{"product_id":"holbein-watercolor-medium","title":"Watercolor Medium","description":"\u003cp\u003eHolbein's watercolor medium transforms paint handling without diluting pigment strength. Where plain water thins both consistency and color intensity, this formulation maintains chromatic power while increasing flow across paper. Brushstrokes glide more smoothly, wet-into-wet passages blend with greater control, and fine detail work becomes notably easier as the medium reduces surface tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chemistry matters here: this isn't just glycerin or gum arabic, Holbein engineered this medium specifically to complement their watercolor formulations. Mix it directly into paint on your palette or thin washes on the paper itself. You'll notice improved workability immediately, particularly when building transparent glazes or attempting techniques that demand extended open time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBotanical illustrators appreciate how the medium enables crisp edges and precise detail without fighting against quick-drying paint. Loose, expressive painters find it facilitates the fluid passages and soft transitions that define their style. The 60ml bottle provides substantial volume for regular use, enough to influence your painting practice without constant replacement. Whether you're refining technique or pushing watercolor into less conventional territory, this medium expands what's possible with the paints you already own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Holbein","offers":[{"title":"60 ml","offer_id":47974367625445,"sku":"97158","price":11.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s97158.jpg?v=1770307203","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.com\/products\/holbein-watercolor-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
