Trying WATERCOLOR PENCILS for the FIRST TIME!

[@jaynegarrity8621]

Such a beautiful painting to start off your new journal. It amazes me how you can put pencil to paper, sketch a drawing freehand then end up with a masterpiece. Stunning work by a very talented young woman. I love watching your videos Kirsty.

[@sadiyarahman144]

The unboxing and arrangement of the pencils were soo satisfying!

[@lisasummey]

Sadiya Rahman you

[@markdermody9698]

I also agree with you about the ‘Faber Castell’ Pencils as they are so much higher quality than Derwent in general! The only set by them which I particularly adore are the ‘Derwent Inktense’ Pencils, but I do also like their ‘Derwent Signature’ Pencils too, I just wish I had gone for the Watercolour Version when I got them instead of the standard pencils as they would have been soooo much more versatile just like the ‘Derwent Inktense’ Pencils!

We need more youtuber like you on this earth. Your channel is worth more subs. These days I spend more time playing gadgets, mobile games, browsing, socmeds, etc. I almost forgot i used to like sketching and drawing when i was in high school. But when I see your vids, they inspire me a lot. I am starting my hobby again. Thank you. Not all heroes wear capes :') God bless you, sister.

[@Star-eyes7]

These are my favourites! 😀 I have all of them! ❤️ these are very pigmented and you don’t need a lot of colour at all. I prefer these over normal watercolours!

[@nancyfuller2405]

QOTD: Do you prefer working with regular watercolours or watercolour pencils? Also all of the new supplies that I tried out in this video are listed in the description :D

[@momolandmamamoodreamcatche3453]

Kirsty Partridge Art regular watercolors 😍

[@tomatosoup6070]

Watercolor pencils are so cool, i love them, and I think thye're easier to work with, than the regular watercolors.

[@isabelcarvalho4638]

You're a artist!

[@lmk.graphics4773]

I like to work with both options and I love combining real watercolours with the pencils. You can also take the pigments directly from the pencils if you want the colour to be really opaque and vibrant. 😊

[@mjpete27]

I have been a watercolorist for years, I recently discovered the watercolor pencils again after watching a youtuber "Hullo Alice" she is quite amazing. I like to use both now in most every painting I have been doing. I had Koh-I-noor years ago and I simple forgot about them! I treasure these pencils now! You are exceptional in every treatment I have watched you do!

[@Hoo_huu]

I love the smell of new pencil too 😭 😂 💗 strange artist addiction

[@vensfacuen5240]

The smell of new art supplies is just simply amazing

[@pentachronic]

I love the smell of sharpening pencils. I guess I like the smell of cedar!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Kirsty! I’ve had the 120-pencil set for almost 2 years and never used them because I couldn’t find a decent tutorial. I’m a Patreon member of yours, and I think you’re one of the best art instructors. I also love your ArtTutor course on colored pencils. 💖

[@KirstyPartridgeArt]

Wow thank you for all of the support, I really appreciate it! I am happy you find my teaching methods helpful :)

[@spasskeks]

i am actually more of a digital artist - person. but watching your videos makes me want to give traditional art a try. Outstandingly beautiful!! Very inspirational!! Love your work!

[@WooshaBaloo]

I don’t draw, or paint or do any artistic at all. I have no ability in this area. Even as a child at school, I was known as the one who couldn’t draw a decent “stick-man” I’m now 57 years old. But this video is amazing. What a talent you have. Not just in your artistic ability but in your imagination to come up with this. I loved every minute of it. Beautiful.

[@kimberlycervantes2384]

I have Faber castell art grip aquarelle watercolor pencils. I recently bought them and I wanted to see other artists use these so here I am.

[@ronibancroft6897]

YAY, finally. I have had a F/C set for a while now but haven't taken the time out from your channel, to find a decent teacher to show me the best way to use them. You keep me pretty busy as it is and I love your channel. You are the only one I go with nowadays as you cover everything I can want to learn. So you save me lots of money, as I had about half a dozen, before, trying to find the best way to learn.LOL. Thank you.

[@themechanic7308]

I found many other KZbin artists who uploads tutorials but I love your videos because u used to explain every step thoroughly and beautifully

[@mjpete27]

Thanks for this video I just got these pencils I splurged on the 120 set I got a super deal on e-bay less than a dollar a pencil! you did a GREAT painting using these pencils! I am really looking forward to more of your "sketchbook" work! I must say your so generous to share your expertise with us! I hope more people watch your Patron videos and you get some support there! Have a great day!

[@catshultz9045]

Thank you! I’m just now starting on watercolor pencils and I’m typically pen & ink. I’m now broadening my horizons

[@patriciasmith1196]

I'm so glad you've decided to go with pencils (colored), as I have many and didn't have any idea how to go with it. I'm SO HAPPY! Thank you so very much.

[@bl0tt44]

a cool thing you can do with these is to sharpen them over damp paper and enjoy the random pigments x

[@chronicstitcher7933]

Cool idea!!!

[@sneaks6635]

I found it was easier to keep my wc pencils organized by adding the FC number to my color chart. Mine is smaller than yours and I keep it in the tin. I love my set of 120. They're also nice to add bits of color to regular watercolor paintings. Your painting is lovely and I'm enjoying your tutorials very much.

[@jamiiiepilton1530]

This is by far the BEST and most well explained and easily relatable tutorial EVER!! I've had these pencils for so long and haven't used them because every KZbin video I've watched has left me scratching my head!! Thank you so much I'll be sure to check out your site/patreon 👏👏

[@LinuxxLin44]

Yesssss we did this for a schoolproject 2 years ago in the first year of high school (age of 11 or 12 or so)

[@lorriekruse5491]

Absolutely beautiful!!! I love the tip you gave about the swatch sheet. A great way to get the feel of how the pencils work while making something useful at the same time.

[@lilyjuice]

no words to describe, you are simply TALENTED!!

[@MrJpm1989]

Thank so so much for giving me more inspiration to continue to draw and paint. I have been very ill since 2012 and finding the strength to keep up is not easy.

[@annenglish2935]

I have issues with chronic fatigue and pain... I'm 69 and started watercoloring last summer- took a few months off... don't have that drive back. I enjoy watching artists & may swatch a bit... my heart and prayers are with you... I see many comments on chronic illnesses and depression... best wishes, a California Gramma ❤️

[@MrJpm1989]

@@annenglish2935 O its wonderful to hear from you and when I read that last bit California Gramma well a flood of wonderful memories came back to me. See when I was much younger in 1973 I went to live with my grandmother there near suncity in the south part. They had a ranch out in the sticks. Myself we lived in Toronto Canada but my great grandparents are resting in Pasadena. I too have kinda lost my will lol to draw but mainly to pain. Wonderful neuropathy now . I wish you nothing but the best and enjoy some of the sun for me. Take care and thank you for messaging me you made my night.⚘♥️

[@annenglish2935]

God bless you as you continue your life journey through your difficulties... I'm very thankful for the art community as many have shared their personal journeys with a lot of support. Emma Jane Lefebvre, watercolor artist shared with viewers of her struggles with depression... Shayda Campbell, also from Canada (like Emma) watercolor artist, recently shared her struggles in a very open discussion... so helpful. I also listened to a podcast called The Lies of Perfectionism with Sandi Hester utube artist and her friend Joanne .... that was yesterday. The link was in Sandi's video... profound... I pray you'll be encouraged. With love from a California Gramma ❤️ (southern California in North San Diego County)

[@MrJpm1989]

@@annenglish2935 Thank you again so much and God bless you. There are very few I could speak of that have lived a most perfect life. Myself having my father pass when I was 1 then mother at 15. My beautiful son passed at 19 from Muscular dystrophy then 20 year marriage gone. Lost a bit for 10 or so years then a brain infection in 2012. Told I wouldn't make it then 5 weeks in the hospital then my life totally changed. No pituitary gland and many pills per day just to stay this side up. Imagine waking up each day after only 3 to 5 hours sleep and feeling like you have the flu. Well believe it you can actually get use to it but not the roller coaster effects of feeling ok then so ill you can barely make it to the bed. This too can be grown accustom to but the next little joker im having an issue getting around. Its called neuropathy and this one bites . Before this I spent close to 2 years going to the hospital and being treated for cellulitis but this wasn't the case at all. Turns out they never found out why my legs looked like they had bad burns and that the skin was breaking up with bad sores. Nothing that 1 prendesone per day for 5 month then stop and so far this one is still on vacation. All and all I think I have had a pretty good life considering the few bumps I have hit. I use to judge all that happened to me but when I was told that my beautiful baby boy would never drive a car or take that special someone to the graduation I realized that I have been a witness to this life and as long as I was just that I would think less of myself and more for what I was seeing. Drawing and painting is something I had always wanted to do . I worked as a chef/professional cook in hotels and fine dining rooms in Toronto and other areas , even competing in Chicago at the pre Olympics so sure the art side came out in many gold and silver medals in full programs and show pieces like fat carvings. Did I forget to say that my mothers side is Irish and English he he . I never speak of myself but for some reason this came out. If I had many wishes one would be that the world would be full of wonderful, loving people like you. You have recharged my humanity battery with our talks and I pray that all you roads be sunny with green grass and the most beautiful flowers one could ever see.♥️🙂.

[@kimlivengood5916]

I'm inspired. I just drew my 1st sketch in my 1st watercolor journal. I'm going to make it a nature journal. My pic is of a flower that grows in my front yard every year. It climbs between to trees that are close together. My Mom used to own this house & she put lattice up between the trees & planted the seeds. So I love them even more because my Mom planted them many years ago. So I have these huge purple, & magenta, Hawian looking flowers that grow between 2 trees higher than my roof. I wish I knew the name of them. I had to make them my 1st page. Now I only need to paint it. I just got the new Arteza watercolor pencils. I can't decide whether to use them or my reg. watercolors. Anyway, your pic is beautiful. I love it. TYFS

[@sushantgupta8666]

The idea of the color chart is just amazing ❤️

[@hilostateofmind]

You can also use it to add details after the initial washes and layers are down and then just tap in or mist in a bit of moisture to activate the pigment.

A set of new pencils... GOALS! I love pencils, I guess even I haven't done a single artwork in the last 2 years, my heart still goes for it! The HQ of Faber-Castell is just 20 min away from my home, so I actually have a lot of the Albrecht Dürrer watercolor pencils without ever buying a set, because they sold their selected seconds mostly with a broken tip... also they had some changes in their color palette a few years ago, so they sold the rest of the discontinued colors there as well!

[@mariaturner371]

I'm impressed with how these watercolor pencils worked. I didn't think they would turn out a patenting like a regular painting like if you used regular watercolor paint from tubes or pallets..... nice work! And great job on the bravery of trying out a new medium. I would be scared to try it out because the what if i waste my money question would pop up. I wouldn't think you can return the pencils if i didn't like them....

[@tiffanyzhu9587]

ines jimenez if you want to try them out just know that you can scrape the lead of these pencils and mix them with water on a palette to get normal vibrant watercolors which is what I do sometimes.

[@vickidavis4207]
