That's what I'm thinking!

I've had it for years but never thought to use it for skintone mixes, I'm excited to experiment

Green gold is a gorgeous color for making all kinds of mixes! I wouldn't be without it.

Swords and Spectacles is there any certain mixes that you use green gold for? Just got it in the mail

I've had a greenish yellow/green gold for awhile but I never thought to use it in skin tones till I saw Tori using them and now I'm obsessed

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o6yFqstkls24iKM.html I'm learning watecolor too. Here's a great video I found today and remembered your comment. I hope it helps ❤️

Inuami to be fair - I do it all the time too 🤣

Carolina Arias Carolina!!! Hey!! 🙈💖💖💖!! I’m delighted to hear you enjoy to lavender- it’s sometimes tempting to pick up more paste colors from Holbein. They are so pretty!

I recommend watching Denise Soden's "In Liquid Color" KZfaq channel. It is incredibly valuable for anyone interested in watercolour pigments. I believe that's how Tori got so very interested in them as well.

Argastic thank you!!!

Escarlet you are far too kind! Thank you for watching!

Daina opera mixed with anything 😩 so good 👌✨✨✨ makes such cute glowy skin tones. The quin Coral is my way to curb opera usage. But guh, opera - love that color!

Hey! If you want in depth people gment info then check out handprint. come or the colour spotlight by denise sodden!

Theo Allen I know! She talks about the way pigments work in such an informed way and I have no clue how to do it haha

@@cutiepiedaina right! I have two watercolor palete that I use faithfully both are premade.

You should check out denise (aka In Liquid Color) and Dr. Oto Kano! They both have loads of videos about pigments, especially "pigment spotlight" by denise :)

Jameel Carroll happy to be of service!! Enjoy building your palette!

Amy Earls transparent red oxide in oils is the way to my heart, guh! And for English red light - I only have it in Lukas. To be honest - I don’t have many earth tone watercolors. The ones that I do have are Japanese or Korean. We know how those are multi pigment blends and kinda perform differently. I would love to one day get my hands on a legit tube of earth tones - the ones Denise Soden raves about.

allison d it’s possible to wedge and peel them out. It’s kinda satisfying 🤣

allison d If you plan on using a large brush, wells are always a pleasant to get paint from. However, if you like the ability to swap and rearrange colors often I’d recommend using pans to pour your paints in and just buy full pans instead of half for bigger “well” space.

@@saltteas I am the type to swap but I kind of ruined the snap of my old brushes from pans so I am going to sacrifice the ability to swap for better paint access

@@VictoriaGedvillas What do you do with the dry paint? Do you put them in another pallet/pan or use it up on a plate, or what?

yes, i do it sometimes and use my palette knife. i generally have no issues. you might have some trouble with honey based paints, though

itsteganyay yea! I find myself mixing my greens with my core colors. I do have a slight little smudged of phthalo green on the lid whenever I need it. Thank you for chatting with me about it! I’m feeling more inclined to swap out the colors now

Hi! Whats the name of the watercolor brand? Thanks in advance!

Beverly Anne Raquiza The name of the company is Art Philosophy. I think their previous name was Prima Marketing because they sell the same watercolor palettes called the Watercolor Confections Set. Here’s the link for the tubes: www.artphilosophy.com/product-category/art-philosophy/watercolor-tubes/

@@sophia0_o390 thank you so much! 😊

Just in case you're still debating on the Prima / Art Philosophy watercolor tubes, I just tried them. While I was really happy with the paint quality, I noticed that a lot of the pigments that they use are fugitive. Just about every red/pink, bright yellow and several of the blues will fade over time. If you're not worried about hanging your art on the wall, such as a present for family or for art for sale, then it could be a fun paint to play with. Though a good selection by ShinHan would be about the same quality for even lower price per tube. Even the cost per tube for Mission Gold is only about $3 to $4 per tube when bought in a set, with much more of a selection than the 18 colors Art Philosophy has right now. When the Art Philosophy are not on a special sale, the $8-$12 a tube price tag is up there with what you could find Daniel Smith or another really high end lightfast paint for (and you'd have a lot more choices of quality pigments).

godsandheros I wanna know your favorites!!! I’m thinking about making a second palette, the one in this video is my basic main- do everything palette. I want a new palette of special and wow. You be so sweet and looking out for me! The phthalo blue red shade was an intentional buy. I’m curious to if I prefer it to ultramarine or not. I’ll most likely opt for turquoise, but thought I would test them all out at the same time. Maybe the red shade will go in the new palette 🤔

@@VictoriaGedvillas i typed out a whole long reply and YT ate my comment i want to cry

@@VictoriaGedvillas let me sum it up dioxazine violet is an absolute must for creating realistic blondes, especially being a hairdresser, the same logic applies to cool down the warmth and create platinums and beige blondes. quin rose is my ride or die cool red, it's the perfect inbetween tone of red and magenta, and having tried using both quin red and quin magenta in it's place, just didn't yield the same results that quin rose gives you. green gold (PY129) is quickly becoming a staple, it's a great warm green for mixing skin tones and earth tones, and easily can be pulled cooler by adding PG7 so i don't really find myself missing a brighter spring green like the green gold on your palette. ultramarine and phthalo blue (GS) will probably always be my warm and cool blues, they are too perfect and i don't really have a desire to try other blues because i feel it would just be a waste. there's a reason they remain staples in so many palettes and starter sets, you know? they're reliable. those are my faves, and some stuff i am experimenting with it. i recently put quin burnt orange on my palette to see if it would make it easier to mix up some warmer hair colours and so far it is working out wonderfully for that purpose, but i had kicked quin gold off in order to fit it in and i really miss quin gold, so i need to find it a new spot. i also swapped, i think it was perylene scarlett, for vermillion to see how it is as a warm red and the jury is still out as i haven't used it enough to feel one way or another. on first impression it feels maybe too deep in tone, but it just may come down to using more water in my mixes as i'm not used to it yet.

the daniel smith split primary one she recommended is solid and around $20 on amazon, i'm sure she would also recommend the paul rubens cotten sketchbook that can also be found on amazon roughly between $16-18, you'd probably need a palette too which the one she's using in the video is, i believe was $8 the last time i purchased, and brushes the creative inspirations 4 piece set is $12 that are wonderful to start with, which tori has reviewed on her previous channel and speaks highly of :)

A really great value set is the Pretty Excellent/MeiLiang 36 pan set. I bought mine for £19, but I've seen it for like £13 on Amazon. I don't think there's a better value set around tbh.

in love with the moon excellent question, the turner colors from 2018 - the tiny tubes were from the 18 piece set. The remaining colors - they were either gifted or purchased individually

Sofie E I 100% feel you on this. All my books are outdated too and old tutorial books reference colors that are no longer on the market or fugitive. Handprint is a great start, I have a few newer books that are ok - I’ll make sure to showcase them in a later video!

for me, i binged watched a ton of watercolour videos on here. i just soaked in as much as i could and i feel quite confident about pigments and how they behave just from watching youtube (and of course experience now). it was especially helpful when i was starting out with the medium and choosing the my first paints.

If it helps there’s this website called handprint .com that has tons of information about watercolor pigments and other related topics. Though I’m not sure how frequent it updates. www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/waterfs.html

@@VictoriaGedvillas thank you so much! You replying to my comment makes me feel so special, I'm a little spellbound right now lol. Thank you for inspiring me to keep going and growing with my art! Sending lots of hugs! Thanks to those who also commented, you all are super helpful!

if you want a sketchbook not specifically for watercolor I love the illo square sketchbook because it is a perfect size for me, it is kind of like mixed media and I think it works great with alcohol markers.

Holbein is a brand and phthalos are a family of pigments ranging from blues to greens

Grekchsterv ahh ok thanks and is that the same for all the other names she’ll mention in front of colors for example Cadmium or Oprah(and other ones that I can’t think of right now)?

@@kevinnguyen68 cadmium and others like quinacridone are again just family of pigments! these are organic compounds used to make pigments for paints and have a specific tone/hue to them. while opera i believe is a type of extremely vivid pink paint.

flower child ahhhh thanks so much!

@@kevinnguyen68 you're welcome! ♡

miraxterrik that particular row of colors are mixes from the core color in my palette. Its to test which muted and dark colors I can mix. Hope this helps!

And if she’s has something going on that she doesn’t wanna tell us that’s ok, that’s alright

No videos on the weekend 👍

Victoria Gedvillas ohhhh
