Love, love, love those greens and blues💕 Have you considered having a post office box (or whatever the equivalent is in the UK) so your viewers can send you items that are hard to find where you are? That Turner gouache is available in the US and so affordable. Think about it. Thanks for a lovely soothing break in my day.

Hey Laura! Thank you so much for watching! I think why I swatched similar colour in different mediums because I love working in mixed media. I also thought this would be interesting for anyone up here, to find the media they are working with. :)) Haha, yes, that is my favourite, I think its fine, thank you for suggestion though! I actually got a few suggestions from this video comments where I can buy them in the UK. :)

I found your channel on the weekend and am bingeing it. I love your colour choices - you and I seem to have the same favourites. What more would you need? They’re all about nature and just make me feel calm and happy. If someone made a set of those 10 colours in colouring pencils and markers I think it would be a runaway success. I think the one colour I would add is teal.

I already know Derwent's Drawing pencils and love them, they're on my art supplies shopping list. I always do a lot of color swatches and wonder why I never thought of making a color book before? What a wonderful idea. I have already picked up a small sketchbook for this purpose. Thank you so much for this video, I'm super excited for the next video.

Loved to see your enthusiasm swatching your favourite colours (jade green is one of my favourite prismacolor pencils) 😊 I personally always fall for all sorts of turquoise and olive green/green gold/ochre. Funny thing is I was just filming a video today about some new supplies I got (I'm taking courage to venture into building my own channel, which is at the same time scary and exciting) and one of the paints is exactly this tone of blue you said you love (misty blue). Hopefully I'll post it soon so you can check that out if you wish, maybe grow your collection 😊
