Essentials Watercolor Paint Set, 9 Piece, Multicolor

The DANIEL SMITH Essentials Mixing Set is a wonderful collection for beginners in watercolor painting, seasoned artists who want to revisit the fundamentals, and those who need a basic mixing set for travel. This set includes 6 (5ml) watercolor paints - 2 sets of primary colors: Hansa Yellow Light, New Gamboge, Quinacridone Rose, Pyrrol Scarlet, French Ultramarine, and Phthalo Blue GS, which are known as a "split primary." The set also comes with a DANIEL SMITH logo plastic storage case, a mixing guide, and a 1 oz bottle of DANIEL SMITH Titanium White Watercolor Ground, allowing you to paint with watercolors on a variety of surfaces.

DANIEL SMITH is an innovative manufacturer of high-quality watercolor paints for artists worldwide, offering the largest range of watercolor colors, with more than 250 shades. This extensive collection includes the exciting Primatek watercolors made from natural minerals (such as amethyst), unique colors (like Moonglow) not available elsewhere, and luminescent watercolors that capture the luminous hues found in nature, which regular watercolors cannot replicate.

Mixing the primary colors - yellow, red, and blue - is the foundation for creating the secondary colors of orange, violet, and green. By working with two different primary sets, cool and warm, you can expand your color mixing potential. When you combine these 6 essential colors in various ways, the creative possibilities are endless, whether you're painting landscapes, still lifes, or portraits.

The addition of the Titanium White Watercolor Ground further expands the creative possibilities. This ground can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including wood, metal, plastic, cardboard, and even books, allowing you to paint with watercolors on materials beyond traditional watercolor paper. Once the ground has dried and cured, you can unleash your imagination and explore new artistic avenues.
