Ultramarine is a warm blue. And that Phthalo Blue (since is green shade) is your cool blue. 😉😊 A trick when you are not sure, mix your blues with a cool yellow, if you get a bright green, that blue is cool, if you get an earthy/olivy green, then the blue is warm. Also, try a cool red... if it gives you a bright purple/violet, is a warm blue but if it gives you a maroon/burgundy color, then is a cool blue. ❤
It was great to see Santa Claus being so generous to you this year! 🙂 There's definitely plenty to keep you busy for the start of 2024 and I'm particularly looking forward to the acrylic stuff. I have a a growing layer of dust gathering over some acrylic supplies that I bought a long time ago (canvases, paint, brushes, mediums, stay-wet palettes etc) but have never made an attempt to start with them - I stick mostly to watercolour, line & wash and coloured pancils. I did notice that one of the earlier commenters wondered whether you might consider doing a few 'intro to acrylic' items for those of us unfamiliar with the medium and you said you would keep it in mind. I'd love to see a few videos along these lines as it might just tempt me to shake the dust off my forgotten supplies and give them some exercise. Thanks for sharing the 'joy of the big unboxing' with us all - best wishes, Brian. Oh and P.S. congrats on the one-year anniversary - you've come a long way since the early videos when you just had a few tens of subscribers. From memory, I think you were in the low 40s when I 'clicked that button'.
Cobrta water mixable paint has one extra emulsifier so that you can clean your brushes with water in steeds of soap. It comes down youget less pigment for oilpaint. Oil paint has pigment and linseed oil. You can use linseed oil to make oil fluid.
I think you’re going to love Poscas! They don’t have any of the frustrations of other brands of paint pens I’ve tried and they are wonderfully opaque. When you’re done, the frugal crafter has a tutorial on how to refill them!
Thanks for the tips! I had NO idea you could refill them! Does posca make refills or do you just do your own paint mixes? I wonder if there are replaceable nibs for them too? I was going back and forth between the posca and the Liquitex paint pens, so good to know you like them! Thank you for letting me know!
I live vicariously thru you! Thank you for the videos you do! I always look forward to watching the next videos. I really like when you are chatty. It’s like having you at my art table
What a sweet compliment! I really appreciate that! I guess I feel like I know the art journey can be a little lonely and I make the videos I'd like to see. I want it to feel like we're all just having a nice chat together about life, and art and art supplies! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
Happy anniversary! So glad to see your excitement with the new toys, comes at a good time while you're struggling with the tough issues. I've had poscas that are still good at 7 years, just keep your dupes sealed, keep them all horizontal, and give them all a shaking every few months if you haven't been using them much. Mine live in a wooden drawer set like the one that didn't work for your soft pastels. Have fun and paint the stress out.
What a fun video. I don't get out very much for various reasons (health, age, weather) but I get to go shopping anyway when you do a haul. I get to see all the nice new shiny stuff for art! Thank you for sharing! I'm praying for a speedy and full recovery for your arm.
I am so glad you liked the video and you got to do a little window shopping! And thank you so much for your kind thoughts and prayers! I appreciate them so much! Thank you for watching!
What a fun video, it’s always a vicarious thrill to watch your art hauls. I’m really interested to see how you use those Golden ‘interference’ colors. I’m new to acrylics and don’t really understand how they work, they look transparent but shiny? And that Golden with the Mica…I NEED THAT! 😂 I see folks asking for some beginner acrylic videos, I’d love that. I’ve been watercoloring for some time and am new to acrylics and interested in learning all I can. Thanks!
Poscas are a ton of fun, I think you'll really enjoy them! Just make sure to use thick paper (or apply gesso beforehand) cuz they're known to eat it up pretty bad
I'm sorry about the whole subscription thing. it is super frustrating, but thank you for resubscribing! I'm really excited about the oil painting video too! It was such a breakthrough! I feel so much better about the whole thing! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
Your art haul videos are so much fun!!!! I am waiting on a Blick order to show up anytime. Looking forward to the swatching! I love all your supplies. You will love the Poscas. I have quite a collection of them. Have a great weekend Amy. Sorry for the news about not being able to do what you love outdoors. But the art haul will make up for it. 😊😊❤
Congrats on your anniversary! You may like tai chi/qigong. The song style and Dr. Lam's version for arthritis is especially gentle, though the yang style encourages adapting moves to your needs as well.
You will love the blue so much you will be glad you have repeated colors. Make a travel journal pouch for Dr appointment waiting opportunities! ..I love Poscas.....FINGERS CROSSED THAT YOU WILL TOO@❤
I have not tried either brand! You'll have to let me know what you think! Acrylics can be a little tricky in the beginning, at least they were for me, but I've really been loving them lately! Thank you for watching!
How fun! Congrats on your one year....wooot!!! We have almost the same split primary palette. One of my fave convenience colors is phthalo turquoise and I have the same orange and purple as you do as well. I use diarylide yellow, which warm and semi opaque along with cad yellow light, and I think the same reds and blues (phthalo blue green shade and ultramarine blue) I think Golden is the best brand - so wonderfully buttery, while Liquitex is a little looser. I started using mostly Liquitex but added tubes of Golden here and there until I now have a full split primary mixing set and some convenience colors. Like you, that is pretty much what I use no matter what medium I choose. I do want to branch out in more fun colors tho. OMG...love those sparkly colors. And that mica...yummmmmmm! At any rate, what a fun art haul! Jazza just did a paint vs paint pen square-off. I definitely want to do more with paint pens. Posca isn't not in my budget though and I am looking for a more affordable brand.
Yeas I do! :) And especially Xmas ones, because it really brightens up January for me, which can be a very blah month otherwise! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
Omg thanks for mentioning that I had gotten unsubscribed and I resubscribed and I checked when you said and I had gotten dropped again! Just resubscribed again. It happened to me with some other channels I follow too. One thing I saw said it’s channels you don’t watch enough but I watch all your videos and I’m getting unsubscribed from channels I watch all the time. This happened a few years ago too.
Is there any connection to the viewers who have been unsubscribed? For example, are they all in the same country? Maybe same state? I’m in Australia and Ive not been unsubscribed at all. What a pain in the butt! I hope it gets resolved for you soon. Hugs 😊❤
I know this doesn’t sound like a fantastic solution or idea, but would it be worth letting at all of us know first and then deleting your TH-cam channel and then reinstating it or even changing over and starting a new TH-cam channel and getting people to move over there I’m wondering if that would help the hacking issue? I’m definitely no expert when it comes to technology I’m very basic but I was just wondering if this would Bank maybe help? I know that all your viewers who love you very much wood follow you straight away and I’m sure if you let some other TH-camrs know they would pass the word on their channels as well of what’s going on with you and that you’re changing channels just an idea
So COMPLETELY thrilled for your one year anniversary! You go girl!!!
Ultramarine is a warm blue.

I’d love to see how you use the Golden metallics, interference and iridescent. I have so many that I got from a bulk buy and have barely touched them.
I'm watching your channel since February 2023, and I'm still subscribed ❤
Me too

Your holding up the products were perfect😊.❤ Take care
So happy to see your excitement for your new supplies! Enjoy❤
Thank you so much!! Gift card hauls are SO much fun! Thank you for watching!
This was a lot of fun to watch! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!

Like to see you do some maybe beginner acrylics as I’m still learning. Keep your chin up Amy things will work out in the end.❤ thanks for all you do.
That is a great idea! I could totally do that! Thank you for the idea and for the encouragement! I really appreciate it!
@@winterwoodsstudio it’s my pleasure.

Have fun with all your new goodies, Amy! Happy anniversary! 🥰
Keep moving forward Amy. You've had some downs, but you've had some great ups too. Loved seeing all your new goodies.❤

Nice art haul! I think you are going to like the Posca pens. They work great with regular acrylics.
Can't wait ro try them! I've wanted them for a long time!
The muted acrylic inks are super. Especially the muted grey and violet. Enjoy
I can't wait to try them! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
Poscas are a ton of fun, I think you'll really enjoy them! Just make sure to use thick paper (or apply gesso beforehand) cuz they're known to eat it up pretty bad
I'm thinking I'd like to use the on canvases for a layer of details? But I don't know for sure yet! Thank you for watching
@@winterwoodsstudio Oh you should be fine then!
I’ve just re-subscribed! 😢I can’t wait to see your oil paint video. I’ve been patiently waiting for it. ❤
I'm sorry about the whole subscription thing. it is super frustrating, but thank you for resubscribing! I'm really excited about the oil painting video too! It was such a breakthrough! I feel so much better about the whole thing! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
I love my Meeden mixing tray for watercolor!! Think you will like it

i have the same watercolor tray and love it
Congratulations on your 1 year anniversary on TH-cam. I'm still subscribed and getting notifications on new videos
Fun haul. Lots of creativity in your future. Having POSCA repeats is really ok- they run out quickly with a lot of use.
Congrats on your anniversary! You may like tai chi/qigong. The song style and Dr. Lam's version for arthritis is especially gentle, though the yang style encourages adapting moves to your needs as well.
Just subscribed again while enjoying your art haul video from 3 days ago 😊
looks like you've got some really lovely pieces here 🥰
Thank you! 🤗
Yay! I checked and I am still subscribed ❤
Yay! Thank you for checking! I really appreciate it! It seems like it's starting to slow down. Maybe they finally figured out what was going on!
Not sure if I congratulated you yet on your 1 year anniversary! Congrats! 😊 enjoy all your fun, new, well deserved supplies.
You will love the blue so much you will be glad you have repeated colors. Make a travel journal pouch for Dr appointment waiting opportunities!
..I love Poscas.....FINGERS CROSSED THAT YOU WILL TOO@❤
I bought some acrylic this past month. I bought Amsterdam expert and some sennelier they were on sale for good price. Never worked with acrylics

Love new supplies 💜🙏
Me too! I can't wait to show you guys what I've been doing with them! Thank you for watching!
Don’t you just love gift cards! 😊
Yeas I do! :) And especially Xmas ones, because it really brightens up January for me, which can be a very blah month otherwise! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
Just checked I'm subscribed!
That's great! It seems like it's slowing down a little, so that's good! Thank you for checking!

So strange to see boxes with Utrecht on it… I was born in Utrecht..the Netherlands…
They're a paint company. I wonder if they are based there? I have some of their acrylics! Thanks for watching!
Is there any connection to the viewers who have been unsubscribed? For example, are they all in the same country? Maybe same state? I’m in Australia and Ive not been unsubscribed at all. What a pain in the butt! I hope it gets resolved for you soon. Hugs 😊❤
Repeats are wonderful! Just gives you backups! Enjoy the Poscas!
Thank you! Will do! I will try to look at it that way and not be disappointed in myself that I didn't check it!
