Liquid watercolor with tube-quality pigments flows through pens and brushes
Liquid watercolor that performs like tube paint, Hydrus delivers the same lightfast permanency and brilliant transparency traditional watercolorists expect, just in a more versatile format. Every color meets professional archival standards with permanent pigments that resist fading, yet the liquid form opens techniques impossible with tubes. The dropper cap makes measuring precise ratios for consistent color mixing simple, while high pigment density means colors stay vibrant even at diluted washes.
This format excels where traditional watercolor struggles. Load technical pens for controlled line work that maintains watercolor's transparent quality. Fill airbrushes for graduated backgrounds without the settling issues of reconstituted tube paint. Use straight from the bottle for intense glazes, or dilute for delicate atmospheric washes, the pigment suspension stays uniform throughout. Titanium White transforms the transparent colors into opaque gouache when intermixed, or creates soft pastels with just a few drops.
The convenience factor matters during extended sessions. No palette scraping, no dried paint waste, no mixing interruptions. Squeeze drops directly onto your palette, blend colors with precision, and return unused paint to bottles rather than watching it harden. One-ounce bottles provide substantial volume while dropper caps prevent spills and control application.
