Who noticed the new intro!? ;D
Yes, it's cute!
I did '^' ☆.☆
I prefer paint brushes over water brushes because you have more control and precision, but I love the convenience of water brushes, especially when I don't have a water dish nearby or just feeling lazy!
Definitely paint brush over a water Brush! And you’re intro is great, love how the paintbrush adds color ;)!
I am so new to watercolor, but I definitely like watercolor brushes instead of water brushes. I feel like I have no control with a water brush. I really don't see myself wanting these paints at all. I'm messy enough. 😂 I just loved your little fawn. It wasn't messy at all. It was cute. 😉
Eibmozluver haha thank you! Glad you liked it!
Long time back when I was still in collage I remember had color sheets coming from China, but this is the first time I see this brand. Thank you for sharing.
I use Peerless watercolors and enjoy them. I enjoy using paint brushes with watercolors squeezed fresh from the tube and my water brushes with pan watercolors

I started out using water brushes because they were less intimidating than picking a brush from all the different ones available. As I progressed, I switched to brushes because of having more control over how much water I used. I still use water brushes on occasion especially for taking with me. No mess. Thanks for an informative video.
Brushes have my preference, I find it easier to control them than a water brush :)
I enjoy paintbrushes way more than water brushes. I feel like you have a lot more control with normal paintbrushes.
I have more water-brushes than I can count....well for that matter I can say the same re: paint brushes. My preferences is paint brushes....mainly because of quality as well as control. I plan to play more with water-brushes for lettering as I think I might find them easier for that...
I haven't tried the watercolor inks yet, but I do prefer a mixture of brights and neutrals. And I definitely prefer a brush to a waterbrush.
I really liked the way u r flawless with the water brush....... the most i like in your videos are the way u explain neatly about the colors or about the products u use..!!! and i have not used any water brush till date but i gonna try that after seeing your video.. i really want to try... am not a water color person but ur video makes me fall for them...!!! thanks a lot for explaining in simple ways..!! loads of love from India..........
Gouthami Mattapati thanks so much, that means a lot and I’m so happy that you enjoy my videos 🤗
Paintbrushes all the way! I just feel like I have more control over my art...and boy oh boy, I NEED control over my art!
I prefer paint brushes over water brushes most of the time, however sometimes I just want to paint without thinking too much just to relieve stress or something, and water brushes are great for that I've noticed.
Thank you for the video. I wondered about these paints and now I see I probably wouldn't like them. I prefer paint brushes to water brushes as they give me more control.
#emailcrew wohoo! I've always been skeptical about this watercolours. Glad to see how they work in real life!
Definitely paint brushes over water brushes. This review was helpful, thanks.
Hello Dana!
I prefer regular paint brushes. I find that the water brushes' bristles become kind of weird after a few uses. Unless of course the amateur me didn't use it properly.
Bonjour, c'est super ça :) est ce que tu a utilisé longtemps avant que ça ne soit épuisé ?
They're absolutely fabulous Dana. I wonder though if they're worth the money. It's quite expensive for only a few sheets but I find that with watercolor paper anyway. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the video though. #emailcrew
I also prefer paint brushes over water 💧 brushes. It is much harder to control the water 💧 output on the water brushes
I Thought initially that I would love a water brush, but it turned out I couldn't stand them!! For the same reason- can't control the water.
Dana Fox, just wondering how we will know if we win a copy of your book?
Kim Henderson hi! I leave a reply to any winning comments and get the winners contact details. Once I have that I delete it to keep their info private and prevent random people from claiming it. I pick 2 winners each month so as long as you’re commenting on the prompts you’re always entered :). Hope that helps!
@@thewonderforest Good to know. I just hadn't seen any announcements on any of the other videos so I was wondering. I just ordered your book and will be pre ordering your up coming book. Thanks for the willingness to share your process. I would still be happy to win your book though. I have a niece just starting to watercolor that could benefit from it.
I like the vibrancy and portability of my Viviva sheets, but I also wish there was a better brown color included. Too many oranges and yellows that seem redundant. #emailcrew
I think if they offered a range of palettes it would be great!
Too cool!!! #emailcrew
#emailcrew Pretty Cool. I remember books like this when I was little.
I would like paint brushes because when use them for me I don't feel the control of what l,m colouring probally just for me ▪︎^▪︎>¤< don't judge._.

I jumped on the Viviva bandwagon early last year and I’m sorry to say that I hated them. I still hate them ☹️. They just don’t work for the way I like to paint, wet washes followed by lots of glazes. Oh well. Everyone has their preferences. As for water brushes, I don’t care for them either, but I learned to paint with regular brushes and I think that maybe why.
I hate those stupid water-filled freaking brushes. Hope you are well, enjoyed your video.
I loved this demo. I also loved how the wild flowers turned out and the fawn because of the bright colors. Maybe with your comments, they will come out with more colors. I think I’ll try it mainly because of the compact convenience of it for travel. I love the idea. I wonder how they come together with other actual water color paints if you needed a certain color to add to the painting? Loved the intro and your video as always and your honest comments.
Their very proud of those little notebooks and color sheets. Very pricey but I may order anyway, just saying🤔
I definitely prefer paint brushes. When I AM forced to use a water brush, I usually have a jar of water to dip it in just like a regular brush. Or I use my hand to control the amount of water on it. It's way more annoying than a regular paint brush!
I'm a paint brush gal!
First! Also Peerless did these types of watercolour first over a hundred years ago I think.
Yup, way more colors, but Vivia does an excellent job on packaging.
Haven’t heard of them! Thanks :)
I use both. Not really a preference , just depends on what the piece needs to achieve the look I’m working toward.
I've now bought better quality brushes, so I now prefer brushes over waterbrushes, however the convenience whilst travelling not to have worry about a water vessel.. i have wondered if it was worth buying these watercolours
I liked the idea of water brushes, it seemed convenient, but I can't use them, even for swatches I have ugly strokes.
Yes they are cheap, No they are not worth the price !
Paint brush all the way I like having more control and choosing the stiffness and shape of my brush... plus I find the water brush just doesn’t allow my colors to shine at full strength cause the water dilutes it a bit no matter what. Plien air is all I’d use a water brush for truthfully or I have some with ink in them.
I prefer paint brushes so much more! I only have one brush pen and i never use it. I'm always so scared to squirt out too much water! This book looks like so much fun! I totally agree with the neutral tone thing :)
I prefer the traditional brushes. 😄
I love all the size choices that you don’t find in water brushes. Also the water control is much better with traditional brushes - at least for me. Thanks for the pigment paper demo!
#emailcrew Your animated intro is sooo cute!! :3
I like water brushes for lazier paint activities like hand lettering or doodles. For more detailed / layered illustrations, definitely paint brushes.
I prefer the brushes. I have a little watercolor travel kit that has a water brush and I'm with you on that! - Michelle
I really struggle with the water brushes -- got a travel set of Silver brushes and love them. Not as convenient, but easier to use. #emailcrew
You really have an ability to paint and the paint looks amazing. #emailcrew
Sonia
Definitely paint brushes!
