- Hi friends!
Today we have a bonus episode full of close ups of my granulating watercolor paints that are NOT in my 100% granulation palette. They are only Daniel Smith watercolors since all of them reside in my 100% Daniel Smith ONLY watercolor palette. So there are no official 'super granulating paints' from the Schmincke range but to be fair, a lot of Daniel Smith paints have stunning granulating properties before the whole 'super granulating' label was a thing. In this video you will see 9 pretty paints each with their own use and charm. I had so much fun making this video and I would love to hear what you think. Let me know in the comments and I'll see y'all later, bye!
Enjoy!
♡

love the close ups and the blooms, thanks for sharing! :D the lunar black looks like a baby monkey being swaddled XD
It's my pleasure! I went back to check the Lunar Black and you are so right hahaha, I can't unsee this now! I'll have to pin this comment so everyone can only see a swaddled baby monkey haha. Thanks for the laughs :D
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 🤣❤️ it's so cute~
This gives new meaning to the phrase “watching paint dry”. In this case - very informative because it often takes time to appreciate what these paints will look like when they are dry. Thanks for the video and the - time - needed to capture how the paints develop.
Hahaha that's a good one! We're literally a community of people that like watching paint dry 😂and I'm so glad you find it informative :D It takes me some time but I do enjoy all the colors and the way I get to know my paints even better through these swatches and experiments 😊
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890just a few days ago I said to my husband “you can tell your friends that your wife enjoys watching paint dry…but that doesn’t make me a nerd, does it?” Glad I found my community 🤓😆
I am going to go for broke. Lol. I like them all. Thank you for the upclose view and great descriptions...
Sorry to your wallet but they are well worth it! As long as you have fun right? Happy painting!
I have been looking for good tutorials o,n granulation techniques. THANK YOU
I to have all these lovely colors, and they are stunning indeed. There is one more that I thought might have been chosen with these colors and that is Shadow Violet. It’s gorgeous.
I sadly don't own the shadow violet color or else it would sure as heck be in there haha. Since the shadow violet seemed very close to the moonglow and I do have budgetary restrictions, I decided not to get the shadow violet since I already have moonglow. Have you worked with the shadow violet?
I really enjoyed all of your videos on granulating watercolors. It should be noted that although the opera and moon glow are lovely, both are fugitive colors and should be used with that fact it mind when creating artwork. Looking forward to more videos, thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much miss rocket :) and those are wonderful notes to add, thank you. Happy to have you on board!
Brillant stuff. Thank you very much. 🤗🤗🤗
So welcome!
Green apatite genuine is my favorite. Its great for plants... love it so much
I don't paint many plants but, man, can I imagine using green apatite genuine for those. Makes me want to paint!🌿
I’m pretty sure the fluorescent dye is rhodamine B bc i have used it during college in labs and the color is pretty similar, also mijello‘s version of opera pink has bv10 and it’s this rhodamine.
Oh that's very interesting!! That would explain. I wonder why they wouldn't add it to the pigment information 🤔
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 I have no idea honestly
Thanks for another great video on granulating colors! Unfortunately, I just learned from another CZcams artist that Moonglow is not light fast as advertised. I had literally just purchased it the day prior and was watching videos about it. I guess the actual light fast testing is with on either oil or acrylic not for each specific medium. This person did their own lightfast tests and it faded immediately. The watering down must affect it. Total bummer. I plan to return it and create my own version based on the video (Kimberly something if you search Moonglow lightfast or create your own Moonglow you’ll find the video). Extremely disappointing but others should know. In fact, learning about this is how I eventually came across your channel, because then I went down a granulating watercolor rabbit hole! Happy to have found you!
Thank you for this! I fell in love with the Green Apatite Genuine and also Cascade Green. They’re on m y list now!!!!!!
Yaayy for pretty green colors!!
Beware on Moonglow. Another YT'er/swatcher said she exposed it to sunlight in the window for 2 weeks and the red faded. I have a 5ml tube of it, myself, and like it for its muted purplish color. But now that I got this data, I probably won't get another tube. Maybe Shadow Violet will serve. It can be made with Ult Blue, Viridian and a red or red-orange.
A great video. I makes me want to spend loads of money! Thank you, it is very informative.
love watching videos about granulating colors ;) sometimes I really like granulation, and sometimes I just miss flat colors very much
Haha yeah granulation itself in paint is old as can be, but it does have a strong presence at the moment. Good thing is you can use flat and granulating colors together and we don't have to choose 😊🥳
Green apatite is great! What a surprise when it dried!
Right?! It's not everyones thing but it's a good paint if you ask me :)
Found I had theses colors but found new Amy’s to use them! Thank you so much!
Cool!! Curious to know how you'll use them in your next works
I have been loving the videos on granulated and mineral paints. I can’t wait to see more.
Thanks Kelly! I'll see what I can do ;)
Love Undersea Green, I have used it in a few paintings myself, just stunning.
Have you tried the Serpentine Genuine? That is a lovely separating green too, it has brown specks that settle out, really pretty.
Have recently also purchased Daniel Smith's Purpurite, wooo, thats a pretty colour. Also use their Sodalite Genuine, a really lovely Blue Black.
I just Love Daniel Smith watercolours, fell in love from my first use years ago. Serpentine was the very first colour I purchased from the range, and I have been very slowly collecting colours ever since. ❤
Thanks for the reviews! Very interesting and helpful. I have a couple of these and love them. I’m trying to use them to their best effect. Thanks for the ideas!
My pleasure Carol :) which one is your favourite?
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 I have and love Lunar Blue but I so want to get the Cascade Green. That’s just stunning! I’ve got to put it on my wishlist. The drying shift is so fun!
I have every paint except for Imperial purple and Cascade green which has been on my : "to buy" list. My favourites are Green Apatite and Lunar Blue. Burnt Bronzite Genuine also has great granulation. Others with similar properties are: Venetian Red, Verditer Blue, Nickel Azo Yellow, and a bit with Lavender.
so cool that we like the same paints, haha!I'll look into the oclors you mentioned. I do have a vetian red by Rembrandt I believe, but that doesn't appear to granulate..
I love undersea green. If you spray along the edge it veins out to a yellow colour. One of my most used colours in my palette. The lunar blue looks amazing. Will be adding it to my wish list. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
That's such a useful tip Yano, thank you! I'll try that one out for sure. And you are so very welcome :D
If you get the chance check out the Roman Szmal paints. They have some gorgeous granulating and separating paints for a fraction of the cost of the other big brands
Thanks for the tip Nikki! I'll go and see if I can warrant getting some of them :)
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 My personal favourites are Mineral Violet and Misty Morning. Dr Oto Kano has a series going through the whole range (though I haven't watched it in the attempt to resist the temptation to buy more!)
Oh and Shadow Violet!
Haha such self restraint!
ASMR Sugarvoice!
Your granulation videos are so hard for me to watch
Because sadly I love all of them and I can only afford to add to my collection slowly and it's hard to pick which to start with 🤣
Haha awww I feel this comment deep in my soul! It took me years to build up to this collection Jean, so don't worry, you'll get there some day. It's all about the journey ;) Stay strong 💪
The shape of the Undersea Green looks like Homer Simpson… or the ghost of Homer Simpson.
Cascade Green is very nice.
Wait, really?! I have to check
I don't see it!! Aaw I need to know haha
@@myfantasticalimaginarium1890 😂😄
Tilt your head to the right; the two rightmost water blooms are the eyes and the one in the middle is the nose. His forehead is rather prominent.
@@awatercolourist yeahh, I see it!!! Hahaha good spot!!
