LOL every time I watch them I start buying stuff myself, but it is nice to get an idea for what supplies are out there and what you can do with them too.
Awesome watercolor haul!!💖😍💖 I’m very slowly dipping into watercolors so I loved seeing all the different brands. Thank you for sharing and take care, dear Kori!! 💕🤗💕
Oh Kori, this was so exciting! Yes please do a swatch party, I’m very interested. Do you put all the tube paints in palettes? Just starting on this journey. Also love seasonal palettes, I’ve been watching videos with what artists included in theirs, it’s never the same, but always lovely. Thank you for sharing this, I’m going to watch this one again and again!
So, yes, I will put them in palettes. Tubes are much more economical because you can get quite a few half pans out of a single 5ml tube, which makes it great. Plus, if you like to make various palettes like I do, such as my summer one or my other one, then you can use the tube on those palettes and spread it around :)
Thank you! 🤗After hearing a few opinions on the live, which were very very valid in terms of video quality and the flow, I think I'll do pre-recorded and maybe just have it premiere so we can all chat at least :)
Love your videos - both colouring pages and watercolour. :) Found your channel through watercolour searching! Would love to see more of anything you enjoy doing.
Love the Kristy Rice brushes! I hope she comes out with more!!! Her palette is bomb if you haven’t tried it! And yes, you should definitely do a swatch party 🙏🏻💓
Absolutely beautiful colors, I can’t wait to see you swatch them out! So please have a swatching party! I just found your channel, and subscribed! Thank you so much for sharing!😀💗
Oh welcome to the channel! Yes, I do plan to create some swatching videos. I may release them by brand just so they are easier to digest for everyone since it is a LOT of paint haha
Loved your 'Haul vid'!! You spurred my interest in Rachel’s hues, Yes I would love a "swatch party” my favorite hobby, and I would love to see your review on the Arteza and KRice brushes. I had been thinking about KR brushes for a while, but I know it is not going to make me a better WC artists! ;-) TFS! ;-)
What a fantastic haul! Thanks so much for sharing everything you purchased. I have soooo many daniel smiths and they are my absolute favorite but I also have the 48 half pan schmincke and use them only occasionally when I know I'm not going to mess something up....😆 I've never tried the granulating schmincke colors and I totally want them ALL....LOL!
Oh gosh the super granulation sets from Schmincke are sooooooooo pretty. I drool just thinking about them. I love Daniel Smith, and I'm really starting to get into their colors for sure. They have some beautiful beautiful paints!
@@ColorfullyOptimistic They're different than I expected. They're actually very pigmented (most of them) i.got the 12+6 set on sale.for 39$. I just couldn't pass that up. I finally am getting to put together my dream pallette. I got those and some daniel smiths and some quarter pans of schmincke super granulating watercolors. OH and like 3 qor colors (which i absolutely LOVE) I REALLY want to try some roman szmal and the qor earth colors next. Which if the roman szmal.would you recommend most for someone who already has a complete set and just wants something different/fun?
Just found your channel; thank you for sharing your talents with the world! Wow! You must really paint a lot to use all of these, as it would take me decades. Do you keep all of these paints or sell the ones you no longer use? You must use a ton of paper. I didn't really think 15 ml tubes were very large, as I have some DaVinci and American Journey (sold by Cheap Joe's) that are 37 ml. I am looking forward to watching several of your other videos.
The reason I tend to not go past 15ml is because unless you use it all up, it will start to dry out eventually. But, they are more economical in tubes and I like to make special palettes, including my summer one, which I just put up on my channel, other seasonal ones, mood-based ones, etc. So, I have a lot of fun creating custom palettes using those tubes!
I got some old but still new/packaged Schmincke Horadam pull pans for 1€ each. They’re my most expensive ones and cheapest at the same time lol. Got some cadmiums and cobalts so I’ll need to keep that in mind considering I often clean my waterbrushes on my hands and I cought my cat in time before she smelled my new (cheap & non-toxic) paints by dipping her nose into them instead of hovering over them like a “normal” cat would (if there is such a thing as a normal cat 😂)
I would love you to do a live swatching party! I have some Rachel Beth paints I need to swatch, and a few Daniel Smith that I recently got on sale. I absolutely love Rachel Beth’s paints. I also recently received the Kristy Rice brush set, and I love them.
Kori, I would love to see you swatch out your new watercolor paints. Personally, I prefer the pre-recorded swatching sessions because I can focus on what the host is doing in the video and not watch multiple chat sessions scrolling by. Congrats on your mega, awesome haul!
That makes total sense. Another person brought up the video quality too, since streams are more unreliable. So, I think I'll get working on the pre-recorded version.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic I think the live sessions take a lot more time too, because the host is waiting for their moderator(s) to flag user's questions that people are asking the host, then waiting for a reply from the host. I just want to see you paint the swatches out, so I can drool over what I want to buy next, lol! 🥰
@@ColorfullyOptimistic painting and coloring have been proven to help the body with pain and promotes the neurons in your body to heal faster, So do they do art?
I filled a 48 pallet with Daniel smith I swear over a week ago and they’re still not dry I think I filled it up too much or filled pans into the pallet maybe I’ll take them all out. ANY IDEAS????????
So, it depends on where you live. If you live in a very humid/warm climate, they will take awhile to dry. Out here in Utah, they dry quick haha. But, we are dry. Also, it helps if you are doing half pans/full pans to add a little, wait, then add more. When you fill the entire thing, it can take a bit to dry, and you want to leave them exposed, but covered lightly so that no dust settles into the paint while it dries.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic I’m frustrated I’m in New England and literally only been in thw 50-75 I want to put them outside but so many bugs it would end up full of them I fear we’ll have to lay flat and alone when I move back to my own house
Please please do a swatch video!!! Most art youtube viewers go gah gah for swatch videos and Im def one of them! Seeing you swatch helps us as fellow artists make decisions on our own purchases and collections, ya no, so yes yes Yes Please the answer is always a yes when it comes to: "swatch or not to swatch?"...yes def swatch...lol. anyway great video and thanks for sharing, much love 💙
Stupendous haul! Would love to see the colors swatched but as some others have pointed out, in a pre-recorded video or series of videos. I’m currently trying to paint a pineapple. Have you ever painted a pineapple? It’s so complicated! 😅
yes to the swatch party, but give it a week? I may just have bought a few (and by a few I mean a lot) Schmincke, Roman Szmal and W&N colours for my b'day and I'd love the swatching company. I have 18 or 19 of the Van Gogh colours and I like them. If I'd never crossed paths with Schmincke, I might even love them. I've been using them for my Doodlewash sketches this month. They're good paints, and certainly on my side of the Atlantic they're really affordable. Looking forward to seeing the dusk colours because I'm curious about them, they look fab
I need a few days too went on hospice and moved into a tinyyyyy 2022 caravan temporarily to have family near me , my daughters house is right next to it I’m finishing up packing so I can go home by Friday possibly tommorrow prob Tomm, she had a baby girl 2 days ago and too much over here not to mention this thing isn’t meant to be lived in permanently, I miss my house so much and can’t wait to get my but back where I belong, I cancelled hospice , reason I had it I have pancreatic cancer and they basically have up on me I refuse to just lay down and die although I’m realistic and trying to get into a trial med and my dna was sent out to see if one of them will match up and just give me more time so far with it I’ve seen 2 grand babies enter the family , which is most awesome , I do believe people praying for me has helped immensely , I’m sorry I probably just put a big damper on your post I’m sorry, but anytime after Friday I am in with a swatch party I have many sets that need to be swatched A LOTTTTTTT LOL
The issue with YT lives, although a lot of fun, is that the video quality is often lower for some reason, which would make it harder to see the paints and swatches.
Ah yes! That is actually a VERY good point. Even though I have a 4k camera, doesn't mean the quality always comes across while streaming. I might do a pre-recording then. 💜
@@ColorfullyOptimistic yh maybe the 4K will make a difference? Tbh, your livestream video is better than most, but the footage it still a bit out of focus at times, or the focus is a bit in and out and at times leaning towards pixalized. I think that probably has to do with the livestream factor. Hopefully, with technology changing faster that the speed of light, a solution will be found to have the same type of video clarity as with pre recordings. Cuz, livestreams are a lot of fun! So... on second thought, I'm a bit of two mind on this now. Perhaps a swatch with me pre-recording and than a livestream paint with me? Would that be something you would be interested in?
Woah...that's a great big watercolor haul! I finished rounding out my Daniel Smith and Winsor Newton palettes, so I'm going to be on my best behavior for a little while... LOL. Can't wait to see the swatch party!
As consolation - the Schmincke specialty palettes weren’t worth it. The actual palettes were very cheap. The edges of the central area are unfinished and sharp. Mixing area is impractical. I’ll be shifting the paints into another palette. Sometimes it’s best to note the paints & create your own. 😊
That's good to know! Sad that they don't put much effort into those specialty palettes. You are talking about the limited edition and not their normal palettes right? I have a set of Schmincke paints and that palette is just fine.
I have got to stop watching swatch hauls and get to painting with what I own
LOL every time I watch them I start buying stuff myself, but it is nice to get an idea for what supplies are out there and what you can do with them too.
Saaaaame! 😂
Awesome watercolor haul!!💖😍💖 I’m very slowly dipping into watercolors so I loved seeing all the different brands. Thank you for sharing and take care, dear Kori!! 💕🤗💕
They're so fun and relaxing 😌
angles are great for lifting.I have one size 3 or 4 I designated for lifting and it works great.
Oooh I'll have to try it out and see. I've never really used them, so that's great to know!💜

Yes! I need to play with the brushes and then I think I’ll do a comparison video for them down the road.
ooo so many pretty watercolors! i would definetly love to see swatches :) and those quill brushes look interesting as well!
I love quills. They are soooooo pretty in action.
Yes on the swatch party

Woot woot! 🎨
I would love a swatch party! Great haul, just started watercolor and tried gouache. Look forward to watercolor episodes.
I can't wait to use them either - thank you for watching!💜
Wow fantastic haul! Would love to see those colours in action. Waiting for swatch party then.
Yes! I'll be starting that here shortly because I need to get my summer palette together. 💜

They're pretty though teehee
I love the palette from Irit, I’m going to have to order that. Yes, swatch party please. I love swatching.
Isn't it so nifty? It is very versatile so that you can use your pans and tubes alike.
Ohhh, what an awesome haul! We definitely need a swatch party! 🎨💜
Yes we do! 🎨
Ohh dear. What a huge haul :D You wont have to buy watercolors for the rest of your life.
Have fun and happy painting my friend.
Well...let's never say never hahaha
I get so excited opening the watercolor pans it’s like unwrapping candy 😂
Haha I do love it, but I think when I have to do it in bulk I get a little jaded

Wow! What a beautiful haul! New subscriber for sure! So excited to see those Mission Gold swatches!!!
Oh gosh me too! I was so excited for that pure pigment set. Can't wait to swatch. 🎨
Would love for you to swatch this all. Wonderful video btw.
Thank you so much Sara! Yes, I'll be doing some swatch parties with all of these. Either one long video or by brand, but can't wait! 🎨
