Learn to watercolor by painting along with San Francisco landscapes. I'll paint favorites like Arizmendi Bakery and City Lights Bookstore. Along the way you'll learn some important watercolor techniques such as:

1. Wet-in-wet
2. Wet-on-dry
3. Basic wash
4. Variegated wash
5. Priming
6. Lifting
7. Color mixing

This kit contains:

1. Lemon Yellow Hue
2. Winsor Red
3. Permanent Rose
4. Ultramarine
5. Phthalo Blue
6. Sap Green
7. Burnt Sienna

These colors form a modified secondary palette. You should be able to mix almost any color with this set.

This kit contains 12 sheets of watercolor paper that are:

• cold-press
• 140lb
• 4x6"

This kit comes with a 4ml Sakura Koi waterbrush. If you haven't used a waterbrush before, they're an ingenious design where the water sits in the brush, and you don't require a cup of water to paint. The Sakura waterbrush is especially popular because it holds a lot of paint and doesn't shed bristles.

It also comes apart into two segments, so you can put it in the tin, take a few sheets of paper, and have an easy plein air kit.
