How to Use Viviva Colorsheets
Meet Viviva Colorsheets: Pocket-Sized Watercolour Magic
If you’ve ever wished you could carry a full set of watercolours in your pocket, your bag, or even your shirt pocket (yes, really!), let us introduce you to the Viviva Colorsheets.
These little booklets look unassuming, but inside are 20 vibrant watercolour pigments infused right onto paper. Think of them as travel-friendly palette where each colour lives on its own swatch, separated by water-repellant sheets so that they don’t smidge or bleed into each other. It’s compact and fun to have!
How to Use Viviva Colorsheets
Grab a brush – any brush will do, though a water brush makes things extra portable. Dip the brush in water, then gently touch the surface of the pigment. That’s it! A light touch is all you need to pick up each rich colour.
From Vermillion reds to Persian Blue, the pigments glide onto paper with just a dab, making painting on the go a breeze. You can paint directly from the colorsheets, or if you want more of a batch (e.g. a big wash or a background), dab the pigment onto a palette and mix up a whole pot of colour.
Why We Love Them
- Super compact: Fits into a purse, pocket, or sketchbook sleeve.
- Variety of sets: Choose from the original colours, a spring-inspired palette, or even a shimmering metallic set.
- Long-lasting: A single sheet can go a surprisingly long way – you will be amazed at how much pigment is packed into each swatch!
- Perfect for travel and sketching on the go: Just pair it with a sketchbook and brush, and you’re ready for plein air painting, cafe sketching, or impromptu bursts of creativity.
The Viviva Colorsheets aren’t just practical, they’re playful and fun to have! They strip watercolour painting down to the essentials: brush, paper, and pigment – no jars, no bulky palettes, no fuss. Whether you’re travelling light or just want to sneak more art into your daily routine, these little booklets are a brilliant companion.
