NEUTRAL TINT - Schmincke Horadam | The Paint Show 18

[@sharonthibodeau4652]

Love the Paint Show. It is my favorite. I think showing the paint with a painting demo is really important. That shows the way the paint works and how it looks in real use. Thanks for another cool paint review.

[@LironYan]

Agreed, thank you so much (: I'll try to always incorporate at least a small demo.

[@evolvvartstudio]

This is my absolute favorite neutral tint, and I use it all the time. There’s something about its warm violet undertone that I really like.

[@vani519]

You can try what is my favorite. A little hint of phaelo turquoise and a “lot” of neutral tint. It makes a great shadow for ocean water.

[@evelyne7071]

The neutral tint over yellow reminds me of far-away buildings. It would make good shadows too. Thanks, Leron.

[@marjoriejohnson6535]

I like this coverage of information for each paint. Through! Thank you for an in-depth look at just one paint.

[@jengoodwyn2715]

I really like the painting because it allows me to see the color in use. I don't think I have enough experience to know what to do with it otherwise. Thank you.

[@LironYan]

So happy to hear! It's been a while since I fully demoed a paint like that. I'll try and do it soon again (:

[@diannekrogers]

Love your little crow! I think this gave me a better feel for what this paint can do. I also liked it glazed over the lower left (magenta?) color. Thanks, Liron! Your talent and knowledge is growing by leaps and bounds, and your willingness to share it with the rest of us is a joy to behold!

[@LironYan]

Thank you ☺️ I'll keep the current format with a little painting demo. Having fun!

[@dianaauerhammer5681]

Really enjoyed this Crow episode!! Since I don't have any neutral tint I used Paynes Grey with good results. I need to loosen up with my painting so your style reeeaaaal;y works for me to learn that!! Nice work Liron Yanconsky! And. Thank you!!

[@soliferi]

I was tempted to get this one but i'm trying to keep a minimal set in the little whiskey flask... when I get back to it.

[@LironYan]

That's an awesome idea (: I would not include this one in a minimal set.

[@mrspock2al]

Good video Liron. I've been curious about neutral tint but have never taken the plunge to purchase. Like you mentioned, mixing complements seems to give the results that I want. Please continue with the "paint show".

[@LironYan]

As long as there are unexplored paints, I'll keep going (; Thank you!

[@kellywilson2147]

I like the sketch as well as swatches and geek stats. Keep up the good work!

[@LironYan]

Happy to hear this works (: Thank you! I'll keep this format for now.

[@yarden2611]

Thank you! I love the paint show(: always avoided neutral tint thinking it will be dead boring black, but your crow turned out beautiful I'll give this color a shot(:

[@LironYan]

So happy to hear, thank you 😊 I will probably use it for monochromatic paintings.

[@marysu4]

I really prefer the Daniel Smith Neutral tint because it is not reddish. On the brochure page the bottom entry is one of my favorite Schmincke colors, Payne's Grey Bluish which is a wonderful broody dark! (When I ordered it they didn't have a half pan so I got the full pan thinking, "I'll never live long enough to use all this paint!" Once I actually saw it in action my mind was changed!)

[@LironYan]

Haha I’m happy you found a use for it (: I had a similar experience with Phthalo Green. I thought I’d never use it. But now that I found a combo it works well with, I’ll probably run out of it soon 😉

[@sarahconroy3634]

I like the idea of adding a drawing to the swatch painting. Mary from Toronto

[@LironYan]

Yes, I try to do that whenever I get a good idea for a painting that can really show the color in its full power 😁 Thank you 🙏🏼

[@annabellereid4088]

love your paint show, I hope you keep it going

[@LironYan]

I think as long as there are paints, I'll keep going (;

[@FlidaisPeridotEyes]

Daniel Smith and Winsor & Newton use Pthalo Blue, Quinacridone Violet and Lamp Black. Daniel Smiths is semi-transparent while W&N is opaque. I have both but I use DS more.

[@LironYan]

Interesting, I had no idea that's the "standard" combo for neutral tint. I was sure Schmincke are simply using a strange mix (:

[@lockeyarts]

Thanks for the suggestions! I got this color as part of a set and was wondering what to do with it. At first glance it seemed a little too warm to me too. I personally prefer to mix my own neutrals and wouldn't have bought this paint just by itself. There's also almost always something on the mixing areas of my palette I can quickly turn into a neutral.

[@LironYan]

I do the same :D I just pick up whatever's left and use that. Unless I'm trying to keep the color scheme of the painting really clean and even.

[@simondoyle5173]

Thank you, that was really interesting!

[@Amber-bx4tj]

An interesting mixture. Usually I make a neutral mixture with my primary colors, so I know their pigments will not conflict with the pigments of other colors (I tend to use 4 or 5 colors for my paintings), I don't think I would ever buy an neutral tint, but it was nice to see how it work with greens.

[@LironYan]

That's exactly my approach (: I much prefer using the primaries and that way I know the colors will be harmonious. This was a nice experiment though, and it will be good perhaps for monochromatic paintings.

[@FuriedHearts]

Contamination doesn’t matter overall when painting but you would think when doing color studies (when you were testing the darkening of the greens) that you would want to start with a clean palette. It irks my OCD so much 😂😂 Working on top of all of that dried paint is going to change the mix completely. No offense. I love your painting style and loose approach.

[@engleharddinglefester4285]

That helps tremendously!

[@LironYan]

Thank you ^_^ So happy to hear

[@emmamariamakes]

I have been using the Rembrandt version of Paynes Grey for this kind of purpose, would you recommend neutral tint instead?

[@MsChareng]

I really enjoyed and learned a lot from this video..thank you!

[@LironYan]

+MsChareng Happy to hear 😊🙏🏼 Thank you

[@syfy666]

How do you get your schmincke paints? I have a very old set of it and I really want to buy a new one but there is no store in Israel selling them that I know of... By the way thank you so much for recommending arta and w&n paints to me! I went there a few days ago and the paints I got are very very nice! I am going to mai art next week too as I need to go to dizengoff center anyway. Also, you are my favorite youtuber at the moment! I love your content!

[@LironYan]

Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 I believe there's a store in Eilat street, Jaffa that is the official importer of Schmincke in Israel. Perhaps it's פנינה לאמן? In any case - they should be available. I was lucky enough to have Schmincke send me some to review when I was in Paris 😁🎨

[@syfy666]

@@LironYan thank you!

[@syfy666]

@@LironYan I just saw that mai art is also selling schmincke... So now I have 2 stores I know of! Thanks!

[@JaredCullum]

I recently loaded some DS neutral tint because of seeing Alvaro Castagnet and Joseph Zbukvic videos.

[@LironYan]

Yes they use it heavily (: did you like it?

[@JaredCullum]

Liron Yanconsky I did! I have used it but always as a way to dull down a color. I have not tried glazing with it.

[@fabmediastudios3512]

Neutral Tint is to be used in very small doses to mute a colour.

[@Donna_G]

I have Daniel Smith Neutral Tint in my collection. I don't use it a lot; but, it seems to work to dull down some of the really bright pigments and that could be why Daniel Smith recommends it for shadows. Normally, when I am creating shadows, I just use the complement of whatever color I have on the paper. I have not used Neutral Tint in a monochromatic painting. I prefer brown tones for monochrome work. I am wondering though, is it possible to mix up your own neutral tint? You can create a black or dark by mixing all three primary colors; then you can add a bit more of the blue and red to get a reasonable facsimile of neutral tint, I would think. What do you think, Liron?

[@LironYan]

This is exactly what I'm doing (: I'll post this Thursday another portrait painting process that shows this pretty well. Using only 3 primaries to get very neutral and ultra dark values.

[@BluebirdR]

Just found you. Hi Liron newby in watcolrs. Why do you /artists prefer pans vs the tubes ?

[@LironYan]

I actually prefer tubes (: Easier for me to work with, and you can have a regular supply of fresh paint! (still slightly moist, easily diluted etc)

[@BluebirdR]

@@LironYan Agree tubes is like the “Free Guy’s” ice-scream ;>

[@SammiJarrad]

Have you tried the Daniel Smith neutral tint?

[@LironYan]

I haven’t yet (: Did you try it? And if so what did you think about it?

[@SammiJarrad]

Liron Yanconsky, I haven’t. It’s on my wish list. I’ve already purchased my two Daniel Smith paints for the month. French Ultramarine & Carbazole Violet. :) I’m suuuper happy with those. I used your blending technique today. It worked really well.

[@thatswhatshesaid.literally737]

*When he puts the cobalt azure saturated brush into the Indian yellow pan I'm like* 😱 😳 *Lol!*

[@LironYan]

😂😂 I don’t really care about contamination 😛 But I can see why that’s shocking to some

[@FuriedHearts]

I knowwwwwww. Omg it makes me CRINGE. I would never ever ever do that. It’s fascinating to me how artists are so different though. Also... I love how easy it is to clean dried paint. So maybe that’s why he isn’t that worried about it. Also, he paints in a looser style so color accuracy and bold colors aren’t necessarily a big factor to him

[@OhJodi69]

You must be new around here, lol

[@sumbae7668]

Nice sketch💕 what paper did you use here?

[@LironYan]

Thank you 😊 I 90% believe it was Saunders Waterford, or it could be Arches (: In any case it’s 300 gsm, cold press. I prefer Saunders personally

[@sumbae7668]

@@LironYan I've heard so much good about saunders, think I'm gonna try it then. Thank you 😊

thanks for the video!

[@LironYan]

My pleasure 🙏🏼😁 Thank you!

[@kittycatstudio]

orr..probably its meant to be used with wet over dry technique? kinda green over grayscale layer.

[@LironYan]

I think it can be used for both (: I'll have to mess around with it a little more.

[@adamlerch4440]

ahh you drew a birdie!

[@LironYan]

Haha yes, I try and demo the use of the paint as much as possible in these vids (:

[@callmedeno]

Is it just me or are schmincke easily the most expensive watercolours? I live in EU so was thinking that 'well they shouldn't be more expensive than the american brands for me'... but no... price wise they are insane!

[@soliferi]

noooo why??? I just ordered two Schmincke paints because of paint set withdrawal (packed in a hurry).

[@soliferi]

not much different to sepia but less colour influence I guess.

[@FlidaisPeridotEyes]

It is very different! :)

[@LironYan]

Yes, it's pretty different. Sepia is brown while this is a more neautralized magenta (:

[@soliferi]

I'll test it with the swatch if i have enough left, I mean in use like mixing deeper colours/ shadows like with indigo and sepia (schmincke). neatral magenta sounds right, i don't know i'll have to try it xD
