🌿 mortar and pestle
⭐ Q&A LIST BELOW:
💧 More info on the pigments?
🌿 these pigments are an exclusive collaboration between Choosing Keeping and a lovely pigment store called Saiun-do in Japan. I've talked about these pigments more extensively in my other recent videos as well.
💧Gloves & Respirator?
🌿 YES. I should 100000% be wearing gloves and a mask. If I wasn't filming I would have. However, the last time I wore gloves in a paintmaking video, the sound of the gloves were unpleasant to listen to to many people. I decided for the sake of the video to omit them. However, yes. Gloves are very necessary especially if you are not working with pigments specifically made for Nihonga paintings.
💧 Why add honey?
🌿 this step is optional but i prefer to add it since it gives the paints a nice texture. it will also preserve moisture.
💧 Filming Equipment?
🌿 Camera: Sony A7rIV
Lens: Sony - FE 24-105mm F4 G
Mic: Sennheiser MKE 600
Tripod: Slik Pro 500 DX
💧 Why don't the pigments fit back in after crushing them?
🌿 (Someone more knowledgeable, please correct me if I'm wrong) I'm assuming it's because the pigments were much more compact before being crushed. In its "rock" form, the powder is super compressed and tight which allows it to fit into the vials.
💧 Why make handmade paints rather than buying ones at the store?
🌿 It's kind of like cooking your own food. There are delicious meals you can buy from restaurants but food made from home is a different kind of delicious.
Any other questions?
💧

[@FarlyCreates]

There is such artistry from the filming to the editing to the way you hang your swatches to the way you showcased different actions with the making of the watercolors to even the end swatches of which palettes you were making up. Everything from start to finish of what you do is like a performance piece built into a meditative experience. Well done! I’ll be revisiting this video time and time again when I need a break from the noise.

[@melissasaint3283]

For anyone watching this, be sure you read the description where she talks about the importance of wearing gloves and a respirator to do this. Not a paper surgical mask... ....a respirator. You should also do this away from where you eat or sleep, and away from upholstered furniture, with adequate ventilation. Some pigments are harmless, but others are very, very dangerous and can be poisonous, carcinogenic or harmful to your brain or nervous system. Even pigments that are pretty safe overall can be irritating to the lungs when ground up. Safety first!

[@glock4569]

Thanks!

[@riv3rw4ter]

do they become less harmful or harmless upon being mixed into the various liquids?

[@MeXoof]

@@riv3rw4ter I would think they become overwhelmingly less harmful when mixed with the liquid. A good example is at 1:38 when they pour the pigment into the container. You can see all the dust it creates. Without the respirator, you would breathe all that in very easily and cause major lung problems. All the different colors are created from different materials and people can even be allergic to a specific color dye because of the material. Once it becomes properly mixed in with a liquid, that harm goes away and any potential issues from flying dust are gone. This is also the same reason nail techs will wear masks while filing nails!

I can't imagine how long it must have taken to film and edit this video, great work!

[@melmoomlem7321]

I think the pigment crushing took two or three days, based on the lighting changes. And then multiple days for mulling the paints. So probably over a week for filming and then editing took who knows how long.

The tingliest “unintentional ASMR” video I’ve seen in a long while. Can’t imagine the patience and love for the craft it took to process all those tinctures.

[@earth-]

Idk if it’s ‘unintentional’ as it literally says ‘Art asmr’ but it sure is tingly lol

[@JackieBaisa]

Pretty sure it was intentional. It's just that it's also practical; she's making something versus destroying something, haha.

[@RangeGleasry]

@@JackieBaisaunintentional” is sometimes used to qualify ASMR content that produces ASMR in the viewer in an organic way, which is to say it’s the task first and the ASMR afterwards, regardless of the intention. This is in contrast to what many ASMR content creators usually do, which is to find a pretext to try and induce ASMR in the viewer - the task is secondary to the intention of producing ASMR in the viewer. Think bob ross vs gibi

[@trphoenix_.]

@@earth-some youtubers use very high quality microphones, use asmr toys and stuff. but this just shows the process of making something

Love the "crunchy" sound of the pigments in the mortar and pestle.....the colors are sooo beautiful.....I would make the worst artist, because I wouldn't be able to pick a color to start with let alone use any of them.....I would just stare at their beauty and not use them.....

im bringing back the fact that crushing the pigment sounds like chewing those little heart shaped candies you get on valentine's day

[@Kpracn0va]

There is always something so incredibly graceful about this video that is not only satisfying to hear but also to watch. I think that’s why it’s called ASMR (autonomous sensor meridian response), it’s meant to be great for multiple senses, not just hearing.
