I understand this pigment is loved by portrait artists, and the weak tinting strength is a feature not a bug -- because when you want to put a touch of green in your flesh tone you don't want to get too much. Daniel Smith's is not the classic hue, nor does this pigment typically granulate heavily (because you wouldn't want that in a portrait.)
aha!!!!!! portraiture! yes! that makes so much sense now :D i love how you phrased that "feature, not a bug" very well put! 😄 ooh i didn't realise DS is not the 'classic hue'. no wonder. you're so informative as per usual. thanks jenn!🥰😚
@@PaintinHiding I think I read about Green Earth on Jane Blundell's blog. I've also spent way too much time reading Handprint. LOL. I enjoyed seeing these shades -- I have a handmade one (and a sample of another) from Dan Barrett, and I know he has done even more shades. They vary but typically are soft. I admit I haven't used mine much. I will have to try it to softly tone down reds...
@@jennw6809 aha~ jane has lots of great info. handprint as well. i read somewhere about someone wishing handprint was reformatted to be more modern but i think contacting Bruce was difficult so it never came to fruition. that i know of at least.
I think the RS one is pretty and a very nice shade but I don't use it that much, it is definitely a weaker color. It is good for grassy type backgrounds when you want something subtle.
That was a bit funny. We've talked about Green Earth just yesterday on my stream and about how weak it is. Most of the brands look like RS btw, it looks like a true Green Earth to me, DS seems to enhance this one somehow too. It's a very unusual colour and look for Green Earth. In general, I think that it's a colour that people should be careful around, because it's so incredibly weak in tinting strenght and most palettes won't benefit from it. Otherwise it's a very lovely colour. :) (I myself have it in my palette and use it occasionally.) Thanks for the video!
really?! no way~ what a coincidence! 😂 but aww i missed another stream! i just saw u do those on twitch, do i need to make an account to watch on twitch? ohh that’s cool to know most brands are more similar to RS than DS. ohh u have it in ur palette! that’s cool! i think i might try to put together a lowtinting palette of colours. would be fun to see how they mix 😄
I understand this pigment is loved by portrait artists, and the weak tinting strength is a feature not a bug -- because when you want to put a touch of green in your flesh tone you don't want to get too much. It's a historical natural earth pigment, perhaps this explains the difference in hue.
@@PaintinHiding Hi! It really was! You don't need an account on twitch to watch, but you need one to chat. The YT algorythm is a bit wonky when people stream on the same channel, so many make a second stream channel, so I decided to go to twitch. But I don't have a schedule or anything. I use Green Earth to tone down reds a bit, it's very soft and nice. I don't think you'd need a low tinting palette, just a good mix, so you're most flexible with your palette.
@@LanaGoesArt oohhh i guess i should look into making a twitch account then. ahh i feel so old not being good with tech 😅😂 need to get hip with the kids these days! 🤣🤣🤣
I love Roman Szmal's Green Earth. Sometimes nature isn't vivid, and it's perfect for those moments.
ahhh you're right! for natural non-vivid colours, it definitely ticks that box :D

@@PaintinHiding Bruce seems to have disappeared off the internet! I agree!
There's also Paul Rubens. They have two shades of Green Earth.

ooohh that’s a very good use! greens dont really come to me as natural as magentas so thank you for the suggestion! 😆🥰
wow these are both beautiful! I have never used this pigment before, it looks very interesting. Oh and the brush looks really nice ^_^
yeahh~ they’re different but both beautiful in their own right. aha! im currently working rosemary brush videos 😁😉

@@PaintinHiding Don't worry, I feel old and not hip too :D
Thats the second paint from Roman Szmal that you describe as milky.
yeah, i stand by it. apparently someone else found that RS quin red was also milky when rewetting.
Wow! That was squeaky 😂
First!
🥇that's your second medal today! 😆
