Well, the "how" is a chemistry of pigments and binders, but the "why" it's sold in shiny cans is often about profit and shelf-life, loading it with volatile organic compounds that off-gas toxins. My life as an illustrator is all about colour, but my nose knows better—cheap, strong-smelling paints gave my Amma headaches in our closed haveli courtyards. So I disagree that good paint needs that sting; I now seek out natural, low-VOC options, even if they cost more, because her health isn't a compromise.
