Can anyone give me some advice about choosing materials for watercolor painting as a disabled person who has to spend most of my time in bed? I have paper, and can probably scrounge up a bed easel. But I've only ever bought supermarket paint sets, and I'm looking for something a little nicer. How do I get started with those cool little pans? I need a way to work without a water glass, if possible, don't want to spill in bed. I want to paint flowers and stuff like that. #art #watercolor #advice

@temporal_spider These are ridiculously convenient and can be found online everywhere. Fill it with water and you're all set.

Pentel Aquash Water Brushes

@penpencilbrush @temporal_spider absolutely. For watercolour in bed: perfect (I can attest! 😁).

@penpencilbrush @temporal_spider but don't buy the cheapest ones: some work, some don't. They leak. Or they are blocked.

Pentel or Derwent are reliable - better with one or two of these than 6 leaky ones! Meeden is ok.
