We can definitely see how skill and experience with traditional watercolor can enhance your results with these pens. The colors seemed to activate really well with water and flow a lot like tube or cake paints. We loved the demonstration piece- fun image that showed off the medium well. Very nice!
Thank you very much! Yes, I think the use of watercolor techniques like mixing and blending helps a lot!
An actual review with use of the product I want to know about and not some comparison or yawn swatch. Outstanding! Great pic too👍
Gives an idea of use & what can be done with just these 10 WC markers
This was so much fun! Your painting is beautiful and brought back some lovely memories for me. I had a Standard Poodle named Mac and he loved sticking his head out the window, but poodles are known for having eye problems, so I bought him a set of goggles and a hat and he loved them. He used to bring them to me to put on because he knew they meant "car ride", lol.
Aw, this is just the sweetest story!
Hello Emily, I downloaded your free animal guide, and thank you so much for putting this together. It's so easy to read and understand and the explanations are fantastic. You have put so much work into it, and I just wanted to say thank you. ❤
Thank YOU, Nikkia! I appreciate the kind feedback!
wtf how are you such a good artist
-freehanded drawing the dog sketch
-scribbling and then truning it into photorealistic dog fur
-adding black to the glasses fearlessly
Hah, thank you!
Fun, informative and inspiring! Thank you, Emily!
Thanks for the nice comment, Susan!
wow they are great thank you for this demo 😀
Any time!
Thanks for your honest and practical reviews 🥰😊🌸
My pleasure 😊
Love it! Love how you painted the goggles!
Thank you so much 😀
My favorite store! I have since off the markers, but haven’t really tried them, so this video inspired me 😁
They are FUN!
Thank you for your review. I got the Faber-Castell watercolour pencils and they are gorgeous. Used them on the plane, from UK to Dubai and thoroughly enjoyed using them. Definitely will get the Faber-Castell Watercolour Markers, also got the Winston and Newton Promarker watercolour, they were a dream to work with.
Nice! Sounds like you are SET! :)
Arghh! Now you made me to buy these markers! 😉 Great video, thank you! 🌻
My pleasure!
Thx for good demo!
ill have try those sometime looks like fun
It was fun!
Gorgeous! I'm too scared to make the investment in any kind of markers! I'm perfectly content watching you use them for now! Thank you for the free download, it's very generous of you and as a beginner I really appreciate it ❤
My pleasure!
I can see these perfect for doing some layout and colour tests.
so nice painting❤️😍
Great technique, Emily!
Thanks!
Lovely dog painting! Those markers seem fun, I wanna try that too😍😍
You should try them! So fun!
I didn't even know that Faber-Castell had watercolour markers, I have the FC. watercolour pencils and they are great. Thank you Emily you are talented with a lovely personality ❤👍🏾🙂
Thank you so much!
Very good demo..i was hoping you would demo blending😁 good job. Thank you
You’re welcome 😊
great job with the eye behind the doggles plastic protector!
Thanks! That part was fun!
Thanks for the tip on the water color markers. I think your correct about water color markers and water brush for traveling. Or sketching out and about.
Thanks for the heads up
JimmyJo
You are so welcome!
Beautiful doggo=) Fun markers, I have a couple of ecoline ones - I've learned a couple of tricks I wanna try now=3
Go for it!
Hello Emily. Thanx for the great review on these markers. Now I absolutely need these in my stash! 🙃 than you for enabling me to purchase these. I'm very impressed with how they move and don't leave harsh lines. I'm curious to know if you can color with them and then leave it, let's say overnight, and come back to them and reconstitute them. Sometimes I can't complete a project all at once...... Thank you again 😊
Because they are water based, you can reactivate them any time! I think it is easier to get a seamless blend if you use water right away--but yes--you can definitely set the project aside and come back to it!
Thank you Emily. You have inspired me to buy some not only for myself but for a friend who is similarly confined. Only question is which Amazonto use from Gozo. xxxxx
Oh I struggled with these so bad. Also with the Winsor & Newton ones. They have pigment information on them and only come in 12 colors which still offers a good range of colors. I love the dog painting.
There is a bit of a learning curve, I think! Using traditional watercolor techniques to blend and soften does help!
Not gonna lie, these markers look really great! I’ve had my eye on them for a bit.
It looks like they solve my issues with markers: water-based markers are lightfast (FC Pitt Artist pens) but are super streaky, whereas alcohol markers (thinking Copic here) are super smooth but not lightfast! 😂
These are water-based and lightfast and you can fix the streaks by adding water! Great! 🙀
Yay! I truly had NO complaints about these!
Wow! Usually I'm not pleased with watercolor items like this bc the pigment always leaves a mark but I'm happy to see these dissolve quickly. But Aiiii I don't need anymore art supplies but I really want these, haha! Would love you see them used on landscapes and urban scenes. :D
Great idea! I'd like to try that too!
These look great for plane travel.
Ooh, I agree!
I swear I did smell Christmas tree and hot cocoa . I feel like a happy watercolor kid 😁.
Aw yay!
In Australia you can only get the 12, 24, 48, 60 I just ordered the 60 set like 2 days ago
Thanks for enabling my art supply stash, now I NEED these.
Have you ever tried the Karin markers? I’m curious how they compare.
I've had my eye on Karin markers for a while but haven't tried them!
Im impressed by your color mixing with such a limited selection :0
Question-which paper is in your spiral sketchbook you used for searching the FC watercolor markers? I enjoy watercolor markers but typically get hard lines. It looks like your swatches blended very very well. Do you think that’s due to the water brush or the paper?
Good question! For the swatches I used Strathmore 500 series cotton cold pressed paper, and for the painting I used a smooth Arches hot pressed cotton paper--two very different surfaces. I think it's the quality of the ink that allows it to blend well with water and a brush.
@@EmilyOlsonArt thank you! Maybe I’ll dive in and try some. The only place I saw that it didn’t thoroughly blend was the blue in the upper right. I’ve found that I can only work in very small sections-I need to get the watercolor marker wet to blend before it sets in the paper.
That said, your demo sure highlighted how GOOD these markers are! Very tempting…🎅🏼
😍😍😍😍😍😍
Will they activate if you do the drawing and come back later or do you have to blend before they dry right away?
Because they are water based, they will reactivate, even after drying completely. :)
Please tell me name of the white color ❤
I think I would make a mess with these markers, I can just see everything merging together into a big blob....... I think I will leave these to the professionals. Thanks for the video and review of this product.
Of course!
I wonder if they are better than the Ecoline ones? I’ve not really tried many Watercolor markers. Thank you for inspiring us all 😊
I did like these better than Ecoline, for some reason--although they perform much the same. I think I like this color selection (for a set of 10) a little better.
Ecoline markers are not lightfast, and are dye based instead of pigment based. So they’re kind of a different animal.
@@EmilyOlsonArt hmm 🤔 yes I’m thinking I’d come to the same conclusion as I’ve recently discovered that Ecoline are not lightfast…… that’s a problem for me
@@fruitypebbles803 hi 👋
Yes, I recently discovered this fact which has put me off even trying them because I can get the same vivid results from Inktense pencils which once dry are permanent and lightfast, very vivid and bright. Thank you ☺️
You live near Milwaukee? I live in Milwaukee!!
We were just visiting. 🙂
Stop using Amazon!! For God's sake. Let's live in a world with real stores.
@Captain_MonstarFart That's the problem though there are no art shops left or very few so we have no choice
The one here (big name store) actually charges more for items in the store than on their Amazon site ... at least $10 more ... also, the store has a lot less stock of the products they sell on line. So, nope. Sign of the times. Wish it weren't so ... but this isn't a culture that values learning, knowledge, the arts, and science. "Dragon sickness" prevails sadly.
Meh...😐
