Great colouring space! Fellow Canadian colourist (I’ve got a youtube channel too!) and I had to laugh at your pencil crayon comment 😀. I call my “coloured pencils” pencil crayons all the time and I’m always having to correcting myself. Yes, must be a Canadian thing! Best of luck on your channel. Great video 😊
Hello, fellow Canadian! :) And yes - I think it must be a Canadian thing. :D They were always been "pencil crayons" to me until I started watching other colourists on RUclips and realized that most people called them coloured pencils. :) I catch myself most times but I'm sure that "pencil crayons" will pop into my videos every now and again. ;) :) And thank you so much for your kind words! I'll check out your channel! :)
Thanks, Lindsay! :) I have no idea why Canadians latched onto "pencil crayons" - but then we do tend to have some odd names for things (like chesterfield for couch and toque for winter hat). :) Is your best friend originally from Canada?
So... while I spend the afternoon colouring, I'm binge watching your video's. Your space is so inviting, I'd love to spend a couple of hours in your Colouring Cave with you. 🥰
Welcome! I’m always looking for new channels. Love you set up. Looks very conducive to creativity. Can’t wait to see your subsequent videos. New sub here!
What a lovely colouring space. A beautiful view and you have everything so well organised! I'm from the Netherlands, so I'm well known with Marjolein Bastin's work. I love her illustrations, but I had never seen that day-to-day calender before! I immediately ordered one so that next year I can enjoy her work everyday. 😃
That day-to-day calendar brightens my every day when I sit down to work - I already have the one for next year bought and ready to go! :) Marjolein's work is just so beautiful. Glad you stopped by! :)
What a lovely video! Your creative space is so Zen and the view is very inspirational! Thank you for showing us around, I'm very excited to have found your channel!
Glad you enjoyed it! :) My view is less colourful now that most of the leaves have fallen but we should get some snow soon and I'll be hanging my bird feeders just outside the window (I have to wait until the bears go into hibernation for the winter or they'll just destroy the feeders :)). Thanks for stopping by!
So wonderful to see another Canadian colourist on here! What a lovely space - and all the pencil crayons too! 😉 Interested in knowing more about your iced tea - what is the brand?
Hello, fellow Canadian! I buy the instant tea powder from a company called Instant Teas: instantteas.com/ A heads-up - the prices will seem super expensive but you only need a 1/4 tsp of the tea powder to make 1 cup of iced tea so a 100g bag will last you a looong time. :) Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for the welcome, Jana! :) I've got a few more videos up - you're welcome to go and check them out, if you like! Just subbed to your channel! :)
Hello and welcome to the colouring community. Than you for sharing your lovely art space. (new subbie also from science background re-finding art later in life).
YT recommended your channel and I'm so glad they did! I'm located in NH and go to Sherbrooke QB quite a few times a year, I'd like to get the info on that instant tea you mentioned. And also, I am so so so jealous of your craft room! What a fantastic space!
So wonderful that you've found my channel - and thank you for your kind words! The iced tea powder is from a company called Instant Teas instantteas.com/. The price for 100g of powder will seem high but you only use 1/4 tsp of powder per cup of tea so a bag lasts a loooong time. :) I do love my colouring space - it makes me happy. :) Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Connie, great first video. Your narration is excellent. I am very curious about the Polychromos Plus and would love to see a video. Looking forward to seeing more from you! Subscribed.
Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I made a video about what's inside my Polychromos Plus case - you can watch it here, if you like. :) ruclips.net/video/DzUBqZWWiJg/видео.htmlsi=2Lu72OarXY98wO8j
Nice colouring space 🎉. And yes, the pigment markers are awesome for colouring! I have the Pitt pens and Zig Brushables, and looking forward to once buy the new Steadtler ones. The fact they don't bleed through the paper and are permanent makes them so great, and on most papers, they don't really streak, which if they do isn't a problem if you use a layering technique.
Thanks, Dieter! You're absolutely right about the pigment markers - there are so many great things about using them for colouring. I hope to do a video soon where I look more closely at the various pigment markers available and show how they can be used for both basing and for shading, as well. :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks for the tour of your lovely space! And thanks for the tip about the gel warmer-I have the same issue with smells. I would love the link to your source for the tea powder. Thanks!
So glad you enjoyed the video! I get the tea powder from a company here in Canada called Instant Teas: instantteas.com/ The prices will look high but you only use a 1/4 tsp of powder per cup of tea so a bag lasts a looooong time. :) Enjoy!
Hello. I am so glad that I found you, by chance, a Canadian colorist merits, my attention being Canadian too. Your voice is very soothing, having chronic pain I can not stand loud voices, I hope that I will learn to use my tools a bit more, I love coloring, and for me colored pencils always were "crayons de couleur" I used to paint acrylic after years of oil to come to coloring, I love that medium. I did gather some tools over the years when sales came. I made the mistake of buying watercolor markers but I can not use them in coloring books, I use them as w/c on w/c paper but I have to come up with my own design or copy. I prefer coloring books I do not have to prick my brain to do something. I kind of get lost in the paper my brain gets a brake. Art is what saved my sanity from years of pain. I will be a new member to you. I did few pages in Marjolein Bastin's book, I love her work a lot and it brings me back to painting, kind of. Sorry for the long post I just wanted to introduce myself and tell you that you are great.
Welcome Connie, Love seeing out your window & your colouring space, I also live out in the countryside in Norfolk UK & this time of year the view is beautiful, I wish more colourists would show their colouring spaces & out their windows, looking forward to watching more of your videos❤ xx I see that you use black pencil cases with white writing, I’ve also done that xx
I love seeing other people's colouring spaces - that's why I thought maybe people might like to see mine. :) And I bet that your spot is absolutely lovely - the UK is such a beautiful place!! And yes - I wrote on the pencil cases with white Posca. :) A "hack" - if you ever need to change a case and want to "erase" the writing, I've found that tracing over the letters a few times with a black Posca makes the previous writing pretty much disappear. :)
@@colouringchemist when I need to change the white posca writing on my black pencil cases I use a little bit of nail varnish remover on a cotton pad, it takes it clean off & then I give it a wipe over with a baby wipe xx
Hi Connie! Welcome to the Coloring Community! I don't have a Channel, but I do Watch RUclips Coloring Channels. Your Coloring Space is Absolutely Amazing and the View is Absolutely Amazing! Thank You for Sharing Your Space and I look forward to seeing Your Videos and Finished Pictures! Have a Wonderful Day!😊💜
Yay! A Canadian you tube channel. Welcome. Yes, pencil crayons. Wish I still had my Laurentien pencil crayons. Where in 🇨🇦are you, if you don’t mind me asking. Subscribed.
Hello, fellow Canadian! I was digging through some of my daughter's old school supplies and found 3 Laurentian pencil crayons - a little blast from the past! :) For privacy reasons, I don't like to say exactly where I am - that's why I keep it to Central Canada. :) Thanks so much for subscribing!
@@colouringchemist Hi. I understand the privacy reasons. Can you do me a favour and compare the Laurentien to the Faber Castel polychromos.? I heard a rumor that they were the same 🤷♀️. Thanks.
Thanks for commenting, Julie! And, you know, I just might get brave and start one of the winter pages in that book. :) If I do, I'll film it as a colour-along and invite everyone to join in. Stay tuned! :)
The algorithm just sent me your way, hi! I too have started uploading my coloring journey on RUclips though I do not quite have the plethora of materials you have oh my gosh! So envious!! =D I'm also in Canada, and would love to know more about that unsweetened iced tea! I love tea and drink a lot of iced tea in the summer but really dislike very sweet teas, so that sounds awesome!
Hello, fellow Canadian! I feel so very lucky and thankful to have so many beautiful supplies - and I feel guilty that I don't use them more. ;) :) I think this will be a lifelong hobby for me, though, so hopefully I have lots of years to give the supplies some love. :) The tea powder is from a company called Instant Teas - this should be a link to their website: instantteas.com/ The powders can be used for hot or cold tea - I love to use them to make iced tea! It will seem like you're paying a lot for a 100g bag of tea powder but you only use a 1/4 tsp of powder per cup of tea so those 100g bags last a looooong time. :) I hope you enjoy them! And thanks so much for stopping by my channel!
Thank you! :) I've been to Scotland once when I was much (much :)) younger but I'd love to go back again someday. Beautiful, beautiful country - and people! :)
Gday from sunny North Queensland Australia 🇦🇺.. I love your colouring space it looks so inviting.. I’ve joined you’d channel look forward for future videos ❤❤❤😊😊😊xxx
Thanks so much for your kind words, Michelle! I've got the binding video recorded - now I just need to edit it and get it uploaded. Hopefully, it should be up in the next few days!
Welcome, fellow Canadian, and thank you so much for subscribing! :) Now I'm sitting here wondering why we call them that - there must be a reason! :D If I end up doing some research and find out, maybe I'll make a video. :)
Great setup! love your view,new subbie. We are all different which is great,so call the pencils what you feel comfortable. Howdy from NorthEast Tx USA.
Thanks so much for your kind words and thanks for subbing! :) When it's -40C here in the middle of winter, you'll have to leave a comment on one of my videos letting me know how your weather/view compares - it'll be quite different from here at that time, I'm sure! :)
Hello Connie, I'm checking out your first video in Sept 2024 haha! I'm interested in the powdered tea... what is the brand you like? (I already watched most of your other videos, they are wonderful. You're a natural teacher!) 🇨🇦🙂
Thanks so much for your kind words! :) The instant tea powder that I drink is from here: instantteas.com/ It seems expensive but you only use 1/4 tsp per cup so a bag lasts a loooooong time. :) Hope that helps! :)

Very nice. I love how you can look out your window and see just nature
Thank you! I love it, too. :)
