Let customers speak for us
from 535 reviewsI love the palette. It's cute. I really like having both smaller spots and larger spots for mixing. It suits me fine.
I enjoy the paints. They are very vivid and quite staining. I cut pieces of the colors and place them with tape into a folder with a piece of wax paper between the pages the size of my current journal. Then I have them at the ready for painting in my journal.
Sidekick. I'm not disappointed with the Sidekick, it's fine. But one suggestion I have is that you make it with tabs. You could even number the tabs or give them names. I have to flip all the way through usually until I fine the color I want. I had to place a piece of wax paper between them when moving between the colors or the pages stick together because they are wet. Maybe you could put some kind of sheet of nonstick paper between then? After my wax paper addition, I feel good to take them traveling.
I'm no artist, but some of my friends use this product and it was very enticing. I ordered a set of my own and love it! My only issue is sometimes the colors get stuck to the backing of the next page but it's okay.
My daughter and I both have the Antique palette now. We enjoy painting together and my daughter loved using your paints. She is in for a surprise when she gets the Sidekick on her birthday. Let the fun begin!
These are lovely colors and having them expanded how I think about water color. I use them in a lot of places where I wouldn't think about painting. All you need is the pallette, a brush with a water holder attached and a paper towel. What fun!
There are a whole bunch of little tiny pieces and a couple really big pieces and that's a good variety of colors. Some of them are really vibrant and look really great and there's a couple that aren't as strong but still pretty cool. I think they are experimental colors maybe? I'm not sure.
I love these and all the other products - so vibrant, love the colours and how easy they are to use, as well as being my no. 1 pick for best travel paints!
They are nothing short of perfect. All of the colors are so pigmented! I feel like I can take art with me everywhere now, I’ve been using them endlessly out and about. Perfect for travel or a commute!
I first discovered Nicholson’s Peerless Watercolors around 1995-96 at an art supply store in Napa while we were wine tasting. I still have that set too. It amazes me how cool these pages of various watercolors make painting so much easier during those moments whether outside or inside with limited space. Of course this isn't limited to limited spaces😁 but, they last long and I've been able to utilize them in a variety of ways, where mixing too isn't problematic. I wonder what a complete set of all the colors offered would cost? I purchased a set of the Sidekick for myself and one for my girlfriend’s granddaughter who's showing excellent skills as an artist at 14. I even have a couple of boxes of Peerless watercolor bottles. This latest set I had purchased not too long ago ‘The Artist’s Palette’ I still have yet to use them. The Sidekick has been my faithful companion and is still taking licks of my brushes giving me the desired pigments I need while painting. Attached are the two most recent paintings I created for my girlfriend’s two youngest granddaughters using the Sidekick.
They are SO easy to use and you can have them with you no matter where you are. The colors are also depthy, not pale can washed out. I use them all the time.
These are really vibrant, extremely portable, fun paints to play with ! I will be back for more ;)
I have tons of Nicholson’s paints. I love all of them. Hair colors, face colors, flower colors, and much more. I’ve introduced my daughter to these amazing paints and she loves them too. (Shhh…. She doesn’t know it yet, but I will be gifting her more of Nicholson’s paints for her upcoming birthday.) You can shop with confidence if you buy paints from Nicholson’s.
Haven’t had time to use them yet
The Sidekick Peerless watercolor set is unbelievable!! Fabulous colors and the clever setup, each patch separates into a flippable tab, allowing You to determine which 5 colors you want access to in the moment - who would have thought dry slips of paper could be the most portable Watercolors in the World - Pure Genius Peerless!
I purchased this as a Christmas gift and I was so happy that it was quickly shipped so it was here when my guest arrived! Thank you very much! I think the Sidekick looks like so much fun and love the ease at which it can be used. I have the original set and would love to have this set too. I love the ease of using these paints for travel or being out and about and appreciate their bright colors. I've even used mine in the hospital waiting room while waiting for my daughter to have surgery, it was a great way to forget I was in a hospital waiting room. I purchased the portrait set for myself and am looking forward to adding the colors to my other set and trying them. Thank you again for taking an extra effort to get it in the mail so I could gift it when my guest was here!
Love these paints — easy to use and very pigmented!
