Continuing the Palette Tour | Re-evaluating Beam Paints (Watercolor)

Re-evaluating Beam Paints watercolors after a few years (how was 2021 so long ago?!) The short version: The smaller wells make it harder to get paint, which the process slower. The paint stones from the Mother Earth set are more opaque and contain larger particles that sit on the paper. Mixes with these paints become muddier. Similarly, some of the colors in the Spectrum 11 are PW6 mixes (Morning Peach and Robin's Egg Blue), which makes them more opaque. They also make poor mixing colors. Some of the paints have very low tinting strength. Overall, these paints are beautiful on their own, but don't suit my painting style at this point, which relies on using a limited set of colors that can be mixed and layered heavily.
