Watercolor Supplies

Watercolor supplies have existed for many years. In fact, the painting style is known to have existed since at least Egyptian times. However, it is hypothesized to have existed for many centuries earlier.

There are a few basic watercolor supplies which the beginning watercolorist needs. Of primary importance are the paints, of course. These may be purchased in either block or tube form.

Brushes are other important watercolor supplies. Sable types are generally considered the most ideal as they have fine points and hold a lot of pigment. Also, they are very reliable when it comes to springing back into shape.

A strong paper type which can handle being loaded with water is another need. Many watercolorists may also enjoy experimenting with mixing mediums to thicken the paints.
