Rediscovering My Kuretake Watercolors Through Color Swatching

After owning these paints for years, I finally sat down to swatch my Kuretake 48-piece watercolor set alongside the 24-piece Art Nouveau collection. In this first video of my new art journal series, I’m exploring the full range of colors, noticing their transparency, richness, texture, and beautiful metallic finishes, and creating reference charts I can use as I move into the journal-making process. It’s a relaxed, colorful studio session filled with paint exploration, handwritten notes, and plenty of inspiration for the pages to come.

Looking for the supplies I used? I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used materials on one easy-to-update page here: https://2lilowls.com/favorite-supplies-for-mixed-media-abstract-art/

(Some of the links are affiliate links. If you use my link, I get a small commission, which will go toward my art supplies and to support this channel! I appreciate your support!!)

Note: I don’t list individual supply links on every post any longer, simply because keeping up with that for each video or project took more time than I have. Instead, I’ve created one easy-to-browse page where I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used art supplies. It’s always up to date, and a great place to find what I’m working with most often.
