Gouache Watercolor Hybrid?! Mijello Titanium Class Gouache review

[@ChantelleArts]

it would be really interesting to have a catch up review 6 months down the line to see whether these paints start to crack and if they are still that opaque after re-wetting a lot 😊 I've also never seen a palette like that with an extra row and it looks really cool

[@raquelsalerno5933]

That’s a great idea!

[@claritzairosario68]

For me that I love watercolors...it's a wow!!! When you started to painting this portrait, I look very carefully to see in detail the performance of this set of watercolor gouche. I was thinking in my mind all the things I could do and all the possibilities. I would love to have this set! It's a shame they don't sell it separately. This portrait came out so beautiful! I even think they hold multiple layers. Thats so great to know!!! Thank you for this review 😊❤

[@georgecooper9766]

I adore their watercolours, they're not for people who love flow and granulation but i love the fact they rewet with the slightest touch and are very easy to control on the page. And are very vibrant. I would like to get some nicer gouache at some point and these look like a promising option. Disappointing they dont have individual tubes available at the moment tho.

[@epicipodmodz]

I bought Windsor newton gouache…. I’ve been staring at them while using my himi set they were so expensive I don’t want to use them till I get better haha

[@rebeccahesser8057]

Bought these as soon as they came out!! Love them!!! Better than any other gouache I have tried

[@emhuesart]

They are so lovely aren't they?! Do you ever use them more as watercolors? Or only as gouache?

[@rebeccahesser8057]

@@emhuesartI do use them as watercolor. They are stunning

[@amypanddirtytoo1926]

OOOOOHHH!!! I can't wait to try these! Shin Han make a watercolor/gouache hybrid called Shin Han Pass and those are beautiful to work with. But these seem much better for the lastfast aspect!

[@emhuesart]

Oooh I didn't know that Shin Han had a hybrid paint as well, I'll have to look into those!! I have a few tubes of Shin han watercolours and I really like them! This set seems to have really high-quality/stable pigments, it'll be interesting to see how they hold up over time! 😊

[@ThatLazyStray]

it's probably worth noting you can buy shinhan pass in singular tubes as well, so if you like it, you could use it as a replacement for when you run out of colours in your mijello set.@@emhuesart

[@Bloomkyaaa]

I recently bought Shinhan Pass Design Color Hybrid (fancy ass name) and it's also a watercolor/gouache hybrid! I had no idea Mijello had one too.

[@ohsfer11820]

Seeing your art work made me want to purchase this. That avocado do look like an oil painting.. You did that portrait so effortlessly and I looks so real... i love it❤

[@eallae]

Watching this video just before I start a stressful day at work... not only did it calm me a bit, but it made me want to continue the paiting I've abandonned for weeks. Thank you always for sharing your amazing art ♥

[@ranesantana]

Love your approach. I've been learning so much with your videos!!

[@emhuesart]

Ah I'm so glad! Thank you! 💛

[@blackdurian3601]

I like their idea, and you said even if the liquid become dry, we still can reactived more fast than normal gouache. i think mijelo is one of the okay brand if I am not wrong in my research of wishlist to buy watercolor, because of the lightfast. I hope this new hybrid have a good lightfast too.

[@emhuesart]

Yes, when they dry in the pans they can be used easily with water (easier than normal gouache in my opinion)😄

[@ohheydevin1992]

Incredible work! I absolutely LOVE your brushwork! I've had the Mission Mijello Gold watercolors for years and they are still going strong, totally recommend. These paints look so interesting I'll definitely have to give them a try!

[@emhuesart]

Thank you so much! 💖 I have been wanting to try the Mission Gold watercolors for ages, they look so beautiful and pigmented!

[@art_by_alexandre]

Beam Paints are a sort of watercolour/gouache mix. Some of the paint stones they make are pretty opaque for watercolours which has made it fun to add to my palette. They also have gouache specific paints that are really nice!

[@emhuesart]

I have been wanting to try Beam paints, they look absolutely gorgeous! I didn't know they made goauche paints as well 👀 I may have to give them a try! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@VimblesArt]

the colors in your gouache palette are so pretty!! i love looking at your palette lol

[@emhuesart]

Thank you! It is a satisfying little palette 😊

[@wayfaringspacepoet]

this set looks gorgeous, I'm so tempted to get one for myself! I know there are opaque watercolors that come in pan form from brands such as Pelikan or Lyra, but the one that has yielded the best results for me was from Caran d'Ache, oddly enough. The only complaint i have against it is that the white gouache comes in a tube rather than pan form and it doesn't dry the same way if you try to pan it.

[@Klynkha]

I love you’re take on this! I’ve seen these before, I think from what I heard they are watercolors until you add the white and they function as gouache. They also have more binder or a different binder. I do this with normal watercolors anyway and it work really well with any brand.

[@ivyclough8969]

Omg. I never thought of that! Brilliant

[@emhuesart]

Thank you so much! Yes, it seems like you're right. Though, I do find that even the colors in the set that have titanium white in them (the basic grey and jaune brilliant) are still not quite as opaque as my traditional gouache. Thanks so much for watching! 💖

[@GemmaSampsonArt]

I feel so relaxed after watching this video 😂It was really interesting to learn about the paints, I hadn't heard of them previously. Thanks, Emily 😊

[@emhuesart]

Aw I'm so glad! Thanks for watching Gemma! 💛

[@kellybrassard767]

Wow these seem like a dream to work with!

[@warmyellowshade]

Wow, super interesting medium. I've never tried any mejello paints, but lots of people rave about them. I look forward to seeing the things you paint with this set. Beautiful portrait as usual. ❤

[@emhuesart]

Thanks so much Debby! ❤️ I have heard such great things about Mijello's watercolours as well. These paints are beautiful, but behave in such a unique way, it may take me a while to get used to them 😅

[@yamtebeka6135]

Can't wait for the new video!!

[@art-alchemy]

Hi Emily, your review about the Mijello hybrid gouache is the best so far. They are a new gouache out in the market so not very many have them or have use them. I love all the things you have said about them so far which now I want to buy these paints, you should ask Mijello for a coupon code for the viewer's. I love your comparison to oil paint, since I am an oil painter but I do watercolor for fun expressive and acrylic for studies and more of experiments.

[@arcuda2001]

they seem really interesting .. it's a shame they aren't available in single tubes , as i'd love to try them for urban sketching .. I'm on total overload with my traditional gouache , and it would be absolutely insane for me to purchase an entire set of these.. Your portrait came out beautifully , Emily .. thanks for this review .. Norakag , here 😊😊

[@Arusei]

If you search for it they do have them in 15ml singles!

Shinhan pass is a watercolour gouache hybrid! I have not tried them but was thinking of getting a couple of tubes off jacksons ❤

[@emhuesart]

Ah very cool! I wonder how they compare to Mijello's hybrid. I really enjoy Shinhan's watercolors! 😄

Great Video Emily 👍👍👏👏. Just a bit of help with pronouncing Quinacridone : Quin-Ack-Rid-Doan ( Doan rhymes with Dome, just with an N rather than a M ) hope this helps, with gratitude from an old retired teacher 😉😁

[@unidentifiedentity5080]

I was away from the screen when you started the portrait and when I heard male portrait with purple tones I kinda assume you were painting the Josh Hutchinson meme lol.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing this❤

babe wake up new Emily video just dropped

[@emhuesart]

This made me chuckle! 💛

[@raquelsalerno5933]

I definitely think they are an interesting addition to an already fundamental watercolour collection, but I don’t think they could replace gouache completely.

[@emhuesart]

Agreed! 💛

[@melocotonki]

Such a beautiful painting!! I loved hearing your review and watching your process as always ✨ I have a question, does the paint lift easily once in the paper? I have a bit of trouble with that with some gouache paints. Also wanted to say I'm always in awe at your portraits and I learn so much whenever I watch your videos, I'm more used to working with transparency and watercolors and watching your opaque technique is SO useful 💖

[@emhuesart]

Thank you so much for all of your kind words! 💖 I didn't have ay issues with paint lifting, but I think if you used more water or did more "sweeping" motions with the brush, there would be a bit of lifting! I tried to use less water as the portrait progressed and I also tried to place the brushstrokes and then leave them be, rather than fussing with them too much. I hope that makes sense! 😅

[@jackielubeck]

They look great. Heavier than water colour and yet....

[@gillinacook1477]

My I ask what the drying shift of the colours where like to compare with traditional gouache please. Do the dark colours dry lighter and the light colours dry darker? I really liked your painting process and the finished painting looks wonderful. I might have to look into these as I live in the U.K. 😊

[@emhuesart]

Hi there! I found the drying shift to be very similar to traditional gouache, with the the shift being more noticeable with the lights than with the darks. 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@ivyclough8969]

So, is the difference that if you water them down more, they are still super pigmented and not as cloudy as gouache might get? I need an excuse to buy these

[@rebeccahesser8057]

They are really fantastic I bought them when they first came out and they are super pigmented , dry amazing in a palette, clear crisp colors that mix well. Not that I’m encouraging you to spend money but I like them better than any other gouache I have tried

[@ivyclough8969]

@@rebeccahesser8057 I don’t need too much of an excuse! Other than pallet drying why do you like them over other gouache?

[@rebeccahesser8057]

@@ivyclough8969 they are super pigmented, they rewet easily, they are lightfast which most gouache is not, they have beautiful flow if you want to use them on the runny end of things, they come from a very respectable brand and the price per tube when bought in the set is super reasonable compared to many other gouache brands. You can add white or black to adjust colors. You can buy a huge tube of the white class white and use it with these and it’s really inexpensive. They colors mix absolutely perfectly

[@emhuesart]

Yes! I find when you water them down they are super pigmented and vibrant like watercolors and not as cloudy as gouache. I wouldn't say they are a complete replacement for traditional gouache, but they are less fussy than gouache, and are easy to travel with and use on the go :)

[@fines_artchive]

I love your palette case that you use. Mind to share where can we buy that one? It wasn’t mentioned on your description 😢 thankies so much! ❤

The traditional gouache you keep in the airtight container, do you regularly rewet them or they really stay wet?
