    Brilliant, and yes, I may make swatches from each pan, but nope. If I mix any new colors, it’s making a page of rocks, mushrooms, birds, water, whatever. Then if I like it I make note of what I used. Way more fun and not tedious at all. I did that today with my new Kuretake Gansai Tambi Sumi blacks set. Perfect for moody paintings, rocks, shadows, etc.

      Great idea! 👍🏻 Rocks, mushrooms, and birds, all my favorite things. I need to try the Gansai paints. I always see them and they look nice.

      @@IllustrationsByPete I have nearly every set of the Gansai Tambi paints, love them! Now, they are designated as watercolors, but do behave somewhat differently. You have several 6-pan sets, gem, pastel, metallics, pearls. Then you have the moody 6-pan sets in Boku Undo E-sumi, Graphite, the 24 set Art Nouveau, list goes on with up to 72 set I think. Just try a smaller set to play with them. Most of them lift well, many granulate in some form, and can also present with some gouache-like qualities. Super fun!

    Another great video and Q&A Pete! To stop granulation you can add a very very small amount of white gouache/paint and it should help a lot! Happy Memorial Day everyone!...Rus from Pennsylvania ❤️🖌🎨🇺🇲🤓

  • @petalpusher
    @petalpusher Před 2 měsíci +1

    Glanced at my notes about how to optimize granulating watercolors & considered the exact opposite of each of those tips. Maybe using one or more of these approaches would help minimize intensity of granulation:
    > use cold press paper
    > make sure paper is fully dry when granulating paint is applied
    > heavily dilute the granulating watercolor, allowing it to rest long enough for heavier pigment particles to settle onto palette & avoid being picked up by brush
    > use a heat gun to immediately dry the paper after granulating paint is applied

    Yeah, pastels can be an issue - some people start having breathing issues because of it.
    You could use oil pastels where the dust is not an issue with it - but is slightly different in use than dry pastels. Oil pastels are usually better because they are more durable, adhere better and they don't create dust. Oh and usually color of the pigments tend to be more intense.
    Nice drawing as usual ;) :).

    • @IllustrationsByPete
      @IllustrationsByPete  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the info. I never really seemed to get along with oil pastels but it's been a long time since I tried them. Maybe things would be different now. 👍🏻
