  • Had a bit of fun painting a more or less monochromatic piece with the new Aquadrop liquid watercolors by Schmincke. How do they look? How do they perform? And while we are at it I explain some techniques that help me constantly with my artwork.

    I love the blue I love the magenta and I have always used drop watercolor. Starting with Dr pH Martin's hydrous watercolor I used to use it in my healing process after my mother died. And then one day not long ago my daughter said Mama why don't you start using a brush and so began my journey into brush research and which ones would be the best for those kinds of watercolors that I was using. I also saw ashiyart on UA-cam and I loved her pictures and she used ecoline. I loved whatever e coli was and it was watercolor it was drop watercolor but you just defined the difference between the kind of color I was using with Dr pH Martin's which I believe is pigment-based and the Econoline and these that you were using are dye based or what I like to call ink. I love them both and surprisingly my Econoline color will mix with ph Martin's on the page and all of that research has brought me to you. I was researching mop brushes and it brought me to that video you just did on the $140 brush and it was kind of the way that I was thinking too it looks just like all of the rest and apparently holds the water just like a cheaper version of it so thank you for the that video as well for being brave to spend that kind of money on that kind of brush and showing us in video that there really is no difference and so anyway I like that new drop color you used I haven't seen yet what country you're in and if it's only available to you and your country. I'm hoping I should be able to get it at blick arts materials or hopefully Amazon I'll look in both places but thank you for this video it is very enlightening and very informed and informative and thank you for showing me yet another technique.
