From Beam Paints:

“When I make paint I think about my Dad a lot, he taught me when I was really small to identify hematite and look for paintstones. He kept them in his art bag in a little cloth wrapper, and when he needed paint he brought them out and prepared his paint for ceramic bowls, drums, or rocks. I really wanted something of my paint making practice to share the tactile joy of the physicality of paint, and this is it! 

These little jewels are also about our values and support our respect for the earth and being plastic free. They are wrapped in beeswaxed cotton with paper labels identifying the color name and are our answer to halfpans! They are 7/8 inch across from edge to edge of the wrapper and 5/8 inch across the paint. Free your art kit!!!”

Granulating watercolor half pans by Issy.Watercolors – handmade in the Netherlands!

From Issy:

“The paint is handmade. Little bubbles, cracks and sticky spots are normal. Paints can shrink overtime and fall out. If the paint falls out of the well, add a drop of water in the well and press the paint back in. Big air bubbles can occur. 

Handmade paints work differently than generic brands. For the best results, add a drop of water to the paint and let it sit for about 2-5 minutes. Use your wet brush to pick up some paint and swirl it into a mixing palette. Add more water for the pigments to flow freely and separate and granulate.

All paints are Vegan! Made with nothing but Gum Arabic, Water, vegetable glycerin, Vegan Ox Gall, Corn Syrup and Tea Tree oil. We do not use clove oil.”

From Beam Paints:

“Inspired by the incomparable patron saint of women artists, Frida Kahlo. Magnificent artist whose home was casa azul, who graced the cover of vogue Paris with a straight on gaze that went down in history. Also an artist in her personal appearance, bringing indigenous influence from her life to her canvases to her hair and dress. We honour her with these colors calling to mind the vivid lushness of her paintings.” 

“When I make paint I think about my Dad a lot, he taught me when I was really small to identify hematite and look for paintstones. He kept them in his art bag in a little cloth wrapper, and when he needed paint he brought them out and prepared his paint for ceramic bowls, drums, or rocks.

“My family has always made ceramic pieces and I can’t remember learning how to make things in clay just that it’s always been a part of my life. These little clay animals are a joy to make, and I thrill to think of little paint menageries of worktop tables. 

Little handmade porcelain turtles filled with a full shell made of watercolour! Fit in the palm of your hand!”
