Well that’s how you do it, check out stuff and find what you like.
Started out roughly the same like 2-3 years ago :-)
I also like to have the possibility to have “popping” colors and I found Pebeo water colors “encre aquarelle” (literally watercolor ink), you’d just need the 3 base ones (cyan, magenta, yellow) to make any colour except grey, so a grey is good too :-)
That’s very interesting, just 3 colors and make any color from those. I’ll check them out, thanks. The white is from the same box. It actually ended up pretty transparent, which is why I couldn’t even show much foam. The opaque white parts you see are just the paper where there are no colors lol.

And they sure pop!
So what’s the white :-) ?

Hah yeah water color paper “eats up” the white color, I’m looking into more heavy color (IDK, different guaches maybe) to make better white.
I love mixing colors, and if you don’t try for brown, (or a dirty look/feel) you just use two of them, so it’s quite easy too!
Add water to make it lighter, let dry and paint on top (dry on dry) to make darker.
