They are simply amazing paints. I purchased "Rae's Bloom" which was made specifically for Helen "Rae" Campbell who has a watercolor channel on RU-vid. The granulation on some of the paints is so beautiful. I'm new still with watercolor and have purchased many brands like Daniel Smith and Winsor and Newton which most professional folks say are great paints and they are, but handmade watercolors are so personal and made with such specific care. I have many of the colors you mention. I absolutely LOVE my set.
Ooh I don't think I've come across her channel. Thank you for getting her on my radar; I'll check out her channel. I haven't tried Rae's Bloom but certainly will. Ooh I love Daniel Smith paints. I started with Winsor and Newton, but quickly grew to love DS. I've also been exploring Holbein Japanese made watercolors and wow, they're lovely. There's just so many lovely colors and brands, but I agree, there's something extra special about homemade and earthy pigments. I'm so glad you have many of them and love them. So good to hear! Thank you for watching and sharing with me, Araya :)
Thank you so much for the mentions and for your kind comments on my channel/art/colours! I've subscribed to your channel too and look forward to watching more of your videos. This was so relaxing and it was very interesting to hear your thoughts on each colour. Beautiful swatching!
Absolutely! And I'm honored :) I hope you like moody forest landscapes... haha It's been nice throwing this video into the mix, and I'm genuinely surprised how many people have enjoyed it. It's been a wonderful creative experience. Who knew describing colors would be such a challenge for me. It's one thing to paint and love the colors, but another to describe them and how they make you feel to an audience. I look forward to sprinkling in more videos like this. Thank you Natasha!
@@SuzWarren Yeah.. I'm all for small independent folks trying to sell some watercolor paints as a side gig... probably brings them joy and a few extra spending dollars if they can get someone to buy them. But...hard to purchase when I can get artist grade (and known quality) paints at 1/2 the price! Insanity....
Love learning about new paint colors and especially small business. BEAUTIFUL COLORS ❤!!! I get tired of all the same manufacturers. Thank you So Much 😊
Watching your color swatching of these watercolors, beautiful !, you mention rhubarb, is a sweet sugary fruit for pies, my dad used to grow when I was a little girl. Rhubarb, is the shape of stalks in red/green that I recall.
i've had rhubarb, :) had a plant in our garden when i was a kid. always had stewed rhubarb with custard or in an apple pie. i've even added a couple of plants to our garden now.
Lovely swatches. I know both Natasha Newton and Lilly Moon love deep deep light. And both have made pallets with them. But your the first that really made them look interesting. But on top of my wishlist is A Gallo then theese may come lager….
Ooh I haven’t tried the A Gallo paints yet. Let me know what you think of them when you get your hands on some. I love both those channels. I’ve recently been enjoying all the swatching videos.
@@JackiePeacock I just received my order yesterday from A. Gallo and they are definitely different from ordinary paints I have. I got the earth 6 and a custom palette and they're so nice. Some kinda reminds me of the super granulating ones from schmincke.
That’s a great question and I forgot to mention that! Here’s the link to their colors and at the bottom they talk about the light-fastness. deepdeeplight.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/DeepDepLight-catalogue-2024.pdf
I love the look of these paints and follow Natasha Newton's RU-vid channel - she uses these paints, and others, for her stunning work and I only wish I had sufficient funds to buy some of my own.
I'm so glad you follow Natasha too. She has some beautiful color selections. And I hear. Paint can be quite expensive. I hope you can eventually get your hands on some when the time is right.
I agree, I’ve sorta stopped watching some of the channels who use Deep Deep Light. I have plenty of Daniel Smith, Schminke, Sennelier, Qor, etc. but these handmade paints are beyond my budget. Handmade paints on Etsy don’t even come close to DDL’s price. Even with the discount code after shipping, it’s $15 for a half pan. I could buy a few pans if I REALLY wanted to but I genuinely feel like they’re overpriced & overhyped.
Hi Jackie, I recently purchased two sets that Natasha Newton put together for deep deep light and as expensive as they are they are so so worth it and I can’t wait to get one more 15 colour set to finish my collection. I absolutely love their paints they are amazing and I prefer them so much more than the mass produced watercolours on the market. I loved this swatching such beautiful colours. The ladies were so lovely to deal with they kept me informed on delivery and were so kind. xxx
😃👍 Excellent video, Jackie, and so relaxing to watch and listen to! Amazing colours by Deep Deep Light: those Latvian ladies are definitely creating magic! 😍 And those pebble swatches are fantastic, some even look like gemstones! (Definitely checking out Natasha Newton's channel 👌😁). 😊 It is so great to see a content creator sharing their love for another creator's content, and also supporting a small business. Well done, Jackie!👍Never had rhubarb (it is quite exotic in Spain 😉), but I've read it's really good and healthy. Oh, and about nighttime landscapes, I'm totally in favour! 😉👍Thank you so much, Jackie, and have a lovely weekend!! 🙏🥰🤗
Thank you so so much for watching and spending so much time with me! Swatching rocks has been so nice. Natasha does these beautiful pebbles which is what inspired me to paint rocks. I hope you enjoy her channel as much as me. And there's enough room for us all. Lots of people out there in the world ;) I hope you get to try it one day. Me too, since I've yet to have it. I hear it's pretty good. Thanks for the feedback on nighttime scenes!
😅 Jackie, I just realised that I mixed up words and said pebbles instead of rocks! 🤭 And there is, indeed, a substantial difference! 😂 Typical non-native speaker mistake! Again, thank you so much, and can't wait to see your next video! 😉🤗
I made it to the end! I found Natasha’s channel yesterday and then your channel popped up today. I find your voice very relaxing and soothing. Watching you and Natasha swatch helps me pick up some techniques, too, as a new painter.
@DG-il5jq The shipping didn’t take long at all. I’m based in the U.S. and they’re in Northern Europe so I was surprised how fast it was. Right now most of Northern Europe is celebrating Midsummer and they won’t ship their items out until June 27th. 🤍 If you reach out to them they are wonderful at responding to any questions.
You did great ~ it was better after you calmed down and quit trying so hard. Just be yourself and say what’s in your heart instead of what is scripted. I could tell that you were really nervous. It will get easier! I enjoyed watching!
🌲🤍 thank you Lily! Definitely want to provide my own aesthetic and vibe that brings me calm, and so glad I can share that with others and they can feel it too.
love Deep Deep Light ever since I saw them featured on Lily Moon and Natasha Newton's channels. Gorgeous and so great they have a "build a custom palette" feature that doesn't add an extra charge to do so. Very nice handmade watercolor company to work with such a beautiful unique range of colors! Solstice Fern, Forest Pigeon, Gerda's Pink, and Prickly Pear...stunning! i need to try Juniper! Have had strawberry rhubarb pie, its tart and sweet.
Love that! I've been following Natasha for a long time now, and recently discovered Lily Moon! I love her swatching and sketchbook aesthetic. Right?! I think having a custom palette is such a great and personalized idea. Juniper is such a good one.
Thanks for this video. I’ve been trying to choose some Deep Deep Light colors as a treat for myself. It’s been so hard to decide, but your swatching helped me make my final choices!
Haha thank you! I struggled a bit on my wording, but hopefully moving forward with color description I'll be a bit better. Thank you for leaving a comment and watching. I appreciate your time!
Oh you did?! Love that. I need to try it. Seems like a winner for many. Thank you for leaving a comment and for spending so much time with me. Quite a long video.
What a well done swatching video of simply gorgeous paints! We had a well established rhubarb patch when I was a little girl. We’d go outside with a little bowl of sugar, snap off a stalk of tart rhubarb and dip the end into the sugar. Grandma was known for her strawberry rhubarb pies.
Love your video! These watercolors look gorgeous! I will buy some when I have the funds. I use crystals in energy work plus I have a passion for jewelry and gemstones. So, I was wondering if you could make your fantastic rock swatch available as a printout to use for whatever paints people already have. Even if you didnt want to offer it as a freebie, I would be willing to pay for it if offered. I hope you wil consider it. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much, Shauna! Hmm I suppose it would be a pretty print. I'll have to think about that. Maybe a free download would be nice. Thank you for the interest and the idea. If you haven't signed up for my newsletter, this is where I would post things like this first.
Hi Love your video am doing done sketching of mushrooms whilst listening to and watching this. I have had rhubarb and it’s delicious, rhubarb crumble, pie or fool are all yummy. It has a tart flavour so cook with sweetner or fruit juice. 😊
That sounds delicious! Thank you so much. 🌲🤍 I’ve been painting a lot of mushrooms lately. They are hard haha not something I ever paint. Love them though.
I selected a bunch of random colors, and then their team chose the rest. But I really love their Deep Forest, Nature by Nature, and Jay and Juniper sets. So pretty. You can see these online to get a feel for the color combinations.
Fun relaxing video. I love relaxing talking in the background people can mute if they want! I too mercilessly edit out all ‘ummms’. The rock paintings are beautiful I’d love to try these paints someday!
I've been wanting to try these! I recently went on a search for excellent handmade watercolors and two stand out to me, DDL being one and Essee the other. I've already collected 3 different palettes from Essee and LOVE them. I know DDL is going to impress me as well.
I haven't experienced Essee paints, but have seen them and they look beautiful. DDL has been wonderful, especially if you love granulation. I hope you get to experience these paints and love them as much as I do.
I really like these long relaxing swatching videos including your desciptions of your impression of these gorgeous colours, so thank you so much for your efforts! I discovered DDL last year and have ordered twice from them - all their handmade colours are so special and kind of magical. I really adore them and the two owners are so nice as well. They answered all my questions so personally and lovely. So I really like to save up to get these special source of long lasting joy! 🎨❤️ By the way I also love rhubarb…😉
Thank you for the kind comment and so glad you like the paints, too. I know they are a treat, but what a treat they are! Do you have specific colors that are your favorite?
Oh no I'd hate to be accused of copying. I've been painting rocks for years, but was very much inspired because of Natasha and her lovely pebble swatching videos. I hope I gave enough credit to Natasha because she certainly inspired me. It's a wonderful and different way of showing off colors. My apologies if I offended you. I very much respect others ideas, views, and their art.
