DANIEL SMITH 285250077 Extra Fine Secondary Watercolor Set, 3 Tubes, 15ml

Suprised how much I like and use the Quin. Burnt Orange (PO48) as well as Undersea Green(PB29, PO48, PY150). I use this orange more than the other version of PO48 that I own which is M. Graham’s Quin. Rust. Undersea Green was the color I was most curious about since it’s a 3 pigment color. I was expecting it would become a muddy mess when mixed, but I was wrong and I love the variety of earthy greens I can get.

This set comes with Quinacridone Burnt Orange (a deep earthy orange that when mixed with nickel azo yellow makes a Quinacridone Gold hue and when mixed with blues makes the most beautiful diffused mossy greens, cool browns, and inky blacks), Undersea Green (an earthy multi-pigment blend that has the most spectacular granulation in washes), and Carbazole Violet (a purple that is in my opinion the perfect mixing purple due to its vibrancy and depth). This is a fantastic set of non-standard secondary pigments (with the exclusion of the Carbazole Violet)! It is also such a good deal! $24 USD for 15ml tubes of Daniel Smith! I just looked up what these paints would cost you if you bought them (on amazon) individually. At the time I wrote this review you would spend approximately $48. So you are essentially getting a tube and a half of paint for free! I absolutely adore this set! If you are an amateur watercolorist just starting out GET THIS! If you are an intermediate watercolorist that is wanting to upgrade to a higher quality paint GET THIS! If you are a professional watercolorist wanting to widen your collection of pigments and/or brands GET THIS!

Fabulous colors love them

Like it very much

Good stuff and cheap.

Very unique trio of paints Loving this experiment DSP is making happen now Worth trying

the pigments and brilliance of this water color set are amazing. small amount of the water color paint goes long way and it would last for long time. once you tried this brand you would be hook to it, I know I am and i will adding more color to my collection.

I love these colors, especially the green. Saves a lot of mixing.

I love all their water colors, my paintings are bright and vibrant and I feel confident selling them.
