My Favourite Winsor & Newton Watercolours

[@coloredcarol8074]

Hi guys! Today I'm bringing you a new instalment for my Favourites series, this time featuring Winsor & Newton! This is a solid and well known brand, and I thought it was about time I shared my favourites from their catalogue with you. What do you think of my selection? Let me know in the comments!

Those are some really beautiful colors. Thanks for sharing 🥰 I a sucker for potters pink and that one definitely is beautiful

[@coloredcarol8074]

You’re welcome ☺️

Beautiful selections!

[@coloredcarol8074]

Thank you! 😊

I really love the Transparent Orange - it*s so gorgeous! 🎨

[@coloredcarol8074]

It really is! And apparently unique formulation by W&N

[@debbrantstevens8826]

Love your choices! I agree and have most of your selection for the same reasons!

[@coloredcarol8074]

Thanks for watching!

I like the greys at the end.. Have you smashed all your big winsor and newton palette?

[@coloredcarol8074]

Smashed? I don’t think so 🤔

[@debbrantstevens8826]

@coloredcarol8074 have you swashed your whole W&N palette? I hate predictive text. Just had to change smashed again!

[@coloredcarol8074]

Ah! Got it 🤭 I may have… I need to check. I’ll post it in my blog if so and let you know here 😉

For Smalt Blue alternatives, try the van Gogh Ultramarine Deep (PB29) or MaimeriBlu’s Ultramarine Blue PV15 (which is a typo; the Italian name is Ultramarine Violet Blue). Both are more violet than your normal PB29, but not quiet as violet as ultramarine violet PV15. I’m not sure whether Rembrandt has an Ultramarine Deep.

Thanks for the recommendations! I’m definitely going to check these out (even though Smalt Blue will be always a favourite 💙)

[@awatercolourist]

@@coloredcarol8074 Welcome! And I understand. W&N’s Smalt is on my wishlist.

[@coloredcarol8074]

@@awatercolourist I hope you get to try it, it’s a beautiful colour 😍

[@debbrantstevens8826]

Can you please share a swatch of all your winsor and newton colours in your expanded 24 pan palette?

[@coloredcarol8074]

Hi Debbra! Are you on instagram? If so, send me a DM and I’ll send a photo of my palette swatch card

[@SuzyMoon864]

I hate it that they don’t disclose some of the pigments. Thanks for the video.

[@coloredcarol8074]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@awatercolourist]

I agree with you, Suzy. If the pigments are not listed in the Colour Index then they should clarify that. I appreciate, though, that they mentioned the chemical family for Aqua Green and Transparent Orange.
