Cooperation with various international producers
LUTEA markets a range of organic colours in the form of pigments and watercolours for the Fine Arts and crafts. Lutea values a line of production of tinctorial plants in Europe for the extraction of Indigo blue, among other dyes sought, both for their colours and for their medicinal properties. I am committed to the development of all aspects of the company, from cultivation to dye extraction, to the chemical transformation of pigments to the marketing of colours. Collaboration and transmission are key objectives of Lutea. I regularly provide training in schools and associations as well as to individuals. Color is a language omnipresent in all areas of our lives and this since the human has traced and given to see its history. I have the chance, and how much joy, to be able to reveal the colors from plants and mineral raw materials which, transmitted to the artists, will be tools of vibrant expressions and reflections of life.
