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.
