"As professional teaching artists, we asked if DANIEL SMITH could develop a new dark watercolour pigment so that seasoned watercolourists and beginners could easily mix visually pleasing, colourful, clean darks. They wanted to make it easier for our students to avoid making muddy darks in one easy step, and this is the perfect solution! DANIEL SMITH's new Neutral Tint is just what they have been hoping for" - Theresa Goesling and Cindy Briggs.
