The natural category has about 40 natural mineral colors, and glaze firing can make hundreds of colors. General classification of rock paints use the number of 1 to 15 and use white to distinguish between pigments. The bigger the number are, the smaller and lighter the particles ; the smaller the number, the more coarse the particles with deeper color.

Laminar is one of the most important white pigments in gouache. Modern art mentions laminar, which should refer to the natural oyster shell as raw material, and is made using the traditional water sieve method.
(3)Pigment
Pigments are made of laminar and white clay. The color is diverse and cheaper; the effect is more soften than rock painting.
(4)Glue
Generally refers to the animal's endothelial or cartilage. Through a special process of boiling extracted and purified to become collagen, but due to the absence of preservatives, it is easy for the glue to fall off, so you have to be very careful while using it. You can buy pre-mixed glue in the market; if you want to mix it by yourself you can also buy the dry glue too.
