Custom Color Sets: Holbein Watercolor Half Pans
You Save: $26.50 (31%)
Introducing Custom Color Sets from the color experts at St. Louis Art Supply! Tell us a little about your artistic interests by checking some of the boxes above. We'll hand-pick a set of colors to get you excited about a new medium or refresh your existing collection with some colors you might not have considered before.
You can choose a set with six, nine, or twelve colors—so you can dip your toe into the water, or jump right in and let us build you a whole custom palette. A free enameled travel box with thumb loop and plenty of mixing space is included with every one of these sets.
This Custom Color Set is built from our very favorite line of color: Holbein Artists' Watercolor half pans. Tube colors are usually thought to be brighter and more concentrated, but that isn't always the case. Holbein Artists' Watercolor half pans are, in fact, more concentrated than Holbein tubes, because they are made by allowing the wet form of the color to dry. Most of the water evaporates, leaving more concentrated pigment and medium behind in the pan.
You'll notice right away that Holbein pans seem to glow when water is applied (you can see this in the second image of this product listing.) Their superior transparency and color intensity continues to impress as you start to mix and apply paint to paper. Holbein's bright colors are the absolute brightest we have seen, and their muted colors and earth tones are subtle and well-chosen.
Holbein colors are made to the highest standards in Japan.
