Thank you Kristy
My hubby keeps wondering why I NEED so many different kinds of paints. I just point out that the pallets are significantly smaller than shoe boxes.
🤣🤣 definitely less expensive than Jimmy chu 😎
So true! Lol!
Stealing that response lol😂
I always point out that my most expensive pallet (my Schminke paints) are still cheaper than 1 designer handbag.
They are all so different!!! I need different paints for different things!
I want to thank you. I suffer from depression and find it near impossible to create when I'm in these phases but watching your videos helps me keep the want to create alive. I'll get through this and be putting color on paper again. In the meantime this is inspiring and comforting.
Appreciate your words so much. I'm cheering you on :)
My favorites are Poems about You (I have a large collection). I’ve been intrigued by the 31 Purplefish. They are difficult to get, but as long as you’re on their email list, she sends out notices as to when she has them available. My other favorite is Pfieffer Art Supply. Hers are quite nice.
Wonderful!
I find that if I start refreshing the 31 Purple Fish site 10 minutes before the release is supposed to happen I have pretty good luck getting everything I want because stuff tends to go up slightly early.
I just visited a little shop in Sedalia, Missouri. I met the owner who makes hand made watercolors. After talking with her for a while, she painted a little sample for me and sent me home with my own sample to play with. I told her that her paints reminded me of something Kristy Rice would like. Her eyes twinkled and she said Kristy had, indeed, tried and liked her paints. I searched for hand made paints and yes, indeed, Artistic Isle was featured and was the number one recommendation that you said to try out hand made paint. So cool!
Oooh my gosh!! What a small world!! Yes I ADORE her paints!!!
31 Purplefish and Poems About You have been my jam for quite some time now. I love giving my money to these small businesses! They put so much love and care into their paints and you get the most amazing and unusual convenience colors from them, too.
Case in point: Poems About You's Azo Green. It's the most spectacular color I've ever used in watercolor, hand's down.
💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
I just started making my own watercolors…..it’s been fun…..foraging my own backyard fire pit and wild non edible berries etc in my yard for pigments….it’s fun fun
Thank you for including me in this video 🥰🥰 feeling the love 🥰🥰
Of course!!
you HAVE to try prodigal sons, Michael Harding and Stone ground as well as Beam paints.
Prodigal sons is like Kermer pigments, but more concentrated and their customer service is bar none SO amazing! They also have very rare and historical pigments like Genuine naples yellow as well as lead white. Greg the owner, is just SUCH a wonderful person!
Stone grounds pans are like little gems! and highly concentrated their genuine lapis lazuli is INSANE its like oil or acrylic paint almost!
Beam paints are highly concentrated and modern earthy.
Michael Harding, their watercolors are very much like their oil paints in that they both are quite similar in pigment load (which is so much) and consistency. The flesh tones you get from their french yellow ochre, rose madder and warm white are Bougerou like! so lifelike.
I have stone ground but it’s from yearrrrs ago! Also recently started using Beam! Now Prodigal Sons??? New to me!!! *googling excitedly
@@KristyRice enjoy :) just a heads up Greg is taking some time off due to some health issues but in April he will be back in full force with watercolors :)
but do give Michael Harding a ring, like you I started off with winsor newton, (I still have old winsor newton stock from 1999. and a cirrus kolinsky sable brush from back then that still points very well and holds ABUNDNCE of color! i used to have a series 707 kolinsky sable size 14 but it was just too big for me and I didnt paint THAT big with kolinskys so I gave it to a friennd after it was so hard to sell. .) but they have dwindled much and their only viable colors to me are Aurelion, Rose madder genuine, Yellow ocher and cerurelean blue. Michael Harding is what Winsor newton used to be.
also Della magna's colors are chefs kiss epecially their fra angelico blue OMG !!!
Wow! They all have great points. Love the butterfly palette. Also the ceramic palette.
Right?!
I have only tried 31 Purplefish, but they are beautiful paints. I have 2 palettes, and I’m going to need to make a third for the grab bags I recently ordered. They’re so fun!
I love handmade paints because you get colors you wouldn't normally see or know about.
HOW!!!!! your breath control always blows me away
It’s not one take lol
Poems about you and Regina's look just beautiful
Number 8 is breathtaking
I'd so been hoping to seem Beam Paints included, since I saw those for sale on your website! I was turned on to them from a FB group, and I LOVE them. I have about 6 actual paint stones, and have a few of the collection sample cards. I've used those samples to paint over 40 holiday cards, and a couple of gifted paintings, and am just running low on my favorite colors. I am, however, a beginner, with little to compare them to, lol. I still have a difficult time rewetting to get enough paint, lol. I love the color options, and how they've come out.
I'd love to hear/see review of them on your channel!
You must be talking about my wife... Sending you that notification!!! 😂. Cause I'm still here, soaking it all up... However, I know to stay within my budget!!! But she still sees product arriving!!!
🤭
This was a gorgeous video friend! And also, wow your channel is jivin’!
Thank you so much! 😘😘😘
I love Addison & Sedgwick handmade paints. And I just purchased some from Beam that I am excited to try and was glad to support a small Indigenous brand.
vert de gris is the green color that copper turns to as it oxidizes
Ooooh love it!!! Thanks!!!
Girl, you make me smile & laugh at times. Awesome review. Many of these watercolor are just awesomely looking & I never knew of them; of course I’m not a true artist, only a wannabe. I always love your art & wanna be like you when I grow up😂🤣
No wannabes here!! Thanks for watching!!
31purple fish.....loooove them..but now I want to try some that you have mentioned
Sorry😂😘
That butterfly palette is so beautiful. That one is probably the most tempting to me.
I get that!!!
I love them all!
Hello Kristy … I love your videos. I have learned so much from you and it’s always encouraging when I put you on my TV set to see all the beautiful colors and techniques that you use watercolor is new to me so I’m loving it I bought your brushes and your paint set .love love love again. Thanks so much.
I'm so glad!
I love Mashas & 31 PurpleFish! They make me excited about painting!
The one I got most excited was the Wallace Seymour watercolors. I like more natural looking colors and lots of movement so... It seems to be perfect for me.
But I got curious about Masha’s Watercolor. I hate granulation and I like my watercolors very transparent, but granulation without texture? I'm curious and might try.
So happy to see a French makers on the list!! I love her paints too ❤
The best!
Just plain thanks for being the funny honest creative you. Boop
I love 31 Purple Fish paints as well, currently I have 74 of her fabulous colours in my palette. Artistic Isle paints are also so much fun an I love the limited run mini ceramic palettes she does that she also fills with paint.
That is awesome!
I absolutely love Regina’s watercolors!!!
👍🏻
I love Designs by Rachel Beth but also love ArtisticIsle watercolor. Both sellers package their items so beautifully. While ArtisticIsle is more expensive she does give great little gifts to say thank you. I am absolutely jealous of the paint palette you have from ArtisticIsle watercolor. It is beautiful but I can’t afford $175. I wish I had saved my money from my other items I bought from her to buy that one.
Just ordered a Letter Sparrow palette. Something about the name.
I know right!!!
Handmade watercolors definitely bring joy! I have a set from Created by Cherub and I looooove them!
Wallace Seymour and Boulder Color
So much fun!I like the palette that you swatched on.
Adore handmade water colors ! Thank you Kristy !
You are so welcome!
excellent 👌👌 explanation superb paletting amazing 😍😍 brush strokes stunning art work with extraordinary skills thankyou so much
Thank you so much 😀
Kristy, Kristy, Kristy... here I am having just put in an order with an artisan in India and you are introducing me to a few I hadnt discovered yet. Eek. I love trying new handmade paints. You just never know... I've met pigments and colors I didnt know I needed. Id love to be that person with the limited pallet in the cute tin that they take everywhere but a limited pallet to me is 24😊.
I love Masha's and Poems About You!
I really like the one with the butterfly palette 🎉🎉🎉but I’d like to try 31 Purple Fish 👍
Masha’s are hands down my favorite maker! She’s kind, she maker her own paint and palettes she is AWESOME 🥰🥰 WORTH IT!! I’ve invested in hers and LOVEEEEE THEM! 🥰🥰
Gah that palette!!!
Lol. The wig. 😂
My first day of school in kindergarten apparently I started screaming about the teacher “she’s a witch! She’s wearing a wig!” “Don’t leave me here mommy!!”
Oooh sorry boo! Just getting my Bob on!!!
@@KristyRicelol
I'm definitely going to give one of these a try when I get a little bit of spare money.
They all look absolutely stunning.
I hope you do!
I'm thinking I would buy these just to avoid more plastic in my house
I've been wanting to try handmade watercolours for a while so this comparison is really helpful ☺
Glad it was helpful!
Pigment salts? Thats so cool Id never heard of that before! Thanks for your video, I learned new things today! I definitely want to try Boulder and Regina's ❤️
You are so welcome!
The pigment salts are super fun but she does recommend a UV sealant because they are not lightfast at all.
ver de gree is the name for the greenish patina that copper gets over time I believe. and I am sure I butchered the spelling [I should've looked it up, sorry]
I'm so excited. Your No Fear brushes just arrived!! I absolutely love your first brush set and I can't wait to use the new set.
Hope you enjoy it!
It's so cool that there are organic watercolors and non plastic palettes! 👍 I haven't been watching you long, but I know you collabed with Sarah Renae Clark, who also collabed with Josie Lewis. I don't think she makes her travel palette, but it is a collection of her favorite rainbow colors. 🌈 She loves watercolor art even though she is known for her chunky art! 🌊 Another artist I am aware of is Deborah Muller, who is known for her coloring books. She is creating her own watercolors to sell on her etsy shop. I'm just helping you find more to add to your collection! 😉😂
And I love you for it!!!
@@KristyRice You're very welcome! 🤗
I am from Canada. I am excited to participate in your give away today. I would be using the brushes to paint flowers. I am a beginner at watercolor and hope the new brushes will help out. Thank you for your review of this package of supplies. Beautiful colors and brush shapes. Thanks again Margot
Ahhh your videos are inspiring me to create 😊
Go for it!
Kristy, you are the greatest. I have abundance issues. I want them ALL!
I also have abundance issues lol!
You give the best descriptions of watercolor sets. I just bought some Holbien tubes. But love these sets. Thanks for your demos. You are such a good watercolor artist
Thank you so much!
I LOVE them all😊
Me toooo!
Great video! I want them all!
Thanks for watching!
Brand-spankin' new to painting & watercolor. Love your channel! 🎉 💜
Thanks so much 😊
Ooohhh Boulder Colors pigment salts are amazing!
They are!
You need to try the Dusty Bee Handmade watercolor paints (Portland, Or.) they are DELICIOUS....to paint with of course!
Hey Kristy. I think the only handmaid, watercolor palette I’ve ever bought is yours. I do love it along with your brushes total wow. I like almost all the pallets that you showed on this video. I’m more of a bright color though. Still learning only been painting for about six months. My nursing takes up so much of my time. I don’t really get to practice as much as I want. It’s driving me crazy.🤪 love your channel. Thank you so much. Love you Kristy.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you Kristy - where did you get the swatch pages? They are so cute
Following
Wondering too!
Same question! Love those ❤
RIGHT!! Adorable swatch pages 🥰🥰
I designed them myself. But am working on developing a set of stamps!!!!
Regina’s are made with Dr Martins concentrated watercolor.
Whaaa? Really!
I think all of them are beautiful 😍. That's why I said idk there are so many of them. I am also new at this, too. Now I know a little bit more about what I am looking at. I think it would be real hard to pick a favorite.
🥰🥰
Wonderful!
Thanks for the great info! 31 purple fish is sold out…bummer. But lots of other great ones to choose from!
She does drops alll the time! Sign up for her email list:)
I have one set of handmade watercolors. They come in a little wooden palette. A friend bought them and didn’t like the granulation. The colors are dark and muted. With the exception of 2 metallics. I wish there was a peach/beige in the palette. But I do love the grays, dark greens, and muted purple.
Thanks for sharing!!
Just ordered from Masha's. I am in love. Thanks for the demo!
You are so welcome!
@@KristyRice For the love of all things holy, how can I get my hands on some 31 Purplefish! I missed out today. sosososososad. I did get paints from Masha's, and they are fabulous
I ❤ your poetry!! I already love Letter Sparrow and 31 Purplefish, but I just paused the video and ordered some Masha's watercolors...my credit card is a bit scared for me to hit play...🤣😂
...dang it...Octarine lured me in.....
You will LOVE!! Masha’s ! Anything you get from her ALL MAGICAL 🥰🥰
Octarine is incredible!!!
Your descriptions are so fun!
@Kristy Can you put a UV spray on watercolor to assist in lightfastness?
Yesss! I mention it in a video, need to find it :)
@KristyRice Great. I always wondered. I get uv glass. Thanks for your wonderful and joyous videos❤️
I use the Krylon UV resistant spray.
@@alexandrasartinsanity OK. Thank you. I saw that at Michaels.
Handmade watercolors make me nervous because I'm never really sure about the light fastness!
I’m happy to provide any additional formation regarding lightfastness. Due to our watercolors being pigment based most colors are of excellent lightfastness. 🥰 hope this helps.
I get that. Reach out to the makers and they will definitely get you more info.
Thanks ladies 😌 I appreciate the both of you 😊💖
Lots of brands are starting to list pigment and lightfastness info in their product descriptions. I find that for shops that don’t most are willing to give the information if you message them privately.
13- purple fish draws my eye
As it should! Lol!
OHHH I love that Masha color shift! I can't stand granulation (of single colors). The texture looks like cheap paper. But I like 2 tone granulation. If I can have the later without the former!!! Perfect.
Right?! I love all of it but yesss!!
@@KristyRice I know im a curmudgeon😆 . no offense to gran lovers.
I may not have left my heart in San Francisco, but I left some money in France!!! 😊
😂😂😂best comment!!
@@KristyRice 🤣
The mountain river and 31 purple fish
I love Beam and Genzah! Have you tried those?
Hello from Belgium! I love the Reginas !.. `I love the swatchcard with the palette on it… where can we find those?
Working on making it available! Sign up for email updates kristyrice.com
I want them all😊😅
31 Purple 🐠
❤️❤️
Baohong and Meeden are absolutely the same paper repackaged.
What is
Your favorite brand of all
Time? Also can you review supervisions new paint series? They have new ones that are supposed to be lightfast but not sure if that’s a fact:-)
you HAVE to try aloha watercolors if you haven't already! i literally don't use anything else.
I have one set and yes they are lovely :)
Kristy have you tried Blue Pine arts? I have seen other YTers review them ( mainly UK based , Natasha Newton ) but wanted your opinion on it.
Not yet! But I need to!
Masha’s paints 💓
I agree 🥰
Yesss!!
Do you sell the paint sample sheets with the different designs?? I luv them!!
I do!!
kristyrice.com/products/swatching-pages/
I am tempted by Octarine.
Yeaaahhhhh sooo worthy lol!!
Do you have a list of where we can get these home made want colors?
In the description :) Limited time discounts in the pinned comment
Unfortunately it looks like 31 Purple Fish may not be producing anymore :(
I believe she is just pausing production on tubes but her pans are still available :)
Can you give me an idea of price?
Thank you I love your videos
Where are all these only available on line or where can we buy
What is the Artistic Isle palette called that your using?
Something like legendary or ….? I think it might currently be sold out
What stamps do you use for your swatches?! I have a few waffle stamps, but the leaves and flowers are so cool!
These were printed sheets but I'm working on developing a set of stamps!!!
@@KristyRice I’d buy the sheets… do you sell them? I love swatching but LOATHE making the charts!
I don't know why it's so weird for me to hear people from out of state talking about Coachella!!! Cause it's in The middle of nowhere!!! I never heard about Coachella, until 2 years after I moved to Riverside County!!! 😂
31 purplefish
Hi from uk can I buy your brush set in the uk ?
You can from kristyrice.com or search your Amazon :)
I have a question… Recently, I bought a whole slew of van Gogh, watercolor tubes. I added them to a new pallet and left that open to dry. It has been four days and they’re still a little sticky/cool damp to the touch. Is this normal? I also noticed that some of them have separated from the binder. I assume that will be just fine, but even after stirring them in the well they still separate. Is it possible? I got them on sale because they are just simply old? Lol thank you for your help. Anybody who has an answer.
That is normal for some paint formulations and/or brands. Some are just softer and never fully cure. The separation is somewhat common across the board. Nothing to really worry about and will disappear as you rewet the paint before using :)
I have tried several times to get purple fish. NEVER have they been available,so what is the point of including them?
If you are curious from a makers standpoint a favorite.. my hands down favorite maker other than myself 😂 is Masha!! She is INCREDIBLE 🥰🥰 hope this helps 💛
31 does drops on Friday. If you are ready to purchase on Friday you shouldn’t have issues snagging some :)
😘😘😘
They are definitely hard to get, I lusted after them for 2 years before I actually managed to get any but they are worth the hype. I think her Etsy releases are probably easier to purchase from them her shop releases but it is definitely possible to get shop release colours if you are on right at launch time.
Boop
😘😘😘
Too muchhh talking urrrgh it’s boring
It’s okay stop watching anytime :)
A Triple #Boop ! For Magickal paints !! 😅✨️🍭🧩🎲🧩🪄🪬
