Description
For the aspiring artist, the Grumbacher Academy Watercolor 12 Piece Set is an ideal starter kit for building a comprehensive watercolor palette. This premium set includes 10 vibrant, highly pigmented Academy watercolors, a round size 6 Academy watercolor brush, and a watercolor mixing palette. The 10 carefully selected colors provide a solid foundation for creating a wide range of hues, from rich secondary colors to subtle earth tones.
The two reds and two blues in the set can be mixed to produce a broad spectrum of secondary colors, which can be further enhanced by adding black and earth tones. The inclusion of Chinese White allows for the creation of opaque shades, making it possible to paint on dark or tinted papers or add special effects over dried watercolor. The Academy watercolors are renowned for their excellent lightfast rating, ensuring that the vibrant colors remain true over time.
The Academy Watercolor Round Size 6 Brush is a durable and versatile tool, designed to hold a generous amount of liquid and deliver smooth, fluid strokes. The seamless brass-plated nickel ferrule and varied taklon filaments ensure that the brush maintains its shape and performance with repeated use. Additionally, the brush is easy to clean and less prone to breakage than many other watercolor brushes.
The set’s watercolor mixing palette is a lightweight, compact companion that is perfect for artists on-the-go. Featuring 7 small wells and 2 medium-sized wells, the palette provides ample space for mixing, diluting, and testing colors. The bright white surface allows artists to see the exact color they are creating, and the palette cleans easily with soap and water.
