My favorites in this list, which I never used before...but... Schmincke Horadam glacier green (the gradiateion is absolutely stunning); American Journey coastal fog; and I saved the best for last - I am in love with A Gallo Olive green deep (oh my it is GORGEOUS)... However, I find that all 30 colors are lovely!

Oh my goodness! So many moody luscious colors! -BUT! I'm saving all my pennies for the Wallace Seymour paints. Can't wait to see that video. I've been obsessed with them since you first showed them to us. It looks like even their Quinacridone paints granulate. Can you imagine?!? It may be a bit too much excitement for me.

First of all, this was a complete eye-opener for me to learn about some of the artisan manufacturers you've mentioned here. Secondly, your swatching is a work of beauty in it's own right and so totally absorbing to watch. These particular colour choices are also beautiful and enlightening... thank you.

Beautiful colorsI I only have two of them: A Gallo Notturno & Olive Green Deep. I love them both. From your swatches, Schmincke Glacier Green looks intriguing. My current favorite color from my palette is Daniel Smith Green Apatite.

I‘ve been obsessed with my Roman Szmal paints since I got them, especially Aquarius green, but I’m heading to England this week and I’ve ordered some Wallace Seymour paints to bring back with me and I can’t WAIT to try them. Also, thank you for showing some of the paints in your work at the beginning of the video. It’s helpful to see them swatched, but it’s also helpful to see them in action in a finished piece. Also, also, “notturno“ means night in Italian, so it’s quite fitting that you like to use it in your night landscapes!

What you've painted here is so much like what I'm seeing this summer along the shore of Lake Superior where lake-smoothed agates are all over the beaches and shining up from the shallows of the amazing clear water, so many colors arraying themselves in subtle collections of darks and lights, contrasts and analogous. I think I can find much joy at home recreating the stones as individuals as you have here like a school yearbook. Thank you so much for such a lovely exercise, Natasha.

Hi Natalie...I really enjoyed watching you swatch your fave colors of 2023. Oh my...I've veered off into pastels lately. But I'm missing my watercolors. And while I have a good size stash of pro wcs, I don't think I have any of the super-lovely colors you swatched here. Some of the ones that stood out for me are Coastal Fog, Putty, Glacier Green, French Gray & Mahogany Brown. But really, I'd be delighted with all of the colors. And I love vivid and bright colors, but lately I've been happy with going a bit moodier and I'm also experimenting with graphite and Graphitint pencils too. Thanks for sharing ❤

Sorry comment spamming here - appreciate your clearly labeled description. A valuable reference ‘sheet’. Of paint and brand. ❤️

Always so calming to listen to you swatch colors. I have recently given in and tried A Gallo (and I now get why everyone is raving about them) and "Pietra Rosa" was an instant fave. I used it in a recent painting of mine where I was a bit stuck color-wise until I got this one. I did mix it further (rarely use the paints straight out of the pan) but "pietra rosa" is the "potter's pink" that I've always wanted. Probably too bright for you, but I love it:)

Outstanding colors, I added several to my must try/buy list.

I really need one of the light greys you use for overcast skies. My green equivalents are Terre Verte and Davy’s Grey, which I use a lot for my nature paintings. They are great for subtle backgrounds, so a bluish version would complement them well. Thanks for the inspiration!

I am currently waiting for a delivery of deep deep light colours, including River. This looks so beautiful. Not my normal colours but they are so pretty together. It’s also lovely to see how you have used them in your work. Thank you. X

So moody I love it. Still in love with the Daniel Smith Blue Apaptite it has such depth. It looks a though many of the hand made watercolours are somewhat opaque? Maybe a swatch over a black waterproof line would give us more visual info. Also I am wondering if the handmade w/c companies offer the pigment make up of their colours as that could help workout if there are opacity fillers. Thank you for all your work and sharing. .

I kind of re-discovered a color I had for a long time in my palette Schmincke Horadam "perylene green". Enjoying the color so much again. ❤ I like to mix it with dabs of other colors and neutral tint too. Lovely video, I always enjoy the swatches and fun shapes. 😊

I can follow your arguments perfectly, for why you've chosen them 😊 But I think, one of your strengths is, that it still develops over time 😘 I couldn't find a 'one' favorite between them, but I'm possibly leaning towards the blue/green with that yellowish olive thrown in 😂 I love these swatching sessions, don't ever stop making them, please ❤

your swatches are looking very pretty like gemstones :) but I´m thinking some colors are a bit simular and some times is less more?...

I like that this awesome colors can make a artful pattern by itselfe with more or less water - so I need just 1,2, or 3 colors per artwork and every watercolor artwork will be very unique, interesting and harmonicly.
