REVIEW: Finetec Watercolor Palette

If you are a hoarder like me, you will find a need and a purpose for every art material that exists in this planet. I mean, who could resist these pretty FINETEC palettes that has so much sparkle??? I totally need these for my Christmas cards, right? RIGHT :p

These colors are made from mica pigments (which is a natural source of metallic shades, based on what I read) and can easily be blended. You can use these pearlescent shades/metallics with a brush, pointed nib, or a broad edge pen.  Finetec is basically a watercolor palette so all you need to do to "activate" the color is to add a few drops of water... and voila! 

Here are the Gold palette shades: Tibet Gold, Inca Gold, Arabic Gold, Gold Pearl, Moon Gold, and Sterling Silver
