I don't remember why some of the tubes explode like that (it might've been pressure related), but it often helps to squeeze the tube without opening, just a little, the opposite way to normal so like vertically, it sucks some of the paint back to the end of the tube. It also helps when the tube is open and you squeeze too much, it sucks a lot back in. There are other ways to try and stop that, like one of the other comments said, I also recommend Teoh ' video ☺️
I started on my watercolor journey about 18 months ago. I started with the Cotman paints and then started buying the Daniel Smith tubes as my colors started to run out. I don't know what the prices are like for you but here in New Zealand I found it was cheaper per half pan to buy the Daniel Smith tubes and fill the pans myself, than to try to replace the Cotman half pans. The initial outlay per tube is high, I buy the 15ml tubes, but overall it works out cheaper. One color I would recommend if you plan to do any beach scenes is Buff Titanium it's great for sand and mixing with other browns for rock colors. Then I'd also add either Cobalt Teal or Phthalo Turquoise or both lol. They're lovely colors for the sea. Any of the Quinacridones are nice mixing colors too. I've never gotten around to buying Burnt Sienna, I bought the 3 color set that had Quinacridone Burnt Orange, Undersea Green and Carbazole Violet as some of my first Daniel Smith colors and the Burnt Orange works great in mixes in place of the Burnt Sienna.
Quinacrodones are my favourites no matter which colour it is basically
I love them too! Xx
Carbaozle violet is an excellent purple. I had to spend a lot of time researching the purples in DS to find my perfect purple because of the same issue you had. Some of them are just kinda weak or hard to rewet or granulating. I am not a fan of granulating either. Carbazole is highly pigmented and very juicy. My other favorite is Pthalo Turquoise. I am a huge teal/turquoise fan so I went on a quest to find a good one when I started watercolors and it was the only one that didnt have crazy granulation but I might have to break that and grab the Ultramarine Turquoise cause it leans a bit more green which is nice too.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, lady! You have a voice made for reading audiobooks; I could listen to you explain stuff and tell stories all day. Also, I love the colors that you selected for this palette. It’s a perfect mixing selection. I have a few color suggestions for future additions to your palette. 1. Daniel Smith Green Gold - this paint is a gorgeous three pigment mix (PY150, PY3, PG36). Generally, I prefer single-pigment paints, but this color is literally perfect if you like to paint bright greens for a spring or summer landscape as well as florals. If you decide to try it, I don’t think that you will be disappointed. 2. Quinacridone Violet (PV55) - I have both the Winsor and Newton Professional and Van Gogh versions of this color and they are both delightful. I’m not a purple person, but I do enjoy this hue of purple, and I think that it might be a good replacement for the Cobalt Violet that you had issues with. I’ve heard nothing but bad things about Cobalt Violet from watercolorists on RUclips, so it must be a very difficult paint. If you decide to try it again, I think that watercolors with a honey-based formula (i.e. Sennelier, Roman Szmal) produce versions of Cobalt Violet that have better flow, but I think that it’s still a weak, low-tinting pigment. 3. Cobalt Turquoise Light (PG50) or (PB28) - This is the perfect turquoise blue/green for skies or seas. I started with the Winsor and Newton version which is PG50 and I also fell in love with the White Nights version which is PB28. The latter has a sticky consistency since it is made with honey. They are similar and interchangeable but there is a slight difference between the two. I love both so I have them in separate palettes. 4. Buff Titanium - I first purchased the Daniel Smith version of this color and it’s indispensable for painting beach sand and light cobblestone or brick. DS makes a single pigment version (PW6:1) but I actually prefer the Van Gogh student grade version which is a two-pigment mix of PW6 and PBr7 because it doesn’t granulate and is better for mixing to create muted tones for when I paint still life interiors. 5. Sepia - I love the Winsor and Newton Cotman version of this color because it’s only slightly deeper than Burnt Umber, which I generally like to darken for skin tones anyway, but I can lighten my Sepia with Burnt Sienna if needed to make it look like Burnt Umber. I haven’t used the W&N Pro version, but I would imagine that it’s deeper, maybe deeper than I would actually like. The Van Gogh Sepia is also lovely. I could go on and on, but I look forward to seeing which colors you add to this current palette. Please keep us updated and thank you for an awesome video!
My favorite general colors are Sap Green and Indigo or Payne's Gray. The Transparent Pyrrole Orange of Qor is also one of my favorites. I've currently been enthralled with highly granulating colors, and the Manganese Blue from Prodigal Son's is my favorite one of that PB33 so far. I have my students buy the Split Primary set from Daniel Smith when I teach my Beginner's Watercolor class, and after the 6 weeks of mixing with just the 6 colors, I suggest they buy Burnt Sienna, Sap Green, and a dark like Burnt Umber or Indigo or Payne's Gray to add to their set. I haven't read the other comments yet, but I did a whole video on Cobalt Violet and how bad I thought they all were. I did finally find one I liked (Prodigal Son's), but they are nearly impossible otherwise.
New to watercolor and I found this video to be very helpful. Thank you!
So glad you found it helpful! I hope you enjoy your watercolour journey JR! Xx
For potratis I tend to use more of a burnt umber as I felt the ability to mix burt sienna if I really needed it but with burnt umber I find it helpful for darkening yellows without getting a green tint.
Apparently, cobalt violet IS supposed to be like that, something to do with the pigment itself. I have tried it in Schminke, Daniel Smith and QoR they were all grossly gummy, but I've recently learned that if you put enough water and pigment together, it's somewhat nicer. I found the same issue with a pale cobalt green.
With respect to the exploding, I always hold the tube very lightly at the bottom with the cap upright and tap the cap about 10-15 times before opening the tube. I think it helps the paint settle back down into the tube, and releases any air bubbles. I'm like you I HATE losing a drop of paint. That stuff is so expensive :)
I love granulation and my favourite DS colours are Green Apatite, Rose of Ultramarine, Blue Apatite, Undersea Green, French Ultramarine, Nickle Azo Yellow & Imperial Purple.
Thank you so much for sharing Jacqueline! I will try your tips and hopefully kiss exploding paints goodbye! 😂
@@SketchesnScrubs much luck!
I just ordered my first set of Daniel smith paints!! Very excited 😍
I’m excited for you Amber! Hope you love your new paints x
Mine exploded, too!! You worked with it and saved the paint! My cobalt violet barely shows up and I was so disappointed!! Awesome palette! 😍❤️🤗
Bummer! In case you missed it, don’t ever get terra verde, it is the exact same thing! I got cobalt violet from Sennelier and I checked, it behaves this badly as well
Love the colours. I have ordered rose of ultramarine to try as a purple. I love quinaquidone gold and prussian blue
Good choices! Thank you for watching x
You could add Rose of Ultramarine, It's great for florals. And Opera rose, if mix it with blues, it makes beautiful purples
Indian yellow and rose of ultramarine are stunning Daniel Smith colours! I don't have many but these two are beautiful! Love your videos and cannot wait for your dot card video 😘
Quinacridone Rose is by far my favourite colour but Rose of ultramarine is a close second.
I’m a beginner watercolorist, but I still enjoy using artist grade art supplies. I have three 15ml tubes of Daniel Smith paints and one on the way. I don’t feel precious about my tubes of paint but I do feel precious of my small set of Sennelier half pans. It’s too cute to use. Before I bought it I thought I wouldn’t use it because it’s so pretty, but my will is weak LOL. I enjoyed your video, thank you!
I love granulating paints. It is so fun that there are so many to choose from and that we can find the ones that we like. You could try unfolding the black end before opening to see if that relieves some of the pressure. I really enjoy the Sodalite Genuine.
My fave Dan Smith...I love so many I have 2 pallets full of paints, but I'll try and narrow this down a BIT. potter's pink, rhodonite genuine, quin coral, quin burnt orange, Hansa yellow deep, indigo, lemon yellow, undersea green. Amarzonite genuine, perm green light, Mayan blue dark, blue apatite genuine, phathlo turquoise, Moonglow, piemontite genuine, burgundy yellow ochre, perylene green, phathlo blue turquoise, shadow violet. If you're looking to replace the cobalt violet (cobalt watercolors are notoriously hard to rewet in my experience) carbazole violet and rose of ultramarine are both excellent! DS does tend to overfill a lot and they can explode like that. Teoh has a video on seeing if a tube is about to blow and how to potentially help avoid that btw. Can't wait to see more paintings!!
Actually I have 2 regular pallets and 1 pallet of just the iridescent/duochrome/metallic etc novelty paints. I can't resist!! I'm a weak woman!!!
I find Daniel Smith Burnt Sienna not as much granulating compared to their other G paints.. But if you don`t want granulation at all, you should get Quinacridone Burnt Orange and Quin.B.Scarlet
I love a nice French Grey! I think I works beautifully for warm rainy day landscapes. Love this video too, very insightful and helpful!!
I’m proud to say that I have mostly mastered the art of getting the paints in the pans without dirtying my hands aka no wastage! Yeah the first DS paint that exploded on me I was surprised, and lucky to have a half pan ready to get that paint into. Phew. Now I always open the tubes above a pan just in case… 😅
Loool I do the same! xx
Thank you for your video. Great inspiration
Thank you
Thank you! ❤️ hope it helped x
I have all except Cobalt Violet (phew). Girl you seriously have me pulling out my paint palettes and painting, thank you. Now I’m going to do paint swatches and see what granulating colours I have! Keep creating 💜💛💙
Excellent video with great information!
Thank you so much Marmy Yetter! I’m glad you found it helpful x
Really nice video! My friend~Thank you so much for this great sharing~ ~~~ : )
Wow! ...I have never seen anything like all that exploding; you managed it well :)
Yea Cobalt Violet is a notorious color- very weak and very hard to rewet. And unfortunately Daniel Smiths is one of the worst and dont know why the Brand still sells it. The best Cobalt Violet available is from M Graham and Romal Szmals Cobalt Violet Deep. Winsor and Newtons is okay if you get the half pan instead of the tube, all other brands are generally horrible...Dr. Oto Kano on youtube does a bunch of pigment and color comparisons for major artist grade watercolor paints and she compared Cobalt Violet for all the major brands and they all were horrible (except Mr Graham, Roman Szmal and Schmincke and Sennelier-but Schmincke and senneliers cobalt violet is a hue so their version doesnt really count). Great video. Thanks for sharing. Much love
I love DS New Gamboge and Lemon/Hansa Yellow. I’ve also recently started using Cadmium Yellow because of its opaque quality, great for stamen over darker petals (instead of using gouache), as well as Cadmium Orange and Cadmium Red.
I believe the French Ultramarine is not granulating, if I recall correctly. Everything else (pigment, opacity, translucency, light fastness) seems the same as far as I can tell. It’s the same with W&N French Ultramarine and Ultramarine. Now I’m going to have to go online to see if this is the same for the other brands that carry both.
Burnt Sienna and Ultramarine make my most favorite shadow - it’s like a Payne’s Grey but I have more control whether I want to lean more blue or brown depending on the subject - though I use Prussian Blue instead of Ultramarine when making shadow for botanicals as this shadow leans green.
In addition to writing the color on the side of the pan, I also write the brand on the short side - because I have some colors in multiple brands and I like to mix up brands in a painting but I store the pans in palettes designated by brand.
I’ve watched a ton of videos where I’m told that mixing warm and cool primaries make mud. I didn’t actually experience this until I was making the rainbow for your collab with A&O (prompt 3). I was using a cool blue but when I tried to mix it with a warm red, I got a muddy burgundy. When I used a cooler red (magenta) with the cool blue, I got the vibrant purple I was looking for. I learned what everyone was trying to tell me. LOL!
Great job on the video, BTW, bloopers and all. I wonder if the exploding tube is related to an air bubble getting pressurized during the travel from Seattle, Washington here in the US to the UK. I’ve never had the exploding problem with my DS but have had it happen to my W&N, which traveled a great distance to get to me here in California. Very interesting…
Lily, you must truly love to paint.
French Ultramarine does granulate, PB29 is a granulating pigment and you can't really find one that doesn't. The one I've heard that granulates the least is Schmincke's Ultramarine Finest. The difference between Ultramarine and French Ultramarine in the DS line is that the regular Ultramarine is cooler and the French one is warmer (also is series 2, I believe. Either way, it is more expensive than Ultramarine).
@@godzandheros I don’t know what magic W&N does, but according to their dot card, Ultramarine (Green Shade) is non-granulating versus French Ultramarine which is. Perhaps its a typo - though Ultramarine GS doesn’t seem granulate on my swatch card. But you’re right about the DS - both are granulating.
I have never tried this brand but they look really good quality - loved the demonstration - Big Like👍🏻 Really enjoyed the content - Great work thanks for sharing 🎨 👍🏻 👩🏻🎨
I had the exact same problem with Cobalt Violet (bought it this weekend). For the price it’s a real disappointment. I have cobalt violet deep and cobalt blue violet by Daniel Smith and they’re lovely, but yeah cobalt violet should be reworked.
Moonglow and shadow violet are beautiful DS colours if you’re into granulation. Aussie red gold is also a gorgeous sunset colour. Quinacridone fuchsia is very pretty. I love all the greens in the DS range they’re so versatile and granulating. In the blues I like Indanthrene blue and Indigo. I probably have way too many DS colours 🤣
Cobalt violet varies so much by maker. There’s few I like. Just ordered some from Jackson’s and can’t wait to get it and test it out.
I really appreciate your videos!
Woww so beautiful
Nice work my dear friend👌
I've had the same experience with cobalt violet and Terra Verde from various brands. From what I've understood their weird texture and low tint is a common feature since these colors are usually used as underpainting and/or light final washes.
i would love to try daniel smith watercolours but they're so expensive compared to local brands like schmincke so i just buy what's available in the art store even though schmincke isn't cheap either lol
Nice video. 👍Thanks for your sharing🙏
Unfortunately I have no experience on Daniel Smith watercolours. There is only one shop in Athens selling them and they are so expensive! ☹️ Amazing nail polish by the way! So glad to be able to watch your premier!
@@SketchesnScrubs You are always so kind!!! 💕
Useful tips!!! thank you!
At that price, I too would be salvaging every single bit of it! Do you honestly feel that Daniel Smith paints are equivalently great to use as the cost suggests? The price puts me off, along with a few other silly things not worth mentioning here. Mrs Grumpy signing off with a 🖐🏻⭐️🎨🖌😻
@@SketchesnScrubs ouch...!!
I completely agree with you about DS Cobalt Violet ... it is a color not worth buying. I have a lot of DS watercolors, including Cobalt Violet and it is a color that DS either needs to discontinue or reformulate, in my opinion.
Thanks for the video! I don’t have the DS Cobalt Violet, but I do have the W&N (gum arabic?) and MGraham (honey binder I think) versions, both PV14, and they are both temperamental, so I don’t think it’s you or Daniel Smith. It might be the properties of the pigment maybe? Interestingly when you swatch both out side by side, the WN is very pink and the MGraham is definitely leaning purple, heading to lavender. My sentimental faves are
DS Rose of Ultramarine, and Cascade green, which could possibly make some interesting floral/botanical studies especially if you are happy to let the water have control. Have fun with your new palette!❤️👩🏽🎨
Cobalt Violet is one of those pigments that is low in tinting strength and super hard to re-wet across the board. I'm not sure what the use for it is, but I assume people like using it to add granulation to their mixes and that is a simple way to do it without adding a strong tint to it like adding a phthalo to anything lol
I just found your videos a couple of days ago and I’m really enjoying them. It’s always good to find someone as obsessed with art supplies as I am. What is that? 🤪. 2 questions: what is your name and what does MVP stand for? Thanks, Helen 🇨🇦
Thank you for this amazing video, I have watched it twice now! Payne’s Grey is my favorite, what an amazing color! And about the Cobalt Violet: I don’t think it is “broken” at all, because I know exactly what you mean by that. Unfortunately there are paints out there that have this weird quality of being super thick and gummy but also translucent, like it’s a clump of binder with little output of pigment. Terra Verde is such a color, I got two version of it and it’s always the same thing! Looked so pretty on the tube sample color as well as in the pan but it’s crap on paper. So sorry this happened to you and thanks so much for warning us, I will definitely stay away!
Ughh I've been having the same problem but with my acrylic gouache, however I didn't act as fast as you did and ended up wasting the paint 😂💔 this is not a color I often use but I really working with ultramarine 😍
@@SketchesnScrubs it was Holbein acryla gouaceh. I didn't expect for the paint to be almost liquidy so I wasn't ready mentally for what happened 😂
This is amazing video my friend.. informative.. thanks for sharing. joined you.
it's so great art, I love your page, dreamy😍💙 thanks for sharing
look my urban sketching too my friend💜
Do you remember your nail color and brand in this Video?
Nope, this is common problem with cobalt violets. but I like W&N version in pan
@@SketchesnScrubs we are well, thank you. how are you, working long hours? I admire how you have the will to paint with your job being so responsible, and you put videos out on regular base.
Sadly that's the nature of cobalt violet, it's very low staning, hence low colour payoff.
@@SketchesnScrubs maybe because quite a lot of violets in that hue angle have a high tinting strength so it’s more suitable for delicate palettes. Plus it’s got quite a high chroma value, which is pretty much not mixable. Plus it granulates, unlike dioxazine purple. Maybe give holbein’s gouache version a go? Or check out its swatches first :P the hue is a bit different but still a lovely colour.
Colorful and informational. The problems with cobalt violet should be reported to quality control at Daniel Smith. Perhaps you and your subscribers who purchased that color could receive an account credit or an exchange of paint color. The company probably has contact information on the package. Your video will be viewed by thousands of people.
ugh hate when tubes explode and then wont stop exploding! so much mess
thats a great idea!
Love your pallette. Have you tried Moonglow (Daniel Smith)? It's a wonderfully moody/misty kind of color and mixes nicely with other colors.
Yes I have! I like it, though I don't use it often enough. Thank you so much for watching and sharing x x
