I love your color choices and how you arrange your paints in the Folio. I find it interesting to see how each artist does their pallette setup, everyone has a unique way of doing things.

[@ultramarine_finest]

yeah isn't it! i also find it interesting, i love looking at other artists' palettes and swatches and their finished work🤩and thank you for your kind words💕

[@dkstamberose]

This was so interesting to watch! I would love a video about your color choices and how you use them!

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you! i will be working on it :p

[@evydraws-art]

That swatch and mixing chart page in your sketchbook looks amazing! This was such an interesting watch and makes me want to create a travel palette, too

[@ultramarine_finest]

aww thank you so much!! 🥹

[@dianaromig732]

Excellent 🎉 These thin pallets are a game changer. Puts the artist more in control of color choices which can be easily changed ❤. Nice color choices 😅

[@ultramarine_finest]

yeah i totally agree, it's amazing to be able to choose different amounts of paint too! i love it!

[@gillyslikejillysart7458]

I love your configuration. I am going to hit purchase soon and needed ideas. Thank you so much for sharing!❤

[@ultramarine_finest]

im glad it's helpful 😊 and thank you for watching.

[@DAYbreaking_Ideas]

This video was very helpful. I have the same pallet that I bought for a trip to Switzerland (I’m in the USA). I love the idea to swatch it using size templates! Thank you!

[@ultramarine_finest]

oh im so glad to hear that! and thank you for watching😊

[@sesesu]

I haven’t seen it before. It’s so useful for watercolor. Thank you for sharing .I will definitely buy it.

[@ultramarine_finest]

I'm glad it was useful to you! ☺️ and i hope you enjoy it if you do buy it😊

[@TracyIndy]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful palette. I love all the extra mixing areas you put in there. If you are going to a very hot & humid climate, you might want to reconsider taking honey based paints as they typically melt and go everywhere, making a big mess. 😮 I absolutely love them, but they should sit stationary in a cool art room or a well sealed individual container. I hope you have a wonderful time during your travels. 😊 TFS 🙏

[@Jlalode]

I was thinking the same thing about the Indanthrene Blue. It could make a mess 🤪

[@TracyIndy]

@Jlalode I still have a few pans I poured 5 five years ago and they are still tacky. 🤣 😝

[@ultramarine_finest]

oh dear, i can't believe it has already happened! it got stuck on my pinky today after i sprayed the palette😱but im glad it happened at home, not in some park in the city somewhere 🤣 thank you so much🥹

[@ultramarine_finest]

yep it sure did 😅 i didnt expect it to came off the palette so easily and stuck on my finger 😱

[@TracyIndy]

@@ultramarine_finest I wouldn't have been able to tell you about it without having made these same messes myself. 🤣😱 😆 I'm happy you found out now, rather than on your trip. 👍

[@currysues]

Very Helpful! Giving me lots of options. Ty

[@ultramarine_finest]

glad to hear that! thanks :)

[@PaletteAdventure]

I had the folio palette for a while now but I’ve just set it up last weekend. Altho I had the smaller palettes for years now. If im painting outside, I just wipe/dab the mixing space dry so that it wont spill and contaminate paints. Its easy to do for peace of mind.

[@ultramarine_finest]

ah thank you that's great to know! are you making a video about your setup? does the palette quality hold up over the years?

[@jillwiswall5386]

I’d love to hear more details about your color selections for this palette and how you chose them!

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you! im currently working on it😊

[@twozsinapod]

You might enjoy Quinacridone Sienna from Daniel Smith as an orange, though I can't remember which pigments are in it. If you're avoiding PY150 because of the nickel toxicity, be aware that Green Gold is also made from a related pigment (PY129) that is also often labeled as toxic.

[@ultramarine_finest]

oh thank you! i had no idea about green gold being labled as toxic i will have to look into that!

[@wmbrison6979]

So great to plug a palette that isn’t even available. Wow glad you got one!

[@ultramarine_finest]

sorry i didnt understand? it was available for order when i checked...

[@loramay21]

Schmincke transparent orange

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you! i will check it out ☺

[@cranberry8858]

love the colour selections :) I quite like winsor orange if you haven't already tried that

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you! i will check my dot card and try it ☺️

[@cherylrogalsky1711]

Thanks for this very interesting video! I'm also very curious about your white mixing palette to the left of your paints. Love that shape ... can you share where you found it?

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you! do you mean that seashell-shaped ceramic pallet? i got it on sostrenegrene.com 😇

[@WhstlblwrBlastingEpsteinsILK]

Mungyo is duping this pallette.

[@insertaghere]

Can you stick pans to the top flap of the folio too? Or will it not close if you try? I want to buy this pallette but wish the top flap had some kind of divisions

[@ultramarine_finest]

hi! no it doesn't close if i put pans there, but I've seen this artist came up with a workaround and it might be helpful to you :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqPHhGyCbsulhq8

[@cutelostsoul20]

Where did you get the shell pallet?

[@ultramarine_finest]

it's from sostrenegrene.com :)

Interesting video but you were speaking so softly that I had to put up the volume to the max. You may want to adjust your settings there!

[@ultramarine_finest]

thank you for the feedback and i'm sorry about that 🥲i'm still learning to navigate editing software... will make sure to adjust the volume next time!

@@ultramarine_finest You're welcome! Your videos are very inspiring and enjoyable :3
