The vision in the formulation of DANIEL SMITH watercolors was twofold​; First and foremost, to produce watercolors that are the best in lightfastness and permanence.Second, to offer a selection of truly unique colors.DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are formulated to meet and exceed the highest industry standards​ for the manufacture of artist’s paints, and every batch made is tested and analyzed for its performance qualities.DANIEL SMITH is truly the worldwide leader of watercolors for artists with 240+ beautiful colors in the 15ml watercolors, the most of any manufacturer​. Many are traditional colors relied upon by all artists, and there are many “truly unique” colors made only by DANIEL SMITH that have become so important to watercolor artists.PrimaTek Watercolors are made from minerals, often semi precious minerals, that have been ground into pigments, mixed with gum arabic (the binder) and milled into PrimaTek Watercolors​. The first was Lapis Lazuli Genuine in 1998, since then, many more have been added such as Amethyst Genuine, Piemontite Genuine and Serpentine Genuine. Most of these colors have wonderful granulating effects that some artists have called “magical”.Luminescent Watercolors have special optical effects perfect for subjects that have a sparkle, sheen, or reflective glow​ like the iridescence of hummingbird feathers or the sheen of metals.Cadmium Hues, DANIEL SMITH has developed safe and vibrant Cadmium Hues with the density and richness of cadmium colors without the cadmium pigment​. Virtually identical in color to their namesakes, they are cleaner in mixtures and much stronger in tints. The working properties – staining power, semi-transparency and excellent lightfastness – are nearly identical to those of the low-soluble cadmium colors DANIEL SMITH previously manufactured.Some unique colors are created exclusively by DANIEL SMITH​ like Cascade Green, Green Gold and Moonglow. DANIEL SMITH also finds unusual pigments to make colors like Mayan Red, Lunar Blue and Enviro-Friendly Red Iron Oxide to provide more choices for artists. Other colors are from pigments DANIEL SMITH has sourced, often from very specific locations, colors like Burgundy Yellow Ochre, Monte Amiata Natural Sienna and Roasted French Ochre. DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are a favorite of artists all over the world​, from professional artists to the beginning watercolorists because of the beautiful colors, consistent performance and lasting color or lightfastness.DANIEL SMITH Watercolors are packed with high quality pigments using pure gum arabic as the binder – no fillers.​ For each color, DANIEL SMITH selects the perfect grind to yield particle sizes that maximize the qualities inherent in the pigment, balancing maximum pigment load with minimum vehicle content.DANIEL SMITH offers many ways to experience their Watercolors as well as providing extra creative means for artists with their Watercolor Grounds, Masking Fluid and Walnut Ink. 15ml Watercolors​, available in more than 240 colors, the most of any manufacturer.5ml Watercolors​, available in 88 of the most popular colors DANIEL SMITH makes.Watercolor Sticks​, 51 popular DANIEL SMITH Watercolors shaped into stick form to draw and paint with, a new way to expressively use watercolors.Watercolor Dot Cards, ​a great way to try DANIEL SMITH Watercolors without buying whole tubes of paint.

Due to the paint's nature, it is not terribly concentrated, but the paint's unique, lovely, jagged granulating/clumping effect is well worth the price. If placed in a palette to use as a pan color, it takes longer than most colors to re-wet. Review: True Artist Quality Aquarelle - the best aquarelle paints i’ve ever used if you're looking to get the water to work for you, these paints bleed and spread like no other. i got these to try my hand at effects like Nicolas Lopez and if your paint and paper are quality (thick on thick) and you have a proper fine mist sprayer….the effect is incredible (below is a first run) ## Features - DANIEL SMITH is the Innovative Manufacturer of Beautiful Watercolors for Artists Worldwide, and makes the largest range of watercolors of any manufacturer, more than 240 colors. The 240+ color collection includes the exciting PrimaTek watercolors made from minerals (like Amethyst) plus other unique colors (like Moonglow) not available elsewhere, and Luminescent Watercolors which allow artists to capture the luminescent colors that exist in nature that - Water frees this amazing three-pigment blend to perform miracles. Watch and wait as Anthraquinoid Red floats, Ultramarine Blue settles and Viridian grays the resulting violet color. Selectively blot and lift a surface wash to expose delicate blue-greens. A description of the fascinating light and dark washes can never match a personal experience! Use Moonglow in shadows and as a silhouette pigment and enjoy its reaction to salt application in background washes. Its neutral tinting property makes it effective with almost all the DANIEL SMITH watercolors. Try introducing the Luminescent Interference pigments to areas of wet, damp or dry Moonglow. Look to Undersea Green as a companion pigment. And try a Moonglow sky and long shadows on sunset snow scenes. - Excellent Lightfastness, Transparent, Granulating, Low staining - PG 18, PB 29, PR 177 - Conforms to ASTM D4236 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001PT6Y46 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #329 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #16 in Art Paints | | Brand Name | DANIEL SMITH | | Color | Moonglow | | Color Code | #F5DEB3 | | Container Type | Tube | | Coverage | Medium | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (8,620) | | Dry Time In Hours | 24 | | Finish Type | Matte | | Full Cure Time | 24 Hours | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00743162009114 | | Included Components | Paint Tube | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Waterproof | False | | Item Form | Solid | | Item Volume | 0.5 Fluid Ounces | | Item Weight | 0.04 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Daniel Smith | | Model Name | DNLSMTH15-284600057 | | Model Number | 284600057 | | Paint Type | Watercolor | | Part Number | 284600057 | | Size | 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Crack Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Interior | | Surface Recommendation | Paper | | UPC | 799198826416 743162009114 | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DANIEL SMITH - **Color:** Moonglow - **Finish Type:** Matte - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Indoor - **Item Volume:** 0.5 Fluid Ounces - **Paint Type:** Watercolor - **Size:** 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** Crack Resistant - **Specific Uses For Product:** Interior - **Surface Recommendation:** Paper ## Images ![Moonglow - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Ucp1qZhhL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How would you use Moonglow? What makes it special? It seem like it’s dark brown.** A: It works as a shadow color, and because it's not a black, it doesn't kill your local color. It's not really a brown, it's a combination of three pigments. You still have to use care or brighter colors turn muddy, but it's WONDERFUL for most applications in shadow. Also, it granulates if you want it to. Yummy! You can use it alone for cloud shadows or other neutral color objects. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely granulating blackish color *by Y***D on January 28, 2026* This is a very granulating greenish black color.

Get this. Practice with it. Love your life again! *by I***Y on September 8, 2021* Yes: PR83 is basically disappearing ink. But you will enjoy painting with it SO MUCH that it will not matter. This is handprint.com's most hated pigment, I know, but it is really unbeatable for (as handprint says) best "psychological red" ever. DS is a good brand for alizarin (cheap for me), but maybe even student paint PR83 is what can make you fall in love with watercolour painting! It GLOWS! I'll keep buying this fugitive paint (and really, if you do scrapbooks, or make prints of your paintings, it lasts "long enough"). As for permanents, they SUCK. Ignore handprint when it says, "use perylene maroon!" (PR 179) because that's some orange brown MUCK that I've learned to detest. Imo, the ones that suck "least" (for a crimson that "glows" pink), is a few brands PR 264 (duh: pyrrol crimson) which M. Graham even calls "Permanent Aliz Crimson" but it's "sticky" to paint with; Schminke calls theirs "Ruby Red Deep" and it's the closest I've found to Alizarin Crimson and why Schminke doesn't market Ruby Red Deep as "Perm Aliz Crimson" is beyond me. They could make bank changing the name! Winsor and Newton's Perm. Aliz Crimson is a "go to" for many (if you don't want to waste your money)... but I find their crimson (PR 206, quin burnt scarlet) trends BROWN, and doesn't even look like Aliz Crimson (PR 83) unless you paint at mass tone and aren't looking for the original's mostly-water "pink". But even when you find your acceptable crimson, NO PAINT will ever match PR 83 for pure joy of painting. It lifts cleanly off cotton paper, it blends down to the strange/amazing pink undertone that is just unmatchable, and I think all watercolourists should keep tubes of PR 83 on their palettes for their down-in-the-dumps days. Even WASHES are beautiful! Give it to kids and watch their minds get blown as they see what this paint can DO! (Just take a picture of the painting and get rid of the original before kids see their lovely paintings go bye-bye from this fugitive pigment). It makes opera pink look WEAK and lasts longer than opera pink! Get the PR 83. ❤️ --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/10215350-moonglow](https://www.desertcart.be/products/10215350-moonglow) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
