Last summer, I decided to take a trip around Europe, and visited four countries: France, Scotland, England, and Italy. I was so excited to visit these places, and while I was there, I couldn't resist the urge to pick up some art supplies to bring home with me.
I'm sure you can understand why - I find that having the right art materials makes creating something so much more enjoyable! So, I want to share with you what I got during my travels - a selection of paints, a sketchbook, and paint pigments, all of which will help you bring your artistic visions to life.
I was lucky enough to find a beautiful watercolor set and accompanying travelogue sketchbook from the renowned Charvin in Paris, France. I had heard of Charvin's reputation for superior quality art supplies and was thrilled to find the perfect watercolor set. The 12 vivid colors in the set really bring my paintings to life and the sketchbook is perfect for capturing all of my experiences as I travel. I am so pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend Charvin to any aspiring artist.
My travels to Venice, Italy were nothing short of amazing. I was enchanted by the city's unique beauty and remarkable architecture. During my stay, I came across a store called Arcobelano, a local art supply store, and decided to pick up some pigments. The array of vibrant colors I found was extraordinary, and I immediately knew that I had to bring some of them home with me. I am excited to see how I will incorporate these beautiful hues into my upcoming artwork. I'm certain that they will bring a unique touch and flair to my work.
I also picked up some unique souvenirs during my trip, like enamel pins and postcards from The Louvre, The d’Orsay, and British Museum. Each item serves as a reminder of the incredible experiences I had during my time away. From admiring the famous works of art at The Louvre to wandering the galleries of the d’Orsay and the British Museum, this collection of souvenirs will always remind me of my travels. I'm so glad I took home a piece of each museum for my own personal collection; it's a great way to remember my trip and the amazing experiences I had.
I had an amazing time on my Europe trip, and I'm so glad I was able to pick up some amazing art supplies. I'm already excited to start creating new artwork with them!
A special thanks to my cousin Logan Carroll for his help in editing this video!

What an awesome haul c: You can try a 1:1 ratio with your pigments and your glycerin/ gum arabic, you can also try adding honey to your mixture. A paint muller and a glass surface to work on would also work better than the ceramic plate and pallet knife. When you let your paints dry in the pans, if they fall out, you can put some gum arabic under to adhere it to your half pan.

I learned only 2-3 drops of glycerin otherwise it takes ages or could never dry

I also don’t use any water in my mixture

probably a paint muller would make it a lot easier - you would be able to grind the pigment a lot finer and sometimes that changes the colour depending on how fine you grind it!

A safety thing - wear a mask when you are mixing your paints - some of the pigments can be a bit toxic.

The pigments you chose are beautiful! It was very interesting to watch you making watercolors as a beginner. I have never made watercolors but I have thought about it. Happy painting using your very own watercolors.

I found the French shop quite expensive. You can get great quality for half that money anywhere in Europe. But the Venetian store... *I need this* I might travel there just to buy a set or two. 🤩

Charvin was expensive, I will admit, but there weren't a lot of other shops that were near the sites we planned to visit and I wanted art supplies that were specifically made in France. And I would absolutely recommend visiting the store in Venice!

@@allisonsedar Sennelier, Rafael, Isabey. I went to Sennelier's factory or whatever it's called. They show you how they make their pigments and the hives where they make honey to bind their watercolours, their history, their papers, etc. It's quite interesting. Most of the stores I've found while travelling were by chance, and they were rather small so I admit I'm not the best for recommendations.

I love the little pigment collection, so beautiful and such love put into the packaging! I believe that the recipe the store owner gave you might have been for dry gum arabic not the already hydrated version (in the bottle) so that may be why the paint was a little liquidy :) I have a recipe and easy tutorial if you want to learn more over on my channel, but you are correct that each pigment mixes differently, some need more binder, some need less - honey and glycerin will really help with the cracking and rewetting. I am so excited for you to keep on playing with your pigments, it is really fun and rewarding :) Thanks for sharing 💕
@allisonsedar
@allisonsedar Год назад
Ohh that makes sense, that’s probably why it said to add water! I will definitely check out your channel so I can learn more for my next crack at it. I am going to get a mulling plate soon at another person’s recommendation so I should be able to try again soon!
@Wendybogmans

You need a muller for watercolors , and I advice to make the binder not to thin.
@Ddalgiichigo
@Ddalgiichigo Год назад
I definitely think the pigments were brittle because they were so liquidy, when I mix paints I don’t use water I use 1:1 gum Arabic and pigment with 2 small drops of glycerin per pan they dry quicker that way and don’t crack as much. Your watercolours are still very useable though! I need to go to this shop when I visit
@Ddalgiichigo
@Ddalgiichigo Год назад
Also if you ever visit Italy again I suggest a shop in Florence called zecchi

Thanks for the suggestion! Being a complete newb I didn't realize that the instructions probably meant to use dry gum arabic mixed with water. Now I'll know and I can either use less or pick up some dry gum arabic for next time :)

Cheap Joe’s Art Supply Carrie’s the French Charvin line of paints, if I remember correctly. You might be able to add to what you purchased while in France!

You have to mull them for quite a while or they will end up grainy
