Thank you for revisiting Holbein! It's really affordable in my country and works beautifully on my watercolor pieces :)
Huge huge congratulations for reaching 30K!!! You are so deserving of it!! It's an honour that you did Holbein for your 30K. I think it's a great idea to test out the same colors on cotton paper, so thank you for doing this. Thank you also for all the shout outs, it is much appreciated.
So glad you re-swatched Holbein paints on cotton paper. Just a note, if anyone wants to see more paintings using Holbein watercolors, Maria Raczynska, also on TH-cam, uses Holbein. Her paintings are worth checking out. Amazon sells what we might commonly call "sampler packs" of 12 or 24 tubes for about $2 to $3 a tube but they are small (5 ml). Prices fluctuate so wait if they are higher than that. If you figure, their M Graham paints or Daniel Smith paints are $10 to $15 a tube for 15 ml, it's not unreasonable but you get what they give you.
YUP! Maria Raczynska is amazing with all of the Holbein products including masking fluid. Ty for the info, Cassie! Love Maria also! Hugz, Tree
I am taking a class from her, and she is terrific!
@@jerrydavis5734 Yes she is. Thanks for the comment!
@@GodzHarleyGirlStudio You ride?
@@jerrydavis5734 I've got all of her classes.
Honestly, Denise, I don't know why you don't have 300,000 subscribers! It's coming, I have no doubt about that. Congratulations, on this accomplishment with many more to come.
Congratulations! I have discovered a lot of watercolor brands through you, and am learning so much with your videos. Looking into joining in your skill share classes as soon as I'm able to!
I lovee these videos! Congrats on 30k though!! That’s so exciting
And yess I would watch the hell out of more redos of these 😂 the sennelier one especially would be awesome to see on arches
Pyrrole probably is pronounced with a short 'i' sound, because of the double 'r', but I'll have to work on that before it sinks in. :-)
I think Holbein's price depends on where you shop. They are close to the same price as Daniel Smith Luminescence line, Sennilier, Schmincke Hordam, and M Graham tubes online via Dick Blick. Amazon was cheaper in most cases. There even for the extra fine, Daniel smith was running around $60 for 6 tubes, and Holbein was around $50 for 18 tubes. I didn't reprice it all, but when I first looked at the Holbein paints awhile back, I could get the equivalent of all 15ml tubes for the Miyazaki palette for less by getting over half the colors on Amazon with the 18 pack having colors I didn't need and filling out the missing colors from DickBlick for about 30% less than just DickBlick alone. (I pretty much have to buy online as our watercolor selection is rarely stocked Winsor and Newton Cotman, Winsor and Newton Professional, Daniel Smith extra fine, and Van Gogh. And when I say rarely stocked, I mean good luck at finding a random 10 colors of paint in each set and only a tube or 2 of those. They tend to be about double the online price. Pat Catan's is a horrible store for art supplies, but it's all we have.)
Which being a palette for Miyazaki can kind of answer what use the brighter, less natural colors have for some.
🎊🎈🎉CONGRATZ, DENISE! 🎉🎈🎊 Holbein is my favorite as well as Arches. I love your super informative video's! Hugz, Tree
So relaxing to watch, calming and soothing while learning ! P.s. Jaune Brillant is pronounced "jown bri an" in French 😁😉 you probably already know it means bright yellow ... which is not ! 😂
Omg I was just making my own watercolor swatch sheet and HOW DID I WROTE CRIMSON LAKE EXACTLY THE SAME TIME YOU MENTIONED CRIMSON LAKE???? 😱😱
Haha, funny when that happens!
Congratulations! Honestly, I don't know what I would do without your swatch vids and it's so thoughtful to do Holbien Over Again for us. This brand is more expensive than I can afford as well but still so relaxing, fun and informative to watch you swatch. Again, thank you for being so generous and helping me choose colors and brands with confidence. Appreciate you so much!
Thank you so much for this. I love Holbein paints, but they seem to get very little love from reviewers. I am glad you revisited these paints--they deserve more attention. I should add that Ms. Kano did not send you many single-pigment paints, and I find that odd. Imidiazole yellows, for example, are lovely, vibrant, single pigment paints and for many of us, are preferable to the multi-pigment mixtures you received.
I believe she sent me what she had at the time, though now she has the full line :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Congrats Denise... just too much multiple pigments for me...
Big congratulations on 30K! Re: the paints, the yellows being basically all mixes is just a total head scratcher for me.
Wowzers!! Congrats Denise! I’m so amazed how you were able to build such wonderful community in such a short time. You’re awesome!
wait...where is jaune brilliant #1 o_o? (I wanted to see how it looked , or hoping you have it)
Well Deserved on 30k followers! When I saw Holbein I was like YAY!!!!
Just wanted to drop a comment... I LOVE your swatching videos. I find your voice so soothing and your info on pigments and general colors is super useful to me since I'm just now taking up dabbling in watercolors since pretty much middle school. I have to relearn everything again and your channel is a gold mine.
Hi Denise, I want ask a question. Is Holbein Quin Red PV19 have same color with DS Quin Rose PV19? Regards. Daniel
Jaaaaay Congrats on your 30 thousand!!
Congratulations on 30K subscribers! And thanks for sharing your very interesting swatch template, love it.
Congrats! :D This was as always very relaxing and great company while exhausted. I honestly dont have a dedicated metallics brush, and I use metallics a lot. I like when the mica contaminates the rest, extra sparkles haha :D I think metallics would look cool on fish! Since theyre also wet and a shiny :D Maybe also some thin layers of metallics on feathers?
Congrats on 30k Denise! And thanks for these awesome swatch videos. Holbein is too expensive for me, but I love m graham and Sennelier(thanks for those swatch videos) As an abstract and fantasy artist, I completely disagree that there is no use for super bright green or obnoxious purple. I use them all the time! Congratulations again!
I've played this video several times now while working on my own art. It's somehow relaxing to hear you talk about the colors and paint and I look over and find new colors I want to add to my collection. Holbein is my personal favorite brand because I like how the watercolors react to water on the page. They're a little tame compared to some other brands but I feel like it gives me more control in an already chaotic medium! =)
I've been tempted to buy Arteza's WC paper for practice. Is your dissatisfaction with it limited to it's poor performance when swatching? Or does it perform poorly overall and I should get some Canson XL WC paper or some other student brand instead?
The colors just tend to dull down a lot, and some look chalky. As you can see here, it's inconsistent though. It also has a MUCH stronger texture. I've painted on it before and been fine with the results, but not blown away. I greatly prefer the Canson XL as a cheap cellulose option.
I haven't tested it yet but a good not cotton paper is the bockingford watercolor paper! It's really good. Obviously it won't beat cotton paper but still pretty good! I did like the canson xl, but they really made the quality of it go down. I have 5 pads and every pad of mine has different paper. With the new ones just pilling much faster and not absorbing the paint at all. Every of my pads had different textures and absorbed the paint differently. The old ones for sure did better!
I'm a bit late, but I think adding some metallics to a snake painting and it's skin would give a pretty cool effect
Congratulations Denise! 🎉🎉🎉😀 It is wonderful to see your channel grow! Thank you so much for all your valuable content! 💛🧡❤💜💙
Omg I love these videos so much :') you deserve all the love and subscribers in the world Denise you're just fantastic and your content is mind blowing
Jeśli ktoś jest z Polski, to akwarele (i gwasze) Holbein pojawiły się właśnie na stronie PaperConcept i w całkiem do przyjęcia cenach (mniejszych niż profesjonalna linia Winsor & Newton)... cud na kiju 😲
Thank you for the free giveaway 😊 I wanted to watch the accompanying video but it's gone 😢
I'm definitely going to have to download that Swatch sheet! It's so cute. Thank you for sharing with us. I'm excited to see the difference between cotton paper and cheaper paper, so I'd definitely be happy to watch a second video on each
Awesome! Congratulations! I've learned a lot from you and your subscription level is due to your dedication and hard work. :D Ummm- your download on patreon is locked? Is it just for Patreon members?
Should be avail now
Oh no! Indeed, I woke up in the middle of the night to finalize the icards and decided just to publish two hours early, but the post was set to unlock at 7am when I usually upload 💜 my apologies.
Got it - thanks. :D
No worries-thanks. :D I mentioned it so you could be on top of it and not have raving fans flooding you-LOL
Andrea G pp
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎤🎤💃🏻
Congrats! You're my favourite TH-cam watercolour and animal educator. Going to become a patron soon and use your Jackson's affiliate link. I also signed up to Skill Share.
Thanks for the swatch template too. 🙂 Might paint some Koi fish sometime soon.
Thank you so much for all of the support Andrea!
Hello there. Do you consider that indigo to be cool or warm?
It's super expensive
I just checked the Holbein Website and found something interesting about the lightfastness ratings. For the Holbein Artists’ Watercolor (tube-form) the lightfastness ratings go from one to two stars but for the Holbein Half Pan Watercolor (individual pans) the lightfastness goes from one to four stars. Although no one of the colors have the 4 stare rating with is supposed to be absolute permanent (not sure how that differs from permanent ).
Interesting! Thanks for sharing. Oto did have some IV ratings on my palette, so maybe she was pulling from the pans?
That was what I was thinking when I notices the lightfastness ratings on the holbein site.
30,000 is the population of Winsford, England. You have a viewership of a small country, you deserving duck! (I was going to say "lucky duck" but I know your channel has very little to do with luck!) MJ and I are still on page one of the video but we wanted to tell you how proud we are of you! xoxoxo
Aww, thank you so much Tiffany!! I hope you and MJ are doing well this morning! Sending lots of love.
Top laughs: Denise: "What do I know? I don't paint landscapes!" / "CRICKET. STOP." / "Thanks, rude motorcyclist."
Hahah! Yay! I'm glad to bring some joy to your day. My misophonia has gotten worse so I think the cat grooming bothers me more than it aught to, lol, but ugh :p Hmmmm, percentages are hard haha! 27% more? I'm glad I gave them a fair shot on the cotton, but at the prices we have here, I just can't say I feel they're worth in. In Japan at their super low prices? Of course! :D
Congratulations on the 30 K
I am watching from my other account, felt I needed a change (previously inder Adela J. with a cat as profile-picture). Before I forget, what is you nail polish, it´s a beautiful color.
I have usually chosen colors because they were pretty and did not think so much about lightfastness- that is something I am starting to pay more attention to. I have actually have a nice collection of Holbein watercolors, I usually by them from a Malaysian store online www.stickerrificstore.com, the people there are super sweet, the prices are not bad at all and you have the option to bye the paints in tubes, pans and sets.
Taxes are usually really expensive in Norway so I do always ask the store to lower the price on the invoice so I can get around paying import tax. They have kindly always done that for me. The delivery can take from a litte over two weeks to a month depending on were I am in the country. Would defiantly recommend ordering from them!
Appreciate the link!!
no problem :3
I have a new appreciation for your ability to swatch colors. I did 60 today (all of my palette and some paints that were gifts) and I can hardly move my arm and my neck is burning. Lol. So thankful for how your research and TH-cam channel has broadened my knowledge of pigments. Thank you again for what you do.
I do get tired by the end and breaks are your friend!!
Good point foxfirepoint ! I have so much troubles with my neck, it kills me to shortens my painting sessions and some days I just can't paint at all ! Denise, I know you're facing chronic pain yourself so you might have some tips on that subject specifically for painters ? If so, that could make a great video sometimes.
CONGRATULATIONS!!🎈🎈🎈🎈
Yayyy, I'm so happy for you! 30K!
Congrats on 30k!
Yay, love u Denise! I’m so happy for u! And after watching you like an addict, I decided on Holbein! Just got my 60 set, but can’t believe how many more colors there are! I’m so excited that ur doing another Holbein, I knew they didn’t “ knock ur socks off”?! But it’s what I could afford! Thank u again!!! Love u Denise! I also live with chronic pain too! So I get it! Always sending prayers! Liz 😊💗❤️
Thank you so much Elizabeth! Congrats on your new paints, and sending you well wishes as well!
Congrats!!!
Do you have any Winsor and Newton paints at all? I could send you over a dot card of the ones I have as tube paints. I have a bunch of the Daler-Rowney Artist colours too.
Aw thank you for offering! I do have about 28 half pans/sample dots here, which is not quite as much as I'd like for one of these types of videos, but am considering maybe a few "mini" episodes for the brands people have been asking for that I don't have a lot of.
@@InLiquidColor I'll drop you a DM over on Instagram with a list of colours I have that I could share, I have all of the Cotman range and nearly all of the Professional range colours but not all currently as actual wet tubes of paint. I have some discontinued and limited edition shades too.
why do you put blur boxes over the colors you have swatched? 16:12
This is more than five years old, but if I had to guess, it was probably because the color balance needed to show the reds accurately made the yellows look inaccurate.
I love this and I know the pain of arteza paper. It makes Canson student look like artist quality cotton sent from the gods.
I live in California but have almost every holbein color in 15ml tubes. Daniel Smith and holbein are my favorites followed by schmincke and then da vinci. I'm not a big fan of W&N and really dislike M Graham (sorry Steve). These videos are so so helpful to distinguish between close hues when you're trying to pick out a color so I'm glad you do them and do watch multiple times. I was watching your class on skillshare but it stopped working (just your class did) but I got through most of it luckily. I'm a big fan of using quin rose or magenta and hansa yellow to make my own reds so I liked that you included both color wheels.
😂😂😂 That first comment is hilarious! That's no good about the Skillshare class! I'm sorry to hear. Did it ever come back up for you? If not, I'd like to contact them. Let me know if you can!
It's okay, I thought maybe you pulled it or something so I've just been watching your videos here:). I just checked and it keeps trying to load with the class jpg showing, then crashes. I can't even see the list of the individual segments.
@@jaimeanderson9238 I'll contact Skillshare and let them know. Would you mind letting me know which browser you're using? Have you tried another? Sorry for all the questions and you don't have to answer but it'd be really helpful!
Hooray for 30k!!! High five lady, you deserve every paint tube by ever maker ever made!
AW, thanks Erin!
In Liquid Color wouldn’t that be a cool idea, get a small group of us 5-8 people get a list of what we have together and figure a list of what we don’t and make a small investment to begin buying tubes and splitting them. I am not rich by any means but I am able to invest a little into getting all the paints by ever brand out there!!! It’s kind of a dream of mine to have the entire collection of every paint available by all the big and small companies.
Wow! Great! From 30K to almost 85K subscribers! Congratulations! You 😊 rock! Thank you!
I am building a 30 color palette. Do you think it is overkill to have both Quin Rose PV19 and Quin magenta PR122? I can’t decide on whether to drop the pr122. I know for sure I’m keeping the rose obviously. They both make similar purples so I don’t think both are necessary but I love the vibrancy and coolness of Quin magenta. Thoughts anyone?
I've noticed that the pigments for your permanent yellow lemon (and other few colours) are not the same that Holbein lists for that colour, PY3, PY74. Is it an older version of the colour or a different brand?
PR209 is great bc it’s a warm red that will still mix purples. I’m trying to think of where it would be good for wildlife … sea life? Flamingos? Um, pink river dolphins?
There are a lot of different burnt sienna’s out there all with the same pigment number, couldn’t quite tell what your take on this brand was in comparison to most others. Looked a little middle of the road, slightly dark but wondered what your take on it was…? More opaque or transparent, then most, orangey or read, etc.…
Thank you for giving another justice for holbein. In my country, holbein is the cheapest artist watercolor (even cheaper than cotman), I am surprised that holbein if so expensive in US and UK. A 12 tube holbein set here's like USD27, and 12 halfpan cotman set like USD25
Well , well. Aren't we popular? lololol My guess is you'll be at 50K by next year because your vids are a BONIFIED MUST SEE!
Hi, request for your suggestion.. Should I invest in a 98 color set of sennelier or 108 tube set of holbien?
Thank you
Congrats on the 30K! Swatching on good paper makes all the difference. I only have a couple of Holbein watercolours, they seem to be, along with W&N and DS the standard watercolour stock they have in chain art stores, here in Montreal. I don't know why Holbein never struck me as a must try paint. When it comes to brands, I sometimes give them character traits: I enjoy M. Graham's vibrancy, Sennelier's delicateness, Daniel Smith's originality, QOR's clarity, and Mijello's in your face character, but Holbein... I still don't know to characterize it. Any particular colours you think would be good brand representatives I should try?
Thanks for this video. It really helps explaining the color breakdown to those of us starting out. I bought the holbein larger set for some under the sea classes and some masha granulating watercolors on etsy that are gorgeous. So when I swatch it will make more sense to me.
I'm trying to put together a ghibli inspired watercolor pallete. Your swatch videos really help and finally knowing that Hayao Miyazaki uses this particular brand helps put the pallete together. Although I'm not sure about the multi pigment composition of most of their color range it's a huge help knowing what the colors look like before I buy them.
In the Philippines, a 5ml tube from Holbein is just 3-4 dollars XD
Edit: Just as cheap as White Nights :pp
p.s. Love that deep mettallic gold! Trying to think of way I can use it with portraits. Maybe for backgrounds. hmm.. I hear you Denise.
The first thing I thought of when you where talking about animals you could use metallic watercolor with, was Dogbane Leaf Beetle (Chrysochus auratus).
Oeh I like the Holbein crimson lake. The pearl copper is pretty too. (I make my own , wondering if what adding ecoline does to that premade mix. That is like over 2 years old and is still shining like no tomorrow. I sometimes use it as an accent in landscapes for morning or evening dew, or fog shimmers,never did a whole painting with them. )
Thanks for this great demo. Can you pleaes recommend the basic color I can use such as Red, Yellow and Blue in Holbein brand?
I've been rewatching this particular video over the past few months again and again.
There is just soooo much info.
Hi Denise! I was waiting to see if Holbein’s peach black was going to be in this lineup… Very interesting color have you seen it before?
Congrats on 30K, Denise! Yes, I for one would LOVE to see the Swatch With Me series extended to include cotton paper. The kind of paper does indeed make such a difference in how watercolors look, act and dry. Hoping to see more of these! 😁😁😁
For a metallic painting idea, draw a crow (with deep purples and hints of green sheen on the feathers) that has gathered shiny jewels.
There's a story out there where a group of crows started bringing this little girl jewelry and trinkets.
You can get a really good Prussian blue hue with pb15 + pv23.
Congrats on 30 k subscribers. Your videos are very informative and inspiring. Thank you for taking the time.👍
yep definitely, love swatching videos as long as they are not live, as live videos have too much wasted time for distracted busy me.
Quinacridone Scarlet Is Quinacridone Red, Quinacridone Red is Quinacridone Rose
As the sender, I can confirm that the small metallics dot card are the Holbein gouache, not the watercolor! I’m glad the little boxes/opacity lines were convenient for you; I was a little nervous that they’d be too difficult to rewet from the dots, but they look fine! I thought I had remembered other people asking about the metallic paints, so I wanted to send them in case they were useful for a review/swatching like this. If it comes up later, the W&N dots are also gouache.
Thank you again Jia! I do really like these paints and may consider picking up a tube or two myself! I was really surprised they rewet nicely after all this time, too!
A 5ml Holbein tube here in the 🇵🇭 costs around 3 usd - 6 usd depending on color.
I personally love holbein and shinhan. I am not s fan of a lot of watercolors but I wish I could afford a huge set of these
Thank you so much for this, not only did you inspire to do the same with my holbein dot cards that I've had for years but you also gave me some good company while I did them
I never thought I was one to enjoy watching paint dry. I'll be damned--I totally do. :D
💕🎉🎊🎆🎈 Congratulations and thank you. Hugs!
I know its not the newest video. but Heck yes more swatch with me's on better paper!!!
Woo well done on reaching 30k 😃💖🎇🎉🎊
This is sooo addictive! I have binge watched a lot of your swatching videos tonight because TH-cam is paying attention and it showed up as recommended after I was looking at Daniel Smith on Amazon. Hmm....
I was wondering, though. Could it be that since the cellulose swatches were done a while back they might have faded or completely cured and that is why there is a difference?
Darn those watching eyes haha. Artist quality materials are generally very lightfast, so the color difference is moreso due to the way the paper absorbs the color. They'd look the same even if I painted the cellulose ones again. (They're also kept in a binder away from light.)
🎉 Congratulations on reaching 30k!
Love your videos and love Holbein as well!
I know this is old but I love going over my favorites. I just had to say that I own a Holbein Permanent Yellow Lemon and there is no PY111 in there. It must be a mistake. Mine says PY3 and PY53.
It's possible the changed formulas, or that an error was made while transposing.
Congratulations Denise! Would love to see a comparison of swatch charts on cotton paper. I was wondering if your review of the Turner watercolor set from Jerry's is still on a waiting list. ☺ I would really enjoy that one. Love the information you provide while describing the properties of the different brands. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Linda! I still have some colors from Turner (not a set but select colors) and they're casually on the list but albeit lower down from some other pressing projects. I think they're good for the price point, but I don't see them as a direct replacement for something like Daniel Smith. They do have some interesting colors (like the mayans) and are affordable, but they don't really excite me. They're perfectly acceptable paints, but I guess I'll put it this way, I've had them for two years but have given away the tubes (just have some half pans left) and they're still on the list for review.
As to doing more of the swatch vids on cotton paper--I'm very interested in Sennelier watercolors because of the way the disperse in water, I'd love to see that swatch video done again on cotton if you get the chance. :) TIA!
It's on the list!
The only way for me to get watercolors / paper is from amazon 😅 there really isn’t art stores in Washington that are worth it because they overprice..or they don’t have what im looking for which is sad.
Jerry's Artarama & Dick Blick both have great prices & sell online & through catalog. Their pricing almost always beats Amazon.
Question? Why haven’t u bought any Cad. Colors?😊
As an environmental educator, I try to do as much as I can to reduce my impact including trying to avoid toxic colors when I can. I also don't usually like opaque colors and really prefer the transparent alternatives that are now available :)
Congratulations and thank you for revisiting Denise! Also, about a year ago I purchased a 24 set of holbein watercolors for $45. I thought it was odd that you said they were so expensive because I got my set so inexpensively. I also live in the US but I just thought that I'd say from my experience they aren't that pricey. This is where I got them, though the set looks somewhat different from when I bought it.
www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000WD3SPO?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title
Hi Lauren, yes in sets they are affordable but you are limited to the section. Open stock they are very expensive.
@@InLiquidColor Ah that makes sense. When I purchased my set a year ago I wasn't looking in open stock at the time cause I was really just trying to expand my watercolor range. And thank you for the response!
Interesting how much less green my DaVinci PB16 Phthalo Turquoise is compared to that 'Marine Green' PB16
It may be the monitor/screen. I tried my hardest to make them as close as possible but it's not perfect. I haven't tried DaVinci's version so I'm not sure myself.
I looked at Jane Blundell's swatches. Unfortunately very few PB16, but I did see a substantial variation. I think your screen is OK :-)
You should do qor watercolors!
It's in the works!
I would love to see more “Swatch with Me” videos where you compare the wood pulp paper to cotton. I’m taking your advice and I’ve started investing in cotton paper. I’ve noticed a difference in working with cotton paper, but I’m not very proficient (or confident) in my handling of the paints on cotton. I’m hoping that will come with more practice.
Congratulations on 30k subs! You deserve it.
I am totally new. Do you have video on how to swatch your colors. Do get the even distribution of color and gradient. What is the best way or format to start since I have few colors. Need a good base line. Thank you. 😚
