How to use

Open the case and remove the brush from its compartment. Moisten the brush with clean water and gently activate the chosen paint pan by swiping the brush across the surface until pigment lifts. Apply the paint to paper using light washes for translucent effects or add additional layers after drying to increase intensity. Rinse the brush between colors and return it to the case when finished. Use suitable watercolor paper for best results and allow each layer to dry before applying the next to avoid unwanted bleeding.

Usage recommendations

For predictable color mixing and consistent washes, test colors on a scrap of watercolor paper before working on final pieces. Store the set in a dry place and ensure the brush is clean and dry before closing the case to prevent mold or pigment transfer. When traveling, pack the kit upright and avoid crushing to protect the pans and brush.
