When selecting watercolour paint, it’s important to consider the specific requirements of your project. For detailed work and fine illustration, high-pigment watercolour paint ensures precision and clarity, while lightfast formulas protect your work from fading. Pan watercolours are compact and convenient for sketching, while liquid watercolour paint allows for bold and experimental techniques. For large formats or textured pieces, granulating or tube watercolour paint offers flexibility and depth.
