Art Journaling Paints Made Easy!
Let customers speak for us
from 416 reviewsI’ve had mine for years and have just recently bought some colors I didn’t have. The product is excellent as well as their customer service. Will definitely be back for more.
The colors of the Botanical Palette are lovely and I’m looking forward to experimenting with mixing greens and using them for my next garden journaling. I’m planning on cutting smaller pieces to keep in my sketchbook.
When I read about the liquid Peerless version, I just had to place an order. The pigments can be used as is or diluted and also mixed with other shades. I will place another order to add to. my as of now small collection. Butterfly Wing is an amazing blue as are the rose colors. I paint florals and my next selections will include greens.
Love the color choices! Very easy to use …. Great for journaling!
Thank you I hope the gift is well received.
Each sheet of the Complete Edition is a generous size which can be cut into smaller squares. These smaller squares can be combined with other color squares to create custom pallets. I like to make my custom pallets in an inexpensive watercolor pad by adhering several squares to a page with double-sided tape. I can have a whole pad of custom pallets for every paint project!
If you desire a highly portable and lightweight paint option give Peerless watercolors a try. The color is super saturated and easy to mix. Great for urban sketching or painters that like transparent layering of color.
The two palettes I bought are intesting. Should be helpful when painting.
I love the beautiful transparent mixable colors! And I love the flexible pallet which can be customized for each project by showing 5 of your best color choices on top!
I enjoy the portability and the richness of the colors. This latest purchase is for a friend who watercolor paints too!
Love all the variety of colors. I have used peerless watercolors for many years and share with friends
I’ve been playing with art supplies for about two decades now. Somehow have not heard of Peerless until recently. I was a bit dubious at first. Watercolor in sheets? Really? Would that even work? What quality would the color be? How long could a dry sheet possibly last?
Oh boy, am I glad I decided to try these out. I tend to cut a bit off of the sheet, dissolve in water, and use the resulting liquid. A tiny square truly produces enough liquid to go far. Want a light wash? More water. Need an intense pop of color? Less water. Want super high contrast on a small area? Lift the color directly off of the card with a water brush, which results in easy ombré. And shading? Easy. Let it dry between layers, keep adding light layers in smaller spaces until you reach full saturation and boom, instant shadow.
The best part for me is, I like to use water media for base layers to make color pencil work much faster, easier, and more vibrant. Underpainting, I suppose. Some watercolors that use binders cause issues. Certain binders are slick after dry and it’s hard to get the color pencil (or worse, pastel) to stick. Since Peerless are dye based with apparently no binder required, this problem is officially solved. The dye infiltrates the paper and once dry, pastel pencils and wax based pencils still have some paper tooth to hold on to. Basically it’s like using blank paper in terms of texture, but with my underpainting intact. It’s perfect for multimedia.
It works on my double-sided pages without bleeding through the other side. It works on smooth paper. It works on rough paper. It works with other water media, no problem. Mix in some glittery or metallic watercolor? Result: awesome.
Additionally, it’s actually rather budget friendly. They’re super portable as well. The range includes grays useful for toning down some colors, super vivid blues, hot and cool reds, warm yellows, warm and cool greens, even a neon pink (geranium!). Because it’s super easy to change your color through water and mixing, it’s enough to provide multiple options for almost endless colors. I’ve never had an easier time color shifting in my life.
Ordered mine through the mail as that was the only way I could get my paws on them. They were securely packaged in waterproof plastic inside the box—super important as I live in Louisiana and it gets quite wet here at times. They were quick to ship my order out, provided not one but two tracking emails (sent another one to let me know it made it to my local postal truck), and included a couple of free extras in my box. They even included a creativity prompt card and a sticker. Their email was even written creatively, which I for one enjoy.
In short—great work peerless! I look forward to seeing any new products y’all invent and to using your reliable products for years to come. I’ll be spreading the word to my friends as well.
Used this with gouache and watercolor and it added just the right amount of white where needed.
As I am trying and sampling the Peerless watercolors for various paint projects , I am not disappointed in the Orange Yellow. The vibrancy of this color will enhance the Fall leaves, pumpkins and that cute little fox hiding in the woods that will be painted soon enough. In the meantime, I can see it in the pansy petal, deep inside the peony center, and of course the sunflower that brings happiness to our life. Love your paint papers!
I love these paints so much, extremely satisfied with them.

How to Use Our Watercolors
-
Step 1: Pick your Colors
Either pick them randomly (like I do) or pick a few that fit your color scheme.
-
Step 2: Wet Your Brush
Find your favorite brush, whisper a few sweet nothings to it, then dip it in some clean water.
-
Step 3: Touch Brush To Paint Side Of DryColor Sheet
One side of our paint has a wash to show you what the color could look like (this side also has the name stamped on it) and the other side is our concentrated paint - you want that side.
-
Step 4: Start Painting!
You are ready to start painting. The wet brush both activates and lifts the concentrated paint from the back of our DryColor sheet.
