Granulating watercolors create a textured, grainy effect when certain pigments with larger particles or clusters settle into the low spots of the paper. This natural granulation is different from staining pigments, which grind into fine particles and produce smooth washes that sink more deeply into the paper. Granulating mediums can produce a similar clustered effect even with colors that would normally behave like smooth staining pigments. 🧑‍🎨Presentation by Katie from our Merchandising Team 😁 Thanks to our vendor partners at winsorandnewton for the footage 🫶🏽 Special thanks to artist gladiismoreno, whose work we included here 🎥 Filmed at Blick Studios in Chicago, Illinois #GranulatingWatercolors #WatercolorTechniques #WatercolorPigments #WatercolorMaterials #ArtistEducation
