This is so great! Thank you for this video. Is there a followup about the colourchance?

[@mariannevandenheuvel-artist]

Is there a reason why you just use gum arabic? I am looking into making my own watercolors and saw some recipes with use of honey and/or glycerine to it.

[@rotay701]

Can the pigments be reactive with water when in the tin? If not, how long do you have until they dry out?

[@ageloe]

I’m excited that you are doing a lightfast test! I would love an update on how they change over time and exposure. I love watercolors and it would be cool to try this If they don’t fade too much. Thanks for the video!

[@michaelaschmid]

Will do!! I'll post updates in the community tab. I'm thinking 3 months, 6 months and 1 year (if I remember) :D

[@michaelaschmid]

Ooooh that would be so fun to make lip tint (might even taste good :D)

Two things. 1) Would you consider doing a video on your top cooking/preserving books? 2) I love your videos!

[@michaelaschmid]

Yes! Thank you! That's a neat idea :)

This was so relaxing to watch! And your color swatch sheet was beautiful! Would love to try this one day.

[@michaelaschmid]

I hope you try it some time! It’s so fun and relaxing:)

[@rotay701]

Omg I’ve been waiting for a video like this all my life. Thank you so much for sharing this process, I’m so excited to try it out!!

[@michaelaschmid]

I hope it goes well! To your other question: the Color’s do not rewet well (the blueberry does somewhat but raspberry and strawberry barely) I covered the paints with plastic wrap to keep them wet and used them up over the course of a few days. It’s definitely best to make what you need each time :)
