🏝 My Watercolour TRAVEL KIT Setup ☀️

I'm travelling to the Caribbean so I decided to build a new, lightweight watercolour travel kit. This is the watercolour kit I've put together and what I'll be travelling with!
Enjoy!

[@Mirathehermit]

you got my subscription, nice artwork, keep creating more and more and build your channel

[@LeanneLandArt]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your support! 🥰

[@Lauraisabelgonzalezart]

Agreed! I subscribed as well!

[@LeanneLandArt]

@@Lauraisabelgonzalezart ☺ Thank you SO much! 💕

[@PayneWaterStudio]

For white highlight I love the uni ball signo and white out in a pen form

[@mebeeingb2421]

That's my go to as well.

[@LeanneLandArt]

I never thought of a white-out pen, that's a great idea! 😊

[@puffyjo]

only one thing . its not waterproof at all

[@stacys447]

For white, I am testing Derwent inktense white block and Daniel Smith watercolor stick in titanium white. It is a challenge to find the right one. I do love making my own sketchbooks but they do look homemade still. Thanks for sharing.

[@LeanneLandArt]

I didn't know about those two products, how did you find the Derwent inktense white block? I have two white posca pens that are the same size but have different profile shapes (one is Japanese, one is North American). I've been finding the Japanese one lately hasn't been as horrible to use. 😊 It is such an eternal struggle to find a good 'white paint' solution! 😅

[@suzisandpiper]

When you said you wanted a case that opened more like a book take a look at the LihitLab slimline pencil case...you can get an ultra slim one, or the next one up has a flap inside but is still very slim. It holds everything for a small set up like this. And keeps everything neat and held securely.

[@LeanneLandArt]

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I will definitely check them out. 🥰💕

[@FaithAnnNB]

I have heard sooo many artists say they want to learn how to make their own sketchbooks since Strathmore discontinued that series. I know I was disappointed when I heard the news and ordered a couple to have on hand. I like the Etchr A5 and A6 but they’re sometimes a bit bulkier than I want. I do take the Stillman & Birn since it’s a bit smaller and I like them, but prefer the Etchr paper for watercolour (cellulose is great for gouache though). I expect I’ll have to resort to getting materials to bind a homemade sketchbook at some point, I just hate to waste painting time on making a sketchbook since my hobby time is limited. Factis is one of my favourite erasers too (with the Tombow for detail erasing). Anyway… LOVE seeing how other artists make up their travel kits… art supplies are so fun to see!

[@LeanneLandArt]

I’m in the same boat as you, I love the Etchr books for their paper. But I do find them bulky as well. I’m not as crazy about the Stillman & Birn book I’m using now for watercolour but I love the size of it and that it’s soft cover! I was going to check into some different Etchr sketchbook sizes when I return home. I do know of one artist who exclusively makes all her sketchbooks. We had to make one in college and I remember really not liking that project. 🙃 I didn’t consider using my current Stillman & Birn for gouache though, I may have to try that!

[@watercolourmark]

I did a test on white pens. Posca and Gelly Roll were the best I tested.

[@LeanneLandArt]

Thanks for sharing. I did pick up my old Posca recently and it's working better than before. I have two that are the same size nib but the one imported from Japan seems to work better than the one North American version I have. I'm glad to hear those are working for you also. They're definitely the most convenient to use! 😊

[@R_H21]

Check out Brian Ashmore’s video on his mini travel kit (he has two videos, the other is a larger kit). He uses Maxpedition Fatty Pocket organizer, which I was able to find on Amazon. I like it, it has just enough compartments for my minimal tools, and it opens “like a book” as you said you are looking for. You can also look at the slightly more expensive Art Toolkit.

[@LeanneLandArt]

Thanks for the suggestion! The Maxpedition organizer looks like it can hold quite a bit of supplies, that would be perfect. And I really like the size! I'll definitely check it out. 😊

[@izzyg8316]

Have you tried the Uni Posca White Acrylic Paint Marker?

[@LeanneLandArt]

I have tried a few! I think I like them best of all. They do seem to lose their intensity as they dry though, but I think that might be because I don’t wait long enough for my paintings to dry. I should actually try them again but try to wait a bit longer before applying them. 🙈

[@izzyg8316]

​ @LeanneLandArt I see. I'm looking for an alternative to white gouache or ink pens. I just don't feel comfortable carrying those two around. Not only are they too much of a hassle on the go, the possibility of an ink leak is nightmarish lol So far, I'm feeling inclined towards the Uni Posca or the Uni-ball Signo (broad).

[@Tayym122]

That clear bag is perfect. Do you have a link for it?

[@LeanneLandArt]

Unfortunately I don't, but I think something similar to this would also work bit.ly/40gNhM0 - I hope that helps! 😊

[@sueberry1727]

I just have ordered the micro paint kit where did you order the extender plates from please and does it all close up with the extender plates ? Love your videos

[@LeanneLandArt]

Hi Sue! I ordered the extender plates from the Micro Painter website although they’re also available on the Amazon US website. The unit still closes nicely with the new pans added in, they’re quite nice! 😊

[@sueberry1727]

@@LeanneLandArt hi Leanne thanks for the reply I am from the uk and have spent an hour on Amazon USA trying to find these expansion set would you be so kind as to send me the link please I have checked with portable painter direct and they don’t ship to the uk many thanks

[@LeanneLandArt]

@@sueberry1727 No worries. :) I found the link on the Amazon US site here: amzn.to/3U7DsOl - hopefully that works okay!

[@puffyjo]

natural bristles do not hold a point . you need synthetic instead.

[@LeanneLandArt]

Oh, that might be where I went wrong - I thought they were synthetic. That makes sense. Thank you for letting me know.
