Excellent for classroom young kids

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

I use them at my kids art studio for a long time already, really good quality with bright colors. I love the idea already mixed, give me time to run around 6-8 young kids at age 4-7, 2 to 3 classes per day without making any mess;It's very easy for the young artists too, they paint easily by just adding little water.

Love the vibrant colors!

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

I love the intensity of these colors and they react very well to salt! I plan to purchase more colors to add to the set I received. My only complaint is that 5 bottles leaked in transit and were dripping all over the other bottles and the box. Luckily I had paint clothes on when I opened the box!

Great product but leakage in shipping

By Nancy Beal

from Peoria, AZ

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

I have not had a chance to use this product yet and it looks great - just had one issue with the shipping - 2 of the bottles leaked through and made a pretty good mess. The lids were not fastened on tightly and so they seemed to leak from this area. Otherwise, very happy with the product - you may just want to check these in the future!
Thanks!

Wonderful Staining Paints!

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

I have started using these paints for poured watercolors. I find they are easy for mixing. I've only used the red and yellow so far but find that they are wonderful vibrant staining colors which is just want I need for poured watercolors.

Awesome Paint - Bad container

By Andi

from Dallas, TX

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

I'm using these with my elementary art students and we all LOVE them. They REALLY react (like fireworks) to salt sprinkled onto a wash - much better than pan watercolors. I use the turquoise for the kids to do skies with markers and save the light blue markers for smaller tasks.
My only complaint is that the flip top caps leak out the sides, making a mess and wasting paint. The solution is easy -I just unscrew the whole thing and pour. But it is kind of misleading to put on the faulty fliptop. Not that big of a deal though.

Great size bottles for kids art classes. This watercolour paint performs very well. It sinks into the paper nicely and allows for very nice effects when watered down.
Incredibly satisfied!

red glitter

By barbydoc

from los angeles

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

this color has a sticky touch after drying,either thinned out or full strength
the color is great
I usually pour onto watercolor paper

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Merchant response: At Blick we always attempt to provide the best information possible to our customers. In this case, we would note that the BlickLiquid Watercolors are formulated for thinner, brush application. Pouring these would result in a thicker film, which could remain tacky after drying due to the different formulation required in the glitter colors. If you ever have specific questions regarding our products or the compatibility of a product with other materials, please contact our Product Information department at info@dickblick.com or by calling (800) 933-2542. Our product specialists will be happy to help you with questions about art materials, product applications, and techniques.

Intense water colors

By Gram the Quilter

from Pleasanton CA

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

We are using the liquid watercolors to create squares for a memory quilt. The colors are intense and enhance the brightness of the quilt. I've used them to create the pictures on watercolor paper and then, using the copier, transfer the picture onto cloth. Without the intensity of the colors the copied pictures would lose a lot of the color. I have been very happy with the results after using your liquid watercolors for the original pictures.

Great!

By Rachael Tweets

from Hillsboro, OR

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Liquid Watercolors:

These are awesome, the color's are bright and well pigmented. These would be great for anyone, I however bought them for my 4 year old daughter, who tends to over mix her colors and paints to thick with traditional w/c paint or other styles ; which results in muddy paintings. These she can layer color and it still looks beautiful. I would recommend these for children, beginners, and advanced artists. The clean up is also easy, and I'm not throwing paint away every time we use it. That's a real plus!
