Relax & Paint | Budget Watercolor Comparison for Beginners

Описание: Budget watercolor comparison for beginners — testing affordable watercolor pan sets to find the most beginner-friendly option for relaxing, creative painting.

In this video, I compare four different budget-friendly watercolor sets to help beginners choose paints that feel welcoming, enjoyable, and easy to use. (Not affiliated with any set used in the video.)

A local gallery gift shop asked me to curate beginner watercolor kits, and I wanted to thoughtfully test a range of affordable options before deciding what to include. I looked at how each set activated, how the colors mixed, the quality of the brushes, and how approachable each one felt for someone just starting out.

This comparison includes:
00:01 Intro
01:12 🎨 Crayola watercolor set
04:02 🎨 Prang watercolor set
06:07 🎨 A generic bulk watercolor set
09:18 🎨 Daler Rowney Aquafine travel set

I share what surprised me, what worked well, and why I ultimately chose Crayola for the beginner kits — keeping creativity accessible, playful, and low-pressure.

This video isn’t about finding the “best” paint overall, but about finding the right fit for beginners who want to explore watercolor as a calming, creative practice.

Because art isn’t just something we make —
it’s how we come alive in the making.

Thanks for spending this quiet creative time with me.
With peace and paint,
Sami
