The HIMI Semi-Moist Watercolour Set is an ideal choice for students, hobbyists, and artists on the go who prioritize convenience without sacrificing pigment quality. Featuring 38 vibrant, semi-moist shades housed in a compact, round travel case, this set allows for instant activation with water, making it perfect for plein air sketching and quick studio studies; however, the soft consistency of the pigments means they take slightly longer to dry on paper compared to traditional dry pans.

Yes, these pigments are compatible with most standard water-based paints and can be mixed on your palette.
The HIMI set is designed for student and hobbyist use; however, it is always recommended to wash your hands after painting and avoid ingestion.
Store in a cool, dry place and try to keep the case level to maintain the integrity of the semi-moist pans.
The set is designed as a complete unit; while individual pans cannot be removed, the variety provided covers most mixing needs.
The included brush is a versatile general-purpose tool, but for very fine, intricate details, you may prefer a dedicated detail round brush.
While the palette is easy to clean, some highly pigmented colors may leave a light tint on the plastic lid over time.
Reduce the amount of water on your brush or dab the bristles on a paper towel before loading them with pigment.
Ensure you rinse your brush completely between colors and avoid leaving excessive water in the pan after finishing your painting.
Work with thinner washes and avoid over-saturating the paper to accelerate the evaporation process.
To get the best results, start by placing a small drop of water on the colors you intend to use; this will ensure they are ready for your brush. Since the set is semi-moist, it is important to keep the case horizontal during transit to prevent pigments from shifting if they become overly saturated.
After each painting session, rinse your synthetic brush thoroughly with clean water and pat it dry. Wipe down the mixing lid with a damp cloth to prevent color staining. Always leave the lid open for a short period after use to allow any excess moisture in the pigment pans to evaporate before storing the set in its closed position.
