[@laurazielinski1256]

I like how you can see the history of the marks or the original colors even with some layering.

[@artprof]

Yes, that optical mixing is so satisfying! -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist

[@suzishapiro9867]

These look similar to kids gel crayons. I love those for quick sketches like timed drawings. Intense color. Fast to apply. Fast to dry. Layers can work well. Not opaque. I am sure they aren’t lightfast. Sketch tools.

[@artprof]

Thanks for sharing!! -Prof Lieu

[@patinalake2087]

How about do a video section of using tempera sticks to draw? Suggested brands: Pencil Grip's Kwik Stix for the regular size tempera sticks, and We R Makers Pigment Pens for small sized tempera sticks. Advantage: Not expensive, safe, non-toxic, dry quickly, very accessible, can be used on various surfaces. I suggest you to try on canvas, thick sumi-e paper, hot press watercolor paper etc. Why do I suggest: I think these products can be so much more than just children's art supply. And they are very easy to carry for traveling and outdoor use.

[@artprof]

Ooh amazing suggestion!! We'll keep that in mind - Mia, Art Prof Staff

[@GingahSnapsArt]

Hugely helpful! Thank you

[@artprof]

Glad it was helpful!-Prof Lieu

[@JenniferNoelle]

Bought a bunch of these on clearance at Michael's a few years ago, because Clara would talk about using crayons! I've only used them for live figure drawing.

[@artprof]

we are frequently "accused" of sending people to the art store😂-Prof Lieu

[@ritawilbur6128]

Argh! I was introduced to these from an art subscription box. I got a lot of them, was intrigued by them, but could never quite figure out how to make them work. Then I discovered Neocolors, fell in love with THOSE, and got rid of all my Marabus. Ah well.

[@artprof]

I'd have to spend more time with these, but my first impression is that I like the Neocolors better! -Prof Lieu

[@IronEarthDesigns]

I never used tghe, but I like the neatness. luv pastels but the mess...My major concern would be how quickly they get used up.

[@artprof]

yes it seemed like there wasn't much crayon inside the holder? I imagine they wouldn't last long either! -Prof Lieu

[@shadrackrolle8461]

Hi what paper do the Marabu C rayons goes well with?

[@FatLava]

I suspect they’d preform best on cold-press water color paper

[@artprof]

I used cold press wc paper, I'd be curious what they are like on a smoother surface! -Prof Lieu

[@rebeccabroberts4849]

I think that they dry after a short amount of time.

[@artwithalexander5359]

i have run into so many walls trying to talk to people. i get good feedback but asking questions it seems like they just shut down. the doors shut and suddenly my work is "nice" but they have better things to do. the nicest guy i have had contact with has been dead for a while. he was fallowing my deviant account and apparently one of his sons? took over the account and it was years before i knew he was dead. i was actually kind of angry because they just carried on as if he was alive. nothing on his art page or anything. i found out because of a random advert on youtube. i do have a pretty good repor with an art teacher and watercolor artist from england. as for horror posters i think you might like posters for pearl. not a horror fan, but the commercials i have seen are so colorful and you can see so much emotion from the "villain". i am still invisible so i have not gotten any critics, i would even be happy to see critical comments because someone noticed LOL

Please try the Crayola Colors of the World. A 24 pack is $1.50 at Family Dollar, and Dollar General, so anyone can afford them.

[@artprof]

Great suggestion, thank you! -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist

[@RoyOrbisonsElvisTape]

@@artprof I love them, not just for being a great skin tones set, but for placing highlights, and reflection in hair, and for animals. And thank you for liking my low budget semi pushy, semi unrelated request.

[@alycejarred8628]

​@@RoyOrbisonsElvisTape Well, I have no say/input/connection regarding the channel, so idk whether we'll see them here, ...🤷 BUT your recommendation did, indeed, totally convince ME to give em a try! 🤓😁 (Love finding a decent, inexpensive art supply- ESPECIALLY when it comes with good neutrals/semi-realistic-skintones.🎉) So, THANK YOU for your Suggestion!🙏🩵 You just made a random online stranger very happy.🤭 It sounds like these could potentially be a very interesting/ "unexpected," relatively convenient, super available&accessible, extremely user-friendly, SUPERRR affordable, & ULTRA WIDELY-USEFUL tool to add to my ever-growing array of supplies to utilize in all kinds of sketchbook and/or mixed media projects.🥳🎉 So many ideas for things/Methods/Applications/Combinations I want to Try Out with these, ALREADY, lol! I can't wait to get these & start experimenting!!🤓🩵🎉

[@disturbedoldmaster9020]

Joker seen better days lol

[@JenniferNoelle]

Speaking of scammers, I checked my professional email the other day and had an email titled ILLUSTRATION INQUIRY. He claimed he wanted to hire me and said his job title but not *where* he worked and he never said anything specifically about my work except that it was "creative and imaginative". People gotta be careful to look out for the red flags.
