I had never heard of Seawhite journals until i visited the cave! They are awesome for just what they are intended for without having to pay an arm & a leg & sometimes a pinky finger.😂🎉 Thank you so much for introducing me to this brand. If i had to best describe the paper, i would say it's much like a hot press in smoothness... that's the 140gsm all media sketchbook. It's oversized for wet media. I love em, thank u so much again for the introduction. ❤
I love a journal with elastic fixings. Apart from keeping your pages pristine, they're great for pressing flowers and leaves. 😊 That's a really nice sketchbook for casual doodles! I must resist, however as my art trolley is groaning under the weight of sketchbooks still to be used! 🤣 One of them is a mahoosive Seawhite Sketchbook I used when I was at Uni over a decade ago. It's mixed media paper that handles everything from watercolour to oil pastels like a boss! 😁 The mere mention of Cavemas makes me indescribably happy. I love this time of year. 😊
Zero judgement here about having to think about Christmas stuff at the end of October. I've been working on Christmas presents for over a month now :D Christmas season always starts early for me. The sketchbook looks really nice and that sparkly paint is just... it's like glittering snow.. I love it! Congrats to the lucky one who was able to grab the Sketchbook :)
I have a landscape watercolour sketchbook from Moleskine and I actually love using it for practice :) I think I would like to try one of these some day. Also... the transparent shimmery paint of Julia's looks very familiar. I'll definitely be at the stream! I think it'll brighten my week a lot. It's not been the best.
Ah Gem, I flipping love the seawhite watercolour travel journals. I’ve been using them for years now! Gonna watch later but wanted to pop a quick message to say hello!!
Oh Gem! I’m so so so glad you love this book as much as I do! You can use poscas in them if you’re gentle, gouache behaves beautifully too, as do polychromos & acrylic paint. I converted from using the moleskine watercolour sketchbooks because of the price point and recently “treated” myself to a moleskine recently and wasn’t as impressed with it as I used to be. 🧡🧡🧡
I'd definitely be interested in getting one if you stick these in the shop. Also I'm with you on the rounded corners. I'm not even sure why I prefer them do much, lol, but it's definitely a factor when I look at sketchbooks.
I love all my Seawhite sketchbooks, great exploration of the watercolour one Gem! This is the one I've got and it's great for practice and urban sketching with pen & wash. Definitely would buy more from you!
I am impressed with this sketch book buuut since I live in california I don't think shipping would make this a good deal. I do hope that Julia releases that set in one of her little adorable compacts because I absolutely LOVE it as a Christmas set!
Julia always manages to decimate my wallet at Christmas! Just for info - if you were to buy one of the sketchbooks with nothing else in your order, shipping would be around $6 - postage goes by weight.
As a chocolatier that has to have the Advent Calendars done by the Monday before U.S. Thanksgiving Day, feel free to "bang on" about Cavemas. Pentatonix Christmas songs have been blasted, as of last Saturday, to help me find the right mindset to come up with designs for the winter bonbons. And hooray for giving JuliaK's watercolors another shout-out!
i tend to find seawhite stuff OK, does the basic job what ever the supply is, (and really easy to get at college/unis), but its def not premium but at the prices you find them, you dont expect much more than what the supplies do/act.
I love Hahnemühle but I like the non watercolour sketch books I have from Seawhite so would be interested here. Never can have too many sketch books ……

And you know you will get a warm welcome!
Love the Julia K paints you got! I didn't even know there were seawhite journals before. Thank you so much for yet another great video!
Most welcome!
I've really enjoyed the seawhite sketchbooks I bought from you previously. I would like to try the textured pages in this one. Thank you for the demo!
After that I think I know what my next a5 watercolour sketchbook will be!
👍 give it a go! 🙃🎉 Feel better soon 😘

Interesting! Well if I stock them in the Stash, you know they will be at a fair price!
@@TheColourCave 🧡 of course it will be! I’m hoping to join the stream tomorrow!

oooh, bonbons.
Been wondering about these for a while, so this was super helpful! *zooms to stash shop*
Brilliant video Gem, Gladstone feeling better
Wee bit of autocorrect there, Jacquie? 😂 Yes, getting there now, hope you are on your way too!
Bloody auto correct I hope Gladstone is feeling better soon who ever he is 😂😂
That made me laugh, this is exactly the kind of thing Mama Gem would say! (She is a champion of autocorrect 😂)

Yes, I think they represent good value for money - I think that is a fair description?
yep, really fair description. if im looking for a basic sketchbook, i grab one of the brand 🙂
I normally use ETCHR Perfect sketch books but after the workout you have just given the Seawhite it looks like it might be comparable.
Got notified, Clicked XD

Yes, this has been known, I know many Cavers who now require a second shelf!
