CHRISTMAS WATERCOLOUR ART HAUL ✷ Schmincke Horadam Super Granulation, Wallace Seymour Watercolors

[@deniseneville5365]

Favourites are Desert Yellow, Glacier Blue and Terre Verte.

[@hArtyTruffle]

And that Glacier Green ❤️

[@KittehNow]

Glacier green and Glacier brown...💚🤎💚🤎💚🤎

[@fuzzydragons]

love that Terre Verte, its a lovely green😀

[@jam4441]

Lovely video, beautiful colours.... cant choose a favourite.

[@valeriesmith15]

The colours are pretty, but my favourites are Glacier green, turquoise, blue and Lochaber quartzmica.

[@sarah_hedges_creates]

What a gorgeous video! Those Wallace Seymour watercolours are beautiful, I think my favourites are the paler shades and the Terre Verte x

[@jennyb-aeternabitart7436]

Not come across Wallace and Seymour before - thanks for sharing them with us! I can totally understand your idea of using them for birds' eggs - after you said that, it looked like you were swatching birds' eggs rather than pebbles...! 🤭 As for favourite colours, that's a difficult one because they're all so beautiful! 🤔 I like the Schmincke granulation range too - especially the unexpected colours that pop out like the red tones in a green - but I think the glacier brown may be my favourite here... Maybe the W&S Davey's grey... Because "all the colours" isn't really telling you my favourite! 😁 Maybe also the W&S terre verte with white mica highlights? (if combo's are allowed 😉) That could be my favourite birds' egg? 😁 My daughter had NO trouble with her favourite - glacier turquoise followed by the terre verte! 😍

[@beccascraps8141]

Glacier turquoise and desert green ❤

[@mial105]

Hi Natasha! I love the glacier green and glacier black and the desert green.

[@angbat3270]

I was looking at Wallace Seymour on line. Will def be investing in some soon. Such interesting names for the paints. However hangman's ochre sounds a bit macabre. Interested in trying their gouache. I hear Daniel smith are bringing out a range of gouache perhaps that could be an idea for a future Natasha swatch. Merry Xmas all arty souls!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Ooh, that's a scary sounding colour!

[@twizzle1710]

I loved the Seymour paints. Very wonderful.

[@mariac4602]

Lochnabar quartz is gorgeous!

[@SusanCat5098]

I love that Torridon River Gravel

It's a gorgeous colour and I LOVE the texture!

The glacier brown! A comment from Scotland, from where i will check out the local paints

Glacier green and desert green...lovely colors

[@AzaleaLala]

Desert Green and the Turquoise in the first group. For the second one I love the Soot, but they are all beautiful colors.

[@moniquerigling3577]

Another relaxing video! Thank you!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

You're more than welcome, Monique! Thank you for watching.

[@ChantelleArts]

that schmincke desert green is a gorgeous shade! 😍 I haven't been able to make the splurge for any shmincke yet unfortunately

[@avirtualcanvas7584]

Always lovely to see see a haul and searching video from you Natasha,to hear why you chose the colours and how they will be used in your amazing work.I think as we evolve as artists the way we see colour does change,and we see potential in newer colours and also those new colours can also lead to changing our work too,can spark new ideas.I think the bird egg idea would look amazing,but I think the granulating paints would also be good for feather paintings too.I must admit I did treat myself for Christmas with some new colours from the A Gallo paints (I may be addicted to their paints!).I am going to look into the Wallace Seymour paints,as that Terre Verte looked really stunning,of the other colours you shared with us,I loved the Dessert yellow,then the Glacier Black,Glacier,Green,Glacier Blue and the Glacier Turquoise is really beautiful.I love that the Wallace Seymour paints are mineral based pigments,will check out the artrec site and put together a palette of these beautiful colours.I definitely think pebble swatching is THE way to Swatch!,as it does show the colours so well.(Matt) p.s wishing you and Dominic a really happy Christmas and an inspiring and creative new year

[@suesummers8813]

Love Glacier Green

[@sonyaoart]

Oh those Wallace and Seymour paints are lovely! I have the Glacier super-granulating set, it’s lovely too. My favourite of all these is the Desert green though, stunning separation! Always love your videos, have a happy new year x

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Happy New Year, Sonya! x

[@megperry5586]

Beautiful colors! I have also been to Scotland once and these are the colors I remember! Love your pebbles

[@Lisatheecologist]

I love the desert green. it reminds me almost of the outside of an avocado

[@conkrotwife]

I found an Etsy seller who sold 1/4 pans of the granulating sets, I love the glacier sets the best, the blues are so dreamy. I’m so intrigued by the Scottish paints!

[@willemijnkamerling4011]

What a lovely 17-ish min break from the Christmas music we've been listening to non stop for three days 😊 we've all got the flu/covid and had to cancel all Christmas plans. Yet three days of quiet has been lovely. We've had wonderful food, watched home alone again and built Christmas lego sets we got under the tree 🥰 from the first ten I actually like the browns and the turquoise. From the second set that extra green is beautiful! Wishing you a merry Christmas and lots of joy using your new colours 🎄

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm so sorry to hear that you've all been ill, but very glad to hear that you're having a lovely Christmas anyway! :) x

[@jennyb-aeternabitart7436]

Hope you're feeling better now. 🤗 Glad you had some good times even though Christmas wasn't quite as planned. We spent quite a bit of time with the lego sets under our tree too. 😊 [I'm reporting the creepy message that has been replied to a lot of the comments on this video, having had one myself. And reading all the comments. I wanted to reply to you - being ill at Christmas sucks! Sending hopes that you have a happy and healthy 2023. 🤗]

Beautiful colours! I can see you're gonna have me spending my pocket money on more paints in 2023!😂🥰

[@wendychampness1901]

Love these swatches! Too many to choose, the greens and the quartzes.

[@jessicastrideart]

If I had to pick one it would be the Gustave Doré Marron. I love the Arran Red Sandstone too. I quite like the Oxford Bluestone Green Earth, it's like raw umber but slightly greener and beautifully granulating!x

[@awatercolourist]

Oxford Ochre, Lochsber Quartz Mica, Trogsach Mudstone. And Glacier Turquoise and Glacier Blue.

[@sandypea]

Thank you sooooo much for sharing! I have been dying to find Wallace Seymour FOREVER!!!

[@LizNori]

Hi Natasha, those swatches are candy for my eyes 😍, I would frame them !! Surprisingly, I think the most appealing to me is the davy's gray... happy holidays!

[@hArtyTruffle]

I like all of them but, that Desert Green really sticks out for me. It’s absolutely stunning! Gotta get me some of that 🫶🏻 I keep trying to remember to swatch in pebbles. Like you say, it shows a lot more about each paint. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas ✨🎄✨

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you, and a very Happy Christmas to you!

[@SarahBurnsStudio]

I think Glacial Green stole my heart! But that terra verte is a close second... Happy holidays! 🎄

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Both beautiful colours for sure!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

And I hope that you and Wolfy have a very Merry Christmas!

[@louisebourne5779]

Hi Natasha, Lovely swatching Video, loved all the colours it’s so difficult to choose. I like the look of the Wallace Seymour paints the colours and texture they give are amazing. Hope you have a very Happy Christmas and a Very Happy New Year 🎄🎁Lots of love to you xxx 💗

Desert yellow and glacier turquoise 🤩

[@angelaschredl9245]

These colors are all so beautiful 😍 Loved Terre Verte, the two light Quarz colors and desert green the most! And your swatching pebbles do almost look like birds eggs. Merry Christmas to you and your partner.

Awesome!!! Merry Christmas and stay warm and safe. Here in Michigan USA a blizzard is heading in to ruin plans. My dachshunds and I will stay home and celebrate late. I will watch before the storm starts tonight. Thx. - Lue

[@sophiahodgson85]

Out of the ten super granulating I like the glacier green and glacier turquoise best. I love the idea of using the paler Wallace and Seymour paints for birds eggs! And my favourite Wallace and Seymour is the terre Vert.

[@sueallen952]

Hi Natasha will you be doing a video on your lovely decorations like you did I think last year, it was a lovely video showing your tree and decorations

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I've filmed a little at my mum's cottage for Christmas this year, Sue. Coming in a vlog soon!

[@firby7341]

amazing haul as always! maybe ill treat myself to a halfpan of desert green and glacier green, those looked stunning dry when you could see the colorseperation!

[@FaithAnnNB]

Love the “pebble” swatching style, I may have to give that a try the next time I’m swatching 😊. All beautiful colours. I’m particularly drawn to that desert set of granulating colours. Merry Christmas!

[@maryannprzybycien2013]

I always get excited when I see you've posted another pebble swatching video. 😁 I have the Schminke Desert Green and Glacier Green and love them! The Wallace Seymour paints are so beautiful. I will have to try a couple. Merry Christmas to you and yours! 🎄

[@ChrissieNicely]

Lovely colours! 😀😍 - Merry Christmas for you and Dominic! I hope you will enjoy New Years and wish you all the best and more beautiful art supplies! 😉🤗🍾🥂

[@bellammmp]

Lovely as always! And don't forget you've GOT to get the "Galaxy" set at some point!! 🤗

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Very tempting!

[@mnap1595]

8:48 I believe this is the result of flocculation, particularly since you can already see it in the palette, though that could also just be due to a less finely ground pigment in the binder. Either way, it's a neat effect. And the Morar White Quartz looks like it could be really amazing for painting white marble subjects. I keep editing my response, because the Wallace Seymour paints are just so wonderful! I love the appearance of the Rhymer's Soot when dried. Torridon River Gravel could also work well for shaggy sheep, I think. Thanks for sharing these!

[@amberrundell]

Oh gosh I think I love them all lol i really liked the blues and greys from that set but the highland set and Oxford set r so beautiful I think I’m going to have to get some of these this year they look amazing ❤

[@sofieaspeslagh6084]

I was very close to buying that same highland set from the same shop but talked myself out of it. I might be tempted to change my mind now...

[@heatharose]

Nice and relaxing… I like big palettes and I cannot lie.

[@theartofetta]

Those colours are all so beautiful 😍 I think the desert green from the first set and the quartz mica from the second set may be my favourite 🩷

The Wallace Seymour vintage colors remind me of the iridescent Williamsburg oil paint set.

[@pennypop408]

Is there a you tube video of the oil paint set I can watch?

Desert Green is on my wish list! I also have Glacier Green and love it. The Wallace Seymour vintage watercolors are lovely. Happy Holidays. ❤

Happy Holidays to you too!

[@janscott9151]

Arran red sandstone is wonderful and the terre verte was a delight as well. For the Schminke it has to be the desert green. Happy Christmas.

[@mariansmartt]

Great colors! I love the way you swatch paints and your soothing voice is dreamy❤️❤️

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Marian!

[@schuyler6583]

Oh wow, the three light colors on the right of your second swatch page - morar white quartz, lochaber quartz mica, and davy's grey - really would be perfect for bird eggs! Would love to see your take on bird eggs. They make me think of seagulls and other beach bird nests for some reason, maybe because they're swatched with some sandy/beachy colors. Beautiful!

[@nancyloomis3046]

Out of the 1st 10: 1) Glacier Turquoise, 2) Desert Green 3) Desert Yellow. 👍Out of the 2nd group 1)Oxford Ochre (reminds me of a potato) 2) Gustavo Dore Marron 3) Torridon River Gravel.

[@LuGam-vf1yi]

love your channel. However one small thing. after you do a swatch, it would be nice to then see how you would apply the colours to an artwork.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I don't tend to do this in the swatching videos because it would make the videos very long, but I do show examples of my work in other videos (for example, my recent favourites video from early December) where I shared how I use the different materials and colours in my work. I also try to talk a little bit here and there in the swatching videos about how I'd use the colours in my work, even if I don't show examples.

[@getjiggywithsam3572]

Wow I'm always amazed at how gorgeous the granulation colours are! I couldn't pick a favourite because they're all stunning. One day I'll have to get my hands on some.

[@marydevivo5773]

[@audreysmocovich8380]

Love your videos, there are always a pleasure to watch. Would you be able to show how you use some of the Horadam Supergranulating sets in an actual painting whenever you can? I saw a video some time ago where the artist was saying that she loves these supergranulating watercolours but she was not able to get good results in actual paintings, especially when doing washes; so I would be interested in seeing how you use them. Desert green is one of my favourites, and funnily enough Glacier brown is the other 😊. We are all different! Thanks Natasha for your generosity in sharing all of these videos with us and have a Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁🍾😘

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I definitely can! I'll try to remember to share them in a video on YT, but if you look on my Instagram today, 18th January, you'll be able to see a Story where I'm sharing a night landscape painting where I used (among other colours) Glacier Green and Glacier Black. I love them and find them very easy to use in my paintings! instagram.com/natashanewtonart

[@lisagoetsch]

I loved the desert and glacier greens, as well as the glacier turquoise and blue. I love how the different paint textures and granulations made your swatches look like either bird eggs or planets.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

This is true! Love that. :)

[@Miniblini]

Hello, I started following you to get some perspective on different waterwlcolors. I naturally radiate towards bright colors, and you have helped me to really appreciate the darker, moodier colors. I have even bought some from jacksons, hopefully successfully using your affiliate link. I was just wondering if you could do a video on your favorite brighter colors! Unless you have already done it :) ....

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you so much for using the link! That's a great idea for a video - jotting that one down in my notes. :)

[@pennypop408]

The two sets were lovely together. The only color I was not all that excited about was the Gustave dore maron. Lacked a bit of life compared to the others but I am sure someone else would love it.

[@bazutaartstudio]

good Christmas present! I have swatched all the Super granulating colours by Schiminke from a dot chart and I can tell from this video that the tubes are way better. And wow, the texture in those Wallace Seymour paints, beautiful!

[@franswey2]

Hello sweet Natasha , Happy New Year! Thank you for sharing your art supply haul. These are the 🍼 “ cream in my coffee “ to learn about art supplies. I think I told you, I live in the middle of Tennessee and all the art stores are around 100 miles away in all directions plus my favorite, Blick’s, is 200 miles away! (I have begged Blick’s to open a store here as it would probably be the most successful store they could have.)The art hauls and swatching and thoughts about the products by talented artist, as yourself, is invaluable information. I love going to the art stores and buying online, both can be overwhelming but now I seldom buy the wrong products. I can get carried away buying “too much” of a product I fall in love with, 😏 if that’s actually possible! I don’t think so. I’m referring to my Caran d’Ache Neocolor’s 😊 of course. Your wonderful KZbin video’s are my coffee ☕️! I love watching you drawing your landscapes. They remind me of folk art, but more beautiful and professional. Everything you do is so helpful for me to grow as an artist and I greatly appreciate all the hard work, time, and expenses you put in to create your videos and artwork. You are wonderful and amazing. May you and Dominic have a successful and Happy New Year! Thank you for sharing my love, Fran

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Fran, what a truly lovely comment! Thank you so much for everything you've said, and both Dominic and I wish you a very Happy and Creative 2023! xx

[@roden70]

The terre verte is my favourite.

[@alexandrasartinsanity]

This was such a lovely video. I keep going back and forth on adding more of the Schmincke Super Granulating colours to my palette, I have so many handmade granulating colours that I worry I won't use them much, but at the same time they are so pretty. Terra Vert is probably my favourite paint colour, I remember seeing somewhere that there are something like 20+ colour variations for PG23 depending on where it is harvested.

QUESTION??? with the Wallace Seymour paints, did they have a granular texture or gritty to the touch after they dried and were you able to wipe that away?? The quartz one looks a lot less grainy/spotted after it dried and looks like it's gone. I just purchased some hand made watercolor and it's much grainier than I'm used too and when dry some wipes away and was wondering if these did the same? I love both of those sets. That verte green is everything. Merry Christmas

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm not in my studio right now (I've been away for 4 weeks) but when I return, I'll see if some of the grittiness wipes away!
