Some sets also include a brush to make it easier for those new to watercolour or those using watercolour on the go. I was delighted when it arrived, securely packaged, this set is a compact - go anywhere - set of beautiful colours, which would meet the expectations of any artist. The distillation of petroleum yields an ever widening range of organic pigments which are often termed as 'modern'. Includes: Iridescent Blue, Yellow Gold, Bronze, Red Copper, Silver, Pewter, Iridescent Black, Iridescent White, and Travel Brush. Formulated to create uniform consistency, the transparent quality of Cotman Watercolours are perfect for new users.
This is a well designed box of half pans, with a good open and close mechanism, unlike several other brands which seem to have very cheap catches on their boxes which I assume will not last well. Winsor and Newton have produced this economical watercolour paint by using less expensive materials rather than the more costly pigments without compromising on quality and colour clarity. Our extensive range has over 28,000 products, which are constantly tried and tested by our in-house experts, teachers, and artists. If long term permanence is required with Cotman, use only colours rated AA or A which are recommended as permanent for artists' use. To be sure of the permanence of any colour, please refer to the ratings on the colour chart or Cotman tube/pan labels.
The pans are well put together and easy to use and the small paintbrush which came in the set is practical too. Both high quality pigments and more affordable alternatives have been selected, to ensure the best value without compromise on quality. We will use your data to personalise and improve your experience on our digital platforms and to send you relevant products and offers we think you'll love. Since the greatest cost comes from the source pigments, the more expensive of these are substituted with alternatives to create hues that still provide high tinting strength and transparency. Half pans are popular with artists who paint infrequently, as the paints may be left for a long periods of time between uses, without affecting their quality.
Therefore, being able to choose from the widest possible range of pigments means that you have greater choice and flexibility to develop your work and technique. The watercolours in this range offer high levels of permanency, excellent transparency and superb tinting strength. Dive into a spectrum of rich, vibrant hues and explore their transparency and depth, allowing for exquisite layering and blending. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Natural hair brushes, particularly Red Sable brushes, tend to be favoured by artists working with watercolour.Create your own stunning masterpiece with this wonderful Winsor and Newton Cotman Watercolour Paint. This pocket-sized box has an integral mixing palette with 12 assorted Cotman watercolour half pans, plus a Sceptre pocket brush.
The range offers a balanced spectrum of 40 colours which are available in Half Pans, 8ml tubes and 21ml tubes. As part of our ongoing sustainability journey as a B Corp certified brand, we’re transitioning the packaging of our Watercolour Sets to 100% recycled plastic. Cotman Water Colours are a range of water colours that are made to a high quality standard but are kept to an economical level by replacing some of the more costly pigments with less expensive alternatives. Used either mixed with other Cotman watercolours or as a medium in their own right, you can enjoy adding another iridescent dimension to your work. The hairs are particularly strong at the brush’s fine tip, allowing the brush to be used both delicately and aggressively.This studio set is ideal for beginners, yet also functions perfectly as professional watercolour paints. The little individually wrapped watercolours are very cute though, and I've been told by an artist that they will last a long time.
