Trying new watercolours

Comments

Good one Lewis! I think Jackson’s paints in general are very good quality and more reasonable than others. Always nice to have a new set of any paints isn’t it.

New paints worked very well. Love the characters.

The new paints are looking bright and cheerful on your characters 🙂

Always wonderful whatever paint you use. Amazing how some are easier to use than others. White knights are really cheap and very good quality.

Thanks again for your comments. I've used White Knights watercolours Carole, they are good. This time I wanted less colours but whole pans, White Knights on offer at the time were all half-pans. Also they are Russian...I'm a bit off them at the moment. It was either Cotmans or these. I like Cotmans but thought I'd try these...very pleased so far.

Expressions are your thing Lew. It's a wonderful talent. Love the top left.

Needed new paints, thought I'd try Jackson's own brand. Got a 12 colour full pan set. Not a very scientific test, I prefer to paint what I usually paint. Four separate things, on a whim I sploshed colour in the gaps between them. Love the paints, super rich colours.
