How I Colour rock/stone texture - pencils over marker base - image by Jasmine Becket-Griffith
A kind of unplanned video today as I ended up having to do overtime at work the night before so had no prep time :) This one is a requested video from a comment I had asking how I got the stone texture in my Alice statue image. I figured I'd do a quick video on it as it's a pretty simple method.
Colours look a little off on video - the original image is a cooler gray marker base , closer to my demo sample image and the greens don't show up much at all whereas in real life they're more obvious. Hopefully works to get the idea across though. My description of drawing cracks into the stone isn't the best - I found it kind of hard to explain but again hopefully the idea comes across. As usual ...

How I colour hair - Psychadelic edition. Colouring Heaven Bohemian Beauties Special

This will be my last video for this month as I'm heading off on holiday to sunny Wales :) I decided to have some fun and work on a challenge to colour some psychadelic hair. I've boosted colours/saturation quite a bit in editing as my camera wasn't picking up the neon shades I was using very well at all - especially the yellow. I did also download a slightly less saturated version if you guys w...
Alice in Wonderland - Jasmine Becket-Griffith with Crayola Twistable pencils

Inspired by a video by @ColourAndCollageWithEms I decided to dig out my Crayola twistables ( yeah - I know I'm going a bit Crayola crazy at the moment lol ) and colour a page in Jasmine Becket-Griffith's Alice in Wonderland Colouring Book. It ended up getting a little more complicated than I intended when I added a collage background but was still fairly quick and fun :) Colours/saturation has ...

    It's not going to help at this point but if you buy another set of pencils and are concerned about the print wearing off, put a layer of clear nail polish over it when they are new. It will seal it and protect it from the oils of your hands. It won't affect sharpening.

    Finally back to watching your gorgeous pages. The Rainbow Brite one is my favorite for this video but has a sad story attached to it. It was the last video I watched with my Oma, she passed a few days later. She liked your voice and commented on how genuinely cheerful you are. Anyway! Thank you for giving me a chance to share that memory with my Oma any time I want to go rewatch the video. Eventhough you didn't know you.

    I haven't touched a Twistable since my kids were small (they are 21 and 30 now lol), they much preferred them over crayons. They went from those to Prisma as they got older and were able to handle a sharpener.. we live in the US so Prisma are cheap and available all over. You can even buy small sets at Walmart and Target.

    • @saffire_colours
      @saffire_colours Месяц назад

      I wish i lived in the U.S sometimes - Prismas are so expensive over here in the UK. A lovely colouring friend of mine has passed her old 48 set onto me when she upgraded to a bigger set, so I have been able to try them out ( hopefully will use them on camera soon ) and I do love how they work. So soft and easy to blend ❤

    • @waymire01
      @waymire01 Месяц назад

      @saffire_colours the thing I love about them is how they spread across the paper under the prisma blender. I've never found another pencil that can do it. You can take the darkest pencil you wish to use in a space, lay it down heavy in the shadows, feather the edge a bit, and spread it like butter autoblending to white. It's so fast, and looks like you spent hours on it.

  • @waymire01

    Happy early birthday. I love how you look at a page and just say "nope, not coloring any of that" lol... and it comes out awesome. Need to do more of that myself I think.

  • @waymire01
    @waymire01 Месяц назад

    It may be interesting to test each of the Crayola pencils on small images just to see what they would do in use and see each color side by side in isolation. I was going to suggest a pumpkin practice sheet I use really often.. there are four on a page and they are just the right size to be fast but not fiddly.. simple but detailed enough to do some shading/blending etc... but unfortunately the colorist's Kofi download page doesn't exist anymore. I was quite surprised, as she had a ton of color charts on there she worked really hard on and were quite popular. I hope she's ok. I have the download, and as it was free and no longer offered I don't think it would be an issue to share it with you, but I'm not sure how to get it to you. Anyway, I know there are a lot of other similar resources out there. Doing the same image really helps me compare media on equal ground so I can see how the media works without the individual image affecting the results. I can also compare paper by just printing it out on a few types and using the same media. If you have a test or blank page in the back of a book you can even remove it and print the designs on it to really test how it behaves before jumping in to a full page in the book. I've found it very helpful. It's saved me a lot of money as well, as it's allowed me to pick up just a few pencils/pens and test them before buying a full set.. I figured out I really don't like some of the most expensive and popular brands, or that they are no different to something else I already own.
