Sakura Koi Watercolour Pocket Field Sketch Box 30 Assorted Colours, Acrylic, Multicoloured, 5 Piece Set

Product Information

When you clean the hairs make sure to keep hold of the end with your thumb and finger at all times - don't crush the end just hold it firmly. The Winsor and Newton genuine single-pigment colors have some organic granulation going on, but since the Sakura Koi hues are presumably synthetic imitations, they are smooth and more opaque, like inks. By intensifying the colors on the underside I’m also increasing the sense of light and dark and trying to give a better illusion of three-dimensions.

The only problems with this method is that because there is no longer any control on the flow of water any paint you put on the tip of the brush will have to be more then you think as the water will quickly remove the pigment from the brush and your paper will get soaked more then usual. I used the Koi set for a good while, then when I started to use tube paints I removed some of the Koi colors for my tubes.It features 48 half pan watercolour paints which have been formulated to blend easily and create an endless range of colours. It comes in two parts, the brush head with a cap and the bottle with a stopper - some would say the drawback to this would be that the brush screws on to the left but this isn't really a flaw as you can get used to that.

Vary the color intensity of the orange shapes by charging in some stronger paint here and there to create a bit of variety. And what you'll have is the fibre brush, the black cage supporting it and sponge ring and the black cap with the stalk. The method when applying a glazing technique is that you paint subsequent layers of color, each time leaving the previous layer to dry. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. To make holding more convenient, there’s a little pull-down ring at the bottom of the sketchbox that you can slide over your finger.Don’t forget to add some detail to the eyes by painting a gray contour around the outside, then fill the pupils with a darker valued gray color. The sponge is of a decent length, is very easy to clean [run it under a tape or droplets of water, a little bit of soap for the more stubben stains] but it is of the type of material that if you're too rough you can easily tear it in half!

You can begin to see how the multiple layers of transparent paint produce complex and interesting textures.

Koi’s rich colour assortment offers the choice to create bold hues or soft and subtle shades with the addition of pearlescent, metallic and fluorescent watercolours.

The collection consists of compact, pocket-sized boxes with specially selected colours for painting ‘on the go’ and studio sets with a larger colour range. My first set was a 12-color Cotman travel pallette, and over time I refilled the pans with better paints. Cotman- Cadmium Yellow Hue, Cadmium Red Pale Hue, Yellow Ochre, Ultramarine, Cobalt Blue Hue, Burnt Umber. You not only give direction of what we should do but also why it would improve the quality of the piece. Unfortunatly because of this compact space there really isn't any room for when you wipe your brush over one colour you have to stop halfway otherwise you'll go straight onto the next [this isn't a problem if you want two tone and the blocks are easy to clean.
