Schmincke - HORADAM® AQUARELL - finest artists' watercolors, 488 cobalt blue dark, 14 488 044, 1/2 pan

High sheen, and a color similar to gold leaf. A great additional to my watercolor palette.

The most beautiful warm medium brown, absolutely gorgeous! More beautiful than anything I've seen in the Daniel Smith line. I wish this brand offered a fuller range of colors via sellers through Amazon.

compact, convenient, and a must have for traveling artists. I have not used liquid oxgall before but after this, I see little reason to try. I just do a few swipes with a slightly damp brush and mix it in with whatever color I am using and I am pretty much guaranteed to have a perfectly smooth wash of paint. It works well with granulating pigments, I have found, the pigments in Daniel Smith's moonglow has a tendency to separate as it dries if it's too wet. With the oxgall the pigments stayed combined and dried evenly.I feel I should also point out that the pans from Schmincke is slightly shorter than the 'standard' half pans I have. However, they do not taper at the bottom. The difference is not huge or even a problem, but it is noticeable if you have a mix of pans in your palette.

I currently live in a city that has no really excellent art supply stores so I was very happy to be able to purchase Schmincke pan watercolors through Jacksons Art and Amazon. I love the rich colors in the Schmincke line of watercolors and wanted to supplement a previously purchase set of Schmincke pan watercolors with some additional colors. I'm very glad to have been able to purchase these here!

I exclusively use Schmincke Horadam watercolors because I love the reliable quality, high quality pigments, and workability they offer. There are many beautiful and vibrant colors available, and I have built my pallette over several years.Using pans rather than tubes means that I can travel with my paints in my carry-on.I definitely recommend this brand.

I was in the mood for a nice BRIGHT pink. This is it! The paint is good quality, mixes well, and is just fun to play with. Goes a long way toward beating the late winter blahs.

Very happy with this addition to my watercolor collection.

You can never go wrong with Schmincke. The quality of this paint it surreal. The granulation is amazing…

Perfect for my use
