Here is a simple little beginner tutorial on how to make metallic watercolor paint that does not really need to be mulled using a muller to bind. We will just use our palette knife to incorporate the mica and create a good meld with our homemade binder (or premade if you have some). This tutorial will walk you through the materials you need and how to test your homemade paint.

I go through my watercolor binder recipe and what ingredients and tools you will need, and also the steps on how to make a handmade watercolor paint binder. When you have made your binder you can mix or mull it with artist pigments, mica, or even recycle your old eyeshadow into watercolor paint!
