Student Grade Paul Rubens Watercolor | Sketchbook Habit Day07

[@KimberlyCrick]

The Paul Rubens watercolor paper looks like it's handling everything you throw at it really well! I was impressed after all the layers, then tape/gouache... I always feel nervous watching someone tear off tape. I crossed my fingers that the adhesive didn't rip any fibers :D

[@VictoriaGedvillas]

Kimberly Crick Art I’m pretty impress with it too! Very tempted to buy the larger version - I’m kind feel cooped up atm. The only gripe I have, other than it’s perforated- the paper is a bit soft, that it’s dulling the tips of my pencils too fast. Other than that, very happy.

[@damurdergoose619]

Tori was the first art youtuber i ever watched, and after three years she’s the only one i really keep up with. I always look forward to her fresh perspective and professionalism. Often her videos just make my day, so thank you and keep it up!

[@rephaelreyes8552]

Tori I have no idea how you’re pumping 1 video a day for this series! I just hope you aren’t spending too much time editing these videos and don’t burn out by the end of this series

[@spilledteaissadtea3037]

Yes please show us the dried version!! I’m a beginner when it comes to watercolor so I’m considering these tubes.

[@cenazias3210]

I got a pack of those watercolor tubes and dried them down and they work just fine. Be careful what container you choose to put them in, mine keep falling off since I keep them in my school bag (I got the pack that comes with a container to put them in, it was super expensive and tbh not really worth it, better to get a tin and some empty half pans and fill them) , but just putting a little water on the bottom of the dried paint and sticking it back into the palate works just fine. The paint takes more than 24 hours to dry (I was super bummed I couldn't use them immediately) but after two-four days they should be good. Good luck, I hope you find some watercolors that work for you!!

[@spilledteaissadtea3037]

Cenazias thanks! Well take your advice!

[@person5564]

@@cenazias3210 ooo! which set do you have? I have the 18pc set and I dig it. I feel like some colors are just not needed, though, such as the two PV19 colors, the black, and the warm red that's mixed with a yellow but still looks... exactly like the single pigment version? I think it's pretty good for my needs as a beginner, though :D

[@ocrionbunny4543]

This is my favorite of your daily sketchbook pieces so far! Love the design and the bits of gouache! I also appreciate all reviews you do! I always see in places like amazon reviews where everybody just says "theyre good paints I use them just fine", but not much further input on pigment and the little things that set them apart from other paints. I'm glad you can give a bit more information based on your knowledge as an experienced artist! :)

[@soundmouse2198]

I'd love to see how the paint rewets after being dry! I never use up all my paint whenever I use them fresh, but don't want to waste the paint. As for the Winsor and Newton cotman tubes, I've only ever used two colours and had a different experience with both. The payne's grey is pretty nice and still lives on my palette with my professional paints. The purple lake (it's a PV19 paint that resembles a quin violet) on the other hand doesn't reactivate well, is pretty weak, and sometimes sits weirdly on the paper. I know there's a certain level of difference between colours, but this felt pretty stark. I love the neutral greys in today's piece!

[@LiamAmazarashi]

I never knew about the murky water but it makes so much sense! Thank you for that

[@Knicknox]

I would love to see your thoughts on the winsor and newton set now, I just ordered them for myself to begin with and would love to know your opinions on them now.

Victoria Gedvillas Aww that’s so sweet! I have a handful but I guess my favorites are permanent rose, indigo, and gamboge hue (and Payne’s gray 😊)

[@nalcarya]

I found a 24 set of them them on amazon (Germany) while looking for the artist grade tube set and was wondering if/when you wre gonna talk about these :D

[@pahharper]

Rub a tissue against the dried swatches. It can help you tell the quality and amount of fillers in a paint. If there's pigment on the tissue then it's not the greatest quality and there's alot of fillers.

[@LanaGoesArt]

This is a great first impression! Thanks :)

[@godzandheros]

the student grade quin rose looks like the lukas rose pan i got :x

[@leilazerrouki7040]

i did not know Paul Rubens had student grade, but I'm wondering if it is really useful theor usual paints are at the price of some student grade but at a higher quality, while not being high high so you don't have that pressure of wasting product. I think it's a nice alternative even for a beginner as particularly when you begin you are discouraged by so many things, so many factors to improve at the same so why not beginning with already one of those factors - paint quality - out of the way by buying high quality but cheap like Paul Rubens regular set ? their student grade is looking very nice tho.

always interesting to hear your opinion on supplies. im someone who loves student grade things and even painting on printer paper because the way it dries is fun to me so its interesting hearing from people with standards for what they tend to work with. i really can make due with anything but hearing what other people simply cant work with. either it hinders their inspiration or it hurts the pieces they make in their eyes or they just dont wanna use it. the reasons tend not to make a lot of sense to me.. but its nice theres things out there for everyone.

I have the WnN Cotman tubes from like 2015 and I think they are weak. It might be because i poured them in pans for convenience, but it takes a lot of digging to get vibrancy, and even then some colors in the set (like the red) are dull. The red in my 10 year old crayola pans was more vibrant lol. I now have a schminke tube set and some Daniel Smith and you can really see the jump in quality.

[@lex00exia]

Tori, if you ever find this, was wondering as you spoke about Prima watercolors and knowing how you like their sets, have you come across the mungyo paints? I dont recall you going through them in the declutter vid but i couldve just missed them, so i wanted to ask... I found info that prima and mungyo are basically the same so i thought id ask if you havent used them, or in case you did, what is your opinion (or anyone else here in comments, hi people :3)

[@ThunderStruck15]

They're not "basically" the same, they are the same. Prima is just a licensed brand of mungyo, the frugal crafter wrote the company and asked.

[@anetkrausova]

@@ThunderStruck15 thank you :) i couldn't find much more info about it, only a question on some forum somewhere, and for some reason didn't come across that person, do they have a channel or smth? So thatz great, does that mean that they use the same paint pigments? Mungyo is easily buyable where i live and primas can only be bought from abroad and i don't want to bother with buying duplicates with all the hustle around packages now...

[@ThunderStruck15]

Annette Kraus she’s probably the biggest art supply reviewer out there, she has a KZbin channel and a blog- but take it with a grain of salt, she’s primarily a crafter, not an artist

[@ThunderStruck15]

The student line of Paul Rubens are called "Pretty Excellent" those are *not* student grade paints, they're just eastern watercolor companies making Western watercolors. There are other companies that do this and have similar effects in water. They are also new to tube paints, and I'm sure they're still fixing them, which is why the pigments are different.
