You might have heard of the Qiaomei watercolours from Paul Rubens. Sadly, at the moment the paints are only available in the UK and USA and Germany. I was lucky enough to be sent a set to try out. I am always looking out for interesting paints to use for urban sketching, so I was keen to give these a go.
QIAOMEI means super beautiful. It features a carefully curated selection of vibrant and lightfast colours that are good for both professional artists and beginners alike.
Features:
24 Vibrant Colours - half pans
Adopted High-Quality Arabic Gum: Made from extra fine Gum Arabic which increases the gloss and transparency of watercolours.
Your Pocket Watercolour: This travel watercolor paint with a palette, then you can take it to go. And there is a small tool inside the watercolour to help you take out each half pan.
The UK price is £34.99 Amazon UK shorturl.at/bdeIL
The US price is $28.99.
Amazon US shorturl.at/hlxKS
DE is €39.99.

This is one of the most thorough, yet concise, paint reviews I’ve ever watched… and I’ve seen a lot! Great job, Liz… thank you.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Wow, thank you!

@essjay2447 24 дня назад

Thanks for detailed review, picked up a set on Amazon for £26.99 as a limited time deal. Now price sitting at £29.99. Currently swatching out paints and colours are lovely.

Glad you think so!

I do like it overall as reviewed. I have several of their collections as well as tubes and cotton paper blocks. But I suspect that with the formation of BRICS we are in for some odd trade times ahead while we find financial footing for international monetization. Not my forte. I would rather just be able to find great art supplies from any country or region, but we live in an interesting time to say the least, eh? Thanks for your thorough review, Liz!

The whole global supply chain has not recovered post pandemic…

@colleenmcchesney1482 10 месяцев назад

These are beautiful colors & the palette/package design is definitely nice. The fact that there’s a huge difference in price for Europe & America bothers me (I’m American) & the fact that it is limited for availability to most artists is also a disappointment. I have friends in other countries that I can’t recommend this to if I like it makes me not want to get it, despite the good quality of the product. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information with us.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

yes, I was disappointed too.

@blueviolets2022 10 месяцев назад

I love that plastic palette. The colors look nice too. Thank you for sharing.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching!

@karendirmish2696 10 месяцев назад

Interesting pan set, like the black and the colors. Price good US, would probably purchase it for travel! It’s easy to purchase new items, part of the Painting pattern! Thanks for such a great teaching video, Karen Dirmish USA

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

glad it was helpful. As a tutor I’m going to say it’s better to paint with what you have, than to shop for more!! 😆

@tavenchristensen3157 10 месяцев назад

Nice colors. I like the Indigo.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Me too!

@mjpete27 10 месяцев назад

Hullo Liz, I do enjoy watching your videos and listening to your reviews! I was quite disappointed with the 24 half pan set of Paul Rubens paints that I purchased. I took out the pans and filled out 24 pans with DaVinci Paints and my wife really liked the pink metal palette! I recently purchased the 24 Lukas Studio palette from Jerry’s Artarama.(located in NC-USA) I got it for $12.99 on super sale and the paint is student grade but I had no plans to use it, but the palette is just amazing! The half pans are smaller like this set but the extruded paint blocks popped right out and I used my DaVinci tubes to fill it right up! I have struggled with some of the metal palettes but most are so similar that you can interchange your pans so easily! I like the travel brush included in the Lucas palette too! Sometimes the plastic palettes are so versatile and worth the breaking in period to “fix” any beading on the mixing areas. I have used toothpaste and some elbow grease on my plastic surfaces. Thank you for sharing this palette with us. Please take care, be safe and enjoy your day!

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

there are some great palettes around to fill yourself. I’ve just got a ‘moisturising’ palette which has a silicone seal.

@binkieinkisham2519 7 месяцев назад

Liz I think your review had had an impact the set is now 27.99 on amazon thank you very much!

@LizChadertonArt 7 месяцев назад

😂I am glad I have an impact on something!!!

@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist 10 месяцев назад

Another fabulous video Liz, love your honesty regarding the U.K. price point. xXx

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

There’s no point doing these if I’m not honest. I want people to be able to trust my opinions even if they don’t always agree with them 😊

@alicereed5368 10 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for always taking your time and all the info you pass along to us. For me personally, i pass on "PR" because they are made in China, but i still enjoy your swatching😊

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing.

@JC-il4or 10 месяцев назад

I bought the 24 professional set last year. I like that most of the colors are single pigment and highly lightfast which you pay for. Color intensity is also good. I get frustrated with lower quality paints, so I try to get better ones- on sale.😊 Good video, and thank you!

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing!

@Grognardlass 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for this, Liz. I am in America, and I agree that the cost differences can’t be easily addressed. I think that artists and our supplies are on the very end of groups that could do anything to effectively reduce prices, or to make them available in other countries. Discontinued pigments come easily to mind, as the automotive and industrial industries pretty much drive pigment availability. I just wonder with all the paints that have come out in the past few years from Paul Ruben alone I wonder what are the true differences between them? Personally I probably have more paint then I may use in my lifetime so I want to spend my dollars where I’ll get the best bang, so to speak. Thanks for helping with this review. It makes a difference 🌺

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Yes artists are small fry compared to the automotive industry! I was simply surprised at the disparity as usually prices are roughly inline when they are imported to both places. Daniel Snith is expensive for us, as it is imported from the US, but that makes sense. Perhaps there are different tariffs

@tracylamarca575 10 месяцев назад

When I saw that this was a review of paint, I told myself "you do NOT need any more supplies, you do NOT need any more supplies" and watched it for the sheer enjoyment of hearing and seeing you try out new things! I love your in depth reviews and how excited you get about new or interesting colors! Thanks, Liz!

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

I do get excited by colours and new things, I cannot lie!

@cryseldaventer8567 10 месяцев назад

@LizChadertonArt An artist can NEVER ever have too much art supplies .

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

😆 I know people who spend more time shopping than painting! There is no such thing as tge perfect brush, perfect palette or perfect paint 😊@@cryseldaventer8567

@cryseldaventer8567 10 месяцев назад

Thank you dear Liz for a very thorough review . As you mentioned that this it is not so available in other countries. I have a similar problem with a set called White Nights (Russia) NOT 😢 available in South Africa. Please do a review if you have a set. Although I am printmaker I have fallen in love with watercolour ❤ expanding my sets and working on canvas with your watercolour ground recipe. Just bought a Mungayo set with my birthday money.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

glad to hear watercolours have you in their grip! unfortunately, due to the war in Ukraine, I would not feel right reviewing Russian watercolours at this time. Rosa watercolours are from Ukraine. I’m told there are very similar. Can you get hold of those?

@cryseldaventer8567 10 месяцев назад

@LizChadertonArt will look into them. YES , I absolutely share your sentiments about Russia. Unfortunately our government is harming our already dreadful economy with their alliance..... Let's just do our art. Thank you for your valuable contributions and reviews. Still struglingling with workable fixing.

@fanatlarge 10 месяцев назад

Your reviews are always interesting. Any plans to review the Rosá Watercolours? They have quite a few granulating colours. I'm trying to get hold of it. Besides being of good quality (as I've heard), it would be nice to support a Ukranian company. Regarding international availability, it may not help Australians, but if it is in one EU country it should be easy to order from another one without customs.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

Good point about the EU. I haven’t used Rosa yet. Will look into it.

@GrandmaMuggy 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for the update. I’m in the United States, but I don’t think I would buy it. Just wondering why they think the price should be so much more in other parts of the world and other parts of the world are getting a little lol it makes me a little leery. Thanks for all you do Liz to help us on our journey.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

I’m really not sure, as I don’t think distribution costs in Europe would be significantly higher. I don’t know.

@annepercival7814 10 месяцев назад

They don’t look like standard half pans…. Surely they are smaller?

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

I think they are and it’s the black box making them look smaller. I’m away from home at the moment, so I’m afraid I can’t check.

@sueallen952 10 месяцев назад

Hi Liz, ive got a few sets of theres, whats different about these to all their other sets?

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

I’m sorry, I don’t have their other paints so I can’t compare.

@annepercival7814 10 месяцев назад

China is nearer the West coast of US..maybe that’s a factor?

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

or perhaps there are tariff and trade agreements. I really don’t know

@Iwanttodrawachicken 10 месяцев назад

Most likely this. Most non perishable products are shipped via the surface like on a boat, trainor truck - usually via boat. It's a far shorter distance from China to North America than to Europe. Ps, thanks for the review. Interesting paints.

@LizChadertonArt 10 месяцев назад

@@Iwanttodrawachicken it’s just I have not noticed such a significant difference in similar goods with other companies. Obvs if goods are manufactured in the US, they end up expensive in Europe and vice versa, but to date Chines products have in my experience been closely priced. Anyway, US gain and our loss on this occasion!
