    ABOUT ME
    Hi! My name is Margot and I am a professional artist and graphic designer. My parents like to joke that I was born with a paintbrush in hand. I started my career after graduating from the renown Parsons School of Design in New York City and spent over 15 years creating and designing for many of the world's top Fortune 500 brands and companies. My painting journey started as a side project and a creative outlet for me to step away from the computer, go back to my "roots" in fine art and to hone my skills as an illustrator and painter. I started posting some of my work on instagram and the rest is history. My work is inspired by all the things that I am passionate about. Ballet, travel, graphic design, color and finding a world of beauty in all facets of everyday life. I hope you’ll join me in this TH-cam journey as I take you through all the tips, tricks and trade secrets I’ve gathered throughout the years. I hope I can teach you some of what I know, help you discover your creative voice and I hope you enjoy this Channel!

    I just began water coloring a couple of months ago, after wanting to give it a try for over 50 years. I've watched a lot of people's suggestions on types of Palettes and color choices. Very confusing and until now, haven't seen one that would work for me. Thanks a lot for taking the time to make and post this video. It's just what I've been looking for.

  • @RichAdamsFineArt
    @RichAdamsFineArt ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I enjoyed watching you swatch your palette but I believe it might have helped to have you discuss the actual pigment makeup of the paints so that people who don't want to chase down specific brands that you mention could find a matching alternative in other brands. This might be too specific for some folks, but for other watercolor artists, we mostly understand pigments rather than cosmetic names that brands come up with for their paint formulations. Just a thought.

    • @Pointebrush
      @Pointebrush  ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Thanks Rich! I get where you’re coming from and tbh it’s something I wrestled with when starting my channel. I want to give helpful information for artists while also not being intimidating to new watercolorist. What do you think of a middle ground and listing the pigment info in the description for those interested in a deep dive?
      Also I feel like not all pigments are created equal so taking PV19 for example, there can be a wide difference on how this appears across brands from magenta to hot pink, to rosey depending on the provenance of the pigment, the binding agents and recipe of the paint and so it’s not necessarily a simple substitution. Listing the pigment can sometimes cause someone to gloss over the color because of a false sense of already owning it based on the pigment number. Your thoughts?

    • @tdelphia1
      @tdelphia1 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@PointebrushI have been having the same thought as Rich. I always like to know pigments. Often itmis not so much about “do I haventhat pigment already?” as knowing what are single pigment vs convenience colors. Eg. give me a nice PB60 any day over an indigo that mixes a black pigment with pb60. And sometimes, knowing pigments helps identify ways to create a better mixing collection of paints. A great example for me is that I constantly wrestle with having nickle azo yello (py150) AND quin burnt orange (PO 48) on my palette, vs just keeping DS quin gold which is a mix of the two. SO MANY DS convenience greens use both along with a blue so do I want a shortcut to 3 pigment greens? or complete control? (usually I keep both 150 and 48 separately, but….. ;-) I think providing pigments helps new painters gradually learn about the difference between hues and “real” paints. Sometimes new painters don’t understand why their craft store paints don’t mix or paint the way they expected, and that’s because they’re focused on names instead of pigments. And for the truly pigment geekie people, there is always handprint! www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/waterfs.html )

    This is a beautiful selection of colors. ❤️
    You've mentioned a few times that you're not impressed by Sennelier and I wonder if that's based on the way you use paints. Sennelier is designed to be layered up slowly. It's so beautiful and luminescent when it's layered up, and the colors become more complex. It's difficult to overwork. They're my favorites, but I prefer that meditative process of working in slow layers.

    • @Pointebrush
      @Pointebrush  2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Thank you! And I think you’re definitely on to something with the way I use my watercolors. I think that as far as brands go, at this pro grade level of paint, they’re all terrific in quality but it’s more about finding the right fit for the artist using it. As for me, I’ve been moving into a more expressive and gestural direction as of late and I find that Senneliers impede my ability to be more spontaneous which I find frustrating. But you’re right, they’re phenomenal for intricate layering and glazing with their buttery and blendable qualities 👍

    • @renee1292
      @renee1292 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I like Sennelier also, especially as I'm a botanical painter and glazing is essential. Winsor and Newton and Daniel Smith are my next favorites.

    Howdy Margot,
    Just to let you know, you can use a glue stick applied and wiped over with a wet tissue afterwards, to a new palette, regardless of type of surface, it prevents staining, and beading.
    In kindred spirit,

    😆😉😊
    PS: The Aussie Red gold is pronounced here with the z sound, so "Auzzie" We say Australian, with the s, just to confuse you. This paint was first named this for an oil paint by Art Spectrum, a brand here, that came out in the early 90's which started with yellow thinned as a glaze, and ended at orangey kind of sienna in full strength. I can't think of anything natural that would use this, around in Sydney, but I looked it up, and it is the sunny ochre cliffs in a sunset, I think it is like an angophora tree trunk bark, or the cedar trees in red gold along the East coast of Australia.....

    • @Pointebrush
      @Pointebrush  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Eliza! Thank you so much for your message and I never thought about it but you're right and Auzzie it shall be from now on 😋 I love your description of the Australian landscape and how it connects to this color. It's been a long time since I've visited Australia and I think I might get caught in a daydream next time I use this beautiful color!
      And you must have read my mind, because I'm currently wrapping up a video with that glue stick trick (as well as another trick I have up to sleeve that may pique your interest). Stay tuned!! 😘

    @Renilou2 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I do love Winser & Newton brand and have lots of them. I have Holbein also along with lots of Daniel Smith and Schmincke. Always looking for my own ultimate palette! The Holbein Bright Rose is not a permanent color either since it contains a florescent dye. Many brands don't even list the florescent dye in it but you can see it glow in the dark using a black light flashlight. I know that if you work in a different way not having to frame your work it wont matter. Your work is so lovely! Thanks for sharing your pigments. PR112 is one of my favorite reds. I have it in M Graham brand.

    • @Pointebrush
      @Pointebrush  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much and love your insight! You’re totally right about the bright rose and definitely if fugitive colors make you nervous, steer clear! 😂 Interesting you mention PR112 because I’m currently on a quest of hunting down the best PR112 that I like the most so thank you for the recommendation! I’ll take a look at M Graham’s! Thanks for watching Renee!

    • @Renilou2
      @Renilou2 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Pointebrush You are welcome. I'm a portrait artist, mostly for infants and those works get framed and hung on the wall, so I cannot use fugitive pigments for that. But all else, I have no problem. There are a couple fluorescents that last the longest if anyone is interested. When the florescent dye fades it leaves the beautiful pink of PR122 and that is Holbein Opera & Winser & Newton Opera Rose. For some reason the other brands have very little PR122 in and they fade totally. Those two brand do not.

    • @Pointebrush
      @Pointebrush  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Good catch! Can’t believe I missed that!! I use them interchangeably HOWEVER I will say that (when used in darker, more pigmented instances) W&N’s Quin Magenta is more saturated and bright whereas the Daniel Smith has a deeper, more jewel toned quality to it. Hope that helps and thanks for watching! 😘

    I recommend leaf green. Holbein. Happy green with pink flowers I use it even more than sap. Grumbacher has the best shade IMO but I think they are a lower quality paint so I switched to Holbein.
    Bright cheerful paintings with foliage must have leaf green! No? 😊

    • @Pointebrush

      Yes! And Holbein generally does a terrific job of packing a punch as far as saturation goes!

      Thank you so much! And the mauve is interesting because I actually like my skintones to be textural sometimes. Think freckles, sun spots or imperfections which can be quite charming
