THIS WILL MAKE MATCHING WATERCOLOURS EASY

[@kathylong1900]

Helen, I have to say this is the best way of swatching watercolour I’ve seen. I honestly don’t know why I didn’t think of it as I swatch all my pencils this way. Just never occurred to me. Thank you so much for sharing all these amazing tips!

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Oh thank you so much. It really does help and no need to mix endless colours to find the one you want 🥰

[@sulagracehenrichsen6682]

You are such a delightful lady. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. ❤

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Thank you very much Sula 😀

I usually swatch in a gradient but I can see how the individual dots can be very useful! I’ve got a small swatch card in my palettes and a big folder with individual colour swatches where I can compare the colours between brands. I love flipping through that folder as it’s very inspiring 😎

[@raecampbellsstudio]

I’m literally in the middle of doing this. Creating a comprehensive chart of all my brands. I love doing it

[@brigitteitg]

@@raecampbellsstudio Swatching is therapy for me 😂 I use plastic sleeves for business cards (or coins) so I can rearrange my swatches when I get new colours.

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Oh me too x

[@fancygirlmich]

Thanks so much for this video and sharing your swatching technique. I love it -- and will be redoing some of my swatch cards!

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Thank you Sharon Glad you found it helpful

[@firechick561]

What a fantastic method !! L never thought loading the color & diluting w/ each dip & pat would be so precise!! Beautifully done! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas!🥰👍

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Hi. My pleasure. Glad you found it useful. It’s a great way of matching colours too 😀

[@firechick561]

Yes!! I plan on redoing my swatches so matching will be much easier!

[@shrutikahalaharvi2886]

Thanks you much for showing this!❤

[@raecampbellsstudio]

You are so welcome!

[@eileencollins3126]

I have all my colors swatched the same way you are showing but only 3 dots per color on good mixed media paper. I use that because I can cut it to size and run it through my printer for the layout. I started doing this after watching your videos! It is very useful for color matching. I think the dots are more useful for me than a nice gradient. I also have done the same style for all my Inktense pencils, colored pencils, etc. They are all in one notebook along with my Daniel Smith and Winsor & Newton dot cards.

[@raecampbellsstudio]

It’s a great way to use them isn’t it?

[@michaelklein5242]

This was something I've not really thought about, Helen. Glad I watched! PS: you must have been working with carmine oil pastels just before this video, but it seems you cleaned it off your hand during a break! 😉 Just teasing!

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Lol not sure what I did

[@michaelklein5242]

Well, hopefully, you weren't bleeding or something! 😉

[@raecampbellsstudio]

@@michaelklein5242 just clumsy probably lol

[@debramarvin]

Excellent!

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Thank you

[@suewarren7738]

Thank you so much. This is brilliant. ❤

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Thank you Sue 😊

[@musia1861]

Nice idea. I do mine in my head from the mass tone and lifted area. Then again, my eyes register ultraviolet in a rainbow. Infrared registers as hot...

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Good idea. I tend to work back to front looking through the paint to see what’s underneath

[@awatercolourist]

Not first today 🙃. This is very useful. I might do it for my next swatch card.

[@raecampbellsstudio]

Aww lol. It’s a great way to match colours. Let me know how you get on

[@longwaytotipperary]
