Wow! Thanks so much for choosing to paint me :) I really am enjoying this series, and it’s so inspiring for my own art and channel 💜💜
I always use my “good stuff,” because, what’s the point of having them? My everyday palette is mostly M Graham with the rest being 50/50 Dan Smith and Mission Gold. It’s my rock-on palette because each and every tube paint is hand selected by moi, is in a well style palette instead of tiny half-pans, and totally fits my needs. I do tend to reach for my Bee paper over my Arches though, because I only have two sheets left and it’s feeling kinds precious.
I only use the good stuff too, while the less good stuff is waiting around for when they are more suited for something! I could never buy a palette and not even try it, that just sounds like torture xD
I'm the same!! I love using my expensive art supplies...they definitely bring me more joy! I also tend to use Bee paper, so I don't waste my precious Arches for practicing. Especially since I feel like they are price gouging for Arches on Amazon this month...And also so sad I'm on my last pack of Bee paper, and I can't find the 100% cotton anywhere now?!?
Stephanie Davis oh no!!
Ellen Wilberg
Doesn't it, though!
Me too
Expensive stuff makes me excited and more confident.
The only thing that i rarely use if its really expensive is paper 🤣
Expensive paper is really intimidating.
Thank you so much, Tori, for being honest when art doesn't exactly go as planned. But even more importantly is seeing you continue to move forward and to not be scared to make bad art sometimes. It helps me to be less intimidated by the blank page. Thanks again!
I love that you are using your expensive supplies - you deserve to! :D Honestly, it broke my heart a little to hear that you save them/don't use them bc you're afraid you're not "ready" or "talented enough" for them yet. To me, as a beginner, who loves your work, it makes me think, "oh no, I must have no business using supplies like that, then!" I struggle with this feeling a lot, especially when artist level supplies can be expensive.
I reassure myself by asking, "Will I enjoy this $10 tube of Daniel Smith $10's worth?" The answer is always Heck Yes! Why not use it up? The worst that happens is you buy enough tube. I loved your video from a few days ago when you made a declaration that at this stage in your art journey you no longer want to use student-level supplies that frustrate you. Keep that mindset every day! You deserve to have fun and love your supplies.
No more saving them, ok? Otherwise, what did you buy them for, girlie!
This is actually really surprising! A lot of your most expensive supplies are the same as mine, especially the schminche set and the escoda and silver black velvet brushes (and im currently using the etchr sketchbooks). In opposition however, these are my most used art supplies despite me probably being at a lower skill level than you. Using these supplies feel great, like they don't fight against me when i'm using them and allow me to focus just on the art.
LazyStray I have a Schmincke set that I’ve always wanted for my birthday, I don’t use it much because I was scared of using such an expensive art supply and I haven’t yet mastered my skills,, ;o;
I have several different expensive palettes, and all I really do is the watercolor equivalent of doodle. I don’t hav egrets aspirations, I just love playing with color, it’s soothing. So that makes it worth it to me. Why buy something nice and not use it? Or not buy things because you aren’t “worthy” of them. They were made to be used and enjoyed, so do it! Dooooooo iiiiiiiit! LoL
This. Exactly this is why noone should feel like they're not allowed to use specific art supplies. Great supplies feel great and help you do great stuff. No matter the skill level!
@@mushroomrisotto2556 Use them! As someone who has used a few different brands of artist watercolour now (I'm still trying to get my hands on some mission gold), schmincke has turned to out to be my favourite so far! They have this beautiful soft, almost velvety texture to them when dry that i absolutely adore. That aside, the majority of us do not art for the sake of a job, we do it for fun! And nice supplies can definitely make an experience 1000% more fun. Crack them out and have a play! i promise you you won't regret it
@@allthecolorsinmyhead I agree completely! I'm just now dipping my toes into the world of colour but nothing feels better than seeing that bright pop of colour from Daniel smith, or the luminosity of sennelier, or the soft velvet from schmincke. Art for me has always and will always be about enjoying myself and the creative process. Otherwise, what's the point in doing it at all?
That miniature study came out GORGEOUS and also THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing this series of videos! It's what has inspired me to begin sketching and painting again after nearly a year of feeling total creative block/anxiety. I love that you upload even when your painting sessions aren't as nice as you hoped for (even though they look beautiful to me), as it helps me get over the disappointment in myself when any particular study goes poorly. I'm subscribing on Patreon because of this series
I honestly appreciate how open you are with what events didn't turn out the way you hoped they would.
And yes, the allure of fancy and new art supplies fixing all our art is just a fantasy, but man, it's hard not to forget that sometimes too.
I really look forward to this series every week day. Thank you for creating and sharing your work with us. :D
The Schmincke watercolor set is actually what i am using for years now, and tbh i don't miss any colors. I would never give it away, but it's interesting to see your opinion!
This video has encouraged me to finally dive into some nice art supplies I bought for Christmas! It’s been almost six months but I’ve been holding back on using them in fear I won’t do them justice 😬 I was also curious about how you learned about color mixing, I find the colors in your watercolors so beautiful and have been wondering how to improve in that regard. Thanks always for your wonderful videos! ❤️
These videos have finally inspired me to go out and buy some watercolors and try them out and I'm having a lot of fun!
Ahh, I see Denise Soden's watercolor set in the background!! I can't wait to see your super soothing and aesthetic color mixes with her color selection :)
I see those steinburg brushes! I used to work at New York central with Heather as my employer lol it’s been closed down now but that just reminded me of good times
chocolatebunny98 😍😍😍 oh man! To have worked with Heather!!! It was Heather who gave me the brushes, she is so cool! I have fond feelings towards these brushes because of her, thank you for sharing your good time memories too!
Thank you for starting this series! I really enjoy sketchbook content from artists, and it's so wonderful to have 5 new videos to watch a week. I don't think you need to do anything special or have a theme in order to make your content interesting for us, because it's nice to just see whatever you're interested in drawing at the moment. Even if all you did was small studies of different portraits or plants, or made notes about what colors you are enjoying mixing at the moment, I would really enjoy all of it :)
Agreed! We're just so happy to watch the content you make.
Thanks for not just doing yet another swatch video! Every water colour video I click on seems to be that I rarely do I get to see the actual painting skills of the artist.
I have the same problem with my art supplies. I buy or get gifted supplies and then get too intimidated to use them since I'm not used to painting--I usually just use graphite or color pencils. But watching you experiment encourages me to push through for the sake of learning and growing. Thank you Tori!!
LOVE WATCHING YOU PAINT
This month I bought my first silver black velvet ever, in N8, after 3 years of back and forth thinking. It is amazing and now I regret not buying it sooner. It is my most expensive brush
I love my Schmincke paints but every time I hear how expensive they are in oversea I get a little shock. My 24 colour full pan palette did cost me around 90€ which is around 100$ in the US. But then on the other hand I just can`t get my hands on some affordable M. Graham paints.
Ahh I'm so happy you ended up going for it! One of my favorite things about this series is how willing you are to be honest with your process/experience and go through the whole painting and editing process even when things don't work out the way you planned. It's hard to face your own mistakes, and even harder to share them with strangers on the internet. So thanks for continuing to power through this series, can't wait to see what you'll experiment with next!
I´ve assembled a custom schmincke palette by buying single tubes, researching the pigments & opacity first and then deciding which colours to put in my palette. It´s become my favourite mixing palette, I love these paints so much!
Henni R wowowow! That sounds dreamy!!! Any particular tubes you recommend?
@@VictoriaGedvillas Schmincke´s ruby red (PV19) as a cool red & delft blue (PB60) for a warm blue (as opposed to a traditional ultramarine usually used) have become essential for me, they mix beautifully! Schmincke´s potters pink is also quite fun to work with :)
I'm so happy to see a video of you trying high-quality supplies
i'm really happy to see that you weren't discouraged and you are still willing to give those supplies another shot. Really inspiring!
I look forward to your sketchbook habit videos everyday to get me through the anxiety of quarantine, so thank you for making them so consistently and being so honest and vulnerable with your artwork and process !! You’re one of my favorite artists and are super inspiring to watch! Sending you lots of love 💕
I look forward to the series everyday and I love painting with you. Thank you for being transparent and showing the good and bad! :)
Thanks for the dedicated content Tori 😭
Your daily vids are now one of my main sources of entertainment during self quarantine.
Have you ever considered redoing an art piece you messed up in the same vid? I like seeing how artists make and fix their mistakes because I just end up overworking one piece and don’t let it go to and try again 💜
i was so glad to see you crack into your perfect sketchbook! breaking the seal on that special stuff you're saving can be really hard, and i'm glad you treated yourself! i'm sorry that the process ended up being rough, but i love that you share your struggles as well as your triumphs with us. it helps me keep things in perspective when things don't always turn out. it's refreshing to see mistakes and mishaps alongside more curated art feeds. thanks!!
i hope that your next session goes smoothly and enjoyably for you!
I loved your honesty in this video and as always I enjoyed watching you paint. This series is definitely giving me life right now and giving me something to look forward to at the end of each day. 🤗
Yay it’s really fun to see you playing with the expensive supplies even though it didn’t go well at first! Love your attitude towards the mistakes as well, the mindset to keep pushing and evaluating is super inspiring. I’m so happy that the session broke the ice for you, and that you feel more comfortable using them.
My first Schmincke experience was a split-complementary 12 pan set curated by an artist, sold on the WetPaint site. WetPaint was doing an annual, limited-edition, custom artist-curated set for a few years, though I don’t remember if they will continue them. Anyways, that set is one of my best friends, and I believe it is all transparent paints. Since 12-pan sets usually have enough room to add two more pans, I also added two individual pans that I thought would be useful. It always gives me such a happy feeling when I see other people enjoying Schmincke! WetPaint still has the commentaries on the various sets in their blog section, if anyone wants ideas for colors they might want to try. 💖
I work with Schminke paints mainly, and I love them, but I didn’t buy a set of them, either so. I bought them all one by one so I don’t know what their sets are like. But the paints themselves, well, I think they rewet very very well, across the entire range with only a couple of exceptions (I recently went through the dot card of the full range and it ways such an eye opener) .. so. Hang on. I don’t even know where I was going with this. Maybe to start off it was a sense of I’m German and I want to use German paints, but finished off with .. I love these, for ease of use and selection, and even though this brand doesn’t have specialty colours the likes of say, Daniel Smith, I love the feel of them. Anyhow. Enough gushing about Schminke paints. 😂
Keep it up dear! Want more cookies? 🍪🍪🍪
This was a great educational video :) Sorry I'm just now getting to it, but thank you for the shoutout!
i know nothing and i learnt so much, i also spend and not use the good stuff..... like my silver brushes..2 and polina bright set.. cant get the good paper seems to be out of stock but i am still afraid to use what i have.. thank you!! for being so real, i still loved the portrait you did of your patron and appreciate you being so candid... so glad i found you.
For next video how about using your most hated art supplies together?
I feel like the problem is the paper- my schmincke palette is my standard one and it works very transparently and delicately on Arches. Is this sketchbook good for watercolors or was it meant for dry media?
the perfect sketchbook has Fabriano Artistico watercolor paper, which is top tier. The problem definitely was the color selection, she did say that having chosen other colors from the palette, the painting would have turned just as good as always:)
Yeah I think it's mainly because of the paper. Regardless of how top notch the quality is according to the brand, that sketchbook looks expired. That's a lot of bleeding.
@@aricranz paper can expire?
Yes! That's why proper storage and/or immediate usage (upon opening) must be done after you have purchased a watercolor journal or paper.
They suck up moisture too. Sometimes the scoring of the paper will not be as good as the fresh one, and pigments might bleed or repel.
@@aricranz thanks for the reply! This is very helpful!
immediately pausing nd i’m grabbing my most expensive supplies and drawing along
Lmao sameeee.
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 yessss!! Awesome!!!! Thrilled to have you draw with me :3
I loved these colors. I've been in a funk and yet somehow just something about the colors in both pieces mixed with youe calm voice made feel very relaxed. Thank you Torii.
ooh that sketchbook looks beautiful! would love to see a video on mixing different skin tones!
I love that you're so transparent about your mistakes and your thoughts. I enjoy so much your videos thank u so much ❤
Such amazing and inspiring drawing, thanks for this video, it is glowing my day
Hey Tori! Thanks so much for this series, it's really motivating and I love just sitting down and seeing you paint :)
I love watching your videos! You’re art is really inspiring to me, and it’s really motivating to get more into art each day! Thank you for doing what you do, and keep up the great work!
Both pieces turned out amazing! You really know your way around skintone colors and palettes.
Perfect! I was waiting for your video today!👌🏽
I have the 48 pan Schmincke set (got one new but with a banged up tin at a great price) and even that lacks a dioxazine purple. I added one from Daniel Smith and it was a massive improvement. Had I known more at the time, I would have also taken a build your own approach, but live and learn 🙂 Honestly thank you for sharing things that don't work out and your lessons learned - it's both refreshing to see that everyone has bad days and educational.
I learned very quickly that with expensive brands I need to be selective instead of sets. I really like purchasing Schmincke’s tubes. I really want to try Daniel Smith but I’m primarily a charcoal artist so I have no need. It would just be a luxury. Haha! I love the study and the message involved with this video. Just because we have the most expensive supplies doesn’t mean we’ll automatically be a pro!
Your painting was gorgeous!!! I love Schmincke watercolors, but every brand has their best/worst colors. From Schmincke, I'm not a fan of their Yellow Ochre (as you discovered). Also, skip their Burnt Sienna! They are overpriced if you buy them in the USA, you really have to buy them over seas. I bought a Limited Edition 12 half pan set with a gorgeous metal tin for $44, at Jackson's Art Supplies in the UK. One of my favorite purchases ever!! So wait for a new palette to try during the holidays and then pick out extra half pans to add to it.
thanks for being so honest! i’m sure it’s not easy talking about something like this especially on the internet so thanks for still being transparent with ur subscribers :>
on another note, on Juicy Ink you had a video during sketchbook video challenge addressing how being able to see the flaws in your artwork is actually beneficial because it helps u know where to improve and i’m so glad you were able to see the good in your experience today.
all the best for the following days!!!!!!! 💕🌟💕🌟💕🌟💕
I adore this series! It's inspiring me to draw. Makes me want to be better and do better! I've even challenged myself to do a sketchbook habit because I haven't been drawing consistently. Thank you Tori!
I actually have never felt too drawn to the schmincke set! Transparent colors are my jam. Cadmiums and ochers are hues I tend to inch away from because of how opaque they usually are. I think I'm more in love with what the mijello paints from last week had to offer.
really love ur art tori! ur my inspiration 😍💛
Oh wow I got sketchbook number 800! That’s 98 sketchbooks after you!
I think it looks wonderful and that there are many more things to explore with the expensive paints than with the cheaper ones, so I want to see more of the good stuff ^^
I'm very happy to see a portrait, and of course I'm interested in seeing more
Do you think you could do a video talking about the pigments in watercolour? They seem essential to making good paintings, but I haven't really looked into them/considered them when i paint. It'd be cool to hear your advice regarding them!
One of the most inspiring things about you is how honest you are about your mistakes, i always remember videos like this when i’m having a bad art day! I’m loving this series so much so far and it’s a great distraction during times like these. I was wondering if you’d be interested in doing an in depth review of your daniel smith watercolors? I have been looking for paints easier to travel with and i’m really interested in them!
Thank you for your video Tori!! I'm happy that I'm joining this journey with you and that I use other media as well, for example, I've used some alcohol based brush markers today while I almost never use them!
I've been considering buying this same Escoda brush you used here, and your video allowed to me to see real size of #6 and how it can be used, thank you. Definitely buying it.
Thank you so much for getting to the Schmincke palette! I’ve been eyeing it feeling like I’ve been missing out but haven’t invested in it since I’ve been buying DS individual colors. Having your feedback on that palette already has been so helpful!
Same here... I have art supply that i don't have the guts to use thinking i use it when i am better artist.... This video taught me bravery....🤓
Anyone else loves how Tori says "I messed it up" while giggling? She's so positive about mistakes.
Oddly I love using my expensive paints. Though I realized this same thing...My schmincke palette has less transparent paints than my other brand palettes Schmincke was a pre-made palette where I purchased my DS and M graham tubes and made my palettes, like my M graham is almost all transparent but I hand selected. This was a good reminder to swatch and double check opacity with some of my newer palettes! For me Paper is my bigger issue so hard to use my Etchr watercolor sketchbooks and my arches paper! Great video. Thank you!
Hey tori!! I love this series so much and it is the highlight of my day! I was wondering how long are you doing sketchbook habit for?
edit: just an idea- I would love if you looked through some watercolors that you haven't used yet for sketchbook habit or something in the future
I think is a 30 days long period
thanks!
Yes! Like her mini palette of Japanese watercolors 😍
I have a mini palette of Japanese watercolors? Not sure which one you’re referring to but even I want to play with that 🤣 mini, Japanese paints? Sounds like a win win
The only palette I can think of is the tiny kuretake paints. I think it was a row of a deep, desaturated green, red, blue, etc. That would be really cool to play with!
This is so interesting! Schmincke is a good stuff for me too! Mom gave me 12 colors set as a present! I truly like them a lot but sometimes I feel like I don't do them justice with my lack of skill
This so cool Tori, the thing I have always appreciated about your videos, reviews and processes is that you are honest. If you mess up you always tell us I love it p.s. it never really looks like you mess up to me lol
Oh wow. That looks really cool. My art supplies are all on a computer. Lol
One day it would be great if you madeca video about mixing colors and pigments. That part when you talked about transparency and pigment, i am sooo not aware of any of those things, or what we should be careful about.
I was looking at this set two weeks ago, as a way of treating myself. but indeed as I looked at the paints in the set and what pigments they actually were (by watching a Denise swatching video), I felt like I wanted to switch out at least half of them or so! Indeed also the yellow ochre because it's more opaque than other brands. So i decided I would start with a Winsor & Newton 12 pan set in a 24 pan tin. This way I can add the colors I want :)
Ahhh It looks amazing! This series is so inspiring. I got the Mijello Mission Gold 24 set and I am super afraid to use it because it is the most I have ever spent on watercolors. My biggest issue with expensive art supplies is I act like I'm wasting them if I fail on a drawing (so there is already tension from the start haha) I need to teach myself that I'm not wasting them because if I don't use them I won't learn how to properly use them.
I never usedthis sketchbook, but from my experience cotton paper tends to dry a bit slower. So the bleeding might be due to the paper not being dry enough and this is why the paint feathers into that area. I liked the video tho! I keep trying to like my schmincke paints, but for some reason I just don't bond with it! Could be that, like you said, it's because I got a pre curated set!
Oh my. Im just waiting today for the delivery of my Schmincke palette . 💖💖💖 IMMM SOOO EXCITED 💖💖💖Thanks for the review 😭💖
I concur with the expired paper... I live in a humid country and I live in a house with firewalls that mold... Too hot in some days, too moist in some. Have had different brands of paper go bad no matter how I stored them
Always love these type of videos! Have you thought about doing a review on the Da Vinci palette you showed in this video?
You are literally using the two pallets I have,twins!
아름다운 그림 멋집니다. 잘보고 갑니다~
For some reason, I've found that the yellow ochres from European brands like Schminke and Sennelier and even Windsor & Newton are more opaque, while Daniel Smith (and I think Da Vinci) yellow ochres and similar shades are more transparent. It somewhat depends on if they're PY42 or PY43 as well. I think the pigment mined in places in Europe are just... more opaque? Also, I'm glad I only tried a sample pack of the Fabriano Artistico paper. Even though it's very high quality watercolor paper, I found that it buckled a lot more than Arches cold press when I am laying down the base washes, which really drove me crazy no matter how much I taped it down or even pre-stretched it. I avoided the Perfect Sketchbook limited edition because of that paper. I see TONS of great reviews about it but maybe other people just don't lay down as much water at a time as I do?
Loved the video even tho it might not have been the perfect sketchbook session! Are you going to use these paints again during this challenge?
I've started my own littler drawing challenge with studies cause of you! Its motivated me to work in my own sketchbook more and I'm having a lot of fun with it. If it's not too much trouble do you think we could get a video on your thoughts about the Turner's paints? I always see the set on sale at Jerry's and I'm tempted to buy them. I know you've used them and talked a little bit about them in the past.
I don't really use the good stuff... presents/gifts and things i bought are just sitting in my drawer, waiting for me to "git gud", make progress with my art so they don't fall to waste when i make a piece i don't like :'D my favorite art supplies are like mid to slightly higher-tier paints and hand sewn sketchbook made of lower tier paper that function as scrap sketchbook that allows me to paint/draw into it without the fear of wasting good supplies... it also works as a challenge to make it work with the better paints (As paper tends to be more immportant in making it work) so when i do get to using the good stuff, it will be easier :D as the saying goes... the more i sweat in here, the less i bleed out there
Tori! It’s almost 1 in the morning! Go to bed!
Hey Tori would you be able to film a video or just have any tips on building value with watercolors? I've been struggling for a while and whenever I go for it it they end up not being strong enough or looking super muddy
i try to use the 'good' supplies but it def doesn't always mean i will end up with something i like in the end lol I do want to try the Schmincke watercolours though, just to see if they are worth using like everyone says they are
OMG crazy prices!!! I am stocked, but then my Copic collection whilst modest comes to about £150 (for me that is a lot of money).
Those I’m frightened of. All I’ve managed to do with them is swatch them.
Trying to find the right paper for them was tricky. I ended on smooth watercolour paper.
Have you used Copic art markers?
I’m a fan
Personally I find the schmincke watercolours to be incredibly muted and a bit dull? I can understand if that’s the style one likes the look of but I definitely don’t see why the palette is so expensive outside of Europe. My white nights and Dan Smith palettes are less expensive and I find myself reaching for those more because the colours in them make me happy. Schmincke and W&M just don’t cut it for me personally.
I saw you also pulled out Denise's palette, I wonder if you will use it next time. And I think I also saw the 12 verison there?
My schiminke set was transparent and layered beautifully on fabriano and arches paper. I wish you could try the watercolour once more cause probably the paper you use might affect it a bit
KoiNeko I have a feeling the paper of the sketchbook maybe expired, it is fabriano artistico. Once the sketchbook challenge is over, I’ll give it another shot on a pad version :3

I Will wait for it >~
@@VictoriaGedvillas paper expires? I feel stupid :O
Actually the Schmincke palette is just very overhyped, it's not as good as people say. I have used it multiple times, but now it lays in a paper box and instead I am using white nights, mission gold and M Graham.
Dioxizine violet from schmincke does not come out of the pan at ALL. Its the only schmincke color I have and I can't use it wich sucks.
Once this challenge is done I'd really like to see a video on how you mix skin tones and what pigments work best for skin because i dont really look at the color information and id just want that explained
That Escoda travel brush was my first brush! I think I got it on super sale from Jerry's for around $23. I... have no idea where it is now. ;_;
also can you do a granulation watercolor video some time this challenge?
I still don't understand why people buy these ready made sets. If I was wanting to give Schmincke a go, I'd buy an empty palette tin, research out the best colours to put in it (starting with warm and cold transparent primaries, single pigment if possible) and then buy tubes to fill the pans.
Why would I buy a set when they always seem to have opaque yellows, cadmium as the warm red and some sort of black?
It's true! Schmincke sets really sucks. I purchased a 12-set and eventually replaced all of them with their transparent counterparts haha! Once you picked up the colors you actually like, every painting session with these paints will be beyond holy grail. 🙌🏻
haha i had the q'or chroma set saved for when i am worth it :)))
Ik you said dont wait up but you know good well that we dont have anything to do tomorrow.
Theo Allen Theoooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💖 💖💖💖
@@VictoriaGedvillas 💗💗💗
Fun fact I tried schmincke a few times but I didn't like it as much so I gifted it to another artist...
Sana ol
Do you use photo reference tori?
yes! this particular video uses a photo reference of my Patron
Could also be the paper! The paper makes a HUGE difference in my experience! Also yeah assuming its one pigment when its a totally different one can be an issue too. Fun video thanks.
I think they came out well, especially for not having tested them before hand. I made myself a custom Schmincke pallette, when I lived in Germany because they are a lot cheaper there. I like the paints, they are very reliable. But I also made the same mistake and purchased the Yellow ochre thinking, it's Schmincke, it must be good? But I do not enjoy it either. I mean its fine, but it's not the kind of yellow ochre I'm used to. So I feel you! It's kind of dull to be honest. If you are thinking of picking up some other Schmincke paints I would recommend Lazur Gelb - I think it's called Transparent Yellow - 209 . It's an azo yellow, sort of like a very yellow green gold. I think you'd like it, it's super punchy! And I think it's pretty unique. It's encouraging to see you pulling out your sketchbook everyday, it's a feat for sure! High fives!
About the yellow ochre from that palette being more opaque than you are used to: schmincke has one of the most opaque yellow ochres you will find. Even Denise agrees it's extremely opaque. Personally I find it gross, I don't like it
FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO LIKES CHEAP WATER COLOR ORDR IN LAZADA IF YOU ARE IN THE PHILIPPINES AND IF YOU ARE ALSO A CHEAPSKATE GO HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES
Silly question but if the sketchbook was purchased back in 2017 then wouldn’t the paper get moldy by now? Is it a fact or a myth that paper get moldy over time? A lot of the time I find that watercolor react differently on my older paper (similar to how your watercolor was reacting)
It depends on the conditions the paper were left in. Since it's only three years and I assume this was stashed away in a drawer in a room with A/C, it should be fine since little to no moisture was introduced.
Not a silly questions, it’s certainly a possibility! Another reason to use up art supplies sooner than later
Thanks for answering my question!
