All the beautiful colors in my collection that I found too jarring on paper now have a purpose. Thank you so much for this lovely, peaceful exploration
Great idea making swatches of your colors for a wheel. I have mine in clear sheets in a binder. I’ll swatch again and make a wheel of my round palette colors! I’m surprised you’re not a Daniel Smith Ambassador, yet……
Oh thank you for this - I am in love with Daniel Smith paints and most of the colours on my palette are by them. Swatching your own colours into a colour wheel is such a great tool for colour mixing and to getting to know your paints better. I have mine above my desk and I constantly refer to it. Have fun!
Granulation is a textural effect - granulating paints have pigment particles (like sediment) that do not dissolve in water but instead settle on the surface of the paper. Sometimes a watercolour wash has the same texture as leather - this is one of the examples of granulation.
