- Today I bought and tried the most expensive art supply on Etsy! This watercolor set is over $600 and I wanted to try it to see if it was worth it. I've tried many cheap and expensive art supplies over the years and I love to rate different etsy products
Here is the art supply: www.etsy.com/listing/10900205...

It‘s actually normal for watercolour to be individually wrapped. The numbers are always on the side of the „thingy“ so you know which colour to buy when it is empty. Love, that you tried them. I love to paint with them although I cannot paint 😂
If you can put paint on paper, you can paint! I mean seriously, there’s a painting of a red square that sold for millions I believe. Your joy scribbles and paint splatters are certainly better art and they bring you joy! That’s the point of art ❤❤❤
Who said you had to be "good" at art to make art anyways. Keep at it.
@@shelbyheaser8804This!!
Exactly!! Being individually wrapped tends to keep them safer and easier to organize.
Individually wrapping them also keeps them "clean" during shipping. No contamination of French ultramarine blue into your lemon yellow or stuff like that. Also, some colors dry out quicker and are prone to falling out of the pan.
$2 per half pan is not a bad price. I appreciate you supporting small business!.
It sure is!
i think the set in the video is quarterpans and not half pans? it says "mini pans" for the "cheaper" one and "half pan" for the one with 1,300 retail price
I believe the set she got with the tiny squares are .5ml sample pans , not a half pan which is 2ml, they're called 1/8th pans
$2 thats so cheap! I paid like 7 euro's for a half pan last month ☺️ (ran out of pink haha)
Agree, surprising it was not more expensive.
For the glittery ones you want to add water and leave them at least a minute (longer is better) to get activated. That way you can get a really good solid glitter layer. I love that about my handmade Claire Chi Studio watercolours. My precious shinies! 🤩🤩🤩
Try to spray the pallet with a spray bottle first to moisten them then wait about 5 minutes THEN use them.
I learned that you actually need to activate them before you use them so try to do that then use them. It will improve the quality and how rich the colour is if you do this.
Not with these particular watercolours, I have purchased them myself. I spent over $165 on individual half pants, and I did everything I could and couldn’t activate 3/4 of the colours I ordered no matter what I did, and I am very familiar with water colours. I use them all the time including handmade. These were very poorly made when they dry if you can get any colour they come off like chalk on your finger. I didn’t give her a bad review though because she seems to have just started out. and is a small business and I don’t want to do any damage.
@@jessbutterfly9801that's how they look to me as well 😬 just extremely chalky and not very nice. And why white/ super light paints?? It's watercolour! You don't need light paints, you can just dilute the dark ones. I'm just confused as to who the targeted person is. Because a beginner would certainly be okay with chalky paint but would probably not buy expensive hand made paints, while experienced persons are fine with spending more money on their supplies, they spend it on high quality products and not chalk. I do love that people make such things themselves, I'm just a little confused 😅
So many of the colors look like they’re just different values of the same hue. Also, they look so chalky I believe that’ll make it hard to rewet and probably not very transparent. Lastly, most or all of these trendy expensive handmade watercolors have no information whatsoever on pigments and lightfastness. Honestly, at the sale price of this set one could buy probably around 10-15 tubes of the very best professional watercolors in the market, that comes with probably four times, if not more, the amount of paint. I sell my original paintings, I can’t risk using a material with no lightfastness ratings, but I guess if I were a hobby watercolor paint with deep pockets, this might be nice to play with since with all these colors you don’t need to have any knowledge of color mixing. At the full price of those, I could maybe buy 30 tubes of Schimincke Super Granulation paints. That’s almost all of them (40). Now that I wouldn’t have a problem spending 😊
Yes great tip! I learned that from Rebel Unicorn Crafts channel n it's crazy the difference between using any watercolor pans dry vs letting them activate with water first a few minutes. SO much more pigmented!
It’s not the case. I never activate my handmade watercolors. I find good results with L’oeil watercolors. I just dip some water and the colors come off very easily. I think it depends on how much pigment they use and the binder. If the binder is bad, no matter how well you mull, the colors will not come off.
as a watercolor artist these colors/packaging are absolutely beautiful but i cant see myself buying and using them. I never really understood why people need so many shades for watercolors when you can layer different colors and get really cool effects! I would definitely buy a smaller pack from this seller if they ever release one
Lol same, I was recently using a 24pc gansai tambi box, and the whole time I was constantly elbowing around because the palette was TOO BIG on my desk! 😆 And then I only use 3 or 4 colours anyway
I'm too lazy to mix colors so I like having every color possible 😂
For me personally, I’m not actually that into painting, but it’s the same satisfaction I get from having the biggest crayon box XD
Ich bin sehr anfällig für schöne Gegenstände und möchte sie dann haben. Gott sei Dank, diesen Kasten muss ich nicht haben, nicht einmal für weniger Geld. Mich erschlägt diese Masse und animiert mich nicht im geringsten. Trotzdem Danke für die Präsentation.
I agree. Recently got into watercolor and initially purchasing too many colors set me back in learning to mix my own colors. I've got a more limited palette now and I think it's helped force me to learn the basics and my paintings look more cohesive overall.
I saw the yellow of the house and knew it was Lilo and Nani's house. For someone who doesn't use watercolors often the picture turned out beautifully. As for the set, not the most accessible price upfront, but it looks like it would be a good investment overall.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS IT!!
Me too. That is one of my favorite Disney movies.
The big problems with this set can be found in the sentence "I used only three main pigments (red yellow blue) and black white pigments."
1. Watercolor artists generally look for single-pigment paints; they can mix them together themselves. Technically, this whole set is no more useful than buying 5 single-pigment paints and mixing them yourself when you need a color (if we ignore the sparkly/special-effect colors).
2. It looks like a lot of the paints contain white so that they'll be pastel. White should generally not be added to a watercolor paint, because you can make any color lighter by just diluting it more.
3. "red yellow blue" aren't pigments. Pigments are things like PB28 (Cobalt Blue) or PV23 (Winsor Violet).
4. There is no lightfastness information. If the "red" pigment here is PR83 (Alizarin Crimson), for example, none of the paints containing red (so, at least half the paints) will be lightfast, which means they'll fade after exposure to light.
If I wanted to spend $300-600 on watercolors, I'd buy artist-grade paints made with only one known pigment, not a mixture of three unknown pigments.
I was planning on writing that myself, but you put it in words really well, I would also mention that handmade watercolor can smudge off like an eyeshadow if it's particulary chalky (I encountered that with a cadmium paint, which is poisonous in a dust form🙃) and also the fact that if you try mixing these shades you won't get clean colors, for example: instead of blue and yellow giving green you'll probably get somethig that looks like swamp water.
Also, an important thing that I forgot to mention is that the primary colors (basic colors for mixing) are not red, blue and yellow, they can't give you the full color spectrum! The actual primary colors are singlepigmented cyan, magenta and yellow, colors obtained from these are much more clean and vibrant.
So then in those sets what would be the one pigment used? I’m genuinely curious because color theory is wild.
@@zoebrooke5650 I think they meant that a single watercolor should use a single, specific pigment, rather than three pigments alone making up a whole set-
@@zoebrooke5650 While you can mix two pigments to make another (so red and yellow to make orange,, etcc.) You wouldn't want to buy a paint made like that. Instead you want one made with a specific orange, green, purple, etc... pigment. You get much more range that way since you then have more pigments to work with to get the colors you want.
A specific green pigment WILL look so much different from a green made by mixing a yellow and blue pigment. Depending on what you want and painting style this is very annoying because no matter what you do you'll never get that same green without the right pigment. The difference can be drastic or very subtle but either way it annoys me to not have that right pigment
There are some exceptions where you might buy a paint made up of multiple pigments for the convenience if that mix is something you'll use a lot of. When I buy acrylics I always check the pigments listed on the paint. If it is made up of colors I already have then I just take a photo of the pigment list + paint color and make it myself.
Rarely, the mixed pigment color will include a pigment I don't have and that isn't available to buy at the store. For those I just buy the mixed stuff because if I order paint online I always end up buying more paint than I planed to get since there are so many options you can't find in physical stores
I love seeing creators testing out products from small businesses.
I know of a half pan watercolour set on Etsy that is currently over $1300. Individually wrapped watercolour pans is normal both in handmade and large scale brands. As a watercolour artist the lack of pigment information on a set that cost that much would bug me a lot.
Garentee you that they aren't lightfast
Okay, "artist" 🤣🤣
@@BelindasArtStudioyeah, if I make paints myself I would make shure to test them! Especially if I want to sell these expensive paints I better know everything about them and be able to also tell that to people. Also you could advertise your paints with the information, especially if they are made very well??? So no information just reaks cheapness to me :(
@@drhannibelledon’t really get the snarky comment. For watercolour artists pigment information and light fastness of the watercolours are really important. While this set looks pretty, and handmade and it is made by a small business spending so much money on a product to discover it is only good for sketchbook work is an overkill on both the amount of colours and the price tag. I get it individually they aren’t expensive but as a whole it is very expensive.
@@finnthewestiefinnmccool5916 she's not an artist lol
Chloe!! Watercolor obsessed artist here! It's normal to have to spray (or drop water on) handmade watercolors several minutes before you use them and let it sit to get the true color payoff! Definitely try that with some of those fancy hard to work with shades!
As someone who has a number of handmade watercolors from different people I've paid $5-11 per pan. So I think this is probably a really good deal if the quality is good!
'MCMarts' - is one of my favorite Etsy shops with handmade watercolors! Cristina is awesome and great at answering the questions I've had.
Do you have a creator you'd recommend for someone w h o wants to learn how to use watercolor,and use it well?for some reason my brain has never wrapped itself around the concept on its own
@@GlamGoreChaosQueen i think kelly eddington watercolours is really good
Is it the Lilo & Stitch home? 🎉 49 y/o artist here! Stitch is my fave🤩✌️💙
I appreciate the quality and value of these paints. And you did a great job with them. They look pretty rich once dry. Although, once you use pro-art paints of any type, nothing seems as juicy! 🤤
That's immediately what I thought too
Same here haha. I dont even know how i recognized it. Buried memory 😂
I can't say for sure but I lived in Hawaii for a while and I'm also getting that vibe
Lol me too.
Absolutely gotta be! I thought I'd see more comments about it😅 Guess not.
The artwork turned out amazing!!! I yhibk you nailed the Lilo and Stitch vibe perfectly. ❤
Very normal for watercolours to be wrapped this way to protect them for shipping. One thing with handmade paints specifically is that you want to spray them with water or add some water and let it sit before using the pigment, that will help with the payout of colour. Certain pigments will need this regardless but handmade paints in general need a bit more coaxing that way :)
I would guess maybe half the colours are lightfast, these do look professional quality. This is not a bad price at ALL for handmade paints.
Okay, weirdly, I think I would find the unwrapping and placing kind of fun too. I have always loved sorting things by color :D
It seems similar to putting together a puzzle, in a way.
To be fair, the price for handmade watercolours is very expensive, I make my own watercolours by hand and they're expensive to make, the price she charges is very cheap, thank you for supporting small watercolor businesses
Watching PearFleur mull her own paint, from pigments she gets from Choosing Keeping, I believe- you better believe hand-crafting paints is a time-consuming process... but it is *SO* watchable- it's mesmerising.
Even though I really like water-colour painting, I would have a hard time justifying the cost of this set, though- even breaking down the individual price (it'd be like $7-800-odd Australian!) - still, I enjoyed watching you test it.
For the amount of effort and time put into that set, the price is actually so good. The box is stunning. I'm shook and haven't even seen them unwrapped yet
The art supply dragon in me really wants that for hoarding purposes.
Hah! That is a perfect description. I know I don't really neeeeeed all the art supplies but (figuratively) sitting on your hoard is so satisfying!
Same. Saaame. 🤦🏽♀️
I love these so much, I just love listening to you talking about everything and the drawing was just BEAUTIFUL
Lilo and Stitch! I absolutely agree the backgrounds are absolutely gorgeous. They're even watercolour in the animated series too!
I mean technically it's actually a GREAT deal for handmade watercolours but I can't justify using SO MANY?! I actually got a 24 colour set as my first decent set and I barely use only half the shades omg haha. People are right, you don't really need a lot of shades with paint, just well chosen ones. Of course, you can have your extras that are special use such as certain granulating and shimmer fun colours but for main work one doesn't need a lot at all.
I have a 12 colour set and i only use half regularly lol
I love when the art supplies themselves are art ❤
Speaking of art, the piece you made with the watercolor is so lovely! When you said it's a scene from a movie that had backgrounds that were entirely watercolor I guessed it might a scene from Lilo and Stitch! I love that movie so much, that my family and I all have Ohana tattoos.
I have had this exact kit in my cart for months! So excited to see it!
You are so amazing!
You inspired me to start to do art and now its one of my biggest passions! Keep up the great work!
Beautiful set!! By wrapping the pans individually there is less chance of breakage or mess.
I have been facing my nemesis of watercolors this year -- I tend to paint like they are acrylics too lol! I found that I love layering watercolor pencils over the paint for depth.
Not only are those watercolours absolutely gorgeous, but I LOVE that you painted the house from my favourite movie! That movie is so amazing and one of the only movies to have used fully watercolour backgrounds in every scene. ❤And the message of family only makes it even better.
That set is so beautiful. What a stunning box they come in 😍
I love your artwork too 😍. I need to practice with my water colours too
That’s the Lilo & Stitch house! It’s also my favorite, the art is so so gorgeous. I love your painting, Chloe ❤
I personally also love to outline my watercolor paintings with pen. I juat love how it makes the pieces feel "finished". It also helps me not over work my paintings which i struggle with after painting with acrylics for years. Your painting is beautiful!😊
love it especially when you added little detail with that tiny brush
6:20 The good thing about it not being absolutely jammed packed is if you want to remove ones in the center, you can just shove the nearby ones to the side and remove. I'd be afraid of contaminating the nearby colors with water. Also, $2 per color is amazing. It took me years to figure out I'm not a 2D artist. I don't care for painting with any medium versus sculpting, crafting, making a UFO out of bamboo, mylar, and LEDs, things like that. Also, Lilo's house turned out awesome. I need to go back and watch that movie again.
I love love love the painting!!! It makes my heart happy. It is so pretty and simple! I think it would be so fun if you did the upgraded version of the house from the end of the movie!!! You definitely did the house justice!!! I love it!!!
Love the paints! Water colors make beautiful paintings. Yours was well done. I love how you do things raw with no outline. Very nice!! 🌲🌳🌴
Unwrapping and swatching is🥰👩🍳💋Buuuut not 300+ 😮
That collection is aesthetically pleasing (once unwrapped)😅
The Painting came out gorgeous. Had no idea it was completely done in watercolor. Amazing. 😯
I loved your painting, and using the pen really brought it to life beautifully!
Subscribed❤
that set looks amazing! the individual wrappers seem annoying but I feel like I'd still like being able to arrange them in whatever order you like from scratch 😊 lovely painting, the finish looks very similar to gouache ❤
So FUN! I'd love to send you my entire collection of art supplies :)
YES!! This is the collaboration we need!!
Woah. This is what I want to see. And I'm trying to think of a way to say omg I AM SO ENVIOUS OF CHLOE For that offer, @KristyRice - your stuff is great and I've been drooling over your palette!
I would die to see this collaboration! @KristyRice makes some insanely high quality and wonderful products. I could go on and on but they are lovely. 🥰
Lilo and stitch's house! It turned out so cute. In terms of lightfastness, this is actually determined by the pigment that was used and the binder, you can probably just ask the seller you bought it from
I've got a bunch of this kind of watercolor sets ( locally made here in the Philippines) and yes they are like chocolates so neatly wrapped in these cute little shiny paper 😁 and yes again, they are good quality! I have them in metallic, color shift ( which totally blew my mind) and the plain and neon one. I've had them for at least 2 years now and they are still nice to use. I wish I could find one here that sells that kinda size of watercolor set, that'll be a lot of fun! 🤗
These blocks of color have no dividers to keep them from bleeding across into each other, and the wooden box will mold. This is not something I would buy even if the paints themselves are nice.
The colored wrappers she used to wrap them remind me of Now and Laters candies..It’s cute but it makes me want sweets… $2 a watercolor is perfection! Also is that Lilo’s home that you painted?
Looks great! You can also use color pencils for outling as well for a softer look.
I personally am not a watercolor painter but seeing the quality and what you can make with them makes me want to learn. btw your artwork was beautiful
great review, looking forward to all the amazing art work you'll make (in addition to the one at the end of the video)
So, a few quick answers/notes for you (or anyone reading this) from someone who uses watercolor! First, they're individually numbered for the same reason copics are - you can order a single pan of color when they run out! Makes life a lot easier if you use one color a lot more than the others! Other people have already said this, but putting water on the colors you're going to use with an eye dropper (or a spray bottle if you're using all of them) will help activate them so that when you go in with a wet brush you get more pigment. And, lastly, let the glitter/metallic ones soak a little longer, and use them on a colored paper (grey, tan, or preferably black). While they should look shiny on any surface, they really stand out better against darker colors! Soo excited that you got this from a small business, it's so cute and I hope you'll experiment with it more!!
I love Lilo and Stitch, I never clued in that it was watercolour! I love your painting !
the colors look very chalky, definitely something I wouldn't want in my watercolors. Can't tell from the video, but it seems that they'll crumble into pieces and will not dissolve in water. I do like the idea of glitter coat over the painting, I usually stay away from glitter and metallic watercolors, but really want to try, looks fun.
Yesterday i tried a mysterious palette i was given awhile ago by a family member and it was so powdery and not fully transparent because of it, i totally get it
Ohhhh I love when a painting comes together!!
I've never been this early. How neat! TY for your hard work on these videos
They are actually quite affordable for handmade watercolours though it is obviously a strain on the wallet. My most precious watercolours are handmade with good lightfasteness but they did cost me an arm and a leg (i.e. 345 euro/ 364 usd for a set of 48 half pans) ... Just as a hint for them (although you may have received it already), especially for sparkly/glittery watercolours, most of the times you have to activate them. This means adding a drop of water or spraying them and waiting anywhere between 1 to 5 mins before using them. You normally don't have to activate regular, non-glittery watercolours, though there may be exceptions, depending on the pigment and binder used in making them. Nevertheless, rule of the thumb is that when you feel a colour is does not seem to contain a lot of pigment, try activating it and check if it behaves differently.
What a gorgeous set of colours! And their box was as well. Breaking down the price the way you did shows that it's actually quite good value for what you get, as you rightfully said. Would this make you want to carry on with watercolours and experiment more with them? I used watercolour for my Sixth Form A-Level exam piece and you can get some really lovely tiny details with them, subtle shadows and just a great effect that you might not get with guache, oils or any other media.
Omg Lilo's house🥰 I don't have experience in watercoloring but they translate beautifully on paper and honestly the price per color is so worth it✨
Hi ChloeRoseArt I absolutely love your channel you have an amazing art talent ❤
What you made was so nice! Would love to see you use these again! 🧸
Lilo & Stitch ❤ yuknow I never really realized the whole watercolor thing until I worked out what you were painting (I automatically thought you were going for Miyazaki) that’s so cool
Ohana!! Love Lilo & Stitch (to the "got a tattoo" level). This turned out beautiful.
I wouldnt have the patience for this your realky amazing you have patience of a saint lots of love from New Jersey ❤
Girl, your painting is absolutely stunning! ❤
I’m not much of an artist, but I’m pretty thrilled with my Temu watercolors. I think I’ve spent about $25.00 total. I cannot imagine a world where I would spend that much on paint. I do love you madly and so enjoy your patter.💝
This was SO COOL! That had to take forever for the Etsy seller to individually wrap all of those paints. I loved your house painting at the end too! Your versatility between mediums always amazes me. 💜
Hi Chloe, First of all great video as always. I think however that you didn't entirely do the handmade watercolours justice. I've bought a set from the same etsy seller and even though its a smaller set , they perform amazing. Seeing as you are not a watercolour artist i thought i jump into the comment section to give you a tip. Spraying the paint with water about 3 minutes before using hem and then again when you start painting and you will find picking up the pigment will go so much easier. I hope you will enjoy this amazing set of watercolours.
I do paint quite a lot in watercolour and I have to say, for someone who doesn't use watercolours a lot, you did great job :) And also... 2 Dollars for handmade watercolours is a real bargain! Usually they're way more expensive.
WOW! First, I’m subscribing to your channel, you’re entertaining and tell it like it is. I’m not a professional watercolor artist, maybe a bit more than a beginner. I love a gallo and have quite the collection which at times overwhelms me. I can’t even imagine a set of this size. Great price per pan, lovely box. Have fun with it!
Lilo & Stitch movie!!! The animation is gorgeous. Love how your piece turned out
Unwrapping and swatching is THE BEST PART!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Hello!! I think that good paper would help too. 100 % cotton, cold pressed, 300gsm is great for watercolor. It allows the paint to spread beautifully and does not dry immediately, so you can work in it longer
Welcome to the watercolor side 😊 its my main medium and it can be so much fun at times.
Many already said, but spray bottle or a dropper to activate paints will take you far.
Also, if you can try checking out if they have the pigment info listed anywhere. Thatll help if youre tryingnto mix certain colors- artists like Dr Oto and Denise Soden here go into pigment mixes and info so thst can help, since the strength of pigment will greatly affect mixtures.
Making art supplies has been an interest of mine for awhile, so its always great seeing artists try out people's handmade products
I love the art u made!!
Drooling over these 🥰
8:54 I’m guessing it right now! It already looks like it’s Lilo’s house from the first Lilo and Stitch movie but BEFORE it blows up and gets rebuilt; did I guess correctly that fast?!
Wow! I am not into the bells and whistles - glitters, metallics etc - when it comes to Watercolours, but the 170 standard watercolours looks like such a beautiful range of colours!
I think it's an interesting Set for a certain niche audience of artists.
It is a comfort palette with the large number of colours, and they only contain a few different pigments,
It's easier to make colour-harmonious pictures with it than with several colours that are single pigment colours.
I have the habit of picking out only a few colours for a painting and mixing many different ones with them.
Depending on what is preferred, whether many colours with many different pigments or many from a few mixed with only three pigments plus white and black.
For the paints staying in place, you could just add some hot glue in the empty spaces or sticky tack.
I was thinking either line the box with magnet strips and a magnet on the back of each pan or use double sided tape both easy to remove. Cheers cherieK
You can use a little blue tac to keep the pans from shifting around and its not permanent
Oh, that looks amazing! I did this myself with my own bought pans. I took an empty carrier, measured the inside and made sure I had cardboard of that size. Then I used double sided tape (just strips) to paste the pans on. That way, you can easily remove them and you don't ruin the case. Downside: the tape sometimes lets go :P Must have been old tape.
Lilo and stitch!! ❤ love this video and art!
Hullo Chloe, Your such an amazing person and Artist! This is a wonderful collection and not knowing pigment information would be my biggest concern. I would have set it up in more color families. Because this type of palette you will have bleed-over between color pans. You will need to pre-wet the shimmer and glittery paints if you want to get the most out of them.
I would love to see you watercolor some of your Arthur the Bear pictures! Just bring them from your book and paint away!
Well I am sure you have plenty of video ideas in the Que, I just wanted to say it out loud!
I really liked that watercolour painting that you made :)
I love what you made! I can't wait to see more watercolour. 😍
Homemade watercolours are so much fun. I've made them out of all sorts of things. In order to tell whether or not something is lightfast (without a time machine. LOL) you need to know the pigments that were used. Neon colours are very fugitive, but So. Much. Fun.
Absolutely amazing!
I've bought etsy small producer watercolor paints before. Honestly i prefer knowing the pigments used, the lightfastness rating, and the consistency (meaning the paint will be the same between batches) of artist quality paints. And though it may seem like a good deal for 300+ colors, many artists keep a small handful of pigments on their palette because we know with certainty what mixing the colors will do (goes back to knowing the pigments in the paints). Don't get me wrong, playing around with paints is super fun, but its expensive to do so.
same here. it's nice to know what goes into the paint. i did buy a mini set of 3 on etsy i'm sure is a pigment blend of whatever, but i love using them to make soft skin tones, but it seems the shop i bought it from reworked the colors so now once i run out of these i'm probably not buying the new version. maybe i should ask someone who knows a ton about pigments to see if they can dupe em.
i now only really buy from the shops that list what pigments are used.
Chloe is set for a long time now though XD.
eek i wouldn’t like that the pans don’t fit in the box right. i bought a handmade sparkle watercolour set from etsy pearlgrays and she made sure the boy fit the 30 paints really nice
I am drooling over the set you got!! I've bought a VERY expensive watercolor set from Etsy as well. From a seller who goes by Jazper Stardust. I also love his handcarved paintbrushes, though they are insanely expensive. His 72 half pan set and a single brush cost me over $500!! And they didnt come in a beautiful box as yours did. But im in love with them!! (The ones i got AND the ones you got!)
might mean he spend more effort in his products. rather than quickly made things and spend more effort on packaging.
@@ghoulchan7525 oh he does! I follow him on IG and he sometimes posts videos of his method...I love to watch them.
Would have never thought that somebody would be interested in such a large wathercolor set. I always used a set of 24 and mixed the new colors I wanted.
I spent $165 in this ladies shop on individual half pans and only 8ish out of over 25+ of them actually worked. The rest of them couldn’t be activated no matter what I did. I tried scraping the top off in case there was something on it. I even tried using it facedown in water the actual half pan and barely got anything but crumbly pigment like it was a cheap pastel.
I will not write a negative review however because I think she’s still perfecting her craft and her colour range is beautiful and well priced if they actually worked. And the few that I did have, I had to get rid of two or three because when you touch them after they had completely dried, they were dusty and came off on my hands like chalk. I was very disappointed, but I did get a partial refund.
I'm kind of a collector of handmade watercolor so I have a few of this maker's paints as well. The ones I got were like mini pan samples and while most worked (the glitter ones are hard to activate), they almost remind me of like...makeup. But like you, I wouldn't want to be negative about a handmade maker because it's a lot of work and they weren't awful, just not as great as others I've got.
i Love the way chloe is girl mathing this purchase
You’re painting came out great! I’m pretty much a beginner/hobbyist at most art mediums. I have a lot of different mediums as I like making different kinds of art and sometimes I might want to paint, other times I might want to use colored pencils, etc.
I do collage so I use lots of things together.
Is that the Lilo and stitch house!? One of my favourite films 🥰
Have you considered painting the edge of a book or set of books? Use these new watercolors and do something fun.
Great video, loved the Homage to Lilo and Stitch :)
Fun! I've been slowly experimenting with watercolor here and there, and I got a few (like 6, lol) fancy handmade pans from an Etsy seller. The fancy ones definitely have a learning curve.
(Just so you know, the outro music is way louder than the rest of the audio)
wow! lilo and stitch. love it.
I love the painting! I would love that in my room with some Spain pics I took
i have tubes of watercolors sitting somewhere. i should really get them out. ur painting inspired me ^_^
the crayola watercolor from the dollar shop is 🔛🔝
This is wonderful to watch 🎉
