@16:30 Two things:
1) that Joyce's Mother Violet totally slays me. WOW.
2) i see that as you finding your voice. And it really is that beautiful to see where you started and where you are now (at least in the youtubes)
3) I agree with @MrsBarnabas - never apologize for yourself or your creations
thank u so much jen! thank you for being here all along 🥰 and yeahhh, i know we have similar taste and that mother violet is just Mmm! 😆😁
Glad you did this review. I do like 300gsm paper but some of the fine points you pointed out would set my OCD tendencies on fire. Thank you!
thank you beth :D yeah, i get that, some of the stuff would've bothered me a year ago as well.
I just both the same sketchbook from Aliexpress just hot press paper version. I love it. I painted very soft human face in probably 15 wet-in-wet color layers with drying in between, and the paper performed superbly. With so many water layers even Arches or Fabriano will start to show signs of fatigue. This paper did not. It does look like having very nice sizing in it.
your testing is so much prettier than mine! I just splatter paint everywhere and make messes! Thank you for the review, I am tempted because I need a new sketchbook for just playing around in, I wish all the pages were that rougher texture though, love paper that is super textured.
hi Lili :D thank you for your kind words but splatters are just effective at testing! ;D
@@PaintinHiding Hehe true, but they certainly are not as pretty as your flowers were!
I like your brick wall and cute characters! Don't apologize for having fun in your sketchbook, that's what it's for! It looks like a dragon inside dragon fire. Joyce's mother violet looks similar to DS Rose of Ultramarine but bolder. I like it!
thank you so much Amanda :D
Thank you for being so open with your art. It’s so refreshing.
aww thank u for taking the time to comment, tracey 🥰
This look very similar to my seamiart cotton sketchbook and your comments very similar to what I noticed about mine. I love my sketchbook it's very fun for warmups, swatching and creating small pieces. I loved your painting it turned out so cute and fun to look at 😍
i wonder if it’s a product that experiences white labelling. could be!
those bricks are so pleasing
thank u peacock!❤
Great video Vee, very thorough first impression. I love your picture of you breathing your art fire from your heart it's wonderful. 😍
hehe~ thank you so much Vanessa!
Thank you for the review. I don't mind having 2 different textures in the same sketchbook, as long as the spreads are uniform. They should have folded the sheets alternately in an opposite direction within each signature. This would give all spreads the same texture on the left and right pages. So I guess these sketchbooks are not for me.
hi there Kalicobart :) great! i'm glad the review was helpful even if it means pass up on them!
16:33 spewing creativity
That’s extremely cute and I loved how you did it!
I would love to know different brands with different sizing. I’m interested. I want to see how they are all different. Do you know any videos or websites that talk about it?
OH I LOVE THAT INTERPRETATION! hehe ;P thank you!
@@keepyourshoesathedoor i've never seen someone talk about sizing specifically. however, i know Millford (same company as saunders waterford) is one of the heavy-sized papers. i dont think companies advertise soft-sized papers because no one would buy them lol
Wow that is cheap!!!!!! Very tempting!!!!
17:05 happens also to all of my Clairefontaine Fontaine- and Etival-Sketchbooks 😞
good to know! thank you Sunny! :)
I love that little piece, Vee!! That's totally you 😃 ! I love how from the structure of the wall and precise line your breath just had to spill in a splash of your favorite color)) lol)) so you!
thank you so much loki~ :D i hope u're well yourself. have a good rest of ur weekend!
I really want one of these. I used to bu a block a block of this paper. I really liked it for gouache. But I can't get it's anymore, and I'm way too impatient for ali express. Maybe I'll try it next time I treat myself. 😊
hi elli! hope you're well :)
Arches watercolor paper also has a rougher side for their cp paper. The smoother side is the front
is that their pads or blocks? because i've tried Arches CP, i bought a single imperial size sheet and both sizes were textured the same.
@@PaintinHiding the sheets imperial
I love the paper, really good quality for the price, not bad at all...
hi Ali :D glad you agree ~
I'm listening to your videos while scrolling through Jackson's website and it was such a surprise to hear my name during this video. But that is a very pretty color. Joyce's Mother Violet. I'm going to check that out. Thanks so much for your videos! Your content is so helpful!
haha~ what a happy coincidence ;P i have a jackson's 2022 sale summary video if u want to see the overview of jackson's watercolour related sales. :) aww thank you for your kind words. have a great weekend!
thanks to your video , i grabed one of those on Ali express last week end . with two "semi art "travel brush . i'm excited to play with my new watercolor treasures . 🤩
i have a semiart travel brush as well, did a vid on it long ago. you'll love it ;D
@@PaintinHiding everything arrive this morning. I love both the brushes and the sketchbook. Thank you 😘.
@@bleuvertetforetdepin7308 oh yay! glad u like them :D i'm having fun using the sketchbook too :D
Thanks for the splendid review. I saw the Potentate sketchbook and was contemplating whether to buy or not. I guess I have come to a conclusion after watching your video. I will buy one solely for practice, swatching, small projects etc., but I'll have a better quality paper (on stand by) for more 'serious' work. 🤭
glad u found the review useful :D
I was hesitant to buy this since i seen a lot of reviews said not worth the upgrade or just get another brand if you want a 100% cotton, while I’m fine with cotton or not ( hahnemuhle britannia is my fav for celulose paper ) texture definitely plays into it as well, so if each page is a different texture i probably will not get it
same here. i used to be soooo bothered by different textures on one spread. arteza is like that too 😓
that super like doesn't exist for me!! I looked and looked!
does it not show on any of my videos or just this one? hmm… i had one person use it just once and they said it was easy. im not sure what’s wrong. thank u for your consideration though, i appreciate it!
@@MrsBarnabas Yes, that THANKS button is the one i'm talking about. RUclips calls it Super Thanks. I don't see any red hearts though. Just a regular heart with a dollar sign inside. If people want to 'support/donate' during livestreams, in the live chat bar, they call it Super Chat. I know, all this terminology is so unnecessary.
@@MrsBarnabas i know! GRRR!! indeed!! rawrrrrr! :P
If I have stuff in my cart at Jackson’s is there a way to put in your affiliate link that way?
hi horsewoman :) jackson's doesn't currently have that system in place. if you'd like to tie your order to my affiliation (not sure how to word all this).... then the easiest way is to make sure you have all you need in your cart, then click on any of my affiliate links. it should most likely tie us together :) the URL link will end with f3173935ed8ac4bf073c1bcd63171f8a ... hope this helps. thank you so much for considering using my link, i really appreciate it 🥰
Thank you for the review. I just stumbled upon this on Ali and wondered if this one is nice. I am bummed (and expected) that it's not literally 100% cotton like Baohong. I wonder does the water seep through instantly and smoothly like an actual cotton paper? How many glazes can it handle and would the paints be removed if you layer over them? This book may look like one of those fun practice books but I like quality.
no, water didn’t seep through instantly. if that were the case, that means there is no sizing. this one has SOME sizing but not as much as standard watercolor paper. i did not test how many glazes it can handle. would paint be removed if u layer, that’s hard to say as it also depends on what pigment you’re painting with.
Thank you for offering such a detailed review on a less-common product. I've seen these on Temu and wondered at the quality. Now I know! Have your opinions on this sketchbook changed a few months later?
just watched it again, my opinions remain the same :)
Good to know, thanks.
You're an artist so that's you vomiting up color into the world to make it a prettier place!😁😁
oh wow, i love that interpretation too!!! NICE!
I've never ordered from Aliexpress. Do they combine shipping from the same seller or is that just not a thing?
im not sure if one seller can have multiple shops. but if you’re buying from the same shop, i think it’s automatically combined. i dont quite remember as i havent ordered from aliexpress in a long while 😅
Five months later, how are you liking the sketchbook now? Has your opinion changed at all?
thanks for checking in Klyn! i actually liked it a lot for experimenting and loose florals, like in this video, that i finished it in a few months. my opinion hasn’t changed. hope that helps!
All these links are for 12x12 cm not 16cm
i bought mine on taobao. i couldn't find 16x16 on aliexpress so maybe no sellers are selling those or the 12x12 might be a newer version. i dont know. i just tried to find the ones closest to it.
@@PaintinHiding I know. I just wanted people to be aware it’s smaller. I looked too. Tfs
