Boringly consistent, exactly what you want for watercolors.<br />There are too many new watercolors flavors produced each year IMHO.<br />Watercolor is not like ice cream flavors or shoes. <br />And a palette of 12-16 colors is enough.Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-2871399154300154662018-08-13T00:41:39.774-04:002018-08-13T00:41:39.774-04:00Its Never just ONE color for painting the Champagn...Its Never just ONE color for painting the Champagne or anything. <br />Its always a combination of colors...yell ochre, Naples, cad yell, brt Sienna sometimes with an added touch of gold. I'm painting the Champagne pretty much intuitively.

No big deal.<br />Because it was off-season I could just waltz in.<br />There is a charge 19€ which includes the Champagne tasting fee,<br />The tours usually take an hour and I think they are hourly...not sure.<br />Let me know if you have any other questions JeanieParisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-54498132252064393972018-08-13T00:25:37.552-04:002018-08-13T00:25:37.552-04:00Once inside the caves its cool as ice!

This might be a fun time for us during our three days in Paris in October. I love the paintings.
