Van Gogh is the brand for the serious artist who has an eye for quality.

Van Gogh watercolors are brilliant, intense, and very transparent. Every color in the line features the highest degree of lightfastness, ensuring that your work displays the same color decades later as it did on the day you painted it. Due to the purity of the colors, Van Gogh Watercolors are extremely easy to mix and wash to create the subtlest of differences in shade.

Van Gogh Watercolors are made in the Netherlands. Each tube contains 10 ml (.34 oz).

12-Pan Set — This set contains the following materials:

12 watercolor half pans, including Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, Payne's Gray, Viridian, Sap Green, Ultramarine Deep, Cerulean Blue, Permanent Red Light, Madder Lake Deep, Chinese White, Permanent Lemon Yellow, and Azo Yellow Medium
Pointed round pocket brush

I have been using these for 15 years

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

I am a professional artist, and have been using these great watercolors for most of my career. They go a long way, have beautiful intensity and quality pigment colors, and the range of colours is fantastic. I really can find no fault with these paints, and the price is perfect, too - a good investment is to get a set!

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

These watercolors are awesome for the price. Almost as good as the artist quality. Very highly pigmented and responsive. Only thing is some crack on the palette, yet they're easy to reactivate. Love them

These are really nice. Good color pigment. Nice flow; not too runny; not too thick. They go well with my H2oils and now my Cobra watersoluble oil paints.

Nice paint!

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

I am very pleased with the quality of these student grade watercolors. They compare favorably with much more expensive lines. Earlier this winter I bought a set of much more expensive paints but needed a wider color selection than I could afford at the time so I bought 20+ of these. The colors are delightful.. intense & rich, blend well, hold their color after they are dry. Shipping was quick and packing was excellent. Thanks Blick's.

Exactly what we needed!

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

We ordered this for our daughters Artist report in which we created a likeness of an original. The whole family (puppy included) had a blast painting, mixing the colors and the vibrancy of the landscape came to life. Perfect size for this effort and still plenty left over for snow/rain day projects.

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

I just started watercolor and bought Daler Rowney set of paint. I kept seeing comments about Paynes grey and Phthalo blue so I ordered these and more in student grade Van Gogh. Wow. These paints really pop out and are brilliant.

[...] Funny!I have used the paints to make reference swatches, beautiful color, good consistency. I am sure to have a great deal of fun with them as I very much enjoy the 15 pan set of VG WC I have already.

Very good student grade colors

By Laura la Française

from Austin, TX

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Van Gogh Watercolors:

I use these student-grade watercolors for very high frequency colors in my works (Payne's Gray, Prussian Blue, Sap Green) and they are of a very good quality for student grade watercolors. I know a professional watercolorist who exclusively uses these, as they are not expensive and suit his purposes well.
