Pigment 用法的範例文章

Mary is an artist who uses pigments to create her paintings. She has a collection of pigments, each with a different color and texture, that she uses to add depth and dimension to her art. In her latest piece, Mary used a lot of pigment to create a vivid sunset over the ocean. She mixed several pigments together to get the perfect shades of orange, pink, and purple. Mary believes that the quality of the pigment is just as important as the brush strokes and technique used in creating a painting. Without high-quality pigments, the painting would lack the vibrancy and richness that Mary strives for in her work.
