Hello art friends!! Today, we’re testing out the Hahnemühle cold pressed watercolor paper and swatching the Daniel Smith color palette put together by Jean Haines. These colors are so vibrant, they just called for some florals. Have I finally found materials I love? I know, this is not the usual kind of video, but I hope you’ll enjoy it nontheless! So thank you so much for visiting my channel and hanging out with me. Have a wonderful weekend wherever you are in the world, stay creative my friends, and I’ll see you next week with a new video! XO, B.

Quick FYI. The opera pink is gorgeous but everyone needs to be aware it is a fugitive color and will fade, so is Moonglow. A UV protector can be sprayed on, as well as framing under UV protecting glass. If it's a sketchbook painting that stays closed in a book then of course it doesn't matter if it's rogue or not. I do love Daniel Smith and this set is super pretty! That granulation sings to me. I recently purchased a DS dot card and loved swatching every color on it.

I loved watching you do a colour swatch..it’s so exciting if you’re a lover of colour ❤ I also loved your flowers…a real change from your usual work,but beautiful using those colours! 🤩

All of those colors are absolute bangers! If you’re planning on buying more, wait until next week - July is World Watercolor Month, and you can usually find some great sales 😉

Beautiful floral piece, Bettina! I’m so happy that you decided to get this DS set of tubes! I did some exhaustive research, looking for single pigment paints, and decided to upgrade to this set with some holiday $$…and so happy I did! I’ve added to my tubes when I get a little mad $$, and never looked back ;) I’ve put mine in palette’s, with one for the Primatek collection (LOVE!). My palette’s have large sections and the smaller tubes fill them twice. They remain super easy to reactivate with a squirt of water, and a little goes a long way. There’s no comparison to my “bargain” dry pans set! I cannot recommend them enough. I can’t wait to see more content of you exploring your’s! Congrats on moving up to a fabulous new experience with your DS tubes!!! I love your style and your art!!!

I’ve had this set for a couple of years I think, and a lot of them are my go-to colors. I always use mostly Daniel Smith anyway, but I just love these colors, especially used together!

I love this DS set...I don't think I have seen anyone made a full swatch of them. They would only recommend them but not show them. I will look and see if I have some colors if not I will buy this set in the future. Thanks. Maria P.S. I love your flower painting at the end.

Daniel Smith is my favorite watercolor. I have a few of these colors purchased individually along with others.

Opera Pink is a fugitive color - meaning it is not lightfast. That being said it's a great color to mix with. I love Daniel Smith colors. Moon Glow is exclusive to his line. The Green Apatite Genuine is from his PrimaTek line made with mineral pigments. I got the Daniel Smith dot card. Great way to try a bunch of different colors so you can choose the ones you really want.🌸

Stunning piece today, Bettina 🥰 I purchased the DS 64-dot card and fell in love with the Primatek line and most of the quinacridone colors. I haven’t yet invested in actual tubes, but I do have a list made of my favorite 24 colors 😁 Hope to be able to get them, soon!

I enjoyed watching you swatch. I have some Daniel Smith dots coming. I had a weekend workshop a long time ago with one of my sister's art friends. He said good quality paper was the most important material. My paint splurge this year is the Kuratake Art Nouveau set.

I have only three DS colours and they're all in this set - Undersea Green, Green Apatite Genuine and Moon Glow. They are gorgeous colours. I like the look of Imperial Purple and may have to invest in that one after seeing it in your beautiful floral piece. Thanks for an informative video.

The only wasted painted is the painted left in the tube . (Not painted with) I have all these colors plus i have every green and blue . Blue greens are My favorite. I love DS. If you let them dry in half pan or palette but if your using them wet from them tube that is wasting them. Takes a day or two before they dry out and then you can use them . I use a tooth pick to help shape and get bubble out. Humid places may take two days to dry out. Arches paper to me if the best if you use a lot wet on wet, i buy it from Micheal’s w 30 coupon so wait and stock up and get for $15 a pad instead of 24 . My second favorite is the pad you’re using. I buy the 15ml tube because they cost twice as much but you get three as much. But the 5ml you typically get 3 half pans. So you dont need to buy the the 15. I like your swatch because you show the light a dark. Some people dont show contrast. Nickel azo yellow is supposed to be rare color that can cool and warm. Not sure is that watercolor myth ….great video !!!

If you are going to take your paper off the block to paint you might as well buy the pads instead. It’s cheaper and it won’t have the black edges.

@ruthjosephson3102 2 күн бұрын

If you gently squeeze the bottom sides of the tube the paint should go back into the tube.

Tried to purchase paints through your affiliate, but it sent me to the US site and I live in Canada. I think switching countries loses the affiliation. Sorry. Loved the video and, obviously the paints.

I have dried out watercolors in tubes from 40 years ago. Any advice on how I can use them? I’m thinking of cutting open the tubes but then I need a way of storing them. Thanks!🌸🦋🌿🌈🌊🐋🌅💛

@jvisser4848 Күн бұрын

You can use them! If you wind up with crumbs, maybe get some empty full pans so that the crumbs are easier to collect (easier than in half pans).

For 5 ml tubes i know. Note that with 5ml tubes, you will fill 2 big half pans! I saw at DeSerres half pans kits in metallic tins of Daniel Smith at a very good price if you wish to start a DS collection. There is a 12 half pans and a 24 colors half pans. I think the 24 is 160$ CDN which I find quite reasonable. Personally, I bought them individually (5 or 15 ml tubes) over a period of time. I had the opera pink from Windsor and Newton. I just miss the undersea green but it is a mix I make with my WN Ultramarine Blue PB29 and their Quinacridone Gold PO48, PY150. This Jean Haines palette is awesome.

Precision for my previous comment: DS Quinacridone Gold. Daniel Smith has very lovely colors and mixes. They surpass the traditional watercolor world for great reasons!
