I paint kindness rocks and am building a platform that will change how people view painted rocks, and how art can impact others. Rock painting is an art niche that really took off during covid when people were cooped up inside but longed for that human connection. Artists painted messages of inspiration & hope and left them “hidden in plain sight”. That niche has steadily grown over the years with no signs of slowing down. Rock painting is affordable, accessible and lets artists share their art with others (on the sly).

Handmade watercolor usually comes with mix hue rather than one solid hue, so it's understandable if lots of them are less pigmented and have more fillers. It's made from sometimes different kind of pigment with different watercolor benders, so the quality could be hit or miss since it's a home-based production. Also, the prize could range from affordable to high end if the maker use high quality pigment. But I can assure you, they had great color scheme/theme, that you don't have to mix any primer color to make it. P.S: Some of these collections probably not handmade, but didn't have a brand name, so I keep them included.
