It's time to reveal my new watercolour palette and swatch the 47 colours I've chosen! This is a long, chatty video - perfect for you to put on in the background while you work on your own projects. I'd love to hear which colours you like the most, and which colours you couldn't live without in your own palette!

This was incredibly relaxing to watch. I only now realise that swatching this way seems just so right. Beautiful colours shouldn’t be boxed in. I like big palettes and I cannot lie! 😊

I feel honoured that my mini sticker is on your new watercolour palette!

I love the way you swatch in this video. The swatches look like pebbles on a magical beach. Very pleasing to the eye. 😊 Ps I like big palettes and I cannot lie!

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! Lol I would love to build another palette but i live in New Zealand and its difficult choosing without swatching 😅 so glad you take the time to swatch as it’s a great resource for me!

I love huge large palette where you can put ALL your favorite colours. I live in Japan btw. I find your work very inspiring 😊So huge thanks for your effort and time 🎉🎉❤❤❤

love love love the granulating blues. I like big palettes and I cannot lie :)

I like big palettes and cannot lie: no favorite color/s - it's what you, Natasha, do with them that makes them significant :)

"I like big palettes and I can not lie!" Great colors!

I like big pallets, and big pallet videos, and I can not lie !

Wonderful swatching video! I find watching you swatch, unwrap art hauls or highlight areas you have visited are all so soothing to me. Thank you for your very conversational videos. Love your new palette. You have shown me quite a few new paints that I am rushing to add to my wish list. Three colors I love are from Cheap Joes in the US- Pat’s Coastal Blue (a beautiful soft blue/grey/green), Blue Stone (a lovely medium bluish grey ) and June Bug (a darker very pretty greenish blue). I like big palettes & I can not lie! Thank you.

What a treat! ♥ I keep my watercolor palette quite limited but I love seeing yours, your videos are so calming 😊

I love big palettes and I cannot lie! Thank you for another lovely video

I love how you spend so much time thinking about your palette. I want to spend more time doing this.

I like big palettes and I cannot lie. 😊 Thanks for the lovely video!

What a fun way to make swatches! Love it! Thanks :)

I like big palettes and I can not lie! I'm new to art/drawing and I so enjoy watching your creativity and process. Thank you for introducing me to handmade watercolor paints - I didn't even know such a thing existed! I love all your colors so I can't pick one. What I do like and you might find fun are colors with a bit of shimmer. I think used in a judicious way they add a beautiful unexpected accent.

I really, really, love big palettes and I can not lie. Just love all watercolor paints. It's addictive.

LOL. I like big palettes and I cannot lie. Gorgeous swatches and wonderful selection of colors! Your swatching videos are so relaxing. ❤

The DS Sodalite and SH Tundra Pink grab my eye over and over again in this video but honestly the entire bottom half of that page is just so me.... I *LOVE* all of them!! Thanks for this video!

Had to comment again, I am so obsessed with how you swatch. From your perfect circles a while ago, to the rectangles, to these shapes, I am obsessed :)

LOL - I like big palettes and I cannot lie!! Lovely color selection for 2022 - looking forward to seeing you use those blues and greens.

I LOVE big pallets and I cannot lie. And I love your palette! 🤓🌻❤️

I love big palettes and I cannot lie :) looking forward to more videos - thank you for all the time you put into making them. They are very calming but also jam packed with inspiration

I like big palettes and I can not lie. I love the tundra pink and my favourite colour is one I made myself from leftover soap making ingredients from activated charcoal, ultramarine and red clay. It's like Sodalite from Daniel Smith. Love your palette. Thank you 🌞

I Do like big palettes and I cannot lie!! This looks so inspiring. I'm sure you're having lots of fun putting this palette thru it's paces in new artwork! My favourites are all the Blues and Greens - I'm always over-buying those colours. Can never have enough variety with those!!💗

Oh my... I can not lie.. I love this big palette! My favorites are rose dore, tundra pink and omg that ocean grey..!! In my palette I currently love madder brown by Schmincke, goethite and lunar blue ))

The swatch list looks tasty itself. I like big palettes and I cannot lie!

What a lovely palette, and video!! 😊 There are so many beautiful colours that I can't choose. But I really like Daniel Smith's and Schmincke's granulating colours. The one colour that I wouldn't be able to live without is definitely and of course, paynes grey! 😋 I like big palettes and I cannot lie!

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! This is such a gorgeous pallette. 😍

You led me to a new favorite - Winsor & Newton "Caput Mortum Violet". I like big palettes and I cannot lie!

I love big palettes and I cannot lie? I also love my Daniel Smith Cascade Green, Sodalite Gen, and QOR Quinacridone Violet. I do think I have to finally pick up that Tundra Pink and the Misty morning. They have been in my cart for awhile. So beautiful. Thank you for the swatch fix!

Thanks for sharing your fabulous new palette with us, Natasha! While I have a pretty large collection of watercolors, I often use a very restricted palette. My must-have colors are (Daniel Smith) ultramarine, burnt umber, Azo yellow, and Permanent Red. My larger palette is a bit idiosyncratic because I’m using techniques I learned from Jeanne Vodden which use staining colors. Thanks again for another fun video! Lots of hugs from Oregon! -Tara Kate

I love BIG palettes and I cannot lie! My favorite is Naples yellow and Caput Mortuum

I like big palettes and I can not lie! Beautiful colours.

I cannot lie I love big palettes too, Natasha! There are so many beautiful shades. I particularly liked the Phthalo Turquoise...I've been searching for a shade of blue green for a painting I want to do. I'm trying to match colors with an uhpolstered piece. I think you've gotten me fairly close! 🙂 Excellent job! Thanks!

This switching video has really inspired me to start creating! The granulation rssulting in the pebble look? Chef's kiss! I like big pallets and I cannot lie (that was fun)

I really believe that watercolor palettes activate our serotonin, it works for me.🥳Those colors are all beautiful, I loved the cobalt blue teal, the sodalite, tundra pink and potter's pink. I couldn't live without my french ultramarine blue. I enjoyed watching your swatch. Thanks !

I have recently acquired buff titanium after watching one of your videos. It's a surprisingly useful colour. I like Big palettes and I cannot lie. You have gorgeous colours in yours Natasha

yay! I have ben waiting for this :)

I absolutely LOVE big pallets and I cannot lie! lol! Lovely collection of go-to's!

Such a pretty palette, well done!

I like big palettes and I cannot lie lol I really love the misty morning color u showed us I must put it on my wish list lol and the cobalt turquoise is so pretty I love that color I also love Payne’s greys and the ds jaynes grey is on my wish list as well I am trying to put a palette together myself currently I am still collecting colors lol

I always take out the insert use magnets to fit almost double intended amount, I just ordered all my Christmas presents, for my daughter ex hubby , her husband and grand daughter and of course I bought me stuff! Caran d ache museum aquarelle, full set I can’t wait to get them, 4 pencil cases, 27 luminance, upon which I will build every month , buying a few at a time

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! Lol!! This was so therapeutic and relaxing, thank you. I love all of the colours you've chosen, but those blues, violets, greens, the granulating colours on the bottom half, oh they bring me so much joy and make my heart sing!!!!! They do look like pebbles 💟😊🤗 a pebble video and a colour mixing video would be great. Xxx

I think mixing colours between brands is a good practice because there are certain hues and pigment composition found in just certain brands that appeals to me the most. My own custom palette is a mix of qor, sennelier, white nights and daniel smith and I feel like they go really well together.

I love the color of the Daniel Smith Aussie Red Gold, myself. It's just the kind of color that makes me want to do something with it everytime I put it to paper.

I like big pallets!! I need a bag with that printed on it... LOVE those blues and purples and that green-gold 💙💜

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! haha I love watching all of your haul and swatching videos, so calming and informative! Thank you for sharing. :)

Beautiful color choices Natasha. I like big palettes and I cannot lie! 😊

Gorgeous!

I am really loving the Sodalite! I am very curious about the Ocean Grey. I LOVE big palettes and I cannot lie! ❤️🎨

I like big palettes and and I cannot lie. Oh boy I need more 🎨

First thing: the color selection for your palette is gorgeous! Second thing: you’re too right about the “rules” of art and how freeing it is to break them. It’s really nice to hear it verbalized, and even better to see the proof in the form of how beautiful it can be (e.g. in this case, to have a palette that is a “rule-breaker.”). And do you know what? You have inspired me to give my own palette a little shake-up. I currently have 2 separate ones (granulating and non-granulating), but there are colors on there I never use. I think I’m going to steal a move from your book and make a palette only of colors I absolutely love! Thank your for the inspiration!

I LOVE big palettes and I can not lie!

I like big pallets and I cannot lie! This makes me really want to start working with watercolour!

This new reconfigured main palette is indeed and thing of beauty as is the swatch card. You realy do have a gift for choosing colours abd creating your palettes,so much thought and insight goes into them,it's like you've created your own curated palette. Happy to see a colour from Beyond Indigo (ilovetheir paints to) made it ino these colours. It's great for your creative well being to have a palette of colours that makes you happy each time you open it up to use it,brcause it's more inspiring and motivating and also enhances your colour mixing skills too. I didsn't know "Buff Titanium" was a colur untill your videos but it's one hat I love too now and it is a great mixing colour. I think it's good o mic different makes of paint. My main handmade watercolour palette is a mix of all the sellers on etsy and other sites that make the handmade colours I now use. It's so nice to hear why you chose tghese colours and how you you'll use them in your work and how they are also helpimg you be more bold in you paintings. It's good to swatch in a more fun and organic looking way too. The indain paints yoy spoke of for another video would these be from "Blue Pine Arts" maybe and the lovely Trupti, I have a lot of their colours too,thy are so rich and so highly pigmented. These videos are a great look behind your studio scene so to speak and I love that you share that with us.But it's also inspiring for us to look at changing our colour palettes and I do change my palettes in all the mediums I work with. I love the Betty Hayways brushes too,they hold so much water/pigment but also come to a grat point for details but also are great for laying down large washes too and are actually really durable and lovely to hold as you paint. Good to hae how much of a differece the Flexi spot tand and soit desk is making for you as wel,again a great investment in your creative well being (as it has benen in mine,thanks to your recomndation). This was such a great video to watch and listen to. (matt). P.S I like Big Palettes and I cannot lie!! Naples yellow is a colour I couldn't live out as it is and as a mixing colour,from your new palette I love the Green gold colour. Another colour I love is "terre verte" from Good Honey,this is a great dark mixing green I use a lot.

So nice to see all the colours swatched out! My favorites are Forest Blue and Ocean Grey, they are stunning. And I like big palettes and I cannot lie ^^

The bottom of the page looks the best. I like big palettes and I cannot lie.☺️

You’ve created a beautiful palette. 💕 I like big palettes and I cannot lie- hee hee.

I like big pallets and I cannot lie there were so many colours I was ohhing and arring over I may just have to add some to my ever growing pallet

Hey there beautiful x ... my faves from your updated pallet are numerous 😋! so I'll restrict to 5 - Perylene Violet, Sodalite, Pthalo Turquoise, Vivianite (which I am STILL waiting to come back into stock) & Green Gold. I'm also loving the look of Rose Dorè, Shell Pink & Naples Yellow - quite a departure from the colours I normally gravitate towards. I like big pallets & I cannot lie! ☺ Big loves to you & Dominic xx

I love big palates and I can not lie! I really love the RS Misty Morning and I can't live without a bluish Payne's Gray

I have lots of colours! I have been filling empty half and full pans and use multiple pallets. I have been enjoying spreading them out all around me and pre-wetting them. Mixing watercolour and gouache. I have also been pre-mixing custom mixes and primarily investing in tubes after pigment research erring on the side of lightfast and best for custom mixes. Since I have been doing this I've been easily and quickly painting more and more and I have looked at it and am up to triple the paintings in 1/3 the time! This Was double when I was at round half the pre prepared paints; but has moved up to triple more recently as I have so many pre prepared half pans! I have separate swatch cards (in order) that fit the shape for each pallet and additional notes on the colours/mixes and different tests and notes for many paper types (continuing to research the papers as I go forward; as things work differently on different papers!) I am continuing forward this way as I've already been enjoying painting WAY more and as I said I now have Triple the total output and I've been working 2-3 time faster as well! I've lately been experimenting with adding a touch of pure honey to some as well (I plan to re-pour a couple of the harder to re wet ones and add a touch of honey for example soon). Anyways another piece of advice I'll share is to buy various cheap make up brushes from the dollar store and use them with watercolours and gouache paints! (Also Acrylic paint...) They are amazing and allow special techniques that help you 1) blend softly 2) gradients 3) large areas of soft washes 4) use watercolours better on cheaper papers 5) use a mix of watercolours + gouache better! I think I need to make a KZfaq video about some of these things myself soon! I think some of my faves specifically are: Quinacridone (Red, coral and Rose), Pthalo blue, terquoise and green, DS Perylene Green, DS Aussie Red gold, DS Quinacridone Gold, Quinacridone burnt orange, M. Graham Anthraquinone Blue + Terra Rosa (seprately and mixed as a super deep 'vibrant' black, Senellier ultramarine deep, Van gogh: Carmine, rose, neutral tint, davy's grey and Azo yellow deep. I love all colours to one extent or another and change pallets (I don't use all colours in each painting!) often. I have least favorites yet have already even used all of them this year! More is more for me. Some of my other favs are custom pre made mixes I created after research in empty half pans using tube paint and/or hydrus. including my lightfast moonglow mix (dupe), mineral violet mix, shadow violet mix (1,2 +3), vibrant black, Lunar blue mix, prussian green, rose dore and cascade green. Some are to save buying too many expensive separate tubes (most) while some art to improve or 'original' inventions (not avialable in tubes. I have more than the examples here as well! Long comment over Fun video, thanks.

I wanted to thank you for sharing your palettes and your watercolor paint reviews. I just purchased a small palette from Red Clover Meadow as a little gift to myself, and I would have never have known about them if it hadn't been for you. I'm very excited to receive it and try it out. So, thank you for sharing with us.

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! I need to expand my palette into a large palette. I have wrote a few of these colours down, I am drawn to the ones that granulate but they are all beautiful. X

I love the Misty Morning….. I honestly am so in love with granulating separating watercolors. I have many of these colors too. I love all the Lunars by DS and I also love all my RS watercolors. I must try Misty Morning. Thank you for the swatch session!! I love your palette and look forward to watching more of your videos!!

You have inspired me to create my own pallette. I'm really enjoying the dark blues and dark aquas! I always thought I was more of a browns and oranges person! I like big pallettes and I cannot lie! I don't have a big pallette...yet!🤎

That Sodalite is just...fwaaaaahhh! So good. It's a gorgeous palette.

Such a wonderful moody palette, I love it so much! I'm still learning to paint with watercolors, but it's definitely the atmosphere I'm in love with! Those deep murky blues are greens just give me goosebumps, I can't help myself)

I've got Stoneground Paint's version of Vivianite. It's more of a subtle stormy blue than green. Stoneground is a handmade brand out of Canada. They make my favorite green, Florentine Green. It's a pretty opaque and more natural green.

Absolutely in love with this palette - all these smokey bluegreens! I admit I'm most tempted by the pthalo turquoise - I've been doing more mixes with a cobalt turquoise and the pthalo looks like I could get more saturated results with it. My go-to paint that i canNOT resist in any landscape is the Daniel Smith Green Apatite Genuine - it granulates into warm and cool greens and adds so much texture and variety in mixes, I tried to quit it and I just can't. And I definitely like big palettes and I cannot lie!

My two favourites are: M Graham - Anthraquinone Blue and DS - Sodalite. Gorgeous!! 😍😍😍

I like big palettes and cannot lie, though several small themed palettes are great too! I love all your granulating colours and can probably live without too many reds. I got the Roman szmal Misty morning a while ago and love the colour separation every time I use it. I was going to recommend it to you, but too late you found it!!

I like a big palette I cannot lie. And I love that you share your joy of colour with us. I am so glad that that ban has lifted for more colours....life is too short to ban things that provide such beauty . My fav colour is the D/S luna blue and R/S misty morning.

This video has totally increased my wish list! I would have a hard time going without cobalt teal for sure. Other favorites from my palette are perylene green, quinacridone coral, quinacridone violet, and delft blue (Schmincke's version of M Graham's anthraquinone blue). Sodalite has been on my wish list for a long time, and watching you swatch lunar blue and several of those greens has made me want them too, but I don't have any room in my palette :( I like big palettes and I cannot lie!

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! Favorite...easily the dusk pink. I like them all obvs but that one speaks to me.

Love, love, LOVE, the granulating colors and the color separating ones. I’m a huge fan of Roman Szmal paints and have had Misty Morning on my wish list since it came out a while ago. Now I really want it, the Jackson’s color chart doesn’t really show off how strong the color is! Thx for the share…

I wouldn't be surprised since jackson's watercolors are manufactured by sennieler. Thank you for this wonderful video!💓

I like big palettes and I cannot lie! Too many colours to choose a favourite but I particularly love the granulators and all those darker ones. Thank you very much, Natasha - as far as I'm concerned, you could never make a video that was too long!

I love big palettes and I cannot lie" love the the swatching process

I am a massive fan of Roman Smalsz watercolour after having discovered them recently and have the colours you have in your palette. I have found some DS paints that I NEED from this swatching! And I love big palettes- I haven’t learnt the fine art of reducing paints to one palette so I have two big ones out while I paint!

I Love big palettes and I cannot lie!!

I like big pallets and I cannot lie 😋 I loved all these gorgeous colours Natasha💜 I loved the purple and grey just below the purple in my pallette I favour grey greens greens red sepia yellow yellow ochre white 💜💜thanks for sharing 💜

all the greens are my favourites :'D , I like big palettes and i cannot lie . Fab as always. Just caught up with this alongside patreon had a huge binge watching session! 🤣 xx

I like big palettes and I cannot lie!!! Lovely video Natasha, it's really helpful to see all of these colours swatched together to see how different they are. I love the Roman Smzl, I don't have any but they may just be going on my letter to santa... I too can't live without a paynes grey 🥰

Dear Natasha, I do believe you are proud of this AMAZING palette 💜 Just looking at the swatches you made has inspired me so much to take out my paints again. Thank you very much! And ..."I love big palettes and I cannot lie" (I absolutely do, I mean, why can't we have like two more hands to paint with so many beautiful colors?😂) I do not have a "main palette", I'd rather keep all my watercolors organized by color family in dedicated palettes. But honestly I am reconsidering this system because I can see how useful is a main selection, in order to get to know your favourite paints. My fav picks by your pebbles swatch chart are Tundra Pink, Lunar Red Rock and Schmincke's new released Ocean Gray. Thank you for sharing with us, I love the chatting-type videos😊 I would like to recommend you some colors I really love, I hope you will find some interesting ones among these💜: •perylene maroon (I have Mijello, but I know W&N and DS make it for sure); •quinacridone burnt orange; •mahogany brown and spinell brown(both Schmincke); •"magnesium brown" (by W&N, the same pigment as DS "Lunar Earth"); •"Sennelier's gray" and warm gray (kinda like a buff titanium but slightly more intense), both by Sennelier ; •Naphtamide maroon (DS); •phtalo turquoise (Maimeri Blu, the single pigment version with PB16) •nickel azo yellow (PY150 by any brand), one of my absolute favourite colours. And I have to end it here because I could just go on and on! Lol Love 💜

Good to see you swatching the dusky pink alongside some of the others you have - I'm waiting to open mine as I'm currently working mainly in oil pastel and/or pencil. I love big palettes and I cannot lie - but I have multiple small pallettes, mostly divided by colour. I love pink and purple shades of watercolour, but also loving my sunlight shades and greens I'm currently using. It's good to meet other artists who work in multiple single-mediums. 👋😁

that was a beautiful journey!

I LOVE your videos and I love the larger swatches. I really wished (in the end) you had labeled the colors. I loved some of them so much and I couldn't tell which was what color!

I love big palettes and I cannot lie! 😄

Lovely to watch this video. My favourite colour in there is Sodalite. I also love Potter's Pink. I like big palettes bad I cannot lie 😂

I love Sarah and Kriksis, too. Sarah in scotland, her second channel is amazing, too. Such a nice Country an landscape she shows there.

I like your big palettes and I cannot lie!

Hi Natasha. I’m really enjoying Roman szmals hematite violet shade at the moment and I like big palettes and I cannot lie! 🤣💕

🤣🤣 I like big palettes and I cannot lie ! These are my all time favourite kind of videos ( and mixing videos ) , I’m just redoing my palette so this was timely and I think you’re so right , put in your palette what you love ! I’ve come to the conclusion that I adore dusty , muted tones and the brights that I do use need to be in a separate smaller palette . I think sodalite is a colour I wouldn’t want to be without and Daniel Smiths shadow violet has become a real favourite, Aquarius green ( bit like undersea green but better separation) is a great one too . I adored your bottom couple of rows , I loved the misty morning and tundra pink …….. so beautiful. Thanks for a brilliant video , I shall no doubt watch it more than once 🙈🤣❤️

All lovely!!! I'd love to see your paint tube container or how you store them. :) :) :)

I would love more watercolour mixing videos. I find watercolour mixing so meditative and relaxing and do a lot of it if I feel overwhelmed or anxious. It's so magical to find surprising new colours. Some oranges and ultramarine can make a beautiful muted purple, and green gold and quin rose make beautiful peach pinks.

I like big palettes and I cannot lie. 😳 I am dying to try some of those. Been back and forth on whether to dump all that money into schminke tundra pink and sodalite genuine. But I have to have them now! Thank you for giving me more to add to my Christmas list :)

A bit late to this video, but I own the cobalt green dark from Schmincke and that certainly was an eye opener for myself, it does so well in green mixes. I might need to get my hands on the forest blue as well. "Sodalite" looks beautiful from your palette and I'm certainly more drawn to the moody blues and greens on your palette.
