Swatching the Caran D'Ache Pablo 120 Colored Pencils

[@cassiefoster8856]

I remember a long time ago you saying these were your favorite pencils. They are mine too but not many tubers I watch love them. I love all Caran D'ache pencils. Just really enjoy watching you and not having feeling that I must be the best colorist or I should not be doing this. Thank you as always for your time that you put into these videos.

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

Awwww thanks Cassie! That's exactly the message I want to send and I'm SO glad that's the message you're getting.

I'm so happy you did this especially close up. I'm on Social Security and at times like these there's no way I could justify spending $$$ on colored pencils. That being said I too like to color nature pictures and I really wanted to see Pablo's greens. I've tucked this video in my save for later pocket so that, in better times, I can slowly purchase just the colors I "think" I "need." Although I've swatched all my pencils and have a sheet on each brand I've pulled all the greens from all brands together in their own case and have swatched them altogether on one sheet. That's why your swatch was so special to me. Trust I'll be watching closely when you use your Pablos to color leaves, grasses, shrubs, etc. Thank you.🎨♿👵 Barb N.

I agree. I can never have too many greens in my colored pencils!

[@Katielovesspookycrafts]

I just love your conversational style!!! I like watching these while I color or at lunch.

[@suewilkinson910]

They look lovely. I am hoping to try them at some point. Some very pretty colours here.

[@gooddollie]

Super excited to see some new videos from you! You are so good that people really miss you when you are gone!

I love my Caran d'Ache pencils as well! To your comments on the 2 blacks ... they are made from different black pigments. 496 Ivory Black is made from PBk6. That's a lamp black and is the most opaque pigment. The 009 Black pencil is made from PBk7. That's a pigment made from a mixture of carbon black and lamp black. The carbon black is a very cool black and explains why their greys 002-008 are very cool (also made from PBk7). The metallic pencils have aluminum powder added to make them "metallic" ... it's the only real failing in the Caran d'Ache line. I wish they'd just drop them and put in 3 additional colors.

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

I agree! Or make them with mica and a bit stronger, maybe? I love good metallics on toned paper for details, but when they aren't very good, I'd prefer more colors, too. A couple more reds would make my day!

[@tyrenatobin7172]

Yay! You did it!! Thank you 💛💚🧡💙💜

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

Welcome!

[@emilyerdbeere9210]

Thank you for making swatches 🌸 I wonder how the Pablos show on toned dark paper in comparison to Polychromos

[@timyank8433]

My Pablos just came today so I swatched along with your video. These just may take the honor of my favorite pencil over my Polychromos, and thats saying something

[@JMHaleSeattle]

Yes aren’t these Pablos great! Just beginning to use mine.

[@TravisBrady-wn8fr]

Wow. My polys should be in this week. Along with the pablos and luminance. I am as excited as I've ever been.

[@fionascott5492]

I love these pencils. The colours are beautiful ❤

[@JMHaleSeattle]

Thx very much! Ordering whole set. 😁🐶

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

Omgosh! Enjoy!

[@JMHaleSeattle]

Yippee! Love em! Thx for advice.

[@pattytolliver2651]

I have missed your videos. I''ve recently began collecting them. I'm excited to continue collecting. I hope you come back to the you tube community. Stay safe.

[@color4laurie722]

I love these pencils! 🥰🥰🥰

[@JMHaleSeattle]

Me too, just starting to use. Wonderful.

[@MissV463]

Thanks for this video. Did you post your color spectrum order for these? I need assistance with organizing mine lol

[@carolberres5528]

I have the Pablos and I like them a lot, thank you for the info on this chart.

[@miriamhakimian]

Thanks!!! Been waiting for this!!!!!

[@shellyt2906]

Where can I find the swatch sheet?..? Thanks

[@ColorfullyOptimistic]

I'm so glad to see you back to coloring and making videos! I have the Pablos on my wishlist, but I want to try the Luminance first.

[@iamjane9628]

Thank you for doing this. I see some colors here that I would really like to supplement my set of Polychromos. I am going to see if I can get them open stock at Blick when the stores re-open!

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

They play beautifully with almost any pencil, so that's a great idea! Blick online seems to be out of almost everything so I suppose it's time to start rationing my pencils lol.

[@iamjane9628]

@@SimpleArtforAdults Ha! Everyone must be coloring like crazy during the lockdown.

[@ShainaInColorland]

Such pretty pencils! Would love it you would do a skin tone series or just show how you do it every once in a while, that’s something I really struggle with and would love to see how you do it!

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

I can try, but honestly I don't color skin enough to feel confident in teaching it. Maybe when the pocket edition of Enchanted Faces gets here I can do some short "tutorials" in that. I have a few different ways I do it.

[@ShainaInColorland]

Simple Art for Adults no worries even just a speed color of you coloring a person would cool. I struggle mostly with just finding the right tones to use.

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

@@ShainaInColorland Alright. Let me make myself a note and see what I can do in the next couple weeks.

[@ShainaInColorland]

Simple Art for Adults please no rush! Just if/whenever you get to it. I just wanted to try to help out and give suggestions :)

[@HillbillyTrash]

I have the supracolours and now I am dying to buy the pablos next.

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

I want the Supra, Museum, or Albrecht Durer. I don't even care which one lol. 🤣

[@shellyt2906]

I would be willing to purchase the sheet if I know where to get it...thanks again

[@mememex-t1v]

I have a doubt, could You clarify please, are Pablos similar with kho i noor polycolor?

[@elizabeththompsongraves9352]

Are these better than luminous?

[@cchild12789]

Are they soft like Prismacolors or do they feel more like Polychromos?

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

They're right smack in the middle. That's the best way I can explain them.

[@cchild12789]

Simple Art for Adults Thank you!

[@PHcute]

I love Pablo. I have blues but mine don’t look anything like these. Must be the camera etc.. these are much nicer 😕

[@shellyt2906]

I found it ...thanks anyway :)

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

I'm so sorry! I just got this notification. I'm so happy you found it! It's my favorite one so far!

[@JudyXthree]

I want the whole set soooo bad! I have 35 of them but a ways to go! ♥️

[@SimpleArtforAdults]

I know how you feel! I wanted them for soooooooo long. 🤣
