⭐ Q&A LIST BELOW:

💧 More info on the pigments?
🌿 these pigments are an exclusive collaboration between Choosing Keeping and a lovely pigment store called Saiun-do in Japan. I've talked about these pigments more extensively in my other recent videos as well.

💧Gloves & Respirator?
🌿 YES. I should 100000% be wearing gloves and a mask. If I wasn't filming I would have. However, the last time I wore gloves in a paintmaking video, the sound of the gloves were unpleasant to listen to to many people. I decided for the sake of the video to omit them. However, yes. Gloves are very necessary especially if you are not working with pigments specifically made for Nihonga paintings.

💧 Why add honey?
🌿 this step is optional but i prefer to add it since it gives the paints a nice texture. it will also preserve moisture.

💧 Filming Equipment?
🌿 Camera: Sony A7rII
Lens: Sony - FE 24-105mm F4 G
Mic: Rode Video Mic
Tripod: Slik Pro 500 DX

💧 Why don't the pigments fit back in after crushing them?
🌿 (Someone more knowledgeable, please correct me if I'm wrong) I'm assuming it's because the pigments were much more compact before being crushed. In its "rock" form, the powder is super compressed and tight which allows it to fit into the vials.

💧 Why make handmade paints rather than buying ones at the store?
🌿 It's kind of like cooking your own food. There are delicious meals you can buy from restaurants but food made from home is a different kind of deli

    the sounds are just 🔮🧚🏻‍♀️✨𝓬𝓻𝓸𝓷𝓬𝓱✨🧚🏻‍♀️🔮
  • @aaracat
    I don’t know why the sound of the pigments being crush is so nostalgic I come back to YouTube with like more than 3,000 notifications lmao, thank you to everyone who commented tho I found it very entertaining! <33 Also make sure you give this video a like the creator deserves it!
  • I couldn’t get past the first five minutes without saying this: that crunching sound is absolutely FABULOUS. I love it. It’s also so visually appealing with the colors being inside glass
  • @deskmaker
    I hope this never ever gets taken down or dissapears because I want to be able to sit down in 20 years and listen to that amazing pigment crushing sound and feel at peace with the world
  • @smishstudio
    This is the art equivalent of hearing raindrops on leaves or a tin roof.
  • @cindyshum1363
    When you click on the video thinking it was a short clip and then 50 minutes later realizes it wasn’t
  • Thank you. You’ve given an image of a glimpse of the amount of effort that goes into making art.
  • When we remember Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian and Van Goth, we see what they did before they painted. Often semi-precious stones were ground to paste, because their color never changed. The same was true with many oxides. The Australian Aboriginal tribes sell dozens of ochres of different colors. All are colors that never fade.
  • @silverdrag0n_
    there's something so very cottage core about paint pigments in little vials

    Приготовление красок как искусство... А этот волшебный похрустывающий звук красящего пигмента...! Завораживающе расслабляет, как хорошо под это засыпать..))) Браво 👏 автору, надо же было снять такую красоту! Теперь хочется приготовить краски самостоятельно! А потом ими рисовать..Так сказать полный цикл художества 👌 Хотя можно пойти еще дальше и добыть сам пигмент в недрах земли👍)))
  • @KatieSanvick
    that sound when you initially start crushing the pigments has got to be one of my favorite sounds ever
  • @LittleDarkLies
    The amount of confidence to wear a long sleeved white sweater
  • @RedisFun2
    She is an absolute artist in every step of this video. From the cinematography, to the "setting" the tools used, to the level, quality and number of disciplines she uses is amazing! The pigment turning into paint was also visually beautiful as well as relaxing. The colors and the use of the glass tools again beautiful visuals. The studio, so beautifully set. Could see the wind blowing outside, the brightness of the sun, then the sunset/evening. The editing... Are you kidding me? Where does her talant end?
  • @WillowNotHere
    0:58 why is this so satisfying also this camera quality is better than my eyes trying to find something in broad daylight
  • me: i am not going to just sit and watch her grind up more powder. i am going to do my homework her: empties another vial of powder me: i am going to sit here and watcher her grind up more powder
  • @Mopsyoutube
    I’m colourblind and this is still satisfying, that’s how you know you did a good job.
  • @MomokoMaggie
    I love both watching and listening to these, the crushing paint almost sounds like snow, the tinking of the glass, the little sounds of the air bubbles popping. And the smoothness of the finished paint 😍 makes me want to do it myself, just a whole day of ASMR personal paint making 💕💕
  • @Jackjohnjay
    Home with terrible stomach flu and needed something relaxing and not more bad news to watch. This was great -thank you!
