I use artist quality watercolour pigments by Winsor & Newton and Maimeri Blu.
A limited palette of colours is often all that is needed for a successful landscape painting.
My palette has warm and cool versions of each of the primary colours plus a few earth colours.
I usually choose from the following limited range:
Lemon Yellow
Cadmium Yellow
Alizarin Crimson or Permanent Magenta or Rose Lake
Light Red or Venetian Red
Winsor Blue
Cobalt Blue
French Ultramarine
Raw Sienna
Burnt Sienna
Burnt Umber
Payne's Grey
Neutral Tint
My paper of choice is archival quality, acid-free watercolour paper made by St. Cuthbert's Mill: either Bockingford or Saunders Waterford (100% cotton). I have also used a 100% cotton paper made by the Chinese firm Baohong.
