White Nights Watercolor Review

[@breejordan8086]

I *adore* my White Nights. They're the only really nice set I've worked with, but they're so pigmented and lovely and smooth that I don't feel at all restricted. It's so nice to see your beautiful work done with a brand I'm familiar with! It definitely inspires me to go to do something new and different and exciting

[@edenisok894]

Thinking about if I should get it but I’ve heard some of the colours are kinda opaque. Is that usually a problem or does it not affect the painting too much? It has a lot of paint for the price and i don’t like changing colours so it sounds like a very good palette.

[@kinddarina]

@@edenisok894 as Russian, I could give advice not to buy White Nights and Nevskaya Palitra products. Now they have awful quality (especially in watercolor in tubes) and also now we have drama on KZbin about watercolor. So, Russian art-community cancelled the brand. I don’t know, what is happening abroad, so I could not say about the quality for export. 🥸

[@edenisok894]

@@kinddarina ah, ok! I'll stay clear, that's nice to know. Except I already bought some :/ but it's just a the small set. Thanks for warning me!

[@InLiquidColor]

Your swatching in this video is particularly satisfying 😍 I love your color selections. I also picked my colors out instead of a premade set and I'm so glad I did! I'm so much happier with them than I would have been with a premade set I think. This piece definitely has a glow to it!

[@taliabeach4133]

Hello! I noticed you stamped the date on each of your smaller paintings and I love that idea!! I’m wondering which stamper you use for that?

[@taliabeach4133]

Oh haha oops didn’t mean to ask you but I love your channel too!

[@nancyhall3460]

I’m going to get a premade set and swap at colours 😄

[@zarinaro]

Oh, man!! I'm from Kazakhstan, and a white nights watercolor palette was basically the first real art supply I was able to buy in middle school; I owe so much of my artistic journey and progress to these watercolors :')) so happy to see your review of these and so glad that you liked them, haha. Also, I really like the science fiction funk you added to this portrait! I also fall into ruts where all I draw and paint are plain old faces, and I think adding funky lines here and there is a really cool idea to freshen up a piece :'')

[@izthistaken]

I actually made a deal with myself that if I completed all of inktober I would buy myself these watercolors so this has kind of been a sign from above that I should be diligent this October lol great video and very informative

[@FannyMMOs]

I love your comments because I just ordered individual pans of those, while making some different choices than the 12 set they offered. I did that just because they didn't have my prefered shipping method for the sets, but still I was kinda bummed that I'm not getting that plastic packaging. I'm not anymore!

[@MeowMeowKapow]

FannyMMOs yeah, seriously! If you want to see what I’m talking about, I highlighted those issues in my review (while making super cute adventure time doodles!) and the physical palette itself was really the only true downfall. =^.^= well, and their weird color choices but that’s no biggie.

[@Karen-ji3eu]

Something I love about your art is that you really get to the point where there's an atmosphere, something like vulnerability that makes them so unique. I really enjoy them, seeing your work and listening to your voice that is incredibly warm! I don't have much to say about the watercolors, but the painting is amazing.

[@sophroniel]

I just bought a huge 36 white knights set and it is going amazingly. I love the paints more than even my pro W&N and schmincke tbh. The vibrancy and the ability to tone then down if needed is just awesome. I love this piece you painted here btw. It's BEAUTIFUL!

[@nursen2106]

do you still love the white night paints? after two years? I guess, it depends, on what an how one does paint. maybe. I wonder, once, one gets over the fact, that there are so many pretty colours. what are the subjects, these colours work well?

[@sophroniel]

@@nursen2106 yep they are still my most used pan watercolours. They can be bright or mellow, depends how you mix em. I still recommend them. I mainly paint portraits, but also edwardian/beatrix-style flowers/animal

[@kathyhackney7950]

@@nursen2106 I finally got the white nights for Christmas and it was like WOW. Now I also have a primary set of Daniel Smith and I would say that they are very comparable but there are things you can do with each and not the other so they are both my favorite right now and I use them together.. white nights are SO pigmented. But DS are very transparent and lay super smooth. I really REALLY want to try shmincke.

[@nursen2106]

@@kathyhackney7950 I think, if you have DS, it is almost like having Schmincke. I guess, the differences are only in very few paints - qualitywise I mean. Now that our lockdown had ended, I wanted to get three of their supergranulating paints. (a real shop). They were sold out. I was sad. Only aftet I went home, I realized, I could have looked up some from DS, because they also have such paints. They are only called different :-D. I think, at least one I could have got from DS. It would have been fine as well. I live in Austria and yesterday I had learned from the QA section on thee homepage of an local artist what he thinks of White Nights. He first had learned about them few years agon in one of his masterclasses. Becaue a student had braught them with him. And he didn't recommended them then (acutally still doesn't when it comes to learning in his classes). Later he had learned some russian artits, who work with them only and now he says, he tried them and now he can respect them. but finds them still unhandy - struggles with them - for his way of painting. That I had guessed already. I did feel cool, because I could tell that before, just by watching his way of painting (which I like I must admit). But I still wonder, what that is, what the russian artist does and how he uses them. I would like to see that from an artist painter - you know what I mean? One who sells his land-cityscape pictures or stillive and such at a good price. Could be low range still. Doesn't need to be a high-priced artist. But not from someone, who actually is more an illustrator. On youtube I only see those sort of painters, liking White Nights. I never know, what to thing about it and how to use mine, because I don't do, what these illustrator type of artists do. I only know, I like White Nights when it comes to painting out a copied flower scetching and I only fill out the colours. :-) then they are super bright - but the painting looks like from a childsbook :-)

[@kathyhackney7950]

@@nursen2106 I do find several of the colors to be very opaque but some are not. I personally won't use white nights yellow for the most part because it's just TOO pigmented. It literally stresses me out lol. I do realistic and semi realistic portraits (Both) and I don't mind using the white nights for clothing or walls or landscapes but I ordered daniel smith specifically for mixing my skin tones because I wanted to have many transparent layers. The white nights yellow I just couldn't figure it out. One swipe with the brush and it overpowered everything else in the pallette lol

[@cassiesmith4826]

Hey Arleesha! I just put in my order for the 36 whole pan set! I used your affiliate link so you'll get credit for it. I have a giant collection of watercolor paints but I've yet to get a fancy set like this or a professional set. All of mine are student grade. I got a $100 tip at work tonight and the first thing I said was I'm going to treat myself to se fancy paints. Thanks for all your inspirational videos and congrats on your house !

[@RyeMi]

I use White Nights for almost 1 year already and I love them. I purchased one of the 24pcs pre-made sets, it came in 32 pan box so I have some room for few new colors which is great. :) You picked your colors very beautifully, I have like...2 of those :D Also, Happy Birthday!

[@saturdaymorning1151]

I actually live in a country where the only professional watercolors available are these. This year I actually bought Van Gogh watercolors in Italy so I have branched out a bit. But the White Nights are still my favorite. P.S. Happy birthday!

[@taliabeach4133]

Hi!! I notice you stamped the date on your mini paintings and I love that idea!!! Which stamper do you use?

[@natashat.613]

I love the ones I bought open-stock because I was looking for colours, especially natural-looking greens, that were made of single pigments. They were Russian Green and Chromium Oxide Green. I use them along with my Holbeins in my 18-colour limited palette. It's been more than a year now, I have no complaints! I will stock these their full-sized tubes because I get anxious when I see my supplies running out!

[@rebatsu]

I have tried to find out what my old and sooo awesome watercolors name was!!!!!! I mean years and now here there are!!! thank you thank you. I could kiss and hug you. These has been my ultimate best and only paints I have used. I love them because of their vibrancy. With these I also learnned to love watercolor painting. Love them. Oh and if you live in Europe or Russia and so on you will propably find these in your "local" net store or art store which I found out immediately when trying to buy new paints. Or if you live near to St.Petersburg you could always make a art trip there...which I definitely do in summer... living in Finland as I am. Thank you for this video

[@marygorshenyova5953]

I've been waiting for this video for so long!! And obviously it made me much more happy for some reason White Nights are the base for my watercolor pallet. Honestly, I think this brand doesn't give enough variety of yellows. That's my biggest struggle now, because in my country and city I can't find any replacement from another brands, and even if one day I'll order it, I don't know which one is good, enough lightfast and (hopefully) affordable. Can you, please, recommend good yellows from your experience? (And yellow ochre from White Nights is the worst colour of all that exists from them. Seriously, never try it.)

[@kallypea]

I can confirm that the White Nights yellow ochre is horrible :D If you get them in tubes and squeeze them out into a pallet, the yellows and ultramarine will just never dry. But overall they're lovely.

[@mariusvaiciulis5072]

@IAmBread a) weak. have to dig hard to pick enough colour (tube is better option in this regard). b) fugitive. it is coloured with PY1 highly fugitive pigment (i use their raw sienna instead, with addition of indian yellow, when needed). c) yellow ochre by other brands just looks nicer (might be because of point a). besides that, in WN palette are some "buy fresh, paint fast" colours, that do get unusable with time. quite fast in fact. like prussian blue, in a matter of couple of years becomes unusable, but nice while still fresh though. mars brown nice colour, but it gets gel-like with time. hope that helps.

[@meldixon1918]

IAmBread I’ve heard some people say they don’t enjoy the Earth Tones in this brand but I have noticed the yellow ochre being horrible. Maybe it’s just the tube version for whatever reason? Jane Blundell has a blog post about this brand that might be helpful to you!

[@arvindshukla8040]

[@Gothikah]

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!!! I really enjoy my 2 White Nights sets :D I wanted a cheaper pallet than my Sennelier for sketching and stuff, and these are just perfect! In the Netherlands they costs only slightly more than W&N Cotman and for the amount of paint and quality I really prefer these over the slightly cheaper W&N

[@pisces796]

I love how the painting turned out❤️

[@RobinT346]

This piece is lovely. I love faintly sci-fi and surrielist pieces like this and it works so well with your soft natural style

[@itsteganyay]

It seems like White Nights uses some less common, possibly less lightfast pigments in their paints, though that's not necessarily a bad thing, and that PG8 is lovely to look at! I really love this painting as well! The background texture is really nice, and I love that you added a bit of gouache to the black lines, I think it really made them a more integrated part of the portrait. I personally struggle with wanting darker richer colors in my paintings, and so I overwork them, adding way too many layers until I lose that lovely glow that watercolors offer. I honestly think you strike a really good balance. Great job, and thank you for the video :) Oh! And happy birthday!! Many happy returns :)

[@michaelwilton4545]

This piece is really beautiful. You are such a great artist and I love all the work I have seen you post. Thank you.

I just bought the premade set (36 colours) because they were on sale (think: very very much on sale) and I'm glad with your review that I saw, back in August. I also use the double taping technique that I learned here. Love it.

[@misstees1778]

i love white nights for their opacity but i like that you showcase the transparencies of these paints. 💟

[@cazumbandoartmaddy1728]

I purchased a 24 set back then in AliExpress, but I might purchase some individual pans from your selection, I do love these colours a lot! Also I think every Naples yellow must be opaque, it's usually like this, I have one van Gogh tube and it's probably mixed in with white.

[@vani7493]

This feeling of being over a piece if it takes too long and feeling no longer connected to it is so relatable! I get that a lot, if I invest too much time in a drawing

[@JanJan-qo1yx]

Great review and happy birthday (it's actually also my birthday in a few days :)). To get out of the habit of those thin transparent layers you could try kind of a challenge where you try to get the values (or generally the colors) down in only 2 or 3 layers, so that you HAVE to use darker and more bold colors. Just a suggestion :>

Yarka were the first watercolors I ever bought; Jerry's had a great deal (and I think the deal's still on, month's later!). I find that I struggle a bit to mix them with other brands like Sennelier and Holbein. They are sticky af, and don't travel as well - that said, I live in a horrendously humid region, so that might be a big factor. They're not my first choice, but I haven't been disappointed with my purchase. They're a very economical starting point. :)

[@punkassnance]

I've been waiting for this for some time now. I got my first somewhat good quality watercolors this year and they were the white nights set, i really enjoy working with them, i find them amazing in layering. I don't have much experience in watercolors in general, but I enjoy a lot of the colors in the 24 set, however I miss some colors, especially the browns, I don't find them satisfying enough. But that might be me. I enjoyed your review and the paintings. Happybirthday

For anyone else looking for these, Blick has them under the Yarka St. Petersburg professional watercolor pans as open stock. Same brand, different name, according to the Jackson's website. Jacksons has better selection though, especially for the metallics. I haven't ordered from Jackson's so I don't know if the shipping to the US would offset the lower price on their website. Blicks is definitely higher per pan.

I have them the 24 Set and I gut them to Beginn with and the set has everything you need, except a white, which you could just pick up or use it without, which I did for years. They lastet me already 5 years and I use them a lot. It is more than you need and if you one day would like to expand the 24 set cones in a 36 palette and if you live in Europe you can buy them online individually in selected stores. Their a bit more pricey than in Russia, but you also don’t have to pay shipping and have them in 2-3 days

I am not at the skill level in watercolors where I need a professional set so I still use Cotman, Koi and my Gansi set along with a lot of tubes I have from a friend.

I wonder, why people like them, when painting something special or more than just scatches is rather hard with those? so staining and hard to control. I must say, I am not happy hawing these. they now lay around, and every now and then, I pull it out just for a single colour to experiment or to try before getting the tube of a better brand. or for painting small post cards, which I rarely do. hm. I am still curious, on if people stick with those, after they tried other ones. and I wonder, why. the colours might be vibrant. but when painting with them is so hard..?

At art shop I work at now (in Poland) they are quite popular :) I haven't tried them yet myself but I am willing to give them a try. What other watercolors would you recommend?
