Solid advice! Lately I am obsessed with using clear gesso on archivalmat board scraps. It makes a subtly sanded feeling surface. I use the liquitex clear gesso and has a nice grit to it. Have you tried it? Great video!
And breathe.
One of my FAVORITE channels!! I have to listen at .75 speed and it’s perfect. I always learn so much, and I’ve been a professional artist for more than 50 years.
I love an honest review! Lots of ‘reviews’ are fake these days.
People get mad about people using supplies they don't like. Ridiculous 🤦
With the big deal of Prismacolors the last few years, I read it was the perfectly centered cores that are the fakes.
As a watercolor artist professional, Lightfastness matters to me too. Now that I'm pretty much retired with arthritic hands, I'm trying to loosen up and do art for fun. But I still have that built in alarm inside about fugitive pigments. I've studied pigment properties for 15 years and have become a bit of a nerd over them. I even went through all my Polychromos and only use the 3 star pencils. I like doing my own lightfast testing with watercolor pigments so I know the ASTM ratings on all pigments are not always correct. I plan to do a year light exposure to all my paint & pencils that could be questionable. For instance if its a Prussian pigment, I always test because it fades much of the time even though it has a high lightfast rating with ASTM. If in doubt, I just check for myself. Thanks for sharing!
I bought a bunch of prisma pencils from my local community college because they were putting them on clearance like 10 cents a popa while back. To my luck more than half were from when prisma were made by Berol which I believe was in the 80s and omg those were magic in comparison to the newer stuff …like it’s literally night and day…… awesome video btw I really loved this ❤️
Great video! I'm just getting back to my artistic self (finally retired, yay!), so am reorienting to the products now vs. 40-50 years ago. I loved my Prismacolors back in the day, so was very disappointed with the new version. I'm watching videos like this to help me decide on which brand will fit my requirements. I'm so glad to hear that the Derwent Lightfast and Polychromos play nice together, so will go for a small set of each. You're adorable, really enjoy watching, subscribed!
One of my favorite swatches when putting colored pencils on paper is to test it on black paper. When I put the Lyra Rembrandt Polycolor most of the colors almost disappear on it. When I put the Faber Castell Polychromos on black paper it pops up. It is the most opaque oil based colored pencil the closet ones it competes with is the wax based Caran D'ache luminance/ pablo along with derwent colored pencils. I love the artwork you make. My favorite lightfast colored pencils are Derwent Drawing, Caran D'ache luminance, Faber-Castell Polychromos, and Lyra Rembrandt. I like the Rembrandt when I am working on Midtone colors or lightcolors and the others on dark colors. Instead of buying toned paper I make my own with watercolor. My favorite tones are earth colors like yellow earth, red earth, brown earth, and shades of gray.
The best low down on colored pencils on RUclips. Your reviews were concise and accurate. You didn't meander like so many others do. Thank you.
I'm 70 years old and have been tinkering with drawing and painting since I was about 8years old. I'm such a rank amateur...never got to take lessons...but it's something I love doing. All of this great advice is so amazing and helpful . Thank you so much!❤❤
Best Colored Pencil Review on RUclips! I have a Collection of all of these! Polychromos are amazing! Derwent Lightfast are In my top 2. Caran D' Ache Luminance Are My Favorite! My Friends say I have the Biggest Collection of Pencils that they have heard of. I have a Set of Prismacolors but you said my opinion on them already. The Strathmore Drawing Paper is great! Thanks Lisa!
"How many hoops should I have to jump through to get my art supplies to do what they're supposed to do?"
Great video Lisa! I'm so glad you said oil and wax based. I get comments from people saying it doesn't matter and I feel like I've said until I'm blue in the face that there is a noticeable difference in performance and how they react. Love all the explanations as well for why you think each set is great.
I'm out of breath and you're the one talking! Highest word count per minute but also clearest information on pencils. Hilarious and extremely informative. Thank you!! New subscriber 🙋♀️
Thank you Lisa, this has been a fantastic video. I have watched a few of your videos on pan pastels and wondered which pencils would be the best to purchase first. This video has answered that question and so many more I did not know that I had.
Thank you!!! I totally trust your opinion as you sell your art. Plus, your work is beautiful! I really appreciate how you rate the pencils (like light-fastness). I'm hooked! Keep up the good work!
I am a complete newbie! Experimenting with art is my second half obsession, but I LOVE your art! It is amazing! And I wanted to thank you for the great tips as I start this journey! At 58 I will not get anywhere near your expertise, but your tips will absolutely help me to learn and improve. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
This information is so appreciated 🙏🏻. I’ve just started looking into adding pencils to learn to use in my artwork. Love your work and channel, thank you!
