Watercolour pencils really are a unique medium 😊

[@paintingandchocolate]

Yes and you can paint anything with them!

[@greekveteran2715]

I totally agree! Watercolor pencils is an underrated medium! I personally sketch with Faber Castell graphite Aquarelle, which are by far the best pencils I've ever used and I've tried literally everything! I also got some Faber Castell Albrecht Durer and some Koh-I-Noor Mondeluz (because of their unique colors) like their Reddish Brown which such a nice color (people who love Red Chalk (Sanguine) will love this color too, because it's similar!! Paper works better than expected, actually looks really good! Thanks for sharing, you did a great job!!

[@paintingandchocolate]

Thank you so much! The pencils you are describing sound interesting 🙂 Thank you for sharing!

[@PaulaScardamalia]

I am so grateful for your videos using watercolor pencils. I have a set of 36 from Faber Castell and want to use them more but felt a little intimidated by them. Your tutorials are so helpful. I am taking some on my June trip to Ireland/Scotland and hope to put them to good use. Thank you.

[@paintingandchocolate]

You're welcome, more to come with them 🙂 a trip to Ireland and Scotland sounds great, I want to go back!

Beautiful effects. Lovely graceful and translucent betta fish! Wow, I didn't know they made a palette specifically for colored pencils! For smooth washes, I always use the method of touching the damp brush to the pencil tip then brushing it across the paper. Works great!

[@paintingandchocolate]

Yes it does, it's so good!🙂

[@helgam.dragosits2197]

it's great to watch you during the prozess. you are very considered where you put your lines and points of color. this sketchbook seems to be good for techniks with water.

[@paintingandchocolate]

Yes Helga I'm enjoying it so far even though it's not cotton.

My wife got me a set of Cool Bank 160 Watercolor pencils for my birthday. Love watching your videos. They are always full of tips and tricks. I bought the pallet (2:50) and it will be here Wednesday. Can't wait...

You're welcome 🙂

[@ArtOfDan9908]

Awesome.

[@paintingandchocolate]

Thank you

[@weekend_art]

Yaaay, you bought the palette 😊 Wonderful fish! I really like S&B Beta, but recently I wanted to try toned paper with gouache and watercolor pencils. So I bought Nova trio with black, grey and beige papers. And it’s thinner paper but not bad at all. Have you tried toned paper?

[@paintingandchocolate]

Ah no but I was tempted by them 🙂 and yes for the palette, I love it!

[@stevendavis7628]

Wonderful tutorial and beautiful painting! It might be interesting to add a "clock" to show elapsed time..my sense is that you are very productive with watercolor pencils. I'm looking forward to where you take this next!

[@paintingandchocolate]

Thank you Steven! I painted more today 🙂 but it's my occupation so it's normal I paint often 😉

[@Nasauniverse001]

Brilliant

[@paintingandchocolate]

Thank you Janis, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@shirleyf21916]

so beautiful!!! i have these pencils but i was using them differently, thank you so much for these very helpful tips❤

[@paintingandchocolate]

You're welcome 🙂

[@sandrarahimi5688]

Hello It may have been listed somewhere, but I could not find the answer. What are the brushes you are using?

[@paintingandchocolate]

Silverbrush black velvet 4 and 6. I listed them all with links in my kit.co store that you can find in the description, in my favorite watercolor supplies category.

[@sassycat378]

Thank you for another discussion on using pencils in interesting ways. Are you aware that Derwent has brought out 28 new Inktense pencils bringing them up to 100. I believe some of the colours are direct from the paint pan sets.

[@paintingandchocolate]

Ah yes I saw that but it seems they're hard to find online at the moment ((keeping my eyes on them!)

[@sassycat378]

@@paintingandchocolate Apparently you can buy them direct from Derwent and receive a free tin if you buy 12 or 24. They are a bit to expensive for me once shipping to Australia is included.

[@PhyllisATaylor]

What brand of brushes are you using?

[@paintingandchocolate]

SilverBrush and Raphaël. I noted all references in my supplies section in the video description.

[@evelinepeterhans4873]

Can't watercolour soak into the palette that the watercolour becomes contaminated with much use? I have heard that you need porcelain palettes instead of plastic ones. I have seen that the caran d'ache palette is made of plexiglas. But i don't know how plexiglas behaves.

[@paintingandchocolate]

I haven't had issues with it so far.

[@evelinepeterhans4873]

@@paintingandchocolate thak you very much for the quick answer.

[@sofreader]

Where did u got that palette? 🤩

[@paintingandchocolate]

Amazon, you will find a link to it in my kit store (look in my description)

[@nouveauart3503]

Fantastico!!!

[@paintingandchocolate]

Thank you
