Etchrlab and Stephanie’s Law Mini Porcelain Palette Review
As I wrote in my previous blog post I modified my tiny and trusted watercolour box in order to hold 30 colours. The idea of holding 30 colours in tiny wells came to me when I realized that large watercolour palette boxes were neither convenient nor useful for my painting style, that is to paint […]
Tiny 30 Watercolour Palette Box Modification- DIY Watercolor Box
I have talked elsewhere about my tiny watercolour box that it is actually a modified old cigarette case. This box turned out to be the most convenient box for outdoor sketching as it is small, compact and super lightweight.

Royal Talens the company that produces Van Gogh watercolours, updated recently this line of watercolours by adding some new colours and improving the consistency of the already existed ones.

A modified Prang vintage metal box and my new colours
Let me present you here how I modified my vintage metal Prang watercolour box. This was a box that was gifted to me among other Prang boxes. The metal box was the most promising one and so I took the decision to change it a bit. This box’s dimensions are 21,5 x 5x 1 cm […]
Prang watercolour sets review and lightfastness test
Last September I received as a gift a variety of Prang watercolour sets, sent to me straight from US. Prang watercolour sets are ( as far as I know) very popular school watercolour paints. They are not available though at European market and the sets that are retailed from European online stores are ridiculously expensively […]
