Heck YES, I'm always happy to see people talk about Van Gogh watercolours :D I've been using these paints for over half a year. Out of all cheaper brands I've tried so far, this is the only one that doesn't show the shiny residue after drying. They even stack up well against some of the professional brands. They rewet instantly and paint out super smoothly, they also have some of my top favourite colours - their Rose, Turquoise Green & Davy's Grey are top notch in my opinion! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who has a soft spot for good ol' Van Goghs :)
i couldn't decide between van gogh and winsor & newton sets and then i chose van gogh, i'm using it for a while and very satisfied about this set. i love how vibrant and saturated colours they have.
Definitely like this 15 colour set better than the 12 colour one (I grew up with 12 colour opaque watercolour sets in my school art classes, so I'm always weirded out when transparent sets lack magenta and cyan. I know I can mix pinks with a lot of water+ a bluish red, but mixing feels so much easier when magenta and cyan are included, as well) I got the original 12 colour set and the muted colour one and I love those, but when my sis thought about getting water colours for herself, I treated her to this one and it'll also be the one I recommend for other beginners, too
VanGogh is one of the brands I started out with in my watercolor journey. I still love their naples yellow reddish, and have it in my main palette still to this day. I like the looks of this set. It feels a little closer to what we seem to look for in a good range minus the white. I would take that out and replace it with a payne's grey, or Turquoise light or something to round out the colors. Great review and cute painting!
I love my Van Gogh paints, especially how fast they rewet and how creamy they are. You're definitely right about them being the best of the student grade paints. I don't have this particular set, but maybe I need it! :D
I really wanted to start watercolour and I found your video, it helped me a lot because I couldn’t decide which palette to choose... there are so many! It’s a very nice and helpful video!! thank you
I've been watching your reviews as much to see the cute cats you paint as much as what you review, but I appreciate your reviewing Van Gogh watercolors as I have a few tubes (love them!) snd am curious about their pans. sets.
I love that van gogh has a lighfast chart available for all it's colors, só you can even sell your art with this brand without problems, and whitout necessarily buying a professional set. Another good brand is white nights because, despite being professional watercolors, are very affordable for their category...
It reminds me of the Pablo's Choice watercolor set of 24 paints which no longer seems available. I really like the Pablo's Choice set for coloring books and travel as it has a similar palette, to the Van Gogh set, and came with a water brush, regular brush, and sponge plus the 9 extra colors. I don't know if it had a similar price, as I bought my sets in 2017, but I bought 5 sets so it must have been a very good buy like the Van Gogh set is now.
@@EveBolt It's a challenge to come up with a set to recommend to beginners. You have discovered one that should work exceedingly well. For any level of expertise, this Van Gogh set would make a fine companion for painting in a journal. If only I needed another kit...
The chart showing the layering is fantastic, Eve! Thank you for all of your work. I can think of several brands that would be greatly highlighted/ better represented by similar demonstrations. I hope you and your loved ones are safe and well.
Thank you so much! They take a lot of time to setup and paint, so I'm glad they are helpful! I'll see about making them a more common part of my reviews! So far, everyone here is doing good, I hope you and yours are safe as well!
I very much like the bee paper postcards. My fav of all out there. The new etcher is nice but to light weight. I mail a good number of cards each year.
I was wondering what was going on with the company, that's good to know. I do have some other paper in my cart for blick to try out when I run out of the bee cotton paper, such as the Shizen Professional Watercolor Paper - 5'' x 7'', Cold Press, Pkg of 50 Sheets which retails for about USD 14.50 as of march 6th and I'm considering the Strathmore 500 7 x 5 ready cut watercolor paper when it comes back in stock.
Oh yay, your timing is perfect - this video is basically my bedtime story for tonight 😂 I was really interested in this set for a while, mainly for the mixing spaces. I ended up getting the 14 color Kuretake set instead, and I'm quite happy with it. There's definitely less paint in my pans than in this Van Gogh set, but I don't mind - I'll keep using the palette long after I've run out of the original paints. I think the Van Gogh palette looks larger? Idk. I'm very happy with my Kuretake set, but if I hadn't been able to get that I think I would've been perfectly happy with this one. Not the 12 color set, though - it REALLY annoys me that they have that massive wasted space for their logo 😅
The Kuretake 14 colors set is one of my favorite boxes, I love how compact it is and it has the right number of mixing sections XD What I love of the Van Gogh box is that I can pop off the mixing tray if I need more space!! :D Good night! ♥
I think the Van Gogh paints are much nicer than the Kuretake ones, but I really really like the Kuretake box as their Zig waterbrush is my favourite since I started to use waterbrushes and you also can store a fineliner and a small pencil and you are good to go.
@@anjakritzelkram5544 I've never tried Van Gogh, so I don't know what I'm missing 😉 the Kuretake pans were really not very full, at least in my set, so I think I'll go through them relatively fast. I'll keep the palette long after the original paints are gone though, I love it way more than I thought I could like a plastic palette at all! It's compact, lightweight, has the fourteen pans + space for pens and brushes or sticking down extra pans (though I think fourteen should generally be more than enough for me)... And the mixing spaces, they're my favourite part - large enough to be useful, but small enough that you get far more than any comparably sized travel palette I've seen. Four large, three medium, and two small mixing wells, now every other palette I look at feels inadequate - I'm already so used to having dedicated spaces for all my secondary and tertiary colors, I get annoyed with less 😂 I haven't tried the water brush yet. I tried one Pentel one and kind of noped out, I disliked it so much that it feels unnecessary to "start" another one - I'll be painting from home anyway, I'm quite happy with regular old brushes for now. Hopefully one day I'll get the hang of them, they seem awfully practical!
I was one of the fortunate souls who received their entire line to review. One of my fave features of their boxes is the ability to use a big brush. Also, the catch tab on the closure can be gently pulled out a little if the box isn't shutting securely.
It looks a really useful set. I met an artist in southern Spain who uses Van Gogh for all his watercolour paintings. The only thing that I'm not keen on is the amount of brighteners used in Talens watercolours. I suppose they're catering to the current trend for ultra bright colours. I've read somewhere that all the colours in the Van Gogh range are light fast so that has to be a big thumbs up that probably outweighs any negatives. The box and brush look great too.
Ooo, where did you see it mentioned that Talens use brighteners in their paints? For the Van Gogh range, I've always found the colors true to their pigments :)
I always recommend this set to beginners, it was my first love and I'll always think it's really good value. Definetly better than cotman, in my opinion.
This is a nice set, I just bought it, I swapped out the yellow ochre for a lavender and might swap the white. My paint brush was damaged tho which is disappointing.
Nice! The three new paints are a good add. And it seems the brush doesn't keep falling apart while you're painting with it. That's REALLY nice, because it did in my other sets :(
Hi Gwen! Thank you so much! :) They are a bit of a hidden gem brand, easy to dismiss but actually quite affordable and very nice paints. The tubes are about 5$ (in CAD) so it's not too much of a tough decision to get a color or two to try!
About the paper I know your in Quebec, I'm in Ontario if you have a Michael's I use a 40% off coupon and they carry bee 140lb 100% cotton paper. You can also do online and get it shipped I think it's 20.00$ that I pay here in Ontario its the same pack they have on amazon and same price. I hope this helps xoxo
I usually get it from Amazon, but it's out of stock. It's been out of stock on many other websites too, so I hope this is just a temporary issue and not a sign that this product is discontinued 😭
@@EveBolt oh my goodness I hope it's not discontinued I use it as my swatch paper and for whenever I want to play or test pigments for a painting. It's so cheap so I love playing on it, but definetly try Michael's I used to get mine on amazon too. Oh gosh I so hope they keep making it!
Ik this video is old, but does your prussian blue have trouble rewetting/reactivating in comparison to the other pans? Mine is, and not only that but its almost kinda of grainy while mixing it on the palette, I wonder if this is a general behaviour of the pigment or if mine is defective. Other colours are so creamy, rewet so easily while to this day the prussian blue pan looks flat 😅
Mine was fine back then (I no longer have this palette so I can't check... oops). Have you tried reaching out to Talens/Van Gogh about this? Apparently, you're not the only person dealing with this issue...
I'm new to watercolors and I just got this set in my hands! What other colors would you suggest, to add for a landscape palette. I like to draw forests and beaches. I got a couple of greens extra and the Olive Green is WAY more beautiful in person! I'm not so exited with browns though!
If you have many greens already, you can make your own browns by mixing them with the reds and oranges on your palette. That might help you find a brown you really love :)
I was wondering- can you hide something small under the removable palette? like a few sheets of paper or a pencil? I'm kind of looking into getting this one as a travel/pocket palette as I know and love the paints ^^
Thank you eve for this video!! After wandering arround searching what watercolor set should i get, i finally made my choice and ended up with van gogh. It arrived today and i immediately do the swatch test, i love it♡♡. It definitely the best birthday gift
Which do you think is better for a beginner? The Van Gogh, the Aquafine Mini by Daler Rowney, or the Cotman? The Cotmans costs about double the price though :(
@@EveBolt That settles it, then! I already just bought the Aquafine cold press paper, might as well pair it with Aquafine paints. Thank you, liked and subbed deservedly
I'm in doubt about which watercolor to buy, Van Gogh or Cotman. Some people say that Van Gogh are chalky and some say Cotman are not vibrant or pigmented. What do you think?
Van Gogh paints are not chalky at all. I really don't like the Cotman pans, I find them very lacking in intensity. I would definitely recommend the Van Gogh colors. If you want the most transparency, try to find ones that don't have any opaque pigments in them, like the whites (PW4 and PW6)
Nice! How do you like the prussian blue? It's the one that seems to show the least amount of fading on Handprint.com, so I'm really curious about it. ☺️
i like these watercolor they look better then the normal watercolor in plastic boxes that are 12 color in 4$ but the problem i cannot find like these in stores here in lebanon and i cannot buy from the internet because they cheat people with different things other then we order
Yes, I would! The set has a nice magenta in the quin. rose color and a nice cyan in the cerulean blue (phthalo) color. I think it could do with a violet though, something like dioxazine violet (pv23). Or maybe a teal if that's a color that appeals to you. If you have a favorite color that's not in the selection yet, that can be a good option!
Bee paper is getting harder to find. I accidentally stumbled on a pack at a Michaels in their clearance section. I have used www.amazon.ca/Strathmore-140-Pound-25-Sheet-Pressed-Watercolor/dp/B004WFUGIA as an affordable substitute even though I am not too fond of Strathmore.
Bee paper should be back! It would seem this is a temporary situation. I use the ready-cut Strathmore sheets and I love them! I know a lot of people are not too fond of this paper but I like it :3
You should contact Bee Paper directly and tell them what's going on. I'll bet they'd send you more paper since you use it in your videos. You might offer to mention the brand in vids and link to where to get it. Bon chance Raisin Hater!
Haha! XD I wrote to them, following your suggestion, and they replied super fast! They are transitioning (I think Bee was purchased and now belongs to the same brand as Pentalic..?) and the paper will be back in stock as soon as they start producing it again. PHEW XD

That sounds really unpleasant :(
I hope you can find an affordable brand of paint that is also fun to use!
Buy them from Turkey, ik a lot of people in Lebanon do online shopping from Turkey but idk if its because its cheaper or because its just available
Would you recommend to swept out the white for magenta, cyan or another color?
Yes, I would! The set has a nice magenta in the quin. rose color and a nice cyan in the cerulean blue (phthalo) color. I think it could do with a violet though, something like dioxazine violet (pv23). Or maybe a teal if that's a color that appeals to you. If you have a favorite color that's not in the selection yet, that can be a good option!
Is that artist grade?
Van Gogh is Talens' student range. Rembrandt is their pro watercolor range.
Do these pop out and you can put in a empty pallet
Out with the white and in with a violet. Honestly, there should be a law against putting white or black pan colors in sets!
