Thanks for your video ❤ have you ever tried to varnish any and see if they would fade?

I am glad this video helped. I was also very impressed with how Napels Yellow from Daniel Smith mixes with other colors. There are recipes and rules that can be followed for predictable mixing results but I do not mind mixing everything. I may get a lot of muddy colors but every once in a while I get a gem.

Interesting variety of results! I've never thought of using Naples yellow in place of Yellow Ochre; I'd like to experiment with that. The Anthraquinone Blue looks like another I'd like to try. Thanks for the video!

I enjoyed the swatching-lots of interesting information, and it's very relaxing to watch. I used to use a lot of Winsor & Newton colors many years ago, and I'd like to go back and try some of them again.

Bt. Sienna is what a former wc teacher called ‘the magic colour. You can add it to any other color and it will desaturate it in the nicest way. Much less so than paynes grey!

Those are very pretty colors! Thanks for sharing. It's fun and interesting to see different art supplies and hear your experiences.

I've heard Sonnet are very good for a student grade range. I have a set of White Nights that I like, and a set of Kuretake and Van Gogh for my student grade paints for messing around with. Always love a good swatching video, thanks for sharing this unique tin!

Hey great to see this followup! I returned a Kuretake set I got and never unwrapped because I looked into the pigments and they were disappointing. (If you search for Kuretaki Gansai Tambi pigment chart and you will find one on their website. You're right, they make no claims about lightfastness.) From looking at the pigment chart it looked like the blues and greens would be pretty lightfast, but the reds/oranges/yellows/purples were suspicious. It's great to see your actual tests though. It turns out that "permanent" markers like Sharpie will also fade in light, and that can also kind of fool your eye when examining swatches. I suppose one could use india ink to avoid this problem, maybe if I ever get around to doing any tests I'll try that!!

That’s so crazy to pay 40$ for a yellow tin. Y’all pls. Just buy an empty tin for way less. Like half. So crazy.

I live in Phoenix Arizona where much of the professional life pass testing is done and from the test that I've conducted and feel of using them I would have to say that they are a lower to middle end of artist grade. They are not what I would consider student grade at all.

I have the pigment information for you, I have had them for years , on my second set now. Warning: I do not remember where I got it and it might have changed since, but here goes: Zinc white is PW4, Hanza lemon is PY3, Yellow medium is PY13, Gold ochre is PY3, PY2, PR102, Orange is PO13, Red light is PR2,0 Carmine is PR170, Madder lake red is 63:1, English red is PR101, Azure is PB15:3, Ultramarine light is PB29, Blue is PB15, Bluish green is PB15:3, PG7, Violet light is PV2, Violet deep is PV3, Emerald green is PG7, Sap green is PG7, PY3, Green deep is PG8, Raw Sienna is PBr 7, Burnt sienna aslo PBr7, Sepia is PR102, PR187, PBr 7 and lastly Lamp black Pbk7, PR631, PB15 Also note, keep the plastic thingy on top of the metal layer, it will stick to your paints Enjoy!

I tested them and the orange, madder and the 2 violets are not at all lightfast. The other colours are fine.

Rosa also has the 3 row tins. One of them is turquoise, super cute. Thanks for the video 😊

I have wanted that yellow tin too but I don't need ANY more paint.

Thank you for this and I'll be watching to see how they turn out~

Hullo, it is always good to see progression reports on a lightfast test. Thank you.

I don’t know if this would work for you, (especially because you’re filming in real time)but when I do my value strips, I mix up a large puddle of thinnish watery amount of paint+ water which I feel is value 1. Then I paint the entire strip with it. Let dry completely and then glaze…but only from 2-10 this time. Dry completely then glaze from3-10. Dry. Then glaze from 4- 10. Dry…and continue to build up the layers until you reach 10.Kinda tedious, but it does reveal the values!

I was wondering whether to buy this book and I am definitely going to get it now. Your paintings turned out really well and are very pretty. I hope to do as well as you!

Very nice. Dee

I’m surprised that PY93 is not lightfast. I thought it had was at least 6 on the blue wool scale. Thanks for sharing your results 😊.

I love the results with the cobalt teal!

Very fancy!

Thank you 🙌🏼

Windsor & Newton have a granulating medium. I forget to order it to try it. Also mixing the tube watercolors with liquid graphite can result in granulation. I also don't want to spend a lot of money on granulating paints if possible. Good video 👍🏽

Is it bad that Rose of Ultramarine is my favourite here? I think it's because I prefer mixing my own violet, but I'd better find a use for the couple of quin violets I have. Thanks for the comparison!

I'd love to see more mixing with your other granulating colors!

I especially loved the deer picture - so sweet. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing this video. I am a beginner in watercolor and I appreciate your paintings and also the sources that you are following and learning from, whicn I have not seen mentioned before.

Hi Gabriela Thank you for this review of my book! You are very positive and respectful but honest too about the slight problems such as not having exactly the same colours. I am glad you enjoyed it and your paintings are excellent. Ann

I love mixes of cobalt teal and transparent pyrrole orange!

I enjoyed this different approach and found it useful and enjoyable to watch!

Nice video! I really love the mixtures with the cobalt violet. It is such a beautiful color on its own and a surprisingly great mixer.

Thank you, beautiful mixes. I noticed there was a shine on the paint, why is that?

Thank you for reviewing this book. It looks very good and just what I’m looking for; I think I will buy it. Your artwork is excellent and your painting style is very neat. I will be very pleased if my results are half as good.

You certainly did do well following the Flower Book. Keep it up You are doing so well, i'm inspired!

Hello again Gabriela. I had the same excitement unboxing Denis's new earth pallete. Subscribe to you.

Super Gabriela, i just unboxed the same set. I will do a similar flower sketch. following your lovely example, You gave this beginner much confidence. Do another soon please. Are you doing a swatch video? hi from the Colorado Rocky Mountains in Frisco,Colorado.

your sketches are beautiful

Great video, could be very powerful for beginners. I feel like this video deserves so much more, waay more then 6 views. Hope beginner artists will find this video soon. Stay connected Gabriela.

I think you got a lot of nice potential skintones on your first chart! This palette is probably as good for human skin colors as it is for animal fur colors :)

Hi Gabriela! Thanks so much for giving my set a try and for all the kind words! I do hope you've been enjoying it <3

Beautiful colors!
