DANIEL SMITH 285610005 Extra Fine Essentials Introductory Watercolor, 6 Tubes, 5ml, Blue/Transparent/Yellow

I got these as a gift for my mother-in-law who is really into watercolors and she loves them! It’s a great value for the brand and quality the colors. They are very rich and vivid. Will be ordering more in the future!

I love these water colors...it was a good price to be able to get several colors to try this brand of paint

Good quality. Fast shipping

Phenomenal

These watercolors are exceptional to work with and color

Really nice. Good colours. Pricey - but Amazon gave me a brilliant price for these, so I’m very pleased indeed. Top quality.

OMG...I know what people have been talking about now. These watercolors are beautiful, not overly vibrant but just true color, they lay down perfectly...not a bit of graininess and mixing is a breeze. Started with the smaller set to try them out but will be adding on soon.

Fantastic. Great consistency and beautiful colours. Little paint goes a long way. I bought them for the gramulation and they dont disappoint . I am smitten.

Excellent starter kit for someone wanting to get more serious with watercolor painting.

Id like to start by saying that Im a hobbyist who loves to try new stuff all the time. Im a amateur in every sense of the word. But I am curious and I enjoying learning new things and dabbling in new hobbies. And on and off for the last year or so it has been watercolors. I started off using student grade paints (koi). Those were pretty good but the more I learned about watercolors, the more I wanted to experiment with high quality paints and learn to mix colors. I have since collected many paints of both student and artist quality. There is definitely a difference among the two. In my humble opinion, this is a great set to start with. There is a warm and cool version of the three primary colors, all with single pigments. If you want to dive into coloring harmony and color mixing, start here. In fact, when interested friends ask me about starting to paint with water color, I like to recommend this set. It is economical and logical. At the moment I am putting aside all my other palettes of watercolors and focusing on these 6 colors. I have filled a ceramic palettes with 9 wells. And I periodically squirt more color in as needed. And I can easily wipe away the mixing areas. No concerns about staining. Ive used these on traditional watercolor paper, Bristol paper and even some pages in s coloring book. The vibrancy of these paints is wonderful in any of these surfaces. Anyway, I am attaching some photos.
