Thanks for those words... An inner positive mindset can be our greatest quality - a part of our character that can protect us from the shocks of Life... And yes, Art also helps. Thanks for posting this.

Do you have an ebay? 👀

Where did you buy your watercolor set? I want to buy one just like that but I haven’t found one like yours.

What a clever idea! I just purchased a Beechman sketchbook, paper is wonderful and thick but just too big so I tend not to use it. So simple and smart

Beautiful painting and topic!❤

This sounds so good ☺☺

Yaaay! Exciting update. I think a pdf with the color info is most useful. Looking forward to the launch.

Awesome!! Count me in!

I also do not like the feel of soft pastels…and clay…though there is some sort of hand cream that is supposedly to help block that…liquid gloves or something like that.

such a satisfying video ☺☺

Fantastic tutorial and really informative. I also love that your dogs with you while your filming it’s real. My little Shih Tzu would throw a tantrum if I didn’t let him in my room. Thank you for sharing this video.

Ooh...Sennelier Oil pastels...these are considered some of the best ops...I have a a portrait set that I haven't made much use of. (I just did a small size oil pastel piece w/Cray-pas SPECIALIST ...harder, but great blending, artist quality ops on heavy tone paper and was wowed & LOVE them now.) A couple of years ago I did use Sennelier's D'Artigny spray fixative made esp for op's on another piece I did with a different brand of ops and it worked fabulously. It's aerosol w/strong fumes and you do have to spray outside, but follow directions on the can and it will seal your work beautifully. There are other fixative brands, but Sennelier's version seems to have the best success. Cons: pricey and it (or any fixative) may change the colors slightly. 😊

Watching this again a year later...I didn't comment on the migraine triggering ...ouch 😖! I deal w/that some too. I've been lucky 🍀 with various color media I've bought in terms of odors. But if I use something one time and it triggers a headache or a nasty migraine, I won't likely try it again...but I understand why you wanted to try w/these lovely acrylics. Too bad. Wondering if you ever tried an electric desktop air filter? I bought one to use when I'm using pastels and they really do capture a lot of the fine particles of dust, (I don't like wearing a mask) and I think they may help with odors too? Not sure. The HEPA filtration (replacement filters are available) that most of the brands use these days is very good. Amazon has a lot to choose from and they're not that expensive. Mine is a Clorox brand and was around $40. Take care.

The thicker you put Inktense on the surface will move. I also found it more common with the blocks than the pencils. Personally I prefer the pencils.

I'm so curious to know if the nova colors are light fast! I'm so sad that they don't say it on the bottle :⁠'⁠(

SOIUNDS LIKE SARAH RENAE CLARK'S CUBE BOX 1 & CUBE BOX 2.... HOW MUCH ARE YOU CHARGING.. I DONT SEE A PRICE TAG ANYWHERE?????????????????

VERY FUN 2 WATCH.. GREAT JOB.. CANT WAIT TO GET SUPPLIES & try it...

I prefer silver

Such a gorgeous tutorial ☺☺

Loving my novacolor paints. I must order more!! I’ve been trying to find the pigment info for NovaColor and I can’t find the info anywhere. I’ve reached out to the company and haven’t heard back.

The empty paint markers are Montana brand. I love them.

Unfortunate that shipping costs on Nova Paints are expensive. 5 paints was going to be 14.95 to ship plus taxes etc. too expensive for me

Pastel mess? I like to feel my colors, but I've started wearing some snug fitting disposable gloves for the soft pastels...esp with some colors containing cadmium or cobalt it's best to avoid skin contact. I also use a tabletop air filter that really helps with airborne dust. A face mask is another option, but they feel a bit annoying sometimes.

I like to use acrylic markers rather than paint bc there no leftover paint to wash down the sink or even much clean-up. I think your empty marker brand is Montana ...I have a few of their empty and paint filled ones. They're excellent.

Thanks for sharing! I think most artists have a weakness for buying art supplies...especially color media. It doesn't help that watercolors, for instance, look like little candies or Himi gouache? Looks like fruit & dessert flavored pudding. My last big buy was for one item...last fall when I spent $105 for the Sennelier Paris Collection of 120 soft half stick pastels for a pastel course I was taking.This was a "couldn't resist price"...some sort of a promo. Now that same set is $160! If you're into soft pastels, I can tell you these are some most gorgeous and vivid colors I've ever seen in any color medium. But there are even more expensive brands from smaller makers that I didn't think I could afford to indulge in...and I still need to complete the online course 😮And then it's best to buy the sanded paper that the pastels adhere to much better...and it's also very pricey. Yes, creating art can be an expensive habit!

what a gorgeous haul, thank you for sharing ☺☺

I'm not much into acrylic but seeing all this paint and the swatches is just ao tempting! I was doing so well on my no buy this year until my family gifted me some "paint money" and I've been out of control since 😅💔

I love Nova Color paints - they’re like the perfect texture and vibrancy.

What a fun haul! I have a couple of tips for you .... the inktense blocks have the color number embossed on one of the sides. I adore the Malabu markers. One thing I've found with using them is they are at their best on a gessoed surface. They smudge better and move better generally. Not sure why ... Love the permanence, only wish the line were as extensive as the Neocolors.

liked it. thanks. no music is good

Wonderful!! Love this!! ❤️🌷

This is fantastic, stayed till the end ☺☺

This is perfect without music ❤

Fantastic video, watched and enjoyed till the end ☺☺

I have watched many tutorials, and they are hard to follow but I so appreciate yours, you explain what you're doing and you do it slowly, I truly appreciate how slowly you are going, it allows me to see what you are doing. I can't wait to do this one on my own. Thank you.

amazing tutorial, watched and enjoyed till the end ☺☺

I was told that, in order for the art business I started to be successful, I have to find my art style and stick with it. People should be able to recognize my art just by looking at it. I was so busy focusing on what my style is that I lost some of the love for discovering what and how I like to paint. I'm not in it to crank out pieces like a machine. I'm in it to make what resonates with me and support my art supply habit. 😂

THIS. You just explained how last year I learned to love drawing more by drawing ‘whenever I felt like it’ and how much more happier I felt no matter the quality. Social media did have me running in a loop of needing to draw a specific way almost daily, and despite the improvement, mentally I wasn’t interested in the process and don’t care for it after posting it. I feel like the advice I’ve given myself to draw whenever opens this freedom to experiment more without the pretext of it being ‘work/ a challenge’. Tho, funnily enough, I had the idea to draw everyday this month as a way to try the new art supplies I’ve bought, but it went as well as you said, lol 😅 I even had that feeling of being overwhelmed by negativity from not catching up on those prompts. My guess is that no matter how simple ‘drawing everyday’ sounds, sometimes it’s better to let your mind rest for when you really have the craving for it. I think this video’s a sign or like a reminder for me to go back to the ‘draw whenever’ mindset I had last yr. so thanks for that 🤗🥰✨ ((Btw, noticed the color wheel in background is the same as the one I have which is neat.))

I spray my oil pastels paintings with Krylon Workable Fixatif and it seals them.

This is wild, thank you for sharing ☺☺

It feels like you just explained my soul. Thank you. This has made me think for sure.

Definitely box nr 1 🌼🤗💛⚘🕊

We need more videos like this one. Thank you

the turner palette is lovely!

Gloss medium is not a varnish. GamVar from Gamblin is more archival and removable.

I was a gymnast for years. I think of my sketchbook as my gym. It’s where the mistakes and the learning happens. Do you think Simone Biles just goes out and throws amazing routines? No, it’s the culmination of hours in the gym. Spend the time learning like no one is watching. That’s what sketchbooks are for.

Beautiful cards! Was bummed to find out campaign ended, I wanted to pledge <3

The obvious answer for "what to do" with these unwanted supplies is to donate them. Do you have any local art clubs? High schools? That will help free yourself of the burden of relentless consumerism.

Oh damn I decided to check your stuff and this is lovely An unrelated concept but these could totally work for writing too Mystic currents below the ocean act as labyrinth's to varying locations, same path different destination, the hand of faith guiding the unsuspected who fell under
