My Favourite Watercolours ☄. *. ⋆ The 10 Runners Up!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

It was a hard task compiling a list of my Top 25 watercolours, and there were many I would have liked to include. Several subscribers asked for this video, so here are my ten runners-up! Enjoy over 30 minutes of super calm swatching. 🌈 All details are in the description box underneath the video.

[@julietoye9872]

Thank you for this, so therapeutic xxx

[@annawittekind4363]

My favorite watercolor is pretty much any brand of indigo. It just makes me happy when I use it. I think it's because it's so deep and vibrant at the same time. So beautiful. ☺️

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I totally agree!

[@PinkWytchBytch]

I have a funny problem with indigo: I’ve always thought indigo was supposed to be more purple than blue so every time I see indigo paint my brain goes “ no that’s Imposter-go not Indigo” even though I know good and well I’m the one that’s wrong 😂 quite literally I call blue based indigo Impostergo

[@melissacole8376]

Cascade green is one of my favorite watercolor paints. I kept convincing myself I didn’t need it because it wasn’t a practical green to keep on my palette. When I finally got it I found that it was one of those colors that inspired me to paint more. It’s so interesting and incredibly beautiful.

[@rootwoman123]

Daniel Smith "Aussie Gold"

[@Luc-uw8ur]

The Rembrandt Dusk Green is stunning!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I LOVE IT!

[@deedL3]

I love pretty much any shade of blue, but especially indigos and prussian blues. The color of denim is such a comforting color for me, warm, beautiful, and also has so much depth.

[@reflectionsabound789]

I’m completely in love with Sodalite and Lunar Blue-cannot decide which one draws me more. They are both such a pleasure to use. I’m happy to learn about Cascade Green becoming beautiful with more water. I was really put off by its tie-dye look initially too! Shire Yellow has now also caught my eye :)

[@notesinthemargin]

I’d love a set of postcards of your swatches, they’d also make excellent wrapping paper! 🙌 It’s quite hard to pick a favourite colour, but out of these; the Dusk Green particularly stands out. ✨🎨✨😘 xxx

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

This is such a great idea! Thanks darling. Also, how did I miss replying to this comment - it's over 2 months old?! 😘 xxx

[@jaynemartlew5762]

@@NatashaNewtonArt Did you make these and your other pebble swatches available as postcards.. Or laminated or unlaminated prints, or wrapping paper? If such a great idea 😁❤️

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

@@jaynemartlew5762 We haven't yet, Jane, but we love the idea! It's certainly a possibility.

[@stephanie_smith]

My favorite of all time is W&N's Aqua Green...its a favorite on my pallet. Thanks for another beautiful and relaxing swatch sesh.

[@bonnierosendale]

All these colors are so interesting and, as you say, "moody"! They are quite lovely! I think my favorite color that I would not want to do without is Daniel Smith's gold green. I do lots of botanicals and this is perfect as an under-wash that really brings green plants to life.

[@lawsbrettart]

Every time I watch one of you videos, my Jacksons basket gets filled just a little more, hehe. Such a relaxing video as always, Natasha.

[@vivvv2630]

Also just wanted to mention that Jane’s Grey is a mix of Ultramarine and Burnt Sienna, so most have those colors and can mix it at home to try! It is a mixture that Jane Blundell uses for shadows, and DS agreed to make tubes for her and for her ultimate mixing palette. We need to ask DS for a Natasha Newton palette! 😜

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks so much for posting this about Jane's Grey! And as for a Natasha Newton palette - wouldn't that be exciting?!

[@stephanie.kilgast]

My absolute favorite color is more a pigment I can't live without: PR122. It's an extremely vibrant pink that does the most crazy violets. I have it in all the media I use and I can't live without that one. Close second would be ultramarine blue PB29. Oh. And my favorite yellow is transparent yellow by Schmincke (PY150) as it goes from moody yellow to bright lemon yellow. Super versatile. It's the first yellow I ever liked. And lastly for granulation in watercolors, manganviolett PV16 from Schmincke does wonders in mixes. My current favorite would be with petal green for the most gorgeous dark granulating turquoise. I think you'd like that particular mixture.

[@laurar430]

One of my very favorites is Quinacridone Coral. Thank you so much for sharing your LOVELY swatching videos!

[@kreativeReise]

These Pebble Swatches are so beautiful...some of them look also like bird eggs. I think I will do this for my watercolors too. E.p for my granulating ones. Your videos give me so much inner silence...they calm me down after long days of work. The music, your voice and how you speak and seeing beautiful colors is the best combination ever.

[@jeanettegillings7202]

Oh no! My absolute favourite?!??! sooo hard... but I'd have to go with DS Mayan Blue Genuine... Love it!!! From your beautiful swatched sheet above... Cascade Green... a true winner!

[@stacys447]

Phthlao turquoise is my favorite and I might have to consider the dusk green for landscapes or try to make it. Thanks for the fun video.

[@deb.e.mixedmedia]

Daniel Smith Cascade green, so beautiful!

[@iadenicole931]

Thank you so much for doing this. The colours are beautiful. I especially like the Rembrandt green. I totally looking forward to your next video. This series is terrific👍🏻😊!

[@Horsewoman-pt2ku]

I love All colors so I can’t pick a fav. Just love working with watercolors!!

[@zSydir]

Oh my goodness, one paint color? I'll have to say Potter's Pink, specifically the Roman Szmal Potter's Pink. And out of the ten runners up... ah, this is hard too! I'll go with Misty Morning! Thanks for the wonderful video!

[@rhondahennessy76]

The Rembrandt dusk green swatch looks just like an emu egg. I now want all 25 on the list. I’m now sending a request to all of my children that they send $$ for all celebrations (Mother’s Day, birthdays, Xmas, Easter. Etc) or even non celebrations…any time really.

[@Zirnekljcilveeks]

My all time favorite - DS Lunar blue. From yours - Dusk green.

[@crystallp6274]

I really like Payne’s grey but the Dusk Green by Royal Talens Rembrandt takes my breath away! 😍

[@martehepburnart]

Quinacridone gold. Like that dusk green but they're all gorgeous and make a lovely palette.

[@MortuarySitiches]

I love shminke potters pink. Also looking with envy at your cascade green 😄✨🌸✨🌸

[@debsllewelyn230]

Thanks so much for making this video! Sadly, my most favourite watercolour ever is manganese blue, which isn't made any more. So uniquely beautiful, so granulating, so unavailable. I still have one tube and one pan left which I don't dare use now. My favourite from yours is the Royal Talens Dusk Green, wow! I'm glad you changed your mind about Cascade Green, I was one of those people who recommended you try it 🦄Love your videos🦄

[@sarahlouwolfe8302]

Cascade green. Second to Rembrandt Dusk Purple. It was a tough choice, but I usually find a way to use Cascade Green everytime I paint. I like using it to make my weird color potion recipes. My favorite from your swatches would have to be Dusk Green. As my Enabler in Chief 😄, Natasha, I must have it. I ordered Dusk Purple the day you released the video in which you swatched it. As always, a pleasure to watch.

[@suze7268]

Prussian Blue is one of my must-haves, and my favourite of these ten is the RS Misty Morning, closely followed by the W&N Aqua Green. Thanks for your wonderful channel Natasha 😊

[@sarabengtsson5353]

I have just ordered misty morning but I think my favourite here is dusk green. It really looks like a jewel swatched like this. My own all time favourite is impossible to say, it changes all the time. Right now I'm in love with tundra violet, because it behaves in so many ways depending on the amount of water added. Glad you found out that cascade green needs more water. I have been thinking sometimes watching you swatch, that you swatch too dark and the colours can't show their best sides.

[@maryannprzybycien2013]

The Daniel Smith Cascade Green is absolutely gorgeous! I need that in my pallet. ❤️😁

[@ChrissieNicely]

Hahaha! Natasha, after picking 25 favourites and 25 runners up - which are all gorgeous, by the way - you want me to name ONE colour, that would be my favourite? You are asking the impossible! My favourites vary depending on my mood and subject, and I think I'm not alone in this! 😉😁 Lovely swatching, once again. 😍🤩🥰 And I look forward to the art haul, of course! 😀

[@masja1790]

My absolute favorite that I cannot live without is DS Quinacridone gold / deep gold. It makes me so happy. In this video I can't decide between dusk green and mayan dark blue. They are all stunning.

[@loisbrennan3967]

I’m really looking forward to seeing your next art haul video. I love all the colours you choose usually , so I’m sure I’ll find lots of tempting new colours. On this swatch I particularly like the cascade green and i adore the tree you painted with it! My personal favourite (at the moment anyway) is Terre Vert ( Winsor & newton) it’s a very soothing colour!

[@missdeesaccount]

Oops! I like Dark Green which is surprising for me because I usually hate greens, but this one I love!

[@missdeesaccount]

@@jamesgrey4502 I'm doing well and you? It's so nice when someone comments! Everyone is so kind. This is such a sweet community of people. What kind of art do you do? I love all media, pastels, pen and ink, Watercolor, acrylic, coloured Pencils, etc...I love variety! I also have my own KZbin channel but my videos are different than Ms Newtons. I gear towards helping others through hard times, but I'm just beginning. Take care!

[@Winstonsmom]

One favorite? Can’t do it. I really love Winsor and Newton Indigo, and lavender is an excellent colour for mixing interesting greys. In looking at these swatches I’ve already added dusk green to my cart, and misty morning is literally on the way along with a number of other Roman Szmal colours, which I have yet to try. I notice how many granulating/separating colours are among your favorites. They are lovely. Trying to figure out how to make some of these combinations by mixing single pigments. It’s a lot of fun. Thanks for the videos. It’s great to be able to see these paints in action prior to investing.

[@sandjune2753]

Natasha I could not say on my favourite, as I have too many I cant do without. My favourite of all on this swatch is Morning Mist. So beautiful. Im just starting out again after years of not painting so I love your style of swatches. Its inspired me to do more. So many times I thought the paint was not good, but it was cheap paper and poor brushes. Thank you for the info on your brushes and paper you use, this is helpful.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm so glad that you've found the videos useful, thank you for watching! Paper makes a huge difference to how watercolours look and perform.

[@Vanitasmortedigital]

I loved both these videos, so lovely to hear your obvious love for these colours and your thoughtful insights into why you chose them and how you use them in your work. I love the pebble swatches,they really show the properties of the colours so well. I love the Betty Hayway brushes too,they are a staple for me too now. I love that you got the surpise of these colours becoming a possible new palette as well. My favourite colour of all time is Naples yellow, it's wonderful mixing colour and has a warmth of tone to it, but it can also cool down other colours and produces great mxes with greens. From these ten I have to say the Cascade green is a stunning colour,can so see why you love it now, The painting of the tree you painted shows this colour so beautifully. You really do have such a gift for choosing colours and creating palettes with them.As you talk about how you use these colours we can picture them in your work. Those little round ceramic palettes are also such a great addition I have several sets of these now,I love that they stack too. (matt)

[@jenniek4617]

Lovely video. I really like the Jaynes grey. So hard to choose though!

[@areesha22]

Oh one color…bah! Impossible! Maybe dusk yellow! Or rose of ultramarine :)

[@angelawatson7294]

I think my favorite ever is Quinacridone Deep Gold it is so so gorgeous. Royal Talens Rembrandt Dusk Green is my favorite on that swatch sheet. Thanks for the tip on Cascade Green. I am only 6 months in to my journey but I am enjoying every image.

[@conniescanlon8760]

Thank you Natasha for another mesmerizing video! My favorite from this swatch is Royal Talens Dusk Green. The separation is amazing.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Connie!

[@THEMAYQUEEN1]

Oh wow geeeee if I had to pick a colour I can’t live without, that would be indanthrone blue. Roman szmal misty morning is my favourite here.

[@veeroach]

My favorite color right now is AGallo olive green deep. It separates the yellow is non granulating and it has ultramarine that granulates. It’s beautiful. My favorite in this collection is Misty Morning. Roman Szmal is my favorite brand and I couldn’t live without Misty Morning either.

[@michellemould2334]

Misty morning is my favourite from the 10. My can't live without watercolour is Daniel Smith Aussie red gold

[@patrickhawkins5566]

Happy weekend Michelle

[@crealynn5302]

Favorite swatch… Royal Talen DUSK GREEN. My favorite watercolor (have so many)…. Daniel Smith UNDERSEA GREEN (you may love this one Natasha).

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

It's in the upcoming art haul!!! I'm excited to try it for the first time. :)

[@estherreeves6445]

Only just getting into lovely watercolours like this rather than basic flatter coloured ones so don't have a favorite yet apart from anything that granulates. Of these I love them all but if i had to pick it would be cascade green or dusk green depending on my mood at the time. Cascade green reminds me of patina and dusk green is just so dramatic.

[@beadsbylara]

So glad to see WN Aqua Green included. It is one of my favorite colors, but I don't see it talked about often. I LOVE the Mayan Dark Blue, but wish it was more light fast. Such an amazing color.

[@angelahunnel9425]

I'm very new to painting and haven't yet bought too many watercolors! But, my favorite from this switching session is the Dusk Green. So beautiful! ❤️. I could buy them all and be happy!

[@ntaylo6299]

DS Aussie Red Gold just glows. The Quinacridones are all lovely. But two favorites are primates are Black Tourmaline and Burnt Bronzite.

[@lizhart81]

I really can't decide between Misty Morning and Dusk Green. They're both gorgeous in different ways, and both are from brands I haven't tried before; though I really want to, now! My favourite colour to use changes so much, though there are a few colours (Prussian Blue, Green Gold and Potter's Pink) that I regularly come back to, and like to "audition" in different formulations to compare brands. That said, I'm very into Winsor and Newton New Gamboge at the moment - not a colour I've used much before, but I'm grabbing it a lot lately. These are by no means exciting, but as I tend to use at least some Winsor and Newton Neutral Tint, any brand's Red Oxide and any Burnt Umber in everything, they are my most-used paints.

[@julietoye9872]

Favourite watercolour?!? So difficult! If I had to choose one, it would have to be Daniel Smith bloodstone genuine. My favourite swatch you've done here had to be the dusk green, it's beautiful, and I also have it 😊💖🤗

[@tracyvis2101]

Potters Pink is my all-time favorite and from this group I like the Dusk Green the best ❤

[@christineosmond9024]

I don't have a personal favorite watercolor. I think the Roman Szmal colors are incredible. I prefer cool colors, so the last 7 swatches were gorgeous.

[@diannaa5631]

You've got my interest.im now thinking of making a pallet of just some of these colors.ive not been a fan of granulation in the past...at all lol

[@cristinalattuada5322]

Cobalt teal, Daniel Smith. I love the effects of the RoyL Talens Rembrandt, Dusk Green. Thank you.

[@lulabelle33]

I love all of these. I think off the top I am attracted to the white yellow... mostly becoming have the haze set plus sea green and I would like a yellow granulating plus a rusty one. I absolutely adore all of these choices

[@miriamgillham6701]

I particularly like the Royal Talents Rembrandt Dark Green and the Daniel Smith Cascade Green that you swatched out. They are stunning greens. I have a colour I mix often from various water colour sets and that is my version of Indigo Blue. I absolutely love this colour and equal to it is another colour, a red, I tend to mix myself that has the intensity of deepest lipstick red. I have yet to find the particular depth of these colours without mixing them myself.

[@missdeesaccount]

Hello Natasha! I see that you're doing one of your favourite things--swatching! You keep us enthralled and hanging on every word! I always stay right to the end of your enjoyable videos, and I guess the single watercolour colour I could not live without is Violet Brown. I saw you swatch it last year and ever since then I can't get enough! I'm a red, orange, purple kind of girl and that makes up my palette. I love it when the sun is a burnt orange and red sky in the summer nights here where I live. I just can't get enough of those colours! Unfortunately I can no longer see firsthand the beauty of nature because I'm bedbound but I transitioned to it very well as getting out was never my favourite thing to do. So now I spend my time watching KZbin videos and studying art history on my own. I have a passion for art and poetry, as I write some myself. Well, I guess that's all for now. Be well and take care until next time we have a nice relaxing chat and swatch!

[@janiceccollins2351]

I’ve started swatching this way. I love it so much better. Feels so natural and intuitive. Thank you for this tip. :)

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm so glad that you love it too!

[@paintingtheskykingdom9005]

Lavender. It is so use ful, although I have begun not to use it quite as much. I also love Sennelier Cereleun blue because it is impossible to mess up a sky if you use it. Of the ones you swatched - maybe cascade green. I have it and did not realize it was so granulating so look forward to using it more.. Oh, and while I don't have a lot of the Schmincke super granulating colors, of the set I have, I absolutely love Glacier green. A watercolor that paints itself. I want the roman szmal misty morning that you show above.

[@JessicaCEP]

I just got that aqua blue from the 2017 Windsor and newton collection…I love watching to see what watercolor will do, I agree, it’s like magic. I’m a sucker for any cobalt teal, sleeping beauty turquoise type color, but my paint water usually runs green-blue…I just bought a new tube of undersea green yesterday!

[@debbrantstevens8826]

Try Winsor and Newton Opera Rose with your Aqua Green! I use Aqua Green as a blue in mass tone, then allow it to bleed into another area, and you get a fab phthalo blue that is almost pure blue, separating the blue and green pigments! I love them!

[@watrgrl2]

For me, Sap green is my all time favorite color. I love most of the colors of nature, rocks and minerals but Sap green always grabs my attention on the canvas and in nature. I have to say, your pebble swatches are magical. Some of them look like actual photographs of beach pebbles!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you! Sap Green is indeed a lovely colour. :)

[@michemman]

An absolute favourite, is Serpentine Green, a Primatek by Daniel Smith. It is warm, glowy, olive, yellow muted green and separates slightly with burnt orange flecks. On your sheet, Natasha, I love Misty Morning. Just a hint with Jane's grey; When working with Jane on a course in the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney, we made a very light wash of Janes grey over one side of a stone building for the shadow, just a glaze over the building in Goethite. Goethite and buff titanium are great mixed to make sandstone rock buildings, and then the blue grey glaze made it really sing. It is liftable, as are the other three pigments. Misty Morning is also very nice washed with a real lot of water, for a sky that is overcast, about to rain. In kindred spirit, Eliza Dulwich Hill Australia xx bed office 3:26pm Tues 15th of March 2022

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Great tips, thank you Eliza!

[@sonyaoart]

If I go by most used, my favourite would be ultramarine blue. On its own and mixed with burnt sienna, delicious:D. I think my favourite runner up is the DS buff titanium, even though every single one of them is gorgeous Love these swatching sessions!

[@malavika88]

Sennelier Payne's grey!!! It was in my first ever watercolour set and swatching it really flipped a switch in me... So very special...

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I haven't tried that version yet! :)

[@KizetteandTotoro]

OMG Natasha! The video proper hasn’t even started and I had to press the Like button. What a fabulous idea for a video.

One of my current favourites is Daniel Smith Cobalt Teal, and another favourite is also in this video, Roman Smal Misty Morning. Recently have tried 2 Mijello Mission Gold - Permanent Yellow and Manganese Blue and quite like them!!

[@Shellyj107]

I learned about Roman Smazl from one of your other videos and I just received my order including Shadow Violet. I'm excited to start playing with this color. Thank you for swatch videos, I really enjoy watching.

That Dusk Green is my favourite here but the one I can't do without from my collection? Probably DS Green Apatite Genuine

[@Joan4me]

After watching this video I cannot can only say that I know I will have more favorites than my current Green Appetite. Thank you, I love your choices, your commentary, and the way you present. Dusk Green is my favorite from this pallet, Shire Yellow a close second.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you, Joan! That's lovely to hear. :)

[@MirandaWatsonArt]

There's no way I could pick my absolute favorite watercolor today. I still have so many to try and I need to paint with all the ones I already have WAY more! But my favorite out of what you swatched today would be the Rembrandt Dusk Green. So pretty!

[@carolineashley839]

My favorite colour at the moment is by the Stoneground Paint co. - Mayan Deep Green and my favorite from your selection is WN Aqua Green.

[@FelineFurKin]

Ooh, I’m very glad to find you. I haven’t found a new watercolourist in a while and I love seeing which paints other artists love. My favourite of this 10 is misty morning and my overall favourite, oof, shadow violet by Roman Szmal but also manganese blue by Josie Lewis, which I think is very similar to Daniel Smith’s. On full pans taking up more space in your palette - two palettes? I love Jackson’s cheaper metal tins and it turns out two fit perfectly side by side on the wooden lap tray we found in the garage (back problem makes the sofa more comfy). Anyway, I’m intrigued to see all of those and go watch the 25 top paints video too. On first glance at that page, I had to wonder how you get a full of light, bright colours from them, but I see you paint a lot of darker scenes. It’s handy to find someone English with favourites by brands I’d buy. I haven’t tried Daniel Smith yet due to the price and I’m not a pro, at least yet, but a lot of the others are more accessible.

[@kriksis]

I stayed till the end, but I can't answer to the favourite watercolour question as I haven't intensively used them for a long time to pick absolute favourite, but I like shire yellow from these runner ups the best. :) I like all of these colours! (especially first row!) I think they are making lovely colour palette. You should try to do limited colour palette artwork using these runner ups. :) All the best to you Natasha!

[@KoolKookyKreatures]

My favourite from your swatches is the Rembrandt Dusk Green. My all time one favourite is Moonglow by Daniel Smith :)

[@KoolKookyKreatures]

@@jamesgrey4502 all good here thanks - I’m UK based

[@susanwildt6535]

How can I choose my favorite all time color among so many beautiful children!? Lol. I think your runner up palette is just as lovely as your favorites. Rembrandt dusk green is gorgeous!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm in love with this runner-up palette!

[@jaimeo2312]

I love your pebble swatches so much! Think my favourite there is the Mayan Dark Blue. So beautiful! My all time favourite watercolour is a handmade one by Julia Källen (Julia K Art Studio) and it's called 'Disa'. A gorgeous blue-green-grey that for some reason I absolutely love. I can't really even say why. I just love it. 🤷

[@MariaDemeyer-Syrenia]

My very most favorite color is indigo! In the palette: mayan dark blue ! You´re getting me tempted by Roman Smalz 🤔

[@artbylari388]

Oh thats a toughy question! If i had to pick Potters pink by Schmincke or winsor and newton. I am always drawn to that colour. My favourites from your swatch in this video are: Forest green, Dusk green and Jayne's grey, when you had those three in together I was blown away. Simply beautiful colours ans another lovely video. Much love to you Mamma Newt

[@sonja__k]

Aww, Natasha, so glad to see you swatching your runners up. You've really made those 10 colors shine. I'm sure they are no longer be sad that they didn't make the cut in the first place. ;o) My favourite colors from your runners up selection definitely is Misty Morning. I absolutely love the touch of blush shining through the ash blue base. To specify one most favorite watercolor of mine is hard though. I love color so much that I could never favour one over the other. They all serve a purpose, don't they? That being said, I recently bought Schmincke's new Vulcano Red and am totally blown away by the way it granulates, absolutely exceptional for a warm red color. Also, I love "Nelkenfarbe" (sorry, I don't know it's English name) by Kremer. It's made from the same pigment as Potter's Pink (PR 233) but it's non-granulating. A slightly powdery, muted Victorian pink, I'd say. I'm sure you would like it as well.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Ha ha, let's hope they're happy! ;) Misty Morning is very special, isn't it? I'm really impressed with the Roman Szmal colours in general! I keep hearing good things about Volcano Red (several subscribers have mentioned how much they like it recently) and the Kremer colour you've mentioned sounds beautiful! Just the type of pink I love.

[@PumpkinBecki]

Ooooh Natasha, the "Dusk Green" is delicious!! Daniel Smith Quinacridone Rose is my must-have colour, it's my "primary red". Daniel Smith "Red Aussie Gold" is my "I don't know where to use it but I need it in my life" colour. And though I'm drawn to purples and berry colours...I think Daniel Smith Phthalo Turquoise is possibly my all time favourite colour...with the Schmincke Horadam Haze colours coming in really close behind...oh and I've placed an order with KWARTS on Etsy which should arrive soon and I can't wait to try them out... Now I see why you struggled to narrow your choice down :D xx

[@emmalicia.artist]

I’m more of mixing my colors but Misty Morning is stunning!

[@hildybean]

I have the Royal Talens Rembrandt Granulating set of 12 and Dusk Green is my favorite in that set. Otherwise I have two favorites, Schmincke Ocean Grey and DaVinci’s Mother Violet ❤️

[@luneleaart]

Can’t decide on one favourite but current most used is DS hematite and from this selection I also love buff titanium, which is surprising to me as I love bright colours but favourites are not always the colours you use most often. Would I love to try aqua green and misty morning looks like a blue chalcedony stone, so gorgeous. I remember the video where you swatched cascade green and called it a 90s raver😆

[@nathalieheath5693]

Roman Szmal Przysbysz Grey is my one favorite color! It is just absolutely stunning and very useful ❤️

[@gLaw8]

I really love Sennelier Greenish Umber…you might like it as well, actually. Love your channel so much! Have been gobbling up your videos to cheer myself up since early 2021, so big thanks and blessings to you!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Ah, thanks Glory! That's lovely. Thank you so much for watching. :) And I LOVE the Greenish Umber - it was in my Top 25 Favourite Watercolours ever (the video before this one).

[@robertweinblatt2018]

LOVE CASCADE GREEN❤️‍🔥

[@rhondahennessy76]

Green is my favourite colour but Roman Szmal Misty morning would be #1. I love the separation of colours.

[@juliettepearce1376]

Natasha, my favourite watercolour of all time has to be misty morning by Roman Szmal, or the Indigo by Lukas that has really lovely separation of a red pigment that I love. Out of these, I really love the dusk green or the deep sea black!

[@reflectionsabound789]

Omg now I have another color to add to my exploding cart 🙈 the Lukas Indigo sounds stunning!

[@VitasArtworks]

i also really love watercolors and swatching and mixing ^_^

[@eysgri]

My QOR quinacridone violet. It just vibrates so beautifully and with the synthetic oxgall that QOR uses, it just explodes into my other paints. I am also a huge fan of cascade green.

[@elise2182]

White Nights Payne's Grey! Inky and every so slightly blue. From the paints you swatched for us, I am intrigued by Dusk Green, and I'm inspired to use my Qor Green Gold more.

[@julienotsmith7068]

I love how both these spreads make a perfect palette for a landscape. It’s very you. I’m impressed, you’ve made me… not hate… grey. (My favorite colors are pink and orange, come on!)
