Hello friends!
I’m Elisabetta, an Italian watercolor artist with a passion and a curiosity for art supplies and pigments.
Today we are swatching and comparing 8 different brands of Davy's Gray (or Grey?) : Winsor & Newton, Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Qor, Mijello Gold, Holbein, Paul Rubens, Old Holland and a similar colour by Wallace Seymour.

Davy's Gray is a beautiful greenish grey, perfect for winter foliage, seascapes and moody skies. Each brand has a different interpretation, a different formula and therefore a totally different hue. This is way is so much fun to swatch and compare them.

Come swatch with me! And comment please!
