C7.alchemy{luster}" is inspired by the rich colors of rocks, minerals & crystals. each color is handcrafted by Traci Bautista from a custom mixed organic binder & various pigments.
ABOUT THE PAINT: limited edition handcrafted artisan watercolors created by traci bautista. Each collection is one-of-a-kind. There are limited quantities and once they are gone, that is it.
The colors create a number of textured effects depending on the substrate, type of paper and the amount of water used when they are applied. The magic unfolds as the colors dry and the pigments start to separate. The colors have a luster when light gently hits the surface and some have a slightly gritty texture.
Due to the unique handcrafted manufacturing process of this product the color swatches in the photos may be different. Colors are created in small batches which results in each set being slightly different from the next
