Info

Every painting has a story. Daniel Smith's goal is to make the painting process as memorable as your finished masterpiece. Daniel Smith have spent eighteen years developing the finest and most complete line of watercolor paint so you can create your own unique vision.

When you choose Daniel Smith Extra Fine' Watercolors, your work will benefit from the extensive research put into all of their materials. Their passion for color is only the beginning; the rest of the story is yours to tell.

Building a Watercolor Palette
Since Daniel Smith started making their Extra Fine Watercolors in 1993, customers have responded by telling us about their favourite colors and combinations. Although each artist's method of color selection is unique, most agree to start with basics, add strong secondary tones, and mix in unique and interesting favourites.

Bold Basics Set the Stage for Brilliant Results
The key to a successful palette starts with high-quality paint in primary tones. Beginners to the most advanced painters benefit from a selection of warm and cool primaries for color mixing.

To make a fiery orange, try mixing New Gamboge (a warm yellow) with Pyrrol Scarlet (a warm red). Cool yellows (like Lemon Yellow) are slightly green and are useful for creating vibrant green shades.

These primary colors and their clean mixtures can be neutralized or brightened to suit your subject. Remember to add earthtones to complete your basic palette.

Secondary Colors Add Balance & Harmony to Your Work
Expand your palette with violets, greens and oranges to take your painting to the next level. These colors, situated between the primaries on your palette allow for complex and harmonious color relationships.

Some secondary colors are pre-mixed watercolors that are best bought by the tube because they are used so frequently (Sap Green is an example of a popular pre-mixed shade). Others are single pigment paints, like Quinacridone Burnt Orange, that add a serious pop to your palette but cannot be mixed using primary colors.

Create Drama with a Stunning Cast of Characters
Certain colors just have that "wow" factor. We've talked to many artists who find inspiration in the bold, unique and unusual pigments we offer.

Add dramatic effects with an authentic mineral pigment from our PrimaTek® line or create a jewel-like shimmer with a Luminescent watercolor. Customer favourites like Quinacridone Gold or Rhodonite are sure to add excitement to your process.

This is a beautiful watercolour. It's particularly useful as a red that is warm but without straying into orange. It handles well and is a joy to use.

Review

Beware! I bought a 15ml tube of this colour because I had been using it from a 5ml tube, bought three months earlier. The new 15ml tube (in a new pack), although its description remains the same, is a totally different colour - much darker and dirtier. It's a total waste of £12.80 - not suitable for my purpose at all.

Good colour for sand and light stone. Mixes well, but I prefer the usual earth tones of raw sienna which is a bit darker.

see remarks for Burnt Sienna.

Feefo
 

Review

Great colours, but some tubes were overfilled so all paint squirted out - not great especially as these are not cheap. And then having to clean tops of tubes to try and prevent tubes sticking solid was a bit of a bore.

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely soft pinky red, useful colour, quncs are great colours.

Feefo
 

Review

same remarks as for Burnt Sienna

Feefo
 

Review

I bought this originally for the dark centres of sunflowers, where it worked beautifully with the yellows. Lovely, rich vibrant colour. Have tried dropping this into Daniel Smith's granulating colours for some interesting effects.

Feefo
 

Review

I was a little disappointed with this, not with the quality, which is excellent as always with Daniel Smith, but it was not so vibrant as I had hoped. So far, I prefer it as a thin wash or glaze, but it does have a nice lustre in the more full-bodied application.

Feefo
 

Review

mine looks nothing like the one on the photo. it's shimmering cool grey with just a dab of blue

Olga
 

Review

This paint is fine and well known to me

Feefo
 

Review

I'm a big fan of the Daniel Smith Primateks range. This has a soft black mass tone with underlying shades of deep maroon. Granulates gently - and has a lot of personality on the page.

Feefo
 

Review

Good quality watercolour paint

Feefo
 

Review

I was so excited to buy what is my first purchase of DS paints! I tried them out the minute I received them. In fact, that very same week, I used them in a painting. But, while the colours were fine and so were the paints, they really werent as amazing as I'd expected, considering how other artists rave about them. They werent any better than cheaper paints I've used, and I really dont understand why they cost the earth.

Feefo
 

Review

Great colour, great pigment quality

wonderful colour, mesmerising the way it splits into greens and blues on the page. Would be great for ocean inspired work.

Review

This and the Lunar Blue is my first DS experience. I like the granulation properties of this colour, but its not as beautiful as I'd imagined, having heard several famous artists rave about them. So far I'm not unduly impressed by DS, especially since they cost so much more than other brands, but dont seem to stand out enough to justify the cost.

lovely colour, like sepia but with granulation

Use these paints all the time, good value for money

Feefo
 

Review

Love this brand and the colour

Feefo
 

Review

The Lapis Lazuli Genuine lacks the coveted bright blue color. With Daniel Smith, this precious and coveted pigment turns into a meaningless non-luminous grayish blue. Too bad.

Bernhard
 

Review

Good colour and consistency, comparable to Winsor & Newton.

Feefo
 

Review

Beautiful colours choice is difficult because I want them all.

Feefo
 

Review

This is fantastic, I love the way the colour splits and granulates, you have subtle changes in the colour as it dries with strong violets and nice deep grey, with hints of blue separating. Highly recommend this colour.

Feefo
 

Review

This is one of my favourite colours, rich and warm.

Feefo
 

Review

I love Daniel Smith watercolours, they go a long way and the colours are deep and rich. The burnt umber has a lovely warmth.

Feefo

Fantastic colour with excellent granulation.

Feefo
 

Review

Daniel Smith gold watercolour paint is absolutely stunning - you could be mistaken it's gold leaf.

Feefo
 

Review

It is the most amazing watercolour paint I have ever tried! Like a magical box which opens up in front of your eyes, changing colours and opening up hidden gems of viridian, pinks and magical deep purples. It is a pure magic, I can't believe my eyes everytime I paint with it. The granulation is above compliments, bravo, Daniel Smith! You make me want to paint more in more with this! Can't recommend it highly enough!

Viktorija
 

Review

The usual light blue, there is no granulation at all. This is the third color of the five that I ordered, which does not match the manufacturer's description.

Mariya Vladimirovna
 

Review

Color is really beautiful, but the granulation is not as strong as in the picture of the producer.

Mariya Vladimirovna
 

Review

Lie again. It's not granulating.

Mariya Vladimirovna
 

Review

Beautiful deep cold gray color with granulation.

Mariya Vladimirovna
 

Review

This color is my disappointment of the year. Boring gray-green without any granulation. This color is completely different from the manufacturer's photo. Maybe I got a tube from a defective lot, but such cases fundamentally undermine the trust in the brand.

Mariya Vladimirovna
 

Review

This colour makes you reminisce the now dead PO49. This is really a colour to talk about. How could you paint sunsets without it?

High pigment , so you use less paint

Top of the range, High pigment content

Daniel Smith watercolours - quality excellent, as expected.

A really interesting off beat colour I wouldn't be without.

Feefo
 

Review

This is one of the best watercolour colours. Moody and deep , it breaks up into an indigo and purple with water.

Feefo
 

Review

Would recommend this product.

Feefo
 

Review

AS above I need to use the product more before I can really say if it is good value and has the qualities I look for in watercolour paint.

Unique color!

Feefo
 

Review

This is a lovely paint and I love the colour and clarity you get with Daniel Smith paint.

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely paint but I have only given 3 stars because the colour in the tube I have bought is very different from the sample on the DS dots sample card. The sample was a definite, inky blue but the colour in the tube I've received can really only be described as a cool black. Not much point in having a sample card if they don't match up with what you buy. I would be interested to know if the Primatek colours have an inherent variation due to coming from natural mineral deposits. The good points though are that the granulation is amazing and mixing with other colours produces an interesting black, gritty overlay.

Claire

Beautiful colour. Bought because of recent change in pigment content.

Love the colour, great for painting Shetland seas and skies.

Feefo
 

Review

Very good quality. Love the colours.

Review

I decant this colour into half pans for students who wouldn't need the size of tube available. A colour not to be found in other ranges. Very useful for Botanical work ie twigs, dry grass, poppy heads etc

Feefo
 

Review

Granulates beautifully but is more toward brown than deep red.

Feefo
 

Review

excellent colour

Feefo
 

Review

not as strong lapis colour as expected.

Feefo
 

Review

Gorgeous, sensual colour.

Feefo
 

Review

Took a while to find the perfect pigment for poppies, this Transparent Pyrrol Orange is so just right it is yummy! Dries beautifully evenly in glowing washes.

Feefo
 

Review

I have only had time to experiment a little with this colour but I am pleasantly surprised at the granulation.

Feefo
 

Review

This is an exciting colour and I look forward to using it very much.

Feefo
 

Review

Good for creams

Lovely colour

I just love Daniels Smith paints the colours are just fantastic and lovely to work with I dont think I will ever use another brand again,,, I just keep going back to these

The watercolour products I buy from Jackson's are top quality and I find it hard to get what I need anywhere else and their prices are excellent as are the delivery times,,, the products have made a big difference to me and my work so thank you

Review

One of the best colours I have. Really brightens up a picture. Only tried it with foliage so far.

Feefo
 

Review

Not tried so far.

Feefo

Thin application creates delicate greens and on its own bright landscape effects.

Feefo

Primary colour.

Good mixer for greens.

Series 1 transparent yellow from DS, very pleasing results.

Feefo
 

Review

A great colour! So glad I bought this, it is becoming one of my regulars.

Feefo
 

Review

Really bright and vibrant. Totally different to other makes which are mixed and are muddy in comparison.

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely rich colour

Feefo
 

Review

Colour different to what I expected,a very much deeper tone,more plum than soft pink,must say I am disappointed with this one.

Feefo
 

Review

A nice color, creates wonderful darks with ultramarine blue.

Feefo
 

Review

I'd say it's a bit weaker than other ochre paints from various brands I've tried so far. Definitely more difficult to rewet than other DS paints on the pallette.

Feefo
 

Review

A nice reddish and deeper alternative to quinacridone gold, I like as an alternative to burnt sienna.

Feefo
 

Review

Haven't tried this colour yet, looking forward to it!

Feefo
 

Review

I started off with this colour after seeing someone else using it. What a great effect it has.

Feefo
 

Review

Just wonderful.

Feefo
 

Review

The colour is amazing. Daniels Smith is the best watercolour made.

Feefo
 

Review

Fantastic.

Feefo
 

Review

Beautiful clean colour .......... can't quite get there by mixing other colours. Almost a shame to alter it by mixing other colours into it. Great for moody skies of used "dry brush" on reflective water.

Feefo
 

Review

Love the consistency of Daniel Smith watercolour and the colour is fab

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely colour separated well.

Feefo
 

Review

glorious colour and texture

Feefo
 

Review

I have found this to be a beautiful transparent yellow

Feefo
 

Review

Vibrant, moderately sedimentary ultramarine, handles well as a wash or less dilute

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely creamy paint

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely, very finely milled so not as gritty as some brands of this pigment.

Feefo
 

Review

Delighted with it, it mixes great with a quinacridone pink to get a less granular equivalent to cobalt violet. Well almost, a little duller but the best I've ever done for an intense transparent red-violet. Makes lovely greys too.

Feefo
 

Review

I was very pleased to order this colour as it is often difficult to find.

Feefo
 

Review

I don't know what the fuss is about I found then to be no better that WN which are week in colour,and not as intense as they make out!-Some colours, remain softer then others in dry form. Expensive and full of American hype

Feefo
 

Review

A superb colour, and I will be buying more from the Daniel Smith range of watercolours.

Feefo
 

Review

I love this colour ! Usefull in many cases...

Feefo
 

Review

Had thought it was a cooler colour, Had read somewhere that DS was cooler than WN. Not so I think. Never mind, not the end of the world!

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely colour and texture to this paint.

Beautiful paint

Feefo
 

Review

Excellent brown/greys mixed with Ultramarine - creating just the effects that I wanted

Feefo
 

Review

I love this paint so much I keep trying to incorporate it in all of my paintings! The granulation creates wonderful pinks and purples - just right for heather clad hillsides which feature in many of my landscapes as I live in Scotland!

Feefo
 

Review

A lovely colour

Feefo
 

Review

It was very good, but not the vibrant orange I expected - more of a light cadmium red

Feefo
 

Review

Very exciting granulation & sedimentary effects, very different and am still exploring its possibilities. Had a large air bubble in new tube--partial fill.

Feefo
 

Review

I have actually already left feedback for this on Jacksons website-- Have been getting air bubbles with partial fills with Daniel Smith

Feefo
 

Review

This is a wonderful alizarin. Great for colour mixing.

Feefo
 

Review

This is an amazing pigment, really good for colour mixing. Like the results much better than with cerulean. A lot less chalky. Very vibrant and transparent.

Feefo
 

Review

Superb pigment

Feefo
 

Review

I think Daniel Smith w..colours are the best you can find on the market. That is the reson I order them from UK.

Feefo
 

Review

great bright colour

Feefo
 

Review

I've used Winsor & Newton, Schmincke Horadam and Daler Rowney watercolours for years, but this is my first taste of Daniel Smith. There's no doubt they are much more expensive, but frankly in a different league of quality. Finely ground, the colour explodes on the paper and there's a wealth of much more interesting colours to choose from. Quinacridone Burnt Scarlet is italian tiles, rusting iron farm buildings, dying bracken - you get the idea !

Feefo
 

Review

Love the Daniel Smith colours but they react rather differently to other watercolours so need a bit of practice.

Feefo
 

Review

Really nice, deep colour -compared to the regular quin gold, which although is also a lovely colour, does not give the warmth and depth that this "deep version" does.

Feefo
 

Review

Slightly greyer than W&N. Very useful

Feefo
 

Review

Gorgeous colour up to usual Daniel Smith standard.

Feefo
 

Review

good quality and very good value for money

Feefo
 

Review

I can't fault products or service, stopped using other suppliers because of the fast delivery and great customer service.

Feefo
 

Review

Having tried the try it dot colour card I expected it to be a brighter stronger colour. But it's just like W&N Burnt Siena.

Feefo
 

Review

Interesting colour.

Feefo
 

Review

Never use black in watercolour they say! BUT if you like texture in your rocks, foreground etc, a la John Piper, John Blockley, Michael Morgan etc, this is the colour to use. Magnificent and unpredictable granulation effects.

Feefo
 

Review

Great for reddish colour in rocks etc. Magnificent and unpredictable granulation effects.

Feefo
 

Review

Not quite as dramatic granulation as the DS blurb claims on its own, but granulation increases when mixed with W & N French Ultramarine.

Feefo
 

Review

I love those wc paints

Feefo
 

Review

Just a bit too runny when it comes out of the tube for me. I have grown up with W & N materials

Feefo
 

Review

Very nice colour and texture for landscapes especially autumn tones.. Used it straight away. Thankyou.

Feefo
 

Review

Wonderful colour gives flowers a great look.

Feefo
 

Review

Beautiful colour but does ooze quickly out of tube

Feefo
 

Review

Also excellent quality with lovely deep rich colour

Feefo
 

Review

Outstanding colour for dark backgrounds and shadows.

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely deep colour

Feefo
 

Review

Also lovely deep colour

Feefo
 

Review

All beautiful intense colours.

Feefo
 

Review

fantastic transparent colour with antwerp blue it makes a magnificent green excellent in wet into wet paintings and gives a rich warm yellow gold in backgrounds.

Feefo
 

Review

this is super and an excellent transparent replacement for burnt sienna. It makes a warm black with antwerp and a really dark black when mixed with ultramarine blue.

Feefo
 

Review

I think it's excellent - but I'd have to say I am not an experienced artist.

Feefo
 

Review

BRILLIANT paint,took to my art class and everyone wants a tube,quality is second to none will order more shades as very impressed

Feefo
 

Review

Not sure use reflects illustration. Perhaps w and n cd try producing an addl range! Also tubes soft and cause ooze of paint when opening!

Feefo
 

Review

Still trying to compare to w and n!!! Not always convinced price difference warranted!!!

Feefo
 

Review

Colour not so sophisticated in use/test as illustrated - disappointed

Feefo
 

Review

As b4: tube too soft, price versus w and n hard to justify if not v special in use, not yet succeeded in getting effect illustrated - perhaps W and N could produce a small special range of gran, separating u usual colours

Feefo
 

Review

Colour darker than expected but does water down to a paler shade.

Feefo
 

Review

A nice burnt umber perfect for mixing with ultramarine for darker shadows.

Feefo
 

Review

Beautiful

Feefo
 

Review

Lovely bright, strong colour which doesn't dry on the palette for much longer than cheaper watercolours.

Feefo
 

Review

Paint does not dry out on the palette as quickly as cheaper watercolours so much easier to use over a few hours painting. Lovely strong colour so you don't need a lot.

Feefo
 

Review

Useful strong colour which doesn't dry on the palette for a long time compared to cheaper watercolours.

Feefo

this and W&N lemon are my only yellows, and cover the field!!

Perfect for what I wanted it for.

Just gave me what I was looking for. Very pleased with the results. I will be back ordering soon.

Review

My favourite cour in the Daniel Smaithrange. I love the way the paint granulates.

Feefo
 

Review

pigment very weak, nowhere near as good as Old Holland

Feefo
 

Review

It has a bit of a gooey texture but nice when mixed with cobalt blue and/or raw sienna. Those 3 also make a nice grey.

Feefo
 

Review

Not as bright a colour as an acrylic version but still useful.

Feefo
 

Review

This is an excellent colour with a variety of uses.

Feefo
 

Review

As a fantasy artist I wanted a colour for use in undersea scenes but I have found this colour extremely useful for my paintings of dragon flesh, fantasy woodlands and Elves of shadows. and also leaves and foliage of wildflowers and garden plants. It will stay as a permanent member of my palette collection.

Feefo
 

Review

Deeper colour than I expected

Feefo
 

Review

I am a fantasy artist painting my book illustrations and images for other products. At first I was disappointed in the colour not reflecting that shown online, but the more I use it, the more I realise how fascinating this colour is and how versatile its uses. I now intend to try more colours.

Feefo
 

Review

Really vibrant colour

Feefo
 

Review

Always beautiful colours good consistency

Feefo
 

Review

Perfect for granular washes on rocks, scrub etc.

Feefo
 

Review

As the 'Info' says this is a lovely clear strong orange, but much more useful than the heavy opaque Cadmium Orange. A great landscape colour for sunsets as it's transparent. It mixes well to produce interesting greens and browns.

Fiona M H
 

Review

Don't be misled by the colour which appears on the screen or on the Jackson's colour chart (quite a few of the DS colours are not accurately shown !). This is not the red/brown shade you see, but a lovely golden raw sienna colour. Like all DS colours it rewets very well (much better than W&N Raw Sienna or W&N Yellow Ochre) and is semi-transparent, giving a glowing colour on the paper but also having enough 'presence' to achieve interesting effects.

Fiona M H
 

Review

I'm addicted to this lovely shadow colour, since a fiend introduced me to it. I've met other addicts since. Just wished the Daniel smith paints were a bit cheaper,but they are imported. It's a lovely original range

Feefo
 

Review

Still a lovely paint (Daniel Smith never disappoints) however the tube I got wasn't single pigment PR88 as advertised but instead a mix of PR202 and PB29. Kinda disappointing when you buy this especially because it's PR88.

Used it for red cat furs. Extremely watercolors effect and bright color. You never forgot this lovely feeling using this tube! My lovely cover for my watercolor painting course \"Creating WOW Effects In Watercolor\" with a Quinacridone Deep Gold kitten is so attractive - http://lazywonderbrush.blogspot.ca/2015/12/announcing-new-course-creating-wow.html

This is pure fresh in a tube. My hand take it each time I want to paint a sky but not to go away viewers attention from main subject. My spring daffodils are so soft and fresh here - http://bit.ly/2eBNJNQ

Lovely color. I tend to add it just to experience it again while painting. Beautiful watermarks, it makes me feel warm and cozy. Seems like watercolor Naples Yellow by Daniel Smith invented to paint yellow Labrador dog. Look at my Labrador dog commission painted with this tube - http://bit.ly/2es3R5t

Gorgeous color, no wonder it's always out of stock!

I think I was a bit hasty in my judgement when I thought this yellow didn't mix good greens. I just painted a plant that has lots of leaves and the green (azo yellow + ultramarine) is very natural looking yet bright enough.

Review

The most exciting color I've ever seen. It has a mind of its own with turning magically blue here and green there. I am in love with it.

Review

Looks nothing like the swatch on the site; I cannot get it to be that dark no matter what, it does not granulate and seems to have glitter in it. I don't like it.

gorgeous earthy sea green excellent quality as I would expect from Daniel Smith

Feefo
 

Review

A very good yellow if you want to paint yellow. Strong, bright, clean. But not as good for an all in one yellow to use as yellow + mixing greens and earths. The greens are quite strong and opaque (I used PB 60 & PB 29) and look like they've been mixed using lemon yellow, because azo yellow has very little warmth. Nothing wrong with strong&opaque if you like that but I prefer more transparent. Surprisingly, the earths are quite weak. They do not have any golden glow, and they look rather cool and bland. So the need for a golden yellow arises. I used Schmincke Pure yellow before and have to say I would have been wise to stick with it, it is beautiful on its own, and mixes glowing earths and transparent natural looking greens. Pair it with DS Lemon yellow and you don't need other yellows.

The color is beautiful but very far from swatch... It looks like Malachite Genuine, but even more stronger.

Review

This I saw on another's DVD too and on that it appeared warmer with a deep crimson/grey colour. Having tried it though it was slightly more grey than crimson but the granular quality of the paint didn't disappoint.

Feefo
 

Review

I saw this product on another artist's DVD and wanted to try it. It starts off like a chrome green but then partly transforms into an other worldly electric blue if more water is added. Amazing!

Feefo
 

Review

Love this colour: as a wash with a beautiful granulation, and also as a warmer addition to cold areas - this pigment will slightly remove the colder pigment (works wet-to-wet only of course). Yes, the pigment is light, but this makes the color so special.

I had bought DS. range of granulating paints, and they certainly do that. Compared to W&N paints they are a bit thine, more liquid than pigment, but they(DS) do do the granulating better. This colour also has a very nice separation of the blue and red pigments.

Review

Great watercolor (as all Daniel Smith ones) but as for me in real life it looks little bit more brighter that I waited from it, but still not like artificial one so I'm satisfied with it.

Liliya Rodnikova
 

Review

I use this color almost in all of my works! It works amazing in mixing with other colors and gives them depth and texture.

This awesome color reminds me about insect's shells. It's decorative and natural at the same time. If you are thinking about trying it I recommend you to do this!

Liliya Rodnikova

Duochromes are really interesting colors to play with! And it's shining is so delicate and beautiful!

Review

An intense, vibrant orange which glows under more transparent glazes. Use sparingly, it is concentrated liquid fire, wonderful.

Henry Jones
 

Review

After lusting after this colour I was really, really disappointed with it. In fact hardly any colour more a granular watery grey blue than the bright blue I expected. Not worth paying the extra almost double price. Most disappointing experience. Would be interesting to try the test card first.

marjorie knight
 

Review

Beautiful and vivid, I love it. A great replacement for plain old burnt sienna.

Arti Chauhan
 

Review

The Daniel Smith swatches show it as a nice paint with some juicy midtones. In fact it's a bit muted violet with gentle glitter when dried. It feels velvety. If you know what amethyst crystals look like, this shouldn't be surprising. What impressed me is the tonal range I'm able to achieve with it. And the paint controls really nicely.

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

a wonderful colour to use, especially for Autumn landscapes. And it does sparkle!

Mary Simpson
 

Review

Amazing vivid color! It reminds me about flower's pollen. As for me it's the best yellow I've ever seen.

Liliya Rodnikova
 

Review

Very convincing gold watercolor. Nice consistency, can be re-wetted easily when it dries, I'm really happy about it!

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

The effect it creates is amazing and very unpredictable, especially when working wet in wet.

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

I purchased this one together with Iridescent Goldstone and they both seem amazing (nice consistency, easily re-wettable). The iridescent effect of Electric Blue is better visible on dark surfaces though.

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

Have to say the most exciting pigment to discover in 22yrs of painting. Great mixer, spectacular granulation effects, seems to \"\"electrify\"\"/intensify some colours when they come into contact with it. Haven't found anything it can't do yet, just wish I had it when I first started painting -- play with it and be amazed.

Christopher Fenner
 

Review

Very strong pigment, lovely bright colour, can be rewetted very easily. Also great choice if you're low on your budget, hansa yellow is nice for mixing both warm and cold colors. I'm starting to believe the tube is going to last forever...

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

Wonderful and intense blue, the tube is just loaded with the blue pigment! I'm not used to these tube watercolors yet (I'm working mostly with pans) so I was quite surprised how fast it settles down. The color chart says medium staining but the effect seems quite strong to me. This could work for some nice texture effects. :)

Dagmar Paseková
 

Review

This is a gorgeous mix for background shadow passages, deepening purples in florals and special effects. The granulation is lovely - the viridian and rose pigments peek out in a wash.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

This has got to be the most glorious useful green watercolour available. It covers the range from very light but realistic mossy greens through sap greens through deep olive greens all in one tube. The granulation, with specks of browns, is gorgeous. One of the top paints I have ever used.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

This is the most beautiful warm yellow I have used. Lovely in washes and mass tone.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

Like many of the Primatek colours, you have to get used to how they work. This is a gorgeous granulating red-earth that can be used in place of Indian red. In a wash is can be glowing with dusty rose to crimson warmth but in mass-tone it is very dark. A number of colours in one. I love it.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

I love this colour as a single primary red in a very limited palette. It does a great job as a cool red in a split primary palette too, and is lovely to paint with. Very smooth and rewets well in the palette. Makes gorgeous oranges with a yellow and purples with ultramarine.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

This is my favourite yellow earth. The granulation is wonderful for beach scenes (with Buff Titanium), rocks and landscapes and I use it in place of yellow ochre or raw sienna for most of my work. Make sure you shake the tube sell though as it can separate in the tube.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

I use this colour all the time. It is a fabulous granulating semi-opaque that is perfect for depicting rocks, beach scenes, seashells and so much more. I love it with Goethite - another granulating staple in my palette.

Jane Blundell
 

Review

This colour is one of my favourites of any manufacture. It's subtle, and I love the granulation, particularly mixing for darks

Gail Seery
 

Review

the colour shown he is not correct, it is actually grey with no hint of green, but it does granulate very well when mixed with other colours

david bly
 

Review

A joyous paint that heavily flocculates all over the place. Rich, velvety red-brown... Has some real ooomph! while still maintaining transparency.

John Guichard
 

Review

I see someone else has beaten me to it! Probably a bad batch of lapis overblown with calcite and pyrite. Henceforth this paint is massively overpriced, dull, grey & weak (you'll ruin your brushes trying to get any strength of colour)... Nigh on useless! Prima-tek range seems to be an overpriced flop.

John Guichard
 

Review

I must say that this colour leans much more to the green side than the sample suggests. Mine also came with a large air bubble (just my luck!). However it is a lovely colour. Easy to lift off and mixes fairly well. But

John Guichard
 

Review

A wonderful, rich, deep green. Great granulation/flocculation effects. A must have! Maybe slightly more yellow than the picture shows. But achieves an intense dark upon layering.

John Guichard
 

Review

I have several tubes of Daniel Smith watercolours and absolutely love them, especially the Quinacridones which are beautiful, rich colours. Quinacridone Fuchsia is a single pigment cool red, a little bluer than quin. rose in tints but not as blue as quin. magenta. At full strength it's a strong, deep reddish pink. Washes are lovely and smooth, making it perfect for floral paintings. I can also recommend the quin. gold, it's still made with the rare PO49 pigment and is the most beautiful earth colour. It's great to find a UK supplier of this wonderful range.

I am so happy to be able to source Daniel Smith watercolors through Jackson's. They are lovely to work with and give a lovely depth of colours. The transparent colours are really good and allow the paper brightness come through and give the painting a lovely depth and g quality of colour.
