DANIEL SMITH watercolors magically landed in my lap when a friend’s watercolorist grandmother passed away and I inherited all of her supplies. It was serendipity. My art completely leveled up when I began to use DANIEL SMITH watercolors! I no longer had to fight with my paints or worry about the quality. I love the broad and unique range of earth tones and natural pigments especially in the PrimaTek line for my pet portrait work. But more than the quality and wide selection I love about them, Daniel Smith Artist Materials is more like a world-wide family than it is a brand!  —Ashley Hawkes
