This piece turned out so beautifully! And so cool to learn we can mix our owns without some kind of fancy additive.

I think this colour will be great for urban areas with buildings etc but also animals and desserts . I would like to use it for shadows also .. thank you for your video ..

What did you use to stir the paint in the tube?

Sorry, but uv glass, museum glass and other products are shown to block the vast majority of UV rays. Unfortunately there are other parts of the sunlight spectrum that ca be harmful, and it is expensive. I would not trust ready-made frames and craft store glass, but a reputable framer.

I love your videos sooo much!!- why you didnt upload any for such a long time? 😢

Moonglow is a nice color for effects, but I have made variations and developed my own version that can be adjusted to my needs. The separation of colors has a fine effect in itself. It all depends on what the person intends to accomplish.

Thank you for this! I love my Mei Liang (Pretty Excellent) paints and finally gave in and ordered a 24 set of Paul Rubens. They arrive tomorrow and I can't wait to try them.

❤

I also don't understand why people use Alazirin crimson, you can mix it with a quicricdone rose and viridian for example.

The granulation is very cool!

Thank you! 🤗

Daniel Smith website states that both Moonglow and Quinacridone Coral are excellent lightfast??

Thank you so much for your wonderful videos and website. I am trying to transition away from using marker for my illustrations. I've learned so much from your content and it's demystified watercolor for me

Wow great information ❤

Hello. In my humble opinion Winsor & Newton is loosing the competition with Daniel Smith. Better quality and prices.

All I can say is wow! I think this is one of your best videos.

Good as always. Miss videos from you,

What a gem of a "rabbit hole" I just discovered watching your video! Thank you so much for demystifying and simply explaining what to look for.

Thanks for this comparison! There aren’t many PW6:1 videos out there, so I appreciate the effort you put into making this one. Nice painting 😊.

Just lost one of my 2 cats… she was an isabelle… same colors… she disappeared 3 weeks ago 💔😓🌸🦄🌸🐈

THANKS 🫶🫶👌 You are brilliant ! I m a semi noob and so interested in mixing my own colors & dupes! 😁 and I just discover your channel & website, and it is so interesting!! Please jeep on learning us how to mix all the pre mixes sold sometimes they are so expensive!😜😉 Have a nice day 🌸🦄🌸

Yeah, what happened to Kimberly? Missing you Kim. Where are you? Hope you're OK.

I guess that companies call PY150 so different. Daniel Smith call it really Nickel Azo Yellow. But w&n Transparent Yellow, White Nights Indian Yellow, they have Indian Gold which is supposed to be Quinacridone Gold ... I love this color and the transition between dark to light, it's totally different, in my humble opinion. Thank you!

We miss you and your great videos. 😢 Hope you're doing well. Much ❤ from Nashville TN.

I love to watch you work, you really are a superb artist

All youtubers jumped on board with this bs id like to seem the do these test to any other paint brands ..not one its rediculas

Must have missed the point but there is a nothing burger 🍔 sorry

Thank you for very helpful information

i havent painted with watercolors yet, do i need to do anything special to make a colormix "seperate" into 2 colors when painting? like using mass and undertone? or does it happen naturally with some mixes? I have no idea but i want to know. hope you will answer. i find your videos interesting, and helpful thanks

thank you. very helpful

Amazing video! Thank you!

I hate them. Encima pagué una fortuna. En Argentina todo cuesta 4 veces mas que en el resto del mundo. Indignada.

Thanks for this review. Four years later, I still love my Pretty Excellent (Mei Liang) set. Nowadays it comes with the paint poured into actual separate pans, a nice improvement! I just bought my first set of Paul Rubens, the original 24 pan set. Can't wait for it to arrive.

Since they already have an Ultramarine with the same pigment, PB29, what would you say they differences is between the new Ultramarine Deep and the regular Ultramarine? Is it just the amount of pigment? Thank you for your videos 👍👍👍

You used them like gouche..i use like water colors

I mux with arbic gum boom water color

1 hot press paper is best

Ive had the exact opposite experience

This is a diffdent formula then the pencil

Very helpful, love the close ups. Well done!

Kilimanjaro is my favorite paper aside from Arches.

I need a tube of that "Shadow"; looks like a decent sub for Moonglow without granulation...

I recently found out that you mix PBr25 with some PB60 look more like a slightly warm Burnt Umber that doesn't granulate (I am not a fan of granulating colors in most cases). Now if I could just find a non-granulating dupe for Raw Umber...

Dang, I just used it today!

Why there are soo few videos at the moment??? Missing your videos SO MUCH 😢

Your website and videos are fantastic sources of information! Thank you for your careful testing and comparisons- they are very valuable for artists interested in watercolor.

What other non-granulating "earth tone" watercolors are there out there? I paint a lot of food paintings, and the granulation in most earth tones don't really work so well for my purposes...

That was an awesome video. Details are important. I am starting out for my pleasure and I want to use quality paint, so I began researching which paints to invest in. I really had no idea there was so much difference but in the end don't we all want the work we do to last and continue as vibrant as we intended. Thank you so much for taking the time to share.

You're Awesome! I'm new to the craft and all in for the journey, just looking to find my niche /specialty skill. Good on you for putting out important and helpful information. Just from a beginner's standpoint, I'm trying to keep things basic with supplies and avoiding mistakes, which number more than the total colors of available paints. lol

Your art is stunning. Will using DS moonglow work for shadows. I just ordered a tube without knowing the information here. You'd think they'd have reformulated by now.
