The Sketcher set is perfect for travel journaling – chronicle the places you encounter and capture them as colorfully illustrated memories. Where will these colors take you?

With a primary triad for mixing bright colours and an earth triad for creating browns and muted colours, this set makes it all quick and easy. Limiting your palette to only six colours helps you master mixing and also allows for expansion down the road to suit your own preferences and favorite subjects”  – Liz Steel

Each of these six half pans is hand-poured. The set comes with a travel case and 9 additional empty pans for mixing or adding colors from your selection of tubes for easier portability.
