So look closely because there are clues throughout this vid as to just how many weeks I’ve been working on the one!! Hint: I get a refresh on these every 5 weeks 😂
Any guesses?
Your nails? 😆
I also say nails. That was a huge project that gave me the organizational heebee jeebies at the beginning but resolved into lovely harmony by the end. That was like therapy! Good for you seeing it all the way through!
Hard to guess! I was so enjoying the video I didn’t think about time that you spent! You give so much of your self to us, and I’m thanking you for being my Kitchen Teacher, wish we were sharing a cup of coffee and sharing stories here! Thanks for sharing your talents with me, Karen Dirmish Elmhurst Ill
What a project! With all those pans, it may have been easier and cheaper to make your own bottle of gum Arabic and keep it in the fridge. I make a pint at a time, (with distilled water) complete with clove and orange oil. I love BOTH paintings by the way. Making paint isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s for those who see no boundaries to their creativity.
Been there, didn’t do that. At some point in my super thrifty brain, I realized some of the cheap watercolors on Amazon had nice palettes. So yes, I pried them out and then held onto to them for a thousand years until I had to move at which point I threw them out. Which is a mortal sin, if God is a painter.
Surprisingly so number 1. Didnt think they would be so vibrant! You go girl.
I like both. I love that you invested in this project!
It shows that expensive isn't always where it's at.
Old can can still be cool.
There are elements in both that I love but overall, I think I like painting 2 better. I really like your background in painting 1 but I think it takes attention away from the bouquet rather than support it. I'm glad you did a second one b/c you got a really good feel for how those paints work and play together and I think that better informed your second piece 😊
It definitely did :)
#1. Because I like the background colors. Nice composition on both.
your personality is amazingly beautiful. Your joyfulness brings joy. Please remember that, when life gets rough.
I so appreciate that
Oh...the glue! I love your little plates!
This was very interesting for me. I feel you can't go wrong with recycling crafting items and see what happens.
Glad YOU did this. Now I know that it's absolutely NOT my thing. LOL! It's hard enough carving out time to paint and bridge those creative lull times when I'm trying to climb out of the abyss. Can't imagine investing all this energy into a time-consuming endeavor.
I like both creations. Brilliant & softer. Way to go.
You & your staff deserve gold stars!
Thank you so much 😀
kristy rice if anyone can do this it would be you!!
Ha well I appreciate your confidence in me!!
You are very brave indeed! I'm not so sure I would have completed this task... you done good! Bring on the FrankenPalette! 🎉 Both pictures have merit... I'm drawn to the background of #1, but enjoy the simplicity and quietness of #2.... Very enjoyable!
Thanks so much!!
Wendy, you expressed my thoughts exactly. Thank you.
Wow !!
Recycle, Reuse !!!
Patience is a virtue !!!😊
Yes indeed!
I like 2 the most because the background from 1 takes away from all the cool colors of the mushrooms. In this case the less is more makes me like 2 the most.
I agree :)
I love everything about this! My favorite is painting 2 although both are fantastic. I just like the white space in painting 2 and the colors stand out more. This was such a great idea Kristy. How fun. 🎨🥰
Thanks for chiming in!
I love #2! Simply whimsical. The colors remind me of old illustrations in a fairy tale book.
Oh they do!! Perfect way to describe them!!
Me too, I love the second painting for the same reason.
I adore this so much! Utilizing these and taking the care to conserve their being of use is an honorable task. Mother Earth thanks you! I love both paintings; the second is my favorite. ❤
Wonderful!
I think they are both great but I really love number one. The background really sets off the colors.
Thanks so much! 😊
You have way more time and patience than I do😅
They are great! I'm totally impressed with both.
Time maybe but there wasn’t a ton of patience here!! 😂😂
@@KristyRice Lol!!!
I love your craziness. I love both paintings and I think you are doing a great job in inspiring people all over the world to get into painting without fear. Thank you so much
Thank you so much!
Yes I like! Painting #2 is my favorite of these.
😘😘
Hard decision but I think #1 is my favorite…I can see why you don’t favor making your own handmade paints…not only is it laborious but it doesn’t always come out the way you want…I guess you need the temperament to deal with such a long process…I love that you gave it your best shot and the colors are wonderful…especially that blue and the peach…loved the Frankenpalette project and would like to see some other paintings using them…great video…you’re so much fun to watch👍🤩👍🤩
This is very interesting watching you work and work at saving these dusty old pigments. Personally, I’d have thrown them away. I’d rather have been painting 😂 Bless you for your efforts 🎉
I get that I do :)
Wow, huge amounts of patience need to be added as well.
Yuuuuup!
“I need an aesthetic moment” is something I need to say more often!
The dishes are beautiful.
this is so fun, love the idea of a mushroom bouquet, its so cute ❤
Thanks!!
Yes to the successful palette. Painting 2. 🙏
Thanks for watching!!
Booped. Omg they are beautiful, your art is beautiful. They look like professional paints .
Loving the 2nd cause it's more complete. But no 1 is very nice, too.
😘😘
I love painting #1. The video is educational. I love your Chinatown dishes.
Glad you like them!
Love them both - but #2 is my favorite!!
Two is def taking the lead!!
I love them both.
Only you would think of this!!! That’s why I love you!
😂😂😂
I don’t think I can make a decision on which one I like best. I love them both for different reasons!!! Just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
😘😘😘
Everything you create is magical!
Number 1. Love the background.
I love videos like these!
Reusing and recycling old paints is my jam!
💃🏻
i won't choose!! i love them both!!
Hahaha!!
Thank you for making this paint mixing video so relaxing and therapeutic Kristy. I am sure that you will get a gedillion (?) million of views 😅😊
I hope so!
Very interesting but those tiny bowls are stressing me out! They are super cute though.
Painting 2 is my favorite. The colors work and make a nice painting. They don’t seem as bold. I loved watching you do this video but not something I want to try😊.
Thank you very much!
I really loved painting two the best.
Appreciate that!!
Both of them is amazing
Wow. Just learned making paint is not for me. I was in awe through most of the video because I knew that I would be covered head to toe in paint. The walls, floors, even the ceiling wouldn't be safe. Love your finished paintings. I think #2 is my favorite.
Oh paint def splashed around at times lol!
ooohhh i love them both! i like the colors 🤷♀️
That was a TON of work, my dear. I congratulate you on your energy. The palette looked very interesting, the colours totally unique! Of course only you could tell how well they performed, but the paintings both turned out great, a tribute to your skill and talent! I love them both, the left one is more interesting to me, the right one very bright and clean with the light background. Thanks for the insight into what you can do with old paints.
Thank you so much!
Dear kristy, both are gorjuss! Love the darker moody tones!!❤
Thank you so much!
Painting 2, is my favorite
#2!! And i *adore* the vintage palette!! I love the cute colors ❤
The color palette def grew on me!
I am so very new too, watercolor, I just love you ! You make it so fun 🎉. thank you. I am so loving, watching and learning.
You are so welcome!
I like the second painting best. Love the light airy look. One layer for me. Great Job Kristy!
Thanks so much! 😊
I love your personality and ability to think outside the box. You are delightful to watch.
I like both paintings. 😊 It was very satisfying to see all the pans sorted into colour families. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
I figured it took more than a few days, but wasn't really paying attention to your nails, I was watching the process and the paintings at the end. They both turned out really good, I think the one you painted on the Legion Stonehenge paper I like a little better, it is softer. I think this was successful for sure. A lot of work and bless you for your diligence in making it happen and sharing your process.
Yes, I'm enjoying and eager to see what you create!
Yay! Thank you!
Loving the whimsy of both, but the cleanliness of #2 grabs my Virgo!!!
Love that!
Brilliant paintings
This was fun to watch. Taking color mixing to a whole other Wow level!!
very pretty mushroom bouquet kristy. great job.
Thanks so much 😊
I like painting 1. It’s bold and delicious!
Thank you! Cheers!
It's quite lovely! I'm a beginner (as in never explored the world of watercolor) but I'm absolutely in love with your paintings, your style, your knowledge and your videos are extraordinary! I'm paralyzed with limited hand function so I'm always trying things that make art fun and give me more ability to create art! You're truly inspiring! I can't use my fingers but have always colored/drawn/paint using arm movements. I've binge watched your videos for the past 3-4 days. I'm so intrigued and wondering where has watercolor been all my life through all my creative struggles. On 1 hand I'm intimidated but on the other hand I'm so ready to throw down some paint!
I say throw down.😘😘😘 Glad you’re here :)
Hi Kristy awesome. I did the same with kids watercolor paints. We buy them in South Africa in round cakes, but in a plastic holder. I make my own gum arabic from start, because we have alot of acacia gum trees in South Africa and Namibia where I currently am staying.
I love watching your videos
Vallery
Sooo cool!!
Kristy, I was having a bad day. This video made me laugh. You are so funny. Thank you so much.
I'm so glad!
Loved both but fav is #1 cos I luvs the greens 😊😅xx
oddly satisfying to watch the whole process. glad it's you doing and me watching.
Happy to oblige 😘
Love it! I find one of my joys as a beginner is to just create colors. Mixing and mixing and swatching and swatching some more is incredibly satisfying. The colors you made and the subsequent bouquet of mushrooms is *chef’s kiss* 💋 🎨🍄
I'm so glad :)
What a labor of love! I like both of them and the colors in the palette are appealing- much better results than I was expecting with older paints!
Thank you so much!
Lol Kristy, it’s funny that you should mention the (asmr) paint mulling videos. Such relaxing, esthetic productions. Clean work surfaces, often a cat and a bright window, and a plant nearby. Only the soft sounds of emptying the tube of pigment, the grinding of the powder as it mixes with fragrant fluids… But like you said, if you’re one that occasionally makes their own paint like you and me, you know the mess, the constant cleaning of the plate and the tools, pouring into pans, wiping them off, repouring after the paint has shrunk back. Oh my, do these wonderful people have a muller and plate for each and every color?! Lol We know better. But really, once you get in the groove, it is a wonderful exercise, and yes, your shoulder and bicep 💪🏼 will betray you. 😂
Yesssss!!!
@@KristyRice 🤣🥰
I meant Kristy not Kirsty.. sorry for the spelling mistake..
Painting 2 !!! 🖌️ 🎨❤
I love the faded, vintage look of #2. I could not imagine trying this experiment myself, but it sure was interesting, and fun, watching you! I love your collection of vintage palettes. It’s given me the itch for a thrift store run sometime soon. I will be on the hunt! As always, thanks for the inspiration, Kristy!
Go for it!
I like them both ❤ they have their own charms to be honest❤🎉
This was a really interesting process, while I don’t think I would have had a clue how to even start, I’m glad you did! I am enjoying the heck out of your videos! Off to watch the blue challenge!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this. Painting 2 for me. But truly both are fab!
Of course, you are the one to attempt such a monumental task and be so successful! Loved painting two the best.
Thank you so much!
Fascinating!! Cool antique colors!! #2!
Kristi you came out with some beautiful colors 😍
Oh thank you!
Definitely painting two for me
Thanks!
Really fun project!! I think yay!! You will probably enjoy these colors a alot ..I just love both of your paintings.
Great video! I think the artwork is beautiful. My favorite one is the colored background.😊👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I like both paintings but if I can only pick one of them number 2 is my favorite. ❤️ Also can I just say the little Frankenstein graphic made my day cause I'm such a child at heart it was adorable.😂
yes, interesting to see if this works
I love # 2.
Painting 2 for me definitely 😂❤
Can't wait to see the results. So interesting.
This looks like so much fun!! I actually like painting number 1 on arches paper it's probably because of the brighter bolder colors and that amazing blue green background, of course everything you paint is quite amazing and beautiful even the quick practice sketches. Thanks for sharing! You know what might make a super cool giveaway, right? Yep, you guessed it, a palette of these paints...trust me your subs will go banana with excitement 😄
Happy Painting!!
Good idea!!
I would have enjoyed a couple if videos showing the process snd the paintings. I especially love the second painting. I am like you and tend to fill up the whole page life the first one.
Absolutely successful! I like painting 1
I loved this video. Such a cool project. I liked painting 2 best
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved painting 2! Also really enjoyed your process, love old tines but don’t think I’d go through this process unless I had too! Meaning never go to a paint store again! Love watching you create and teach, but my chemistry days are over! Happy New Year, Karen Dirmish, learner
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks like it was a success. Both paintings look good!
Thank you! Cheers!
You're welcome! 😊
Totally enjoyed the process.
Yay!!
Love ‘scadillion’!!!
Fun paintings! Two is my fave
Thanks!!
Wow, you and Kristen (sp?) did a ton of work with those chips! I like both paintings but maybe painting two just a little bit more. 😊
Yes! Thank you!
Oh my gosh, Kristy! I just LOVE you!! I am a fairly new subscriber to your channel and find myself bing-watching your videos. This was AMAZING! I’m a beginner to watercolour and just last night started your video devoted to exactly that. My chart is ready to go, I’m starting tonight. You totally inspire me 🤗 YES! Absolutely, the Franken Palette is totally awesome! I loved both paintings but slightly preferred the way the colours looked on the Stonehenge paper. So wonderful to watch the whole process. Thank you ❤️👏✨💫
Noce. I like painting 2. Successful Frankenpalette for sure. I think you would have had an easier time if you popped the dry paint chips in a coffee grinder first, then rehydrated the powder, though, but it all worked out in the end.
Ohhhh that could have worked!🤦🏻♀️
