{"product_id":"rosa-gallery-botanical-watercolour-set-24","title":"Rosa Gallery Botanical Watercolour Set 24 Full Pans, Transparent Single Pigment, Artist Gift Uk","description":"Twenty-four transparent, single-pigment watercolours chosen specifically for botanical illustration - every colour in this set was selected for the layered, luminous work that flowers and plants demand.  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e ABOUT THIS SET  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e Botanical illustration is a technique built on transparency. Every petal, every leaf, every stem is painted in layers - thin glazes that let light travel through the paint and bounce back from the white paper, creating that characteristic glow that separates a skilled botanical painting from an ordinary sketch. It only works with the right colours.  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e The ROSA Gallery Botanical 24 is a palette assembled with exactly this in mind. Instead of a general-purpose selection of mixed pigments and opaques, every colour here is transparent or semi-transparent, and most are single-pigment. That means when you layer Madder Rose over Opera Rose, you get a clean, glowing result - not a murky mess. When you glaze Quinacridone Violet over dried Cobalt Blue, the violet stays true. Predictable, reliable, clean.  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e THE COLOURS  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e What sets this palette apart from a standard 24-colour set is the depth of the rose and red range, and the deliberate inclusion of specialist colours that most general watercolour sets leave out:  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e REDS \u0026amp; PINKS - a full spectrum for petals:  \u003cbr\u003e Cadmium Red Light · Bright Red · Madder Red · Madder Rose · Opera Rose · Magenta Rose  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e PURPLES \u0026amp; VIOLETS - for shadows and depth:  \u003cbr\u003e Quinacridone Violet · Violet  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e GREENS - three distinct shades for stems and foliage:  \u003cbr\u003e Olive Green · Green · Emerald Green  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e BLUES - for cool shadows and skies:  \u003cbr\u003e Blue · Cobalt Blue · Ultramarine  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e YELLOWS \u0026amp; ORANGES - warm flower tones:  \u003cbr\u003e Cadmium Lemon · Cadmium Yellow Light · Cadmium Yellow Deep · Cadmium Orange  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e EARTH TONES - for bark, soil, and rich shadows:  \u003cbr\u003e Yellow Ochre · Burnt Sienna · Umber · Sepia  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e SPECIAL:  \u003cbr\u003e Titanium White (704) · Black Grape (747)  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e A note on Black Grape: this deep wine-purple tone is one of the most useful colours in botanical work - it creates rich, transparent darks in the deepest shadow areas of burgundy roses, dark dahlias, or overripe berries. It behaves nothing like black. Standard watercolour sets rarely include it.  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e THE PACKAGING  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e The set comes in a compact cardboard box with a plastic blister insert that holds each pan securely in its own slot. Pans don't touch each other, which means no colour contamination when you open the lid and reach for a shade. The cardboard case closes firmly and keeps paints neat between sessions - it's a practical format that takes up minimal space on a desk or in a bag.  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e SPECIFICATIONS  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e - Pan type: Full pans - 2.5 ml each  \u003cbr\u003e - Number of colours: 24  \u003cbr\u003e - Packaging: Cardboard box with plastic blister insert  \u003cbr\u003e - Pigment type: Transparent and semi-transparent, mostly single-pigment  \u003cbr\u003e - Binder: Organic gum arabic  \u003cbr\u003e - Pigments: Finely ground organic and inorganic  \u003cbr\u003e - Lightfastness: High  \u003cbr\u003e - Brand: ROSA Gallery - professional fine art line, Ukraine, founded 1996  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e ABOUT ROSA GALLERY  \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e ROSA is a Ukrainian fine art brand established in 1996, exported to over 15 countries and stocked by major UK retailers including Jackson's Art.
