I've been using Shinhan Watercolor for over 15 years since I have lived in Korea. Also, I have a few other great Korean watercolor supplies to tell you about.
Hwahong Brushes (squirrel mop 500 series which is comparable to the Isabey 6234 Petit gris as well as a few other Hwahong brushes
The "Color Around" metal palette which is similar to the Holbein metal watercolor palette, but at a fraction of the cost....I highly recommend all.
Beautiful paintings!
I love Shinhan PWC ❤
I have been contemplating on giving Shinhan watercolors a try. Thank you for this review!
Just purchased the palette. Great recommendation, thanks!
Great deal, isn't it?
Thank you for the video, I've been searching for reviews on Hwahong brushes. I've subscribed 😊
If you have any questions about the brushes or other Korean supplies, I'm happy to help.
@@andersonstudio3610 Thanks! I was wondering if you've used one of those white goat hair flat wash brushes by Hwahong. I think it's a hake brush.
@@asim7255 Yes, they can be used for watercolor, but they are not the best in terms of control. They don't hold their shape very well after a few strokes. I also use those goat hair calligraphy brushes and it's the same issue with retaining shape. Not bad for more expressive work though...and cheap!
@@asim7255 If you have a pretty good ability in controlling your brushwork, you can learn to adjust and use them, but for beginners, I don't recommend them. Also, those are really intended to be used with ink in calligraphy and the hake is often used in methods to glue paper to a backing scroll. Goat hair doesn't hold much water but it's great for heavier mediums like heavier ink and such.
@@andersonstudio3610 Thanks for your advice. I'm actually looking for a brush that can quickly wet paper evenly or lay large wash of colours quickly. So far I'm using a medium to large round brush and an angular brush for that, I do have to go back and forth a lot.
Thank you for sharing all the very interesting information. Your paintings are gorgeous.
I was wondering if you know what the difference is between the ShinHan watercolors and the ShinHan Professional Korean Color. I can't find anywhere what time of paint they are.
There are a few different Shinhan series. In Korea, the best quality is called Artists Watercolor, but it's marketed as PWC outside Korea. It uses the highest quality of pigments and comparable to Winsor Newton Artists series or other top brands. Then there is "Professional" series which is low grade (student quality) with less pigment. Also, Shinhan makes a Korean traditional paint which I suppose you are referring to. It is more opaque and used for different techniques in painting.
Thank you for your review
Thabks so much...it had fun makibg the video
How about mission gold? Besides the fact that i think they maybe have brighteners and dont flow readily I love them..PWC is one of the very few watercolors that i haven't tried....next order to dick blick i will have to order just 1.
You can get the whole 32 color PWC set for about $120 or less. It's a bargain. I never really used Mission Gold so can't comment in detail about those. I can tell you that they are not nearly as popular over here in Korea.
I cut some of Maine brushes.🙃
Where do you buy this set?
Hi....how r u now
Are Shinhan paints eco friendly and non-toxic?
Shinhan uses cadmium in several colors. Cadmium is not eco-friendly. You can substitute Permanent Red for Cad Red for example. They are close but not really the same color.
