Derwent have introduced two watercolour paint pan sets, one containing 12 colours and the other containing 24 colours. Designed in the same way as Derwent’s existing paint pan range, housed in a compact, lightweight case with an integral mixing tray. The portable size of these palettes and the inclusion of a Mini Waterbrush makes them ideal for travel and plein air painting.

Fine Art Colours with Lightfast Pigments

Each colour is developed with lightfast pigments, which means your artwork will resist fading over time. This set allows for both translucent applications when applying a wash or strong, vibrant marks when layered, giving you the versatility to create a wide range of effects.

Comprehensive Set with Additional Pans Available

Both sets feature a vibrant selection of colours. The colours chosen are a perfect choice for beginners looking to start their journey in experimenting with watercolour paint. Both sets include a cut-out and keep colour swatch card for easy reference. Additionally, and exclusive to Bromleys, we stock individual pans allowing you to customize and expand your palette as needed.

Consistently Ultra-Smooth Finish

One of the standout features of the Derwent Watercolour Paint Pan sets is its ability to produce a consistently ultra-smooth, translucent wash. This is achieved through Derwent’s meticulous formulation process, ensuring that each colour behaves predictably. Say goodbye to unwanted, uneven results and hello to beautiful, consistent artwork.

Versatile and Easy to Pair
