Basic Usage 1. Stroke the surface with a water-soaked brush • Place a water-soaked brush on the surface of the paint for a few seconds. After waiting a while, the surface will soften, and the color will dissolve easily. 2. Transfer to a palette • Transfer the dissolved paint to a palette (a plate is also okay) with a brush, and further adjust the concentration with water to your liking. 3. Draw • You can draw on watercolor paper, as well as Japanese paper and sketchbooks. Notes on Use (Helpful to write when listing!) • Dry thoroughly before storing After use, let the surface dry a little before storing it in the wooden box. Sealing it while wet can cause mold. • Proof of natural materials Because natural pigments are used, they tend to fade more easily when exposed to sunlight compared to synthetic paints. It is recommended to display your artwork away from direct sunlight.
