Review: Good & easy-carry starter selection of DS Paint - One can never go wrong with Daniel Smith. Great paint. Good mixing colors. I have these colors personally so can speak to them even though this was for a gift rather than for myself. Lovely useful colors. Great starting place for quality. Handy to have the nice little plastic case too. Not a fan of plastic in general, but it has its useful moments and storage and carry are among those. He will be able to put it in his luggage and not worry and pull it out easily if need be for customs. The water color ground is also a plus, though I would have been just as happy with larger tubes and case. Or a dot card set. Or another little trio of cmyk primaries. In this case I got these and a palette and a dot card set for him to choose the rest of his colors. And a sketch book. Hoping he will enjoy, but we'll find out after Christmas! One can travel with watercolor but one does need to check the airport regs for the size of ziplock required and other things. But this little set is well within travel limits and small/easy to pack. So good for a visiting budding artist.
Review: The BEST paint I’ve ever used in 45 years! - UNBELIEVABLE!! What a DIFFERENCE!! Puts all brands to shame. A little bit goes a long long way. You can use an entire pan of one color of any other brand and still not get the color of one tiny dot of this brand. Well worth every penny. The brilliance is absolutely gorgeous. You can go as light and dark as you want. You CAN create anything with these Daniel Smith brand. I’m switching entirely over to Daniel Smith paints. Adding Arabic Gum makes profound results! I’m in awe! Endless creativity!! It’ll give you new ways to create - possibilities are endless! I can’t say enough how much I love this brand! I’m blown away!!

## Features

- daniel smith is the innovative manufacturer of beautiful watercolors for artists worldwide, and makes the largest range of watercolors of any manufacturer, more than 250 colors. the 250+ color collection includes the exciting primatek watercolors made from minerals (like amethyst) plus other unique colors (like moonglow) not available elsewhere, and luminescent watercolors which allow artists to capture the luminescent colors that exist in nature that regular watercolors cannot capture
- mixing primary colors, yellow, red and blue is the foundation of color mixing to make orange, violet and green secondary colors. working with two different primary sets, cool and warm, expands your color mixing potential. when mixing these 6 essential colors in different combinations, you can paint landscapes, still lifes, portraits whatever you choose!
- the addition of the titanium white watercolor ground is a wonderful opportunity to try out painting with watercolors on different surfaces. the watercolor ground can be applied to nearly any surface; wood, metal, plastic, cardboard, books and more! after the watercolor ground has dried and cured, that surface can now be painted with watercolors - imagine the creative possibilities!
