Titanium White
Titanium White No. 1 is the most brilliant white in my range, suitable for crisp, cool, opaque, light shades. If you want a powerful mixer that lightens , then this is it. Although not subtle, this white is the most suitable for a bright, fresh palette.
Titanium White is a single-pigment Michael Harding watercolour made with PW6.
It is opaque, excellent lightfastness, non-granulating, non-staining, tinting strength 1.
