The uniquely formulated Pastel Shades watercolor paints are soft and light. They can be layered for a brighter finish, without dissolving previously dried layers. Alternatively, these contemporary, light shades can be applied delicately for a soft, light wash, or used with Derwent Inktense and Metallic paint sets to create dramatic effects. This compact, self-contained set contains 12 pastel paint pans, a mini waterbrush, five mixing palettes and a sponge to clean the waterbrush. The set includes colors lemon, peach, coral pink, pink flamingo, orchid pink, lavender, cornflower blue, turquoise, mint, artichoke, storm gray and silver blue.
