Yasutomo Fusion Synthetic Brush - Round, Short Handle, Size 3

Rosa Gallery Metal Tin Watercolor Box I started with Rosa Gallery and they are great paints! Professional quality at everyday prices. I also like Turner watercolor paints. Turner 18 color set. Edit to add: for paper you can get a Royal Talens sketchbook for pretty cheap and the paper is fun to practice on and there are lots of pages! Check out Yatsutomo fusion brushes for the absolute best value for money when it comes to watercolor brushes. Yatsutomo fusion size 3 (my fav) I guess my point is - those kits are super cute but the paint pans are so tiny that it’s easy to become frustrated. I think a simple metal paint box with a nice little journal is an easy option that won’t disappoint.
