Our “All you need to paint..” watercolour painting sets do contain all that’s needed to paint the two pencil drawn puffins on Saunders Waterford 425gsm watercolour paper. By using Cadmium Lemon Yellow, Ultramarine Blue and Transparent Iron Oxide Red Professional Watercolour and 2 of our finest Chinese brushes, a traditional sable painting brush and detailing brush, both designs can be expertly painted following our individual 12-step printed painting instructions. There are also video painting demonstrations for each design available on our YouTube channel, which can be reached via dedicated QR codes.
