This is a handy little kit for beginners or for those that would like to travel with them.  Water mixable oils are the way to go. They are virtually odorless and clean up with soap and water. They can be thinned with Modified Linseed Oil (water is NOT recommended) Your painting will dry in far less time than with traditional oils.  Also you aren't exposing yourself to all the solvents for clean up. I can now paint indoors were before with regular oils I could not. Highly recommended. Don't think they are watercolors. . . they ARE NOT. Water mixable oils are TRUE OILS.
