Aqueous Pigment Dispersions for Casein

• Aqueous pigment dispersions are pigments premixed
  and dispersed in water ready to use with casein.
  Pigment dispersions from Rublev Colours contain
  only naturally-derived ingredients, in addition
  to pigment and water, making them ideally suited
  for traditional and natural mediums. Unlike other
  dispersions made for acrylic medium, they do not
  contain solvents, artificial dispersants and
  additives that interfere with natural mediums.

Basic Dispersion Set
Rublev Colours Aqueous Dispersions do not contain
coalescent solvents, artificial dispersing resins
and other additives that interfere with natural
mediums. Aqueous Dispersions make preparing
traditional mediums easy you do not have to
hassle with powders, grinding pigments in medium
and calculating binder ratios to make water-based
paint. They make adding the right amount of paint
binder, such as egg yolk, a no brainer because
the right amount of water is already contained in
the dispersion, simply add egg yolk.

Maya Blue
Maya Blue, developed by the Maya who ruled
Mesoamerica from about 290 to 900 C.E., is a
remarkable pigment based on a blue dye
precipitated onto clay. The blue is perhaps the
most striking color used by Maya artists, a color
so extraordinary that it generated much research
and debate among scientists for more than 50
years. What is particularly interesting about
Maya Blue is that, despite long exposure to light
and high humidity for centuries, it hardly fades.
Its unprecedented stability, defies exposure to
alkalies, acids and chemical solvents. Maya Blue
is a mixture of both inorganic (paylgorskite
clay) and organic (blue dye) elements -- no known
organic pigments today can come close to the
stability of Maya Blue over so many years.
