The reason I love the paint to bloom and mix and mingle is because it creates magic on the page. Whatever you are painting can get these fabulous mixes. Like flowers on the hillside or beautiful oceans, skies, and sand. Landscapes, rocks etc. Thank you for the video!

Aww I totally understand that, it comes down to personal preference 😊. I love watching the paint bloom when I do these tests but I find it difficult when painting

Schmincke Horadam has different sorts of Ultramarin: Ultramarine finest (P29) not granulating, Ultramarine blue (PB 15 and PB 29) not granulating, and French Ultramarine (PB 29) which is granulating. They also have a transparent Ochre ( PY 42). Also transparent siena and transparent umber Thank you for all your videos, i am glad that i found your channel.

[@TammyNewmanArt]

Aww thank you for watching the video and for the additional information. I think unfortunately, the set I bought weren’t their best

[@JayNathanWatercolor]

Another great comparison. It looks like most of your Schmincke paints are opaque? The Daniel Smith paints look very nice. It's crazy how much the yellow and ultramarine disperse. Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@TammyNewmanArt]

I’m not sure if they all are, I think it’s just the set I have lol

[@hxsm8090]

If you rewatch your video, why does it feel like you put a very pigmented schmincke but a very watered down daniel smith?

Thank you!

To be fair in comparison, one must take note of the transparency indicated on the tube of each of these colors. Here they are: DANIEL SMITH Bismuth Vanadate Yellow : semi transparent Cadmium Yellow Light Hue : semi transparent Perylene Scarlet ; semi transparent Rhodonite Genuine ; transparent Ultramarine Blue : transparent Yellow Ochre : transparent Burnt Sienna : semi transparent SCHMINCKE Lemon Yellow : semi transparent Cadmium Yellow Light ; semi opaque Cadmium Red Light : opaque Permanent Carmine : semi opaque Ultramarine Finest : semi transparent Yellow Ochre ; semi opaque English Venetian Red : opaque As we can see most colors by Daniel Smith are listed as transparent or semi transparent while most Schmincke Colors are listed as semi opaque or opaque. There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of these Colors ; we simply cannot compare them on this basic. Transparency is also not necessarily a sign of quality per se. Schmincke indeed also offer transparent ochre, transparent sienna and transparent umber (which are all transparent alternatives to yellow ochre, burnt sienna and burnt umber). Honestly, these two brands are both of very high quality. Maybe Schmincke is indeed more traditional (founded in Germany 1881) while Daniel Smith is more « in vogue » (founded in USA 1976). I would add, as a last thought, that the great Joseph Zbukvic - maybe one of the most influential watercolorist living today - uses Schmincke Horadam watercolours.

You have the wrong Scmincke colours. They do have a transparent alternative for each of the colours you thought were opaque. There’s use for both

[@fforfestival]

Yes. Schmincke’s Transparent Ochre is beautiful that surprises me

[@gumpymcbarfbag3884]

Daniel Smith all day.
