The challenging process of selecting a useful, versatile range of paints has been done for you with this set of 15 watercolors.

Whether your aim is to paint botanicals, landscapes, urban scenes, animals, portraits…you can mix all the colours you need with this set. This palette showcases the many characteristics of watercolour – some are transparent, some are opaque, some semi-transparent, some staining and some granulating. Some have two or even three of these characteristics. They are also largely single-pigments – they are carefully chosen to intermix to create a world of colors. Importantly, they are all reliable pigments with a lightfast rating of I or II.”  – Jane Blundell
