MAKING ART WITH CRAYOLA'S SKIN TONE CRAYONS?! Swatching and Trying Crayola's Colors of the World!
Gatekeeping can come in so many forms, and while rejection is inevitable, my (maybe counter-intuitive) guidance that always seems to help is in those moments of frustration, and let's face it, sometimes despair--uplift others. When you offer assistance or help someone else out of any kind of jam or problem it transforms your attention and gets you focused on solutions and next steps from a place of generosity and strength. It's a powerful thing!
My research is leading me to sway toward the Pablo set. Im an artist looking for a contrast for Prismacolor. They dont layer up to my taste.
Keep on learning and growing! Even fruit trees take time out to grow ;-) Hugs and best of all luck!
Thank you so much I love drawing and using pencil colours, your channel is such an uplifting inspiration.
It's beautiful 😍😍🥰🤗🤗❤❤..... I will also try it on black paper 🥰🥰🤗😁❤❤❤ may I know it's name ......
Stumbled apon your video and happy I did.. You showing all the different pencils and what they do side by side was what I was looking for. Thank you! Keep it up 🤙
Hi, which grade would you recommend for beginner? I don't wanna buy the whole thing. I'm mostly gonna do simple sketches from life. I don't like very realistic drawings. And what about those jumbo and pitt graphite matt ones? Are they also good for beginner or not? Sorry if I'm bothering you with many questions)
It's a pretty much hand skill you have, I learned something from your video. Best of Luck! Asif from Pakistan
I'm on a tight budget. Wanting a set of polys and the Albright durer. Would their mid size sets be sufficient for someone who does animal portrait work? I def can't afford the big sets.
Which side of the paper are you using?
How hard is it? I just bought one and it’s very hard. I thinks mine is very old but was sealed.
Wow your drawing is amazing like you ❤
the derwent 5B is one of my favourite pencils
Thanks for sharing this very informative comparison video! It's really helpful. 😊 👍
My favorite colored pencil paper is hot pressed100% Arches watercolor paper ,i use Strathmore drawing for graphite only its my fav. , and Strathmore Charcoal best for charcoal only :)
I'm not really familiar with graphites. I only use HB when I sketch and mostly line my artworks with pen and ink. Awesome review thank you for sharing.
Gatekeeping artists are just insecure about their own skills! Truth.
Human drawing and shading.
ahh yes the most difficult to draw!
I am a prismacolor fanatic. I like using them with polychromos for my portraits and dog renderings. Im getting thr luminance for cristmas. Also i build custom wood cases. My prismacolors look beautiful in my wooden case.
they are nice to use among polychromos! very excited for you to get the luminance:)
I have this same paper & use it for charcoal & graphite pencil drawings & it works great for that. Nice drawing, it's been quite awhile since I've been able to be on due to all my music gigs, hope all is well with you, you are an AMAZING ARTIST!!! Keep On Creating, Rock On & God Bless.
I haven't been up to art in a while either, hopefully I will get back to it soon, but sometimes life happens in seasons! art will always be there. thanks for your comments as always:)
could i use water mixable pencils on first layer then add illumines wax pencils on top ?
you definitely could, it might be a bit grainy but i think layers of pencil would be able to cover that
I found i prefer to not sharpen prismas to such a sharp point. I use polychromos when i need that fine point.
polychromos have the trademark sharp point!
Way late on this vid. Found it looking up Thomas Fluharty's work and his obsession with Prisma 901 Bleu Indigo (an amazing illustrator btw) - random observance playing around at home Luminance 159 Prussian Blue is the same exact tone as the Prismacolor Indigo Blue from what I can tell.
it definitely has gotten me confused about which color is named what! haha
The colors are also reminding me of the subtle hues you get looking at natural rock formations and minerals, if you have any liking for landscapes with a lot of exposed geological features. Look at good photos of anything from chalk cliffs to basalt to sandstone to the crazy red earth formations in Africa and Australia, or even all kinds of minerals lying in shallow water at the seashore. If the colors themselves work well and you can combine them for even more subtle creation of hues, then they are perfect with perhaps another harder pencil type for surface texturing when needed.
Oh my gosh!! Thank you so much for this video!! You’ve saved me so much time!! I’m getting ready to start a portrait and purchased this putty a few weeks ago. I saw its potential!
so happy to hear that! I hope you're having fun with the putty!:)
Is it permanent and water proof?
I would need to seal it, because its just acrylic paint so it can scratch off!
Mine were not intense at all!!!
interesting, i found them more intense than most watercolor pencils I have used, but that is because I am comparing t hem to watercolor and not ink
2:21 What&How???
♥♥♥♥
Hello! Thank you for the comparison! Did you stretched the papers previously?
I did not stretch them!
I use Faber-Castell pencils specifically for light grade drawing specifically light detail and underdrawing. Your cat is spectacular thanks for the pencil review.
they stay very sharp so that would make sense! thank you!
😍wow
I go by the indigo bunting bird, that said W&N is the correct indigo color. I use FC Poly indigo over a brown pencil to create a beautiful more interesting dark/black.
Okay, I will have to look at winsor newtons paint! the poly indigo is very unique, thats a good idea!
Eek mine looked SO bad but this video was very informative!
im glad you drew along with me though, thanks for watching!:)
Amazing video. very helpful!
It's really so beautiful...🖤
Thank you
I have an a level ppe tomorrow, so im doing a bit of last-minute research even though ive already drawn it before lol.
This may not have been true when you made this video but FC 9000 now do go yo 5H.
awesome!!
I think this is great. I am in retirement, returning g to a modest kind of talent for art class in school that I left off once I started to pursue college and professional training, and work. I am thrilled how much good instruction is on the web, and how much real fine art you can do with colored pencils, which were almost like a toy when we were kids in the 50s and 60s. A real good foundation, and this is good advice too about pressure and how to lay down color because a lot of retirement age people have some trouble with their hands and need to work more gently. Colored pencils are a beautiful medium if you know how to handle them! Thank you!
Thank you for this video! This was extremely helpful as I'm working on a dinosaur for my son. I practiced with our bearded dragon and the texture on him. It was okay but not as realistic as I hoped. Your tips in this transformed my drawing from okay to....almost great. Love your channel! Thanks again
I matched about all but 3 with the Prismacolor from all 50 Holbeins
Wow, now that would be a crazy video
Sad to see that your poor little bird only has two front 'toes' on its left 'foot'. Maybe its mom married a woodpecker. Still love your videos.
HAHA I should go back and fix that, oh well
Great videos. The correct pronunciation of the word 'Foliage' is FO....LEE....AGE...not FOI...LAGE. the 'I' comes after the 'L'..not before. From one teacher to another. Keep up the good work.
I like it 😊
you know the drawing of a snake is good when it gives you the ick. very impressive.
thank you! it is a very slithery snake indeed
I love the real distance you take from the pencil tip with your fingers on the barrel to get that feather light application. It took me ages to trust the control that much, but it was worth it. Nice to see someone doing it. I thought this was very nice and you had a lot of control and finesse over the "out of focus" green background. Do you ever use brushes with the solvent, or do you just like the Q-Tips? I used them at first, but I do like brushes for tiny places and edges.
I love you ♥
Hi Alexis! I love your pencil case holder shown in this video. Can you provide me with a link to purchase it? Thanks!
The vibrancy of these pencils in your demonstrations remind me of the intensity of Inktense pencils. Love your videos…your demonstrations are great and the talking you do is all about what you are demonstrating (not just a lot of chit chat). Thank you!
