    A Dingus Draws i feel like green is actually more underrated (except for landscape painters ofc) i love greens but i only like it as a color and not anything else (like fav color for paintings, clothing and such) if that makes sense. I understand that green look sick sometimes and me myself is scared to use it as the main scheme in my own painting as well.

    How To Mix Watercolour Paints.(My Basic Palette Colours) Tips and Techniques on Mixing: Anne Kerr Art Studio. In this video she talks about Naples Yellow @ the 20:00 minute mark. Sorry to include another artist- . but it is interesting. She is using a Windsor and Newton Naples Yellow and says it does not react (blend) like other Naples Yellow brands and points out Naples Yellow is Opaque- and to keep it separate from other paints if you go for transparency in you watercolors.

    Oh, their Cobalt Violet and Transparent Orange (more vivid than Daniel Smiths Transparent Pyrrol Orange) are awesome as well! I'm also partial to their Winsor Red, since it glows more than the reds from Daniel Smith, and is slightly warmer than that pyrrol red. Am exploring their Permanent Carmine too, which is beautiful and intense albeit a bit streaky. Almost forgot the Yellow Ochre and Gold Ochre as well! They are great. Oto Kano has a Colossal Color Showdown on yellow ochre. And the Gold Ochre really has a sheen to it. Worth checking out! (Other than that I mostly have other brands, many colors from Daniel Smith.)

    ​@@louetkeWell it's kind of difficult to explain but let me try at least. There is a difference to a credit card in (for example) America or Europe. In Europe we all get a card from the Bank at which you have your bank account. With that card we pay everything (including health care, groceries, utility bills etc. although some are abviously withdrawn automatically by the government). A creditcard in America is a card which can be used as a method of payment but the money is being taken from you at a later time, usually with interest. We don't have those, unless you want one and you can apply for one. I hope you understand what I mean ;) It still sucks though that I can't go to skillshare because I don't have the right card. Oh I'm from the Netherlands by the way!

    Fantastic video. I just bought a ridiculous amount of paints (28 tubes) because my local art supply store was having an annual sale. And, of course, the Daniel Smith rep was there on Saturday (a total enabler), with a bunch of paper, brushes and a huge bag of tubes of paint for people to sit down and try. I played for almost an hour, and then had to go home and swatch everything out. It took me hours, and then, of course, I had to go back on Sunday, and buy some more colors to fill out areas of color that I had neglected. What a JUNKIE I am, though I guess there are worse addictions to have. Anyway, found you through Denise and you are great! Thanks thanks thanks!

    I think we both know me long enough to know that I'm a big fan of custom watercolor palettes, so I'm hype that you've made yourself a new setup! It's soooo pretttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Part of the reason that I made my palettes easy to swap paints in and out is for exactly the reasons you talked about; worrying that you'll have chosen too many colors that are pretty but don't work together, worrying you'll have missed a color you really need or like, etc etc. That's why so many of my palettes are easy to both adjust the paints as well as the color chart without having to jus totally rip apart everything. Also, undersea green is soooo goooooooodddddd.

You explain at the very beginning that you are given many to try out, and some are gifted to you. I feel it's none of my business how many you have or how you got them or who will get them in your will. I'm just thankful that you are sharing your knowledge and are willing to answer our questions. I'm 68 and don't have that many tubes, but I'm getting them one or more at a time. I'm not jealous of you(even though I too would like to have more} I'm happy you have them and they make you happy and you are giving freely your gift of knowledge to us. Thanks again.

It's an amazing color, that no matter how I try to mix the two pigments together from separate tubes of PBr7 and PB15 I just can't make them create the same magic as Daniel Smith's mixture. Same with Rose of Ultramarine. The granulation is so beautiful :) For my perfect palette I couldn't narrow it down this far, so I used a case with 60 spaces lol. I've recently discovered the pleasure of mixing Rose of Ultramarine with Serpentine Genuine, finding that I could make a whole painting with just those and be happy. I love the combo for both florals and even mixed together for making skin tones.

    Lovely palette! I have yet to find a colour that I rely on all the time but I also do not have a consistent style yet. I created a square colour chart that has 1:3 mixes on each side of the diagonal so one half has mor of the main colour and the other has more of the mixer. I mixed it up a few times though but it is still nice to look at.

    I do the whole square, and do the darkest and lightest versions of each mix. Some kind of magenta is my favorite; I need something pink to make my favorite mixes.

    I’m in shock. I new to watercolor and recently acquired some of the professional Winsor & Newton watercolor tubes- but I had NO idea you could just let them dry out like that in a palette. I watched another video where someone built there palette and I was so confused when she kept squeezing the colors in all the wells

    Yes, part of the beauty of watercolor is that you can use it wet from the tube or rehydrated from the pallet. After playing with it you begin to understand when you want to use each. When I was a kid i thought i had to allow it to dry before using, now I often use straight from the tube for wet on wet washes or when i need a higher concentration of color and reconstituted for anything else

    Wow! Can't wait to see what you're going to paint with those colours 😍 for me painting mixing charts is so relaxing and therapeutic that i tend to do the square version so that they can take longer to paint :3 Always need a granulating colour in my palette, usually potter's pink, cerulean blue, cobalt blue or cobalt teal, i need to have one of those at all times 😍😍 and py150, that yellow is a must xD A big hug, Francisca

    I really thought I had commented on this video months ago, but I guess not! I love the color choices for your palette, they're so soft and earthy :) I also took Denise's class on Skillshare, and it was a wonderful resource. The color I I love most is Qor's Green Gold, as it's a wonderful mixing color, making vibrant but earthy oranges and greens. I prefer to do my mixing chart as a part of my swatch cards. In the project section of Denise's class, I posted pictures of my swatch cards for nearly all of my colors, so about 36 I think? They're 4x6 pieces of watercolor paper gridded out into rectangles. I take my main color, and do a large swatch at the bottom, and then I use the other spots to swatch mixtures of my main color with the other colors in my palette. I like to mix the swatches with more of the main color, so that I don't get duplicates on the various cards. I paint them wet in wet (so that I can look for any granulation), and then when they dry I add a glaze on half the square to get an idea of the color at it's most saturated. I used to make a big color chart like you did, only I made the full chart with different mixing ratios, but I find my small card method easier to use and store, though it does take more time. Oh, I also wanted to mention that I recently got Transparent Red Oxide from Daniel Smith (I was spurred on by one of Oto's color showdown videos) and it makes an even darker black than my Burnt Sienna (Da Vinci) when mixed with Ultramarine Blue (also Da Vinci), with gorgeous granulation. You may want to check it out! It's a transparent version of PR101, and I replaced Burnt Sienna with it in my palette because the mixtures are so much richer. I'm adding the swatch card to my project now, so check it out if you're interested :)

    Thanks for your work arleebean! You’re my kinda WC painter :) I also hate wasting paper/time/paint doubling up swatches, I even geeked out for a few hours developing a swatching method so that I could fit all my swatches into a flooscap notebook. I did it in Microsoft excel. I found that 12x12 and 18x18 swatches ended up too large for a notebook. I almost had to do math... it was hard 😂

    This was amazing to watch and makes me want to dive in and starting purchasing wayercolors and take it back up. In highschool I decided it was my favorite painting medium. What you did proves one reason why. All you need is water? I always loved using a dryer brush to sap up wet areas or a really thick loaded brush with lots of pigment to darken areas. In school our teacher taught us how to mix each colr with white or black to make what he called tints and hues. So currently I am in confusion as to what brand to buy first? I like strong pigmented color. If I knew what was the highest pigmented wayercolor I would go with that. I would also lile to learn how to use some of the liquid additives to a watercolor art piece? That masking fluid has me uber curious? I love the way you made this pallet! You might just be the one to get me to try Skill Share. 😎

    I don't have a huge collection of watercolours yet but it very quickly expanding. I think i'd like to make a new pallet soon as i am now a bit more understanding of what i want out of my colour selection, but i hesitate because the one and only colour chat i made took me hours to finish. That was a full square with one half at mast strength and the other tinted out. If i do make a new colour chart, i think i'll try this half grid, because i really don't think i can sit there all day do a full one.
