  • I hope this video doesn't send new watercolorists running away from the media in horror. also, I realized that I forgot 2 of my palettes because they were loaned out. A Koi 24 watercolor set and my supervision layered watercolors. Here are videos of those palettes if you are interested:
    Supervision: • 15 NEW Granulating Wat...
    Koi: • Plein Air Postcard #4:...
    Other than that I think I have them all. It's a lot. I might need an intervention.
    You can find many of my recommendations on my Amazon recommendations page: amzn.to/415iCCm
    And the higher-end products on Blick: shrsl.com/3xnu8
    Some things have been discontinued and I hope that is not frustrating. Also as we saw with some of the "fan/folding" palettes the quality and formulation changes so with many of the discount brands it's hard to know if they are still the same quality as the older sets I have.
    I noticed that I did most of my purchasing prior to my big konmari clean out in 2017. I know I have a lot and will get some judgment from it but I hope you enjoy the video in the honest sharing nature it was presented. Be well and happy crafting!

      I just don’t understand why anyone feels the need to be critical. They could find something good if they wanted to.

    I can only imagine that those who are online as art creators get a lot of supplies of all kinds. It’s your occupation! I appreciate that you share them and talk about pros and cons depending on how we want to use them! This was a fun video. I find it inspiring and fun to see what’s out there!

    NO SHAME OR JUDGMENT. Regardless of if you're an art teacher, professional painter, "hobbyist," or "just collector".
    If it makes you happy, then that's what counts. It is that simple.

    Those are shelves of pure joy! I stopped worrying about what others think about what I wear, buy, decorate my home, etc because their thoughts won't change how I feel about whatever the situation may be. I'm in control of my joy and will not allow someone else to dump on it with their negativity. Life is for living to the fullest! Thanks for sharing some of your joy!

    For a while I was ‘collecting’ watercolour palettes. I was curious about different brands and would buy paint to test. I had to stop when I ran out of space. But I don’t think it’s that unusual to have a lot of paint. I use them all. And it means I have palettes for when people ask to paint with me.

    I don't know why, in this day and age, someone is always out there to make us feel bad about the harmless things that make us happy. I say that your palette collection is glorious and there's never a need to defend it. Heck, I think it makes a lot of us happy just to listen to you talk about/show us what makes you happy, and that's how things should work. Everyone's enthusiasm should be appreciated and contagious.
    This was a great video. So much fun to watch! I didn't mind the length at all. It's endlessly interesting to see all of the different kinds of ways people can store/use their paint. Have you given any consideration to branching out to vintage/antique palettes? I recently purchased a replica of an ancient Egyptian palette that I'm enjoying greatly, and always look in thrift/antique stores (if not eBay) for old ones should they ever pop up.

    My favorite way to spend a wintery, blustery Arizona day is with Lindsay. Blizzard conditions on the mountain, sleet/snow mix down here in the valley with gale force winds. They are advising us to stay off the roads if possible. So yeah, stay inside and watch Lindsay. Sounds like a plan.

    2.5 days later, I got through this video!!! Lol, and I loved it! Trying to figure out how I'm going to justify cost to the wife!!! Watercolor is like buying gold!!! Even empty tins can be pricey! Now I understand the wife's plea to pick only two hobbies. I'm looking at having to drop skating, to become a full-time artist. I already dropped music, so I no longer have instrument up keep costs. The things we allow ourselves to justify cost... I still have photography and skating cost. However, photography can rollover into my painting... Skating... It's very freeing, since I no longer travel. I was just looking at a group of friends that host skate traveling meet ups... If they'd only asked me 20 years ago... Then, I'd probably never had met my wife, or purchased my homes. Cause I'd be so in debt racking up cost on traveling.

    I love my one Schmincke Horadam pallet. But I am a person who keeps it on a shelf and takes it out only occasionally; to paint swatches. I do not judge you at all! We have a right to fully enjoy our paints uniquely! If we have many or few. I love that you openly share yours, you are very brave.

    Watching reviews like yours helped me buy only the supplies I would really like. Don't feel bad about having so many paints, you're helping people make good decisions. I tend to do a lot of research and go big straight out of the gate. I bought a 10-yard roll of 100% cotton hotpressed watercolor paper as my first watercolor paper. Some might say that's crazy, but it has worked out fantastically. I have the perfect paper for me, and I saved so much money.

  • @jackigarcia2819

  • @margueritegouin2621
    @margueritegouin2621 Рік тому +2

    You are right. A collection of watercolor palettes is not so different from a collection of wooden ducks or fancy mugs. But as you say, we use those palettes and it's pure joy. I rotate through them so I don't neglect any of them. I have 22 palettes, some small and some very large.

    @LydiaCuff Рік тому +8

    Yay! I was looking for a video like this on your channel just yesterday. I started with a kind of shiny/gummy kiddie craft paint in 2021, then bought the interesting Miya rhombus pallette after Christmas when it was on sale super cheap, but I ended up having a family tragedy that kept me from getting back to my dorm for two months, so I picked up the Pretty Excellent pallette and ended up passing the Miya pallette on to my niece without opening it. Then I got the GenCrafts 48 because I liked the pallette and the way the pans click into 6-color frames that can also be rearranged. The paint isn’t as nice as the PE in my opinion, but the pallette itself is great. The little 6-pan frames are great to take out and put in a mint tin for travel, but the 48-pallette is kind of huge and heavy. So then I got their 24 set of metallic/pearlescent colors so that I could switch things out and work with a smaller set of colors. I figure as I run out of colors I’ll replace them with artist-grade stuff from tubes. Otherwise, I have my eye on some of those Paul Reuben’s artist grade pallettes and some of the Japanese-style watercolors. Anyway, thanks for the video. That Portable Painter pallette absolutely went on my wishlist 😅

    • @nachobidness2553
      @nachobidness2553 Рік тому

      I can relate to you palette adventure. I just bought a Paul Rubens set just for the palette. I'll give most of the paints away (it's one of the worst student grade sets) and replace them with my pre-poured pans.
      I regret giving away some palettes a few years ago, bu t now I have an excuse to get more.

You dont have a problem, youre an artist, a teacher, have a business, so its natural you'd have a lot of supplies.

    I had put this on while working in my craft room. My plans were to just have it as pleasant background noise, but kept stopping what I was doing to watch. Who knew a tour of your palettes would be so interesting? Loved all 2 hours and 40 min!

    It isn't just about accumulating. When I look at my pallet collection I am inspired by all of the potential to create. I love letting my friends and family explore their own creativity with them. When I look at my stash I don't see excess, I see the promise of art and all of its possibilities.
    Enjoy your collection!

    I totally understand your attachment and enjoyment of the Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Field Pocket Set- it has everything you need in such a small set, perfectly fits my hand and is just so cute! And I wouldn’t worry about your love of watercolor Palettes, or art supplies of any kind because you are not the only one with that love, let me tell you. I have watched this video more times than I can count. Keep on enjoying and having fun.

    My husband is 80 and still had a set of pan paints from his school days - so about 70 years old and completely dried up. (They are Page London). I recently started spraying them with water to loosen them up and in fact they are now usable. I'm amazed! Glad they didn't get thrown away. (Love your videos.)

    I took your free Michael’s watercolor technique class today, I was a little late but made it. Absolutely loved the class and learned so much. This was my first time working with watercolor but have always wanted to do this. I am 66 and just recently had to leave my job due to illness. I am going to use these wonderful watercolor techniques you taught. I will have to go to work soon but until I find another job, I will be trying watercolor. Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful talent with us. Your class was very informative and you are an excellent teacher

I have been looking for a new set to get for a vacation and now have good information on which are the best. By the way, i love your long videos. I watch them instead of tv in the evening. I learn something new each time. Thank you so much.

Your the sweetest paint nerd we all look up too. 1st channel I check for info is yours. Your vast knowledge is needed. It saves us so much. Helps all save time and money while learning . Your teaching I love you for that. Take a bow you deserve that.

    Thank you so much for doing this video Lindsey! I’ve only been painting for a year and a half and already have three brands (Paul Rubens, Kuretake Gansi Tambi, Daniel Smith) and have several self curated pallets, so who knows how extensive my collection will become with more time. I also have collections of colored pencils, coloring books, fabric, jigsaw puzzles and books, all of which came in very handy during the pandemic when we were all desperate for entertainment without going out! I’m also impressed with how much information you gave us about all your pallets, especially how the paints perform , with price and pigment information!

    I missed bits of this palette review here and there due to life, but appreciated the information I was able to glean from it. I'll probably go back again at some point and rewatch to see what I missed. I did want to say however that you should never feel guilty for your collection. You use your paints. You do reviews, you advise others based on your experience with different paints etc. Geez I mean you are an artist. You seem to be a very frugal person in other aspects of your life, so don't beat yourself up and don't let others do so either. If you get hateful comments, screw them, some people are just miserable people. Enjoy all you want for as long as you enjoy them or think you'll find a use for them and never get rid of them until you want to. Don't let mean spirited people rob you of your job. Thanks for sharing!

    I love seeing watercolor palettes! I’m with you and collect art supplies of all values; very very expensive to very very inexpensive and everything in between!’
    I don’t buy alot of clothes, purses or jewelry like my friends. I’m glad they enjoy the things they buy…
    One friend bought a purse when they went to Italy that was handmade and VERY expensive. She has other expensive purses along with her cheaper ones. She enjoys them immensely and very proud of her nicer ones.
    Now, that personally doesn’t interest me but I’m happy for her and she is for my supplies even though she doesn’t paint or do paper crafts.
    It’s just much nicer to share your joy instead of just “bitching “ and spreading negativity.
    So you “go girl “ and don’t let anyone rain on your excitement!!
    I’m nearly 65 and I just pray for those who are so miserable and I don’t let them have any influence on my attitude.
    Thank you for sharing!!!
    You got me excited!!! We’ve moved and remodeling so much of my things are boxed up.
    Blessings,
    Nancy Rolfe

    I guess people who are critical might have makeup reviewers in mind, since they often have far too much makeup to use up within the boundaries of the products' expiration dates. Some reviewers just buy makeup, review them, and never use them again and leave their stuff to rot until they eventually expire.
    Unlike them, you use all your paints regularly, and it's very clear that you pay a lot of care and attention to your collection. I've watched your videos for quite some time and it's always nice to see a different palette in every tutorial. Your paints are well-loved, and I'm very grateful for the time you've spent to review all of them for us.
