Watercolour Mixing: Schmincke French Ultramarine & Michael Harding Purple Haze (lots of granulation)
Hello Everybody,
I'm still posting videos from the past. I did a whole series of mixing my Michael Harding Watercolours with Schmincke French Ultramarine (PB29), and this is the last one. MH Purple Haze uses the same pigments as Daniel Smith Shadow Violet: PB29, PG18 and PO73.
I'm switching in a Khadi cotton rag paperback book: store.evansartsupplies.ie/product/19801/Khadi-Cotton-Rag-Paperback-Book/).

    Hi Sonya you got some good mixes there, very nice. I would like to see any of your videos as I enjoy your channel and find it relaxing. I haven’t got an ultramarine that I really love so I might invest in the schmincke one when I order next. Dee

    Hello Sonya, thanks for the for the informative video. When I use Qor the colors, they are so much brighter than what I saw on my screen in this video. Did you use natural/brownish paper maybe or is it my screen? Also the PG 50 is Cobalt Teal, I believe. The cobalt turquoise is darker and PB 36. 😊😊

    • @sonyaoart

      Yes, the paper is a cream colour, so it takes away from the brightness a bit. I always mean to mention it but never do...Thanks for watching!

    Hi Sonya, well I ended up getting a couple of tubes of Jackson’s watercolour but haven’t had time to try them yet. Then I got an email from Ken Bromley today showing the new Windsor and Newton revival colours. I’m sure those companies are trying to bankrupt me 😳
