My hubby keeps wondering why I NEED so many different kinds of paints. I just point out that the pallets are significantly smaller than shoe boxes.

@silylily1212 3 years ago

I want to thank you. I suffer from depression and find it near impossible to create when I'm in these phases but watching your videos helps me keep the want to create alive. I'll get through this and be putting color on paper again. In the meantime this is inspiring and comforting.

Poems about you and Regina's look just beautiful

@KimberlyLetsGo 3 years ago

I love handmade paints because you get colors you wouldn't normally see or know about.

@24get24give 3 years ago

ver de gree is the name for the greenish patina that copper gets over time I believe. and I am sure I butchered the spelling [I should've looked it up, sorry]

@eileennoel5672 2 years ago

I’m loving Deep Deep Light from Latvia. Magical stuff.

@gretchenmariee 3 years ago

My favorites are Poems about You (I have a large collection). I’ve been intrigued by the 31 Purplefish. They are difficult to get, but as long as you’re on their email list, she sends out notices as to when she has them available. My other favorite is Pfieffer Art Supply. Hers are quite nice.

I just started making my own watercolors…..it’s been fun…..foraging my own backyard fire pit and wild non edible berries etc in my yard for pigments….it’s fun fun

I just visited a little shop in Sedalia, Missouri. I met the owner who makes hand made watercolors. After talking with her for a while, she painted a little sample for me and sent me home with my own sample to play with. I told her that her paints reminded me of something Kristy Rice would like. Her eyes twinkled and she said Kristy had, indeed, tried and liked her paints. I searched for hand made paints and yes, indeed, Artistic Isle was featured and was the number one recommendation that you said to try out hand made paint. So cool!

@thesleeplessspook 3 years ago

31 Purplefish and Poems About You have been my jam for quite some time now. I love giving my money to these small businesses! They put so much love and care into their paints and you get the most amazing and unusual convenience colors from them, too.

Case in point: Poems About You's Azo Green. It's the most spectacular color I've ever used in watercolor, hand's down.

@Christine-ik6sf 3 years ago

I have only tried 31 Purplefish, but they are beautiful paints. I have 2 palettes, and I’m going to need to make a third for the grab bags I recently ordered. They’re so fun!

@Addicted2Yarn13 1 year ago

Those Wallace Seymour colours are beautiful, I love the pink and dark flower you created, I love that Victorian gothic aesthetic!

@cindysimons2772 3 years ago

Wow! They all have great points. Love the butterfly palette. Also the ceramic palette.

@kendramiddlehurst 3 years ago

I love Addison & Sedgwick handmade paints. And I just purchased some from Beam that I am excited to try and was glad to support a small Indigenous brand.

@pythonsequel2924 3 years ago

That butterfly palette is so beautiful. That one is probably the most tempting to me.

@charmabrown4964 2 years ago

Ooooh I am loving the Wallace Seymour!!!

I gotta' say, Kristy surprised me with this one. She shouted out four of my favorite watercolor companies (Masha's, Ruby Mt. Company, Poems About You, and Designs By Rachel Beth). And then she tempted me with all kinds of new goodies and threw in a Bernadette Peters reference, too!!! 😀 It's like she peeked into my brain. LOL
