Love this! I actually got these for my daughter and I to use together for art time. It has more colors for us to use than I could hope for and they glide on. It’s also big enough for both of us to use together without knocking into each other. I really like this set and would get it again.

Highly Pigmented. A Little Goes a Long Way

This KINGART 511-36 W/Brush, Set of 36 Watercolor Paint Set, 36 Piece is quite a gem, with a large variety of colors in a thin, compact set that is travel ready. I usually have an art kit I keep together for my kids that we travel with for down time, and this has become a favorite for my daughter, who likes to paint wildlife. The colors are highly pigmented, and for the detail work she does, this is perfect.

Great watercolors. Beautiful colors. Great variety

These are great watercolors. Now, I'm not a professional painter or anything. I got these to paint with my son and they work great for that. They are really nice quality and I love the wide variety of colors, but they aren't so expensive that I'll get upset if he mixes the colors or something. You can blend and mix colors if you want, but with 36 colors included, I felt like every color I wanted was included. There is a small brush included which is good for detailing, but you should probably get a simple set of different sized brushes. The case is nice and protective as well. No complaints from me. These are very nice and affordable.

Good set to have on hand

KINGART Set of 36 Watercolor Paint Set.
Wonderful set for anyone first starting out with watercolors.
Has a good variety of colors to choose from and a brush included though you will want more brushes.
Now we have several in our house who are beyond beginners when it comes to painting.
I still like to keep some basic supplies on hand though and this one I like because of the ease of use.
There are simply times when lugging out the big pallets are too much for a small project I am working on.
I am finding this is perfect for some fine tuning or the more delicate pieces we are working on.
The colors are easy to clean up when needed.
This is overall simply a wonderful set to have on hand and especially if you have any littles thinking they might like to try watercolors. Great way to get them started just hand them a canvas this set and sit down with them to enjoy the day of creating together.

A lovely (and easy to use) paint set.

The colors are rich and easy to mix, and the color range is terrific. It comes with a high quality brush, as well. The Kingart brand produces excellent art products, and this one will not disappoint.

Student Grade (Low Pigment) Watercolors

As you can guess by the low price, these are student grade watercolors and as is typical They have a low pigment load. They are pan pastels most of which were unattached from the tray (see photo). I appreciated the dips in the lid for mixing my colors and making diluted color. These paints are good for light washes or for the classroom teacher on a tight budget who does not need bold color. Honestly I think the colors are too close together in value, you don’t need them all separate like this, if you just have a set of primary colors you can mix your own blends to get this range. None are deeply pigmented so if you want that you must choose professional grade paint instead. They are what they are for the price so with this in mind I will rate 4 stars = Like It.

Range of Colors; Good Pigment

Kingart's pan of 36 watercolor paints is great for beginners or students. Not only is it super affordable at $10, but you get more colors (so less mixing). The pigment is vibrant and doesn't flake. At this price, this is a good starter set for experimenting with watercolor.

Love this set! Just starting to learning, very affordable!

I have several KINGART sets including the Gallery Series Sketching & Drawing Tools, Set of 74, set of 12 graphite pencils, and the Artist Soft Pastels, Wood Box, Set of 72. One of my New Years resolutions is to take some art classes. I am a beginner, the water color set is quite nice with 24 colors, but difficult for me, the small compact of 36 colors is much easier to work with at home. The set is compact and great for storage in a small place or my travel bag to take on trips. I have a watercolor instructional book to learn and very excited about this set. I just completed one of the assignments! I am very pleased with the price of this set, it’s very affordable as is their other products. I cut out the back of the box and taped it to the top to quickly identify the colors.

Lots of great colors, Easy to Use, Great for beginners

This is a fun set of watercolors. For beginners, the variety of colors makes this a really great set to start your journey into painting. The paints wet easily and well, the colors come off the brush nicely. The brush is a basic thin brush, easy to use for beginners and for fine lines. The only negative was that a couple of colors were slightly broken off (during rough handling?) but this was just two of them and it really didn't detract from using the colors at all.

Here’s the color list

The colors are MD yellow, lemon yellow, pale yellow, white, light pink, delicate rose, orange red, orange yellow, crimson red, scarlet, deep rose, rose, light purple, purple, burnt sienna, magenta, cerulean blue, navy blue, sky blue, dark rose, yellow green, Prussian blue, ultramarine blue, royal blue, sap green, green, light green, viridian, brown, red ochre, Hooker’s green, moss green, black, gray, raw sienna, and yellow ochre.

Very nice to have an inexpensive set that offers good quality in a number of colors. Since the colors are so close to one another, they may tend to get blended in the set, especially if used by children (which Kingart does suggest). Other than wishing the colors were more widely spaced and wanting a few more brushes, I’m quite satisfied with this beginner watercolor set. The colors are very pleasing and with so many to start with, they can be blended into so many more.

But that’s JustMe.

Beautiful paint set!

I know longer have a little kid - my teen daughter and I have been having fun unwinding and painting with these watercolors. You never outgrow nice watercolors! When I first saw this palette of 36 paints, it reminded me of a fresh big box of crayola crayons - just in terms of so many colors. There are 36 cakes of paint. Some of the colors are quite close, particularly some of the yellows and blues. I like the included brush, though we already had a sizable collection of brushes that we continue to use. The colors are deep, vibrant gorgeous, and blend well. This set is a pleasure to use and I imagine the majority of water-color painters would love these. The box says "designed in New York, mad in China."

abit too much residue

We liked the amount and variety of colors in this set . The included brush was of good quality. The colors blend well and it is easy to blend in the container The main issue we had with it was the amount of residue it left behind which was like chalk .

Bright, colorfast, easy to use and clean-up

I was provided a copy of these paints specifically to write a review. That said, I try to be honest and open in all my reviews.

These 36 color, portable, pan, watercolor set are a beginners set.

There are lots of bright colors, and your little angel or older aspiring artist is going to be able to produce brilliantly colored paintings immediately.

I love the selection of colors, and the box has a listing of the colors by location in the pan. There is a lot of paint here. I did five paintings with these pans, and there is hardly a dent in any of the paint pots. I imagine that you could paint dozens of pictures using this set if you are reasonable in your use of the paints.

A couple of notes ... these are not (and are not advertised as) a professional, paint set. They do not have the transparency or miscibility that you would expect from a professional set.

On the other hand, these cost about 10% of what you could expect to pay for the same number of colors at the professional level.

The price is right!

Beautiful colors, easy to use, no smells, easy to clean up, ... these are nearly perfect beginner watercolors.

Well done Kingart!

Great for Children and Beginners

The KINGART Watercolor Paint set is perfect for the beginner artist. It has a wide variety of colors so there is less need to mix colors but still have brilliance in your painting. The cake colors are bold and can be watered down to be lighter. They come in a convenient case that can also double as a mixing palate. My older kids have really enjoyed painting with these. Some of the paint cakes came free from their spots when my daughter dropped the paints but the cakes did not break and were easily returned to their proper places. They hold up even when someone gets them very wet. I had fun trying my hand at watercolor painting. I was pleased with the colors and the way they mixed. Definitely get some watercolor paper.

Endless color combinations

Three dozen colors! It makes you dizzy with the possibilities. The KingArt watercolor kits are great for experimenting before you invest in a large amount of any color. The colors are vibrant and combine well. Of course, one brush isn't enough, but it's a start.

We have gotten several Kingart art sets for our daughter, who is artistically inclined and about to turn eight. They are always good products. This paint set is no exception. These containers of paint are better than tubes, simply in the way of messiness, or lack thereof. That's a big plus, if you're a parent who doesn't want smears of paint left around you child's art work space. The assortment of colors is generous and makes for good color mixing. It's nice how the set has so many colors, yet is so compact, as space consumption is always an issue in our house. The only complaint I have, and the reason for four rather than five stars, is that the provided paint brush isn't great. I felt the need to buy a few separate, higher quality brushes.

Lots of variety, easy to use set

This lovely little watercolor palette is much easier to use than the tubes, which can be rather messy and require a separate palette with dips in it to contain the pigments. This terrific starter set comes with lots of colors to simplify the mixing process, which can happen either in a separate palette or on the canvas itself. Adding a very small amount of water, you will get saturated, bright colors, which become lighter and more transparent as you add more water. The brush isn’t amazing, which is to be expected. Can you manage with it? Sort of, but it makes more sense to invest in a couple of decent brushes to get started. Otherwise, this is a very complete set!
