DANIEL SMITH EXTRA FINE WATERCOLOR 15ML - TERRE ERCOLANO (S2)

Highly saturated and bold, Terre Ercolano is a natural brick red that brings an earthy sensibility to your watercolor paintings. Capture the vibrant tones of a red desert with rugged granulation or create a warm, ruddy wash with this versatile shade. This semi-transparent pigment has excellent lightfastness.

Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
