That's a great question, and there are a few reasons. Primarily, I don't want to have more tools that will need to be cleaned when I'm done. I also don't want to lose any residual paint that I can't completely transfer from the bowl to the slab. The mulling has to happen on the slab because it's a process that requires pressure between two abrasive surfaces. A bowl might work for the initial mixing in of the pigment, but I don't believe it would actually make the process any easier. It's not like dissolving sugar into water. It's more like emulsifying oil and water. Just takes time and pressure. :] Thanks for asking!
@@emptyricebowl O,O huh... I never thought to try out that way :D sounds better than paying for a roughed up glass plate that costs way more than I am confortable with. Thank you :)
Paint making videos are kind of like cooking shows for me. I don't really want to make the stuff myself, but I'm so fascinated by the people who take the time to master the craft! I admire your patience!
this is all so interesting, i wish i had the work space (also energy lol) to do something like this haha. thanks for sharing your process~! I heard gouache is made by adding more white, though i wonder if it'll be harder to control the saturation that way.
Oh gosh, thank you Qinni!! I think gouache may have a specific chalk ingredient that increases the opacity while maintaining saturation! I saw it made that way once, at least. Thanks so much for checking out the video - I genuinely admire your work and I hope you're doing well. ❤❤
@@arleebean High quality gouache is often ground less fine and has less binder to pigment than watercolour, and has no added chalk too! Dunno if that is helpful in any way. I'd be so excited to see you make gouache!
It's so sad seeing your comments qinni,, knowing that you aren't here anymore, may you live on in the smiles, laughs and many memories you have created by sharing your content & inspiring, amazing pieces. Its been months yet I'm still waiting for you to come back, why'd you have to leave us so soon? Rest in peace qinni. - a beloved old fan x
Rest in peace, may you forever see great things and eat great food. You inspired so many people and will inspire many more. May you have a good afterlife.
I think the amount of mulling you had in this video was perfect. It didnt feel too long and it was SO satisfying and relaxing. I love watching these. It makes me want to try it someday
Me too! Also Crayola. My mum was warming her iron. I melted that red crayon on the iron. Completely captivated as it melted down. I realized I should stop. Mum was not happy when she discovered that!!!!
I had no idea people do this, very admirable and impressive, it gives you a perspective of what the old masters had to go through, they were masters for a reason, but back then they had to make their paint and had all the time in the world and not many distractions, great video!
They definitely didn’t have the time, there just wasn’t another option. They’d have guilds of people and very small children mixing up multiple colors at once. In later periods, maybe they had time but I doubt it either. I think they just did all the mixing and would keep tweaking it. They may not have distractions from phones but they definitely had all types of distractions. Human brains can make distractions.💀
honestly the more mulling you share, the more i understand the reality of making paints. this is an adventure i want to take one day, so please share with us. because its definitely therapeutic too.
It wasn't blue? I have read the contrary: that red, white and black are the easiest colors to do, and that's why they have so much symbolic meaning in fairy tales and mythology.
@@blakcnagisa01 it's blue in fact - or bright yellow at the very least. Red was probably the easiest color to obtain as red pigments are very common in nature
VII The Magician ive heard of purple, super expensive and difficult. why it was used for royalty and not in flags. saw it in most disgusting jobs in history, love those documentaries
It is so "RED" ima in love.. we learnt in school a lot like how to make drawing coal, how to gild leather, how to male own wool paper, even how to make paint that was used in cave drawings.. and ton of artistic stuff but we never learnt how to make watercolors :/
@@strawberry8099 how long is the long run? That's always an important question. Economically, accounting for inflation most things don't actually work out better
@@Jayariee buying paint over time and spending more on pigments which will be more expensive but give you more bang for your buck and you can choose your colors and adjust to your liking, I just personally think it's better and save you a little bit more money but it's really a preference :p
That shade of red is hard to find in anything - lipstick, fabric, proper paints.... It's a fascinating, nearly neon red. Not quite Fire Engine, but not a true red either. It's truly an interesting color. I am curious if you ever try mica powders in your paints, whether as a main ingredient or a minor additive for sparkle. Do you do primarily solid, plain color pans? Or do you get adventurous with the shimmer, glitter, and metallic?
Arleesha, I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I've finally just got the courage to comment. Thank you so much for making these videos. They're absolutely gorgeous and super relaxing. I love that whenever I'm feeling super stressed, I can turn on one of your videos and instantly feel better. I love your channel!
It might be easier to mix the pigment and binder in a bowl, then pour it onto the glass to mull. Just an idea since you said the pigment did not mix easily. 💚
I've seen soap makers blend first with a spatula, then a stick blender, and then add their pigment in with a spatula and it might be a different medium, but the idea seems to work out
treefrog ochs I don't think so... Maybe the color would be more flowy but that's not a disadvantage. But if you don't Mull enough I think the color would be granular
@@kevinmoreira4583 Mulling makes sure all of the pigment is dispersed into the binder. If it isn't mulled enough, the unbound pigment can rub off the paper. Granulation, as far as I'm aware, isn't related to mulling.
Over mulling is actually a thing. If you mull to the point where the fluid/wetness is too minimal and then keep going you can actually grind the pigment down further and make it duller. A lot of natural pigments have a sweet spot on pigment granule size. Too small and they are dull and lifeless, too large and they don't make good paint. It would be a LOT of work to do this... most grinding actually occurs in a mortar and pestle. I have purchased a few pigments and hand to grind them more because they weren't perfectly ground for watercolour.
I know these videos are probably very hard to make, i’m so grateful for these videos. they are so incredibly calming. thank you for putting in the effort to show us this.
Just found this video. So soothing, so informative, so inspiring. Thank you! I will now make my own paints once my studio is set up. Again, thank you. Had no idea paint making could be so therapeutic. ♡♡♡
Oh my god! I love that red so much! Most of my watercolor sets don't have the red color that i really like. But your is so beautiful, this is the red that I'm looking for! I can't wait until you put these paints on store!
This seems really cool :D I've only sketched and done some digital dabbling here and there, and this really made me want to explore this paint-making experience a lot more :) thank you
Love the color! It might be easier to mull the color if you first mix the pigment with water and alcohol to a quark like consistency with the pallet knife, then you can add the binder and mull. This will also improve the dispersion in the overall paint (you’ll have more color when you dilute it with water). Really like that you make videos about paint making!
It makes me sorta happy to see that this video did so well despite you being a smaller creator. I think that the way you carry yourself as an educator on the platform is something that I hope you get a lot of credit and support for!
I've seen some videos on how to make paint, but this is where I find what the muller is. Thanks for explaining on how it's use to even out the pigment.
Can you pls make more videos/montages of you just making your own colors?? I find it super relaxing, almost ASMR like, plus it’s super satisfying seeing the end result. Such a beautiful color btw, takes a lot of work but worth it :)
I remember watching this video 2 years ago and was wondering where I first watched a watercolor made, only now did I manage to find it again 🥺🥺 this is absolutely calming and amazing
I know there's these kilns/ovens for resin that people use, the majority of resins dries faster and therefore has better results when you apply heat to then, maybe you should check out if these same kilns can work to speed to drying process of your watercolors if you really wanna making paint making into a investment. And i also understand why there such few reds in watercolor brands that scratch my itch, if it's this hard by hand it must not that much easier even with the machines.
Now THAT is serious dedication and love. SO beautiful and satisfying (not to you, I’m sure!). This is ridiculously cool, and I can’t even begin to fathom the amount of effort and heart that goes into making your paints. So glad this showed up in my recommended! ❤️
So interesting how it seems to become more opaque as the pigment disperses. As far as I understand, the pigment is also going through a process of hydrating as well.
Man, I'm not a native English speaker, and I don't really know it well, but I only realized halfway on the video that I didn't have the subtitles on, and it was amazing. The way she pronounces the words makes it easier for me to understand what she's saying without having to read the subtitles. And oh, sis, you have a new subscriber.
i don't even paint & have no idea about what ur talking about but this was so relaxing & satisfying. i now truly appreciate the hard work that goes into this art
Your videos really help me sleep, your voice is so calming, and the visuals are amazing! I have been struggling to sleep because of school, and the stress that it brings..but I found your channel and I can say that by the end of any of your videos, I can fall asleep. Please don't get me wrong, as in the idea of your videos are boring, since they are not! not at all! But they are just really calming, and your voice is amazing and makes the video so so much more relaxing and calming.
Dats a lot of paint in that jar at the end. Have you ever considered getting empty metal tubes and filling those with your paint? I personally like being able to pour my own pans or working with fresh paint.
This has been a popular question, and it’s mostly because I don’t want to have another surface/container to clean up. The slab works, it just takes a little time.
1:12 binder that sounds like a lot of binders. I thought that the increased binder requirement is due to the fact that transparent organic pigments are much lighter and that's why I went by volume and used as much as with the other pigments. For example, a tablespoon only has one gram and for another earth pigment it is 12 grams, both of them need about the same number of tablespoons of binder or the transparent pigment a few tablespoons more.
PR254 is also my favourite one. Sennelier 's is the one I use but the name is Sennelier Red. Their Rose Dore Madder Lake is PR255 which is a bit warmer but beautiful too! Interesting to see just how much time and effort it takes to make paint! Your paint looks lovely!
Just remember to always check the toxicity of the paint! Some paints have poisonous materials that professionals should only be using! Stay safe everyone ^^
Somewhere between Bob Ross and some of the asmr stuff I love to fall asleep too... if you ever considered doing that stuff I'd definitely listen to an hour of you talking paint whilst mixing... mulling (is that what the glass grinding is?) And this chilled music :)
I love your videos so much! They are such a high quality and educational let alone they are so relaxing! Don't stop because not many active art UA-camrs have this great video quality and content 💙💙 I enjoy your videos so much I think I am going to try some of your classes (which would be the first actual classes I have ever done).
My favorite red too! It’s compliment is PB16 Phaloblue turquoise under DS or just phaloturquoise under DaVinci and beautifully transparent, and makes an awesome neutral.
Is there a reason you don’t do it in a bowl?
That's a great question, and there are a few reasons. Primarily, I don't want to have more tools that will need to be cleaned when I'm done.

@@arleebean Do you use a regular glas-slap or is it a special one?
I thought it was just because she needed more room 💀
Mia Schoenfeld she uses a regular glass slab, but sands it down so the pigment can be pushed out more
@@emptyricebowl O,O huh... I never thought to try out that way :D sounds better than paying for a roughed up glass plate that costs way more than I am confortable with. Thank you :)

PR254 is also my favourite one. Sennelier 's is the one I use but the name is Sennelier Red. Their Rose Dore Madder Lake is PR255 which is a bit warmer but beautiful too! Interesting to see just how much time and effort it takes to make paint! Your paint looks lovely!
Ah, you're right! Thanks. :] ♥♥
Just remember to always check the toxicity of the paint! Some paints have poisonous materials that professionals should only be using! Stay safe everyone ^^
Reminds me of when I was a teen & would make water color paint with different colored shale rocks. Cool channel to stumble upon!
This is like ASMR for your eyeballs! I could watch this all day!
Somewhere between Bob Ross and some of the asmr stuff I love to fall asleep too... if you ever considered doing that stuff I'd definitely listen to an hour of you talking paint whilst mixing... mulling (is that what the glass grinding is?) And this chilled music :)
Thanks for showing the mulling process! It is good to know how the process goes and I found that you are the only resource that does that!
Me: wow I really want to try make it!
My lazyness: ArE YOu SuRE aBoUt ThAT?
I love your videos so much! They are such a high quality and educational let alone they are so relaxing! Don't stop because not many active art UA-camrs have this great video quality and content 💙💙
I enjoy your videos so much I think I am going to try some of your classes (which would be the first actual classes I have ever done).
Why do I feel like her voice could make me fall asleep thinking that’s this could be an ASMR?......
awww the heart was so cute!!! watching paint making videos is my new obsession!
❤️ for red paint
My favorite red too! It’s compliment is PB16 Phaloblue turquoise under DS or just phaloturquoise under DaVinci and beautifully transparent, and makes an awesome neutral.
Love your videos
yes it cool to make ur own colors because some are so expensive for no good reason while u can find it as powder more cheaper so thank u so much
