Michael Harding have been making oil paints for over 40 years and built an excellent reputation worldwide. About 18 months ago, they started making watercolours, so the question is, are they as good at watercolour as they are at oil? There are over 130 colours and over 90 of those are single pigment.

If you want to treat yourself, here is a link to Jacksons they ship

I was fortunate enough to be sent a basic palette of tubes for a project I'm working on with Painters Online, so it was a great opportunity to see what they are like. I am testing:
Lemon yellow
Quinacridone gold
Cadmium red
Alizarin crimson
French ultramarine
Prussian blue
Dioxazine violet
Sap green
Burnt Sienna

This is what I would suggest as a great beginner's palette.

If you want to join me on the webinars I mention, please check out the Painters Online website: https://www.paintersonline.co.uk/web...

I found they are:
Made by people who know what they are doing
Highly pigmented
Great rewetting
Easily available information on pigment and properties

Are they right for you? Watch the film to find out more.
