I would like to thank you for sharing different kinds of blending with the Neocolors. You mentioned some techniques that nobody that I have watched so far mentioned or come close to it. Thank you. Your expertise in blending will definitely help many others.
Hi Zanet! Thank you so much I’m so happy you enjoyed this tutorial and found it helpful! Enjoy your Neocolor Iis 🩷
Enjoyed your process. I didn't realize that that paper would tolerate water. I love my Neo2's. Actually did a piece on canvas with them (bit of a texture challenge). Love your big set😊 . Got mine piecemeal from Blick. They're a good filler if your order is short a few bucks. Thanks for your great explantions as you go.
You’re so welcome! I couldn’t agree more with what you said. These are so easy to build sets bit by bit and even having just a few in your art supplies is really a neat addition! I bet using them on canvas was a lot of fun😍 I really love this Canson Sand Grain paper. It is quite affordable and so versatile! Thanks for watching. I appreciate your comments.👩🏻🎨❤️
Glad you love the neo 2s as well. Here is a trick after working a few years w them (warm water) doesn't stay warm too long in a bowl. But suck up very warm water into a water brush and shake squeeze out a little on paper towel to clean an d prep, now dab a little on the colors drawn on the paper and swipe it quickly over the color for a quick even melt. You use less water and the layer will dry faster. More more! You do a fine tute! So inspiring.
Hi Onna! Thanks for watching and commenting! So happy you enjoyed this tutorial💜 what a great tip! Thank you I think that would be helpful while using the Neo 2s en plein air!!
So fun to watch you use the Neocolor II crayons. I’m gonna get mine out and play! Thanks so much!
Hi Kathryn! Thanks so much🤠Enjoy!
The best illustration on the use of Neocolor ll.

@@artonthecreek Hope you can also post on how to use Neocolor I. I have it in my cabinet for a long time and wish to use them too.
I certainly can! Look for that in August💗
@@artonthecreek 😀 will wait for it.
Thank you for sharing this video. I love Caran d’ Ache Neocolor ll’ s and I haven’t found much information on how to use them. I like how your crocus flower, in snow, out and I’m going to try my hand at painting a daffodil in the same manner. The water 💦 drop instructions were great. Thank you, Fran
Hi Fran! I’m so happy you found this tutorial useful. Enjoy painting your daffodil! Should be lovely💛
You combined my 2 favorite art supplies: Neocolor IIs and sand grain paper. I never thought of combining them! Very informative. Thanks!
Hi Diane! Thank you so much! Im a huge fan of both as well! I’m so happy you found this informative🤠 If you’d like to see my other Sand Hrain/Neocolor II video (my review of the Neocolor IIs) & you haven’t yet seen it, here’s the link: ruclips.net/video/uMBZBmvxSRY/видео.html
Such a pretty crocus, I have had these NeoColors for a while and only used them maybe twice. I need to play with them again.
Hi Laura! Thank you so much I’m so happy you enjoyed this! It’s funny-every time I use these NeoColors I think of them as the perfect art medium….you can draw and paint at the same time and they can be manipulated like gouache OR pastels! The perfect combo! Happy painting-I hope you create lots of beautiful art with your Neocolor IIs❤️
Very pretty work! Thank you for sharing I’ve been using my Neocolor II this week too! these are so much fun to create with.
Thank you! Aren’t they fun?! I’m happy you’re enjoying yours too.
I loved your video. I have just started experimenting with water soluble oil pastels. I learned a lot. One question I have is about the paper. Is it a toned Canson mixed media paper or the Canson sanded that is commonly used for soft pastels.
Hi Patti! The paper I used for the crocus is the Canson XL Sand Grain Dry Mixed Media paper. So little water is used that this paper works very well for this project. Enjoy painting!🤠
@@artonthecreek thanks for clearing that up.
No problem! My apologies for any confusion❤️
very beautiful !! may i ask witch pencil sharpener you used for your all pencil ??
Hi Natasha! Thank you! The pencil sharpener I used is the Derwent:

I have one I like even better-but laziness won out and I reached for the Derwent, my #2 choice. It’s a great sharpener, but I really like my AFMAT long point for most things. Here is a link to my video of pencil sharpener reviews if you are interested. You’ll find links to several sharpeners in that video description:

Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I’m glad you enjoyed this tutorial💜
Can you share what pencil sharpener you used
Hi Skatch! Sure thing! In this video I used the Derwent Super Point Manual... www.amazon.com/dp/B00CA15DIQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share You should be able to find them at many retailers.
I have a review on pencil sharpeners if you are interested: ruclips.net/video/yKzSLSyCnVM/видео.html
