Worthwhile experiment, lovely result. Thank you for reminding me also that the evolving or super granulating paints (which I also love) often are better wet-in-wet so that the pigment particles have more time and space in the water to separate to create their intended effect.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching! I agree, these colours do "shine" when painted wet into wet. I love the unpredictable results - they are always such a surprise.

Oh! My all time favorite thing about watercolor is color and granulation exploration. Thank you for this, it's a real treat. I haven't explored this mix much, but I've started using Tans Red Ox instead of Burnt Sienna lately and I love it! Gorgeous scenes! 🌻

[@AnastasiaMily]

Granulation is my absolute favourite watercolour texture! I love how different paints create different granulating effects too. Transparent Red oxide mixes so well with Sodalite Genuine too, for a very moody warm grey, it’s gorgeous. Have fun!!! And thank you for watching my videos 😊

[@anasel-mahdi7908]

Two colors + talented artist = two beautiful watercolor paintings.👍Thanks

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching and for your kind comment!

[@butterpoweredbike6135]

I keep seeing your mountains pop up in my IG suggestions and I instantly know who made them. I could watch you paint mountains all day! DS transparent red oxide is one of my favorite colors because it so closely resembles the red rocks near my home. I got potter's pink because of you and have been playing around with recreating some of the Schmincke super granulating mixes.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching! Mountains are one of my favourite subjects to paint 😊 And Potter’s Pink is such a beautiful and useful colour… Isn’t it the most incredible fun mixing it with all kinds of other colours 🤩 I don’t think there is a colour it wouldn’t work with!

[@barbriley583]

Surprise ending!!! Wonderful ❣️

Stunning ❤!!! Thanks for sharing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching and for your kind words 😊❤️❤️❤️

[@richardsemione7012]

Two wonderful works of art. I understand why you love to use those two colors. They are such good representatives of sky and earth that balance each other in the most natural way. Thanks for that great demonstration of technique and artistry.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much, for watching and for your kind words! These colours are so soothing too, not too vibrant, and they combine beautifully into a range of earthy tones…

[@yvonnegeelen6571]

This is really interesting I am so going to play with my paints now Thankyou so much for sharing

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching, and have fun playing with your watercolours!!

[@milenabdesign]

So gorgeous! Both of them.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much!! And thank you for watching this video.

[@ChantelleArts]

This is so cute, I love it ☺☺

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much 😊

[@SlySkippy15]

Wow crazy how they are so similar. Thank you for sharing. I don’t have tundra, but I’d do have brown and red oxide and UM. 😃

[@AnastasiaMily]

They do look so much alike! Have fun mixing your oxides and ultramarine!

[@sbev9107]

Brilliant videos. I love the way that the blues separates from the brown. Using the same two colours throughout the painting is so effective. I have just purchased some transparent red oxide so can’t wait to have a go. Your mistake was very reassuring for me also 😅 ❤️

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching 😊 Transparent Red Oxide is such a great colour to have on your palette - I love it on its own and in mixes. Have fun playing with it!

[@user-fq8wi8qn6z]

Очень красиво!

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much!

[@sharoncatalano1977]

Pretty. It reminds me a bit of Daniel Smith Moonglow but has a bit more red to it.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much! I agree, it does look a bit like Moonglow, just with a bit more red, and from what I remember Moonglow has a hint of cool blue in it too.

[@francoforleo4971]

As always… excellent 🙏🇿🇦🎨

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much 😀

[@joycesnodgrass7068]

Thank you! I'm eager to try this color combination. 😍

[@AnastasiaMily]

It is such a fun one to play with! Thank you Joyce 😊

[@Jlalode]

A very versatile mix!

[@AnastasiaMily]

It is indeed! Such a fun mix to use in landscape painting. Thank you for watching!

[@beatrixkogler8938]

Gosh! This experiment was so interesting to watch and the results are magnificent. I'll try for myself these or simelar grantulating colors. I wonder if I can create something at all 🤭😅. But anyhow I'll try . Thanks dear for showing and inspiring us all. Loooove your art!!😍🥰😘

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you 😊 It is such a fun little experiment! Enjoy mixing your granulating colours - I am sure the results will be lovely!

Thank you for watching and for your kind words Julie 😊

[@joanl3115]

I’ve not seen much granulation used in clouds so thank you for sharing this🖌️🖼🎨. BEAUTIFUL 👏‼️. Purchased a granulating medium recently so you’ve motivated me to finally try it.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much! I love using granulating colours for my skies as I often use a lot of water there and the water really lets that granulation “develop”. Granulating colours are my favourite 😊

[@user-vr7sm6wp7q]

C’est une belle démonstration que j’ai beaucoup aimé. Je n’avais pas de Rex oxyde, je l’ai remplacé par sienne de quinacridone. Utilise tu un papier à grain fin ou un papier torchon( Rough). Merci encore pour ce beau partage

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching! Quinacridone Sienna would be such a lovely choice for this mix too! Glad you enjoyed playing along. I used cold press paper here (it is also what I used the most as it has such a lovely texture).

[@63mona]

Dziękuję! Spróbowałam. Nie jest idealnie (inne kolory) ale udało się. :)

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching 😊 Glad you had fun playing with the colours!

[@sesanger712]

Bonjour Anastasia Je vous ai vu une fois dans une vidéo utiliser un spalter pouvez-vous me dire lequel utilisez-vous Merci

[@AnastasiaMily]

Hi, I think it was my hake brush you saw me using - I have two of those, size 6 (60mm wide) and size 3 (30mm wide), they are both goat hair. They are by Australian brands called Art Basics and NEEF but from what I have seen, hake brushes by different brands all look and perform in a similar way. I hope this helps! Thank you for watching my videos!

[@BeeCeeCreations]

How can I use subtitles in your videos? My English is not so good😢

[@AnastasiaMily]

I am so sorry for the lack of subtitles in my videos…
