HARRY'S MAGIC WATERCOLOR WAKEUP
Harry's Magic Watercolor Wakeup
Why do many experienced watercolor artists and teachers start a painting session by
putting out fresh paint from the tube? Isn't this expensive? You bet, especially
considering the cost of watercolors these days. The answer is obvious - it’s better!
Watercolor (gouache too) is reversible. Water can be added repeatedly to the dried-up paint
on your palette and you can paint with the solution. However, the result will never be
the same as using fresh paint from the tube. This is because adding more water dilutes
the vehicle! Painting with this diluted mixture is noticeably less than ideal. Perhaps
the most annoying aspect is brushing, which is not smooth like color from the tube, but
more granular!
Harry's Magic Watercolor Wakeup solves this problem. It is a
specially-balanced mixture of the ingredients found in all watercolor paint. These include:
a binder (gum arabic), a plasticizer (glycerin), a wetting agent, and preservatives.
Put a few drops on a dried-up color and wait a few minutes. The color will be
transformed to tube-like consistency and smooth brushing will be possible again ---
like magic!
