Mini Ceramic Palette - Warmer Days
Understory watercolours are crafted in small batches from natural, earth based pigments. Each pan of paint is carefully mulled by hand with a simple formula tailored to each pigment. Paint pans are poured and dried in layers to minimize bubbles and cracks and to make sure they’re as full as possible.
These little handmade palettes fit in the palm of one hand, and have been filled with the colours from the Alpenglow set. They’re small enough to fit inside a little metal tin for easy storage if you’re painting on the go. The wells are small, but I’ve topped them off with as much paint as they can fit, and each one should contain about half as much as my standard pans.
The colours in this set are Cirrus, Cherry Blossom, Huckleberry, Deep Moss, Goldenrod and Morchella. Full colour descriptions below…

Cirrus - A light and feathery blue like those crisp days with wispy clouds way above. This colour is made from blue indigo mixed with some white clay for a lighter hue. It flows vey well on the page and lends itself perfectly for painting skies and clouds.
Cherry Blossom - A delicate pink just like those first petals that signal a shift in the seasons. This colour is fairly opaque and not too granulating.
Huckleberry - Sweet memories of berry picking in the mountains at the end of summer. Sun on your back and the taste of wildfire smoke and drying earth. This colour is made from a purple ocher and has lots of granulation.
Deep Moss - The dark green of a mossy grove after a much needed summer rain. This colour has some separation, with some earthy brown tones pulling away from the green.
Goldenrod - A muted gold sienna, rich and textured. A field of late summer blooms, damp in the morning mist.
Morchella - A rich, warm and earthy umber. The colour of morel mushrooms peaking up through the charred soils of wildfires past.
