For this lunar new year, the year of the dragon, I've made a special video.
Dragon's Blood, or NR31 is a pigment made from the resin of the Dracaena Cinnabari tree.
In ancient times, both the Romans as the Chinese used this pigment as well as the highly poisonous natural Cinnabar for Dragon’s Blood.
The resin from the tree was mostly used though, not only for paint but also as a dye and used for medicinal ends.
When dissolved in alcohol, a true deep and dark blood red color can be obtained and used as ink.
Because of it’s name, people started to believe that the pigment was an actual product of the blood of dragons, slain in battle.
Although I would like to believe that I have a jar full of dried and ground dragons blood.. It’s nowadays obtained from several red resins of different plants, mine coming from the original Dracaena Cinnabari tree.
Here's the process of making handmade watercolor paint out of Dragon's Blood resin pigment. It's not the best light in the video since I made it very late. Because of the smell, I won't make this color during the day. The smell tends to linger for a long time and I'm not really a fan of it.
“No actual dragons were harmed for the process of making this video”
