Watercolour Paints

I've written several blogs about watercolour paint, delving into various aspects such as using granulating paints, pan paints vs tube paints, and understanding pigment codes.

In one blog, I explored the fascinating world of granulating paints, discussing how certain pigments create captivating textures and sedimentation when mixed with water.

Another blog focusses on the debate between pan paints and tube paints, comparing their advantages and disadvantages, helping artists make an informed choice.

Lastly, I delved into the intricacies of understanding pigment codes, decoding the information behind the series of numbers and letters on watercolour paint labels.

Through these blogs, I aim to share my knowledge and passion for watercolour painting, offering insights and guidance to fellow artists.

This set of 12 contains the following colours:
