Exploring Art Products: Koi CAC watercolors from Sakura of America

The good folks at Sakura of America were kind enough to send me their brand new Koi Creative Art Colors (CAC) watercolors to try out.  They're super special because it's a box full of metallic, pearlescent, and neon watercolors!!  Watch the video for more: 

Here are some of the experiments I made when playing with the CAC watercolors:

And my assistant, Suzanne, had some play time with them as well.  She did some lettering:

Finally, here is a color chart for reference:

This is on white paper.  Obviously, as you saw in the video, the colors look different on dark paper.

Have you tried the new CAC watercolors?  I'd love to know!

Thanks for stopping by!

  • Ahhh I want them so bad! But the link doesnt offer the set with neon and metallic paint, just the regular one, and I can’t find it anywhere on amazone. Hope it’ll be available soon 🙂
