🌿 FAVORITE WATERCOLORS
Updated August 2023: If I were starting over today, I would begin with a 24 or 48 half pan set of Art Whale and then replace each color I use most with Schmincke Horadam over time.

Art Whale Watercolors
--- 24 half pans: https://amzn.to/3rZRhVd
--- 48 half pans: https://amzn.to/3KwQf9I
(Student Grade // company is based in Miami, Florida; paints are made in China; pigment information is provided; pans are standard sized and can be moved around; tins are fantastic and will serve you well for a long time; these are highly pigmented, extremely easy to re-wet, and over 70% of the colors should be lightfast based on pigment numbers; the only caveat is that burnt sienna and umber are mislabled, so you'll want to switch the names when you make a swatch chart)

Schmincke Horadam Watercolors
--- half pans at Blick: http://shrsl.com/4370b
--- tubes at Blick: http://shrsl.com/4370e
--- tubes, full pans, and half pans at Jackson's: https://tidd.ly/3XKR0U6
(Artist quality // top-of-the line watercolors made by a highly reputable, long-standing, family-owned company in Germany; my favorite brand overall; I recommend purchasing individual colors since the ready-made sets don't usually have an ideal selection)
