Hi Susan, I actually do put my colors similar to this...but I put my earth tones next to the dark but also in pairs. I love this color wheel it helps a lot.Maria

Hello 🤗 Susan 🌹 Thank you for sharing your Pallette Set Up for your Watercolour Paints and your Colour Chart both were very helpful Hope you have a Wonderful Weekend ☺️🌹💌🖌️🎨📚🦄🤗🩷🩷

Thank you.

I have all of my earthy tones next to my yellow followed my my other spectral colors. My neutrals are with my earth tones when I keep them on my main palette. And if I don’t have space it will be on a small separate palette and use what I have for a grey or anything else that will fall in the grey to black spectrum.

This helps a lot! Thanks! I already have a plastic palette with all of my paints (30) and then a ceramic palette with the colours that I felt that I would use the most often, even though I don’t paint that often or nearly as much as I would like. I didn’t understand why artists put their colours in certain places, so I did ROYGBIV, with my ‘neutrals’ at the end. I’m still learning about warm and cool hues within a pigment, so if I was to do it again, to make it less confusing, I’d probably separate my warms from my cools, so that painting isn’t so intimidating for me.

I’ve learned a lot on RUclips and Pinterest to be honest 😂 I like Jane Blundell’s starter suggestions, which she does in 3 colors, 4 colors, 5 and 6, I believe. The four color one probably suffices for hand picked tubes (py97, po71, pr122, pb15 red shade). I would add lunar black/mars black for texture/granulation and leave ultramarine out for a later discovery. I also like a set by you on Pinterest with ultramarine, rose and lemon yellow and three other colors. That’s a very good non toxic palette to start with. Most limited starter palettes are usually safe. I can’t remember my college tubes but I remember my color wheels had very moody near-black purples. My first professional set was over ten years later after I had quit art for years and that was Daniel Smith essential 6 and I’ve been obsessed with watercolors since then.

❤ I'm very much enjoying your channel! Love your little bio snippets too. I'm empathetic to your autoimmune life - I'm glad you are making the 'most of your life' in such a beautiful way!

Stillman and Birn make a variety of sketchbooks and they are excellent in my opinion, take gouache and Gansai Tambi watercolors beautifully. Etcher is extremely expensive and unless you’re producing high end work, seems a bit much. Also I wonder why a sketchbook (as opposed to WC paper for full finished paintings) needs to be archival?

Hello 🤗 Susan 🌹 Thank you for sharing this Short Video I'm wondering what is the name of the brush that you are using? Enjoy your Weekend ☺️🌹💌🖌️🎨📚🦄🤗🩷🩷

SO UNDERRATED!

Hello 🤗 Susan 🌹 I'm looking forward to seeing your Watercolour Painting in this book you made Very Nice also Congrats 🎉🎉 Enjoy your Weekend ahead ☺️🌹💌🖌️🎨📚🦄🤗🩷🩷

I’d say you are amazing at them.

That was pretty damn nice good work

I think this would make a great Christmas card!

Really interesting. Well-described, too.

Very very interesting!!! Thank you

Great video. Clearly explained and and demonstrated using the updated colour wheel. Really like the fact it shows you where the pigments lie on the wheel. Very helpful. Thank you for sharing.

Wonderful presentation and explanation, Susan! This has led me on a new discovery related to color theory and use. I am relatively new to painting, with watercolor as my passion. Time to go through my paint supplies and analyze my palette.......but more importantly, to PAINT with my palette.!

This is super helpful and informative. And it makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing all this and all the links as well

Wow! I learned SO MUCH from this video! I’d never heard that colors lose saturation when you mix them - but it makes what I’ve been seeing (and didn’t question) make sense! I learned so many things. FANTASTIC!

Ahmmaaayyyziiinngg!! Now it all makes sense. I’ve started my palette following your last palette update. Guess it’s time to review and refresh!

This is EXTREMELY helpful! Thank you! I’m just beginning to learn. I’ve heard of colours having a warm or a cool bias. Out of curiosity, are the yellows, blues and red/magentas a combination of cools and warms or just one or the other? I really love bright paintings too and colours that stand out. I love the second colour wheel that you created with the additional secondary colours to make the brighter tertiary colours, so now you have a wider range. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your palette decisions and thought behind each one. A fun watch! I consider your insights valuable because I love both your style and subjects. I used a slightly different method for my everyday palette because I wanted the properties of certain pigments as much as the color. Thank you again for this video--it's a gem!

I'm curious, how do you go about selecting colors for your palette? (No wrong answers here, of course!)

Thank you so much Susan for explaining color theory so beautifully...this has helped me to better choose and use the Colors in my pallete..

I always enjoy learning artists picks when it comes to colours, brushes etc. I had been eyeing that Monte Amiata, but think I can do with my current yellow/gold one. It is easy for me to fall into temptation of wanting more colours, so I have had to remind myself that more is not always better.

Hello 🤗 Susan Thank you for sharing your Colour Palette Hope you don't mind but I took notes of it I really appreciate your videos Thank you Hope you have a Wonderful Week ☺️🌹💌🖌️🎨📚🦄🤗🩷🩷

Hi Susan!! Love the welcoming intro ;)!

I like your teaching style!

We miss you Susan ❤️

Fascinante y divertida la clase

Beyond beautiful

Your videos are lovely. Which one did you prefer? I think i like the third one best..BUT i really like the differences too. I think development of my own style will come from trying these three...then taking what i believe is the best of each. 😊

Absolutely beautiful

Ive just found your channel. This is second video im seeing. I like your style very much...but i see you haven't made any new videos for a while 😢. Hope you do soon. 😊 There's a flip through of this sketchbook i think...thats the joy of time travel 😊 ...im going to watch that next. Thankyou.

Thankyou, Susan. What a beautiful little painting. The shadows are perfect. Its very hot here in Greece, the shade around that door looks cool and realistic. Lovely 😊

Soooo happy to have found this. I set up my viewfinders last night and knew something wasn't right. I'll be fixing them tonight, you rock!

very good and helpful tutorial! i hope i'll get to try this tutorial soon. thank you so much for showing how u did this wet on wet technique and explained about the process of your thought processes while painting.

the word you are looking for is Gouche, they look and behave like Gouche. This is because Holbein lack dispersion....

thanks I now can get back to reading the book

Thank you for your wonderful video. Would you be happy to tell me the name of the gorgeous colour 3rd in from the left in your palette, the soft salmon/peach colour please?

I didn’t see anyone else asking-what are the bits of tape at the top and bottom seam line of each of the square book pages? I’ve never noticed those before.

Hahnemuhle 250gsm 100% Cotton Sketchbook, is the best quality I've seen. Their Mould made sheets, are second to none in terms of quality. Hahnemuhle makes the best quality papers in my experience, better even compared to Arches,Waterford etc..

Gorgeous paintings ❤❤

0 seconds ago Hi, Can I ask you how you decide what colours to use when painting in the background on the right hand side of your painting to give the imptression of dense background foliage? Many thanks

Hi, Can I ask you how you decide what colours to use when painting in the background in this painting? I have seen people use a similar approach when painting dense background foliage ie in a woodland scene. Many thanks

ECHO "wish you talked us through what you were doing" ...as all my favorite tutorials do! It's so hard to figure out which color you're choosing to put in etc. by just looking. And some of your techniques are hard to hone in on without stopping and starting over and over. I do love what you do and your overall approach to painting, thank you.

Love and thanks.

I’m so confused
