{"product_id":"grumbacher-academy-watercolor-artists-sketchbox-set","title":"Academy Watercolor Artists' Sketchbox Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwelve essential colors in 7.5ml tubes give you the core palette most watercolorists actually use in the field. Grumbacher's Academy formulation balances affordability with genuine pigment performance, these aren't student-grade substitutes that fade or separate, but working colors that handle transparent washes and layered glazing reliably. The included palette features twelve individual wells for each tube color, three dedicated mixing areas, plus a large wash zone for preparing bigger quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo brushes cover fundamental techniques: a red sable round for detail work and controlled strokes, and a flat wash brush for backgrounds and broad coverage. The sable delivers the snap and point control that synthetic alternatives struggle to match at this price point. Everything fits into a compact carrying case that protects tubes from crushing and keeps brushes separated during transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe instruction booklet addresses basic watercolor principles, transparency, wet-on-wet techniques, color mixing fundamentals, useful for painters developing their approach beyond casual experimentation. This configuration works equally well for plein air painting sessions and studio studies, providing complete materials in a self-contained format that eliminates the \"what did I forget\" anxiety of assembling supplies piecemeal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grumbacher","offers":[{"title":"set of 12","offer_id":48102310674661,"sku":"11468","price":88.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s11468.jpg?v=1768580103","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/grumbacher-academy-watercolor-artists-sketchbox-set","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
