    I usually paint old photos of mine, instant nostalgia so just bingeing on your videos. BUT I really want to have a go at this. Some interesting pigments/paints in this. It made me think of Harry Potter with Indigo Dementors swirling about. Thanks.

    I am often asking my grandchildren "what colours do you see in that ploughed field" and we then start to move away from just 'brown'. Looking more closely there are so many more colours if we take time to really look. My grandchildren love doing this, and it makes me happy. Really enjoyed your video, thank you

    I have been so afraid of using darker colors, even for contrast. So this video was great for me. Now I need to start playing again. TFS

    I did a space/nebula scene lately, and the dispersion of the Nickel Azo Yellow and the Cobalt Teal was really fun to play with! I think the Quin Purple dispersed well too, but since it was so dark it didn't have the same dramatic effect.

    I am intrigued after watching your youtube video of a watercolor on black ground. I have painted in acrylics on dark background and really like the play of colors against the dark background. Lately I have been using brusho crystal watercolors. I'd like to try them on the black ground as they burst with bits of contrasting colors. I wonder about using Brusho watercolors with opaque white. Would it be labeled a mixed media piece? Do you call your paintings on black ground watercolors?

    is there any kind of indicator on tubes of watercolor paint that indicates how they flow? I don't want to buy all of the daniel smith paints to experiment with! I know they have the paint daub sheets, but I wondered it anything was on the tubes itself. Thanks!
