You must have put a lot of work into this info-packed video. The world of pigments can be confusing and intimidating. You've presented it with a clear, concise, and engaging approach. I think this is an excellent introduction to pigments for beginning watercolorists. As an intermediate/advanced painter, I also found a whole lot of value in this. Thank you!

Ah yes, pthalo greens, the ones that refuse to wash out of my brush bristles. Sometimes it takes me a good few minutes with the brush soap to get the pthalo greens out

8:29 - I love those paints tubes and the brushes as backdrop to your swatches!! Great idea, so much so that I have just created my own little stamp of a paint tube! The brushes are supercool too, I might steal this idea too for my swatches. Thank you so much for your inspiration - and also for all that interesting info you give in this video!!

Amazing viedo! Haven't come accross alot of people who explained pigments so thanks alot! But I think I have to rewatch it a few times specially when I'm buying new watercolors. My favorite watercolors are New gamboge (W&N), Indigo (W&N) and Quinacridone magenta (schminke).

You are so knowledgeable. You should become a watercolour personal shopper for people like me and am sure many out there. Who have to adhere to certain budget to work with. You have very friendly and kind nature, are full of knowledge and you are very authentic. You give so much of your time, sharing your knowledge and trying out so much with your own money to give right information to others. Thank you. I am very grateful to you for creating this channel and am sure you will be a great personal shopper people would love to work with when it comes to watercolour.

I just love how it looks for any reason. Maybe also because I just love London and England in general 😝 but it's such a beautiful and lovely colour! 😍 Edit: it's English red! Not London red.

Thank you for such a great video on a very hazy subject (for me,at least)! It took me 2 years to finally understand,that paints containing the same pigment could have different names! I thought, if it's called differently, it's different colour. 😂 But, to coin a fraze - it's not shameful not to know, it's shameful not to learn! Love your humour and enthusiasm, your haul videos are pure joy to watch, because your delight with your new goodies just jumps off the screen and feels a bit like watching a kid getting a Christmas gift, which was dreamed of since forever!

Loved this video! So much work!! I really enjoy watching / reading about pigments. I first started digging after hearing people mention light-fastness and I was intrigued by that, then some of the other properties caught my attention. I love Dr Oto Kano and Jane Blundell’s sites/channel. I need to check out Handprint by Bruce. My main interest in pigments these days is to understand how to use the information to my advantage for better mixes. As for favourite pigment? That’s a tough ask. I do enjoy granulating pigments for landscapes, so depending on what I’m painting, I might choose a granulating pigment. Too many colours to narrow down further!

I was watching a tutorial the blend of colours were stunning to my eyes, I tried it and it was OK but not close to what I hoped for, so I watched the video again and she mentioned single pigments, which peeked my sudden interest, as a newbie I'm not sure which pigments are my favourites yet but the knowledge is very important. loving your hair and the blooper 🤣 hugs❤

Thank you Janelle! That’s a good point 😂 I never really thought of them s as a family as I only use ultramarine blue , it’s main properties are that it is a large pigment and thus tends to be granulating, easy to lift / non staining and lightfast. 💙

Hello, i just found your channel and this video is packed with information, thank you! Im fairly new to watercolor and when im watching a youtube tutorial quite often i will need a substitute for a color as the person is using one i dont have in my palette.

Thank you so much for making this video. I’ve had artist grade watercolors for a bout 2-3 years now but for a while I was scared to use them because I didn’t know which pigments are toxic and which are safe and around that time I developed really bad anxiety that made it difficult for me to use any art supplies (even regular graphite because I was so scared of harming my health) 😭 turns out I the only toxic colors that I have were the Holbein cerulean blue (although it doesn’t have a sticker on it and does have the AP logo) and quinacridone opera and a few colors that might cause skin sensitization. I’ve now kind of gotten over my fear of using them although I really do wish I could use cobalts but I heard the way it’s extracted is very unethical and it’s still toxic and expensive :,) do you know of any hues that are close?

Thank you for watching and your lovely words. I'm sorry to hear about your health anxiety and I am glad that things have improved. Some brands will have "cobalt hue" or "cerulean hue" which won't contain the cobalts ... they are usually phthalo blue mixed with white. Hope that helps xx

Great video! Does anyone know of a database that has info on toxicity in pigments that is easy to understand? I’m avoiding toxicity in my paints because of my cats but all the info the brands put out is hard to understand and some colours arent as obviously documented as toxic as, say, the cadmium’s. Also my favourite colours are the dark violet brown pr101 colours. Sometimes called caput mortuum or Indian red!😍 earth tones in general ROCK!
