Here is a list of my favorite art supplies and materials I have been enjoying using this year. From watercolor paper to paints, sketching tools and other art supplies, I hope you find some new favorites too.
This laid-back and relaxing Jackson's Art haul and swatching is broken into two videos as I wanted to film the swatching in mostly real-time so you could just sit back and listen in the background whilst you paint or draw. Acrylic inks, Brusho, White Nights Metal Palette, Masking Film and Fluid.
In the video, we take a look at Lyra Watersoluble Crayons and compare them a little with the Caran D'Ache Neocolor II.
Take a closer look at the five 100% cotton watercolor papers that I own and see how they compare to each other. Paul Rubens, Arteza Expert, Bee Paper, Legion Stonehenge Aqua, Baohong Academy
Amazon Art Supplies Deals, Jackson's Art Supply Promos, Blick Coupon Codes. Here is a post that contains some coupon codes, discounts of promo for art supplies.
Here is a simple little beginner tutorial on how to make metallic watercolor paint that does not really need to be mulled using a muller to bind. We will just use our palette knife to incorporate the mica and create a good meld with our homemade binder (or premade if you have some). This tutorial will walk you through the materials you need and how to test your homemade paint.
In the video, we take a look at the Fabriano Studio Fat Pad Paper Cold Press 255 Cotton Paper and compare it to another equally affordable paper, Canson XL.
I go through my watercolor binder recipe and what ingredients and tools you will need, and also the steps on how to make a handmade watercolor paint binder. When you have made your binder you can mix or mull it with artist pigments, mica, or even recycle your old eyeshadow into watercolor paint!
A relaxing little Art Haul from Jacksons. I couldn't stop myself from buying some more of those beautiful Roman Szmal Watercolors, so this mini Jackson's Art Supply Haul has a couple of those as well as some water-soluble pencils (Stabilo ALL and Carbothello), Caran D'Ache Neocolor II, and a couple of interesting granulating Super Vision paints from AliExpress.
A relaxing swatching session of the Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 Color Watercolor Pan Set. This is just a short stroll through the vivid and delicious Traditional Japanese pan watercolors from Kuretaki, they are perfect for professional artists and crafters.
