      @@WatercolorElisabetta I never quite understood the difference between them. And I never noticed that British manufacturers use the term light red. It never occurred to me that light red might just be English Red. I could be wrong though, W&N’s English Red I’d rather like a reddish ochre.

    Love Love Love the earth reds! Also the umbers and ochres. I've been on a transparent red oxide kick lately. There's something special about where the pigments are sourced and the energy of the land. You might like Roman Szmal's Blue Ridge Raw and Burnt Sienna from the mountains where I live here in the US! I really like the Pompeii Red that you swatched, maybe because of the granulation. I bet the English Reds are sourced in England. Just a guess. I know there is Leister and another source there that I can't recall. 😊 This pigment collecting is quite a hobby 😂 There's something very primal about it. I'd love to see any comparisons you do! Great video! ❤
    At the moment I'm enamored with M. Graham's Transparent Red Oxide, an incredible mixer, and Armenian Mummy Red from Arkaar. Also Michael Harding's Burnt Sienna and Yellow Ochre, but that's another rabbit hole 🐇😅

    I never cared for any of the earth colors when I first started watercolors....actually, any opaque or semi opaque paints. 😂 I now find them to be some of the most interesting pigments available.

    Those orange ochres are gooooooorgeous. I love them. I would use them as the only orange color in my palette. I must say though, I know RS are trying to expand their selection, but so many of their colors seem so similar to me.
    I have the Venetian Red pigment, and it separates out from the binder so fast. It is better to use it from the pan. I do love it, though. I agree that sticky and soft paints are nicer to paint with. I hate scrubbing pans. I also have red ochre, but I didn't make it yet so don't know what it looks like. I will check your video again once I have everything.
    Thanks for the video as always

    I used to have an English Red in my Akademie Palette and I have Burnt Sienna in my large Horadam Palette (both PR101; I don't think Schmincke use PR102 at all in the Horadam range), but not in my "favourites" palette and I do miss having a red earth pigment. Like you say, it's great for mixing! :)

    Thanks for this. I'd be most interested in a comparison. My favourites- out of a ridiculously large collection- are W & N Light Red PR 102 and M.Graham Terra Rosa PR 101. I find some of the Venetian Reds too opaque as mixers and many of the English Reds are too orange for my tastes.

      @@WatercolorElisabetta My excuse is that aiming toward a limited palette that truly expresses my subject/style/vision each colour has to be exactly right for me, not just in shade but also in handling, formulation and reliability. That's the theory anyway, even if my curiosity often leads to excess !

    I can't tell the difference between English, Indian and Venetian reds. They are the same to me, so I would be very interested in a video about it. Thank you very much again
