Tom, I've probably gotten 20 or more different watercolor colors from
Daniel Smith -- I have reservations about plugging DS because for all I
know they lock their employees in a cave in the dark on bread and water
(carbs !) -- but every one of those colors was good and worked well. The
catalog names the pigment & (more or less) shows it. The last time I
bought it their 15 ml tube was about 20% cheaper than major brands -- and
the delivery charge probably less than your gas to drive wherever...
