Want to love these paints. I have the large set. I find them difficult to paint with because they dry out so easily, even when I spray them constantly with a water bottle. Love your art work.

@BeckyTregear Жыл бұрын

Yes, that can be an issue; they can "grab" the brush quite easily which isn't ideal! It didn't seem to happen so much with this set though for some reason.

Tracing is a great way to grow. It helps in understanding perspective and proportions. Of course you don't take credit for the drawings (unless you're tracing your own photos or something), but the practice you get from it is a wealth. Lovely composition on the 2nd drawing. You definitely achieved art nouveau. Wonderful work.

It also saves a lot of time, haha! But yes it is a useful tool, and does help with freehand drawing too. Thank you 😊

It’s a lovely palette and great to see swatches. I think I can mix a lot of these (some are harder to figure out), and it’s a handy reference for using a different choice of colours in a painting.

@BeckyTregear 9 ай бұрын

Many of these are colours plus white added so I'm sure they could be mixed! I've got a video from a month or so back swatching the entire range of Kuretake paints, if you wanted further reference, and also if you look on Kuretake's Gansai Tambi website, there is a list of all the pigments they use. 😊

@confidential5897 Жыл бұрын

I'm not in love with the handling of GT paints - the glossy sheen, weird blending and muddiness in mixes - but I LOVE the art nouveau color selection. The golds from the bigger set are the only thing it's missing.

@BeckyTregear Жыл бұрын

Ah yes, they can get quite glossy! I didn't notice it as much with this set though, and overall I try not to mix them together to much because it is impossible to know how many pigments are in each colour. I was tempted to pull the golds out as well for these paintings. 🙂

Beautiful colors! And your use of them for your personal painting was exquisite. I also enjoyed how you painted the one that you used as a coloring page. Thank you for clarifying how those can be used and reminding us not to take any credit for someone else's work. I hope you continue to enjoy painting with your expanding set of these colors so I have seen a few videos on this particular brand and was one day love to come but that will be further down the hopes and dreams budget. Thanks for sharing your talent with us blessings.

@BeckyTregear Жыл бұрын

Thank you, I had a lot of fun making this video, and trying out a style which was mostly unfamiliar to me. I've enjoyed all of the Kuretake sets, and they're definitely keepers! They have a 100 set in drawers which includes all of the metallic and pearlescent colours too. Might be worth buying that as a full set if it works out cheaper than all of the smaller ones. Or if you can find them as singles, create a smaller custom set. I really shopped around for my boxes to try and get them as cheap as possible. 😁

Beautiful paint out, and swatching session. I do love the colours in this set but very much doubt I would use them in an art nouveau style anything, just not my capability! I think I might ask for this for my birthday as it’s a modest ask! Unlike some of my other art desires! Well it will be if I can find it…. I enjoyed your second paint out too, that vermilion is very pretty. The green boxes are just so desirable…..

Thanks for the lovely video. These paints mix nicely for some cool fall colors.

I finally had a bit of spare money to order this set, it comes in two weeks-ish! I really wanted the colors and feel like it's a perfect way to round out the Kuretake paints I have. I have the original 24 set, then I got the 12 set with the skin tones, then I got the Starry Skies glitter set, now I'll have the set of 24 Art Nouveau colors! (I almost wrote Art Nouveaux as well, haha, silly typos). I'm so glad Kuretake's getting more attention these days. They're really an under appreciated brand for getting into watercolor painting :) I also loved your paintings as well, though I tend to enjoy the splotchiness and unpredictability of the paints. Going to be so satisfying to have most of the Kuretake colors after the set arrives.
