predominantly semi-transparent / semi-opaque.
All supergranulating colours can be used on their own and perfectly in combination with all 140 HORADAM® AQUARELL watercolours as well as all AKADEMIE® Aquarell watercolours.
