 Hello and welcome to the average channel. Today we are going to be looking at some new jelly paints because hi I'm Steph and I have a problem. We can all just freeze and pass that please because I know I buy a lot of jelly paints but also I'm an art channel so I like to review paints but also HMI, Hemi, Mia Guache, whatever you want to call it, Mia Art, it's not Mia Guache. I came out with a new version of the jelly paint so you've probably seen the thumbnail so you probably already know what I'm talking about. So this is the old one, well not the old one but this is a version that has 28 colors, 24 colors and then this version has 48 and it's exactly the same size. You're probably wondering what do you mean by that? What are you saying? Well here we go let's do a little unboxing because inside this one is a double pot so you get double the colors obviously less paint but that is so cool. I don't know why every time I'm just like that's awesome whenever I open a jelly paint. So I've got an addiction guys okay and I think if you're watching this you have an addiction too and they're so cute with that double action. We're gonna chest these out and they look incredible so far I'm just a little bit obsessed. I wish there was a way that you could just see them like that all the time I don't know but I'm gonna go ahead and open these which is the bane of my existence as many of you know. Okay and we're done finally a lot of gauges and this brown one really just didn't want to be opened for some reason don't know why. This set comes with a palette but it doesn't come with any brushes even there's like a brush hole here and usually they do but maybe they're like because you've got so many paints you don't get some brushes as well like no you don't get all the rewards because I'm gonna be painting with so many colors it will be cool to have a constraint on this because I find that sometimes we're more creative when we put constraints on ourselves and rules so I'm gonna just paint in this tiny sketchbook. This is my traveling sketchbook and I thought yeah why not go for it even though I'm not traveling right now it would be fun to try it out. I really want to do just something really loose with this but I do want to just maybe use as many colors as possible because I think that could be quite fun. I'm using um some himmie mirror arts brushes from another set just to I don't know rate the brushes as well even though we've already rated them plenty of times they've always been fine I want an under color in this painting. This sketchbook I got years ago now it's just one of those sketchbooks that I just pick up and take with me if I'm ever traveling so it's not ever really seeing that much action if that makes sense because traveling has not been on the agenda really very much these past few years has it so it would be good to use it a bit more. So far loving the paints of course always love these jelly paints I think they're just pretty much the same consistency as always I kind of don't see the point of it I guess other than just to have like more colors I thought it would be somebody you said when I mentioned this before that it would be nice to have like if they were different cool hue and a warm hue but that doesn't really seem to be the case does it that would be like a fun suggestion I guess some of them are like a little bit maybe I'm completely wrong and not seeing it but yeah so I'm just gonna paint this under painting now with some color so then the color like pokes through it's nice to have like this box of just lots of colors I suppose you could just buy a bigger bigger box but if you want it to just be sort of this easier carryable size then it makes sense also it's just fun right it's nice design I always find that with Hemi, MIRR Arts they always have just like really nice designed products which you know is always a bonus because I think it's nice to have like nice nicely designed things I'm a designer so I can appreciate a good product design um even though I'm not a product designer I'm a graphic designer but still still you know artists so it makes sense for us to want to have something nice to look at whilst we're working so I'm just gonna do like a landscape image today and just try and use as many paints as possible just but smaller because constraints make us creative sometimes and it's always good to put boundaries on ourselves so then it kind of pushes us to think in a different way whilst we're doing stuff although I'm mixing colors it seems like I don't really have to because I was trying to mix this color and then I saw that I had it which you know makes sense because it's a whole lot of colors so yeah I suppose you could just like mix your own colors to make these colors right but it's handy just having them there instantly I always like to mix colors myself because I feel like colors from a paint set kind of look generic and uh very just plain but this set just has some really nice colors I suppose so you could just pre-mix them yourself which makes sense gives you more time to focus on the painting rather than the mixing although mixing can be quite a nice thing to do I kind of like mixing so by the way I asked me or asked to send me one of these uh sets because I was like I'll do a review of them you know like we'll be amazing and they were just like no because they're not available in the UK yet but I got it shipped from America for me because I was like I need that that looks cool I want to review it so it's not unfortunately it's not available for people in UK if you desperately want one uh message me and I'll show you how I did it um but yeah it's it's kind of unfortunate because it's kind of can't we all have access to it it would be nice but it was a journey to try and get these I kept checking every day if they were available we just kept saying sold out but then in the end it turns out it wasn't so it's all good ooh I do not like that color color isn't that nice I like this color actually this could work yeah so just wanted to test these out really and try them out for you guys even though they are pretty much just you know jelly paints but more of them I'm not really sure it could be just a gimmick I'm not sure yet uh just trying them out I mean it got me right because I was like that looks cool I want to try them so the gimmick is working as far as selling art supplies work but what's the use of them other than that I guess the premixing is nice saves you time do you need to save that much time not sure but it is nice it is nice that's what I'm gonna say I think I said it's nice about 5 000 times and uh no one is interested in niceness is that black did I just put black there I thought that was blue oh no it is a black okay that was a mistake I don't want to put black in my painting ew I thought it was an extremely extremely dark blue but it turns out it's a black and I really don't like using black on my painting so here we go we're gonna have to try and get it off the good thing about um gouache is that it's very forgiving for mistakes like this however my paper isn't as you can see so we're gonna have to be very careful with that now of that mess yeah I thought that was just a dark blue because it's next to that of a dark blue so that was my mistake I should have looked at the colors before I just delved in it's always good to include a blackness out I guess but I just my personal taste I'm like go away I don't need you give me more whites it's also fun to just pick up colors and mix just on the page just having fun and being loose it definitely helps with looseness as you can see because I just slammed some black down on it but it's helping me I need to loosen up a little bit because even though I've got this constraint I want to be free and pretend like I've got this whole this whole table as a canvas and just go for it but it's it's hard you know so get out of your head as well sometimes so in case you can't tell I'm painting because I mean well yeah it's not really much yet but I'm going to be painting just on the English landscape English countryside which is very like basic bold shapes and bold strokes is what I'm aiming to achieve here it is difficult for me to not be so careful but I'm just trying to make it a little bit different than my usual style I guess just so if you're wondering what I'm doing I'm just building up really basic shapes I have a reference image here and I'm just like squinting at it and trying to just see where the colors and the highlights are and just kind of just dab them in and like shape them up like where I see it shining the light I mean that didn't make any sense where I see them shining where I see the light shining I'm trying to just imply that without thinking too much about forms I'm not sure what this is looking like but I'm enjoying myself which is the main point as we say on the channel and I am kind of liking how it's coming out it's just it needs a bit more work obviously so doing that now you need some darker hues I think because it looked nice once I added that dark blue down here kind of gave the impression I really like the pink poking through so I'm trying to leave areas where it's kind of still there but without like being too obvious if that makes sense without like it looking too intentional which is difficult because it is intentional do some bushes or something I've bent this brush before I don't even see that but it's kind of oddly working out for me it's like a nice little church here in this reference image but I didn't want it to be like the main focus of the image I guess it is still but um yeah I just want to kind of draw it paint it in there a little bit maybe if I just use like a dark blue to hint at what it is I don't want to like overly show what it is but I think it would be cute to just a little hint you know not sure if that's very clear what it is but kind of enjoy how it's looking I want to do like another little house in the distance here because there is one in the reference and I think it will be cute just have it in this pink shade as well but just again not like overly obvious what it is just like hint at the shape it will be cute okay and I think we're done because I don't want to do too much this painting I like the idea of having it really really simplified but this is the final look of the painting and I think it's cute I like it it's like very illustrator style loose uh yeah let me know what you think uh these paints are cool as usual pretty great I don't really see the reason for this it feels like a bit of a gimmick but it's more colors than one set so if you like the idea of having more colors then this is the set to go for bear in mind it doesn't come with paint brushes which was a little bit of a a little bit of a rude thing I would say but I really like them and yeah I've added more jelly paints to my collection and don't worry guys I have been using them use them a lot behind the scenes um not that you know but yeah it's been great great journey so I'm really happy to share this with you please like the video and subscribe if you made it to the end I guess because it did take me a lot of effort to try and find these paints and uh to get them here to test them out for you so please uh give it give this uh video a like if you can that'll be great thank you very much okay I need to stop stop working on this it's done all right thank you bye
