This set of extra-fine transparent watercolor has the brush handling qualities inherent in Japanese watercolor techniques. Because the watercolor contains no ox gall, animal by products or other dispersing agents, it moves slowly, allowing for greater color density and brush control. It has a creamy texture that remains smooth when dry - the paint will not crack, crumble, chip or mold in the palette. This 24-color set includes crimson lake, rose madder, vermilion hue, jaune brilliant, permanent yellow lemon, permanent yellow deep, yellow ochre, yellow gray, cobalt green, permanent green #1, permanent green #2, terre verte, viridian hue, compose blue, cerulean blue, cobalt blue, ultramarine deep, Prussian blue, mineral violet, light red, burnt sienna, burnt umber, ivory black and Chinese white in 5ml tubes.
