Ivory Black (PBk9) Noir d'Ivoire
Ivory black (or Bone black) is a semi-transparent, warm black. Because it is semi-transparent, it can darken transparent colours without overpowering them.
Daniel Smith Ivory Black is a warm, semi-transparent pigment leaning toward an opaque hue. Historically, this black was derived from burnt ivory from an endangered species. Thankfully, this is no longer the practice. Ivory Black, touched with yellow, creates a blackened green that is excellent for backlit foliage. Think Sumi and hand-painted stone lithographs. This colour can be used to darken transparent pigments.

DANIEL SMITH Watercolour Sticks are a "Pan in Your Hand"!
Daniel Smith Watercolour Sticks offer vibrant colours and the same pure artists' pigments as their Extra Fine Watercolour Paint. They are very portable and long-lasting, making excellent on-the-go painting tools. Each stick is packed with pure pigment, producing vibrant, intense colours when wet. They can also be used dry to build texture. The sticks can also be used like traditional pan colours. Try wetting your watercolour brush and lifting the colour directly from the stick's surface.
Each stick offers exceptional value as one stick is equivalent to three whole watercolour pans. The sticks can be cut down and inserted into empty half pans to be used as you would a traditional pan watercolour. All the sticks are the same price and include a selection of PrimaTek colours.
These innovative 3-inch watercolour sticks are DANIEL SMITH Watercolour paints shaped into a convenient stick form, allowing you to draw and paint with your watercolours.
