ABOUT ME
Hi! My name is Margot and I am a professional artist and graphic designer. My parents like to joke that I was born with a paintbrush in hand. I started my career after graduating from the renown Parsons School of Design in New York City and spent over 15 years creating and designing for many of the world's top Fortune 500 brands and companies. My painting journey started as a side project and a creative outlet for me to step away from the computer, go back to my "roots" in fine art and to hone my skills as an illustrator and painter. I started posting some of my work on instagram and the rest is history. My work is inspired by all the things that I am passionate about. Ballet, travel, graphic design, color and finding a world of beauty in all facets of everyday life. I hope you'll join me in this KZfaq journey as I take you through all the tips, tricks and trade secrets I've gathered throughout the years. I hope I can teach you some of what I know, help you discover your creative voice and I hope you enjoy this Channel!

A. Gallo are incredible pigments. Hardest thing is don’t save them for “good” - enjoy them, relish and adore them, as they are joy on paper! And I love the stories behind the pigments. What a treat!

@julielondon4759 9 ай бұрын

Don’t worry about not including specific pigment info-your weaving of art history and your observations of specific colors was far more helpful and absorbing than dry, numerically-specific pigment info. Your narration kept me awake and engaged. Thank you so much!!!

yes, I'm a big fan of A Gallo watercolors! I have a 36 Naturale palette by combining their original Naturale with their new 12 Naturale 3 palette (That one would be great to add to your collection and they sell 12 sets and the 36 all at once!). I also have a customized signature palette of 26 colors that I also built out from a 12 signature set. The small six color palettes are also fun and I have the Natale and Landscape versions. If you get rid of Ivory Black and want a dark color, you might try their Vivianite, Dark Forest, or Indigo Green. If you want to go the more colorful direction, I'd recommend Pietro Rosa or Mineral Violet. Earth tones, Buff Titanium or grab a Quinacridone Chestnut before PR206 is gone. :). Their travel brushes are so useful and their accessories are beautiful like the handmade brush holder!

The only colors I’ve used in the brand that I don’t absolutely love are the mixes with white… but that goes for all brands of paint. I’ve done a few paintings from a recent vacation and I find capturing natural scenes with these paints to be effortless. Congratulations on your birthday and excellent choice of gift. 🎉 Thanks for a great swatching video!

So awesome to watch this video, it is truly the way I like colour best--bouncing off each other, ie., not just one colour alone, but several colors at once. Gorgeous, what beautiful palette! I really want it now, A Gallo really struck it out of the park hey? I cannot get over how buttery they look as you apply them. It's very cool to hear that you grew up in Hong Kong, but so sad at the same time, because I've been watching and hearing about what's been happening over there and what the government is getting up to. But I'll leave it there, I know that this is an art channel.

Hullo Margot, I have used these handmade paints and have my own custom selected colors in a nice 14 half pan set! You showed these richly pigmented off to amazing advantage! I am just a bit jealous of your enormous selections, so many wonderful colors with unmatched quality! I have quite a lower price range for my everyday paints. I found DaVinci Paints of California for my everyday professional grade paints. DaVinci are also richly pigmented and at a price most everyone who is looking for a professional grade paint can be satisfied with. I have tried most every brand in my 50 years of painting and while I have found some amazing paints to find an everyday paint that is so superior in most every category is a real find! This is how I feel about DaVinci. I was converted by Denise Soden, she is a truly phenomenal artist and she has had several curated sets with the DaVinci company. She has a wide range of videos right here on KZfaq! Yes, I have purchased each and every one of them. My favorite is the Earth Friendly Palette. Something about paints that are not corrosive to me or our environment is a special quality not easily put together in a watercolor palette that is useful for any subject! I hope you give some a try real soon!

Margot, as I mentioned in part #1 of the, A. Galo: SWATCH -AVAGANZA, you are a MOST WELCOME breath of fresh air! I'm new to your club but glad to be a part. I'll reiterate. It's your style, diction, elegance in fashion as well brain power. Your love for history, science or simply ARTS WHOLE PACKAGE. And the elocution of words. Uhhh. You make a [one would assume] simple SWATCH FEST and turn it on its head. Transformation, sublimation, wordsmith, and pigment dominatrix. If I wasn't sold on A. GALLO before, which I wasn't. Not from any prejudices, but rather my lack of exposure to the brand. Well, now I am COMPLETELY SOLD. Honestly, that was hands & brushes down - the Sexiest and completely VISCERAL swatching peek-a-boo EVER! SO AMAZING, I CAN'T WAIT TO DROP SEVERAL HUNDRED USES myself now. Maybe after collecting my own 15 or so, of Michael Harding's Watercolor. I saw you had a tube of Harding watercolor. Do you have an easy answer as to which brand is your personal all around favorite. Hey, thanks again for such exquisitely done swatching. It's video's like this one I appreciate most. Highly informative, SMART and SEXY, believably enthusiastic, so emotionally telling...one would find impossible to fake! Xo James

@Pointebrush 9 ай бұрын

Hi James! First I'd like to start by saying what a joy it is to *meet* you and I appreciate your insight, comments and presence on here! You are wonderful! And by the way, massive Alexander McQueen fan here too. He would be in my holy trinity alongside Mr Givenchy and Gianni Versace. Oh and Valentino, Tom Ford, Vivienne Westwood.. Oh I can't choose... There's too many... Anyway, I wanted to get back to you about Michael Harding. The few tubes I've tried from him have been out of this world. I can sense I'm going to be bad again... So my answer to your dilemma is that it really depends on the kind of painter that you are. If you love those light, airy washes like layers of chiffon, A Gallo will work well. If however, you're about pigment saturation and density that could rival an oil painting, Michael Harding will shake you to your very core. Let me know what you choose! Xo!

@nellgwenn Ай бұрын

It looks like a very cheerful palette. It's like the colors are smiling at you. If I worked wet I would want these. I wish they made colored pencils. I like all those colors. I do think it could use a few more yellows and pinks in that collection. That would be my only criticism. It's an uplifting palette.

I bought the olive green deep as a single colour when I bought a sketchpad from Jacksons. It is very pretty, but if it gets to watery it separates into blue and ochre looking pigments.

its an investment at that price, but the colours are gorgeous and as long as they are used (so many of us just never use the supplies we have lol), not a waste of money at all!!

How are you liking. a Gallo? I am hoping to order and wanted to see how they have been painting.💜

I am more a collector than a painter. I have many A Gallo pans and in August I decided to put them in one large palette. I had a horrible time handling the pans. I did put the pans in the freezer. Didn't matter. Usually August is a miserable month of high temps and humidity, but for the first time in my 71+ years, August was cold, damp, and sunless. (Only the zucchini thrived.) Didn't matter. Sticky, sticky, sticky. Lifting up each pan and placing it in the palette was so messy I had to stop and wash my fingers in between colors. Has no one else had this issue?

I have all the colors, never problems with A.Gallo. With Renesans though... so runny....

I've got 58 of the A Gallo colours and I've not had any issues with stickiness or having issues moving them around in my palette.
