Hey guys, this is Emma from Aeobhel here. This week I've got another watercolour
comparison video for you, but instead of testing different price points, I'm gonna
be testing different mediums (in a way) so what we've got here are my Windsor &
Newton watercolour brush markers, and my Windsor & Newton pans. And yeah, I thought
I'd lay them down side by side and see how they compare in terms of vibrancy,
granulation, flow things like... just just to see how they are to work with. Just
like last time I'll only be using the primary colours;
I think that'll help balance the playing field a bit... but yeah! We'll be painting
these two guys. Very groovy. Let's get started!
Hey guys! Alright so before we get into the results I would like to make a quick
little disclaimer: the way that you saw me paint with the watercolor markers is
not the only way to do it (obviously). You can go straight in on the page with the
marker, and then bring your water over and like, bleed it out to get some
cool shading effects... I chose not to do that for a number of reasons. One;
because I was just using the primaries, it's a lot easier for me to just
scribble the colours I need to, on my palette and then mix them together with
water and then bring them over. And b) (Two) just in general that's how I prefer painting...
because you're able to control the amount of water you bring over, the
concentration of the color and it just really it really helps you get a nice
smooth wash as opposed to having a really dark patch bleed out into white.
Umm, that being said it's not the only way to paint, so just keep that in
mind. Getting on to the actual results now, first of all I'll tell you what
colours I used. So for the markers I've got cadmium red hue, I've got
cadmium yellow hue, and I've also got phthalo blue (green shade). Now for the
pans... I'm pretty.. I'm like 95% sure that I used cobalt blue deep, I also used
vermilion hue and transparent yellow. Alright? So I'm pretty sure that those are the
colors I used (going off this chart) it's a little bit hit or miss, but I'm pretty
sure. The first thing I noticed when I look at them like straight away, is the
amount of granulation. Yes, I will put a cap on the amount of times I say "granulation"
I know last time I said it maybe a little bit TOO much, but I think it is
an important aspect of watercolour and it is definitely very visible when you're
comparing these two pieces. So the pans have a lot more granulation (than the markers).
The markers actually have close to none, which, I mean it's not a good OR a bad thing, it
just depends on what you like, and what you're using the paint's for. Even like
on my pallet, you'll see the oranges and the blues separate and like, I think
my palette looks nicer than my actual painting ,it looks really really
pretty! oh I'll put it clip in so you can see what I'm talking about, but yeah. In
the painting the blues and the oranges really did separate and that's most
evident in the darker areas. So you've got like the hair and the shadows of the
face where you see these like nice little streaks of blue and it's it's
quite a cool effect. In the marker drawing, it's like a very clean, straight
wash, which is quite nice like you know if you're doing like a children's
book and you want a more like pastel, neutral, precise colours, the markers are
definitely gonna get you some great results. Even just looking
at these little rainbows I painted, you can see like the way the
colors interact with each other with this rainbow are a lot different to
this rainbow. Here they're like... they still bleed nicely and interact with
each other but here you can see like the different the different pigments like
layering over each other, and they separate into the hills and
valleys of the paper and it just, yeah like it gives you a very nice dimension and
depth to the to the painting. So yeah it's not inherently good or bad (the
level of granulation) you just you need to play around with your paints and it all
depends on what you're using them for. One note I will make about the pans
though is just from my experience, using them with other pieces the different
pans have different properties... and that's something that I don't find with
the markers. I think the markers are all very consistent, the only thing that
changes is the colour, you know what I mean? Like they're all gonna behave the
same way, whereas with the pans (and I would assume the tubes as well, I don't
have the tubes but I mean I think it's a pretty safe assumption) the different
paints have different qualities. So some will granulate more than others, some
won't granulate at all, some like some will blend really really nicely and like
form really harmonious sort of color schemes and
others will separate themselves out. So again, it's a good or a bad thing
It might be a little bit harder for you to find a paint or it like a palette
of colours that you love and are really familiar with, just because it does take
a little bit of like playing around to get used to it but if you want that sort
of depth and that interest in your paintings it's definitely worth (you know)
playing around and and at least experimenting with the pans to see
if that's what you like. You know, don't don't discount it
straight away! Like it, you really do get some cool results. Hey guys I'm just
gonna slide in a quick note about vibrancy and transparency and light
fastness as well perhaps... So looking at the pictures here like just on just this
painting they both appear to have the same level of vibrancy and transparency.
Okay, that is because of how I use them, they're like if you did take these
markers straight onto the page, obviously you would get a much punchier colour, but
just like if you use less water when mixing with the pans, you would also
get a much more saturated colour. So it does depend how you use them, but it's
important to know that they both have that capacity to be quite like bright. I
would say, however, that the markers do lend themselves to be a little bit more
on the transparent side... whereas of course with the pans you do get
variation depending on which pigment you're actually using and there is
a lot more versatility in that aspect. The markers all of them I do find are
quite transparent which is good, like that's what watercolour is, you know... I
mean it is meant to be like a transparent medium and I do think that these colors
are really great if you're looking to get like a like a pastel vibe you know?
If you water it down nicely, you get these light sort of these light little
pops of colour, which are very quite... quite pleasant you know, so yeah! If you were
looking to do more pastel work these are great. If you like they CAN be used for
more saturated, bright color but I I just find that more commonly my work
looks very light... you know I'm I'm not an expert here, I'm just sitting in my
bedroom playing with paint, so sorry if I don't sound very professional but
that's just because I'm not! *haha* I'm not professional at all this is just my
opinion... you know so yeah. Now in terms of light fastness, these markers are (at
least most of them) do have a light fastness rating... I believe yeah these two
have a light fastness rating of two, this one doesn't have one for some reason. I
guess maybe this colour isn't particularly light fast? Or perhaps it
was from a different batch? I wouldn't be too sure the reason why, but um in
general like no matter how light fast your paint "claims to be," if you were
selling an original or displaying it I would always recommend you keep out of
direct sunlight anyway, if you want the painting to last as long as possible
that's just like a basic precaution you should be taking... even getting like UV
filter glass (depending on like how badly you want to maintain the painting) but
yeah like I think the Windsor & Newton obviously each paint again has a
different light fastness rating, yeah my guess would be that the the pans would
be *slightly* more light fast and durable? (But that's just speculation.) I'll
leave an annotation somewhere down below, when I actually do some research. But
yeah I think that's it! If if you have any questions be sure to leave them down
below, and I will do my best to answer them in the comments!
Just because yeah, I probably have forgotten something... yeah I think I'm
done. I think that's it, all right guys I hope you have a lovely week I will see
you next time! Aaaannnd cut!
I hope that this gave you some insight into the different results you can get
with a different Windsor & Newton medium, that being said I love how both of them
turned out I think this is a really groovy little drawing! and yeah I hope
you enjoyed it. Thank you :)
