Indeed 👋🏼
awww~ there's a heart next to the little note on the inside cover~ 🥰 i like this series of 'horizon' paintings :D
Yep, a well-deserved heart for sure. ❤️ I'm loving painting in this book so far!
GIVEAWAY Thank you Miranda for the opportunity to win the cute palette! Definitely a space saver for a small working area ! ❤. Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you enjoyed the day!
Thank you and yes, it was a great day. Hopefully for you as well.
New paints day - yeeaahhh! You can't see it, but I'm pumping fists here.
yeaaah what a cool giveaway - i am from denmark so i totally understand if you only do the giveaway to national winners. Thanks for showing the MaimeriBlu paints - I have had them on my wishlist for a long time. They look very nice.
So pigmented. Love MaimeriBlu!
Giveaway! Thank you for the opportunity. Also thanks so much for reviewing these paints. They look just luscious. I would love to try these wow. 😊 Happy Holidays
Giveaway
I have these paints but haven't done much mixing with them yet, so this is very helpful!
Lovely paynes grey 🥰 nice peaceful landscape 🙂
GIVEAWAY!!! 😊❤❤❤ Thank you for the opportunity.
thanks for the giveaway if it's still available. Thanks for the video review.
Thanks for putting this video together!
Nice paints! I like the lidded palette in your giveaway. Keeps the pet hair out between painting sessions.
I’d agree that more paint gets used when they’re wet (it sure seems like it!). I like Maimeri watercolours and I need to get mine out again for another painting session. I have the same ceramic palette but it isn’t by Meeden, so there must be a factory that produces them for different companies. Fun colour set, and lovely painting. Bright yellow is always a useful colour to have, for sure. 😊
Love ❤️ your blog. Watch all the time I’m a beginner. I struggle with watercolors due to heavy handed with watercolors. Love the little palette. Beautiful giveaway 😊
Lovely painting. I agree that I would need a bright yellow.
Thank you. 😊
I love your color swatches and how you organize. It always makes me want to create something like that for my acrylic paints that I have. I've been working on my water color skills with some watercolor i had from a while ago.
It'd be fun to do that with your acrylic paints! Nice that you've been practicing - I sent your goodies with Riley today. I'm going you have fun with them! ❤️
@@MirandaWatsonArt I got your items. So many new goodies to play with.😍Thank you so much!!!!!
@@Falon101 you're welcome!
My local art store carries MaimeriBlu and frequently includes them in sales, I love them! I started with only the intro set that you swatched, but I soon included a burnt umber and a paler yellow. I found the yellow in that set was hard for me to mix with initially, although I grew used to it. There are some beautiful colours in their line.
Great add-in choices!
I got so nervous when you were pouring them because I never trying pouring paint before😭 but now I’m curious to see if they deflate a little as they dry. I love my convenience colors also especially since I’m no expert at mixing😂 your painting turned out very pretty and better than I could do with only those colors. Talent lol!
They deflated quite a bit - they'll be in Friday's video again!
I would love to be entered in the GIVEAWAY for the palette. Your painting turned out great and I’m impressed that the paper held up so well to being used on both sides.
Me, too!
Giveaway ❤ thanks for sharing this video. Always love watching!
Giveaway :D Thanks for this, I'm curious to see what's inside the advent box!
GIVEAWAY.
I love the maimeriblu color selections! I have a pan palette with 12 colors and they are amazing! Not the usual same colors that most brands offer. And the quality is great! It would be a dream come true to win the porcelain palette! Fingers crossed! All the best 4 u!
I’m brand new to watercolours and after knowing about the Maimeri Blu paints for quite a while, finally decided to invest in them in December, along with a ceramic palette and some nice watercolour paint brushes. …I already had the cotton paper and an empty plastic palette. While I’m intimidated by watercolour, I also absolutely love it. When I was looking for colours online, I didn’t see that specific selection of colours. I love bright colours, so I don’t think that that specific box would tickle my fancy. I ended up buying the Jeannie Dickinson and Jenna Rainey colour selection boxes, along with eighteen other colours. While my plastic palette holds all thirty and then some, the ceramic palette ‘only’ holds twenty. I imagine as I get used to colour mixing and painting, there are several that I’ll use more than others, but for now I’m enjoying just picking a colour and having it my fingertips.
It's great to have that many colors! I always enjoy bringing out my palettes with "all" the colors. It used to intimidate me a little bit, but not anymore!
Giveaway! I have some MaimeriBlu’s I had lost and found! I rediscovered tubes I had in an old art box - and they still work beautifully! 🎨
That is awesome!
GIVEAWAY 💕💕 it’s so sweet of you to give away such a nice palette, I honestly think I wanna get this one even if someone else wins the giveaway lol The idea of using a porcelain one sounds nice ☺️ I recently started dabbling into watercolor and I just bought a huge thing of tubed paints to try out and I’m so excited! I’ve actually been using some of your paint videos as a guide 🫶🏽
Oh, awesome! Yeah, the ceramic palettes are delightful and Meeden has some of the best.
Elisabetta ( An Italian watercolor artist on YT) Pronounces it as MY-merry. I figure she knows! Interesting selection of colors, I like their paints. Their Mars Brown is my favorite dark brown hands down. I love it. It’s very opaque, also their single pigment Sepia, which is actually a yellow pigment, but a very very dark brown. The Mars brown has red and blue undertones, just gorgeous. And I like their vanadium yellow for a cool bright yellow.
Sounds like I need to check out the Mars Brown for sure!
@@MirandaWatsonArt I got the Mars Brown because Kim Crick liked it so much!
@@starr-starr she's a good one to listen to!
I wish I could buy your watercolour gift box!!!! Maybe I will be able to a little later.
Giveaway. Love ceramic mixing palettes!
Giveaway!! I love new paint even thou I don’t need more😂😂
giveaway. Fun palette!
Giveaway! I love my Maimeri Blue paints!
I have some of the new reformed Mai Meriblu and the older version. They are like 2 different paints. So different from each other. A rumor is going around that the company uses only ground pigment and Gum Arabic. I don't believe that for one minute. As someone who's studied pigments and watercolor making properties for several years, if that were true, the paint wouldn't flow that fast in water. It would pretty much stay put and lack flow. When you leave Gum Arabic out to dry, it becomes hard as a rock and doesn't rewet well at all. Put powered pigment to Gum Arabic, blend and dry it, you will have a very hard rock that will rewet with difficulty. This is the reason why those who make homemade watercolors, need to add a humectant of some kind, like honey, corn syrup, or vegetable glycerin. Paint companies will often use a synthetic version plus a dispersant ox gall or synthetic version that helps the pigment flow in water.
Hmm, very interesting. I do enjoy the version I have.
I can't wait to get mine! ❤
I think the Grinch might have a MaimeriBlu color for you. I have remained strong and not opened another day. Had to put the bright red box in another room so I wouldn't be tempted.
Ooooh, that sounds like a fun surprise coming! It's so fun having things like that to look forward to. ☺️ Yeah, I would have to put the box away, too!
Hi! As you were squeezing them into the palette I was thinking that the empty spots can be used for custom color mixing and that it was a very nice selection/combination of colors. A lot of thought went into it. And … I CANT WAIT TO OPEN THE FIRST DAY 🎉🎉🎉
For sure and yes, me too!
I'd love to be entered into the Giveaway please. (I'm in the UK though, so don't worry if it'll be too much to include me in it). Those colours are yummy! I have a wee MaiMeriBlu 6 colour dot card with 4 of colours you have. They are yummy in person too! 😊
Your cats are so cute... even when they want posession of your sketch book and pencil! Maybe a kitty artist in the making? 😸
Omg a whole envelope for each day! I didn't expect that 😅 I'm pretty sure everyone will enjoy your box 🥰
The color selection is so interesting! I usually don't care for yellows- sorry 😅, so I'll probably replace the yellow with a red and add a purple to this set 🥰
Hi Miranda, giveaway Those are pretty paints and cute ceramics. I like your paintings. I am going to use my advent art kit in December. I will open one maybe every other day. Depends on if i finish a project or not. I figure i will give myself two days each per advent packet.
Great idea!!
My advent arrived today, I'm so excited!
Yea!
Giveaway sounds wonderful. I am in Australia and have not yet heard or seen these watercolours or the cute porcelain palette. Thanks for the fun video. 😊
GIVEAWAY, these paints are gorgeous and I bought a small set of gouache and that's gorgeous too
GIVEAWAY
I really love Maimeri paints, their indigo is probably my favorite of the natural indigos I have tried, and I use their golden ochre constantly!
I'm excited to try them some more!
love those warm greens :)

Giveaway 😊 I have not tried MeiMeri Blu paints, I really like the payne's grey. I love my khadi fat book!
Giveaway! I'm very interested in these paints, I might have to break down and order a few!
Second!
Giveaway! Thanks for showing us the new paint colors! Trying out new paint is so much fun!
Giveaway… fun little palette.
Giveaway.I'd like to get one ,it's so cute😊
Giveaway! Thank's Miranda!
Hi, MIranda! What a gorgeous little palette! It's something I'd really enjoy, as I love white ceramics of almost any sort, so if your giveaway includes overseas (though I think it'd be way too expensive with postage), I think I'll take a chance, but there's a huge list of ' giveaway ' in the comments here already! (I've only entered one before this, and that was from Vee, and as here, lots of hopefuls, so unsurprisingly, that went to someone else, too)
I love that pretty green the Payne's Grey made with the yellow! It's hard to find that grey-green in watercolour, and the yellow has a beautiful glow to it! I was surprised at how much water the Khadi paper handled, too, and how flat it was when it dried,.
All in all, I had a big smile pretty much all the way though the painting (I was 'just a little bit' worried when you added all that water!).
😊
I was also surprised it handled the water as well as it did - whew! This is such a cute little palette - may luck be with you!
Giveaway- heading out to Jerry’s today, they are having a 30% off sale. I didn’t see these paints on their website but I will find something I have to have there. Thanks for the review.
Giveaway, I love this paint brand.
Additional colours? PR206, PO48, quin gold hue, PY175, PB35, PBk31, PO71, PW6:1, PG50.
Yes!
Oooo new paints are always fun to play with. What a nice giveaway! Thanks for another great video.
I’m not into hello too much, but I love a quin gold…and sometimes a yellow ochre…
Quin. golds are so pretty...
Thanks for swatching these out! I just picked up a few tubes of Maimeri Blu, so good to see how some of the other colors perform. The GIVEAWAY palette looks wonderful, appreciate you doing this for the artists who watch your channel 🧡
First!
Giveaway! I'm enjoying your videos so very much. I'm learning so much. Thank you for going thru watercolor sketchbooks. How do you know if the color is staining?
Some tubes will say if it's a staining paint by a symbol or a letter on the tube. Others you just have to try and lift off the paper and see what happens. After a time you get to know which paints are Isaiah staining and which aren't. Hope that helps!
giveaway,
love your videos, thank you
I have a dot card of Maimeri Blue and they are really lovely paint. As always your painting are stunning. One day i will also buy some ceramic palette but right now my kids will just break them very quickly😂
Giveaway!
Giveaway! Great video btw 😊
Oh my I've been looking at the meeden ceramics, they're on a wishlist of mine for when I can get mobile again, after a prolonged hospital stay smack bang in the middle of inktober following a bad fall, i need some incentives to get back to normal #giveaway
Oh no, I hope you're recovering well. Good luck in the giveaway!
@@MirandaWatsonArt slow and steady, I will get there, and as soon as I'm able to I'll finish Sally and Simons adventures in Mr Giggles dream too.

My box arrived today! I am not sure I can wait until December 1! lol
I'm sure I would have opened the first one already, lol!
giveaway
I always want to try ceramic palette

Thank you!

Italian here - it's pronounced kind of like "my Mary" (exactly, and with the same cadence, as if you were talking about someone called Mary, that was "yours", but using a rolled Italian R ), or something a bit closer to "my merry" (as in "Merry Christmas!", still with a rolled R) depending on what region of Italy you come from (northerners tend to have "tighter"-sounding vowels than southerners) 😊 - it's definitely not pronounced "maymury" or "murmery" or 'my Marie" as I have heard it pronounced countless times (not by you! ). We really appreciate everyone really trying, though - it's not easy to get pronunciation of stuff right, particularly when certain sounds do not exist in English!
Thank you for the pronunciation lesson - I'm sure this will help not only me but everyone in the future who reads this! ❤️
