Hi, first time commenting. The watercolor in big ceramic pans kind of look like the gansai tambi watercolours from kuretake. If memory serves me right, I once saw a video that explained that they don't behave like regular watercolors, because these are supposed to mimic 'old' watercolors back in old/ancient China/Japan/Korea. Considering Paul Rubens is a Chinese brand: In China they paint(ed) in a traditional art style called 'ink and wash painting' that uses these kind of ceramic pans. The pans are big, because it prevented the tip of the brush to lose its shape and to make sure the whole brush gets as much color as possible.
Thank you for the input! That makes a lot of sense. The squirrel brushes are so delicate, it would be painful to smush them in a half pan to pick up colors.
I have one squirrel brush and it's great for filling large areas or painting light washes since it holds a lot of paint/water. For something like a portrait, you often don't need to dip the paintbrush a second time and risk potentially change the consistency/shade, which is good. I have no clue about those ceramic pans, they are very odd! I can get behind a payne's grey kind of shade but that big GREEN??? 😮
Maybe for verdigris? I don't use watercolor much but a friend of mine does and she likes doing a wash of green before starting the rest of the painting

The packaging is soo beautiful! I love the pattern of the embroidered box. 😍
Jaw dropped, so pretty! I've never received something this lux before.

Yes this huge green, I will never use it up! The dark blue makes a lot more sense for me.
I got a fun prompt idea, how about a lighthouse by the lake type of scenary.
That's a cute idea!
Maybe the big ceramic pan watercolors are for really big brushes?
Yes for the squirrel brushes or large flat washes on a big sheet of paper.
Looking forward to the large ceramic pan watercolours video :)
It's up!
Vi a artistas de china y japon usar paneles asi de grandes para hacer un lavado de color o el fondo de un trabajo creo que es para eso!
Unrelated but I love how the PR box is quality and beauty and not trash
Right! I was STUNNED and am using it for decor inside my house!
Wow they’re beautiful! I think you should paint more water stuff :)
I will!
its probably sad that i would just really love that box lol
no I was shocked when I opened the cardboard box and saw this blue box! I'm using it for decor in my house, it's sooo pretty!
