I purchased "dry" gum arabic ("tears"?) and want to prepare gum arabic
solution. Can you please help me about the method/formula?

I have potassium dichromate (dry - powder) the following (half pan form)
watercolors: sepia, alizarin crimson and gamboge (all windsor newton cotman
series). Is this "arsenal of raw materials" ;) enough for starting gum
bichromate? What is the method to mix half pan watercolors with gum arabic
solution?

Regards,
Loris.
