Yes the binding agent separated. With a long thin needle you can mix it while in the tube

I have this issue too and now I know how to check it carefully and I usually just shake them heavily for a while before I open them. 😂

All that happened with the tubes is that the binder and pigment separated, stick a toothpick in and stir it around to fix it.

Margaret F thanks for the tip!!

I just bought a Derwent graphite tint paints, Derwent pencils, a drawing kit pencils and sketch book. I love my paints. They are comforting. You are right.

Wow amazing - we have about the same watercolor taste. You say it quite right - one cannot use the japanise watercolors as western watercolors. It truly reminds of gouache. I love working with my kuratake gansai Tambi set - hahahaha, but yes it takes up a lot of space. Thank you very much for this video - I really enjoyed it lots.

Prima watercolors are not artist quality watercolors. They are not registered with lightfast ratings. They are pretty colors, but for crafting and fun.

That’s what I thought. I have a set of the Prima Vintage Pastels and two of the Jane Davenport wc sets that I think are made by Prima. They’re lots of fun. All 3 are “very good to very high non pro quality,” but no pigment disclosures and no lightfast ratings mean “ not professional.”

"They comfort me to know that they're there even if I don't use them." 13:27 That part really got me like : 🤝🤝🤝 "YESM"

Wow

The Stuart Semple palette can’t be considered professional, since they do not release pigment information. More troubling, the packaging is exactly like much cheaper paints.

You are correct. It’s a cheap generic palette repacked and then misleadingly sold as a professional grade product for a higher price to the uninformed. Stuart does this with all of his paints/mediums on his shop and it’s super frustrating. He also pays big art youtubers to ‘review’ the materials and have his talking points parroted to their audience.

😍😍😍 love it. ❤

With the Gansai Tambi set: if you only use part of it, why don't you put them into separate boxes? I have just ordered that set but I know already I will not keep the pans in the paper box, because they will get dry quickly in that. I will put them into tight-closing metal boxes and will pick the colors I want to use every time into a ceramic mixing plate anyway. You never use all colors in a painting...

I also have the arteza tube paints. The fact that they crack in the palette doesn't bother me, but if you do find it bothersome, all you have to do is add a drop of honey and mix with a toothpick in the pan.

Vada Kasefang awesome! Thanks for the tip ☺️

I am the same way with my watercolor paints. I buy the huge sets at the better deal. Of course that means now I have a bajillion paints that I will never use up.

Loved this video Talia! I’ve tried quite a few of these but you have a lovely collection. Love the way you film and edit - you just earned yourself a new subscriber!

I own the complexions prima watercolors and didn’t like them in the beginning since I couldn’t mix many colors, even skin tones, with the browns. then added a ultramarine blue and a magenta and made me love it!

Just found your channel because the Choosing Keeping review and like your art. I just received two of the retro gansai sets from them. If you like Japanese paints you might also like Holbein. Very affordable 12 and 18 tube sets of professional and mostly lightfast colors. Thanks for this review. The Stuart Semple set looks interesting.

I've been curious about Holbein! I'll have to add them to my wishlist :) Thanks so much!

Is it just me or the pastel dreams, citrus Looks like the new gamboge from Daniel Smith?

I just squish the tube with the lid still on. Its like your massaging it and it mixes instantly so yeee. I've dealt with those kind of water colours before.

Katelyn Zheng oh I should’ve put that in the description! I used paper from a block of Winsor & Newton cold pressed 300 gsm 100% cotton watercolor paper, a couple round Princeton watercolor brushes (I think mostly size 5) and the big yellow brush is by creative inspirations TI-RS size 6

You could take out the pans you are planning to use so you don't have to have the whole palette on your desk.

I will have to buy their block to try. I bought some of the large 22"x30" sheets of the same and both sides repelled water, as in the water would just bead up on the surface until I scrubbed it in forcing the paper to absorb the water. Also the texture looks different. I think they were defective and the sizing was broken or something like that lol

hello i love seeing watercolor videos ,ive been painting avery long time ,there is something about collecting watercolor sets that makes me happy also,i watch lindsay the frugal crafter she helps me find great buys on amazon ,not that i need anyones help lol

Wow we can actually see the white of the pan where you've used up some of the kurataki paints. That means you truly are getting a lot of use out of them. It's so rare that we actually see KZread artists' paint that have been used up. Even though you still have a lot of pigment left.

How old r u??

i wanted to enjoy this video.. but the music was so annoying I had to turn it off after about 4 minutes... sadly... I'm sure you did a nice job.. but the music spoiled it for me.. sorry ; (
