NEW Art Supplies Art Haul! Unboxing + Swatching

[@canvas._.caravan]

There is this thing about Jess that always romanticises the artist in me, like look at her there she is my star ✨

[@artofjesskarp]

thank you so much !!!

[@gilashroot8697]

@artofjesskarp It is her personal development. I have seen about the greatest growth of any art on KZbin from her because she puts in the effort and truly reaps the benefits in her life and art. Actually, more accurately, I reap the benefits. She is the 1 artist that has shown me the transformational results of real work more than anyone else. It is this that has made me a better person, artist, and appreciate growth and development as a process as opposed to what it used to be, an absolutely indispensable, but lonely, difficult journey that I used to experience. Thank you, Jess.

@@gilashroot8697 This is surely one of the biggest reason why artist from all walks of life are inspired by her. It's all about her work dedication, efforts and enthusiasm that flows in. She makes it feel so simple. Artists are a special piece of art themselves and Jessica is one of them 💗

[@artofjesskarp]

this comment made me tear up - thank you for sharing and I am so grateful to have this impact with you and I really appreciate your support@@gilashroot8697

[@dancinsilvermegs]

Jess, you’re pure MAGIC! Absolutely LOVE those new watercolor pigments, can’t wait to see what you create! Thank you for showing how each step in an artist’s journey should be savored and experienced deeply. Every moment is if full of beauty and wonder as an artist. Aren’t we so blessed!? Love and appreciate you! 🌞

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@shygato4989]

I love the way you swatched out the watercolors, they looked like a gemstone collection from afar! 💕

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you!!!

[@gilashroot8697]

Agreed.

[@None.of.ya.business666]

Absolutely. A jasper there, an obsidian here, some jade, some carnelian, a rose quartz... Though I also associated planets or asteroids with them...

[@lisadamron8876]

Only Jess can make a simple art haul video wondrous. And yes, we are dying to see a painting with your new colors!

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much Lisa!

[@sielsounds]

I've never seen someone search in circles and I LOVE it. Especially how you label them. It has journal vibes. Beautiful.

[@LaCooCoo725]

This video was so relaxing to watch! Thanks Jess for being such an inspiration ❤

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much!

[@CherylGrant-xe1bn]

I agree! Made a fresh cup of coffee. . .added a little whipped cream. . . .and just relaxed and enjoyed.

[@dianapatrick7761]

The color swatches were fun to watch! I can’t wait to see what you do with the mini travel sketch books!! ❤️❤️

[@MsNikkieMichelle]

I want that little sketchbook & palette! Adorbs. I love how you mentioned focusing on your own overall health which in turn helps with life in general but specifically for you-creativity and your art. Burnout, overloaded days, stress, life itself can be difficult at times but it’s our mindset, approach and outlook that can really affect us and staying as grounded and having self love, care and gratitude really does help with any aspect in life. I truly love your art, your channel, and your calming voice is very relaxing & comforting (and for a loud Italian from nyc, your videos & voice are so soothing and tranquil.) I love DS watercolors and they are absolutely worth every cent. There’s something about them that makes my happiness meter amped up & it’s a delight to paint using them. Great haul, I see a gigantic sketchbook in my near future now, lol. Take care!

[@Lauraisabelgonzalezart]

So nice to see that you're embracing Watercolors more! Muted and opaque Watercolors are definitely amazing to work with for Fall art! So happy to see you swatching! Please share more Watercolor Art 🎨 🙏!!! . Hugs from MA... 🫂

[@artofjesskarp]

I agreee! Thanks! this was so therapeutic for sure!!

[@donnafitzpatrick4379]

I fell in love too as you swatched these marvelous colors

[@amberdreams_0]

I love Seawhite, their paper is such good quality and beautiful for drawing. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with them. Re: metal palettes, I'd recommend Rosa's as they have room in their centre space for a whole extra row of half pans, and their smaller compact sized palettes also have three rows for paint instead of two, while being exactly the same size shell as the usual metal palettes.

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

Enjoy! 😃 And Happy Birthday month! 🥳

[@SigneofHorses]

Seawhite brighton have been my fave sketchbooks. Filled the 20 x20 cm square now the 24x 24cm .That huge one looks sooooo awesome! Drooling over the watercolour swatches and jotted down some I have to get myself! I’m a Holbein fan, but with watercolour I find a mix of brands really makes a difference. Can’t wait to see more of these videos!

[@Kozette007]

I love the organization of the swatches.

[@shardasingh2485]

OMG!!! those swatches are just sooo good i love those dark blues, greys and the dusk pink!! 💙

[@susankelly4911]

Hi Jess I love that huge sketch book. But I love the mini ones as well and the tiny palettes are so cute. As for the colours that shell pink got my heart racing. It's gorgeous and those golds. So beautiful for the Autumn months and it's hard to get a lovely gold that shines when it dries so I'll be looking out for these little ones. The Flower Color Guide caught my eye as well. Love this video. It's great to see how these things look on paper before we buy. God bless and big hugs to you and your little Matilda. Love Susan xxxx❤❤❤

[@artofjesskarp]

So lovely thank you so much !!

[@devALLjapan]

A painting with the colors you swatched would be enchanting, they all worked so nicely on the swatch spread that you made

[@dfblake7]

Gosh, I think you have discovered my dream palette Jess! Beautiful! Can't wait to see what you do with them.

[@patti3d]

Loved watching your art haul and swatching out your new colors. Would love to see you set up a new palette also. Lovely colors you bought! ❤

[@artofjesskarp]

Thanks!!

[@kmm2503]

I love trying new paint brands. When I first started in watercolor I tried several, fell in love with Schmincke and used that primarily for many years. About a year ago I tried Roman Szmal on a whim. Oh my goodness, it is heavily pigmented and so beautiful! My new favorite.

[@tararaichand3417]

your videos give so cozy and peaceful vibe. i really feel good and positive by watching and it actually inspire me to draw something

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you!

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

Ohh wow I’ve had the MaimeriBlu Green Gold that’s my favorite color lately. All of those colors are gorgeous looking especially the granulating colors. I have been using the Frog tape for 4 years & it is definitely my favorite for painting in my sketchbooks, watercolor papers/blocks, watercolor canvas boards. I am definitely curious to see how your sketchbook testing goes & Yes I want to see a video for filling up a new palette with the watercolors! Thanks for sharing this fun art haul with all of us. Enjoy your weekend!

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much! Have a lovely weekend as well!

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

@@artofjesskarp You’re welcome 😉!

[@MonicaReentsArt]

I definitely feel the need to get my watercolors out 😁The colors you chose are stunning! They look perfect for painting Fall scenes 🧡 I ordered the flower book you shared- I love drawing botanicals! Hope all is well, take care! 😊

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy it - i love it!

[@MonicaReentsArt]

@@artofjesskarp I am so happy I decided to order the flower book you shared 🪷 It's absolutely what I wanted and needed! Thanks again, Jess 😊 Have a great day!

[@BeautifulMindv2]

I can watch you paint all day. Hope we get to see these supplies used frequently :)

[@lostincolors10]

Hi Jess, great video...quick suggestion, if we can have a video on finishing an oil painting tips : lint that get stuck during drying time and pls pls on framing thin canvases- am struggling a lot on the same. Thanks...and as always, thanks for sharing positive energy!

[@theartofcharleen]

Omg those watercolor swatches 🤤such luscious colors

[@artofjesskarp]

Yesss thanks! Hope all is well ✨

[@jessbutterfly1934]

Jess, if you like bright colours, really vibrant ones, you would love the Holbein botanical range in particular and also the Paul Rubens professional set.

[@artofjesskarp]

Thanks!!! Thats great advice will check it out!

[@stephh7863]

I have a few Seawhite sketchbooks and my Polychromos are really vibrant on the paper but they don't seem to layer as well as on other brands. I've been working in Strathmore mixed media journals lately and they are pricey but I love the way my favourite media work on the paper (coloured pencil, watercolour pencil, gouache and watercolour). I've just finished a couple of small pieces and the paper took multiple layers of AD watercolour pencil, Polychromos and Luminance, plus gouache highlights I've tried several brands of watercolour paint and I now primarily use Daniel Smith - Jane's Grey is a staple in my muted palette. Indanthrene Blue and Perylene Green are beautiful deep colours that can be used as washes, shadow and distance tones, and they do amazing things when mixed with primaries (IB and Quinacridone Rose make a stunning violet, PG and Lemon Yellow make a really vibrant yellow green). I have looked at the Primatek range longingly but I haven't picked any up yet. Please please please do a video with them so I can see how they work in a piece! Thanks for another great video! ❤

[@Lia13_]

I am definitely interested in some of those watercolors, the little mini palettes, and that awesome pen! 😊 Thank you for another wonderful video my favorite KZbin artist! 🖤🖤🖤

[@miraxterrik]

I love the Roman Szmal pans!❤

[@fn5758]

The colour palettes 🎨 😱

[@katharinaparis7048]

And another amazing video. Those colours, 😱 OMG! I can not wait to see a full painting!!! Thank you Jess for all the kindness and inspiration you put out there for us.

[@artofjesskarp]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!!

[@mariamichellegervig5493]

Lovely colors❤ Really like to see you painting with all of them🙏🌈

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you!

[@meowkat347]

Please set up a new watercolor palette!!!! I will watch it over and over again! I love to see your choices for color, and it’s so satisfying to watch!

[@dekuthecat4125]

I always get inspired to paint when I watch your videos! In 2 days I am going to the beach (for some mom/daughter time) and I can't wait to create some watercolor pieces. I'm bringing a sketchbook, some travel brushes and a fountain pen I discovered from your past videos. So you will be with me in spirit.

[@artofjesskarp]

Thats incredible! Thank you so much I will definitely be there with you !

[@deafamily1933]

This is just😍 forever obsessed with you!!

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you!!!

[@Rumpellastilt]

I don't know how you do it, but every video of yours gives me a dopamine rush, and I am happily running to my sketchbooks after each one! Thank you for doing what you do! ❤❤❤

[@PurpleWillowArts]

I actually have the same flower book! I love it. It has so so many flowers and colors. It’s awesome.

[@artofjesskarp]

I love it! Thanks for watching!

[@Nitemage1]

Love the marine blue paint..

[@dexter8018]

The mini palette was my favorite of all, its just adorable

[@anthonyw2931]

Ha! Happy Birthday, fellow October baby? Are you also Libra? I always say the same thing about birthday month! Your gesture drawings are better than my finished work! You are so giving and inspiring. Thank you.

[@tikawhom]

seeing you create new pallets and paint with those lovely colours would be amazing!!

[@michelleannette7994]

This was so much fun, so inspiring, just so, so, so.... everything❤ thanks Jess!!! Can't wait to watch you put these to use. Been very ill for about a wewk. Today was the first day I really sat with a cup of coffee, and I watched your video❤❤❤ thank you so much!!

[@rheabies]

For the Kaweco, I really recommend using the cartridges over the converters. The volume of the converters is tiny and they don’t last. They also tend to leak. I had a frustrating experience drawing on location with them. Can’t wait to see what you create with all your new supplies!

[@artofjesskarp]

Roger that! Thanks for the advice !!

[@PayneWaterStudio]

@@artofjesskarpanother advise! keep the cartridge once it’s done use a needle to refill with waterproof ink!! I did that with my sailor fude pen. Btw I highly recommend a fude fountain nib pen! You get a variety of line widths

[@Deescolourfulworld]

Gorgeous. A very relaxing video. Beautiful colors. But you forgot to get the Daniel Smith signature color Moonglow. If you like the granulating paints, then Moonglow is a must have ☺️

[@eva_unrast]

Hach! Ordering Art Supplies can be really addictive. Candy? Jewelry? I can pass it by. But new paints, paper, brushes... irresistible! I want to swatch all my watercolors in such appetizing blobbs right now! Regarding golden watercolor paint, I would like to recommend you "Star Gold" by Kraemer Pigment. Traditional, small German manufacture, and the handmade metallic colors are absolutely unsurpassable!

[@artofjesskarp]

Thanks!! :) haha I am going to check out the kraemer pigment and i appreciate your support!

[@SarahAndBoston]

Love all the new watercolors! I always love videos setting up new palettes.. Have fun with all your stuff Jess. Excited to see what those high flow acrylics do.

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you! :D

[@mjpete27]

Hullo Jess, I have loved watercolors for many many years, I try new mediums but I am always happy to go back to watercolor painting. I am not a fan of Dan Smith paints, but I have no reservation recommending DaVinci Paints of California! Professional Grade Paints and reasonable prices! Best initial recommendation? Denise Soden's Earth Friendly Palette! 24 beautiful paints for painting just about anything! I am glad your trying new books to work in as your sketchbook works are truly fabulous! I suggest that you fill your wells only at the back, just a line of paint to allow you to mix plenty of the tube color so you can alter it as you add more paint to the mixing area. I do hope you try DaVinci Watercolors, They have almost completely taken over my palettes! I can just not explain how these paints have brought me joy in my paintings! I wish you only good things as you go forward in your watercolor journey! BE well and stay curious!

[@HeidiSue60]

The tundra Rosa reminds me of my favorite Derwent Inktense watercolor : madder brown. Whenever I use it, my heart is thrilled because of the reds and golds that appear when I add water. I had the same reaction watching tundra Rosa going on the paper ❤

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you thats so beautiful!! :)

[@renee1292]

Jess, what an awesome and inspiring haul!!! "The Artist's Way" is a wonderful program. I did it years ago. I'm thinking to do it again as I've also seen a lot about it online and Cameron has a follow up book coming out next year. Enjoy your new supplies. I look forward to watching you using them.

[@leahcate1873]

Would LOVE a painting with these colors!!! 🫶🏼🎉

Jess, I just love your art hauls! Your selections are so specific and interesting… I would never have tried a few of those colors… but I may re-think that… I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with that huge sketchbook… I’m sure it will be great. Thanks for the video! ~Jill

[@felicianomiko5659]

I have been eyeballing those wooden palettes but I love my cotman and I can’t imagine the wooden ones being better, just a lot prettier. The lack of water just kills me for travel and the Cotman has it. I just can’t paint without water. I plan to upgrade to the Whiskey version which is metal. But I bet I’ll end up with some one those wooden ones one day when we’re done with buslife and I’m back in my home studio when space isn’t such a but issue. 😅

What a collection! we can't wait to see what you would create with them! I ordered a similar tiny wooden pallet and received it yesterday!

[@gilashroot8697]

Please make filling palettes and painting videos! ❤ this. I do not watch many "haul" videos anymore because either I want to try them and cannot afford them or I end up buying some incredible supplies with limited time to get to them. I do use them, but it takes so long to get to them that I feel the disappointment of not being able to use them as soon as I get them. On the flip side when I finally get there, the satisfaction is grater because of the anticipation. However this video was irresistible and well worth it!! ❤
