This is the Finale of my Cozy Swatching Series. In this series I swatch products from my Big Art Supply Haul. This time it's watercolors in tubes by Schmincke, their so called "Super Granulation" Series, as well as various paints by Daniel Smith. Most of the Daniel Smith colours are granulating as well however I also picked a lot of muted and moody colours since I already own a lot of vibrant colours as well as basic colours by other brands and I think Daniel Smith does a really good job with curating very unique shades. I find swatching to be super relaxing and I take my time here to demonstrate how the colours shift and change as they dry. I also got a few colours that I am not very fond of and rant some. At the end of the day it all comes down to personal preference, so bear with me.
