- This one starts sensibly and ends up...well, you'll see! I had a lot of fun trying these unique and beautiful colours from deepdeeplight. They're handmade watercolours from Latvia that I discovered via @kriksis and I haven't seen colours quite like this before. They're stunning; soft but rich, and somehow both contemporary and classic. I hope that you enjoy this video! Let me know which colour is your favourite. :)

I am from Latvia. I have a lot of deep deep light colors. I love them very much. These are very special, especially meadow green. These colors are wild, but in good meaning.
They are absolutely beautiful to work with and to look at. :)
I have got to go for daylily orange. That's just beautiful. And I like my men like I like my watercolor - hard on the pallette, full of honey, and easy to re-wet! ***runs from room blushing***
Oh la la!
Bahahaha… I like my watercolours happy, rich and cooperative! Not sure what was in your tea today, Natasha, but lovely to hear you laugh!
It’s certainly a dangerous game I’m playing, watching swatches of 1) granulating 2) muted 3) blue-greens at midnight, lol. Such stunning colors! Always a joy when new paints arrive 🌱🍵
Nicely said, Ms Natasha 😂😂😂 and truely, with Your lovely soothing voice You can talk colors, weather, gurgling drains or proverbial shopping list - it's all bliss to the listener❤❤❤ thank You for being You. All the best 😊
Aw, thank you Zora! x
I have purchased 3 sets from deepdeeplight over the last year and I adore them. They are a dream to paint with. I like my watercolors like I like my men. Bright, eclectic, and part of my horde.
They're amazing paints, aren't they?!
Nearly every one of those colours in wash would make an amazing moon! Each with its own mood. Gorgeous paints.
I totally agree!
LOVE YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR! I like my watercolors more than men! Period!
Lol I like watercolors luscious, whimsical, versatile and bloom just right. Thank you for sharing!
These are absolutely stunning colors and swatches!! I love them all!! 😍 Aaand I like my watercolors like I like my men .. full of depth, rich, comforting and so pleasing to the eye I can't take mine off them!!✨
I recently got the floral set and it is stunning. I love Masha's Green, River, Bentgrass but all of them really. I've recently ordered the Beetle sketchbook with 6 more colors, plus the Juniper and Roses mini set. I traveled to Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia in 97 and was very inspired. These paints bring back the energy of the Baltic sea and forests for me. The beauty of @deepdeeplight_watercolors besides their incredible "darlings" is their relationship with nature, humans, inspiration and art as therapy.
That's so interesting! The paints definitely have a magical feel when you're using them - the connection with nature is special. I love deepdeeplight's whole philosophy, backed up by an amazing product.
@@NatashaNewtonArt they will be extra busy now after your review, lol, which is great! Can't wait to see the special project you have planned for the River or Cedar Teal 💙
This is a palette right out of my 70s childhood! I just love it. River and dragonfly are my absolute favorites 😍 I like my watercolors like I like my men...I can't think of anything clever lol
Yes, it really does have a vintage feel!
I love your humor! These colors are gorgeous. 🏵 I like my watercolors like I like my men, gorgeous, expressive, reliable, honest (no fillers).😎
I like my Watercolours like I like my Men: They do all the work for me ❤😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha ha good one! 😂😂😂
A good quality in both watercolors and men lol
Ha ha!
Yes!!!!!!
Never found one of those.
Deep, rich and moody 😂😂😂that tickled me because its true (about watercolours obviously lol). These watercolours are beautiful but Cedar teal is gorgeous! And I love how the last 4 colours give me a mid century retro vibe 👌xx
Very mid-century, you're right! xx
The colors are yummy! They're almost like a more intense colored graphite, which I love with their vintage feel.
Love the colors: river, dragonfly & daylily. Thx 4 sharing🥰
Scrumptious colors. I love the Dragonfly and River.
"I like my watercolors like I like my men" haha such a funny sentence! I couldn't think of different continuation so I am leaving this as it is. :D
Thank you for mentioning me. How happy I am you like deep deep light. :)) A lot of colours are muted as they are inspired by Latvian nature. :) As for favourite colour both in your swatches and in my collection favourite is bentgrass. Exited to see your future secret project and how you use cedar teal and river.
Thank you for inspiring me to buy some of these beautiful colours, Kriksis! They're really very special. :)
I just got deep deep light colours - the Flower Moon Set and I‘m so much in love with them! ❤
The colors are so pretty thank you fir showing.
I just also saw a video from Kriksis yesterday and now this confirms I need to get some of these watercolors
Oooooh! I'm definitely in luurve!! I definitely sense another addition to my watercolor collection coming on. While I enjoyed seeing all of them switched, I think my favs were the Solstice Fern, Meadow Green and, OMG, that Daylilly Orange. And yes, I did love ❤️ the video and watched till the bitter end. 🤣
Lovely chatty swatching time Natasha. These watercolours are stunning! My fav has to be River. It reminds me so much of the sea at Budleigh Salterton here in Devon on a dark moody day...My fav place to be. I think I prefer the wash colours. I also like my watercolours to be like my men...deep, atmospheric and pleasing to the eye hahaha😁
I think I’d choose River, Dragonfly and Daylily Orange. So much depth to the colours! 😍
I love the Dragonfly, it’s beautiful.
Love them all but forest is amazing. I do agree it is a gorgeous palette all together!! And I agree I’m too old for that !!!😂😂
Well that was an entertaining video, made me giggle, especially the last bit! you got some beautiful colours and i'm so drawn to the blues and the orange.
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I have been eyeing these since Kriksis first swatched them. Along with the blues you have, I also want Jay blue and Juniper Shadow. Honestly, every color is beautiful and I like their philosophy as well. Thanks for sharing 😘
The two colours you've mentioned are absolutely beautiful too! x
Lovely paints! River is my favorite.
Definitely one of mine too!
I like my watercolors the way I like my men: bright, vibrant and dramatic.
My favorite is Solstice Fern and my husband's is Cherry Blossom. Lovely colors!
Stunning colours! I’ve checked these long time ago but haven’t brought myself to buying them so far because they are indeed pricey. You may have pushed me to do it now… I think my favourites are river, dragonfly and daylily orange. The greens remind me of Schminckes meadow set.
I like my watercolors like I like my men: deep, thought provoking with a bit of mystery. These are gorgeous colors! I wish I lived in the UK. You guys have so many great art supplies!
Beautiful colours. I thought you sounded especially chirpy and happy 😊 I like my watercolours like I like my man (I only like the one) , strong and bold 😉
That's a good one! I only like the one too. :)
Gorgeous! But the Cedar Teal, River, and Dragonfly…❤❤❤, love these videos, thank you for sharing your passion/collection!AND, buy what YOU want😊
Thanks Shona! x
Hi Natasha, wow 😯 those new watercolours are beautiful I love every colour you have chosen but my favourite is River and Cedar Teal 🥰 they are just so nice the granulation and the consistency look amazing I would love to buy some but they are a bit expensive but they look worth it so I may in a few months buy some xxx
You are too adorable! I am so new to the watercolor medium. I dabbled in it a bit while getting my art degree but I preferred acrylics so that’s where I pretty much stayed. Since giving them another try,
I have collected a few pre-made pallets and in each one I can see which colors I ignore and which I use most (as both single color and mixing colors. Because I am still testing the colorful waters I haven’t completely ironed out my personal likes.
Looking at their website, the photos are lovely and artsy, but it is difficult to get a real feel for the color. Your swatching brings out the beauty in each color! They should have you swatch all their colors!
Their photography is beautiful, isn't it? :) Thank you!
I like my watercolours like I like my men,deep and instinse! ha ha, Will definitly be adding Deep Deep Light colours to my own handmade watercolour cache. I think the colours you chose do have a period/historical look to themmlike maybe colours from the Arts & Crafts movement really love the Dragonfly Blue and the Day Lily Orange is really stunning and I think the Cherry Blossom is a good mixing colour too. The names o the colours are quite evocative too.. I like the imperfection of your circle swatches,it seems appropriate fror handmade colours. I started out many years ago with watercolours as an artist, but in the last three years or so I have really come back to them and found a new love fror creating with them. It is thanks to your other videos of handmadecolours that I made the choice to only use handmade colours and not branded ones,you do pay a little more,but I get more joy from using them and they have a unique vibrancy and quality that sets them apart a little, I noticed a very real step up in quality when I made the switch to soley using handmade colours and my work also changed for the better too,can't say how exactly,but I found I got a lot more from painting with handmade watercolours if that makes sense.I also felt they were a long term investment in my own creative practice too and it gave me a new apprciation of colour/pigments too.. You really do have such a gift for putting palettes together when you are buying new paints to add to your collection, and it inspires me to really think about palettes etc when I am buying new colours as well,I try to think of how I will use them in future artworks and also about how I can mix with them too,watching your videos like this has definitly changed how I buy new colours and why for the better and I'm thankful to you for that. Can't wait tto see the 'prjects' you are working on if you decide to fil them for youtube.(matt) P.s I agree it does feel like this winter is going on a bit too long!
I love the dragonfly, daylily orange, and solstice fern the best, although they are all lovely
I loved the colors dragonfly and cherry blossom 😍😍 I usually prefer brighter paints but this pink is truly different and gorgeous
It is! Such a unique pink.
Cheery Blossom is my favorite for sure!
I cant tell you my favorite because they are all so beautiful! I do like my watercolors like I USED to like my men, rich and varied....haha....but now I have just the one, man that is...not rich but he is a keeper.
I like my watercolors as I like my men. Permanent, supportive, calm and dependable. These are all beautiful colors. I can’t wait to see your surprise! Stay warm and dry! Spring will be here soon with her warm sweet breezes to hold us gently as you enjoy the outdoors. Fran
I love the Cherry Blossom! So pretty! And I like my watercolors like I like my men - deep and dark 😁😁
The colors are incredible, the Day Lilly Orange is lovely and I am normally not a fan of oranges because they tend to look plasticky but this one is more natural and just beautiful
I agree with you about oranges in general - this one is, like you say, just so natural and lovely!
Yay!! I KNEW you would love them. I had send you a message on Insta when I got mine. I too chose a 8 pan palette and chose almost all the same colours. And now I want more!!! I love every colour I got so I know I'll love any new ones too!
“I like my watercolours like I like my men…” (hmmm, to say “on sale” seems very wrong, but it’s what I thought of initially lol… and a few other terms that came to mind did NOT sound much better, so I think I should just stop 😂)… oh, I know… expressive!
Beautiful selection of colours!
😂😂😂
You're suffering from the same problem Dominic and I had when we were trying to come up with more endings to that phrase! 😂
BluTack is an Artist’s best friend 😂. It comes in handy so often!
I have an absurd collection of DDL. They are my favorite of all handmade and commercial watercolors. Night Raspberry is glorious! Also their Raw Sienna, Caput Mortuum, I never thought I'd use Wood Cow Wheat but I use it all. the. time. Tuff Volcanic Ash, Mother Earth Grey... Really you can't go wrong.
And either they use their customer records in a very savvy way or they have excellent memories because they always seem to remember who I am when I order.
I always feel better when I reach for my DDL paint.
I can honestly see why they're you're favourite - unique colours, inspiring stories behind the colours on their website with gorgeous photos, the paints are wonderful to work with, and the owners/makers are lovely too!
wonderful video very pretty 😍😍
NO moody man!!! :) beautiful collors. Love the granulated.
You're the queen of swatches 😆
Why, thank you! I believe I can only aspire to the title - maybe one day? ;)
I love your new palette. No way I could choose a favorite or three. They are all beautiful. How about, deep, rich and complex? We can do without moody anybody although quite acceptable in watercolor paint. Thanks for sharing.
Oh now this palette is so me...I'm in love 💕
Hmmmm my watercolors vs men...
Interesting
Warm
Gorgeous
Couldn’t pick a favorite but the cherry blossom, orange and dragonfly are my top three
New Sub here Natasha I was in awe watching you swatch those beautiful water colors
Thanks so much for subscribing! It's lovely to hear that you're enjoying the videos.
omg Natasha I didn't need to know about these... They're gorgeous. That Cedar Teal is delicious. Which, coincidentally, is how I like my watercolours and my men :D
Hahaha!
Dragonfly, River are my prefered. 😊
I like them both rich, strong and powerfull ;-)
Really enjoying your posts -started watching you about a month ago - certainly remember the robin one! I have just got into the sketchbook thing and you are encouraging me no end. I am coming to Cornwall in May and have made a note of some of your locations so I can sketch them too.
Hi Janet! If I'm not mistaken, I think this comment might be meant for Mel Chadwick?!
@@NatashaNewtonArt yes sorry!
Meadow Green and Cedar Teal are both beckoning me like some sort of siren.
Gosh I love them all hard to pick a favorite I think top three for me are dragon fly,solstice fern, and bent grass. I do really like the others tho too lol great palette choice❤
Thanks Amber! I posted your dot card the other day, so I hope it will be with you soon! 🦎
@@NatashaNewtonArt yay! I can’t wait xxx
You aren’t wrong; I gotta have them❣️❣️❣️🔥💋
Like my watercolors like I like my men: dark, granulating , and deep. Loved that drangfly color
these are gorgeous colors! i am putting deep deep light on my list of handmade i want to buy! river is stunning and I can’t decide between it being my fav or cedar teal lol. river reminds me of when I mix paynes grey (daniel smith) and viridian (also daniel smith), which I think are PBk9, PB28, and PG18 :) solstice fern is also really pretty. that last comment was hilarious, thanks for bringing some joy to those of us watching ✨ i would say I like my watercolors how I like my men: deep, opaque, and earthy, but then i’d be implying I (generally) like men lmao🏳️🌈✨
Ha ha, I love this!
I've been following them on insta, really wanted to try them! they look gorgeous
They're as lovely as I'd hoped! Actually, even more so...
@@NatashaNewtonArt the granulation on river!! it reminds me of dragon scales
Just got back from a rehab after my oncological diagnosis. As a part of self care, we had a few sessions of art therapy, where I got to dabble with watercolour after decades of not working with them.
Now I soak up all the videos to free the potential of the colour medium and my own. This way I landed on your channel and will stick around.
I like my colours dependable and complex in a good way, always open to surprise me.
My fave was daylily orange, followed by dragonfly and solstice fern.
Thank you and good luck with your rehab!
River and Daylily Orange
love your handwriting, very neat and readable, unlike mine lol
really like the dragonfly colour and the name🥰
meh moody men, often the best looking but not the best mentally for a long term relationship 😝
I like my watercolors like i like your videos😜😂❤!
So glad you like them, Janine!
Thank you Natasha! Beautiful colors- I especially like Dragonfly and River. I like my watercolors like I like my men…. Hmmmm…
Lovely color selection as always. 💜
I like my watercolors like I like my men, warm and deep. (I really..um...yeah.)
Nice! ;)
River, all the way!
"I like my water colors as I like my men": dependable; predictable; able to wash and layer. I have learned the hard way that with the water color medium, there is much more than the swatch. That doesn't mean I don't like a good Natasha swatching video. Cheers!
Oh so true, Erica!
Beautiful watercolours Natasha, but I’d have to take a second mortgage to afford them in Australia lol (-: Marion
My #1 is Solstice Fern, #2 is Dragonfly Blue (very close).
I like my men big and rough. Like your fave colors!🤭
that cedar teal looks like that misty pine tree colour you see in gouache background demos
River was my favorite
Sorry I can’t on the whole be doing with men, so cannot answer, even thoughI made it to the end!
I really enjoyed seeing these colours, they are really quite different in mass tone to wash, aren’t they? It is as if you have a bigger palette. I love how they granulate. I liked the woodland fern, cherryblossom , and the one that washes out like a yellow. The pink is almost lilac in mass tone and you could easily push that with other colour choices. What I like best about this choice is that they are rather moody but in a good way. I cannot buy more watercolours so I am unlikely to ever own these, but as a colour and pigment addict I really enjoyed this. I would like to see the orange even further washed out, a bit like the pink…. I have only recently come to enjoy muted subtle pales, I do like the top two neutrals as well, but the possibilities are endless aren’t they!
Thanks for another interesting swatching session.
You've described it perfectly! It's like having a larger palette just through using them in both mass tone and wash. :)
Thank you for sharing these gorgeous colors….I just love how perfectly you can paint those circles😊 would you share your favorite brushes and where to purchase please?
Just Google "Betty Hayways watercolour brushes" and you should find them!
@@NatashaNewtonArt Thank you so much Natasha :)
❤️
I like my watercolours like I like my men 😆❤ Gorgeous palette 😍
The colors on the right side are the colors I'm attracted to
Beautiful paints. Wouldn't it be amazing to have the opportunity to swatch all the colours from all the brands lol. That would keep a person busy. I know what you mean about winter. I am over in western Canada and it also feels like this winter has dragged on forever. I like my watercolours like I like my men, highly pigmented and creamy? hahaha
LOL
Ha ha!
Oooh! Deep Deep Light! I hope you got their PB74, it is a rather unique turquoisish (?) blue.
Nope, the PB74 is not there 😂
Maybe next time?!
@@NatashaNewtonArt I hope so! It ‘s their Deep Blue, which looks more like a very deep turquoise.
@@NatashaNewtonArt Actually looking at your swatches, Deep Blue looks a lot like River, so I’m not sure it would be worthwhile fir you to get Deep Blue, if you ever buy from them again.
I like my watercolours like I like my men- wistful and mysterious. Welcome to your new addiction!! I love these paints and Agnese and Daina are so wonderful to their customers!
My favourite is dragonfly.
I like my watercolors like I like my men: Deep, Dark and Lightfast!
I like my watercolours the way I like my men, earthy, deep and granular( I wasn’t sure how to make my man granular, but the amount of brick dust and plaster dust he brings home with him, he’s fairly granular!😅).
Ha ha, I have one like that! ;)
Wish mine was like that!
Adore these colors! 😍 Question… what pencil do you use to label the colors? Trying to find something like this that doesn’t smear or fade…
I like my watercolors like I like my men - gorgeous, unique, reliable, easygoing and a bit unruly 😜
It's a Blackwing 602!
Natasha, I have a few travel size pallets, and each has a swatch card. I see you are using a sheet of canson for this swatch. Is there a specific way that you store your swatch card?. Like in a binder or folder. I really like the circles.
I store the loose ones in a folder! The others are in sketchbooks. :)
I like the Daylilly Orange. I like my watercolors like I like my men, warm, bold and inviting. LOL.
Oooh, Patricia! ;)
Daylily Orange...wow!
I like my watercolours like I like my men: muted!
😂👍
Men watching til the end and reading these comments: 👨🏫📝📝📝 taking notes 😂😂
I like the dragonfly teal and the daylily orange together.
Ha ha!
I like my water colors ...LOL!
I like my watercolor like I like my men: strong, bright, full of fun, and able to mix it up.
I like my watercolors like I like my men - bright, bold and full of personality.
