      When it comes to light fastness are these paints reliable? I see that they use 1,2 and 3 star ratings but what does this calculate in terms of years?

    You probably won’t see this but if you’re trying to get rid of your toxic colors and the reason you won’t add cobalt to your pallet cerulean blue is made with a cobalt pigment, unless mai mary blue doesn’t use the cobalt pigment for their cerulean and they use a mix to get the hue of the color

The dye is made from a plant so it shouldn't be dangerous like cadmium. Quinacridone Burnt Orange has been discontinued, which we've found several colors you can mix that is so stinking close too.

    In my research on this subject I found that nearly all warnings about the toxicity of watercolors relates to “ inhalation or ingestion” of the medium. Unless you are extremely careless in working with watercolors, i. e., eating a sandwich with paint on your hands, it is highly unlikely to be harmful. Inhaling a liquid is not even a worry. However, I personally would not work with powdered pigments without a mask.

    Your palette is beautiful but there are a few facts we need to get straight.
    First of all.. Gum Arabic made out of sand? Where did you get that from? We can agree that it's totally from a natural source, which is really the essence here, but let's please agree that there's no sand involved.
    You mention that you left out Phthalo Blue because it's toxic. To the best of my knowledge, this is not true. However, you do use Cerulean Sky Blue, which is PB35 which is a cobalt pigment and therefore toxic.
    Other than that I really enjoyed the video. The brand is new to me but seems like something I need to take a closer look at. Thanks for introducing the brand to me. :)

      @@JennaRaineyChannel gum arabic is the sap from certain trees. there are definitely synthetic ones however you absolutely cannot make sand into something different. you can melt it and make glass, or use it in many other ways like as an additive, but you cannot change one thing to a totally new thing.
      perhaps there was a translation or communication mistake/misunderstanding? i know you really always do your best to give accurate info! I'm hoping you can ask them to clarify since people seem interested.
      and if they are doing some kind of high tech science to somehow turn sand into a substitue for the gum arabic, that would surely involve a high amount of chemicals!

    • @alnla3308
      @alnla3308 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I know that gum arabic is water soluble and I know that sand is insoluble. They are two different things and one is not made from the other. I checked the Maimeri website and they list gum arabic and pigment as the only ingredients in their paints. Powdered pigments can appear somewhat "sandy" before they are milled to a fine mesh size, and they are insoluble so guessing that is what is meant? I do not know! The only connection between gum arabic and sand that I found while researching online is that the two are used to create a composite binder in core production for moulds and in metallurgy.
      Love this video and the one with the swatching too.
      On a funny note, I am picking up Jenna's pronunciation of Quinacridone from hearing her attempt to say it in her "italian" accent and now I have to think twice to say it the right way!
      I am drooling over that paint like crazy!!!

    • @Renilou2
      @Renilou2 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Just want to say that in the past, Maimeri Blue has not always been forthcoming about the truth of their paint. I've been using many brands of watercolor for a lot of years, studied pigments their codes where they come from and how watercolor is made and what simply will not work and what does. People who hand make their own know that gum arabic and pigment alone does not work well. Which is why a humectant like glycerin, or honey or corn syrup is used. The more gum arabic used the slower the flow of pigment dispersion in water and its also extremely hard to rewet once dry. Ox gall or synthetic version, or the absence of Gum Arabic for a synthetic version like Aquazol makes it flow quickly when touched with water. Maimeri watercolor paint simply explodes when the paint touches the water that tells me its not just gum arabic and pigment. I'm 70 now and according to lab paint annalists, Maimeri Blu's claims do not add up as usual. Also the fact that my new PB36 creates bubbles! I'm not the only one this is happening to. That should tell you there is a dispersant of some kind added. Gum arabic doesn't turn soapy when water is added. However, their new formula is better than the last one.

    • @mald379
      @mald379 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Hey, I'm no Jenna but I think i can help :) Try remembering that the hottest of colours will probably be orange/orange leaning red and the coolest color will be blue/blue leaning turquoise. Then look at the color you got (for example yellow) and where it would be on the colour wheel comparing to those two reference points. If the yellow is closer to it's Orange neighbour - it will be warm yellow. If instead it looks like it's closer to green hue - it will be cool yellow. Same with purple - if it's closer in neighbourhood with red - that means it's warm, if it's closer to blue - it's cool. If blue you have is straying away from it's turquise/greenshish tones then it will be warm blue. Cool red on the other hand will be straying away from orange - towards purple and pinks. I hope it helps!

      It’s a word to describe the lasting strength of the colour. so in direct sunlight, fugitive colours will fade over time in direct sunlight, and sometimes the colour will disappear completely, depending on the level of fugitive. They are not bad paints , they are merely not ideal for original work you intend to sell, because the artwork is most likely to be displayed, and you want the painting to last if you intend to sell it. If it’s for sketchbook use or for scanning and making prints, then it is fine.

      I too would love to know more about this. I'm guessing it's made from sap that drips from the acacia trees onto the sand beneath, and the sand gathered to collect the sap. Acacia trees are quite valuable, not only for commercial purposes, but also as an important environmental force in keeping the habitat from becoming pure desert. So if one can collect the sap without harming the trees, that sounds like a good thing.

      Maimeri blue has their own synthetic oxgall which you can buy in separate bottles, so it might be that they are using?

    How do you store unused paints that are on your pallet? I may have missed you saying 😕

      a bonus of watercolour paint is that you let the paints dry on your palette before using, and the reactivate it with water. You will save a lot of paint by letting them dry first (usually about 24hrs) instead of using them wet right out of the tube. You can continually use the paint on your palette by adding water and letting dry between sessions, until you have used up your whole pile of pigment. Just squeeze out a new dab, let dry and start again!

    Beautiful palette! I arrange my colors the same way. 🙂 Hey, if you decide to sell off your Winsor & Newton, I know a young, budding artist who would love to buy them from you!

    You should really learn about pigments and not names.. transparent yellow is made from nickel and is toxic and cerulian blue is made from cobalt. Maimeriblu colours is made from single pigments and not like several pigments mixed together. Typically all proffesional colours are made from pigments and gum arabic and sometimes honey, oxgall and glycerin. I have no idea what blending agents you talked about, cheap paint usually have fillers but not proffesional paints.

    Unfortunately I cannot afford the ceramic pallet $$$$ at the level of beginner. I hope to get the paints a few at a time first. Thank you for your videos you are a great encouragement

      You can use a plastic deviled egg platter from Dollar Tree at Easter Time. Just rub with toothpaste and wash it off and dry it before adding the paint. Also, white ceramic dishes such as platters and paints were great for palettes.

    Did Maimeri-blu send you all 90?!!! I just discovered these a few weeks ago, and haven't had a moment to open them. I bought about 15.
    Regarding the beading - on metal palettes, a Magic Eraser helps. Might do the same on plastic.

      Studio Six in Toronto, Ontario carries Maimeri Blu watercolour. They used to have a brick & mortar store but are now exclusively online.

    I’m really surprised that your favorite color is the Green Gold as it is made with Copper (heavy metal that comes with a toxic warning ⚠️ label, at least the tube I got of this brand came with one). It is definitely a wonderful color & my favorite.

    This palette is over $600. bucks. If you can afford that and undisturbed by the speckled finish, go for it.
