## Description

From the manufacturer PWC 2025

Review: Get them - I only received these late today and am already so excited about them. I bought the Cotman set five years ago, when I knew nothing about watercolour. I thought they were expensive at the time, but have since spent a small fortune on art materials. This set cost me double that for less paints. Am I bothered? Er, no I am not! I have already had a little play around and noticed a VAST difference between these and the student paints. Don’t believe anyone who tells you different. The layering is incredible, no muddying, just pure, beautiful, sheer layers. I am so glad I decided to get these, after a tone of research. I do have other paints, Daniel Smith, Holbein etc and they are lovely. But these ….. Heaven, I’m in heaven. Enjoy!
Review: Professional Quality Warercolours - A wonderful selection of 24 Winsor & Newton half pan professional quality artists watercolours secured in a tin box, these paints offer high quality pigments and lightfastness and a great selection of colours. This tin box is a little over 8 inches long by 3 inches and seems durable enough. This item is not cheap and I would therefore recommend the affordable Winsor & Newton Cotman paint set for beginners and those wanting to fill sketchbooks where lightfastness and quality is not so critical - unless of course you can afford the best regardless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a very good set of water colours
*by C***R on 11 April 2015*

This is a very good set of water colours. The quality is excellent and the range of colours is very practical for most subjects. Applying the colour is such a delight as the colour itself is so pure and the colours mix and blend very easily. It is also easy to lift the colour out with your damp paint brush if you have made a mistake. Highly recommended. After having used this set for over a year overall most of the colours performed well. Viridian was included in my set and the colour was very weak and poorly formulated (there were bits of pigment which were very hard to dissolve). After finishing with it I have switched to Schmincke pthalo green which is very versatile and transparent. I might go back to Viridian but would buy in a tube or use a different manufacturer.
