Dr. Ph. Martin's Hydrus Watercolors

Hydrus Watercolors are made from the finest lightfast, transparent, brilliant and permanent artist pigments. These liquid colors are highly concentrated and when used straight from the bottle, yield the most vivid colors available to the watercolorist. Add water to achieve the richness of tone you desire and white for pastels and opaque shades. Use with brush, technical pen, or airbrush. All colors come in 1 oz bottles with dropper tops. Realism by Janet Nunn Watercolors Painting shows a realistic picture is not always a direct painting. This painting of the "Butterfly Wings" © 2008, is a realistic rendering of a butterfly. Using the Dr. Ph. Martin's India ink gives a solid start of the butterfly. Since India ink is permanent, you can paint over it and the paint will stay. The detailed drawing came to life with the use of the India Ink. The brightness of the butterfly is the Dr. Ph. Martin's Hydrus watercolors. These watercolors are fresh and blend so easily. Combining the realistic drawing of the butterfly with the India ink and the blending of the watercolors give a touch of realism.
