Welcome to my artful and commonplace channel.
Like gouache? pastels? printmaking? art journals? or just art supplies in general? Then come join me on my art journey!
Or perhaps you enjoy journalling and commonplacing, come and see how I create my own.
A bit of Background on myself.
Hello am Spirit-Lee (Yes that's my real name, if I had a penny...)
I am an Architect officially (Day Job). But I do have a strong background in crafts, Graphic Design and art, in general, have always been common threads throughout my life. I have now been nicknamed by my contemporaries as the crafty architect because I have broken away from the screen-driven process when producing designs by mixing traditional ways and then adding some digital. Working this way provides an opportunity for me to make products from my Architectural designs and observations that I can now share with you for your enjoyment and inspiration.

Unboxing a portable art studio? The answer to my travel dilemma?
What batteries does the big one require ????? I don’t think you ever mentioned it
C Cells, the short fat ones.
Can you please post a link to where you found this?
Hi, unfortunately it was via a dear friend who lives in Japan.
@@studio.spirit Well, it's very lovely and I hope you enjoy the heck out of it!
@@gwirithil1etsy , eBay and so forth have resellers who sell it but it’s a high price
Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Read ‘The Summer Book’ by Tove J - delightful. I’m ancient so read the original books 😂
I just worked out that some of the books are spilt into seasons! 😅 Do you mean Moominsummer Madness? If so I haven’t read that one yet, but it will be on my summer reading list. Thank you for watching ❤
@ no. There are some non-Moomin books (shock horror 😂) by Tove J and they’re just lovely
The primary colours all have warm tones or cool tones so in theory there are 6 primary colours 3 cool and 3 warm. This will be why the colours will differ
Very nice comparison. Appreciated! Thanks. Gracias. Salamat. Arigato.
Glad it was helpful!
Where do you buy replacement parts?
Also, does this have an auto-stop feature? Thanks!
Yes once it has reached its point, it won’t keep chipping away at it.
I haven’t had to buy any yet, but if i did I probably contact caran dache.
@@studio.spirit thank you!
@@studio.spirit I was able to place an order for the new cosmic blue color. Your review was very helpful. Thanks!
Who was the RUclipsr you mentioned that uses the 5 year journal as an art journal?
It's James Burke and if you search the name in You Tube his icon come up right at the top, but his journaling through Italy is like the second or third video I think.
James Burke, here a link to his 5 year flip though ruclips.net/video/9V0rKZj1jOI/видео.htmlsi=aH6Gj2T1jiHO9cn3
I had the same idea for 2025 😄Only I got a regular 1-year Hobonichi A6 and planned to use it with only dry mediums. But now I'm excited to try it with gouache, so thank you for sharing!
That sounds cool, i have tried some dry mediums on the paper and they don’t quite stick it, its like the tomoe river paper is to smooth. Think some things like pencil crayons need a tooth. Glad you’re excited to try with gouache, i have already started today and i love it.
I hope to get those in the coming year. They are mysterious lol
Nice, but why mysterious? I have to admit since making the video i have been using them quite a bit.
@studio.spirit I haven't seen alot of advertising for them. I do live off grid I'm only online at certain times
nice work, i actually have one same that colors😅🎆
That colours? I don’t understand. You mean you have the same colours that i showed in the video?
Thanks and good work for the review. I've seen this book before but didn't make the plunge. The thorough video was informative and got a like from me. :>
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the video. Please tell me what kind of glass bottle you have as a sharpener, size, shape, brand??? Is it a reagent bottle or something else? 300ml ? I know I’m a pain, ;)
Here’s the Link www.jacksonsart.com/studio-essentials-studio-glass-bottle-with-lid-250ml I got your email too. Hope this helps.
How do I get it to play music
That's a switch on the ice rink. I looked all over the internet work no answers. My husband found the switch by accident.
Yep Switch on the ice rink, has three settings. Lights / movement only, OFF, and everything. Thanks @dianavu816 for answering.
👍🏻 ❤
I really like the way it looks 🦇 🧛🦇
Thanks, hopping to chip away at the rest throughout the year and have some sort of video ready before next Halloween.
I enjoyed the video, thank you. I think it's a great idea to use the metal stencil for swatches, I will be pinching it immediately! 😆
Honestly use it all the time, thinking of creating my own.
that is so cool always seem to be sold out when i looked for them need to catch up on your video behind due to life and work.
Normally i would say you have to early like September time, but this one they still have they even had in the Black Friday sale.
Coucou merciiii pour la vidéo.moi j’aime les Molotow pour le coloriage mystère et j’utilise aussi les tooli art et les posca
Thanks for watching, Molotov are still my favourite just wish they were accessible in the UK but unfortunately posca rains supreme in the retail market. I’ll have a look at tooli art never heard of them. Thanks for the tip.
does it leave bite marks on the pencils?
Unfortunately, yes.
Whatv a lovely effort! So glad l found you!
Welcome! Glad you are enjoying my content
Hi what was the other 121 issue inreplacement for?
At the time of filming it was very hard the get issue 118,119,120 with the extension parts, so I made a work around using the a duplicated piece from issue 121 which worked.
Hi did you film 100-120?
I have issue 91 -110 on my to edit list, and yet to film 110-120 of the main build house. I work away a lot at the moment so hard to keep up. But determined to finish the house and videos before Christmas.
@@studio.spirit I'm Working Through My House Only Started A Few Months Ago. Trying To Source 100-116 🫣 Been Watching Your Videos As I've Been Going Through
What a wonderful idea to test new supplies! Makes it so much fun and pressure-free. Thanks for using our products, we truly appreciate the trust :) - Ânia
Thank you so much, Ânia! I am thrilled to hear that you love the idea. Testing new supplies in a fun and pressure-free way keeps the creativity flowing! I truly appreciate your support and are so glad to be using your fantastic products. Looking forward to more creative adventures ahead!
I wished the notebook had black page too! I felt the same as you lol. Also a fan of Dracula and vampires in general. Good idea for the notebook. I may do quotes for vampire books I read...
Oh what vampire books are you reading?
Wow. I need this book. It has been a long time since I've felt that I "NEED" a book. Thank you. Also.... I loved your intro and the modesty book position as you walked up the stairs. I immediately thought : "Okay. I like this woman." I was laughing before the video started. Thank you. I needed that this morning. And now I'm re-inspired about my passion for gouache. I knew my girlfriend's snobbery about it was unwarranted :) Thanks again. Subscribed.
Snobbery? About gouache or the book? And welcome! You know I have more time to film when I can sort of set the scene and come from more of a storytelling aspect or just try different things. Thanks for watching.
Mitsubishi sharpener is wonderful. I don’t use pastel pencils, but it’s fantastic for colored pencils and makes the points both sharp AND long. Since I like to use the side of the pencil, I really love the longer point.
Nice, isn’t it lovely when you find the one thing that really works for you. Thanks for watching.
I love how well your books match the items in the subscription box 🩶
Yes! When I editing I saw how good they look together had to put it on the thumbnail. Thank you for watching.
@@studio.spirit you're very welcome!
I am from Canada. I have to have address in us and wait 3-7 months for book!!! PLEASE any idea? Thanks💌
Wow crazy! I thought it would be available worldwide. If you are willing to trust me with a bit of cash and your address email at studiospirit.uk@gmail.com and I will get the book for you and send it to you.
Super helpful review. This book just made it to my Amazon cart. I have been playing around with gouache recently, and was looking for something like this. Thanks 🙏
Glad it was useful to you, hope you enjoy the book.
Definitely putting this in my Amazon wish list. I'll have to see how it adapts to the gouache I use, as it acts slightly differently from standard.
Ohhhh what kind of Gouache do you use?
This looks brilliant. Just what I need to get away from the flatter aspect of painting with gouache. Have just added to my Amazon Wishlist for Christmas. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
This is the book I’ve been waiting for. Thank you so much for the deep dive!
You're so welcome!
Great review, thank you! I’m going to check it out. You spoke about beginner and more illustrative style books…can I ask for your recommendations?
Yes, absolutely! I’d start with Creative Gouache by Ruth Wilshaw for very basics and to get going with techniques quickly. Any particular subjects you like to paint? as it will help with book recommendations.
Thank you for this great book review ! I feel gouache is the plain Jane, that's often overlooked, in comparison to the popular watercolors 😂 Off topic, may I ask what microphone/camera you're using. Your voice sounds so crisp and clear ! Perhaps, it's just your voice 😄
Thanks glad you like it. See now I see watercolour as the plain Jane lol the camera I use is Sony A7cii and sometimes iPhone 12pro but the mic is the Rode VideoMicro Compact (when I remember to bring it and put it in) otherwise it is just the in built mics on the devices and a bit of tweaking in editing.
Thank you !
Thank you loved your video. Want to try gouache (I'm a watercolourartist now). About the purple...use a warm blue (leaning red) and a cool red (leaning blue) and you get the best purples. Because they will not go to green/yellow.
Thank you great tip!
To me, that is the perfect pencil sharpener. The down side, is obtaining one. The pluss is that it is Swiss! Very precision engineered. Hope you will get lots of use from it. I like that its got variable point feature. Thanks for showing it! Wish i had one! Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing! Keep an eye out for sales! Or perhaps eBay?
This is a beautiful , helpful and a lovely video . Thank you . Yacov from Israel
Thanks glad you found it useful.
Love the leaf pattern to test the paints ❤
Thanks I will upload the pattern to my Patreon when I get back to studio so you are welcome to download it and try them for yourself.
@@studio.spirit do you have a link to your Patreon as I’m most probably too thick but I can’t find it
Here it is patreon.com/StudioSpirit
This is really confusing because you’re trying to compare gouache with acrylic gouache so it’s all over the place I don’t understand it’s like comparing an apple to a banana which acrylic gouache is better for coverage and laying down smoothly?
Not really because at the end of the day, the only difference between the two is that acrylic gouache should be permanent ie it doesn’t reactive with water. Coverage, smoothness, pigments etc should be on par with one another.
Thanks for the video. Is the only difference with the normal red version the green color? Or is this edition bigger or heavier?
I can’t say for sure as I don’t own the red one, but from what I can tell they are the same, they just released the green one as part of a Christmas collection a few years ago.
If you would like a cheap good version of this you can't beat the stabilo m80 works a treat and won't dint your pencils. My plastic m80 cost around 30 auDont forget to run graphite pencils through after your coloured pencils to maintain your blades on the crank shaft
Great Tip! To Maintain the blade. Thank you and great alternative for most pencils, but I have used the Stabilo M80 on pastel pastels and it doesn’t like the Hexagonal shape of the Caran dache pencils and tends to break easily.
How do you print on watercolor paper? An inkjet would bleed, I think? Did you print it on a laser?
I load the sheet into the rear shoot of my Epson Workforce Printer and then make sure that on the print settings the paper type is set to card stock. Hope this helps I know all printers can be different.
Want to do the same? Get the rotating base here amzn.to/3SB4MFj
I bought a small set of Caran D’Ache Neocolors on sale and also some Swisscolors, which are marketed as children’s’ supplies, but which some RUclipsrs have said are the same product, with a different target audience. The big difference between the artist-quality and supposedly kiddie-quality was that the kiddie crayons had square ends, So, how to sharpen them? None of my rather large collection of mostly-useless pencil sharpeners (including the special ones for pastel pencils, which do work for that purpose) would work on the Neocolors. However, by determined browsing on Amazon I found a highly-recommended beauty crayon sharpener. My experience with this kind of sharpener (for sharpening lip and eye pencils) has generally not been great, but I didn’t like the art supply options for the Neocolors, either. Happy ending: the beauty pencil sharpener works perfectly on the Neocolors: sharpens even the blunt-ended kiddie crayons to a nice point without damage, unnecessary waste or any great effort or skill. Cost: £2-something, shipping included. Moral of the story: you don’t have to spend a two-figure sum to sharpen these crayons.
I haven’t and wouldn’t sharpen any of the Neocolour (oil, wax, or water soluble) with this as they are too soft. Am rather confused about you comparing Neocolour (crayon like) to swisscolours (pencils) in my experience two very different products. Glad you found something that works for you. I still use and enjoy using my sharpener for pastel pencils.
Can you link the little image u got off of etsy that is on your first page?
Do you the Sketch version of the man from the front cover?
That image is so cute too, but I was referring to the girl sitting 🪑 on the chair in the first page when you open the book.
I was brought here by the algorithm and I'm so glad it did as I love your style of journaling! I've barely touched my Cousin this year as I keep getting too in my own head about it and feeling like each page has to look perfect and it becomes a chore. I really love how personal your journal looks to you, it makes me want to reassess my whole relationship with my own book, so thank you for the inspiration! ♥
Wow thank you for your kind words, I’m glad this has inspired you. Just remember your book is yours no one has to see it, so doesn’t have to be perfect or even completely filled in can have days, months missing, it completely ok. It took me along time to find a system that I actively want and even get excited about filling in.
Your Hobonichi looks so cool! I really like your style of journaling. How do you print your photos so your dairy does not look very bulky? I've tried once scrapbooking in it, but it was so hard to write in it after only one month of pasting photos :(
Thank you! Yes the bits of packaging I put in made it hard to write ✍️ they maybe a few tiny holes where the pen went through lol but I still like to do it. The paper I use is either standard printer paper 90gsm with Gloo to stick em down or I use Epson photo quality sticker paper which is matte rather than glossy. Or am using up the last of my clear glossy vinyl paper. Hope this helps. Do you think I should do a separate video explaining how I print and what supplies I use?
👍
