I find watching your swatching mesmerizing. I do not use any of the brands in your demos but I learn something new that will help me analyze my paints so they can perform the way I intend them to. Thank you for taking the time to teach us something important. Kathryn

What brands do you use?

i have the Mission Gold "Red Brown" and it is indeed a unique color and pretty awesome. my ALL TIME FAV color of theirs so far is *VIOLET LAKE PV29. it is an incredible color!!!* similar to perylene violet, it is a muted grey purple with a slight warmth. i have seen *nothing* like this color anywhere and it handles like a dream. excellent for studies and monochromatic pieces and it can go from a delicate wash to a DEEP dark mass tone. --- *think of old photos* and how some are like a monochrome of sepia. this feel like that although a slightly different aesthetic. (i'm not a huge purple fan because of how unnatural they can be and what i'm usually painting, but this has an earthy quality to it.) both of these colors are stars. i haven't gotten too deep into their blues, but i suspect the ones i might feel are unique and versatile are: *Shadow Violet* PG7 + PR122 *Cobalt Turquoise Light* PB28 (a cobalt teal color but a cerulean pigment. beautiful though, and a unique shade. a little towards robin's egg blue.) *Turquoise Blue* PG7 + PB15:3 + PW6 *Peacock Blue* PB15:3 + PG7 *Cerulean Blue* PB15:3 (pthalo blue but a little more muted, and more workable i expect, especially when not mixing) *Cobalt Blue* #1 PB29 + PB15:3 (cobalts are expensive. this is an interesting dupe. similar to the cerulean, but less green.

My favorite Earth color is Sennelier Caput Mortuum. It’s very dark like a sienna, opaque, and kind of granulating. Otherwise, I use the same colors you use.

THANK YOU!!!

Beautiful colors - all!

Why do I love watching swatching posts so much?! So relaxing and satisfying! Keep swatching Jay!

Thank you very much 🙏 I got the 12x8ml tube set from Paul Rubens. It's the one in a blue box with a gold strip at the bottom. I don't know if the Burned Brown is in any other of their sets.

Paul rubens is very very nice for its price. It's so cheap especially in Asia. And most of the paints r good for artist grade paints. I replace most standard pigments I use with Paul Ruben paints, like phthalos, ultramarine, etc. I don't use PR's reds and yellows or earth tones tho. I find those colors tend to be a little more opaque than other brand's. The earth tones r a little weak, I tried their "umber" paint, it was underwhelming and I got turned off from their earth tones. I never tried their yellow ocher but the one u used here seems good.

Great stuff! Between Mijello's Yellow Ochre, Rembrandt Raw Umber, Cotman Light Red, Rembrandt Indian Red, Mijello Gold VanDyke, and Mijello Gold Sepia, you can have a very nice traditional palette of 6 (before they used to have easier availability of greens and blues). Most of the renaissance paintings were painted with just these colors. Only rich painters/commissioners could afford other colors. No need for a burnt sienna btw, since you can make that color between the Yellow Ochre and the Light Red. And if you want to make it a bit more modern (as in, 1800s-circa modern), you can swap the sepia with a dark Payne's Gray (check olegp_vision paintings for examples). Add Rembrandt's Burnt Sienna if you have a palette that holds 8 paints, and add a Caput Mortum OR Daniel Smith's Moonglow if your mini-palette holds 9. Consider also Sennelier's Warm Gray (it's like Roman Szmal's Buff Titanium which tends to feel yellow instead of grey), and a Perylene Green if your palette holds 12. You're all set for vintage-looking paintings!

It`s so good to see these side by side. Now I see why I love Cotman light red so much)) I can`t get my hands on Mijello, but I have PBr25 by Renesans and I too love it. If I could compare it w/colors on screen, it looks stronger and redder then the Mijello one, and it`s very much staining.

I can recommend adding a touch of honey or glycerin to all ‘rock’ hardening paints as being absolution for most but a few still suck dried in a pallet. Cottman raw sienna is oddly fantastic for mixes but is heavy on binder. I can highly recommend the Van Gogh paints overall and for earth tones the Sepia, And light oxide red are amazing. I do also love the Van Gogh burnt sienna. But also one of my favourite overall watercolours is the M graham Tera Rosa it’s amazing and terrific in mixes! Daniel Smith Mummy Bauxite, Permanent Brown and raw umber are also really great. The permanent brown is a more unique colour and single pigment. The mummy bauxite is a very ‘brown leather tone and I use it very often. M grahams quinacridone rust is a recent tube I got and it really has a glow and power too it I have been enjoying lately! If it’s considered and earth tone I also can’t speak highly enough about M grahams Naples yellow it has jumped right near the top of my most beloved and essential watercolours and is single pigment and has the ability to be more rich and dark or be watered down a ton to be very light. Fantastic as a ‘sunlight’ effect and for earthy yellow mixes but also it has this warm and good feeling. At any rate I also make custom dupe mixes and custom mixes in half and full pans and recommend people to try that you may love saving the time remixing each painting to ‘too high’ an amount. Some pre mix receipts I’ll share here; Also here’s the vibrant black mix most deep dark and life filled vibrant watercolour black ever!) M graham Terra Rosa + m graham Anthraquinone Blue! Maroon mix: Daniel Smith Permanent Brown + A touch of any version of alizarin crimson or ‘Permanent alizarin crimson’ Ultimate Burnt sienna mix; 2/3 cottman burnt sienna 1/3 Van Gogh burnt sienna (this is the Burt sienna I primarily use now as the mix is the ‘perfect’ version for me) Vintage pastel terracotta dupe; Chinese white 50%+ buff titanium 50% then add a touch of DS Aussie red gold, M.G Terra Rosa and a touch of any yellow ochre. Vintage pastel suede dupe; Chinese white 50% + buff titanium 50% then add a touch of any raw umber Just decided to share in case it helps someone. I personally like opaque watercolours and use also watercolours and gouache. But it’s good to know how opaque vs transparent each paint is and use appropriately.

Thanks for the swatches! It's always interesting to see multiple brands side by side. I have a Rembrandt PR101, Transparent Oxide Red. In my opinion it looks a lot like your Light oxide red although I guess they both have been in their range at the same time.

Hi. Great review and great range of earth tones. Rembrandt has two Ocher, one with two pigments PY42, PY43, the other is golden ocher only one pigment PY43, i dont understand they are very similars. Rembrant also has in its new range a beautiful Transparent Iron Oxide, PR101, I really like it. I agree with the Mijello red Brown PR25, it is another very nice color. Schmincke has another version of a very nice reddish Sepia, and a Burnt Siena Transparent that is lovely PR101 .. I bought a Daniel Smith DOT card a long time ago to check its colors, only curiosity, and it has a surprising range of earth colors , if I'm not mistaken about 65 colors, primatek range included. A real madness, I only have one Quinacridone Siena, it really is a versatile and very beautiful color. Great video Jay.
