Just an update to this post.  I found a review for these paints on an art blog.  They are not professional paints, but she says they are good paints for a "funfessional"...and she ignored her inner art snob and bought a couple of sets anyway.  So they are not professional paints but I can attest to the fact that they are very fun.

This is not the project for this class but I wasn’t able to upload photos on the discussion page.  I am new to watercolors and have only used one set, but I thought the set included beautiful colors that were very pigmented.  They are also very reasonably priced.  I’m also including a photo of a piece I made using this set.
