Hi Jane! I did some research for you here in UK & I found 2 online shops that sell the Moulin du Roy if you are interested. The first is Ken Bromley Art Supplies; more expensive than Jackson's but they also deliver in EU. I ordered from them in the past & they are reliable & give reward points. They sell the pads & the sheets. The other one, is called Silverprint. I never bought from them so I don't know but they also deliver in EU. I will also ask to my small local store. I am very grateful for all yr recommendations because really the supplies I purchase after watching yr videos are amazing. So thank you so much. I love Payne's grey colour, my 2 favourite brands are M.Graham & Qor but they're also expensive! You have the more beautiful artworks in a sketchbooks I have ever seen!! Great video, thank you Jane for sharing & yr generosity:)
Thanks very much Cristine, this will help some of the viewers surely.
haha, i also use some plates for starters, with egg holders that act like paint wells. Plus they are stackable!!!
Exactly! 😁
I love Flat Brush
I'm going to have to try the Canson Moulin du Roy. I really love the technique you use and how vibrant the colors are. I like to use pen and ink to line my work, so the smoother paper will work better for me. Thanks for the recommendation!
You should know, Prussian Blue isn't really lightfast. It has a weird reaction, we're it fades in the light but comes back if the work is put back in the shade for a while, but sometimes it doesn't. It's a chemical reaction. Prussian Blue is created by oxidation of ferrous ferrocyanide salts and the UV bleaches that. When you put it away, the iron can reoxidize itself, so the colors comes back, but it can take a long time, if it does happen. I really wish paint, and pigment manufacturers would be more forward about it. I switched it for PB60, which is a similar hue but gets darker and is totally lightfast. It's called Delft Blue in Schmincke paints. Indanthrone Blue and Indanthrene Blue for most paint manufacturers. I also find that Phthalo Blue Red Shade is very similar, though a little less dark.
Someone already shared this in the comments and thanks for writing about it to such extend, I find it helpful. I myself focus more on painting than different pigments research and so I rely on the info from manufacturer and this one is marked 4/5 lightfastness rating. Still, I would never display my artwork in a direct sunlight and advice my customers that and also frame with uv glass.
I totally understand. It shouldn't be on the artist to research pigment, and we should be able to just trusts the info of the manufacturers. Sadly most lightfastness tests are done on the masstone, or with acrylic paints. Thickly applied paints make paints more lightfast. An acrylic binder will refract light, which helps a lot for lightfastness too. Diluted paints can fade a lot more. Winsor & Newton seems to be the only watercolor manufacturer (that I know off) who notes the issue with prussian blue. Some paints maker don't test their paints at all and just copies the ASTM rating of the pigment. It's such a shame. I think Qor is the only brand that actually both test the masstone and the dilution of their paints.
Naphtol Reds and Antraquinone Reds ( PR170, PR177 ) are some of the other pigments that have a very high lightfastness ratings but is actually really fugitive diluted, which makes the mixes made with these paints also fugitive.
I haven't done my own tests yet, but many tests I looked pointed out that Prussian Blue fades in about 3 months, which is as fast as very fugitive paints like dyes, neons, opera's etc.
I'd highly recommend Kimberly's Crick website. www.kimcrick.com/pages/fugitive-pigments-list-lightfast-test-problems-art-supplies
She makes extensive lightfastness testing for every brands and have a huge pigment database. Her blog is very thorough and explains all of this better than I ever could. She also have a RUclips Channel. Handprint is also a good ressource, but it hasn't been updated in years and some info isn't accurate anymore.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...:( I hope this helps.
I always love seeing what supplies other watercolor artists are loving. I’m super excited, as the Strathmore 400 Sketchbook you love will be arriving today! I ordered it awhile ago and am even more excited to receive it after hearing your thoughts on it. I think it was the moleskin sketchbook that you had issues with tape pulling paper with it. If that bothers you, use a heatgun or even blow dryer to help release the adhesive from the tape and then as you pull it, it shouldn’t tear your paper. I really enjoyed your video and have to say just how much I adore the portrait you showed! You are obviously a wonderful artist. Thanks for sharing all of your favorites and blessings to you!!
Graphgear 500 0 5mm is the best drawing pencil. All the best famous artists use that. 600 model was a failure because of the grip,that users didnt like. Thats why its more difficult to find. LYRA makes the best kneadable and faber castell the best wooden pencils. Kohinoor 5340 and the kohinoor 5.6mm Red chalk sepia and geaphite,are the best sketching pencil out there. Raphael makes the best brushes.
I’m wanting to find some of that paper. It’s definitely harder to find in my area. That Daniel smith pyrol red was one of my first ever watercolor purchases too! It’s still one of my top favorite colors as well.
i love canson moulin du roy!! colours look so vibrant on that paper
the worst paper i’ve used was fabriano hot pressed, i think i got a faulty batch or something cos it made all my colours so muted and my DS paints look chalky…
So glad you enjoy it too :)
Thank you so much for these tips.. I know what you mean about Arches and sometimes even prefer the cheaper Canson Montval but I would not necessarily sell a piece on that. I am excited to try this kind.
I found out how different our preferences are. Yes it all depends on how you like to work there is no holy grail art supplies out there. I wanted to try Canson paper, I use XL all the time and I love Artist series too. Arches is my favorite paper so far.
Couldnt agree more with you, its helpful to know what you expect from your tools in order to pick the best ones - for you 🥸
I really love the etchr perfekt sketchbook. The Da vinci brushes. Especially the casaneo ones. And the schmincke Gouache and watercolors. Because here in germany you can get it nearly everywhere wherre you can buy art material.
I just received etchr sketchbook to review so I’m looking forward to that :)
I love your artwork!!! It's so captivating! ❤️😍
Hi Jane!! I used the awesome masking fluid you sent me while on Holiday and worked like a charm. Though I said I was going to paint flowers, I ended up painting Max from Stranger Things as I was hooked on Season 4. Also did a ton of drawing and can't wait to transfer some of them to water color paper (I bought some new stock to test) and see what happens. I hope you are having a great week so far!! Thanks for the video. I have a travel pack and made my own water color set based on some of the colors you've shown in recent videos. Always good to have an awesome artists recommendations!!!
So glad to have shared :)
If you heat the tape up just a little bit with a hairdryer it will be easier to remove and it won't tear the paper 🙂
Yeah I know the trick, still with the way I tape, paint on both sides of the paper and leaving the tape on for longer than I should, this cant be prevented all the time. But as I mentioned, it’s not a big deal. :)
Thank you for this video! Very helpful and informative
You are so welcome!
I like to try out different brands of watercolor paper and now I’m curious about the Canson Moulin du Roy paper. Interesting video, thank you!
Thanks for watching 🌞
Oh my goodness we have perfect timing! I just had my own mini art haul and I got the Canson Moulin du Roy from Jackson's too! I was wondering about it being discontinued but I've heard about it so much I just snapped it up when I saw it. I got their hot press but hope to try their cold press in the future too. It's wonderful seeing all the paintings you've made on it, they are each so gorgeous!
I really appreciate your insight on which brushes you use! I am still so early on in my watercolor journey I am still discovering what brushes I like and what brush shapes I actually use and like the most. I am a big fan of the snappy synthetic brushes but I just got my first Black Velvet Silver brush to try.
Also I had a similar experience where I found my favorite mechanical pencil and when I wanted to buy another found it was discontinued! So disappointing. At least you were able to snatch up a handful before they were gone... just wanted to say you do not sound crazy at all, it is totally normal in my book! 🙂
Thanks so much. I need to try the hot-pressed version too :)
@@WillowRoseArlen Glad to hear I'm not crazy haha!
So nice to watch videos by someone closer to my part of the world. That designer gouache is in my go to bag as well and I was actually wondering about the Schminke one which is available in one of our local stores instead of having to order online. So thanks for that info. I use the Kohi Noor pencil eraser instead of the Tombow, but I will try that one when the other one is finished.
Oh I like and regularly use the Kohinoor pencil eraser, its a little less practical than Tombow (having to sharpen it) but also very cheap and the eraser is soft. I highly recommend that one often, but its harder to find online for internation audience. I can buy it locally for about 1€
Pekne! Keby som bola na slovensku urcite by sme boli najlepsie kamosky mam radabrovnake veci a rovnaky styl malby. Tesim sa na dalsie videa
Great video!
Really interesting to hear about the Sennelier masking fluid, as i’ve only used the blue Schmincke masking fluid, which is just a pain to peel off.
One thing i would like to mention is that i believe all prussian blues (PB27) are somewhat fugitive and will fade over time, so i would suggest that you make your own lightfastness test of it :)
That being said, while its known to fade in sunlight, it’s also known to regain its color in shade, so while it sucks that it doesn’t have great lightfastness, i think it’s pretty cool never the less
Thank you Laura, I plan to make a lightfastness test of all my colors but I never have enough time to play with my collection quite as much as I'd like. And so I do what I think lots of others do to save time, rely on the info we are provided by the manufacturer and here it states rating 4/5, while Indigo only has 2/5. Such a shame, I love that color. So I sincerely hope this color won't behave in a way I wouldn't expect too much. I also advice customers never to hang an artwork to a place where there is direct sunlight in the room at any time of the day.
Thank you so much for sharing. I love watching these videos. For the mechanical pencil Pentel makes a graph Gear 1000 that is all metal and others. They too are my favourite ones because of the weight and they come in a .03 lead. I too have a deep attachment to my binder clips. I love the large swatches that you make. How do you store them? 💕
I hang them on my wall and the rest (that didn't fit) I just have in a box. But its best for me to pin together the swatch with the tube, this helps me with my workflow.
This is such a good video.. very interesting what you are using most. This paper question.. it was so interesting to hear. I couldn't find the perfect paper for me yet.. And the idea to just take a bit of the rubber and stuck it in your "to go" case is great 😅 ( easy, but my brain didn't find out it by itself... 😆) Its a good view into your process making art.. Thank you for sharing! Xoonani
Haha yeah, when you have to move a lot between studio and home, cuz I dont work from home studio, you’ll find hacks like that useful :)
Hi such a great video! So Im not sure if you know but Prussian Blue PB27 is not lightfast, Prussian Blue is a fugitive color, the lightfast ratings on the tubes are incorrect. Its hard to explain in a simple comment but their are several videos on RUclips discussing the fugitive nature of Prussian Blue. Also I live in Arizona, USA and did lightfast testing for all the major brand Prussian blues and all faded severely:(
Here are some videos that discuss Prussians blue being fugitive:
*1. Kimberly Crick Art: Daniel Smith watercolor lightfast test- most fugitive pigment list- Paint fading in 6 months
*2. Jay Nathan watercolor: Prussian Blue PB27 Watercolor Comparison
*3. Natasha Newton Art: watercolor lightfast tests 1 | Fading seen in Daniel Smiths Prussian Green within one week!
These are just a few videos thats discuss Prussian Blue, which is the pigment PB27, being fugitive; despite brands labeling the paint lightfast.
The best way to check if a paint you have is fugitive is to make a diluted swatch of the paint and cut it in half and hang one half in a window that gets direct sunlight and put the other half in a dark drawer that stays shut all the time. Then after a few months compare the 2 halves- if the diluted swatch in the window looks lighter or different than the swatch half that was put in the dark drawer then you know the paint is NOT lightfast.
Side note: Its important that the paint swatch you hang in the window is diluted with lots of water and not just a full strength masstone swatch because often times fugitive paints fade severely in diluted, watered-down washes; which most of us paint in layers of diluted paint. Tho some people do make two swatches: a masstone swatch and a diluted swatch to hang in the window...Anyway Im sorry for the unsolicited information- I just know that I wish someone had helped me with important info such as this before. You, of course, can still enjoy Prussian Blue in sketchbooks and pieces that wont be exposed to light since its such a beautiful color, ya no..Anyway I hope this helps and Im so sorry about the super long comment and the unsolicited information lol...Anyway I love your video, thank you so much for sharing and much love💙💜🧡❤
Already got 2-3 comments about that, many thanks for explaining in depth. I am always pondering if my time spent by doing paint tests is a good investment, I barely have 3 hours a day to paint now with my baby and I really can't quite come in terms of putting the pigment properties research before the actual painting right now, so I rely on the info I get from a manufacturer. But I'll think about doing tests of all the colors I have in the future maybe. I still don't think any of my collectors would hang my watercolor in a direct sunlight. They all know better.
If you are in UK. The Chanson is available. On UK amazon
Oh thanks, still I wanted to know if there were an outside of uk option, I didnt find any.
Fun fact in the green plate has a face ahuahuahua 😅!!! i'm confusing you and Anca when you said Slovakia I thought you will say romenia , I like to follow people from other countries, I'm from Brasil . I have the same mechanical pencil that you have in white, pastel green and orange , I would like to have the dark blue one, my favorite is the orange.
Pentel discontinued them, I have a similar model that change the top click led and body color but the grip is the same, after the video I google and find this other model in 0,3; 0,5; 07 and the graph600 in 0,7 in dark blue. If you want I can buy and send to you and you pay the mechanical pencil and shipping, where I can show you the other model to see if you like is the graph 620?
Do you have an advice to us begginer that try learn watercolor alone in celulose paper how to understand better paint consistence and dry time , when I think I start to understand I make mistakes, watercolor is hard 😭!!!!
Good weekend!!!
I just looked it up(I live in Germany)you can get the Moulin du Roy- watercolor paper on amazon here 😊 👍🏻 oh and btw,your artwork is stunning😍
Thank youu 🌞
For Sketchbooks, I adore Sketchr and cannot recommend them enough. The pages hold the water really well and the design is well thought-out. I was disappointed by the Moleskin sketchbooks when I tried them after hearing so much about them as they pale in comparison to the Sketchr books in my opinion.
Never heard of those, thanks for the tip :)
Did you mean Etchr ? I can't find the one you recommend
@@loati94 You are correct! Apologies for my typo!
Magnifique 🤩
❤️
I like your brush/pencil roll/case. Do you have a link for it and a name for it? Where did you get it? Thanks!
It is by Koh-i-noor and I bought it locally for 6,50 eur. I found it on Amazon for a RIDICULOUS pride of 39 Eur amzn.to/3P4FNGa please dont buy it :) I can't link this to my followers with clear conscience. Find something similar either on Amazon or even better - in a local art supply store or local e-shop.
Great video of your art supply, I orderd Canson Moulin Du Roy from Jacksons aswell about a week ago.
I have question regarding how you keep your paintings flat. Do stretch your paper before you start painting or flatten them after?
Hello Albion, with smaller studies I just use masking tape, you can see in almost every video. For larger works, I stretch paper to a wooden frame, I talked about the process in the video about large watercolor artwork, linked in description if you wanna see that process.
Whic Pro Arte brush is it? Connoisseur One Stroke? Or ? And which size?
I love moulin du roy but couldn’t find it in my country for more than a year. Last one I managed to buy was faulty with bad sizing. Is the one Jackson sells same one that you used before? How’s the quality compared to previous one?
Several of you already asked but I cant really tell, it was two years between I used old and new version but I also wasnt using it so much before, my technique evolved a bit since. With that said, I cannot answer this question with 100% competency. However I totally clicked with the old version which is why I was rigorously searching for it for 2 years. And the new version lived up to the expectations.
This is so helpful! Love the brush case. I have one now I don't like at all. If you have a link to where I could get one like yours I would be grateful!! Moulin du Roi paper is definitely on my must get list. It will be the next paper I try (when I finish with my Fabriano). Even with shipping cost from UK to Canada it is affordable so excited about that :). Your recommendations have never let me down! Curious to know what you think of Dr PH Martin Bleed Proof White? I personally love it!
Never tried that ink or that brand, it was too hard to get when I was searching for it while back, and than I forgot about it :D I will never try everything that I want to try, there are so many brands and so many choices, new appear every year so when I find something that work AND I can find locally at the same time (those smaller shops need support), I stick with it for years :)
@@JaneBeata That makes total sense. It's easy to fall in a supplies rabbit hole. Luckily finances does not allow or I might be in trouble LOL. I am so fortunate to have. a really good local shop where I can get 800% of what I need and Jackson's is great for the rest. Especially when they have sales. Dr. Ph Martin is available at Jackson for about 11 Euros. I love how it moves and flows in water. It creates nice effects. Works great for highlights too.
@@MsMoniqueWilson I will get it next time I am ordering Monique, since you recommend it ❤️
@@JaneBeata I hope you love it. ♥
@@MsMoniqueWilson I’ll sure mention it in a video :)
Hey. I don’t know how to send a personal message so just putting it here. I love your art and your videos. The subtitles have mistakes though. A non native English speaker may have trouble following along just by reading. Not intending to put you down. But thought I should let you know.
Thanks for letting me know, I do realize that auto subtitles make mistakes but I am without resources to fix them at the moment. Sorry that my channel isnt right now the highest quality but in a year maybe things will be able to run more smoothly.
You don’t have to apologise girl. With a small child myself I understand how busy things can get. You are doing enough. I just thought I should let you know as a possible angle of improvisation.
Hey Jane! Good 👍 video. Can you do me a quickie favor and link me to the Moulin du Roy A4 bloc at Jackson's. I have the pad in my cart to take out separate sheets, but I want the bloc and am confused on the website which is which. If you go to Jackson's it clearly states blocs for the Hot Press, but then for cold Press it says Gummed which I think is it. Is it? I'm asking bc you said you purchased a block. So do a girl a favor and direct link it here so I'm not confused anymore. I don't want to make a mistake and get the wrong thing and have to return it. I have the Strathmore and it does work pretty good, lays flat, handles watercolors well. I purchased the exact Koval book you got bc my etchrs sometime come undone after painting a lot in them - it's a design flaw. It handled your expressive work well, so I took the plunge. Now just waiting patiently for it to arrive from Poland I think to US 🇺🇸. Thanks -Jessica

Hope those papers serve you well :)
@@JaneBeata is this the block? Like gummed all 4 sides? That's what I want. This looks like the pad you pull out paper from. Help? This is the only time I've had trouble figuring out which is which on Jacksons
@@jessicameisner8487 oh I'm linking you what I'm using, this is not gummed, I tape it down using masking fluid. I linked gummed in the description so I assumed you didnt want those. But it is not super clear either way, maybe you can reach out to Jacksons to clarify.
Hiiiiii ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Moulin du roy, like anything canson remakes is now the same price with way less quantity of pages. They did the same with the Mi teintes paper for pastels and I'm sure they did it with more pads that I don't know about. I really dislike that tactic.
I cannot see into the manufacturing process and how the cost of making the paper might have also changed but I am looking at my latest invoice and I payed less than 10€ per 10 sheets of moulin du roy A4 sized. This is a very quality cotton paper and Arches at this size with 12 sheets costs 25€ in here. I dont see this as unfair price at all, quite the opposite.
@@JaneBeata We don't have the same prices. For me a pad of moulin du roy costs 20€ which is the same as arches. And it came with 20 sheets before but now they come with 12.
@@JaneBeata I am glad that it's cheap for you though, I consider you quite lucky to be able to buy 10 sheets of good quality cotton paper for such affordable price!
@@loati94 is it different for you? I have it shipped from Jacksons to Slovakia as its not sold locally.
@@JaneBeata I can buy it locally so maybe thats why its more expensive. I dont know about uk prices or marketing choices but here in Spain they did reduce the number of sheets for the same price as before. Canson mi teines also used to be 12€ for 30 sheets and now they sell it for 12€ for 20 sheets
I use doms supplies
