Collection: Tube Paint (Water-Based Color Paint)

Tube Paints That Add Revolutionary Convenience to Nihonga

Traditional Nihonga painting typically requires grinding suihi pigments in a mortar and mixing them with animal glue (nikawa), a process that takes time and preparation.
Tube-type Nihonga paints eliminate this step, allowing you to squeeze the paint directly onto a palette and begin painting immediately.
While preserving the expressive qualities of suihi pigments, these paints introduce a new level of convenience for modern creators.
Please note that tube paints do not contain nikawa; when creating finished or mountable works, be sure to mix in separately sold nikawa solution.
