Description
Gansai WaterColour Sets feature a range of carefully selected traditional Japanese watercolours.
 Enjoy eighteen shades of Gansai in your art practice, the Japanese alter-ego to European watercolours – also similar to gouaches. These high quality paints, made in Japan, can be used directly out of the box with a wet paintbrush – either thinly in translucent washes, or by layering for a bolder effect. These can also be used on darker paper bases.Â
This selection of eighteencolours is presented in a traditional apple green Japanese fabric-bound presentation box. Traditional Japanese watercolours are a high quality, water-soluble paint with rich pigments and beautiful colours in wide rectangular pans. Each pan is filled with a dry solid paint that reactivates quickly with water.
