This blend doesn't just capture the variegated depths of algae's color, but—with lots of water left to pool—the fractalesque quality of its growth patterns. One of our favorite Ultra-Blends that ranges from deep brown to sand, with hints of spirulina-bright green throughout! CfM Ultra-Blends are custom colors with endless possibilities! Use them with just a bit of water for full, even saturation, or add more water (and a bit more!), let it all pool and dry undisturbed on your paper, and discover worlds upon magical worlds as the colors separate and settle out!

The first eight colors inspired by our OG color-separating blend, CfM Riverbed ! We wanted to try our hand at making even more layered colors—and once we got going, we couldn't stop! Team members were texting ideas, swatches and color scraps covered our work tables, and our resident poets began thinking up fun names . . . while in the span of a week two colors turned into three which turned into seven . . . you get the idea! Add a Mini Matte Gold Travel Brush to the middle row, and get playful with this dynamic starter set! CfM Ultra-Blends are custom colors with endless possibilities!

Case for Making Synthetic Indigo
Indigo was one of our first handmade watercolors, a must-have in a palette! This rich synthetic color simulates Genuine Indigo and provides a wide range of tones—at its darkest it appears almost black! Both colors are fantastic for layering, glazing, and color mixing (a little bit goes a long way!) and are wonderfully opaque at full saturation. Genuine Indigo is derived from the Indigofera tinctoria plant through a fermentation process, and further refined to achieve greater saturation and intensity.

Case for Making Fluorescent Green
An ultra-bright synthetic! Like all our fluorescents, this fun glowy green is opaque and super smooth. Fluorescents absorb invisible UV light energy and reemit it at a higher visible wavelength. This enhances the appearance of the pigment, delivering those eye-catching, radiant colors we love! Fluorescents are also fantastic for mixing a bit of brightness into core colors. Let the party begin! Important Notes on Fluorescents!: The amazing neon qualities of fluorescents are difficult to capture in a scan or photograph.

Case for Making CfM Oxalis
CfM Oxalis captures the cheery yellow of the California wildflower also known as Woodsorrel, which Bay Area locals might remember from childhood as Sourgrass. Here in San Francisco, Oxalis seems to pop up from every available patch of soil in mid-February, and we wanted to celebrate this annual harbinger of spring! Oxalis flowers make a wonderful, potent natural yellow dye, and CfM Oxalis was inspired by the flower and the slightly more orange dye bath.

Case for Making CfM Cocoa
Our ultimate blended brown! Cocoa is a careful mix of 6 (!!) of our core collection colors—the most out of all our blends, with Lime and Ruby in close second. Compared to Burnt Umber Dark and Reddish—both beautiful, single origin earth pigments that lend texture and transparency—Cocoa is a smooth, opaque alternative with a lovely ultra-matte finish. The cool thing about Cocoa is that the colors used to make this blend include two different reds, two yellows, and two blues! The fact that mixing the three primaries together creates an unlimited amount of neutrals never ceases to amaze us!

We're so excited to offer a curated, rotating selection of our handmade watercolors in Art Toolkit's cutest mini pans, so you can build your own ultra-portable set! Seconds quality means there are some deeper cracks in the paint, and the pans might be filled slightly low—or maybe a bit too high! These variations do not affect the integrity of the paint. The Art Toolkit Pocket Palette can fit up to 24 mini pans; the Demi Palette can fit up to 12. The mini pans are exactly half the length of Art Toolkit's standard pans, so you can mix-and-match sizes in your palette!
