Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolor, 5ml, Cerulean Blue Red Shade

Whoever came up with color is brilliant, pun intended. It's bright and beautiful and enhances the colors next to it. Being professional quality, it's a joy to work with. It performs exactly as you want and expect it to perform. A must for every watercolor palette.

I am a beginner at watercolor, but because I was frustrated with the results I was getting with cheap paints and paper, I decided to get the good paints and 100% cotton paper, even though the cost was a stretch for me. The difference it makes is phenomenal and suddenly I like my paintings. After a lot of research and reading of reviews I decided on Winsor and Newton, and I knew from the very first time I used them that they were a game changer for me. The paint is highly pigmented, goes a long way, rewets excellently, and the colors are beautiful and can be layered effectively. I am delighted with these paints. If you are doing watercolor, even if you are a beginner, get good paints like these, and use 100% cotton paper. You will be glad you did.
