Art stores to get WN gouache, Holbein or Daniel Smith: Suders, Plaza or online stores for the deals and sets. Plaza says they can order Holbein sets if you call them and it is on their website.
You can get a primary set with red, yellow, blue and white, but I suggest buying the colors you use regularly in your palette, but it is expensive. So at least : Primary colors, Permanent white, black (prefer Indigo instead of black) burnt sienna, and ultramarine blue.
