Winsor & Newton watercolor review.


I was at the art supply store today, I was once again among infinite amount of paints and pigments, all the wonders of modern tech in paper which is great I grab an acrylic sketchpad for future use but that was not why I was there today.

I was after some watercolors and watercolors I got. One of the most prestigious brand to water color pigments is the "Winston & Newton" collections. And here you can see the loot. A "Winston & Newton" set of waterpaints an Acrylic sketchpad and an A4 pack of watercolor paper. It was the time to head home for the review when on my way out I remember I need of a new pen, so I had to test them out a bit , Promoting steemit everywhere, right guys! Check out the below video...

Ipad pro you... I want you...

Right before I got to the cashier to pay the total of 38.84 euros for the lot, I stumbled upon an Ipad pro after some fast swipes I saw the adobe sketch app installed so I said to my self, there is always time to for a doodle... Yet another that is, for the day. And more yet to come. As you will read and see below. On the left you can check out the doodle I made as a finger painting on it, I just need one of those so much...
Unpacking this ludicrous blue box I felt like I was a kid. A metallic rectangular black box is the container of the colors cool looking in a compact size is all I was asking for. That and also the perfect color quality this brand is so famous of. I can't wait more lets see what else is included in their 38 euro set of colors. In the phot below you can see the complete list of pigments of this brand. Check them out.


Not all of the above pigments are included in this set, rather just 24 of them. But you can check in this list what kind of colors you can additionally order from this series


Testing Gradients and more.

As the box unfolds you can see the sealed little containers of the pigments arranged towards their hue. It is wise to have them arrange that way throughout their life line for easier mixes. Or you can rearrange them to your convenience since you can pop them out and in according your tastes. Let us harry up and seal them off, it is time to test them. For that I am using aquarella paper A4 size which I just bought along.

Below I got some close ups with my Nikon d3000 for your viewing and color addiction pleasure:



You can see on the left the tests I did. I used a No6 soft brush and I washed the pigments with water gradually to create the gradients you see. The results are just amazing. The colors are as vibrant they need to, of course the white you cant see it there so I made some random paintings on the paper in a small scale for you to check out. Below are the tests I did as a way to review them they are very fluid and fully vivid. I just love them I hope you will get your hands on them and try them out of your own.
