    I usually paint old photos of mine, instant nostalgia so just bingeing on your videos. BUT I really want to have a go at this. Some interesting pigments/paints in this. It made me think of Harry Potter with Indigo Dementors swirling about. Thanks.

    Wow, this was very educational. I didn't think you could put light colors on top of dark in watercolor, but you just proved that wrong! Thank you so much Angela.

    I have been so afraid of using darker colors, even for contrast. So this video was great for me. Now I need to start playing again. TFS

    I am often asking my grandchildren "what colours do you see in that ploughed field" and we then start to move away from just 'brown'. Looking more closely there are so many more colours if we take time to really look. My grandchildren love doing this, and it makes me happy. Really enjoyed your video, thank you

    I did a space/nebula scene lately, and the dispersion of the Nickel Azo Yellow and the Cobalt Teal was really fun to play with! I think the Quin Purple dispersed well too, but since it was so dark it didn't have the same dramatic effect.

    I am intrigued after watching your youtube video of a watercolor on black ground. I have painted in acrylics on dark background and really like the play of colors against the dark background. Lately I have been using brusho crystal watercolors. I'd like to try them on the black ground as they burst with bits of contrasting colors. I wonder about using Brusho watercolors with opaque white. Would it be labeled a mixed media piece? Do you call your paintings on black ground watercolors?
