I love these colors. I think it would be cool if you could do a quick little painting with these colors. Even showing after what you've painted with this palette.
Margot, ifyou're interested, I think that Aussie Red Gold might be inspired by the beautiful desert rock formation Uluru, which is a site that is sacred to the Pitjantjatjara tribe! It's considered one of Australia's most important and famous indigenous sites, surrounded by ancient paintings and caves. I can see why it would inspire this shade, the desert there is so fiery red and gold in addition to the Earthy undertones! Either way, Australia is primarily desert, so this is appropriately outback-inspired!
I’m from Western Australia and the Jean Haines master set was one of my first Daniel Smith purchases, the Aussie Red Gold surely is aptly named as the soil in Northern western Australia and the Red Centre ( Northern Territory) can be exactly this hue, along with transparent red oxide and Geothite. I now have many Daniel Smith paints as I love the sets they do. Thankyou for a pleasant video show casing their beauty.
I love all these colors, too, I've been using most of them for many years, but your vibrant descriptions were so fun and beautiful that I want to get them out again and play!
Yay! I'm so glad! Sometimes looking at what you already have with a fresh perspective can lead to all sorts of new possibilities. Art after all, is all about unique perspectives so maybe that starts with art supplies too! 😜
I am a beginner and when I saw these paints I thought to myself the very same thing that this would be good for a beginner…so thanks to your review here ! I got them ! Thank you 😊
I just purchased my first DS tubes of paint, I can't wait until they get here! I am fairly new to watercolor and I love color!! I know I don't need them, but I seem to have a problem buying all of the pinks and purples that I see and love, when I know I can just mix colors myself! LOL I've learned a lot from you, thank you for your videos!
Hi Lori! I'm so excited for you!! New goodies = a world of new possibilities! Did you end up getting individual tubes or a set?? Let me know how it goes!!
@@Pointebrush thank you for responding! I got separate tubes from DS and WN. They were supposed to be here today, but they aren't. 😔 I will have lots of fun painting flowers! I love your ballerinas, they are amazing!
I love how you do your swatching and how you described each color! These are all lovely colors and I was pleased to see that I already have some of them.I'll definitely be ordering some of the ones I'm missing. :)
The colors are rich and beautiful esp the opera, magenta, and imperial purple, but they seem best suited to flowers, summer light fabrics, interior accents in a home, and assorted mixtures. Maybe you could show us how you've used them in your work, for inspiration?
Have you ever covered Mission Gold Watercolors or have an opinion on them? I first started out with them and realized the colors are very vibrant. I just wondered what a professional's opinion would be on the 24 piece set and if it's okay to continue practicing with them.
It is the preference of the artist and what she uses in her paintings! Of all the colors I do use the undersea green the least. So I get what you mean! (But it's her curation)
Cascade green I think is very particular. It's a combination of PBr7 and PB15 which is more of a blend between brown oxide and phtalo blue than the coolness of a cerulean. Green apatite on the other hand does something quite interesting in the granulation which a more classic mix wouldn't have. I suppose it depends on what you end up using the greens for and their presence in your painting. Either way, it's always fun to compare and contrast what each has to offer 😉 Happy Painting!!
I’m Australian and Aussie red gold really does remind me of the outback not that I’ve really been there lol but it also reminds me of Texas from what I’ve seen on movies and stuff ..
True! I realize I forgot to make a note of that. Personally, I don't steer clear of less lightfast colors if I'm working with a reputable brand because most of my work gets scanned and goes digital for reproduction but it is an entirely personal choice for sure!
DS are my favorite colors !! I have many of them, and almost 5 from this palette😉 Aussie Red may be a good alternative for an orange, I m searching for a transparent bright and light orange, your advice ( and all advices) will be welcome I have DS pyrrol orange and permanent orange, but I find them a bit opaque even permanent orange, may be to much intense !!!. Glad to have found, and subscribe to your Channel 🙏🙂
Hi Nathalie! Thank you for your message and welcome!! Different brand but have you ever tried Winsor & Newton's Winsor Orange? That's another one of my all time favorites!
@@Pointebrush Hi margot, ( Margot is a french name , I m french😉! ) I have some WN colors, but I didn t thought about them for an Orange. Thank you for this good idea !!
Hi Kathy! They are *somewhat* similar, I agree. Green Apatite has a little more yellow to it whereas Undersea green has a murkier, earthy/brown undertone to it. Hope that helps!!
@@kathyhackney7950 I do agree with you! However (and weirdly so), in practice, I feel like they fulfill quite different roles. I see green apatite as being.a substitute for a sap green whereas undersea green allows you to play with more earthy notes (like a green-ey raw umber or something).
I love these colors. I think it would be cool if you could do a quick little painting with these colors. Even showing after what you've painted with this palette.
I have just discovered DS and love them. This is on my list. Thank you ❤
Those are beautiful colours. I would love to see more ballerina painting tutorials.
Absolutely! I’ll plan on doing some slightly more advanced ones soon!

Thank you for sharing! Australia is truly a marvelous place with so many different habitats and surroundings! Ps. Love your screen name 🤗 xo!
So addictive. I love all the colors. Thank you.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰🤗…one more fantastic video full of infornation, good humor, good vibrations, etc…thanks one more time !…hey!, music superb !!!

Yes, that's what's so fun about the TH-cam artist community, lots of different perspectives 🙃
This is my favorite Daniel smith set too 😻
Right? Isn’t it the best one?? 🤩
These are defiantly some of my Daniel smith favorites and the ONLY set I bought from them absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for showcasing it!
It really is an all-star collection. There’s no better way to conveniently experience the essence of Daniel Smith than with this set in my opinion 👍
Yes! More, please
I LOVE Cascade Green! Mixed with some Phthalo Blue GS it makes the perfect turquoise and it’s amazing when painting seascapes💙
Individually the colors are lovely, but looking at them swatched out together they are beautiful. Love the cascade green and imperial purple.
Forgot to add: yes please I would enjoy more tutorials. Thank you 😊.
So agree with you! And used together, they really make for such a wonderful and modern color palette 🥰
Love this set! The colors are beautiful. ❤
Thank you for sharing this, I appreciate learning about these beautiful paints!
Happy you enjoyed it! ❤️🥰
This was the first set I bought from Daniel Smith. LOVE it & Aussie Red Gold completely stole my heart ✨️
I just ordered these paints !🎉 I’m so excited for them to arrive . Thank you for this video😊
Beautiful 💕 & well~done. 🌸 DS paints are lovely, too. 🌸🌸🦋☺️
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😘
I am a beginner and when I saw these paints I thought to myself the very same thing that this would be good for a beginner…so thanks to your review here ! I got them ! Thank you 😊
Nice--I"ve gotta have that Aussie red gold!!
Try it! You won’t be disappointed, I promise! 😉

Beautiful colours...
I agree! Thanks for watching!
Aussie Red Gold is very beautiful! I believe Art Spectrum was the first to make this particular mix. Daniel Smith then followed suite some time later.
I didn't know that! Thanks for the insight! 👍
Yes, DS was influenced by Aussie's own Art Spectrum, which unfortunately are hard to find in many places, I'd love to try them sometime.
Aussie red gold is one of my favorite colors. So gorgeous.
@@LCLand I think A Gallo has a similar mix. I think it’s Arancione, but I’m not entirely sure.
What a lovely set! I will put it on my list!
Im going tomorrow to buy the set!! Thank you!
Hope it creates beautiful art for you ❤️
This is my favorite set as well!
Have you ever covered Mission Gold Watercolors or have an opinion on them? I first started out with them and realized the colors are very vibrant. I just wondered what a professional's opinion would be on the 24 piece set and if it's okay to continue practicing with them.
They are beautiful but so so expensive. Did you ever try the Ukrainian brand Rosa Gallery? I love their colours very much.
The two greens are very similiar, they could have replaced one with a lemon yellow or cerulean.
It is the preference of the artist and what she uses in her paintings! Of all the colors I do use the undersea green the least. So I get what you mean! (But it's her curation)

This is my favorite set!
Mine too! Her choices are *chefs kiss*
Gosh I wish I had seen this set before I bought all of these colors individually over the past two years lol
I’m Australian and Aussie red gold really does remind me of the outback not that I’ve really been there lol but it also reminds me of Texas from what I’ve seen on movies and stuff ..
Lovely colours BUT Moonglow is not light-fast, nor is the Opera Pink, and a few others. I wouldn't use titanium as it's toxic.
True! I realize I forgot to make a note of that. Personally, I don't steer clear of less lightfast colors if I'm working with a reputable brand because most of my work gets scanned and goes digital for reproduction but it is an entirely personal choice for sure!

loved this video! I have a question: Out of the pinks, which one is the most lightfast?
The quinacridones are the most lightfast. Roman Szmal has some good ones 👍
@@Pointebrush oh yes I watched your unboxing video! Longing to travel to Chile to get those. Nobody imports them to Argentina, where I'm from.
Do green apatite and undersea green look similar in person? They did on video
Hi Kathy! They are *somewhat* similar, I agree. Green Apatite has a little more yellow to it whereas Undersea green has a murkier, earthy/brown undertone to it. Hope that helps!!
@@Pointebrush Yeah ok. That's what I saw. Just oddly similar though for such an expensive set. Imo anyway
@@kathyhackney7950 I do agree with you! However (and weirdly so), in practice, I feel like they fulfill quite different roles. I see green apatite as being.a substitute for a sap green whereas undersea green allows you to play with more earthy notes (like a green-ey raw umber or something).
I confused that the time stamps didn’t match up with any of the colors you were swatching. Lovely colors though.
My apologies and thanks for catching that! I just made the correction!! 🙈 Thanks for watching!!
thanks!!!
Sameee
The best. Daniel Smith set. Ever. 😂
@@Pointebrush yeahhh I love every color in it!
First!
❤️❤️❤️
