M. Graham Artists’ Watercolor Tubes are made with thoughtfully selected pigments and Northwest blackberry honey, a nod to early artists who sourced their materials from nature. Custom-milled to preserve the unique qualities of each pigment, the honey’s viscosity enhances color strength and ensures easy dilution, yielding fluid, uniform washes. It also prevents colors from hardening on the palette and in the tube.
