Art Supply Haul (1-29-2024)

[@lacamasprairie]

Thank you for the video! I like to mix Kuretake fluid graphite with my Daniel Smith Watercolors instead of using the Derwent set. You can vary the amount of graphite you add from a little to a lot and it gives a wonderful subtle, earthy look!

@3:17 I love your honesty, it's so refreshing 🤣!!

[@ShadowoftheDude]

12:55 That's what the stopper is for! To store the brush in the case when it's full of water you unscrew the brush and put the stopper back on the reservoir!

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

Correct. I just think it's odd that it doesn't fit when it's put together. ☺

Those ink sticks remind me of Conte crayons...that are pretty popular in art classes. Those Derwent muted colors are really nice...And if you like moody greens, Schmincke makes a beautiful Perelyne Green watercolor that's gorgeous for using in landscapes and foliage. Another recent delightful discovery for me in watercolor is Holbein Indigo. Their formulation is made up of Lamp black, Quin magenta and Phthalo blue. And if you put a deep pink (magenta) next to it, the combination is stunning, but the Indigo all by itself is really beautiful!

Good tip.

[@dianaromig732]

Thank you for your demonstration for products I’ve not seen. 🎉❤

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

You're Welcome ☺

[@zoramay1493]

There are things called pliers which could be used for cleaner openings... Lovely haul ❤

[@LucysArtNSoul]

The excitement you feel, we are right there with you! I’m talking to my phone as I follow along, the colors on the Derwent palette is so beautiful! I want one now! P.S. I am a labeler too! 😂

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

I love my label maker 🙃

[@thatswhatshesaid.literally737]

🤩 So many super fun supplies! I absolutely love that you do nice big, juicy swatches. I have the Derwent Graphitint Watersoluble Pencils and absolutely love them, and now after seeing the graphite watercolors, I'm going to have to get that too. (I can just hear my credit card moaning from my purse.) 😅 Thanks so much for sharing your new supplies and thoughts & opinions, whether a product turns out amazing or not so amazing, it's still fun to watch and learn! 🙏☺️

[@LucysArtNSoul]

I’m right there with ya! I love her videos!

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

Thank you. I'm so happy you enjoy my videos ☺

[@Harkart59]

I love those colors as much as you do. There's a dark purple I really love to sneak into some paintings too. That Dusky blue is such a perfect color. Congratulations on your daughter's marriage💕Thanks for the great video.

[@hurricanekitty6736]

When you’re swatching white, anything pan pastel, watercolor, acrylic etc you should try using a black waterproof marker & just drawing a simple line, this way you can REALLY see the product since you’re not likely to be using white mediums on white substrates. Plus it would make it easier for the viewers of your videos to see. Just a fun suggestion (i do it all the time) ☺️

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

You are correct. I sometimes will do that. ☺

[@LucysArtNSoul]

My color palette is neutral. I love colors that are muted, mixed with a nice touch of Paynes grey also. But I didn’t not know that it was Ultramarine and black! 🤯

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

I love muted colors also. Try mixing burnt umber into your colors to create a warm muted color.

[@welchyv]

Are you using the fluid acrylics as watercolor1? I loved your video. Thanks

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

No. I use Golden High Flow acrylics as I normally use my acrylic paint. It's just thinner.

[@jjsmakeupobsession323]

Are those Golden paints, watercolor? They look to thin to be acrylic.

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

They are acrylic paint that is highly pigmented. They have an ink like consistency.

[@donaart2279]

good

[@nancyloomis3046]

I can't stand bottles of whatever that have those seals on them. The tab they give you to pull is so small that it's almost impossible to open using just your fingers. Like you, I just punch a hole in it and pick it off. It's irritating.

[@ntaylo6299]

Maybe the positive is that most crayons are round? And this is blockish.

[@MyArtSupplyObsession]

I'll find some way to use it. ☺
