I've seen people on youtube complain that the Winsor and Newton watercolours aren't pigmented enough - I quite like the muted, pale colours - they are what a watercolour is supposed to be. If you do landscapes, muted, pale colours are what you want in the painting. In Animals of Farthing Wood, Watership Down (the film and ITV series), traditional Disney movies and cartoons like David the Gnome and Prince Valiant, the
Finally got around to ordering the exercise books that I want to make into a writing journal for next year.

Ah Christmas, that time of the year when all companies put pressure on you to buy tons and tons of stuff that you can't afford (and most likely, don't even need), and sink you into more debt than you was previously.

This is interesting. Back in 2013, I used to buy quite a lot of international goods on etsy. (I don't anymore, because of the shipping costs.) I noticed more recently how the shipping costs, especially from the US was a lot higher than it used to be. I was looking at an artist's shop that I like which I bought some prints from a number of years ago because I like their art, but didn't get prints of all the art work

that I wanted. They now have an etsy shop, and boy are the prints far more expensive than what I paid for back when they sold on their own website. The prints were about $10 each - now they are twice that, plus the shipping. On their website if you bought three prints, you could get them all shipped together at no extra cost to you. Contrast that with their listing on etsy, and you are charged more for the shipping

with each print that you buy, plus a humongous tax fee, too, so what cost me about £30 then would now cost me in extent of £80, which is a huge price increase. (Don't know why the artist stopped selling on their own website, or why they don't sell on redbubble, or deviant, etc.. Now, there is this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8d2irxGrews&ab_channel=MixedMediaGirl

Just thought that people should be aware of it. I don't know if clicking on a listing which is advertised causes etsy to take more of a percentage, or if clicking on the listing in the seller's shop means that they get all the money they should, but I think people should just be aware of how bad etsy has become.
If there is one thing that is irritating it's constant, spammy (and sometimes creepy) marketing e-mails. You sign up to a website because you want to buy something from them at a later date (you have to wait because you don't have the money to buy it at the moment), and the site constantly spams your e-mail several times a day. Wouldn't mind if it was once a week, but several times a day is too much.

Today, I followed my first youtube tutorial. Somewhat happy with the results, but I need to practice more.

I found it mentally tiring as opposed to physically tiring, so I think that I'll take a break and do another one tomorrow. I think that how it is benefiting me is teaching me how to mix colours, shade and give depth to parts of the paintings where before I was just painting flatly.
The new computer arrived a few days ago and I've installed LOTRO on it. The graphics are sharper, and less cartoon like, and the lag that I've been having problems with lately on the old computer is non-existent (for now, at least.) I'm slowly getting everything that I want on to this new machine and (hopefully) with it being much less laggy, I can get more work done on it.

backgrounds are often muted and pale. The muted and pale look is often seen in Edith Holden's work, Field Guide art, etc, so it's the look that I would want when trying to do realistic landscapes and paintings. If you want that effect with other brands, you'd have to water it down a great deal, and need a lot of space to do so. They are also designed to be used in the field, so muted, pale colours are better as you'd
need to carry a lot of water with you to get them pale enough. I don't think people consider how other people use the different watercolour brands, the style of paintings that other people do, or how they use them.
