Please more videos about Roman Szmal watercolours - and reviews of watercolours and art supplies too 😅😊
Haha I will try!
Thank you for posting your video. I too love Roman Smzal watercolours. You need not have worried about speaking without a script, I payed far more attention to what you were saying, and if you hadn’t have made a joke about you saying ok and so a lot, I wouldn’t have noticed. Well done on an excellent video. I wish you the very best. I have subscribed and have the bell on too! Best wishes from Scotland 👩🏻🎨🖌️🎨👋🏻
Thank you so much! Good to know, when I heard the recording I was devastated so I thought the only think left is to turn it into a joke :D Thank you so much for subscribing
Welcome to the world of professional watercolors! I hope you enjoy them all. You asked early in the video about why they looked so dark in the pan. Generally speaking, very transparent colors do appear dark, because, like on the paper, the light is passing right through. More opaque pigments (or cheaper paints that contain fillers like many student brands) are easier to see the color in the pan. Happy painting!
Thank you for explanation, it makes sense now!
I do enjoy them very much, the upgrade from my previous ones is massive!
They are also darker because they have a higher pigment load than student grade paints. Hence the intensity of the colors. These swatches are giving you a nice preview of these colors but if you get them in some 100% cotton watercolor you will be amazed. Also, with the granulating colors be sure to put down a LOT of water. Especially the Mineral Violet will be more effective that way. It granulates into beautiful pinks and blues. You’d see a bit more of the pink in Misty Morning as well. These are great color choices and I think using these new paints will make you very happy! I also recommend looking at Aquarius Violet as it has beautiful granulation but is still very different from the Dioxazine and the Mineral Violet. The Blue Ridge Burnt and Raw Siennas are gorgeous earth tones for landscapes and wildlife painting.
@@donnamunday6749 Thank you so much for so many tips and recommendations! I will check out those colors. I have one block of 100% cotton that I haven’t been using as I am afraid to waste it, but I will have to check the difference!
I have some of these too! I like mixing quin gold with mineral violet to make brown monochromatic trees watery enough for the pigment to separate a bit on the paper. I have deep green gold and intense ultramarine. Ive liked mixing Aquarius green with teal (which is like your sea green; a mix I found on the glitter crayon’s channel under cobalt teal mixes, I believe). Aquarius brown can look nice on yellows. That’s about all I see that I do have. I have a little under 30 full pans and I’m not out of colors yet, but your picks look awesome.😊
I just found out pbr11 Aquarius brown is magnetic. I knew PBK11 was magnetic but not the brown one. You can drag a magnet under the paper when the brown is on a wet mix on the paper and it will create a different texture.
Thank you so much, I will have to try all of those mixes! 😊
WOW... I am speechless! I have to try this, thank you so much for sharing this information!
I would have never noticed the "so's"😅
The phrase that bothers me is "so...yeah" at the end of every other sentence.
I loove the colors you picked! I love my roman szmal palette and seeing swatch yours got me excited to paint with mine 🥰
Great selection 😅
Thank you!
I really enjoy Roman Szmal paints and I’m sure you will like your finished paintings. Dee
Yes, I have painted a little bit with them and I love them!
❤Roman Szmal to nasz europejski Daniel Smith i nie jest to sarkazm ale prawda pod wzgledem charakterystyki farb, pigmentacji, wyboru kolorów.
Są wspaniałe!
Nikomu z profesjonalnej serii nie polecam Rosa Gallery, ludzie kupuja je bo sa tanie ale to nie sa dobre farby- zachowuja sie jak transparentny gwasz. Dobrze że zdecydowalas sie ich kupić ze wzgledu na tubki.
Dokonałaś najlepszego wyboru! Podobają mi sie też kolory jakoe wybrałaś ❤
Ja sama używam farb od Qor, Sennelier, M.Graham, Daniel Smith i W&N, Schmincke, ale to Roman Szmal a za nim W&N są w czołówce. Od momentu aktywacji do wyschniecia na papierze to przyjemność pracowac z nimi.
Dzieki za komentarz! ❤️ No waśnie jestem w szoku ze nie słyszałam wczesniej o tych farbach 😀 swietnie mi sie nimi maluje, juz sama roznica w intensywnosic kolorow sprawia ze obrazki ladniejsze niz wczesniejszymi farbami. "Rosa gallery" to ewnie słownik poprawił z Rembrandt? Tez się cieszę że wybrałam jednak te, co prawda nie mam porównania, ale z tego co piszesz to nie brzmią dobrze, wiec sie cieszę! 😀 a z tych innych firm któreś jeszcze polecać oprócz W&N? Kojarzę wszystkie nazwy ale też ze ceny zawrotne 😀
your english is great and i love your self-irony (the counter, the disclaimers:)! i would have never even noticed the "so"s if you hadn't counted them:D you did great and yes, i love Roman Szmal.
can you do a video that just consists of you saying Przybysz's Grey 50 times in a row so that we finally learn how to pronounce this beautiful name properly?;)
also are the Winsor colours you compared to the Roman Szmal Cotman or artist grade? that comparison was very helpful, too. thanks
Haha thank you I am so glad to hear that it was not that bad 😀 I can't promise anything, but I like the idea of tutorial video for pronouncing Przybysz's grey! So maybe I will record it!
I checked my order and it is Winsor Professional 489 Permanent Magenta S3 pigment PV19. It is a nice color but very muted and I wanted something to paint vibrant pink in flowers, so it was just not what I was looking for. But W&N do have quinacridone magenta with the same PR122 pigment as Roman Szmal, which I suppose would be very similar.
@@jsart10 this was so interesting! thank you so much for your time and patience
I love RS watercolors. I hope you enjoy them a lot! :D
I do enjoy them a lot!
I love the dosclaimer haha, i tried recording a video and i stuttered and spoke so much random rubbish so far through it. I decided i may need to do a voice over or make it just music. I've not got round to watching the full video ywt but thought id mention its totally normal to get nervous and end up repeating some things, i said ehh ehhh ehhh soooo many times throughout mines lmao 😂😂😂
Haha thank you so much for this comment! 😂❤ yeah, I spoke much more random rubbish and "eeeem" as well, and I spent so much time deleting those while editing! When I was recording I was thinking "it is not that bad, i am doing great" and then I was quite devastated to hear the outcome, so I decided the only thing left is to laugh a little bit at myself 😂
Kolory w kostkach są ciemne nie przez spoiwo tylko to wynika z czegoś z fizyki i światła czego nie rozumiem sama 🤣 ale to na pewno nie spoiwo. Lubię oglądać budowanie palet, leci sub
No właśnie byłam bardzo zdziwiona tym bo nigdy nie miałam takich farb 😀 dzięki za wyjaśnienie!
@@jsart10 spoczko, w internecie jest masa różnych filmów o nich, są dość dobrze udokumentowane bo ludzie je uwielbiają 😄 miłego w takim razie malowania! Fajnie się patrzy na nowiuśką palete ☺️
