This is so beautiful! I'm limited to using kuretake and finding keepings gansai due to export not existing, but it's so beautiful to see all these high end sets available :) love the video.
Thank you. This video helps me to realize that I need to have a pallet of color like this, instead of remember the name and the exact shade of color I need. I don’t paint a lot, so when it time to paint, I totally forget the shade of color I want. Gansai colors are really pretty and giving you a calm, peaceful feeling.
This was an excellent demonstration. Some of the colors were a little surprising as soon as water was applied. And thank you for putting the colors names in romaji as well. We have all seen your beautiful art so I’m sure no one will be judging you harshly for your letters. 😁
These colors are so vibrant and they dilute with water so beautifully. My favorite has to be Byakuroku, that shade of bright turquoise/teal is what I live for!
What beautiful colors! Is there a key difference between gansai paint and gouache or watercolor? The binder these paints use seem so much more reactive then the traditional gum Arabic used in watercolors
"I'm actually a pain in the ass and don't like to make color charts." Hahahahaha, I rather enjoy the process, it's relaxing! These colors are so beautiful~ ✨
The design of the box is very beautiful, I like the color wooden box. I haven't come into contact with this product, but I believe it will have a mild, soothing scent. I will continue to follow you and look forward to you using this color box for a painting soon.
as always so relaxing! also I like the fact how different by structure the paints are from the ones european manufacturers do, and the colours are also kinda different. thanks for the review, now I'm waiting for your next video with the art 😍
I learned quite a bit from this video, thank you for posting it. I have been learning a few things on the side about illustration, and I do believe that your work is some of the prettiest stuff being done these days. I do hope that you will continue drawing and painting those amazing, pictures. I also, once again, would love to see how you would illustrate a complete set of Tarot card. With 78 images, you would be quite busy for a long while, but the results would be breathtaking, I honestly believe that. Can't wait for the next video. Thanks again.
Thank you! I really enjoyed the pretty colors and it was really interesting to hear your thoughts on the colors and their cultural associations and meanings. Akasi? The bright, light blue with a hint of green? In the US we often call that turquoise, after a gemstone of the same color. Thanks for sharing so many pretty things and such interesting info. 💖
色の名前を日本語で教えてくれてありがとう！非常に役立ちます。作成を続けてください！What a beautiful set of paints. I just got my first set of Kuretake paints and I can't wait to try them. Thank you so much for sharing this video.
Really great and informative video!!😁 I also sometimes use the set i have, but its the standart 48 color set, gansai tambi, so i dont know if theyre identical to the one in this video even if they have the same name but propably yes, this is only a limited edition box no? Some colors are really beautiful and i have a few i almost always use when using watercolors😅 but there are also a few i had really problems at the start because they are different compared to normal watercolors with arabic gum😔 so i had to research online what all the colors are and can do good or not, but i wish at that time there was a video like yours! That realy would have helped me! Thats why i think this video is really great, and because many people use the kuretake gansai colors, there will be many people happy about this video and the information!😁
This paints is not made of Kuretake. I only have Gansai Tambi glitter and pearl colors. I think that many overseas painters use Gansai Tanbi, so maybe someday I will buy it and try it 😊
@@kaitekiart7666 that would also be great to watch, you trying them😁 hehe i totally though they also were from kuretake because they have the same big size and form and i have seen them in this style until now only from kuretake😅 but well that brand is the only thing in europe we can buy normal in a store if its about japanese or traditional japanese watercolors🥲
Did I hear that the set was for the 270th anniversary of the paint manufacturer. No wonder, since Ueba Esou is located in Kyoto, where 'previous war' sometimes refers to Onin War (1467 - 1477), not the 2nd World War.
I've been painting for 10+ years and never made a color chart bc Im very lazy. But if you find strength to make color charts then I will try to work hard too!
Hi , I've looked to the link you provided in a comment below , but I am a little confuse . Are they for paint the face ? or they are for painting on the paper ( refer about normal painting ) ? They are soo beautiful.
It could be a bit confusing :-) When you say gansai (顔彩), it means water colour for painting, and ganryo(顔料) means pigments in general. My wild guess is that the character gan(顔, kao meaning face) is used here because same pigments are used for cosmetics and water colours.
@@aki0yk465 , hi, I've bought them and they are watercolors ( don't know exactly if they are like for Japanese painting with animal glue or like classic painting with arabic gum)
I have the notion that it would be better to spray in advance the paints in order to protect the tip of your brush. What is the lightfastness of these colours. Have you ever tested them?
The pigments they use are the same as those used in traditional Japanese paintings and are relatively light resistant. But I think it depends on the color.
@@kaitekiart7666 Thank you for the immediate reply. Your channel is great and I've learned a lot about nihonga painting technique from your tutorials. In fact I used some of these techniques on my watercolors as for example to mount the paper on a panel and use gelatin glue to dissolve regular watercolours in order to make them somewhat more waterproof. I didn't use though the traditional Japanese art materials that you use on your videos because it is almost impossible to get them here. Greetings from Athens Greece :)
kaiteki ART Thank you for providing the link anyways! It’s a little disappointing they don’t sell it in my country, but what can I do about it, right? Great video! I love your channel! Thanks again! :)
I want to ask does gansai counted as watercolors? I have also gansai set the color [Ao Kin] is a color hard to melt any suggestion to soften the paint?
Thank you so much for uploading this video. I really liked it and found it very useful. Regarding Beni, do you know whether Ueba Esou uses genuine safflower to make them? Do you have Saiun Do paints? If you do, may you please swatch them? Thanks again for the video :-)
At 7:06 you are testing Akashu colour, and at 8:19 you need to test Beni colour, but it looks like you dipped your brush in Akashu again. Is it a mistake, or did I misunderstand?
