It’s always worth watching my videos to the end… you never know who might show up! 😉

[@mjpete27]

Yes! Very well done! I am looking forward to seeing your next video even more if that was even possible! See ya then!

[@sakshinash]

Omggggggggggg losing my mind!!!!!! So excited for the collab!

[@terijimenez4357]

Love your channel!! I'm a beginner artist who mostly enjoys coloring in adult coloring books as a hobby and I've learned so much from watching your videos. I really enjoy Kerby Rosanes' adult coloring books and had a question for u. Which color pencils do u think wud work best for his books? I've recently watched ur review of color pencils and was just wondering what u personally thought wud be best (for a beginner who values vibrancy and budget)? Also have u considered drawing from one of his books (if u haven't already) or reviewing one for ur channel? Thanks again!!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

@@terijimenez4357 I’ve bought a few of his books but haven’t started any yet! So I don’t have any specific recommendations, except that I’ve found Prismacolor and Arteza are pretty good in most books.

@@SarahRenaeClark ok thank you so much!!! And again, love your channel, keep up the awesome work

[@debiw8599]

11:35 - So THAT'S what those super cluttered pages are for! All they normally do is cause a spike in my anxiety because the amount of stuff on the page is so overwhelming. Now I have a place to start with those. Thank you for showing this, Sarah!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

I was tempted to add more detail, but thought “No! This is a 10 minute activity. And this makes it accessible for anyone” and I really like the effect! Glad it provided some inspiration!

[@blackrose538]

I'm looking forward to that collab! Personally I'm not a fan of the create something everyday idea, it stresses me out and since I do art as a hobby to relax and unwind (amongst other hobbies that I have) I usually don't ever finish challenges like this. Anyway, have fun everyone who does these!

[@emerana]

I downloaded her freebie 30 days of flowers with tracker which is a teaser to this release. I didn't let it dictate when I coloured them. What's worked for me is simply having smaller elements to attack, instead of a huge page or double page spread which can be discouraging as lovely as they are

[@blackrose538]

@@emerana like I said, I do art whenever I feel like it. I'm not a fan of these 30/31 day challenges, because I don't always have the time to draw or paint nor the motivation and that's okay. The idea behind 30 days of is to do it continuously, like she says in her book and while that might work for some people, it's not for everyone. Sure, I know it's not a must-do-it-that-way kinda thing and get that. In this case, though... I'm. also not really a fan of doodling. Just can't seem able to do it 😅

[@shadowguard3578]

@@blackrose538 I hear you. I do generally color everyday, but I don’t like to color or draw under pressure. I work at my own pace because the idea of a timed activity stresses me out, and removes the fun out of the activity. It can take me a long time to finish a coloring page, but that’s fine with me.

[@blackrose538]

@@shadowguard3578 I basically work the same way :) Ideally, I would like to do something creative every day, because it's a lovely way to wind down from the day, but I have so many different hobbies (mostly gaming and sewing) with the same outcome that art just isn't always at the top of the list :D That being said, I respect everyone who tries these challenges or concepts. They can be a great way to start a hobby for someone who just wants to try things out

[@shadowguard3578]

@@blackrose538 I completely understand what you’re saying. I have the attention span of a goldfish and I’m easily distracted. Sometimes after an hour of sitting in front of my coloring page I might have only colored a leaf or something equally small 😆. However, I’ve watched KZbin creators doing coloring livestreams who have accomplished so much more in an hour! 😅

What a fabulous review of Johanna's new book. I am looking forward to you collab with Jazza!

[@AnimeBlaze-qi4jx]

I just love Johanna's books. Been colouring in them since high school; I really needed that therapy. Some of my favourites are "Magical Jungle" and "Enchanted Forest". She has drawn some fantastic and beautiful illustrations over the past years, and she definitely has changed her style a bit in her recent books. I am so excited to get my hands on this one XD.

[@BarbBColorReader]

Her last book, Worlds of Wonder, is my favorite, but all are great. ALL pencils do marvelous in here. Johanna swears by Staedtler Ergosoft, also Prisma, Polychromos, Black Widow and many others do. My favorite budget pencil in her books are Castle Arts, 120 colors

[@B1rdLadee]

Just wanted to say: I came here from Lindsey W’s channel (the frugal crafter). KZbin has been recommending your videos to me for months, but I wasn’t into colored pencils at the time, so I passed them over. Recently a friend gifted me a bag of art supplies from a family member who had died. Among them was a number of colored pencils. They were a very random collection from Crayola, Prang, and other ‘cheap’ brands (though I’m positive no children have ever used them), and most are close to 15 or more years old. So I figured I would take a look at your videos, just to see. In the span of a month I’ve binged on your videos, subscribed, and rekindled my love for coloring from when I was little. I don’t know if I’ll keep up with it, but I have been thoroughly enjoying myself. I even colored along with your first live from start to finish, no breaks, simply because I was enjoying the chat. Also, your reviews and swatching tutorials have kept me from impulse buying (which I am very prone to). Just wanted to say thank you for the great content and inspiration. Keep up the good work! 💝

[@geek_aflame]

I love the art in her colouring in books. When I decided to learn how to draw, I saw her "How to Draw Inky Wonderlands" book and instantly brought it. It's been a great book so far as someone who has some past drawing experience but missed some basic techniques in school. It's a great way to practice the skills/techniques I'm learning.

[@blooelmo]

Love Johanna's books! Her book 'How to Draw Inky Wonderlands' is another awesome mix of colouring and how to draw, but my all time favourite is still the 'Secret Garden'.

I've never had a Johanna's book because they are too 'busy' and I don't enjoy that. However, I noticed 'Color Outside the Lines' and I wonder what the suggestion is on the left. Oh, well...there is another page by page on KZbin, so I will look there. She does do beautiful work.

[@SarahRenaeClark]

This is a good starting book if you find her other books too busy. It’s a lot simpler and the projects are bite-sized so you don’t have to do a whole page at once. That’s why I like it!

[@prachishilajiya8030]

😊😊

[@lisasallery7860]

Question: I have been doing what you’ve previously said about picking 5ish colours to help ensure I am using complementary colours. But! Am I cheating if I also use other coloured pencils as often, those in the colour palette. I do try to choose other colours that are either a lighter or darker shades xx

The first thing I bought when I was back to my art journey was the secret garden, the book was not for me however because I find very frustrating the coloring process of a thing I didn't draw. We have the Staedleter pencils here in Brazil, my friend gave to me a box of 72 but I don't know why, Staedleter don't make good pencils, which is a shame because every other product of them is awesome ! ... THE JAZZA COLAB IS COMING, ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN !

[@SarahRenaeClark]

I wasn’t a big fan of the pencils either, although I only used them briefly to color the first mug in this book. I’ll review them better in a future video. I’ve already moved to my Prismacolors for the rest of these challenges!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

All you’ll need is a fineliner, a greylead pencil, an eraser, and some colored pencils. The brands that were included in the gift were all from the same company that sponsors Johanna, so not necessarily the company I’d personally recommend, which i why I didn’t include those links 😊

[@unboundbytiffany]

[@kai7241]

Hi Sarah Just came across your channel & I’m obsessed 😮. Would this book be any good for an absolute beginner who gets anxiety even trying to pick out what colours to use, the whole purpose of wanting to colour is to help with anxiety. I’m not at all creative or can you recommend something else? 😊

[@sydneykramer8677]

[@elizabethrector8205]

Hey Sarah....received my book this week and I am already discouraged because I don't own some of the supplies she suggests. I already had the Ergosoft and the pencil sharpeners. Suggestions appreciated!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Any pencils are fine, and then I would suggest some kind of black gel pen or fineliner and greylead pencil. That’s really all you need!

[@Jomac87]

I would like JB to send her new books to different colourists now and again!!! Not to be a negative Nelly but I bought a 12 set of those pencils and you can forget about blending and layering with them.......just my opinion, all you JB fans can calm down, I'm allowed an opinion strangely enough!!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

This is the first book I’ve ever received from JB, so she HAS sent her book to someone different by sending one to me.

[@SunKissedPeach]

What's the difference between super soft pencils and hard regular ones?

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Harder pencils are usually more difficult to blend and sometimes scratch the paper. It’s a generalization, but usually softer pencils are wax-based and creamier, making them great for blending

[@WinnieFinesse]

Ooo those pencils were the only ones for sale in my town recently apart from mega expensive ones... Interested to see what you say!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

I didn’t really like them, but I only used them for about 2 minutes in her book. I’d like to try them on other paper but didn’t have the time. I’ll take a closer look in a future video. I wouldn’t rush to buy them though 😉
