The more I paint, the more I realize I have go-to colors I reach for again and again. Instead of having tons of paints in a palette that don't ever get touched, I decided to streamline my colors and just add the ones I regularly use. There are so many different options for watercolor paints at all different price points and I always recommend just starting with either what you already have on hand or picking up the best quality set you can find in your price range. I have a few of my favorite beginner sets picked out for you on the Watercolor Supplies page. I painted with an inexpensive set of cake watercolors for years before switching to tubes. Tubes of paint are more expensive, but also more saturated, better quality paints that offer truer colors, better translucency
