Today I am reviewing the handmade paints from Poland by the company Renesans. They were sent to me by April at A Little Creative on Etsy: [ Ссылка ] *This link included the coupon code FRUGALFAN which will give you $3.50 off (the price of a half pan) an order of $60 or more.

BTW the swatching stamps I use can be found here: [ Ссылка ]

Here is the huge pad of paper I buy for swatching and practise: [ Ссылка ]

An overview of renesans paints. Renesans paint is a partially handmade paint imported from Poland. Although they are "handmade" they resemble traditional watercolor in vibrancy and transparency. Although some of the name may differ from what we usually see the pigment numbers are tried and true watercolor pigments. Many of the colors are single pigment colors. The paints contain honey and that makes them rewet very easily.

The paints come in the following arrangements:
15 ml tubes for $5.50
1/2 pans for $3.50
Set of 24 half pans for $58
Set of 12 half pans for $30
Empty tin for $15
*If you buy 24 half pans you get a free tin, check with the 24 assortment first to see if you like the colors as they work out to $2.42 a half pan in the 24 set so it is a better deal if you prefer most of the colors that come in the 24 set.

Pros:
Price: Awesome value-See above
Rich and vibrant color using artist grade pigments
Rewets instantly with a wet brush
Tube labels match color inside well (they use photos of actual color swatches)
Paint disperses well
Paint glazes well
Paint lays down smooth

Cons:
Not widely available. A Little Creative is the only USA distributor and she will start shipping to Canada soon but if you live elsewhere you may have a hard time finding these paints.

The browns in the 24 set are a bit muddy (so I recommend adding the tube burnt sienna, it sings!)

Overall impressions:
Honestly you can't go wrong with this paint. I think the tubes would be my preference because they are such a fantastic deal, at least a tube of the burnt sienna to go with a pan set because it is one of the richest, cleanest B.S. I have seen. Or starting with a pan set and refilling with tubes as you use them up. With the renesans paint you are getting real artist paint at student quality pricesandI have no qualms whatsoever recommending these.
