I think my favorite is the opera pink and ult blue....but truly all were gorgeous!! I have a couple of the Daniel Smith, but otherwise just W&N cotman ... best I can afford right now :/ so I'm not sure, to be honest, how many are granulation ones of or not. I'll have to look back at my swatches. I mostly have just the basics to mix whatever. I love mixing colors, its so fun!! I become mesmerized just watching the paints dance around and I love adding blooms and such for texture as I like texture and a more messy look in my work But, I'm just an older lady whose been teaching herself the last several years and fallen in love with all types of art so much. My body is a mess, so I can't practice as much as I'd like, but I truly appreciate you and so many other awesome artists that work so hard to pu out these beautiful videos because they help keep me excited and inspired and focused on the beauty around me and not the awfulness I live with daily in this body.. So I appreciate it very much! All were so beautiful!! :) I subscribed and look forward to seeing more :) Thank you again!!
It's lovely to have you as a viewer and I'm so very happy my videos can bring you joy. Let me know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see a video on
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 thanks so much!!! Once i binge watch tons of your videos then I'll see if there's anything else I'd like to see, but you seem to have loads of awesome videos so you probably cover it all :) Thanks again!!!
I am so 😊 glad I found you!! I really love to see the magic that happens when paints are mixed together to make a brand new magical color together! So lovely 😍 so I had to subscribe!! So thank you and stay safe and God bless all of us artist! ☺👋👍🙏💖😃
The number one thing I dislike about Daniel Smith brand is the dishonesty about what's in the paint. Opera Pink actually has more BV10 (florescent dye) in the tube than PR122. They aren't even listing that there's mostly florescent dye in it! This is obvious because it fades so badly and glows under a black light. PR122 has very good lightfastness so if it had more in the tube it would hold up.. Holbein's Opera has more PR122 than the BV10 and thats why it fades only a little because its the florescent dye fading. When the dye vanishes the PR122 is left and is a soft beautiful pink left. Not fading hardly at all but changing hue. Daniel Smiths Opera Pink simply disappears.
It does mention 'fluorescent' on the label but nothing about amounts. I'm all for honesty about products but unless I'm working on a piece I want to hang I don't mind the light fastness.
I have just come across your account and watched 3 videos right away. I think I have picked up more information on colour in those three than I have in the hundreds of art videos I have seen before them. Thank you for the close up and detailed description, your videos are pitched just right 👌 I was at my local art store a few weeks ago and not sure which Daniel Smith colours to try because it was all a bit overwhelming.... I am now going to use your videos to make a shortlist of the ones I will buy the next time I am there. Thanks again! 🙌🙌 (liked and subbed) 😊
LOVE your channel; you made me adore granulation. I've a question; whenever you say "you have to dilute it a lot", what you're actually doing it having plain water on your brush (no pigment) and kinda "adding" it to the wash? Or am I confusing it completely? 🤔 haha. I see you doing it everytime and I need to now! Also, what brush do you use in this vid?
thank you soo soo much! Yes, you are correct, when I dilute the paint I will add more water to the wash using my brush. In this video I used the 'Raphaël Kolinsky France 6, 8403'. Hope this helps, sorry for the delay.
I’ll stick with the Imperial purple. Opera pink is beguiling but useless as I don’t keep my paintings in a dark drawer. Disappointing when you tubers don’t tell how bad it is; Daniel Smith does say its rating is poor.
Yes the punch of the color fades quick as it is a neon color, so the lightfast rating is poor. To some artists this is a problem since, like you stated, they prefer to display their work. Others don't mind so much as they prefer to work in (watercolor)sketchbooks where the painting won't be exposed to light.
I have tried a variety but did jot get the desired effect. So now I'm still in the stage of trying to figure out how to work with it as best I can or determining that it's a bust..

Oh my 😱 That Rose of Ultramarine & Tundra Violet is sooooo gorgeous - drool 🤤
Love the opera/Ultramarine combo - Yves Klein Blue vibes. Try Caput Mortuum Violet and Phthalo Turquoise. A stunning combo.
So Schmincke super-granulating (Tundra) like Daniel Smith fines. Awesome mixtures.
Super interesting. I wasn't expecting the mix of the last two to be so stunning but my goodness did it knock my socks off.
Thanks Simone! Happy I could surprise you today with pretty paint colors. 🤗

That's so nice to hear CSYT :) have fun building a collection of pretty paints that suit you and your art style.
Fun video. Thanks!
Happy to hear :))
Very helpful. Thanks!!
With pleasure 🤗

Guess: neon purple!

do you ever use granulating medium
I have tried a variety but did jot get the desired effect. So now I'm still in the stage of trying to figure out how to work with it as best I can or determining that it's a bust..
I see her using granulation medium, but she never mentions it. I would really like to know what her mixtures look like without it.
Hey Candace, I didn't use any granulation medium for these mixes. These are just the paints and some water.
