This is interesting - seems like a great product for a travel kit over pans.

Thank you Francoise, such a great tips. I highly recommend all of your videos if someone would love to learn how to create realistic looking paintings. 🤗 It was fun to see the sticks in action from you. I really have seen them performing in just a few videos, but haven’t seen them before as a tips + tutorial. Thank you once again.

Thank you Ralitsa I appreciate it 🙂 I am glad you noticed about the tips because those sticks seem underrated, I'm happy you liked the video and I learned a lot myself too while doing it!

These are awesome! I only bought 1 stick just to try out because I wasn't sure I would like it and I've researched it (I research basically everything) and knew it was highly pigmented and just like tube/pan paint just in a stick but I just couldn't get out of my head that it's probably like a water souluabe crayon but I was so wrong. The few things that bother me with these is how to store them and having them dry once I'm done using them. I know that ds has specific containers for them but who wants to spend more money on that when we could get another stick? Lol thanks for your tip

@paintingandchocolate Жыл бұрын

Yes I see what you are referring to, mine dry fast on a paper towel then I store them away. I also got them in boxes that are not plastic but still it is convenient.

I use these sticks for calligraphy. Very fine and highly pigmented for lightfastness.

Great tips, you're right I haven't heard or thought of most of them. Excellent timing, too since I heard Daniel Smith is releasing some new stick colors soon! I've used the sticks for a long time, but mostly as a convenient method for making pans, will have to try a few of your techniques :)

I'm glad these techniques will be useful🙂, and I thank you for mentioning this release. I did not know this at all.

WOW! I'm so happy I stumbled. upon your video. I'm new to watercolors. I just bought a few sticks to try! It was so much fun watching you experiment and create your stunning painting! You are so creative! I just subscribed and can't wait to see some of your other videos!

I wanted to ask if you still enjoy and use the sticks very often? Great video, thank you.

@paintingandchocolate Ай бұрын

I don't use them often, I prefer the traditional tubes, but yes I enjoy them on the go. I take the white stick with me whenever i teach locally, more convenient than my big gouache tube.

Can you suggest 10 colors to start with. These color stick look like fun. Thank you.

@paintingandchocolate Жыл бұрын

I think the list would vary depending on the person, I would go for the primaries and for my tastes, colors like Hansa Yellow Deep, Pyrrol Red, ultramarine blue, Titanium white for highlights, burnt umber, lamp black for shadows, maybe I'd add a green like Sap green. These would be my own absolute go-to's if I was to build a palette to start, and then I would add favorite colors or things I think I need like a pink, indigo because I like it. I hope this helps.

I have these, and I never thought about running them through a puddle of water! Very helpful! The only thing I ever did was cut a piece off and wet that, or I would use a very wet brush to get some of the paint into a mixing area.
