{"product_id":"daniel-smith-watercolor-dot-cards","title":"Watercolor Dot Cards","description":"\u003cp\u003eCommitting to full tubes of colors you've never actually used. Each card carries genuine Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor in concentrated dot form, the same professional-grade pigments found in their tubes, just dried onto heavy paper. Touch a wet brush to any dot and you're painting with real watercolor, not a printed approximation or inferior substitute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese cards function as portable testing stations. Evaluate how Quinacridone Gold behaves on hot press versus cold press. Discover whether Lunar Blue granulates enough for your seascapes. Test color combinations before mixing larger quantities. The dots contain enough pigment for multiple studies, letting you explore a color's characteristics through actual application rather than guessing from catalog swatches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerious watercolorists use Dot Cards to audit their palettes before investing in rarely-used specialty colors. Students build color knowledge by working directly with professional pigments. Traveling painters carry cards as compact emergency backups. You're testing the actual paint you'd purchase, observing how it lifts, granulates, and mixes under real working conditions. Far more reliable than guessing from printed charts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daniel Smith","offers":[{"title":"266 Dot Card","offer_id":47979518001381,"sku":"09168","price":35.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"66 Dot Card","offer_id":47979518034149,"sku":"09171","price":6.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s09168.jpg?v=1770307070","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.com\/products\/daniel-smith-watercolor-dot-cards","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
