As I mentioned in the video - I am a total amateur when it comes to paint-making. Any handmade paint experts out there - I would really appreciate any tips you might have to share! I also left a great article in the description box that talks in-depth about the type of binder and pigments shown in this video. I found it while this video was uploading so unfortunately, could not talk about it in the video but please take a look if you're more interested in the pigments! As always, please leave any suggestions or video requests below. I would love to know what you would like to see more of!
like you yourself said in the video you need a "humectant" in your paint, glicerine, honey, corn syrup work for this pourpose, if you only have the binder, the paint is gonna be really hard to rewet, secondly, you are mulling your paint a bit too fast you can know this because there where a lot of bubbles, now, bubbles are /bad/ but they will remain in there while the paint dries, so you will find them again when rewetting your paint. so just fo a slower when mulling and you also dont need to apply any force, just let the muller glide on the glass slab :)
@@carolinaarias1669 Wow, so many great tips thank you so much! The insight about the air bubbles is really great to know - I was wondering why that was happening. thank you!
I personally am a beginner too, but i would recommend testing your batches, as you can QUICKLY get a too big batch. So make sure to have enough pans! Furthermore, if you ever use earth pigments you'll need clove oil, because that's what make sure your pigment will not mold! I personally use glycerine & honey in my paint. (:
ChoosingKeeping is such a prestigious brand! Even their children art line is great quality (and serves as a more affordable option for me). I'm glad they recognize how talented you are! This video was great
i actually went to the store after your video on them! I wander around the covent garden area often so im surprised I never ran into it. I chatted to the floor assistants whilst i was there and they told me alot of people have come in and bought from the store due to your video on them.
@@rosietales It's not been there that long - a couple of years? There was an amazing bead shop on that site for many years. I'm a little sad that's no longer there.
The pigments are really lovely. Making paints by hand is a good way of learning how the different pigments react when testing out different recipes. I look at is an advance watercolor study. Just remember to use protection when making paints, I would also advise using a maks when working with pigments. I don't know how many pigments still are toxic, but breathing in fine dust could potentially lead to some health issues.
A month ago I was inspired by artists who make their own watercolors and wanted to make my own too but I didn’t want to buy pigments & binder. So I just crumbled a tiny bit of my graphite pencil into dust and mixed it with honey on two pieces of scotch tape. I also used a random metal stick as a mower. As a result I got almost a half pan of really good water-soluble graphite:)
They say that buying art supplies and making art are two separate hobbies. It is so true, at least in my case. Pigments you just bought and papers they were wrapped in are gorgeous! 💗💗💗
Thank you for the video! So beautiful and relaxing, I will make sure to purchase my next watercolour supplies from here! Your appreciation for the craft behind these is lovely .
Oh my, they are lavishing their gifts on you! And each one is wrapped so lovingly as well. How wonderful to be treated to these amazing and special art supplies. I'm very happy for you, and thank you for sharing.
Omg I'm loving this videos of choosingkeeping supplies!!! I'm thinking to save some money and buy from them, your reviews really paired with their style ✨ Hope you're safe!!
私は日本画を大学で学び、今は時間がたっぷり取れる時に制作をしています。素晴らしいビデオで海外の方に絵の具を紹介してくれてありがとう😊 I studied Japanese painting at university and now I'm working when I have a lot of time. Thank you for introducing Japanese painting items to peaple all over the world with a wonderful video.
I want to be just like you. You’re so calm. I’m in love with it. I will not copy you though. Cause I know how it feels to be copied, I didn’t like it. So ya. I’m very inspired by you. Thanks.
I gotta say, I absolutely loved this video! Made me feel so relaxed. I’m so glad it showed up on my recommenced as I already watch these flatlay aesthetic videos. The whole unboxing of supplies and paint making process was so lovely and calming to watch!
Do you guys know anyone else who makes this type of videos?? I just love Pearfleur's content so much I think I already watched all of her videos at least twice I NEED MORE calming and nice artsy videos to watch while working pleeease
What a treat and feast for the senses. Each thing is absolutely beautiful. I look forward to seeing more on mixing the paints. I am very curious about this as well. Thank you for the lovely video.
thank you! yes, the next video will be up as I do more research about the pigments and process. I'll talk about the mistakes made, and what I've learned in that video!
Oh...oh...I am so glad I found this channel! This art haul is so DELICIOUS! Everything is wrapped like presents! What a perfect touch. I hit subscribe almost right away!!
It’s a lovely video. I read your comment that you would like to know more about handmade watercolours. A J Ludlow makes high quality professional watercolours in the UK. A J Ludlow follows the footsteps of traditional artists’ colourmen worked closely with artists to produce the watercolours that meet artists’ need. You will find more details on A J Ludlow’s website. I hope the information is useful 😊
I love choosing keeping!! I went recently and it's such a lovely vibe - totally recommend everyone to go! I only wish I had enough money to drop because everything in there is so lovely and such high quality!!!
You may not be aware but Choosing Keeping only wraps the items like yours are wrapped if you specifically ask for it and you have to pay extra for this service. I had commented about how impressed I was with their beautifully wrapped items that you mentioned on your RUclips channel when I ordered from them for the first time but they let me know this was done only at an extra cost if I request it. So normally they just wrap items in small white shiny paper sacks of varying sizes and secure with one of their bird stickers.
Thank you soo much for introducing about Choose keeping !! I didn’t realise how my city has wonderful art store and fallen in love with their products✨
Such a beautiful video! - I also would love to try making my own watercolour so I find it fascinating and great you're documenting the process through the eyes of a beginner! ^^
Ive been following this channel for so long and i love how ive heard the confidence grow as its projected in ur voice, maybe im wrong but ahhh ur voice used to be so soft and shy. I love the growth 💕🥺
Simply stunning. Choosing Keeping make an art of shopping - everything is so carefully thought out and exquisitely presented: it's a truly a treat even to watch you unbox these supplies, let alone have them myself!
Well...I don't know if all art students do that,but when I was preparing for fine arts university we used to buy pigments and vinaville glue, instead of acrylics or watercolors, because it was way cheaper...I am studying painting for 3 years now and I still have most of the pigments I bought when I was preparing for uni...
ChoosingKeeping's shop in Covent Garden is one of my favourite places just to wander around. I love their hand lettering supplies & their inks are to die for ^^
Edit* Okay, the stuff arrived and it was pretty nice. I ordered from them something that was "In Stock" four weeks ago and then a few weeks later they sent out an email that it's on back order and then no updates. It kind of bummed me out as I would have just waited until it was in stock to buy because the other things I wanted were also not available and maybe I could have got them all at the same time.
Happy Tea same happened to me. I also had to pay for the items to be wrapped in the paper they wrapped her lovely gifts in or similar. They don't treat all customers the way they treat her. Thought I would enjoy my purchase more than I actually did but the wait even after paying for express shipping kind of blew it for me. I had to email them to see when I would get my order a week after I ordered. That was when they told me the paint brush I ordered was on back order. I wasn't impressed... Sorry.
I also have an interest in Japanese pigment painting (Nihonga), you can find pigments and pigment sets like yours at Pigment Lab Tokyo, they're the only Japanese Nihonga art supply store that I've found that sell to overseas customers. They also provide instructions on how to prepare the paints on their RUclips channel.
beautiful video I loved it. I am a beginner in the art of painting and would like to know where I can buy these pigments to make my own watercolors. would you have a store to refer me? ps: I live in Brazil
How can I turn a really small drawing basis into a full drawing On a bad quality old sheet of paper A small pencil And a hard and stained eraser? I also have a pencil sharpener- Can someone help me? My mom is on me since I "started" and didn't "finish" that "drawing" that I just made to spend time and to be a bit of a base Help How do I "finish" it?
I just found you (and this video) and agree with you with Arleebean's videos also! I'll be following you now! Love your videos (I love your book binding video and I was hooked! :) :)
i would not say you were making watercolor but more like gansai paints. That is because of the binder, it is made of glue/gelatin, normal binders for western watercolors are usually vegan and are non sticky such as Gum Arabic.
Popping into say that making your own paints is great because you can design how they behave and how they age (instead of finding out through trial and error/extended periods with premade paints).
It's really heart warming to see people supporting small businesses..... My dream is always to start a small business and this really makes me so happy to see tht somebody is really appreciating it

I really appreciate companies who use eco-friendly packaging instead of the bubble wraps. Big points.
Wow...Such a sophisticated art supplies!! As I'm a huge fan of art supplies, I want to get them all!
Ya same🤩✨✨
Gotta catch 'em all
Me too. But it isn’t possible to get all of them
ChoosingKeeping is such a prestigious brand! Even their children art line is great quality (and serves as a more affordable option for me). I'm glad they recognize how talented you are! This video was great
I love how lovingly that company prepares and packages your order! It's just so charming I hope they never change that.

Oh, that is so sweet to hear! I’m so glad you were able to go in person :-)
I must admit I was one of them, I also wondered why I never found out about the store before.

Yes! A big mistake I made in this video was not wearing gloves, but I was wearing a mask behind the camera - thanks for your tip!
Paints like cadmium are VERY toxic! But i do ask, what mask do you use?

HI Loved the video, I also would like to get the same set you used. What is the name of the tools you used to grind the pigments (the glass item)?
U really have been spoiling us! Your videos are always so pretty!!

Never have I been this early. I really love your arts and videos, you give me inspirations. Anyway, keep doing what you love 💘
I am so lucky to find your channel. I have learnt so many things about organic colors, I truly feel blessed.

How can I turn a really small drawing basis into a full drawing
On a bad quality old sheet of paper
A small pencil
And a hard and stained eraser?
I also have a pencil sharpener-
Can someone help me? My mom is on me since I "started" and didn't "finish" that "drawing" that I just made to spend time and to be a bit of a base
Help
How do I "finish" it?
This whole channel is just so aesthetically pleasing I love it
Wow these colours and your art is a perfect and awesome team 😍😍
Just checked the price of the brush, correct me if I'm wrong but $25 pounds for a synthetic brush seems expensive
Jayarie damn, yes it really is. i knew the store had to be expensive but 30€ for a ~#8 paintbrush is... naw
yes!!! this is just what I needed to wake up to
I just found you (and this video) and agree with you with Arleebean's videos also!
I'll be following you now! Love your videos (I love your book binding video and I was hooked! :) :)

Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful art supplies secrets! 😍😍
I hope someday i can buy art supplies from choosing keeping. I literally have all the art supply i wanna buy on my cart on their websites lol.
I'm just wondering who clicked dislike on this video, and why??😂 this is the best video
So beautiful I wish I could afford to buy these supplies I want to try mixing paints
