Welcome to a very relaxing and chatty 50-minute swatching session where I try the new watercolours from the March Art Haul for the first time, and chat to you about something that I and other RUclips creators are experiencing at the moment; dealing with a surge in online hate and negativity.
Aww Natasha i’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing online hate/negativity this makes my blood boil why can’t people just be nice if they haven’t got anything nice to say or something they don’t agree with why comment or just simply not watch. You are only showing your supplies and how you use them in your art. I think some just like to make drama and its just not nice, i think this culture of hate has to stop.
I read a youtube comment one time that gave me an epiphany about art supplies. It said, "I've realized that buying art supplies and making art are actually two different hobbies". Since reading that comment I never felt guilty again! 😀 Not that I'm advocating hoarding supplies without using them, but rather appreciating that colours and pigments and textures can be a joy in and of themselves, separate from their use in a painting.
This is a fantastic way of looking at it! Thank you, Leslie.
I will admit, I spend more time organizing my things than using my things. I could mix and swatch colors all day long. I need to frame all of my swatch sheets and start referring to myself as an "abstract artist" ... Do you think anyone will buy it? Natasha could probably sell her pebble swatch pages.
I think it’s really cool you have so many art supplies. And even cooler that you share the swatching - that’s something you don’t have to do. I get to sort of experience the different colors through your swatching without purchasing them myself, and it’s really fun. Your husband is exactly right with his analogy of a carpenter and supplies. I work at a hospital, and nobody ever says anything about the number of syringes or gauze packs we have. If anything, people are thankful we have such an abundance - how else could we provide patient care? Artists are in limited supply (if art was easy, everyone would be an artist!), and people who appreciate artists are thankful that artists have a variety of materials to express themselves and share their talents.
Thank you, Erika. This is such a thoughtful response and I appreciate it. ♡
😊🤗💟
That was a awesome thing to say thank you for being a nurse,vivwas a nurse for a littke under 6 years before it burnedvme out i wen back for a different degree...thank you for your choice in the medical field...🏥💛😷🤒🤕
Hear, hear! Well said!
so true!
It’s actually very useful for us that you have so many supplies as it gives us ideas on how to use different materials, what we might like to buy ourselves!
Thanks Laura Jane!
I totally agree! We are fortunate that people like Natasha willingly shares all her supplies with us & I for one ~ really enjoy her swatching them out for us! 🎨🖌️🎨🖌️🎨🖌️
Natasha, of COURSE you should buy more watercolors!😊😍
You're an enabler, Brenda! ;) x
"Natasha, please don't buy any more watercolors." would not be my advice. ;-) Nice swatches. Sorry about the haters. Some people just want to steal joy wherever they find it.
Thanks Carol! ♡
Be you and keep buying supplies so that we can all learn and explore through you 😊 I personally believe these trolls are unhappy people. Hurting others gives them power which is very sad.
The colors are beautiful. 🌸
Thanks Bobbi ♡ They must be unhappy because happy people don't feel the need to attack people on the internet that they don't even know for no good reason.
I love watching your channel and videos but I NEED you to do an audiobook, because your voice is the most relaxing and soothing voice ever and it would be perfect 🤩
Thank you, Marya! People keep saying I should do voiceover work, and I actually quite like the idea of it! I wonder how I go about it? I'm so glad that you love the videos, thank you for watching! ♡
@@NatashaNewtonArt i’m not really familiar with it, but if you want to make a 3 hour video, i am more than fine with watching it 😂🤩 probably a quick look around on google can help, like agencies or freelance?
Yes totally agree!
Could be my thought written down. Same feeling here.
Lol! I was tempted to suggest the same! Natasha’s voice lowers my b/p ❤
Natasha you are an amazing artist. The joy suckers have a job and it is to kill joy. Please don't let them kill the joy of this channel.
I’m sorry you have to deal with those kinds of comments, you’re dealing with it admirably. I like what Peter Monn said whenever someone criticized how he handled his channel. “Is your name on this channel? No.”
I love that response!
So sorry to hear about the negative comments Natasha 😢 You’re one of my fave RUclipsrs and I always love how genuine, kind, passionate and creative you are in your videos. You’ve worked so hard to be where you are today and have every right to own as many art supplies as you like - you’re a professional artist! It would be weird if you didn’t have a collection of art supplies 🙈 Sending love and hugs!💖 xx
Thanks Joanna, that's really lovely! I really enjoy watching your channel too. :) For the first time in my life I can afford to experiment a bit more with art supplies (I was always on a pretty tight budget before, and even now I'll sometimes choose to go without other things so that I can buy art supplies!), and for some reason this triggers certain people. I don't know why, as I don't go around judging and policing other artists! It's strange behaviour, and that's only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the comments that I and other RUclipsrs are receiving. I'm glad that people are starting to talk about it openly. Anyway, have a lovely week and thank you! xxx
I’m major in landscape architecture and most of the software in this industry is so much more expensive than a set of art supplies! And yet you would never accuse an architect for how many working software they have on their computer, don’t even mention how much it costs to have a well operating computer! Then why would someone accuse professional artists for their art supplies?! This makes no sense at all. I wish these kind comments in this video can make you feel a little better. We’re definitely with you. Maybe those who leave hate comments are just jealous. I think that’s very possible!
Hi Natasha please don't listen to negativity rember how much joy and peace you are bringing to a many people. A lot of us may not be able to afford a lot of art supplies so we can watch you and enjoy them through you. Love you calm voice . Thank you for inspiring me to get out my art supplies and start swatching xx
Aw! So cool to hear Dominick's voice! I'm glad you're setting boundaries regarding rude people's comments-it will help your sanity in the long run. Like you, I accept criticism on my blog if it's warranted, but you as the creator get the final say on what is constructive and what is time wasting grumbling from people who are directing their hurt/self-loathing at the wrong people. The anonymous nature of the internet has given people license to be more scathing and unhelpful, unfortunately.
I can’t bring myself to say, “Natasha, please don’t buy any more watercolors” because I love your color choices too much! Thank you for another lovely, relaxing video. And regarding those hateful, annoying trolls…block them all. Life is too short and precious to waste time on them. It must be a horrible existence to be so negative. No one needs it. You’re fabulous!
Thank you so much, Jill! I hope you're keeping well. :)
You can tell you are into it because your voice softens and your speech slows! Just lovely
What ever happened to “if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything?” People can be so crass and rude nowadays. As if they are entitled to be!! Love your color choices. I have something similar to that first grey in a Roman Szmal watercolor. Can’t remember the name of it off hand. I do love buying from Jacksons even though I’m in the US. They actually ship quicker than some of the local art shops.
What surprises me is that given what we've all been through over the past two years, you would think that people would be kinder to each other, but I've noticed that the opposite is true. On another note, that's good to hear about Jackson's!
Thank goodness for Jacksons... I live in Australia...I try to buy local but Jackson have such a great variety of goodies and as you say, postage is great!
My dearest Natasha....if you didn't have so many supplies how would you be able to show us anything? I find your content seriously invaluable because you're saving me from wasting my money on something I know I wouldn't like or enjoy working with. I don't have a lot of money to spend on supplies and I do my research and read reviews and watch swatching on youtube to be sure that's the color or product I really want. Your content helps so many of us and I hope you will keep being you and keep doing your amazing videos. My favorite green is daniel smith serpentine genuine. It has lovely granulation and seperates pigments so nicely. I can't live without undersea green as well. We truly love you Natasha! ❤️
All your, and other artists swatching and product videos have helped me find materials to help me develop my artistry and understand how they work, how to use them and tricks to help me improve, so you’re all helping me in so many ways and answering questions I didn’t know I needed answering or wouldn’t know how to ask, so if you see this I just want to say thank you, your efforts are appreciated xx
This is lovely to hear, thank you! ♡
I watch a lot of swatching videos, yours are my favourite by far, you have a soft demeanour and a unique way of presenting colors and materials, I've made several paint purchases based on your swatches. Never stop please and ignore the little minds that want to bring you down.
Hi Natasha, try the Undersea Green wet on wet and just let it do it's thing. I love what happens when I add it to a deamp to wet-ish surface and then just leave it, not touch it anymore. It's so much fun when you come back and see what it did, it's different every time. 🤩
Ooh, I need to try this!
Love your swatching sessions. I like to see the paint ideas.
Block the trolls❣️ Seems like there’s a lot of negativity out there, in all areas of life.
Funnily enough, I just got undersea green last week! I wasn't too sure how I felt about it when I swatched it out, but using it in a piece - oh! It's truly stunning. My favourite green's probably Schminke's May Green - such a fresh colour! Though undersea green is right up there for me now. Watched to the end, but can not in good conscience tell you not to buy more watercolours - you should buy as many as your heart desires!
I love hearing about the colours other people love, thanks Anna!
I love the way you speak about watercolors.....not wanting to hurt their feelings. It's natural to feel that way when you love colors sooooo much.
Ha! I made it to the end and I am supposed to say “please don’t buy more watercolors, Natasha,” but…. I really want you to buy more watercolor supplies. :-)
Ha ha! x
I’m so glad you buy lots of art supplies so we can all get to see the art haul! That’s the reason I first started watching your channel, I stayed because I like everything. 😊👍🏻❤️💖
Thank you, Debbie! x
Wow, they weren't kidding! That Daniel Smith Undersea Green is INCREDIBLE
what a stunning colour - Undersea Green is a colour I bought some time ago but have never really used it for my work (not sure how with botanicals!) - but it is amazing and thank you xxxxx
I cannot believe how gorgeous it is! The camera doesn't show its full beauty. xx
@@NatashaNewtonArt I’m already on Jackson’s website buying Cascade green. I blame you 😂
Miserable, unhappy people love spreading misery and negativity everywhere they go. This way they can make other people as miserable, unhappy as they are. I am older and in my generation I was taught by my nana “if you are not going to say anything nice, then you don’t say anything at all.” I love your channel and all of your videos.
Dear trolls. I hope you all step on staples and your paints all dry up and you can't use them! Oh and choke on the paint bristles too! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Natashaaaaa please BUY more watercolours muahahahaha
Natasha, please keep sharing your beautiful watercolour collection, as I live vicariously through your generosity 😊
My own 'collection' consists of one set of White Nights w/colours (which I love!) & a tiny W&N Cotman travel set, so I find your haul/swatching videos to be both breathtaking & incredibly inspiring! Thank you 😊
Natasha, "Do not buy more watercolours. Not." Your swatch in the shape of beautifully coloured pebbles is art in itself. I admire your Patreon card in the bold, contemporary design, with the detailed use of the fine white lines and chimney smoke. Your presentations are a 100% joy to view. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Patty-Natasha, stop buying paints. No, seriously, don't stop unless you want to. I love watching you watching you swatch and sharing your experiences with the supplies. I'm learning so much . 💕
Hi there! I want to send you love and support! I love your channel!
Also, I don’t have a favorite green, but my favorite kind of greens are the ones that go super dark but can be like a super bright mossy/yellow with water added 😍
Thank you, I really appreciate that Kyra. ♡ And I know just the kind of gorgeous green you mean!
Natasha as always your videos are outstanding. I love your swatching and your discussion regarding how you might use the colors. You swatched many of my favorite colors in this video. I absolutely love Blue Appetite Genuine, Undersea Green, Ocean Blue, and Holbein’s Shadow Green. Another couple of favorite greens are QoR Sap Green- it’s more olive-y, and MariBlue Terre Vert. I made it to the end and I fully support buying any supplies that bring you joy!
I've just now seen this relatively older post (I am a newer follower so I have lots to go through). I really appreciate your purchases and the way you swatch and share with us. I am also new to watercolors so I have so much to learn about the paints. It's very different from acrylics, which is what I normally do. You've taught me much so far, and you've saved me a ton of money because I don't have to do all the experimenting myself. My acrylic paintings are focused on the interplay of light and shadow, so my palette is very different and extremely limited because I do my own mixing. I've really come to appreciate the muted colors you use and the pop of color you include. They are perfect for the nocturns I love to do. As for the trolls, I think they must be miserable people who are too cowardly to tell the people in their real lives how unhappy they are. They use the internet to strike out without any repercussions, which is something they can't do in real life.
Definitely buy more watercolors :)
Regarding your addressing of "Trolls" on RUclips, know that anyone who lashes out at someone without cause is usually compensating for a deficit within their own lives and personality. You do you, I love listening to you ramble on, paint and swatch. Keep up the good work :)
I follow all sorts of channels, art, wood turning, polymer clay, adult coloring, and yes even tarot readers. All experience attacks. It is difficult to ignore. Keep doing what you’re doing. Say things as you say them. Buy what you want to. Any financial questions about how they’re afforded is none of our business. I do believe some accounts are created just to spread discord. How sad is that! One truth is: their negativity is a reflection of their lives…not yours. I don’t even paint (I do adult coloring, when I make time for it), but I absolutely love your videos. Never stop being you!
Can you remind me where you got these gorgeous brushes? I remember you doing a review or just unboxing when you got them but for some reason am struggling to find the right video! They are so beautiful and I admire them in all of your swatching videos. Thank you for addressing the trolls, I had my first truly hateful/mean comment yesterday and just deleted it. I don't think it has any place on my channel, which is all about mutual support for artists having FUN with their art. No room for anyone to bring it down! Love you as always great video!!
You did the right thing with the negative comment (I'm so sorry that you received your first one though - it's a bit of a shock when the first one comes through). I think all of us artists who just want to inspire and have fun with art should band together and have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to these energy vampires. Sending love to you! ♡ Oh yes, and the Betty Hayways brushes came from the Chelsea Paper Company. I love them and use them all the time!
I went and got them and I must say, I will never tell you to stop buying watercolor paint!!
Maggie, when I watched this video I was thinking about you, what Natasha described reminded me a lot of that „person“ on your channel. A mean person with „Bee“ in her name also made a mean comment on my video a while ago, but now it is gone and seems like the account got deleted. The bee person I saw in your comments has a very fresh new account (coincidence 😜?) and I also saw them spreading negativitiy on a few other art channels. It‘s best to just ignore and delete, some people feed on upsetting and having any impact on someone else, if you don’t react at all it confuses them and eventually they will stop because nobody is playing their game. It‘s hard not to react especially when they hit a weak spot but it really is the best thing to do. More time for some art fun!!
@Moni DMajor that is exactly what I was wondering! She did have a different name before and was saying awful things about poor sweet Sandi Hester, one of my favorites. I'm glad we can all just write this person off because you're right, this is all about the person and not us if she is spreading negativity to a bunch of channels I love so much. I'm so sorry she targeted you, too, I'm glad you took the comment down!! Definitely time for more art fun!! 🤗😆🙌🤩😎
@Creating Cute Art - Well, look... you may have lost a troll, boohoooo.... but you also gained me as a new subscriber, yayyyyy! 😂😂😂
Natasha please buy all of the watercolors you desire 😉😉😉 and please continue to create beautiful art. 💐
Natasha, please DO buy more watercolors!💛💙😍 The Glacier black looked like a slate plaque to me, so gorgeous!
I love the colors n yes the swatching is so calming 😍
Once again, a lovely video with so many of the colors I love. I get so much joy from your cozy and charming videos that there is no way I would tell you to stop buying more of anything!😘 That painting with the red colors is beautiful and I like that you pushed yourself to do something a bit different. As far as the trolls go, haters gonna hate. There is nothing you can do about it, but you can make the choice not to participate in it or give the haters any power. Their venom is aimed at you, but it isn’t really about you, so do what you have been doing - shut the comment door in their faces and then bask in the joy of your art and your art community who love you and value your work. Big hug😘💕
Natasha, please don’t stop buying watercolors. You have become the voice in my head when I swatch new watercolors, which is a bit strange since I’m American, not British. Your swatching videos have made me realize for the first time that I love muted and moody colors.
Ha ha, I love that!
You and your channel are such a positive presence on RUclips (as are most of ArtTubers I have watched). I'm so sorry that you have to deal with anyone who is trying to bring you down.
It's really difficult not to feed those energy creatures who try to insult you into responding to them, but blocking and reporting without engaging is definitely the way forward. Hopefully knowing that there are far more of us art nerds out there who appreciate what you're doing than there are sad, lonely, angry-at-the-world people who lash out with unwarranted spite helps, too.
Love the way you doing swatch! Please do buy more watercolours and show us more 😘
Since I’ve found your channel and Sandy Hester’s channel I’ve definitely branched out of my monochrome ways.
Now my days have been filled with full blown colours and I’ve been trying out art supplies I never knew existed. I’ll always cheer you on and all of your art adventures! 🥳
Natasha, Sarah Burns, Oto Kano, and Sandi Hester are my Quadrangle of Happy!
That's brilliant!
I don’t know why, but I just love your swatching sessions. It’s relaxing to watch and you choose beautiful colors. I swatch my colors in a pebble shape now too! Very enjoyable to do. 😃👍
This was really lovely to watch, the colours are stunning and I love how they all reacted so differently with the water and as the dried. The Daniel Smith Undersea Green, made a yummy looking avocado on the paper. Thank you for sharing this, I really enjoyed it!
So relaxing. These greens are gorgeous.
So many gorgeous greens to choose from these days!
I will never tell anyone to stop buying more watercolors lol. I love them!!
Natasha, please DO buy more watercolours, because we like your swatches so much! BTW, this little red landscape is absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much, Silke!
Hi Natasha please buy more yes more watercolors. I love watching you swatching . Unfortunately some people are hateful and negative I feel sorry for them since they must be like that what ever they do . I can’t imagine living without joy and you are one of our joys in life thank you. 💕Annie
The red painting is so gorgeous. Loved it so much. Also all colors shown in video are beautiful. Watching your videos does makes drool for colors 😍 could never have enough of colors
Thank you very much!
It's lovely how you've done the colour swatch chart, it's a work of art itself, would look lovely on the wall of your studio.
I am on an art supply buying ban for a month, but watching you I feel that overwhelming pull to just go and check out the colours and brand that you are swatching....damn the beauty of a amazing art haul!
Firstly, how is it harming anyone if you are buying more supplies? I think it’s either jealousy or people who are unhappy in their own lives.
I appreciate your swatching and comments. You are very relaxing and positive which I love💕 keep going and happy swatching, buying, painting loving life😉
Your videos serve multiple purposes for me. LOVE seeing the swatches and your reactions to them but ALSO I often play your vids in the background while im doing housework, because they have a really calming effect on my 4 month old puppy and he settles down when im out of the room if I leave your voice on. ❤
Oh my goodness, this is adorable!
❤ Those are gorgeous colors. And I'm definitely someone who is going to swatch in pebbles too. It's so soothing!!
I love doing it this way! It's much more fun.
Natasha, please do buy as many watercolours as your heart desires. You deserve them and they are the tools of your trade. Also we love all your art hauls! Also more Dominic 🤩🧑⚖
I always loveee your videos!!! Thankyou for sharing and I think you are amazing 🤩
Thank you so much!
Wonderful two part video this weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment and will rewatch while I work on my own pieces. I always first watch them from beginning to end and then rewatch them to keep me company when I work 😊 Have a great week! Red looks awesome too ❤️
That's so lovely. Thanks Josyan! x
Dear Natasha, I have learnt so much from your fantastic videos, thank you! I appreciate very much you giving your time and effort in doing those . You are really talented artist and
lovely person. Please, do not mind those poor malevolent souls, they only give what they have.
Thank you so much, Marjatta! x
I think it's marvelous that your swatches looked like REAL pebbles you can find on the beach! The colors were stunning and so natural looking! lol... I can't bring myself to tell you to stop buying new water colors!
Ah, thank you!
Who knew a perylene violet sky could be so gorgeous!!
I love it here,thankyou. And Natasha keep buying more watercolors! Lol love them.
Thank you, it's lovely to have you here!
21:40 You 2 sound absolutely beautiful together... Bless your hearts... He must be so proud of you!
Aw, thanks Laura!
i love your videos, i like when you swatch your supplies, i loved all the colours you swatched especially the greens they were beautiful. I like the granulating watercolours they give such lovely effects. Never let the negativity of others get you down you are an amazing artist and love your youtube videos and patreon. 💕
Thank you, Louise. xxx
I'm so sorry to hear about these people who live to be nasty bullies and spread their ugly darkness to others. Remember, these people are miserable and can only share what lies within their souls. Sounds like you are doing the right thing to block them. You are such a bright light in this world. I thank you for sharing your love of art with all of us. Stay strong and remember...why should we care about the opinions of these sorry souls. They in no way define who you are. Keep your light shining bright dear one. 💫You are part of the Greater Light of this World.🌎 Blessings to you💖
Thankyou for your videos. I've been in a bad car accident. And am relearning to do....well everything. I'm switching a watercolor set while listening to you. I'm excited that I was able to hold the brush and make my pebbles. I hope the bad Comments don't prevent you continuing. Thankyou. You've really helped me to restart doing art.
I'm so sorry to hear about your accident. Wishing you all the best and a good recovery.
i'm so sorry about the haters, me personally as a full time artist i really enjoy ur videos, and keep going!! Sending so much love!!
Thank you so much!
I can't thank you enough for swatching and sharing your thoughts with your supplies....even more excited that Jackson's has a Schminke sale going on and I was able to use your link to buy. Thank you for sharing that you also get 10% off first orders so it was a stellar deal! I bought several full/half pans of colors you used in the past when swatching and can't wait to experiment with them, especially Roman Szmal Ocean Blue! Then lots and lots of the super granulation sets because it was the best price I've ever seen on them so thank you for enabling😂🤩
Thank you for using the link, and enjoy your new supplies! :)
I enjoy being able to come here and turn an idea over, not to be wrong or right, simply ponder, consider. It’s a special place for that, and I enjoy it, thank you.
Favorite green, aqua?
Natasha, please keep buying art supplies, seeing your technique is so enjoyable and informative. The swatching is mesmerizing, and I love to see the colours in use. I also think you've given me "permission" to play with my paints, rather than having to turn out a "painting". 👋
This is lovely to hear. Thank you so much! x
I love your videos and your dramatic, moody colors. I have a very limited color palette and whenever I am able to get another color to add to my collection, I look to swatching videos for help in choosing what to get. But I also find your videos not just relaxing and welcoming but also inspiring - when I have art block or want to paint but don't know what to make this is one of my go-to channels to get the creativity flowing.
This is so lovely to hear, thank you! I really appreciate your comment. :)
Please don't hesitate to buy more watercolors 😉😊Thank you for this video. Loved it as usual and followed it all to the end.
I love listening to you while you swatch. Very nice insight into colors I may not have chosen. My favorites right now are Schminke Glacier Green, Schminke Shire Olive and Roman Szmal Aquarius Green.
You have good colour taste, Catherine!
So sorry to hear about the hateful comments. you do not deserve that. Just remember you are educating us all and sharing your knowledge with us and you are very talented. People like that are sad and jealous.
Hi Natasha ... I can't tell you not to buy any more watercolors because you might find some new ones you want. Thank you for sharing all of these watercolors with us. 😊
Thank you Natasha for sharing your always very lovely art work and swatching !!! I really enjoy listening and watching all that you do !!! You have totally encouraged me to start painting again !! I too have the LOVE of buying art supplies, in fact I have bought many new things that you have swatched. So sorry, to hear that their some rude people out there…you have every right to ignore, delete those type of people!!!! Love, Love your work and look forward to watching more videos. Oh my favorite green is Daniel Smith Green Gold with the Undersea Green running 2nd !!! Keep up the great work !!! Cheers from Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada!!! P.S. I love the long swatches 🥰 😜
I do not understand why people have to be like that. I love watching people do swatches. It's how I find new colors I would use & the ones I don't like. Your swatches are exceptionally beautiful to watch. Big plus for me-I find them very soothing. The softness and cadence of your voice calm. Throw in the gorgeous swatches and it's a huge win-win here.
ignore all haters. they are jealous. we love that you try new things so we ca pick out what we love and "need" in our stashes. Thanks
Thank you, I'm so glad that you enjoy the videos. :)
Natasha I just want to say I appreciate you sharing your swatches so much! We do have a similar aesthetic but there are also so many colors (and different products!) I would have never considered but I’ve happily discovered thanks to you. And I love that you take your viewers suggestions and share those colors/ items too. It’s a lovely collaboration and every thing good that a RUclips channel can be. So I agree with Dominic’s analogy and would add that I hope those few petty people won’t discourage future expressions of creative joy you’ve been sharing with us. I mean isn’t art at it’s core about love, expression and connecting? I think it is, so sharing your discoveries is just a lovely expression of that sentiment. So Natasha please DO NOT stop buying more watercolors:) Or any other supplies your unique creative eye is inspired by. Also thank you for the transparency, dealing with unwarranted negativity is never easy. Your channel is one that I truly look forward to, not just because of the supplies but because of you, so please know that you and the effort you put forth in your work and this channel are loved.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jen. x
I really enjoyed this session!
Natasha, what is this paper you swatched on here? The paints are GORGEOUS on this paper. Green IS my favorite color and it is difficult to pick my most favorite. I love your channel and work❤️
I love Undersea Green but I adore Cascade Green! I like to use it as a backgroung color because the blue separates out against the outline of the subject.
I’m new to your channel and a fellow (hobby) artist and I dearly love watching art haul unboxing because I can live vicariously through you and dream of trying some of what looks interesting to me. It’s also how I learn of new products out on the market and how they look in real use. I have lots of certain art supplies that I’m not currently able to use and some I don’t have enough of but anyone would look at my supplies and think “my god what do you need all that for” . I had a friend who would constantly tell me I have too much stuff but then this was coming from someone who had absolutely no hobbies and if she couldn’t find someone to go visit or that would visit her she would be forlorn and complain about how bored she was. I NEVER get bored! There’s always something I want to do or explore or some hobby I want to engage in.
I agree, I am honestly NEVER bored! I think that creative people rarely are. :)
Your videos are soothing, relaxing and joyful--they help center me and inspire me to create when I feel otherwise (if that made any sense lol). I think the kind of people who choose to leave rude comments are unhappy in their lives/with themselves (or what have you) and the thing that makes them feel better/pumps themselves up is to spread the negativity (misery loves company). I could be wrong, but that's the conclusion I've come up with people who do things like that. I just want to say thank you for sharing your art, time, and world (and supplies ❤️) with us, it's appreciated more than you can ever fathom ❤️❤️❤️
That's so kind, Lisette. Thank you! I appreciate it so much. xxx
@@NatashaNewtonArt you're most welcome ❤️
I’m probably rewatching this video because I love hearing what paint you love and hearing your relaxing voice! Sorry to hear about ugly comments, so ridiculous! Just wanted to say thank you for the joy you bring to me and so many others! I too love to collect and play with art supplies, and it’s not my job even! We all should have hobbies and a passion for life. I love color and seeing paint flow with water and mixing colors is such a thrill. I appreciate hearing what colors others enjoy as well so it’s a fascinating thing! You asked what greens we would recommend, and my favs are D.S. Cascade Green, Green Apatite Genuine, Undersea Green, and Green Gold to add to wet landscape color! Just a small amount of GG into a painted area adds beautiful light! I also adore Schmincke Sap Green, Chromium Oxide green and Permanent Olive. These are my favorites for landscapes or interesting backgrounds.
Thank you so much!
Hey Natasha! Thank you for spoiling us with two videos this week! Love all the swatching but it makes me want to buy more watercolours so for that reason, ‘don’t buy any more watercolours’🤣 I think the ocean grey watercolour you searched at the end is granulating so maybe that’s why you didn’t see much of a difference using the granulation spray but I’ve also tried the spray and wasn’t very impressed- I may be doing something wrong though?! Anyway, take care and have a great week 😊💜
The Ocean Grey is an interesting colour because I've used it before and it was completely ungranulating (is that a word?), but then it looked slightly granulating on this paper. Someone mentioned mixing a little of the granulation medium with the paint before applying to the paper, so I may try that! Wishing you a good week too! x
I needed this swatching session. Just watched Steel Magnolias for the trillionth time. I never don’t get emotional during the end of the movie 😂
I’m all about that ocean blue!
Natasha, I love your channel. Sometimes I’m not in the mood for a lot of banter but that doesn’t seem to be the case with your vids. I can honestly say I’ve made paint choices because of your swatching. I also wait to watch your videos when I have time to enjoy the banter. It’s a CHOICE. Misery loves company, I say ignore, delete and move on. I can see swatches on any channel, we are here because of you and your delivery. May you be blessed and elevated!
Don’t buy more watercolors, NOT! 🙃
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that. :)
Double thank you. I was looking for a dark blue and you have just shown me two of them: Schmincke Galaxy Black and Deep Sea Indigo. They are stunning. I guess there will be two paintings. 😱 Kind regards.
Thank you for deleting the trolls so we don’t have to suffer them too. That is very kind of you. Please try not to let them into your head and upset you; easier said than done I know. I enjoy your videos very much and especially find the new supplies ones helpful . It helps us decide which to get, or sometimes what isn’t going to work for us. And the way you do it is so relaxing and entertaining. So I’m really not going to ask you to get no more, am I? Keep up the good work.
Thanks Jan! :)
My favorite green is green earth! It makes me so happy and it has a dullness to it that makes me feel comfy because it’s soft and earthy. My second favorite is phthalo green blue and yellow shade for the opposite reason. I used to not like green that much but I’ve come to appreciate it. I also like PG17 with PG23. I understand that people say you don’t need a big palette or a lot of colors in a palette…but I like enjoying myself.
I told myself that I shouldn’t care that much about what people like and more myself. I like digital and traditional art and want to learn both but people on both sides can be competitive and argumentative to weed people out but it’s annoying hearing it and wondering if I should do something or not.
Anyway, I subscribed because I like your searching and I like how you talk with no music in the back and just swatch for a while. It doesn’t matter how long the video is to me, I enjoy it. Just enjoy yourself. People will come when you do.
Love the chattiness. Love seeing all the news paints. As for the trolls. That's what they are. Sad little human beings. If buying paints make you happy - whether it's you job or not - then you should buy the paints. Changes nothing in their lives. As for my favourite green - at the moment I can't get enough of my pyrelene green. I love the painting! Natasha please don't buy more watercolours (but please do - it makes you and almost everyone of us happy!)
Some people have little to do. I love watching your videos and I have learned so much from you. Keep up the good work, the haters can swivel up their own backsides!
😂😂😂
Natasha! Never stop buying watercolors!! 😉
Honestly Natasha! You can only affect yourself and the things you do and/or say. I’m one of those who believe that it doesn’t matter what you do or say 50% of the people will like you and the rest will be haters. Even if you would do everything in your power to satisfy everybody there would be haters…then they would say that you are a pleaser and aren’t showing who you really are 😳. Some of the haters are people that are just green of envy instead of trying to please them self.
So my advice (if it counts) is that you do what ever makes you happy and appreciate us (which I know you do 🥰) that see the joy you brings to us and keep being positive happy person!
I really love your videos and ALL the things you buy!
Edit: can’t you block these nasty people from commenting?
Another lovely video thank you :)
