- I placed this order with Choosing Keeping in November 2020, and in this video I'll share with you the unboxing of several beautiful art supplies, ranging from paints to paper to ink and more! I'll swatch the paints so that we can have a look at the colours, test the ink, and create a piece of artwork using some of my new supplies. I hope that you enjoy seeing what I've bought, and it gives you an idea of the unique materials and products you can find at Choosing Keeping!

I discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago and have been binge watching your videos since then. I love to watch you swatching colors, it's so relaxing and satisfying 😊
That's so lovely to hear, thank you Anna! I'm so pleased that you're enjoying the videos. 🧡
your videos are always so aesthetically pleasing, keep it up! 💕
Thank you so much! ♡
You make me want to eat the paint! It becomes Sooooooo very enticing when you swatch🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I’m a hungry man really enjoying his food watching swatching🤓😜🤪🍓🫒🍕🥓
Beautifully wrapped and beautiful goodies but way out of my price range, must win the lottery lol
Definitely not an every day purchase!
Hello Natasha! I really enjoyed seeing the unwrapping and swatching of these new supplies. I especially like the way you get into playing with the colours after you've swatched them. I have been playing around with winter trees in various blues, so it was lovely to see you using the burgundy colour for them. Another great video, take care and keep having fun😊
Thank you so much, Leah! Your winter trees in various blues sound absolutely lovely. Blues and greys will always be a favourite of mine. :)
You are an expert in drawing moon shape 👍. Admire your work.
Thank you so much!
I m beginning to think that Dominic is one lucky bloke👍🏻🙏🏻😉😌
You have a positive attitude and look to the future…good one lol.
It's always such a lovely thing to unbox something from Choosing Keeping,like opening little treasures. I'm glad you went for the other two Retro Gansai Paint sets. I have all three and they work really well together. I think working with a limited palette of colours really pushes you creatively. I think the colours in the 1980's set are quite close to colours you use in your work particularly when you wowrk with pencils. I wonder if thry asked artists to create these colour palettes in these sets as I always feel when I use them that only an artist could have put these colours together.I have ordered some f their hand made papers as I want to make a sketchbok with them as a gift fror a artist friend. I know you have the seasonal set of Gansai paints too, and these retro sets also work well with that set. I have all the seasonal sets too and I often ude all of them and the retro sets together, they do somehow all compliment each-other really well.look forward to future videos using these supplies.I lve the simplicity of the piece you createdbut it made great use of the colour you chose to paint with.
It really is! It's very special, isn't it? I agree with you about the 1980s set - I think that it's the closest one to my usual palette. I know that I'm going to enjoy using these a lot and I'm looking forward to combining them too. The sketchbook you're going to be making for your friend sounds wonderful - lucky friend! Thanks for your comment, take care Matt. :)
The retro sets of watercours are by Keratake Gamsai Tambi and they have sets of 24, 36 & 48. I just purchased the 38 after having their smaller palette of 6 gold/bronze variations called Starry Nights & the mettalics colour version Gem Colors. I believe the smaller sets can also be purchased as Fine Tec, but they are obviously Keratake Gamsai Tambi with another name on it. My large set I only just received as with the gem pallet so after watching your lovely placing of brushstrokes I am eager to start painting. I will be making an order with choosing keeping as soon as I recover from my recent purchases, and that's how the algorithm led me to you. Your newest subscriber from Australia xxx
Ah, I've seen the Starry Nights palette - it looks so pretty! Enjoy playing with your new paints; I love the larger Kuretake Gansai palettes as they have such a great variety of colours. Thank you for watching and subscribing; I hope that you enjoy the videos and find them useful! ♡ xx
You would absolutely love the gem palette and it would suit your work splendidly!!
It goes beyond saying that the starry nights one would work as well.
@@clairewalters8238 They do look amazing! I hope that you're enjoying using your new paints. :)
I can never write in a straight line/on the level either, lol. Those retro paint sets are so pretty! I love the look of that indigo ink too. What a great store!
Ha ha, I'm glad I'm not the only one! ;)
Oh Natasha ~ I also meant to ask you (below - in previous comment;) if you found that you had any ‘repeat’ colour pans across any of all the ‘Choosing Keeping’ curated paint sets you’ve purchased thus far?? I think I’ve now watched all your CK paint sets swatching videos, thus why I was wondering if there were any crossovers?? Overall, all the sets looked lovely, with perhaps the exception of a couple of colours I personally don’t like/use ie bright purple! 🟣🥴 I think I’d have a hard time picking a favourite set!! 🤔🎨🤩🩷🧡💚🩵
Thank you for that information. I love your work. Looking forward to see more.
Barbara
You're welcome, Barbara, and thank you!
such a lovely relaxing video!
Thank you! 😊
Great video! Thanks for sharing♥️
Thank you, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it! 🧡
I’ve never met an artist who can write straight across the page w/o it going wonky so you’re right where you should be🤭🤫🤫🤫
Love this vid! How long did it take to ship after you placed your order? :)
Not long, if I recall correctly! Maybe a few days?
I love trees on the hand made paper. It makes your work look quite different. Is it like khadi paper? I love khadi paper. Lovely art material choices x
Thanks Lesley! Yes, it's a little bit like Khadi paper, but I'd say even more textured/rough. It's beautiful paper; I just have to work in a slightly different way when I'm using it! x
Hi hi 🤗 your circles are so perfect lol I liked the trees you drew too. 👍🏾 was there a reason you chose the 70s and 80s sets and not the 60s?
Hi Selja! Thank you. 💖 I actually have the 1960s set already! I bought it in the summer; it was part of the first order I placed with Choosing Keeping (there's a video of that one on my channel too), so I decided to complete my collection with the 1970s and 1980s sets!
@@NatashaNewtonArt ah gotcha! New subscriber problems lol! I’ll check it out
Is there anything you can do to ask them to give you a discount code for your subscribers?
Hi Erika, thanks for watching! I'm not sponsored by Choosing Keeping - all of the products were purchased with my own money and I'm sharing them with my viewers because I love the shop and want to spread the word about it! If one day I ever am sponsored by them (or anyone else) I will be sure to ask. :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt ok cool. I was asking because I love their stuff like you, but I live in Canada so their stuff for me is super expensive. Trying to find any way I can to be able to afford my first order 😊
That 1980s palette was quite interesting! I'm usually more into muted tones but I must say that those colors were very pretty (I don't think I would know what to do with the very bright (fluo?) orange though! 😅).
Thanks for sharing this with us Natasha. I'm always looking forward to watching your art hauls! Have a great weekend!
@@erikaweihmayer4793 I totally understand! If I place an order with them in the future and film another video, I'll actually tell them in advance and ask about a possible code for my subscribers. It can't hurt to ask! ;)
@@valerier8350 Thanks Valérie, I hope that you have a great weekend too! I must admit that I'm not sure at the moment how I'm going to include the fluorescent red in my work, but we'll see! I do love the 1980s palette though; as you say the colours are so pretty. :)
I thoroughly enjoyed watching you unwrap your ‘Choosing Keeping’ goodies! 🎁💝 Lovely 70’s & 80’s paint sets, including that bright/neon orange colour - probably not an easy colour to use! However I did see another UA-camr (Parul Arora) who had also purchased this same 80’s set - paint a page full of different cute bugs & butterflies & in another one of her videos ~ she painted a really gorgeous & quirky chair she’d seen at a museum - using this orange pop of colour!! 😻🎨🩷🪑🧡 *** If you’re curious to take a look at it, here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/Z3FFlXNaYB0/v-deo.html&si=gFGUkfuHbUL12Yo3
As. A left handed person my writing goes down - yours goes up! After this lockdown I am hoping to go up to London to finally visit this amazing shop!
Wouldn't that be lovely? I've yet to visit it in person, but I'd really love to. So interesting about the left-handed writing too - I'd never considered that!
Do you ever feel your pulse rate go up when you’re swatching new colors and when they activate you kind of lose your breath? I don’t know, I’m probably just bonkers and there’s the proof🤣😜🤪🥰❤️🔥👍🏻
Hello
How do u order long distance
I'm in USA
Hi Barbara, I'm not affiliated with Choosing Keeping (I just love to shop there!) but I believe you can select 'international shipping' at checkout. There should be some options, as I know of several people who have placed an order with them and who live in the US. Good luck!
I keep staring at the boxes of Japanese watercolours because the characters are upside down 😅
Ha, I always wondered which way up they should go! ;)
