Yes folks, it's a long one! Nearly an hour and a half of calm swatching over the course of two autumnal days at the end of October. I've decided to do something different in this one and I've broken up the swatching with views of our garden, and later on, you can see the house and garden at dusk as I head out for a walk before it gets dark. This video is perfect to put on in the background while you work. Make yourself a hot drink (Green & Black's Hot Chocolate or Clipper Organic Tea with milk and one sugar for me!) and sit back, relax, and enjoy these beautiful colours. I'm swatching several different mediums from the October Art Haul including coloured pencils, watercolour pencils, Neocolor 1 & 2 wax pastels, gouache, acrylic gouache, paint markers, watercolour pens, graphite matt pencils, acrylic paint and acrylic ink.
.... you're a woman after my own heart with the Green & Black's HC 😊... team it with a slice of fig & date crumble cake & my word, you're in heaven! 😋 xx
Wow 1,5h video, such a treat! Going to save this one for Monday and work on my own projects while I'm listening and watching this. :) Thank you for giving us longer videos once in a while, you are perfect companion while I'm working!
I watched yours a little while ago and enjoyed it so much - I'm in the studio today and you kept me company too! I have no doubt I will watch it again during the week as I find your videos so relaxing. :)
Seriously never imagined how much I'd come to enjoy swatching vids, relaxing and has definitely informed my supply shopping. Love a long vid, thank you!
You're so welcome, thanks for watching! I totally understand what you mean though, as they're also one of my favourite style of videos to watch on RUclips. I have them on in the background while I'm painting!
I ended up spending a lot of my day today painting, doing studies while listening to you switch your paint? You do have a knack for doing these, your voice is so nice. Also I do enjoy a good swatching session!
I definitely love a good swatching session lol I think every time I watch one of ur videos I see something new or learn something new thank u for sharing with us and I love the footage of ur garden and house outside so beautiful
Perhaps there's an animal/s in the wall? I'm not sure what kind of modern modifications can be made on historical homes in the UK, but if the walls are old it's entirely possible as it gets cooler that wildlife might have found a route in through a less-edified part of the house.
I really do love a good swatching session! I wondered why so many people left the same comment.😁 So many great colors and new products to try. I love your house in the country. What a beautiful place to make art💕 I bet you have squirrels or some other creature in the walls, but it would be amazing if it were something a little more otherworldly 👀 Keep us posted.
Ha ha, thanks for making it to the end! ;) Oh, we definitely have paranormal activity here - so many different things have happened that were definitely not animal/wildlife related (although we have that too!).
I do love a good swatching session! 😄 I drew a darling little toe garden in my sketchbook in the spirit of the season while I watched. Literally toes being grown in mounds of soil. I figure it's something rural trolls would cultivate. The urban trolls get theirs at whole foods, but nothing beats fresh from the ground in the troll's opinion.
Ahhhh the perfect hour and a half being sick, snuggling in my bed and watching swatching! Thank you for sharing your time with us. I would love a video on your inks and how you use them. I have quite a few too and want to put them to better use. Also you can buy a very fine liner that screws right on the high flow bottle and use it almost like pen. I got a couple off of Amazon. ( and I watched every minute❤️)
I broke down and bought myself the full set of the Stabilo 3 in 1 pencils. They're water-soluble, but I've found an alcohol blender meant for alcohol markers works really well, to blend them together. The colors are brighter and they behave better and stay where you put them.
I love a good swatching session! I love seeing how the products you purchase look swatched. It really helps to decide if they would be a good addition to my plethora of art materials….. can’t really have too many of the right ones. 🥰 Thank you for sharing your valuable time, thoughts and new art materials. I appreciate you very much. Love, Fran
I love a long swatching video, even a year later. Is interesting, we love the same products and colour palette. I didn't realise W&N had a potters pink acrylic, so yay. I use my watercolour one most painting sessions. I have added the Liquitex light pink to my wishlist now too.
@@sinikka9434 hi, I am German, too. And I find Kremer is also very pricy to be delivered within Germany. Nevertheless it is worth it! And I am really really happy that Jackson’s have reduced their delivery costs for us again, so we are able to enjoy brands like Roman Szmall again without massive shipping costs. Unfortunatley all custom fees are soooo expensive. It was so great before Brexit….🤷♂️, and it’s really a shame that you have to pay those also for deliveries under 20 Euros as it was before July 2021. (ok, I must admit that I rarely stay under 20 Euros🙈). Nevertheless I love buying from Jackson’s. Especially their customer service is so fanatic what I had to learn after a parcel was hold (or better got lost) by customs for almost three months, although all fees were paid in advance. By the way…., what do you mean by Lyra factory outlet? I have never heard about that?!
I love a good swatching session. ❤️ l’m waiting for the ‘green light’ to join your patron group when it begins👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻 . Some really interesting supplies swatched. Thank you so much 😊 X
I love a good switching video! This has been such good company today whilst I've been drawing. I'd just added some neo colours to my jacksons basket and you swatched a couple of the colours so I could see that my choices were good ones! Thanks for the video!
I ❤️ a good swatching session! I live in a very rural area, hours away from an art store. I enjoy your descriptions of colors, so helpful to people like me who don’t have access to see the choices in person before ordering. Thank you!
"I love a good swatching session!!!" And your art haul/swatch videos are truly the best. Thank you for always bringing your viewers joy and inspiration. Many blessings 🙏 ✨
I'm late to the game but I love abgod swatching session! So happy to have come across your channel. Can't wait to watch more. Thank you for sharing the beautiful shots of your home and garden, it's just what I imagine when I think of an old English country home.
Swatching is pretty much the only thing I do with my own supplies as I can’t draw, lol, but must buy everything! So I, too, love swatching videos.... it’s all I do on weekends to wind down, watch YT swatching and haul vids 🤗🤗🤗 I have full set syndrome so never understood why/how people can only buy some things... until I watched your videos... and went and bought diff single supplies with just colours I liked (some Polychromos, drawing and graphitint, etc) the other night... was fun, can’t wait til they get here! Now I need to look into Pablos I see.... lol
Thanks for making it to the end, Laurel! ;) For some reason the thought of my video combined with American Sunday Night Football is amusing me greatly. 😁
Thanks Molly! I actually have on my list of 'videos to film' an idea to do a series, where I focus on a different colour each time. Whether this will be on exclusively on Patreon or not, I don't know. But it would be very interesting!
I love a good swatching session….with you, Natasha! I was watching while doing some other things, but I was watching and sometimes I’d miss something and then have to go back or look something up on the web. So many colors I want to make note of. And thanks so much for the quick outdoors view and a peek at your beautiful home! What a “treat!” (A bit of Halloween humor…just a bit.)
I love a good swatching session ^^ I haven't experienced a lot of mediums, so seeing just how different the hues and textures are between each product is AMAZING. Thanks! And hope you get a warm cuppa to soothe your voice after chatting to us for so long
Yes another good swatching session to love! 2 videos in a row. I love all the yellow olive greens at the moment. Thanks for the relaxing time, Natasha. In kindred spirit Eliza Dulwich Hill, Sydney Australia x

Thank you so much for posting this right now. I just hit a wall trying to organize my art supplies and now I have the perfect reason to stop.
I'm happy to provide a temporary distraction, ha ha!

Hi Natasha, it's so relaxing to see you swatching all these beautiful colors
And you have Kremer 🥺 I live in Poland and wanted to purchase Kremer watercolors but delivery is sooo pricey. Kremer is the best 👌
Have a good day! 😊
😅 oh, I've added this comment before watching the whole video, and Natasha talk about Kremer too 😅 oops
@@CATAZTR0PHE Aren't Roman Szmal and Renesans from Poland? I love the Roman Szmal watercolors but shipping gets pricey for me too 😅
