Watercolour Feather Tutorial Testing Out Beam Paints!

[@JadeWatercolors]

Love LOVE both Emma and these paints!!

[@ceilidhsnider4181]

Love, love, love Beam paints!! I have 10 watercolour "paint stones" and two gouache. They are stunning! I have 3 of the mica, the salmon is particularly amazing. I also got a Beam travel brush - size 4 - it is actually pretty much my favourite brush! I'd like to get more, likely Orca and Rainforest. So happy to see you supporting this wonderful Canadian Indigenous female owned small company. Beam absolutely deserves our support and respect!

[@RendaJane]

The woman who makes these Beam paints is wonderful. I have ordered a few of these. They are amazing. I have used a lot of professional watercolor paints, and I enjoy these a lot. They are highly pigmented and absolutely beautiful!!!!! I 💙 Beam paints, and they always send me fun extra surprise treats!!!!! They are awesome! I love supporting small business like Beam and Emma Jane.

[@lindaviteretto9186]

I got these about a year ago...just sampler dots on a card. LOVE THEM! even dots have lasted. I don’t use often as they are pricey so just for special purposes. Packaging is amazing.

[@leonasutherland7978]

Emma Jane, I am so proud of you for supporting Canadian Artists and show what is available to those of us here in Canada. Thank you for this video it was awesome :)

[@graczkowskifamily]

I have three little daughters and we just started watching your channel. We all love it! Now they make videos of themselves painting and talking themselves through the painting like you do, it's so funny. Thank you for the content and huge inspirational work! Hoping to get some real paper and brushes. We've been using reg printer paper 🤦‍♀️

[@johannamdunn]

I have to tell you how much I enjoy your videos they are so informative and fun to watch and you are a wonderful teacher thank u

[@cassiesmith4826]

I'd love to see these paints make another appearance in your videos!

[@leslie-annepepin8927]

I just got my Beam paints today. And I have the same snap brushes. Will be starting my new sketchbook with feathers tomorrow. Wonderful paints.

[@melissachampagne299]

How was the palette? I just ordered some paints from beam. What do you think about them?

[@GriffithsJacqueline]

These colours are beautiful, I love the feathers & the way you mixed them, the combinations are just lovely, fresh & springlike. Thank you Emma. 💐

[@gardener5857]

I love this company. Everything about it. And their packaging is just perfect.

[@patriziacathey605]

I think it's great to support small businesses, as they are vital to their communities. Hopefully soon they will be able to provide basic information on packaging . Loved the colorful feathers!

[@finnegan517]

I came across Beam’s watercolor last year, and I’m so enamored by them, too. And your feathers look so magical in their colors!

[@klea6133]

Amazing how you can make a feather and just about anything look so realistic! Thank you for all the tutorials! They make the world of watercolor seem possible to capture.

[@cathypierre1150]

I love your feathers and the fact a portion of the Beam paints is going to such a great cause❤️. They look amazing!

[@ckmiffy]

I love your product reviews! It’s so fun seeing what new and fun tools are available in the watercolour world.

[@angelcalico8663]

Omgosh those colors are beautiful!! And the gold!! I love your feathers, you make them look so easy. You (and those colors) are always an inspiration 💜 off to paint some feathers!!

[@charlenebyington7405]

Wow...absolutely gorgeous, you make them so easy. I have to try it. Thanks for sharing. 🌿🌺🌿🦋🌿

[@mamtatehlani405]

I also tried by watching you...feeling happy with these colourful feathers

[@LisaYoungmpp]

Beautifully painted feathers, Emma! Love the colors of Beams paints!

[@robertweinblatt2018]

I just ordered 20 paint stones with a gorgeous hand drilled pine palette❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🥰🙏🏻

[@lindablackerby9819]

I love how pigmented they are

[@ann-marielofberg1159]

Theese colours look amazing. I loooove the feathers and Agree that they are fun and relaxing to do.

[@pattioneill3849]

Feathers are beautiful and one of my favorites that you've done.

[@melissaadams140]

Thank you for introducing us to these paints! I definitely would like to try them. Such beautiful and fresh colors!

[@danakolpin1289]

The feathers are really great I am going to try these as a beginner

[@catherinedidomenico814]

These are lovely! Thanks for sharing. I am, right now (!) searching all over the internet for them!!

[@shaustin22]

Such pretty paints and feathers. 💜💙💜💙

[@RendaJane]

I ordered the 3 primary colors. And she sent me a bonus. She sent me green (my favorite). I absolutely LOVE her paints.

[@amyhendrick3538]

OMG those are gorgeous!!!!

[@BackroadsArtStudio]

I really love that aqua!!! I love the concept they have and what they stand for! I may just need to buy some now, lol. Oh the addiction..... Beautiful feathers!

[@SlappingPaintonPaper]

Oh this is beautiful will totally be ordering some...

[@leppardess]

The more I see these paints being used, the more I want to get some. They're so beautiful and so pigmented!! It's awesome too to support a business run by women who are also First Nation. This point in addition to how awesome the paints themselves are, that they strive to be plastic free and eco friendly make me want to own these paints more than anything. It hits all the right notes for me..... natural ingredients, eco friendly packaging, supporting indigenous women.

[@chrischurchley7003]

Wow - so beautiful 😍. I was so pleased to see they ship to the UK - can’t wait to try. Your feathers are lovely - thank you for bringing these paints to us 🙏😁

[@elsbethnietschmann947]

I love your beautiful colors and the way you show them 😍❤️😘💐

[@ArtwithLorien]

Best paints ever! So happy that your audience is being exposed to the poplar repurposed "cookie" and Anong's work! She's the best!

[@reneebanbury7066]

I love these paints! The feathers are very pretty too

[@sherisennhauser7456]

I bought these paints a month ago totally love them

[@jodipackardeverlith7854]

This is an awesome video! Very cool paint set that you reviewed and I love the feathers you painted! Thank you 😊

[@juliehickman2880]

I believe the birch mini is equivalent to 5/8 pans. The website does include that info. Gorgeous!

[@cecilehoare3053]

Love the way they preform! I think I'll be making a purchase today! If they are quality paints they are worth spending the money on!

[@peregrinecentre]

You can get all these pastel colours by adding your normal paints in tiny quantities to white gouache. Save your money and buy good paper!!!

[@cecilehoare3053]

For the gouache ones, yes. But what's wrong with supporting women in small business? I don't find spending money on art supplies a waste of money, it's cheaper than therapy and get more enjoyment out if it! I think I will invest in the pigment stones, having a collection of them gives my family the option for gift ideas!

[@peregrinecentre]

@@cecilehoare3053 Nothing at all wrong with supporting women in business, or men come to that or even children. I just think that a business transaction should be fair and honest. It looks as if those paints are very weak in pigment. When Emma let them dry they went very light, even lighter than normal paints do, and we all know that watercolours dry lighter. Of course it’s hard to tell exactly when watching on a screen so I could be mistaken. Also there is often a lot of reflected light on the videos from Emma’s studio which makes it hard to see exactly what the colour depth is. However I am grateful for the heads up about this new manufacturer. I don’t have anything against supporting small businesses, being a small business owner myself I would be a hypocrite not to support others. Which is why I am on here commenting on this channel.

[@taranicholson282]

Love it. Can’t wait for my paints to arrive.

[@LetteringArtbyDinda_]

I think it has soft color, i love it !

[@Jewlelil]

Ahhh I just got an order in from Beam paints

[@lindawitherspoon446]

Great video. I’m going to give this a try.

[@maggieshontz3501]

Gorgeous. Thank you.

[@diannedupuis2960]

Thanks for a great review!

[@vozamaraktv-art5595]

These look amazing. I'm planning on buying them soon. 💙

[@Kb1901kb_kris]

Love those colors

[@EnjoyDrawingwithMary]

Those paints look amazing! love how much pigment they have :) gold is amazing! And I agree for the guache that look more like watercolor paints! Love your feathers Emma! they are beautiful! 😍😍 I love to paint feathers! once I painted watercolor american indian chief and he had a headdress with many colorful feathers 💖☺️ I think that's one of my favorite works I made 😊 those little feathers you painted look so light and I love the touch of gold 😍😍 thank you for this review and sharing it with us! 💖😀💖

[@susanzavala2102]

That was wonderful! Thank you!🎉

[@LCLand]

I wonder how long they last. Incredibly expensive. I can squeeze paint into a piece of wood for the adorable cuteness factor. I just am not seeing the value. Actually my husband will be excited to drill holes in some wood and shellac it all pretty for a palette 😀

[@Samiras_Diary01]

Wow♥️

[@monica-NJ-123]

Nice work , you never disappoint me xoxo

[@lisacarnevale7232]

could you update how long these last you? They are beautiful, but pricey! This is so pretty!

[@EmmaLefebvre]

I will for sure!

[@lisacarnevale7232]

@@EmmaLefebvre thx so much!:)

[@LimeadeGal]

Those colors are gorgeous! Do you find that you can layer with these ? Thank you for sharing & the inspo can't wait to paint some feathers now.

[@EmmaLefebvre]

I actually didn’t test that... I should and I’ll let you know!

[@patriciabeyer7824]

The colours are very nice. It would be interesting to know how much paint is in them.

[@sierracarscadden6049]

Oh man! Love these paints! Tried to order them and they won’t ship to me here in Idaho. I’m bummed. 😞

[@sanjeevakumar2400]

Wonderful!!!😍😍😍😍

[@01fatina]

💕💕💕💕

[@sahej6939]

What brushes would be best with this medium?

[@tweetlittlebirdie2544]

Thank you for your video! I wanted to order them but unfortunately indigo doesn’t ship to Germany 🙆🏻‍♀️

[@priyankapurohit9727]

Wow

[@lindaromano5024]

Hi Emma I was wondering if you have the names of the beam paints you purchased, I also purchase the same ones, Thank you 👩‍🎨Linda

[@katalinar77]

Thanks :)

[@inesmoura9446]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@shawnas464]

Love the feathers! But the paints are $48…ouch😶

[@TuxieTude]

Looks like Daniel Smith dot cards 😹 Sorry but $60 for a tiny palette based primarily on esthetic doesn't make them worth it to me.

[@paintingtheskykingdom9005]

i hope she will let us know how they compare to dot cards, like if it ix twice or 3 times as much. Also , they are handmade and it sounds like they have more pigment in them (meaning they will last longer) than commercial paints, even daniel smith.

[@EmmaLefebvre]

I know the size and price are a bit of a stretch. Definitely not for everyone and I get that. I plan to do an update when I find out how much paint is actually in there

[@paintingtheskykingdom9005]

@@EmmaLefebvre thanks@!

[@peregrinecentre]

The little cookies look cool but they’re not very practical for everyday use - it’s just something to treat as a novelty. One thing that came to mind was that because you have to scrub away at the paint with your brush to get it out of the holes you will end up making your brush lose its point very quickly if you’re not careful. That is one of the downsides of using any kind of pan paint. Particularly when it’s in such a small hole with no space around it to spread the paint out from the dry reservoir area.

[@EmmaLefebvre]

@@peregrinecentre that is a good point. I think yes, these small palettes are more like a novelty to have. They do have bigger paints that are not in these wood cookies too.

[@namratagarud4674]

They dont ship to India

[@jennylittlefield3293]

Emma, thanks for this review! These look amazing! I was wondering if u still liked your craftamo watercolor brushes. U haven’t used them lately and they haven’t been in your description. I had been thinking of trying them but just wondered if u would still recommend after using for a while. Thank u again for your tutorials. U have taught me so much!!

[@EmmaLefebvre]

Yes! Still love them. Just switching it up :)

[@dawnpehle9803]

Are you on patreon?

[@loati94]

They look kind of chalky and opaque for being watercolor

[@nobodynothing2594]

Sure does waste of lot of good pigment on paper towel & water jar which would’ve easily been wiped down the sides of an extra palette. Just my opinion. Great tutorial as always.

[@AbraCassandraCrafts]

Dang $60 for that little bit of paint? I’m all for supporting small businesses but not when they blatantly take advantage of people like that…

[@lizg859]

I think watercolour painting isn’t for me.

[@CobraDove1111]

I can't stand being spoken to like I'm a 3 year old

[@cheapscaitcreates7362]

It’s a tutorial... what were you expecting? 😂

[@cyndigerard7486]

Everyone is a different level and likes different teaching style. Emma is for me and obviously others. . If it’s not your thing, can’t you just exercise tolerance and move on.

[@peregrinecentre]

Everyone is entitled to express an opinion even if slightly critical. I agree with cobradove but still watch EJL because I want to keep up with art trends.

[@EmmaLefebvre]

That’s ok. There are tons of more advanced tutorials on KZbin. I try to target more to beginners :)

[@LCLand]

@@EmmaLefebvre I don’t feel like you’re speaking to a 3 year old. Pretty mean comment. You’re a sweet friendly happy woman and that bugs some people. Your style is carefree and inspirational for any level artist. 🌷
