Hello, darling! Thnxx for your lovely comment. I'm moved that you have become inspired. & lol, I didn't realize how I take the pans out. Twinsies!

Of course! & thank you for watching and commenting, dear. I love that Kuretake puts both the Japanese and English names on the back of their pans. Happy art times to you!

Hello, darling. Thnxx for your comment! Yes, the paint colors can be irresistible. I have recently learned that they are used by both hobbyist & professionals. But I can understand your point of view. Happy art hunting!

These are professional watercolor. The ages long argument has finally ended. They are just not Western. I do hope that some painters will get up to speed on the point. These are not student or craft grade. I have many, many brands of professional watercolor. They all behave uniquely by formula. Pigments are pigments.

Hi, darling! I used Sakura Micron in black and green. I also use blue pencil lead. Hope that helps!

No worries, darling. This is video was not intending to dive into the topic of Art Nouveau, but rather a quick overview of a paint palette that was inspired by the art period. Hope you found what you were looking for.

yes!! sounds like you're watercolor drawers have the right idea. hehe. thnxx for commenting!! 😸

hurra! thnxx for the comment, darling!

my pleasure! so happy you enjoy, thnxx for your comment, darling!

o! thnxx so kindly. I'm glad it brought you to letting me know you love the palette! i used a select colors from the Kuretake's Art Nouveau set. much Love! xx

thnxx for your thoughtful comment, darling! Yes, I noticed a decline in quality of their other series as well. Maybe they will improve on that paper quality for their watercolor album, but I think it's time to look elsewhere, for sure. What a bummer that the Strathmore 500 series travel sketchbook has been discontinued. I haven't tried the Viviva, but I see that they have a sketchbook with 140lb 100% cotton, cold press pages (I'm guessing that's that one?). It sounds promising., I'll check it out! In the meantime, I am using the Etchr Lab sketchbooks. I broke into the cold press and it's absolutely lovely so far. I have yet to break into the cold press. Worth checking out! & I will be reviewing these in the future. Much Love, darling! xx

aw, that's awesome! as I'm still learning video editing, it has been fun to trial & error and then finesse. thnxx for letting me know you're into it. xx

thnxx for the suggestion, darling!

@@diazee 💗💗

Ah! that's awesome; isn't is lovely? thnxx for the comment, darling! xx

🙏✨

o! exciting! Welcome back to the world of Kuretake gansai tambi! May the comeback be enjoyable. Thank you for leaving your thoughtful comment. & I hope you found some juicy videos.

I would choose hues over cadmiums thinking they would be likely to be healthier and more environmentally friendly 😊

@@emmahaslam1905 The hues are not very lightfast though so if you're an artist who sells original works the art will be faded and ugly within a year or two of being hung on a wall :( - cadmium is always better!

@@NoelleFerneit really does depend on the pigment being used as a substitute. I believe a lot of brands are using pyrrols instead of cadmiums and Daniel smith (which is a respected and well loved brand) has started using only hues of those colors so I believe that goes to show how strong they are as contenders. Sure they’re not AS lightfast but they’re not horribly fugitive like lake pigments 😭 not to mention they’re more affordable & safe. If they weren’t toxic I’d always go for them but unfortunately that’s not the case 💔

My pleasure! & double thnxx, darling. xx

O! Goodness, aren't they worth it? I actually was just thinking about the Art Nouveau set and checked my local art shop for them and they had it. (Catskill Art Supply, NY). I hope they become more available in the UK. Perhaps, you could ask your local art shop to order it? Thnxx for the comment, darling! & happy painting. xx

So awesome! Yes, I really love them, too! Thnxx, darling!

I use pentel HB lead and the sketchbook is Moleskine Watercolor Art Album. The paints I use are Kuretake gansai tambi. I just tried a wash of the paints over my pencil drawing one day and it didn't smear; I've been using this method ever since and I love it. It also works well on nicer paper as well, such as Arches hot press watercolor paper. Hoper this helps! & thnxx for your comment, darling! xx

Yes! I think I need to try the HB lead and see if that helps!

Thnxx so much for your thoughtful comment! I'm happy the work made a good impression on you.

Yes, me too! They're fantastic. Thnxx for sharing, darling! ♥

Thnxx so much for your comment, darling! Yes, they are definitely a messy medium. I can understand why one might not want to use they for that reason. & thank you so kindly!! I appreciate it. xx

Thnxx. 🔥

Thnxx so much for your thoughtful comment. I am glad that Dónie's style came through. It was so fun making this drawing. xx

Hi! Thnxx for sharing a comment. Yes! I have not yet purchased them individually, but I have not seen them in any of my local art shops is why. But if you want to, you can find many of the colors on Jet Pens online. That's where I plan to purchase my refills. Here's the link: www.jetpens.com/Kuretake-Gansai-Tambi-Watercolors-Single-Pans/ct/4089?pn=2 If you come across a better way to access the single pans differently, let us know. Good luck! x

Such good news! They are really lovely paints.

O, how exciting! Hope that you had lots of fun swatching! The colors are truly beautiful. x

thnxx so much! ✨✨✨

thnxx so much! I will put it on the list. ✨

Thanks for your comment, @vivinightskater! <3 I sell my original artworks. Here's a link to my miniature tree portrait paintings: diazee.art/work/mystery-miniatures/collection

@alexandrakarns1294, thank you so kindly for you comment! I appreciate it. Welcome to the world of watercolor; may you have much fun and fruitful results! <3

@kterade thank you so much for your comment! The paints are great when layering. I also used Gelly Roll by Sakura to create the patterns. O! Yes, the font is so fun. It's called TAN Nimbus. Take note of the capitalization. Thanks again!

Kimrick on youtube has a lightfast test for these where you can see that a lot of colors are sadly not lightfast

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Patty. In my experience the paints have not shown any noticeable fading. However, I am aware that some sources argue that some of the paints in the 48 set do fade over time. The manufacturer also mentions that lightfastness is possible depending on how much water you dilute the paint with. Doing some more research, I've found that all watercolor fades over time, but this can be significantly slowed by framing your artworks behind conservation glass and keeping them out of direct sunlight. Also, thank you so kindly for your comment, Patty. I appreciate it.

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, @pinkcloud3126 I completely get where you're coming from regarding the lightfastness of the watercolors. It's true that the manufacturer states that the colors are lightfast, but may fade depending on how much water you use to dilute them. You're right in that some independent tests and reviews suggest that some of the colors are not lightfast. Particularly, shades like reds, orange, pinks, and purples. Which seems to be the case for watercolors over all. From my side, I've been using these paints at home for a couple years now, and I've been lucky not to see any noticeable fading. But you make a great point - lightfastness can indeed vary depending on factors like how much sunlight the paint is exposed to, and the specific hues used. I really value your perspective on this, and I hope my experience adds a bit more insight to the discussion. Thanks again for bringing this up!

Thnxx so much! & welcome to my channel. 🫶✨

Haha, you're right; the trees probably aren't surreal. Perhaps, I should call these Whimsical Miniature Tree Portraits. Or just Miniature Tree Portraits. I appreciate you mentioning that I've honed a style. Tnnxx!
