I have recently been given a box of 24 tubes of 12ml watercolours made by Art for life, Spremberg, which I believe is in Germany. I have not yet started to use them and am wondering if anyone knows anything about the quality of these paints. Any comments from anyone who has had any experience of this brand of watercolours would be appreciated and, as a comparatively inexperienced watercolourist, any tips as to how I can test the quality would be welcomed.
