The Pentel Large Water Brush is still my FAVORITE! However, the palette that I featured in the original post had been replaced with the ones I made myself. This video tells you the advantages and disadvantages of the each.

If you want to start with the original palette, it's the Koi Pocket Field Sketch Box with 24 colors. You can purchase it on Amazon for less than $25 (as of 4/2024). It was what I started with before I used professional grade which are packed with pigment.

MY WORKSHOP IS JULY 2127 so follow the link and scroll down until you see Session II, and you will see the class description.
Space is limited. If you do register, I will be in touch through emails for a chance to answer any specific questions. HOPE to see you there!
