As usual, robust research with informative comparisons and mix notes. I always learn something with these Spotlights. Thanks Denise!

Dear Potter's Pink, I remember when we first met. I thought you were beautiful and offered you a drink of water but you refused to come out to play. I was sad we didn't get to know each other. I still think you are lovely. Fondly, T. Grey

Potter’s Pink used dilutely is like a granulation medium, I use it to add texture all the time in the most unexpected mixes. My favourite colour to mix it with is indanthrone blue

If you are ever painting frekels on a person, a little bit of potters in the mix where you want them to appear will do all the work for you!

I bought it to paint a pig originally then had no use for it until I went on vacation to Mesa, Arizona and realized potter’s pink was all over the place. Depending on where you live it might be a great landscape color. I also used it in a mix with quinacridone coral for a scarlet ibis and adored it as well.

The color spotlight is back! A real favorite! I have both W&N and a Daniel Smith potter's pink. I enjoy working with W&N but had nothing but problems with DS. It was hard, heavily separated from the binder and it became the only professional paint I've thrown away. Love this episode!

[FaerieDust]

Yay, potter's pink! I've been absolutely obsessed with this color for a couple of weeks now, it's amazing ❤️ it's so gorgeous used with a cobalt turquoise type hue.

[jalerisun]

The wn one is my favorite!Those mixes are truly unique.

Thanks for getting the Color Spotlights going again. I really like them and find them very educational. Love your little piggy! He's just right for this color. The color is interesting. I like it. It's kind of brownish pink. Don't quite know what I'd use it for - maybe on tree trunks where the bark has peeled away. I do a lot of florals and trees. I sure hope you are doing well. I keep you on my prayer list. God bless, dear Denise.

Catching up on some of your older color spotlight videos, your piglet is adorable!

[GreenForestSpirit]

Wonderful video! I absolutly love the combination of Potters pink with Sap green and Turquoise. Thank you so much for sharning :)

Ohh, I wonder if the W&N swatch was from the dot card I sent you like eleventy-billion years ago... Pretty sure it was on there... At any rate, I still love Potter's Pink, despite the rewetting issue once dried in a pan... I love using it for pinking on the white markings of horses, especially their noses. I mix it with a trace of warmish yellow to brighten it up, and it works really well.

I finally got around to enjoy this beautiful video! I remember buying potters pink by schmincke and trying it out for the first time. I used it for skin and hair at that time to let the hue shine, but ultimatly I prefer brighter pinks as stand-alones. My Potters pink now is in my palettes for its mixing and granular properties, and I really love using it! Just recently I painted a dragon's scale with a mix of PY150 and PR233, which turned into a great granular and dusky gold that I completely fell in love with.

Oh my gosh, a new episode, yay!! Honestly, thank you so much for all the information, work and passion you have put into your videos over the years. I've learned so much from your swatch with me and colour spotlight series as well as your skillshare classes, and am finally about to buy my own palette of professional paints. So thank you for all the beautiful videos and the education. (I also enjoy watching them because watching watercolour flow is a great visual stim for a lil neurodivergent bean such as me haha!)

Also, those vibrant orange mixes look perfect for some of the roof tiles in eastern Europe!

[Callyth]

A very welcome addition to this series! I've never really liked/understood this pigment because of how soft and transparent it is, so I'm pretty happy to see you share some of its strengths

i potter's pink. its so beautiful and granulates so well.

[scarletwoodland]

I love W & Ns Potters Pink and enjoy mixing it with granulating cobalts for subtle palettes.

[mikeyfinger]

I’ve been waiting for potters pink for what seems like forever. Thank you for taking us on this color adventure. I have never realized how much darker the Schmincke version was. I’m glad you’re feeling a little bit better!

[sophielegay]

You know, you're one of the youtubers you inspired me to start my art channel ❤

[lindzloot]

I love the gentle process of using watercolors. Beautiful video!
