Embrace Sustainability with Gum Arabic Powder for Your Paint Recipes
Gum Arabic, also known as gum acacia, is a natural plant-based binder that plays a vital role in many paint recipes. Sourced from the hardened sap of various species of the acacia tree, this versatile binder is essential for artists looking for eco-friendly alternatives. Embrace a sustainable approach to your art by choosing our Gum Arabic powder, and help us save tomorrow.
Why Choose Our Gum Arabic Powder:
Artist Grade Gum Arabic Powder: Contains 85g (3oz.) of high-quality Gum Arabic powder for the best performance in your paint recipes.
Easy Preparation: Dissolve the powder in distilled water to create a versatile binder for various paint recipes, including professional watercolors, gouache, and egg tempera.
Natural and Eco-Friendly: Gum Arabic is a plant-based product derived from the hardened sap of the acacia tree, making it gentle on the environment.
Sustainable Packaging: Our gum arabic powder comes in a 100% biodegradable bag to reduce your ecological footprint.
Versatile Use: Suitable for a wide range of artistic applications, Gum Arabic is an essential addition to your art supplies, enabling you to create interesting textural effects in your paintings.
Non-Toxic and Safe: Our Gum Arabic powder is safe for expectant moms and health-conscious artists. However, please note that it is not edible.
Environmentally Friendly Cleanup: Our powder does not pollute soil or waterways during brush and tool cleaning, unlike synthetic binders.
Incorporating Gum Arabic in Your Art
By incorporating Gum Arabic into your artistic process, you can enjoy the benefits of a natural, eco-friendly binder while supporting sustainable art practices. Whether you're making emulsions or working with watercolors, gouache, or other mediums, our powder offers an environmentally responsible choice that doesn't compromise on quality or performance and it creates interesting textural effects with natural pigments. You can also extend the shelf life of your paint by using Gum Arabic as a binder.
Prepare Gum Arabic in a Safe and Easy Way
Preparing gum arabic is a simple process that you can do at home with minimal tools. It is important to follow safety precautions and use distilled water to create a smooth and consistent binder. Start by heating distilled water in a pan, then slowly add the powder while stirring continuously until the gum arabic completely dissolves. Keep the mixture at a low heat, and continue warming until it reaches the desired consistency. If you notice any lumps, you can strain the mixture through a fine sieve to achieve a smoother texture.
Storing Larger Quantities of Gum Arabic
To prepare gum arabic for storage, boil water and gradually add powdered gum, stirring continuously until it dissolves completely. Add drops of clove oil to deter mold growth and extend the shelf life of your prepared gum arabic. Store large quantities in airtight containers, and prepare small batches for painting projects to ensure the best watercolors and watercolor washes.
Optimize Storage Conditions to Extend Shelflife
Storing gum arabic properly can extend its shelf life and ensure that it remains in optimal condition for an extended period. Keep it primarily in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store larger quantities in airtight containers to prevent contamination and protect the powder from humidity. For smaller quantities, use resealable bags or small jars to maintain freshness.
Maximize the Benefits of Gum Arabic in Your Art
Invest in your art and the future of our planet by choosing Gum Arabic for your art supplies. Embrace the full potential of your creativity while contributing to a more sustainable tomorrow. By incorporating Gum Arabic in your paintings, you can extend the shelf life and enhance the vibrancy of your artwork, making it a valuable addition to your artistic toolkit.

Gum arabic's versatility allows you to experiment with various painting techniques and create stunning textural effects.

The possibilities for creative expression are endless.

I used gum Arabic powder to add consistency to a homemade ink. I was very pleased with the outcome. The product is very fine and easy to mix. I have been very happy with it and for the low price I have thought about making a cottage industry of home-made inks.

Consistent between batches
I've purchased this twice now for use in gum bichromate printing and mixing with watercolors. This gum arabic is consistent in quality and color. I add a bit of thymol to preserve, but even before I did that it didn't seem to go bad after being mixed for over a month.

Make your own watercolors!
I'm using this to make watercolor paints from eyeshadows. It works perfectly for that.

magical stuff
This works so well. We made your watercolor recipe with honey and the earth pigments, and the paint came out beautifully smooth and rich. Plus it smells great.

Love that it's natural!
Worked really well for my daughters cat-tortoise costume, the coverage is pretty decent, so you don't actually have to use that much

Guitar repair
Worked great on a touch up repair of a crack on a guitar. Mix with alcohol, add shellac, and then paint into crack. Matches wood tones nicely.

Impeccable service
Since the beginning, I’ve been accompanied with such professional woman to answer every (many!) questions I had with patience and care! Thank you Emma, I really appreciate it!
A dream set for painting a fall landscape. Mixes and feels like a heavy body liquitex or golden acrylic. Smooth & buttery texture. Blends well, saturated, covers well, easy cleanup with water. Some beautiful earth pigments.
These paints are sensitive to cool/cold temperatures. Lots of warnings on the website. My kit did sit 24 hours in an outside mail box 10C … (my fault, there are delivery notifications). It made the purple quite thick, but with a little water & a palette knife it is quite lovely.
Highly recommend you try these natural acrylik paints. If you’re getting this set, I’d recommend getting an extra white. 😁

Easter egg kit
My first time using these natural powder paints, a little bit messy but easy to clean up! I accidentally added too much water to a few but it was still a nice colour pay off, more like a water colour. The paint was easy to use and the wooden eggs are a great sustainable option, that you can keep forever! I would recommend, great for kids
