3		If there is a "-" sign, it means that I couldn't find a good counterpart. In this case, you may want to: 1) mix other colors to find a good match; 2) use different colors, or 3) use colors from a different brand.
4		Remember that even though pigment numbers can be the same, the colors may look different in different brands. So treat each color individually. They are all beautiful in their own way.
5		Above all, remember that colors are always LESS important than tones. You really don't need exactly the same colors. Always make sure that your tonal values are correct. That's the key to a successful painting!
6		Below you can find the most up-to-date colors from my palette (I use Winsor&Newton Professional Watercolor Paints).
7		Red colors are my top 14.		Green colors are my additional colors, colors I'm currently testing and they may change over time.
