Daniel Smith Amethyst Genuine Review - Under the Microscope | Flowers and Fruits Tutorial
In this Daniel Smith Amethyst Genuine review video, we'll be looking at this pigment under the microscope, applying some swatches, and seeing how it interacts on paper. I'll be painting some flowers and fruits in a tutorial near the end using Amethyst Genuine.
I don't have mineralogical experience, but thought it'd be interesting to include a microscope view for you to see. I compare it to Duochrome Blue Pearl, which has fragments of fine mica mixed into the paint.
What do you think of this color? Would you use it in any of your paintings?
