Thank you so much for sharing your Daniel Smith earth colors.😊

[@denisespillane9242]

I did not think I would like so much. But I love them. I have bronze and Venetian red that’s it. I guess I need more.

[@melodycrites3145]

Fired gold ochre, lovely colour and granulates nicely.

[@chris.369]

Hello Lily! These colours are gorgeous indeed. I adore earth colours… The bird is a Cetti’s warbler (at least Merlin bird ID says so). Such a beautiful sound! I absolutely adore birds! We have many birds visiting the feeder here and many more visiting the garden looking for insects on the plants and on the ground. They are a source of great joy to me! Have a lovely weekend!

[@lilymoonart]

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for letting me know which kind of bird the bird song was from! ❤️ I feel so blessed to be able to listen to them while I work 🥰. I agree with you, they are indeed a great source of joy! Have a wonderful weekend too! xoxo

[@shonascouten3871]

I’m so happy to have found your channel recently! Love your artists excitement that comes through noticing all the little things. Keep being you!

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you so much Shona!❤️🥰

[@Joan4me]

Me too ❤

[@suel4269]

Love all those colors and I already have most of them. Yikes 😮

[@missparadise879]

I needed this. Thank you. I am all about Earth colors and trying to decide which ones I want from Daniel Smith. I will have to watch more of your videos now that I've found you. Beautiful swatch card!

[@seraphoftherose]

Your videos are so calming and well done, they have quickly become my go to for when I need to decompress and enjoy something in a very pure sort of way. Your art gives me a lot of the same vibes as the Beatrix Potter stories I used to read as a child, and you are incredibly talented. I joined your Patreon recently to help support, and I always look forward to anything you put up. Thank you so much for spending your time and creativity with all of us. Also, I would love a video about the Mineral Museum!

[@lilymoonart]

I am so incredibly grateful to you, thank you so much for supporting me Seraphoftherose!💖 All my patrons mean the world to me, they allow me to create the artwork that I truly love xoxo I am so honoured to have you as one of them, thank you!💖

[@jillweisensee8524]

Thank you, Lily! Please don’t apologize for disliking metallics - I’m in full agreement! Loved hearing the birds in the background, too. Your videos always bring me joy. ❤

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you Jill! It's good to hear I am not alone! ❤️😁

[@nathalieheath5693]

So pretty!!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I definitely have to check out Lunar Earth! I have Lunar Red Rock but mine is much richer and darker than the one you swatched here? I also adore earth colours! If you haven't tried the QOR earth colours, you should. :)

[@lilymoonart]

Maybe I used too much water with the Lunar Red Rock? Or, which is also likely, lots of binder accumulated to the top of the tube as I haven't used paint from the tube in a long while? Lunar Earth has a beautiful granulation, I am sure you'll enjoy it ☺️. I had no idea that QOR had a really lovely earth colour range...off to to check them out, thank you!❤️

[@everartokelli]

Lovely swatching, thanks! One quibble is that Lunar Red Rock is much darker in masstone, maybe too much water here? It's similar to Indian Red, just more transparent and granulating. It's a recent purchase for me and I'm having tons of fun playing with it. Enjoyed your bird friends!

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you for the tip!☺️

[@loveandlife4222]

I wish you would show us how you use these earth colors. I am thinking you must use them for rocks and in landscapes? I’d love to see!

[@lilymoonart]

Hi! Yes I do, rocks, pebbles, landscapes, subject matters that have an earthen feel, like pottery etc, but also mixed with other colors to give texture or/and a more natural feel 😊

[@Angie-pl3uw]

Goethite is a brown ochre as well.

[@Sglinert]

I think you would love Piedmotite, if you haven't already tried it. It's in my daily watercolor box. I do hope you do a rock tutorial at some point--I love those! And thanks so much for the relaxing, charming swatching video!

[@lilymoonart]

I must try it, thank you so much for your suggestion! And being as wonderfully kind as ever!💖

[@AmazinGraceXOXO1]

I use a fine point sharpie and write the name of the colors and brand at the bottom and side of my pans the moment I transfer them. Maybe try doing that? That might help you in the future if they get mixed up again.

[@BlancaVarguesArt]

very nice video, beautiful colors😍😍

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you 🤗

[@RATTE1606]

very interessting ... your earthy colors are all very warm - more on the yellowish- or redish-side and that is very useful with different blue´s to get mixtures that are much more cooler if you need ... I´m thinking, that I don´t need so much different colors, because I pick up mostly per watercolor work only two, or three for a limited palette to geht a harmonicly result at the end. this is my way to learn more about the different pigments and I have a lot of fun with my color mixing experiments, also if I´m not a big artist ... atm I try out supergranulating colors from "white nights". I have a 12 color palette and all the 12 colors looks also very dark - near black in the pan. every color is very spezial on his own wise and I can create awesome pictures with them. some times it is a little bit funny if I go with the brush in the wrong color, because all 12 looks so dark O.o and on the paper with enough water you can see all the colorful granulating pigments in action :) I need a little bit more practice with these very highly pigmented colors in a finest artists quality ...

[@patti3d]

I don't think I met a color I didn't like! 😻 All the colors you swatched here are gorgeous! I love your presentation. I love listening to the birds too. I have 6 parakeets and play all day long a CD of songbirds. They love it too and very calming for me.

[@lilymoonart]

How lovely!! A house full of songbird sounds, sounds so magical and calming ❤️🥰

[@iadenicole931]

Great colours and lovely bird sounds. What more can we ask for? Your visit to the mountain museum sounds great. Love to see that.

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you! I am hoping to make that trip to the mineral museum when the weather gets a little more warmer! 😊❤️

[@gailbrule1744]

I love your videos…so calming and lovely. And your artwork is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you so much Gail!🥰❤️

[@Kdmud]

Thank you Lily, great video, lovely paintings and swatching 🎉

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you! It was so lovely talking to you all! ❤😊

[@Samantha_tookey197]

I’ve just found you, I saw the Daniel smith paint and I had to watch. I love your style and lovely calming videos. I’m a new fan ❤

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you so much Samantha! ❤️

[@nadeanecurnuck2080]

Beautiful swatches, love how excited you are about what you are sharing. And thank you genuinely for acknowledging the other hemisphere, so often we are overlooked ❤

[@koskey06]

Well.....there is 3 more colors i need!

[@MsMoniqueWilson]

Love your swatching videos. So peaceful and relaxing...though at times a little pricey LOL

[@lilymoonart]

Haha, I'm sorry! They are sooo many glorious colours, and we want to try them all! 😁❤

[@MsMoniqueWilson]

@@lilymoonart Sooo many colours...soooo many different makers! I need to win the lotto LOL

[@lilymoonart]

@@MsMoniqueWilsonhaha me too!! 😄

[@kristinbrown5683]

Really beautiful colors.❤️

[@eric_the_egggremlin]

I haven't been feeling well so I missed some of your videos but I'm so glad I'm watching this now, the little bird singing and the sunlight and the beautiful colors are so comforting.

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you Eric! Hope you are feeling much better!!😊❤️

[@tammieoneal1296]

I want every one of these colors! They are just beautiful!

[@lilymoonart]

I am so happy you liked them! ❤️

[@gypsysgardenthebutterflyba8317]

i love your style of art. ive been very traditional and realistic with my watercolor but when i found you on youtube i love love love your art! you are now my inspiration!

[@lilymoonart]

You are SO kind, thank you! ❤️🎨

[@jesswoodhere]

Daniel Smith has some gorgeous earth tones!

[@lilymoonart]

Yes!!❤️( and I would love to try them all some day!😁)

[@SAP64]

When I heard the songbird I thought it was outside my window not yours, lol. I live in a 7 story apartment building so all I hear are cooing pigeons, screeching seagulls and crows. Seeing the actual mineral rocks that the pigments are made from would be a real treat. Sooo ... I guess we won’t be seeing any swatching videos for metallic colours any time soon 😅. I like looking at the metallic colours in their pans, but would only use the golds & silvers on holiday themed illustrations. It will be lovely to see the red & yellow swatching videos. Take care Lily.

[@lilymoonart]

Haha Shelley, your comment about the metallics did make me chuckle!!😂Cooing pigeons are very soothing to listen to too! 🥰I really do hope they will let me film in the mineral museum, I would love to share the minerals they have there with all of you, they are so beautiful! Have a lovely weekend!! 🥰

[@ntaylo6299]

Lovely.

[@hannahthufvesson]

You’re very sweet, and I really hope you don’t feel bad! We’re all human and in the grand scheme of things that was such a minuscule detail! You’re videos are lovely and I’m looking forward to the next one! 😊 Am currently watching this one on repeat. I really needed calm (and the bird!) 😅 I also really love the PBr25! Daniel Smith’s is a bit shiny in masstone, a pet peeve of mine, so I’m gonna explore options. I got one from Rosa Gallery that I’m gonna try. And the Daniel Smith Transparent Red Oxide is so nice, but I think I might have fallen in love with the QoR one! I tend to love QoR paints, I’ve noticed. It’s just as intense and high tinting, but slightly less granular in mixes, so far. I’m digging it! 😄

[@lilymoonart]

Hannah you helped so much, thank you again!!! ❤☺I really have to check out the QOR colours 👀☺

[@hannahthufvesson]

@@lilymoonart Thank you for being so kind! ☺️❤️ Ooh, if you're gonna try some of them I highly recommend their Quinacridone Red Light, and the Indigo, and the... Haha! My list of the ones I love is long! But the Q. Red Light is a PR207, which is very similar to PR209 but slightly more orange, and it's very bright. ☺️❤️

[@lilymoonart]

@@hannahthufvesson Thank you so much for the recommendations!!! ❤ ☺

[@hannahthufvesson]

@@lilymoonart Spreading the watercolour joy! ☺️❤️ Oh and Dr. Oto Kano has a whole series with QoR swatches, if you haven't seen it already! It's great!

[@softandcosy]

love the first and last one oooh

[@lilymoonart]

❤️😊

[@patriciatolliver4057]

Patty-I'm not that fond of really dark colors or grays. However, I am beginning to like them and the greens as well. Love metallic colors. I love your swatching, and your stacked pebbles are adorable. You are a very talented person. I love that you appreciate color as much as you do.

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you so much Patti! I do love colors very much and I do worry that I sound sometimes over excited haha ...they bring me so much joy 😊❤️

[@julietoye9872]

😊💖🤗

[@elaineg60]

I'm also not a fan of metallics.. But I LOVE my DS Amethyst! I just put Bronzite on my list for next month! Can you suggest some more w natural shimmer? I AM confused and wondering if I got an off batch of Lunar Earth.. Mine looks more like a Quin Gold, just a touch of orange-red in mass tone. Strange! Also-I became so enthralled w Rosa Gallery mono-pigments-i got the set of 21-last week I ordered every other single pigment they have. They only have 2 ingredients pigment & gum arabic; making them ideal for mixing and for my "experiment", adding a Chinese binder, mingjiao (fish glue, made from bones & no it doesn't smell😂), to use it on xuan paper. Anyways: PBr25 RG is similar but less "red" than DS's... Or maybe it's my failing eyesight. 😊 Kimberly C had suggested it for mixing, but I'm finding it very overwhelming.. And it's probably the one RG pigment I'm not impressed with. I can certainly see some uses for it; but would likely choose one of my PBr7's. I AM going to play with it, along with some others tonight to try and mix a sepia tone my daughter wants. I'm sending her some paint and arches that I tore with decked edges. She asked me to "antique" the edges and had very specific "requirements" for her "sepia". Like mother, like daughter. 🤷🏼‍♀️😊 After seeing this and your greens video.. So much for not buying more paint next month🤷🏼‍♀️😂

[@lilymoonart]

Hi Elaine! A lovely shimmery natural colour is Fuchsite Genuine by Daniel Smith! It's a very pretty teal with quite a lot of shimmer to it!☺️

[@awatercolourist]

I missed this 😢

[@lilymoonart]

Not to worry, it's still lovely to see you here now! 😊😊

[@awatercolourist]

@@lilymoonart Thanks Lily! Your channel is actually becoming one of my favourite channels 🙂

[@lilymoonart]

@@awatercolourist awww, that is true compliment, thank you! ♥️😊

[@Katalina_K]

I'm sorry i know tgis video is old- but I'm looking for a more reddish pr101/102. I'm stuck between the fired gold ochre and DS burnt yellow ochre. Do you think one of those would work better? I was avoiding transparent red oxide becaause I already have yellow ochre, MANS, and scarlet- i was really looking for a less orange leaning one. I'm not sure if that makes sense but thank you for the video!!

[@MelissaMizzesC]

I think I have added new colors to my want list. 😁 KZbin is not sending me notifications when you post a new video, even though I have “all” selected. Thankfully it popped up on my home page. Every time the bird would sing during your video (and it sounded lovely), I was wondering where Baloo was and did he share your love for the birds. 😁

[@lilymoonart]

Haha, Balloo was in the garden at the time, so he wasn't around...I am sure he would have been fascinated, he usually is very inquisitive 😁How strange about YT not notifying you! Maybe I should announce videos going up on my facebook page too to let people that haven't been correctly notified know!

[@jenniedgar1391]

I like to write the names on the side of my half pans as I remove them often when making a limited pallet

[@lilymoonart]

Very good advice Jenni! I do usually write on the bottom of the pans, but because I added the little magnets to these quaterpans to keep them in place, they covered up the names.❤️❤️

[@pattitolleyparrish]

May I ask where you live> Your surroundings sound so beautiful. Thx

[@lilymoonart]

Of course! I live in the mountains of Troodos, on the island of Cyprus🌺❤️

[@pattitolleyparrish]

@@lilymoonart Wow that must be a gorgeous place to live.

[@mandieappleton8204]

I dont like them either but natural sparkles are different.

[@ericakauffman5786]

Don't apologize for your likes. No one must like metallics. Also, mistakes happen. Don't be mortified by them. You are such a dear.

[@lilymoonart]

Thank you Erica! ❤️💛❤️

[@jessbutterfly1934]

You’re not on your own I’m not a fan of metallic watercolours either. I occasionally use a little bit of gold but I just don’t have to use for them in the kind of work I want to do even in mix media I don’t use metallics I really admire some work where people use them, but I just don’t enjoy it personally either.

[@EugeniaLoli]

Unfair swatching for the Lunar Red Rock! I believe you used much more water for it than for the rest, so it came out too light. Lunar Red Rock is almost as strong as Indian Red normally.

[@jessbutterfly1934]

@lilymoonart lol dames if you do and dames if you don’t.
