I started with the classics. If it still moves take it out and push it more until it locks firmly in place. They come in 3 different sets and it's so hard to choose a favorite. Before using your paints it is a good idea to wet them, this helps to activate the pigments in the paints and you won’t have to scrub your brush around to get them started. This is my favourite way to use watercolours and as such, I felt that it would test the paints to the fullest in a style I was comfortable with. This way you get an idea of what the colour will look like at its most concentrated, mid value and dilute. As I mentioned, the paints rewet easily and were highly pigmented but diluted nicely to give the mid and lighter values. As for the brushes, it felt quite natural to be honest, but when I colour with markers I often have a few open at the same time for blending and so it just felt like an extension of that. Oh I’ll go and check out your cards on IG Beverly. Rather than be daunted by the watercolour world out there, I would much rather someone picked up one of these cute and colourful palettes and actually gave watercolour a try and had fun learning to love this wonderful media. (New Release!) I’ve linked all supplies at the end of this post. In Part 2 of this video, I paint a floral watercolour card with these paints and had a lovely time doing so. I really need to get a larger floral stamp to practice on as I find most are too small and detailed so it doesn’t allow enough space to practice on. I know it’s cliche but it is so true as well and that is to ‘enjoy the journey’! In fact, I’ve heard of people buying the Prima Watercolor Confections just for the palette and filling them with their favourite colours. This is very easily fixed. These colors are very highly saturated, they almost look like gouache so you can play with both and I bet they will last for a loooooong time. The quality of these palettes is great and the price point is not unreasonable for the palette alone. I haven’t watercolored a more classic/formal floral image in a long time so I’m going to give it a go. I rearranged the colours into one of the palettes and doing this I was able to fit 21 paints in the cute palette. Thank you so much for this detailed review! [CDATA[ Press the space key then arrow keys to make a selection. If a paint is translucent the black line will look as black as normal, but if not then the line will appear murky. Have you tried the Prima Watercolor Confections palettes? by Debby | May 28, 2018 | CARDS, VIDEO | 18 comments. document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) I remove all the colors and unwrap them. :O), Thank you, Debby, for the wonderful video and tips for using the Primas. The pans are numbered instead of having names and they run from 1 to 36, with 12 on each set. You guys know how much I love to watercolour and as it is probably my most favourite colouring medium I enjoy trying out supplies which are new to me. You're going to get a brand new set of watercolors that you can take anywhere with you anywhere, a refillable watercolor brush and a small watercolor pad that will help you make your swatches and favorite color combinations. :D). You can find links to the supplies I’ve used below; click on the picture or shop icon to get taken directly to the product. As for chalky, I wouldn’t have described them as that when painting, but perhaps those ones with less transparency have a chalky appearance when dry due to the filler or whatever it is that makes them less transparent. Each half pan has a paper wrapper with an indication of the colour and also the number and name of the paint printed. Thank you! I love what you achieve and it looks so easy when you do it; however, it is not easy at all for me…quite a challenge! For the leaves, I combined Palms and Tiki from the Tropicals palette to give a nice desaturated green for the leaves which toned with the muted colours I’d chosen for the flowers. For Part 2 of this review, I will be using the Prima Watercolor Confections palettes to paint a floral greeting card with a no line watercolour style. a) more affordable than the equivalent in tubes and b) possibly more approachable to new or beginner watercolourists. Using two brushes means that I can keep the paint on my dedicated paintbrush to add concentrated spots of colour to areas where you would expect shadows and deeper colour such as the base of petals or where one petal overlaps another. I use one of two ways to wet my paints. But I had brought so many supplies with me on vacation that I didn’t purchase them at that time. Definitely keep going with the watercolours. There are two deep mixing wells in the lid of the palette and a flap that folds out has 4 angled smaller wells giving a total of 6 wells for mixing but you can also use the areas around the smaller wells for mixing too. The metal tin is sturdy and it reminds me of the Shmincke Watercolor sets, which are very expensive. Promotions, new products and sales. I don’t know why it has taken me so long to discover this, but I recently started painting with two brushes, one for the paint and one for a damp brush of water. I got so engaged in the process that I forgot to take pics of the process between the sketch and the girl! :D Thank you for all your work making these videos!!!♥. With the no line watercolour style where you don’t have visible lines to help define one area from another it is important to use every trick available to create definition so shadows and highlights, varying colour and saturation, detail lines vs areas with more open space. I can then use my brush which is just damp with water to draw out the colour over the rest of the petal and blend it to the lightest shades where the light is hitting it. I used a strong concentration of paint at the top of each swatch area over the black line to get the best impression of translucency and then I diluted the concentration as I bought the colour down the swatch. There is a swatch card detailing the numbers of the paints in each row. To be honest, I’d say no, however, would I still enjoy using them? I’ve drawn a thick black line across the areas to be swatched using a waterproof marker.
