Usva🌒 I am super happy with this painting I did with the Gansai Tambi Graphite Colors from Kuretake. I rarely do really toned down color palettes but I definitely should do them more often. In fact this palette had just the perfect set of color tones for this piece. ‘Usva’ is Finnish for haze or mist. 🤍

I have painted a giant thing, and it’s going to hang in my college library

It’s wild to look back at my first attempt at trees a year ago and remember how nervous I was about watercolor

Linktober Day 28: Light/Sparkle/Bright. Marin from Links Awakening on the sparkling beach.

Not the most obvious choice for this prompt but I wanted to use a lot of glittery/sparkly watercolours 😁

Process of Usva ✍️ Artwork done in collaboration with Kuretake with their Gansai Tambi Graphite Colors ✨ Really just loving how smooth and nice these colors are, the colors allowed me to make multiple passes of wet on wet technique without the already dry bottom layer shifting. Really happy with this piece!

Today is my birthday! 🎂 Woot! Another year. I've got a little birthday haul to share with you. I'm ready to plan for 2024 with my beautiful new Filofax A5 in Pillarbox Red and my Hobonichi Techo Weeks. I've always wanted a Filofax and this is the most gorgeous red everrr.

I also got some new Posca markers in warm colors, fountain pen ink sampler by Colorverse, and I finally got myself some of the Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors. So excited to swatch all of my new things!

I got this set of Kuretake Gansai Tambi in the fall and day down to play with them in my etchr sketchbook this week. The 100% cotton paper that usually is my best friend, however, felt less useful with these than with my usual watercolours.

which isn't to say i didn't have fun! the colour range of the set is great and the vibrancy is *amazing*.

but i realized i really don't know much about these paints besides the fact that they're at least a little different from Western style watercolours; so i did some googling, and i thought I'd share some highlights:

a great breakdown of the actual chemical differences:

a great demo of how they can be pushed far beyond what you think in terms of layering and vibrancy:

They sound like a product related to traditional paint prep methods for nihonga, which is painted on washi paper :

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihonga

this playlist is a very clear overview of nihonga materials:

these days they seem very strongly associated with etagami, which I'm just starting to research:

In summary, no, they definitely don't work like my Daniel Smith or Mijello or Holbein watercolours, but that's because they're very definitely not the same thing. I'm excited to play around with the paints in combo with different materials and see what they unlock for me!

Also, god, I'm already tempted to get more; they really do have a jewel-like quality, shining in those big flat pans....

(i did rearrange them into this colour wheel order to help me learn the palette, if you noticed the labels in the box no longer line up with the colours)
