Lovely texture and color
This is such a fun color. I have really been enjoying my experiments with it! Daniel Smith makes some of the highest quality and most unique shades of watercolor on the market. With each one being fairly inexpensive, it is so hard not to go nuts and buy them all!

Beautiful pigment
I love this color. It's like a dusky velvety purplish grey. I use it a lot for outer space behind a moon. It is good quality and easy to blend.

Versatile! Gorgeous Texture! The Palette Staple I Didn't Know I Needed!
Exciting, Versatile, Silky Smooth... A palette staple, and I had no idea just how much it was needed. This subtle, seemingly dull shade actually works seamlessly to makes bright pigments more delicate. Add more than a bit, and you'll get a creamy, more gouache-like consistency. It provides endless color and texture possibilities. Florals and Botanicals, portraits, landscapes, architecture... It's endless! The combination of Buff Titanium with Quinacridone Rose is just stunning. Combine with strong, transparent yellows and/or neutrals... Gorgeous mixed - and convenience - greens... Thanks to it's versatility, I'd recommend (if you're able) investing a bit more. The 5ml tube is much too small! But, it goes without saying that whether hobbyist or pro, the contents of any 5ml tube is too pricey if you paint large scale, and/or a regular basis. This small tube won't last long. It's absolute perfection for my florals! I'm looking forward to trying with the super granulating effects of subtle Potter's Pink!

Very popular color, a very fine paint!
I must like this color alot, because I keep buying duplicates accidentally. I have 3 of them, 15 ml each! It's a beautiful color, great for so many flowers, canoes and kayaks, surfboards, barns, no end of subjects!

Neutral Tint: Versatile Gray That Elevates Any Palette
I picked up this color to expand my Daniel Smith watercolor collection, and I’m so glad I did. Neutral Tint has always been one of my favorite grays because of how effortlessly it can shade, darken, and de-saturate other colors. I already own a neutral tint from another reputable brand, but I was curious to try Daniel Smith’s version due to its semi-transparent quality. After comparing them (see photos), the differences are clear: Daniel Smith’s Neutral Tint is noticeably lighter in value and non-staining, which gives it a softer, more adaptable feel on the page. It’s easy to lift, easy to layer, and blends beautifully without overwhelming other pigments. A great addition to any palette if you love versatile, easy-to-use grays.

High quality watercolors!
The lightfast ratings are excellent or near excellent for most of these colors. Higher quality pigments and color saturation than lesser student grade brands. Very pleased with the performance of these watercolor paints. Shipping was very fast. Price is reasonable for this brand

High quality product.
OMG. Love this paint. Price is high but you definitely get what you pay for. Love the color and as most artists will agree... this brand of watercolor paint flows and blends so smoothly. The transparency turns out exactly how you want it to be and the thickness or texture is what you expect in high quality paints. I was excited to try Daniel Smith. I bought one tube to give it a try because as a struggling artist, it was all I could afford. I was extremely satisfied with the result. Tube is durable. The color or glow of the paint never disappoints.
