How to Paint Dreamy Watercolor Roses and Leaves PLUS Unboxing the Kuretake Art Nouveau set

[@kathyedmondson9183]

You are so right you can never paint enough flowers! The earth laughs in flowers!🌼💐🌹🥀🌺🌷🏵️🌻💕

[@amandaterrio4823]

Thank you for mentioning hour long you have been painting roses. I was watching and thinking about how effortless you made it look. I am always so critical of myself. I just started using watercolor less than a year ago. I blame my parents for always wanting perfect children and frequently reminding us that we were not as good as … well anyone

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

I try to remind myself always that there is more beauty in imperfection than in so-called perfection. I love the freedom of watercolor when its allowed to flow how it wants. Not beautiful in my eyes when it is tightly restricted into the idea of the painter.

[@JsbB-q6p]

I'm 78 and have only been painting for 2-3 years. I often get discouraged with my perceived lack of progress, but when I do get that way I go to a Diane Anton video to get some inspiration and encouragement. Thank you so much for making these for us. 😍

[@tracylamarca575]

The colors are lovely - your painting is lovely, Diane! I can add it to my cart on Amazon, but delivery is given as March 30 - April 19, so I checked ebay as I always do and just snagged a brand new set for only $2 more ($38.99 instead of Amazon's $36.99). It will be shipped First Class for free - I am so excited - I should have it in less than a week! 😍 (Are you thinking of Annie Lennox??!!)

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Oh well done Tracy, good job! Yes, Annie Lennox is the one!

[@carolyndaughton3373]

Diane, it's so wonderful seeing absolutely beautiful YOU in your art studio. Thank you for sharing the new set of paints you received. All of my greatest artist tips, I have received from you. I love these Kuretake paints, and yes, they are life shattering! Although it's sometimes nice to stuff mushrooms, it's really nice to have the option for ready made :) Your painting is lovely. Lottie is beautiful and you can feel her spirit. My take on her gazing at your through the glass door...she doesn't care how sunny and warm the day may be, there is absolutely no better way than to spend the day sitting beside you!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

You are certainly right about Lottie, she is a mummy’s girl and I love her to bits. Thanks for all your lovely comments, I truly appreciate every word you type and have typed since we started. See how close we are to 100K subs? Thanks to you, Carolyn! XxxX

[@kathysunshine699]

Sometimes it comes up as “ muted colors” Karetaki watercolor Sets.. online and and you tube. (It is the same set) Also if you live in the U.S. google St.Louis Art supply and They have it NOW🎉 …..And “Blick”said they will be coming to their online store.(unless their provider Is sold out or back ordered March 20th… Good luck!👍🤓 Edited to add cost at At St. Louis 36.00 dollars and some change maybe but with Shipping it is 45.54 dollars (give or take a few cents). It is only 28.00 dollars from Blick but 9.99 for all orders under 50 or 59 dollars shipping,if they do get them

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thanks so much Kathy for that helpful input. It’s strange that they have become so hard to get a hold of. But that’s really good to know about St Louis and Blick.

[@Do-U-Know-me00]

Construction parer in the US, is very rough and you can feel the fibers in it. So, I doubt it is anything like what you are using. Putting water on construction paper would make a soggy mess. It is the cheapest stuff around. Maybe not in price, but definitely in quality...that's why the schools buy it. Only the cheapest stuff for the kids will do.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Yes, I get that. But I think the stuff called “Sulphite Paper” is different from construction paper in the US. It was recommended to me by another US artist who loves to paint on it. I’m going to buy a ream and have it shipped from the States just to make sure I’m right about this!

[@vivienneadamson2307]

Hi Diane you are a woman after my own heart I ordered these three days ago and waiting on them arriving from Amazon. I love the Kuretake paints as their colours are so vibrant and when this new set came out I loved the colour palette so decided on an early birthday present despite my birthday not being until May. Awh well it’s International women’s day today so I’m being strong, determined and I’m getting them. Happy International Women’s day to all us women. Xx

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Absolutely Vivienne! If not now, then when!!! I always say, I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I just buy paints!

[@ankevonjanuszkiewicz8458]

Obilix and Asterix and question: why did you not wet the paints, before you started please?

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

They don’t need to be pre wetted

[@tracylamarca575]

HAHAHA! After I searched for the paint and restarted the video, I heard that you came up with Annie Lennox's name! I love her voice, by the way! Also, by the way, both Amazon and the ebay seller both show a swatch card with names for the colors! Some are "normal" like alizarin crimson and potter's pink, but some are more "inventive," like saffron yellow and billiard green! I do have a question, Diane - I have some Canson XL watercolor paper that is 300 gram, 140 lb. - what would be the difference between this and the mixed media paper in the sketchbook? I must admit - I don't like the Canson I have and use it for testing colors or practicing strokes - I do love my Arches!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Hi Tracy, the difference is the amount of sizing I believe. The mixed media paper is strongly sized, so it supports a lot of abuse. I find it takes the watercolor very well. I don’t know which Canson you already have - they make so many different things - but their whole XL range is intended for students and includes sketch, drawing, watercolor and mixed media paper. Arches is too expensive (it’s made by Canson btw!) for everyday use. I’m moving away from expensive paper for my everyday painting. I can’t see any deterioration in my work because what I do is so quick and undemanding on the paper. I used to use Arches when I was doing larger, more complicated landscapes and florals. For hobby painting Canson (or Strathmore or any other inexpensive w/c paper) is going to be good enough for a lot of people. Especially in these belt-tightening days…

[@tracylamarca575]

@@DianeAntoneStudio thank you for the information! I will check out the Canson paper you have (mine does NOT take abuse!), but when I first started painting last year, I tried several different papers and really loved the Arches. I started looking for "deals," like I always do because yes, it is way expensive at regular price. I lucked upon 2 sales online from Michael's last March and June - buy one/get one free. In March, my price per pad ended up being $14 and in June, the price per pad was $16.50. I work small - I cut each piece into 4 pieces and when I don't like what I've painted, I use the back! I still have 5 unopened pads! Michael's also has a rewards program, so when I make purchases, I eventually earn $5 vouchers (I buy a lot of yarn from them as well!). Anyway, your work speaks volumes for using less expensive paper, for sure!!🥰

I just treated myself to the limited edition 100 color set (from Amazon). I LOVE these paints. So creamy. And, not only are the pans numbered, but the palette is numbered so you always know where to put them back. The limited edition is packaged in an exquisite, Asian-style, 4-tiered wooden case. In the US here. Can’t wait to start using them. Thank you for sharing your art. Note: Names are in English as well as Japanese.

[@lorrihonstein7251]

Is there information on the lightfastness of these paints? Thanks in advance.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Kuretake just say that they are lightfast. I haven’t found any detailed information but for my everyday purposes they are good enough. For heirloom work I would use traditional paints.

It seems like Michael's stores carries the Canson type papers here in the US.

By the way, in my set, they have a smallish swatch card on the underside of the box cover, with the color names shown and space for a small swatch. I can't wait to play with my new paint set on Boxing Day. We don't have Boxing Day in the U.S., but I celebrate it, notwithstanding ;) Happy Holidays and a wonderful New Year! Carol in Boston PS - I gave up stuffing mushrooms years ago! They taste just as good if you halve them, put them in a baking dish, and bake them until the stuffing starts to brown and crisp. Also, I was a big Eurythmics fan, too. I saw her on TV recently, and she looks great!

If we go directly from your videos to Amazon and buy our miscellaneous stuff will you get credit for it even though it’s not painting stuff?

[@elaineg60]

You're just trying to tempt us to buy more paint 😂 My iPad is dying & I'm TRYING to put off getting it fixed as long as possible bc I already spent way too much on Rosa's single pigments, a few more DS PRIMATEK mineral paints and about 6pans of handmade single pigments a friend made without clove oil or honey for me to test oh.. And did I tell you about my new "swatch book" discovery? I got them yesterday! It has 18 4x6in pages (maybe a bit smaller) Baohong artist grade, 6 CP, BP & ROUGH, in booklet form! I'm going to put 2 together & make a cover. I also got 6 separate large sheets of HP to cut up and add, specifically for my Chinese chip paints & ink sticks. Xuan paper is a pain to try and do booklet form bc we have to keep felt under the page until it dried. I have some accordion books of semi-sized, but it's just too much of a hassle. These art nouveau ARE on my list though! They are beautiful!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

You’re right, I’m the temptress of the watercolor world! Sorry to hear about your iPad. I went through that a few years ago and eventually got a new one. Horribly expensive. I think these paints are very good value for money especially if you don’t like color mixing or for beginners. You might be beyond them!!!

[@barbarabrady1267]

This sketchbook is available in the US, it just has a different cover and is 8.5x5.5 instead of A5, it’s $6.95 at blick now. The paint is $28 on blick and the website said it will be in stock March 20th. I checked the store not far from me any they only have the regular sets in stock

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Be careful about the book, Canson have other cheaper grades of sketchbook which are not at all the same paper. Still good, but not the same. The Mixed Media XL book I am talking about is very tough paper which stands up to abuse!

[@CastleMc]

I like this set but to claim they are more vibrant than W/N is just wrong. Most of the Art Noveau paints are tints which means they are already mixed with white.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

They show up in photos more brightly than regular watercolor because they aren’t as transparent as regular watercolors. I don’t remember exactly what I said on this video but I have said that they are brighter optically and that is helpful for digital reproduction.
