Watercolor Travel Kit or Beginners Kit

Watercolor Travel Kit or Beginners Kit

I put together a watercolor travel kit in collaboration with Daniel Smith Art Supplies.  It is called the Daniel Smith Extra Fine Jacqueline Newbold Watercolor Travel Kit.  It would also serve as a great kit for beginning watercolor artists.  It is also a great checklist for those of you who have your own supplies and want to see what is needed for painting-on-the-go!
Included in the kit are 12 tubes of Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolors.  I picked each one out because they match a color on the color wheel.

You will also get a very nice spiral bound Arches Watercolor Travel Journal with 140 lb watercolor paper in it and my favorite travel palette!  You will get 2 brushes, a kneaded eraser and a zippered case to carry your brushes and extra things.  All you will need to complete this travel kit would be a pencil and water.  If you bought everything separately, it would cost you $63 more.  
This kit is the what I used while doing the demonstrations on my DVD:  Art Journals: On-the-Go!
Here is the list of the colors that are included in the kit:

 Lemon Yellow

Phthalo Green Yellow Shade
Phthalo Yellow Green
Phthalo Turquoise
Cerulean Blue
French Ultramarine
Carbazole Violet
Quinacridone Violet
Permanent Red
Permanent Orange
Quinacridone Burnt Orange
New Gamboge
MY OTHER FAVORITE PAINTS AND ART SUPPLIES (NOT INCLUDED IN THE KIT):
Rich Green Gold
Cobalt Blue Teal
Cobalt Blue
Phthalo Blue, Red Shade
Permanent Rose
Quinacridone Gold
Glaze Pen, Black
Various Color Markers
Paper-mate Flair pen
Spray Bottle

Back in Stock!

Back in Stock!

I just got a message from Daniel Smith Art Supplies that my Watercolor Kit will be back in stock this week.  Apparently the Arches Watercolor Journal (that I love!) has been out of stock all over the country for awhile.  This kit is great for travelers and beginner painters.  Here is a video where I show what you get in the kit:

Watercolor Lesson – Creating Colorful Darks, Part 3

Watercolor Lesson – Creating Colorful Darks, Part 3

At this point, I have started to add the leaves of the flowers and the shadows that the flowers have cast onto the stone wall.  I have also added a shadow on the right side of the window facing.  Notice too that I have lifted the window inside the dark area. – Almost done!
