  • Hello friends!
    I’m Elisabetta, an Italian watercolor artist with a passion and a curiosity for art supplies and pigments.
    Today we are swatching and reviewing a very lovely niche watercolor paint by Isaro, an artisanal brand based in Belgium.
    To make a long story short, I really enjoyed swatching this high quality paint! Will you let me know what you think about it?
    I will also try a quick sketch, to better understand how these colors behave in a realistic environment.

    Í’ve been using Isaro watercolors for 2 years and I agree with your findings. The colors are smooth and vivid at the same time, no pb with binding, rewet easily, doesn’t fuse too much. I was very happy to see colors that I don’t own. Yellow ochre is beautiful, quite transparent and non granulating, very nice for skies. Also cobalt blue and indanthrene blue are interesting. I suggest also Brun Van Dijck which is made from bk11 and pr101, and mixes beautifully with magenta. Chartreuse yellow is a particularly interesting green gold (py129). Magenta is excellent for mixes. And last, if you like perlescent colors, try Boreal blue, it is just amazing. I also have pyrole orange, turquoise ( great mix of phtalos), phtalo blue green shade, all are great. Isaro is the contraction of Isabelle Roeloffs, she has a nice website where you can order colors for a decent price.

    I love that you show the product in use in a painting . No better way to see how the products preforms than that. Thank you.
    I've seen this brand searched countless times by countless youtubers and never once have the swatches made this brand appealed to me. Seeing them in use however, seeing how they react with one another puts this product in a whole new perspective. They have a little more personality than swatching shows. Thank you.
    Still sticking with Daniel smith though.

    I know nothing about this brand but it seems interesting. About PR264, it is a pigment that I love, so I have it from several brands. Daniel Smith's is my favorite, even stronger than Smincke's. Rosso rubino, from Gallo, is a darker color, very special, with a curious undertone when diluted. Again, thank you for your videos😊

    I love "out of sight out of mind"! I need to pour my tubes into pans!! I'd stopped using cadmiums many years ago when I painted mostly in oils. I never missed it. I don't use cadmiums in watercolor either as disposal must be taken to hazardous waste facility. Even if I am not eating them ;-) I would not want any sentient being to eat/be exposed to them either. Sending you lots of love! xo PS New book i am reading by Annie Lyons "The Air Raid Book Shop" sweet book.

      @michelemarchesani5139 10 месяцев назад

      I'm afraid so. There are many articles online about how to let the paint settle to the bottom of your jar for a couple of days, pour off the clean water, then wipe out the sediment and throw in your waste bin. As far as cadmiums I think the sediment needs to be placed in hazardous waste. I am sorry to be a negative nellie and did not mean to scare you, maybe just something to think about. There may well be opposing opinions among all your friends here. xo @@WatercolorElisabetta

    I watched it last night but realized my post did not published. Isauro has beautiful colors, did not knew them. I’m not a big fan of opaque reds and yellows unless they are moody and granulating, otherwise I would probably have more than 2 cadmium’s. I’m more into cobalts for some reason. Cobalt teal light by Windsor and newton is my first and only rebuy of a same color so far. Because I have not finished any other. My second rebuy will be Permanent rose by Windsor and Newton because that one is almost over. I just can’t afford it now, I’m waiting for the end of the year.

    • @WatercolorElisabetta

They look like lovely paints and I’d love to try a small selection at some point, but I’m not in a rush.

    I have some colors from Isaro, rose is very pretty, Satine is very dark full strength like Indigo. I agree with you Stardust is very pretty; the sparkle is so fine, which I really like. Powdery pink is interesting, a muted pink but lovely as well. I was very limited to what I could order, many were out of stock. I was also able to order white, beige titanium and Isaro green light. I would be interested in more colors in the future.

    Even if you did eat cadmium paint it wouldn't and cannot hurt you. There is more heavy metals in baby food. The human liver cares enzymes which isolate and remove heavy metals from the body. In order to ingest enough cadmium a human would have to eat gallons of cadmium paint which is humanly impossible. They'd puke before they could ingest it. So I agree with you 100%. Using cadmium paints is 100% safe.
