A Mini-Watercolor SetsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #art9 years ago

A neighbor gave me this itsy-bitsy watercolor set the other day.


I took a picture of it in my hand to give the scale. It is extremely small for an art set and I'd probably never use it to paint with. It's more of a fun novelty item than for practical use but it is made by Winsor and Newton, one of the world's leading manufacturers of artists' paints. And yes that's a brush in the center and the dry cakes of pigment are actually usable, just like the Prang watercolor sets we all used as kids.

There are the three primary colors: red, yellow, and blue, along with black, green, and brown.

It is a folding tin container that closes so it can be carried in a pocket. Open, there are two mixing areas to be used as a palette. Pretty nifty and cute, and somewhat amusing, so I thought I'd share it on Steemit for fun.

It's really a tiny set ^_^

That's really genuinely really tiny. Novelty item... but Winsor and Newton? Maybe some kind of advertising/promotional giveaway?
