Watercolor set Giotto Farby akwarele mini 36 — 36 half-pan watercolor paints

Giotto Farby akwarele mini 36 is a compact watercolor set with 36 half-pan paints arranged in a portable plastic case. The set provides a wide range of colours in a small format designed for sketching, school tasks and travel use. Half-pans offer convenient colour mixing and controlled water uptake, while the lightweight case fits easily into backpacks and art kits for on-the-go painting.

Advantages

The Giotto mini 36 set combines colour variety and compactness, enabling users to work with an extended palette without carrying full-size tubes. Half-pan pans dry quickly and are easy to re-wet, which makes them practical for both quick studies and extended sessions. The case protects the pans during transport and includes mixing areas for palette work. The formulation is suitable for classroom use and hobby painting, providing consistent pigment release and predictable blending behaviour.

How to use

Activate each half-pan with a few drops of clean water and a brush; allow the pigment to rehydrate and lift into the brush before applying to paper. Use the integrated wells for mixing custom shades and controlling water-to-pigment ratio. For best results, work on watercolor paper with appropriate weight. Rinse the brush between colours to avoid unintended mixing, and close the case after use to keep the pans clean and protected.

Usage recommendations

Store the set in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. When preparing for travel, secure the case in a rigid compartment to prevent crushing. Replace water frequently when painting to maintain clean colour and prevent contamination.
