I love inktense but have made all of these errors to varying degrees. Excited to try them again with some new knowledge! Thank you!
This is a useful video for using correctly any watercolour pencils!
Thank you 😊
Your work and books that are all hand done is a great inspiration.
All the nice hand writing to describe the nature you have captured with artistic beauty.
These books are priceless. I so love your work.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much for such a lovely comment 🙂
I bought some more inktense pencils today. I'm slowly building up my collection. I've not used them yet but I have made the mistake with watercolour of not letting an area dry before adding a new colour. A mistake I'll be aware of while using inktense.
Thanks for the tips :)
Nice! Yeah, it is just like watercolour in that respect, really worth being that extra little bit patient 😊
Many thanks! You reminded me to use my 36 pk. Inktense. Love your videos. Watching from New Zealand.
Brilliant, hope you enjoy them! 😊
Although I love watercolours and most of my work is watercolours I love your videos 😊
Thank you for watching 😊
Great tips for beginners like me. Thank you
You're welcome! 😊
I’ve never heard of these style of pencils. I’m not great with watercolor but there seem like an extremely appealing middle ground between watercolor and something like markers, which I prefer. I love that you can layer without the colors reworking.
They definitely are, they suit me much better than watercolour. Might be worth a try for you 😊
I've definitely overloaded and given up because I don't like the intense colours (I know they are called inktense for a reason! Thanks for the useful video.
You're welcome - they can be made very soft and subtle when you know how 😊
beautiful job in teaching. Thank you.
You're welcome 🙂
thanks i love my inktense pencils
Glad to hear that, thanks for watching 😊
I think I have made each of those mistakes, but no more… yes I would like to learn more, please let me know when you have any new U-tube videos.
I don't think I can let you know exactly, but you can subscribe and hit the notification bell, then RUclips will notify you 😊
Thanks.
Thanks, great tutorial 🎉
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Wax bloom when using the pencils for final details…there’s a shine like with colored pencils and it doesn’t look right. How to avoid that issue?
Hmm, well I never use them without water as I don't really think that is what they are intended for. If I were to add final details in a pencil, I would probably opt to do it in Procolour or another dry wax coloured pencil 😊
which waterbrush do you recommend ?
I prefer the Arteza ones but watch this space as next month's planned video is all about water brushes 😃
