Such a great swatching video! This is my second time watching it. This video is permanently saved in a watercolor wishlist folder; where I can refer back too when choosing Holbein colors I want to try. Thank you for making this! Much love
🥺glad you found it useful! It’s just too long though. 😅
Very useful video. Having the dried color at the same time as the live swatch is SUPER helpful.
Glad that it’s helpful for you!
what an amazing endeavour! Thank you for your amazing service😂🎉
I love Holbein and when I am not sure if to buy or not a colour I can watch this video to better understand how good that color is. Thanks. A lot❤
You are welcome!
Hi Alice, a huge thank you for making this Holbein watercolor full catalogue swatching video. Over the course of the past year, I have referred to this thorough and high quality vid at least 30 times (not even joking). It's helped me decide on what new colors to purchase and compare against other brands. Invaluable tool for watercolor painters. Very grateful for this, thank you. Have a nice day!
You are welcome! 🙂
My dot card arrived yesterday and I am so excited for this weekend when I can play around with them and decide on the colors I want to start off with. Thank you for this video and letting us know that this dot card exists!
Thank you for sharing this kind of video. It’s really useful to choose watercolor paint 😊🙏
Holbein is my favorite paint to use! I love how it re-wets, it’s so creamy! And I absolutely love the color choices. Thank you for making this video, I come back to it over and over again when I feel like adding new colors to my Holbein palette!
No problem! Glad that it’s helpful for you. 😁
The giveaway is closed. Congratulations to @Lilith Art and @Laura King for winning the holbein dotcard. I will contact you separately.
Thank you for making this giveaway 💕✨
🤗
Very helpful, thank you so much! Excellent info!
Enjoyed this video… and your expertise!
Thank you!
Can't wait!
Thank you so much for useful video🤍🤍🤍🤩🤩🤩
woah, awesome vid! how did i miss this?! i'm going to be referring to this vid a lot in the future, thanks Alice! great close ups :D
Hey you are welcome!
mmm...okay?! So funny that you say this so often.
Thanks for taking us with you swatching. Very helpful
Oh no did I? 🙀
@@eurekawanders Yes. I think you do not notice it anymore. 😅
Thank you, that was a lot of work! Also on the part of the person who made the dot card :-)
Yes it was! You are welcome!
I love my 108 tube set of Holbein. Found them on eBay for a steal.
Lucky you!! I think they retail at a higher price outside of Japan.
I am in US and they were shipped from Japan. I remember paying under $500. So check out EBay.
Aliexpress and Allegro Japan are very reasonable
aww shame i missed the competition for the dot card ! please do this again. :-)
Awww but I don’t have anymore. 😢
Oh, I like the burnt umber! And that Indian red! That raw umber & raw sienna seem a bit odd, though.
I have the Indian red and it’s quite opaque but very smooth texture and a dream to paint with.
I would love to see you demonstrate the above paints and how they perform wet on wet. :-)
Are there particular colours you are looking at?
@@eurekawanders sorry...Im mainly interested in the pastels.
That was wonderful. Im thinking of buying some Holbein but am worried as the colours that I love are semi opaque/semi transparent (dont know the difference). However, I have read several times that using opaque/semi will just block out any previous transparent layers already painted. I only paint flowers. Could you please give me some advice as I dont understand everything about water colours. thank you in advance.
You are right. Opaque colours will cover transparent ones. You can use transparent above opaque ones.
Hi Alice! I really like your watercolor swatches! I just wanna ask if Holbein watercolors are considered non-toxic since I really love their non-granulating formula and colors ❤️
Hey thanks! they do have paints containing cadmium and cobalt pigments which are considered harmful. You have to read the labels carefully. You can find more in the SDS:

@@eurekawanders Thank you! ^^
Your swatching is excellent but i think i will go for daniel smith rather than holbein
They are very different paints. Daniel smith has very wild colours while holbein make very consistent paint.
@@eurekawanders what do you mean by wild? Can you please clarify
I’d love to know the comparison between Mars Violet and Daniel Smith’s Perylene violet. Which is redder, which is browner or are they quite similar?
Hello there. Do you consider that indigo to be cool or warm?
Great question! I surveyed our Discord community, and most of us find it cooler than warm.
@@eurekawanders thank u so much for taking the time to answer me. Really appreciate it! 🥰
I have 15 mL tubes of leaf green and phthalo blue red shade and they are amazing!!! It's a good brand. Hey I have a dumb question. Do I dm you my email or only if i win? I want the dotcard.
Lol! That’s fast. DM me your email to enter.
@@eurekawanders ok done!
I want the dotcard. (And thank you so much for this great demo!)
@@lauraking1331 I got your dm!
@lilith art , you have won a dotcard! I will contact you on IG for your mailing address. :)
