IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Each pigment pan is handcrafted in my Ottawa studio, poured in 3–4 layers with 2–3 weeks of drying between pours for a rich, highly concentrated colour that reactivates beautifully.
Half pans. Non-toxic, ethically sourced pigments, handmade in small batches. Minor imperfections (bubbles, bumps, cracks) are normal and do not affect quality.
Dot cards and template sets are hand-poured with generous amounts of paint—made for real use, with enough colour for many painting sessions.
HOW TO USE
-
Wake up the paint with a drop of clean water.
-
Let it sit for 2–3 minutes so the pigments can soften and reveal their full depth and shimmer.
-
Mix colours freely on your palette or directly on the page to create your own custom shades.
-
Allow pans and dots to dry completely before closing or storing to keep them in top condition.
