I love Schmincke's Burnt Umber, I do love the hues of the other Burnt Umbers too but I feel like Schmincke's is just like, the perfect neutral brown- it's not too dark, it's not too light, it's not too red, it's not too yellow, it's not too vibrant and it's not too muted. It's the perfect basic brown and I feel like it's super versatile! (Only thing is that I feel like mine is kind of hard to rewet?? (By Schmincke's standards) It might be just my pan though, since mine might be quite old)

I use both Schmincke burnt umber and transparent umber, love both of them. Those redder ones are pretty, but not what I want from burnt umber.

I know what you mean, it’s the fantastic all rounder, not too much of anything, just spot on.

Just the most helpful series, thank you! I actually swapped out Burnt Umber for Daniel Smith's Transparent Brown Oxide, as I LOVE the Transparent Red Oxide ( I swapped that in for Burnt Sienna), also, it's just the most wonderful shade of chocolate brown, to my eye. I'm going to sit down and do some mixing tho, and see if it holds up to my old BU, Holbein 😉

Now I want to pick up some gum arabic and make some watercolor with turmeric - the primary ingredient that gives mustard it's color. I've used turmeric before as a hair dye, but I haven't tried it as a paint. I already know it would be highly staining, but I'd be curious to do some lightfast, opacity and tinting strength tests.

@AleesaTana 3 жыл бұрын

Turns out Turmeric almost perfectly matches Daniel Smith's Mayan Yellow PY223 for hue and saturation, but it's definitely more staining. Still have to do a lightfast test, will check back in a week or two.

AND, turmeric is extremely fugitive. 3 Days later and the paper's almost entirely white again. Moral of the Story, Hansa Yellow Medium PY97 for best light-fast "mustard yellow" and Mayan Yellow PY223 for most accurate hue (with a lightfast of 2, so still pretty good)

Burnt umber has to be my favourite colour for mixing next to Daniel Smith's Sepia. Can't live without it on every palette I own.

@OtoKano 3 жыл бұрын

Woooo yes sepia is an amazing color too! Do you have both on your palette?

@The-Secret-Dragon 3 жыл бұрын

@@OtoKano I do! Both are a must-have for me haha :D

thank you for this video, oto!! after watching both parts i have to say i love the schmincke and roman szmal ones the most. as other comments said, schmincke is kind of in the goldilocks zone for colour temperature and is fairly well behaved, whilst i like the texture of RS a lot - i love colour separating mixes :D

I just add burnt sienna to raw umber. Thanks Oto. Looking forward to pyrrole red.💜

I have M. Graham burnt umber on my palette, and I love it. The fact that it rewets so easily is a bonus.

@cmumford1477 3 жыл бұрын

As often as possible I try to fill my palette with single pigment colours. It is easier for me to make clear colour mixes from single pigment colours without making mud. My palette is filled with Daniel Smith but from your showdown results it looks to me that Schmincke is a winner and is just beautiful. Thanks Oto!

Hello ! Ive been watching your channel for years and has beeen instrumental in my learning about pigments. However, choosing colors for a painting is very difficult for me. I was wondering if you can do a video series about just that. Why choose a certain color for a painting. Ie, would I choose and indigo to darken other colors, or maYBE A PERYLENE COLOR. what would I choose for a moody painting etc. This would not necessarily be about the color wheel but more about how would the colors interact with each other, do i need granulation etc. Its hard to explain but maybe you understand what i mean. Thank you so much for the work that you do. Marilyn

Just thought I'd drop a comment here to let you know that the Jackson's website has a sale on artisan watercolours until Friday 13th August, just in case it included any brands you wanted to try/try more of! x
