  • Today I will review the latest 5th generation of Paul Rubens YouLan Artist Watercolours, which are a set of 24 half pans in a gorgeous pink tin palette. I also received some of their 100% cotton rag watercolour paper, which has glitter in it! Are these supplies as lovely as I think they will be? Let's find out!
    Video includes unboxing, swatching and paintings.
    Paul Rubens sent me these items for free to try and and review, but I am not being sponsored so all opinions are my own.

    Lava shark is the best! Do do do do do do do! lol Okay, the want monster finally got his way over these! I got the bundle where for less than $10 more, it also includes a 100% cotton watercolor journal or block. I let the want monster have his way because I don't have any Paul Rubens paints and of course, now I can make my own lava shark.... all proceeds will go to the Lava Shark Conservatory in your name. 🤣🦈

      Lava Shark definitely needs friends! Want Monster can be very demanding at times, but I think in this case, the demands are fair. I hope you love your new watercolour goodies! I don't own any of their journals, but if the glitter paper is anything to go by, those should be great too!

      @@BeckyTregear I have had a couple of the journals and they all seem to be hot press, so I don't think they would be something you would enjoy as much as I do. I love them for plein air because I do line and wash or gouache. I find hot press much better for that situation. But if it's a straight up watercolor piece, I am in agreement that cold press is the way to go, especially with anything that granulates. OMG, you had me laughing today, btw. Bitey and burney.....haha And I totally LOL'd when you said something about human error that you can't make go away. Hahaha..... That is my life!

    Hi, Becky! Your joy on opening that pretty tin is infectious - I had a big smile, sensing that joy!
    The rushes in the foreground of the sunset absolutely made that painting, The second one - Lava Shark and your commentary was superb. It's so _goood_ when imagination takes over, isn't it!
    I agree with other comments: Lava Shark needs companions, and LavOctopus, LavaFish, Lava Seahorse, LavaCrab and their friends and relations are already standing by your shoulder waiting for you to bring them to life.
    I think that it creates real difficulties with all these different generations following each other fairly close upon one another, and I find myself wishing that the company would take more time in the research, process and testing stages, so that they get it right before release. How many artists are out there, buying these 'new' generations, only to discover the same colours, pigmets that they already have and have been happy with?
    Watching your side by side work, I saw plus and minus on both palettes, some better, some not so good - especially that red, which looked far more vibrant in the 4th than in the 5th.
    Finishing on a positive, though, I agree, from what I have seen on ArtTube of Paul Reubens products, that apart from the generation thing, they do seem to be good paints. 😊
    Edited for typing errors.

    • @BeckyTregear
      @BeckyTregear  Před 19 dny

      I agree that the multi-generational thing gets very confusing! I think 4th and 5th are very similar to each other so I'll just use the 4th gen tubes to fill up any 4th or 5th gen pans that run low. Honestly how soon is that going to happen though, when I have so many paints to get through in my collection? 😂 I'm really happy with their products so far though; that paper was astonishingly great! I've already done another lava-shark sketch in one of my books so it's still on my mind. More characters are needed, for sure!
