What is the purpose of the gauze? Mimicking rough paper? Tx,

That is such a beautiful palette! It contains so many favourite colors of mine <3

Oh you are such a nice person! Would love to read/see/hear more of your passions or thoughts, whatever they are at the moment!

Hey Oto, I just found your channel very recently and would be really happy to see more of your content! Hope you are well and thriving!

I just stumbled upon your channel very recently, it is so awesome and helpful for me as a beginner! However, since today I can't open your website anymore. 😢 I hope, it is just temporary? I would love to explore that more!

Thank you for great review and demo....as always.

Hello. May I please ask where you got those swatching pages?

Are you no longer on Patreon?

Awesome! When I went to an IKEA a few years ago one of their showroom wardrobes had a light that came on only when you opened the door, like a refrigerator 🤯 I don't think it was the cheapest light but since you're saving so much on the cabinet.... 😊

I have also experienced the issue of white speckles appearing when using darker paints on Arches paper. However, the Arches paper is widely regarded as the best by many people, so it was easy to assume the problem with the paints itself rather than the paper. Baohong paper is very good for testing colors, but the most accurate way would be to test the colors on the actual paper people will be using. Additionally, Dr Oto has a significant influence on paint evaluations. Due to a previous video review for Gold Mission paints, many people now have a misguided prejudice against Gold Mission. It would be good to officially correct this.

After wetting and drying the whole paper, you'll notice that its length and width has changed by a millimeter. That's the reason why the paper buckles.

I think you are a hypocrit.

Thank you for sharing, I have been looking to buy metallic watercolours and these for me are just perfect with the right mixture of colours, I have now ordered a set and look forward to using them 🙏🏻

This video is amazing! Thank you so much! I’m a huge fan of the drawing gum because it’s latex-free, unlike the majority of masking fluid. I’m allergic to latex, so have avoided masking fluid for years despite loving the effects it has on watercolor. Since finding the drawing gum, I’ve been going nuts with it! No more worrying about a painting killing me!

How is it that there is no pigment information on the DS website for this color? No Pigment identification number?

I see this is 2 years old, but I just wanted to say that your handwriting is gorgeous!

Have you seen the etchrmini palette it look sperfect for you colour wheels it has 19 wells and a lid12 wells are arranged in a circle and is available from Jackson’s in the uk

Layers is my favourite

I have a couple DaVinci 37ml tubes of Manganese Blue dried in the tubes. Do you know what would be the best way to reconstitute them? I do have some ox gall and gum Arabic on hand, but I'd like to get it right on the first try. The paint rattles around inside the tube like a maraca. Any advice would help so I don't ruin what little I have.

One of my favorite brands, except for their Mineral Violet (PV 16), which has inexplicably hardened like a stone, while the rest of the tubes remain fresh and usable.

This video is truly timeless and I am so grateful for it. My question is in relation to "cool Yellow". In your previous video you added it outside of the colour wheel so does that mean it is no longer needed, when mixing colours? @Dr.OtoKano

Perfect series for me I am looking to buy the 24 tube set by qor for my birthday present to myself next month

These are so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much❤

Missing you Oto. I hope you are okay and doing well. ❤

Why arent people supporting White Nights because of politics???

Do you need.to.factor in the paper grain?

Thank you so much for this! I've been trying to find a brush that has an even load release when painting leaves and this Heritage is the "Golden Ticket" I've bought SO many brushes and actually had a #8 heritage that I had bought in the beginning of my water color journey and for some reason it got put with my rejects. I've been using Escoda Perla, but they are much more expensive here in California. So tonight I tried the Heritage again because of your video! Such a nice brush! I see why it's one of your favorites. I know this video is 2 years old but if you see this and you still need any of these, let me know. I can easily get them. They even have them at the local art store near me (Art Supply Warehouse)

Very well done

I went with the hansa yellows as the 110 did not rate well in my Wilcox book. My copy was published in 1991, before Daniel Smith opened business. Things may have changed since then. I wish there was a current issue of the book, but we have the internet now. The author cautioned then about the differences between watercolors pigment and printers ink. Considering the variables in screens I would still prefer print.

I have just accidentally ordered quin pink rather than rose. So came here to look at the difference.

This chart and your work is so perfect, thank you for sharing 🩷 I love primateks

Thanks for all the work especially behind scenes btw its helped with many decisions and saved money. Much appreciated

Question probably answered somewhere. Are you a real doctor or PHD in something ?

it was driving me crazy to figure out how to mix burnt umber! Your videos are just an endless resource of such great, applicable information!❤

Your handwriting is so neat, it almost looks printed! I just love the background music in your videos, and having your comforting voice narrate! Just love your videos so much❤

What a gorgeous job you did! 🎉. Holbein released 24 new granulating colours, can you do the same experiment? 😊

Thank you so much.

Ich liebe Qinacridone Magenta von Qor, eben weil es so schlecht abzulösen ist. Bisher gab es wesentlich weniger Schwierigkeiten mit Wasserkontrolle als hier angedeutet. Da sich das Pigment gerne explosionsartig in nasse Flächen verteilt und dabei Farben anderer Marken verdrängt, bin ich allerdings mittlerweile recht vorsichtig, wenn ich es einsetze. An und für sich liebe ich diese Farbe unheimlich.

Hi - just found your videos. Question -- why is Schminke Ultramarine Violet better to use in your 12 color wheel as complementary to yellow? Does the Schminke's Ultra Violet apply to Daniel Smith Hansa Yellow light or DS Hansa Yellow Med too?

Brilliant tests. Thank you.

Rewatching this video and I'm so torn between Holbein and Da Vinci. D.V is so pigmented but Holbein is so smooth! Did you ever end up finding a perfect Burnt Umber?

Hi...what is your recommendation for best paper for granulating and good color?

How does one contact M Graham ? I have had no success. I received a tube (15ml) of Cobalt Violet that appeared to be just honey with no pigment, contacted Jerry's and they sent a replacement tube which disappointingly turned out to be the same. I have 7 other M Graham colors I regularly use. Any advice?

Thanks!! I use the Alex drawer system, which can hold half sheets. The drawers are 42 x 65 cm inside, the whole piece is 67 x 66 x 48 cm. I put a printer on top. It's the closest to a "proper" architectural chest of drawers. It comes with wheels, but you can replace with legs. You caneven stack 2 if you need more storage. Your PAx solutionsoynds great...I wish they mad a version which wasn't as tall. Itvworks perfectly for you though! Hope you are doing well.

First of all, thank you for this. Very useful. It seems the Epson WorkForce WF-7210 is no longer available for sale. Are there alternative printers that would work?

For oceans, cascade green looks amazing!

Hi can i ask if you had to choose between DS nepthemide mroon and WN permeant mauve. Which would you choose. I have been watching some of your videos and would like to add some of the colours these look very similar.

No, do not change the name. “Watercolor Database” is exactly that; people will locate it quickly. It’s perfect.
