    Hello everyone! Welcome back to my channel, my name is Rachel. If you’re new here, PencilStash is a resource for learning all about the world of adult coloring. We do coloring tutorials, colored pencil and other medium technique demonstrations, and inspirational ideas, so.. if that is interesting to you, please consider hitting that like button, subscribing, and checking out the back catalog of videos for other things you may be interested in seeing.
    Now, today, we are going to start with the basics… and this video is really for all those folks out there that are maybe just discovering adult coloring and either aren’t sure where to start or maybe you’ve been coloring for a while but want to up your skills a little bit - this video is a great place to start and my back-catalog is a great place to dig in to dive even deeper.
    And just a caveat… I am not an expert. I’m just someone who has been using colored pencils and coloring for a long time and am just sharing my knowledge and experience, as I have lived it. There’s obviously lots of artistic style and opinion and options out there. This one is mine.

      @@foreva4eva385 I whole heartedly agree! The buttery feel when you put pencil to paper is an experience! I actually tried a school pencil the other day and I quickly tossed it aside. i couldn't stand the drag on the paper! The Prisma pencils enable the newest person to colouring to have success. I also have a 12 set of Faber Castel that I started with, and although they are nice, in my opinion, they just don't behave like the Prisma set. What are your favourite colouring books?

I have about 50 of them, well over 1000 color pencils and markers and I still color like I am a beginner. (I've been coloring in these coloring books for at least 10 years) I wanted to go to the next level but didn't know how. Watching this video shows me that you are the missing link in getting my pages to pop! Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much! I'm a frustrated beginner and I've spent hours watching artists that are way beyond me. I learned more usable information from you than all the others. I like colored pencils and haven't invested in a set of alcohol markers, which I'm told bleed thru pages and over lines, and what I call expensive, is cheap in the marker department. And who wants to buy 2 books so you can do all of 1 book? I went to Amazon and am ordering stuff you recommended. Thanks bunches! 🌻

    • @rauchschwalbelp7693
      @rauchschwalbelp7693 2 года назад +2

      My tip is to copy the image from the coloring book you like and print it on a sheet of paper suitable for your drawing medium. That way I will always have the original and can paint it as often as I want and even in different styles and with different drawing mediums! And if you like alcohol markers and don't want to invest a fortune I would recommend Ohuhu. They have really great markers which some even compare to Copics and they are really cheap, starting from 50ct for these with chisel and bullet tip and 1$ for brush and bullet tip. They are so good and I love them!

You could also get the colour catalogue that goes with it where she has all these swatches and then she tells you what pencil brand goes with it. She’s got prisma color, intense, and a couple more. So you bye the companion book and she does all the work for you, so you don’t even have to guess which colour is the closest. She does it all for you. She’s also adding more now that she’ll be sending out free to people. Who are you on the companion who

    Great video! For beginners who want to use soft wax pencils but need a more affordable option, I suggest Black Widow brand. I’m retired. Pencils get used up and you need to buy more so it can get expensive. I have a set of 36 Prismacolors.but actually prefer my Black Widows. They have 144 colors spread over 7 sets. My cheaper (graphite?) pencils don’t blend. My BWs blend like my expensive Prismacolors. For beginners, blending is a way to make pencil coloring look like it was made with markers. Blending forces the pigment down into the tooth of the paper making it darker, more vibrant, more solid and seamless.

    I can never find coloring books with pictures that aren't crazy busy and pattern-y. I don't understand why every type of subject matter needs to be completely covered in mandala or paisley or stained glass kinds of patterns?! I tend to like changing colors fairly often or else I end up getting bored quickly. I dont want to have to sit and fill in 5,000 tiny sections all in the same or a very similar color just to complete a piece of the picture.

      When I was into adult coloring, I liked to use line reproductions of ancient bas-relief from all over the world. Try, for example, the ones from the remarkable Column of Trajan, still standing in modern Rome. Such images, I think, are much more interesting than the ones which you've referenced.

    Thank you for all the tips, I'm love coloring, and adding my own styles to whatever I'm working with, and here I am at 60 years old LOL
