I used to love this brand and I spent a lot of time praising them to artist friends and money on their products (more than I should have lol) until I posted on Instagram some stories with lightfastness tests results that showed many of their colours faded dramatically in 2-3 months.
They blocked me.
I'm unable to view their profile on insta now and unable to tag them if I post art made with their products.
I guess they should block the sun.

It saddened me. I stopped using their paints and brushes even though I really loved them. But I can't find joy when holding them anymore.
I got upset and even if it's petty, I called them out (although politely) on this unprofessional move.

They should simply update the lightfastness information and stop claiming they have excellent lightfastness. People still buy fugitive paints. Lying is not a good idea.

The Beam paints are so beautifully packaged, so elegant somehow. But..... It seems like you get so little actual product. I've not seen them in real life, only in videos but the dots look tiny.

that rectangle brush is so satisfying 😩

Your skill with values never ceases to impress me. 💜

I love how you layer! By the time you get done, there’s always this resounding glow to your works! I’m sure good paints play a part in it too!

I absolutely adore Beam Paints. Best quality paints I’ve ever used, bar none.

That purple you put in the last painting is just gorgeous. These paints are beautiful.

I just love Beam paints! I only have two colors - the shiny red that came in their little turtle palette, and Valentine red. It's so hard not to hoard their paints like a greedy dragon lady!!!

If I remember correctly, they've also reformulated the more opaque colors to be easier to rewet now too! Especially peach and robins egg blue. They're so lovely to work with after I got the new formula.

I learn a new brand from you.  Thank you for this sharing. 🙏

Works are so soft and pastel. It realy inpsired me a lot. And I miss you 🥺

many of your paintings feel like memories to me especially the 3 in this video

Learn so much from the products on your videos and the colors they produce thanks ❤

I like color selection!

I love all the paintings but the one in the middle is my favorite. The eyes are magnificent. Thank you for the demonstration of Beam paints. I just ordered a small palette.

aaa yay an upload :D

the first layer is so angelic, i love how translucent and delicate your paintings are!!

that looks soooooo pretty

Love those three paintings, absolutely beautiful !
