I loved this video. You inspired me to buy the graphite tint set a month ago and when you first mentioned the Amazon Basics sketchbook, I ordered two of them. I plan to use them specifically for the line and wash pieces I like to do and want to save my watercolor sketch book for the water-heavy watercolor work. Like you, I absolutely love the paper- it holds up for gouache too. I’m just learning gouache and often dilute it so I can move it more easily, and the paper holds up just fine.
Hi Linda! Who would have thought that a generic Amazon sketchbook under $10 would be so good, right?! I’m delighted you’re enjoying them! Thank you so much for your membership, too! I’m deeply grateful to know you appreciate Art on the Creek. Have TONS of fun with the graphitint and the line & wash sets! And also the gouache! It’s a wonderful medium! Enjoy your weekend and happy creating 💜
Thanks for the reply! I have had a selection of Derwent watercolor pencils for years, but really enjoy the Derwent kits! So convenient and lovely colors. I may have to get the line and wash set, too-a nice selection. Happy Spring!
Absolutely love your street scene Ann. I must take a look at the Amazon basics art materials a little closer. I hope it’s working out very well for you. Interestingly, on your first painting, you called those sweets “lifesavers “, here in Scotland they have been around for over 50 years, but were and still are called, ‘fruit polos”. A polo is obviously mint, but the ones you painted are fruity? Good night, hope your day is going well. 🎨👩🏻🎨🖌️❤️❤️
Hi Anita! Thanks so much! Line & Wash has a very unique quality, doesn’t it?! Fruit polos! I think that’s much better! I have yet to try the Amazon Basics colored pencils. Lindsay Weirich wasn’t a fan-so we’ll have to see. I do love this art journal, though! Can’t believe it-I thought it would be an experimental waste of money & it’s a KEEPER!! Woohoo!🎉

Those paints and sketchbook look really nice together. I hope to see more from you, Anne. Thank you for sharing it withbys.
Hi Diane! So glad you were able to see this one & enjoy it! Have fun watching your way through the Members Library 😁 See you soon!

Isn’t it strange how often the items we have the lowest expectations of, tend to surprise us? 😁👍🏻🎨🖌️👩🏻🎨
@anitadavidson1266 yes!!! I agree completely!!!
