    I used to watercolor when I was in elementary school and Id just started getting back into it; but this is on a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. As a kid I was used to using the rectangular Crayola palettes where you dip your brush into the water and then into a well of solid paint and then onto the paper. But, oh my god wow, the Winsor & Newton Cotman water color tubes are in a completely different league. Both brands (Crayola and Winsor & Newton Cotman) are equally good but are definitely better suited for different age groups. Heres what I liked and didnt like (or I guess the things I needed to get used to) about this product: Likes: -Good value; the tubes are deceivingly small but the amount of paint you use each time is almost microscopic so a little goes a long way -Nice variety of colors -All paints are very highly pigmented -Metal tube prevents air from entering the tube and drying out the paint -Paints can be mixed together to customize new shades -Opacity of color can be adjusted by the amount of water you add Aspects That Definitely Have A Learning Curve To Em: -Amount of paint you need to put down-->I learned this the hard way, DO NOT, do NOT squirt out the same amount as your would acrylic paint, in the tube, the paint is incredibly concentrated and so when you add water to it, if you squirt out a lot of paint, youll end up with a lot of water coloring paint and not know what to do with it -Do I add water to the paint or vice versa? -->Im still not sure which way it goes but I find it easiest to first add the paint to my palette (since essentially Im just dabbing the tip of the tube onto the palette) and then adding in water -Making new colors-->this can be done couple of way. So far Ive found 2. The first way is to dab the colors you want to mix first onto the palette and then add water. The second way, which I found is helpful when you dont want to waste colors that youve already added water to, is to take some of a colored water (i.e. a previous color youve made) and add it to either another colored water or to new dab of paint. (ex. dab of red from tube + blue water = purple water)

    I didnt like the colors in this set. They also were more difficult to use than previous paints that I had used.
