Half sheet of Arches Cold Press with Winsor / Newton paints.
Full sheet ( 22" x 30" ) Arches Cold Press with Daniel Smith paints. I needed see these two side by side to compare. ( The first was auctioned to help the tsunamie victims in Japan. ) I was trying to get more subtle shapes with the blossoms in the second painting. Not sure I accomplished that. As it photographed I don't see much difference in the values just the colors.
It's not untaped yet so I may go back in. But I'll let it "cure" over night & take an other look later.

I like them both, maybe the 1/2 sheet a bit more. I use mostly Daniel Smith paints and love them; how about you?
ReplyDeleteHi Deb ! Thanks so much. I actually went ahead and reworked some areas. I like it better and it's closer to what I was going for. But I can't take it any farther. I'm just getting to know DS paints. They do seem a little different, a bit "creamy". Does that make sense ? What do you think ?
ReplyDeletegreat work, amazing
ReplyDeletei like the arches too. But i Paint wiith Schminke here in Switzerland have i never seen Daniel Smith
But i'am pretty satisfied.
Happy painintg Stephanie
Hi Stephanie !
ReplyDeleteI understand Schminke is wonderful! I have a friend from Belgium who uses them. I all ways used Winsor/Newton until I saw Daniel Smith sample "dots". I think if you "Google" DS, you may be able to get the samples from them.
Thanks for visiting !
Masterpiece!..
ReplyDeleteThese are exquisite! I love how you can achieve a whole different mood with the colors in each. Your such a talented artist, I'm inspired by your work!
