So cute
Are you able to tell me which palette you used for the painting that looked like an underwater castle with a stingray? It was mostly blues, greens and purples.
İlk kez güzel bir video sanatsal yapılanları gizlemelerini uzerine birsey ler yapıştırarak ve mahvediyor lar sanat olmuyor ,journal yapanlar tüm sayfaları üst üste resim yapistirarak ani lari yada güzel hatıraları paylaşılma dan yok oluyor 💙🦋
Also I love your first picture it should be a sticker ❤
I love all of the pages ❤but I just think the kitty one is so adorable.
I feel like for there price these are the best. I like and hate how opaque they are if that makes sense once layed out they remind me of gouache except you can’t blend them. Like when you first use gouache and do the coloring book type method. If that makes sense. If you use smooth mapper the damage is controllable. I don’t know I think in the end paint will always give the best skills. I feel the most satisfied with my art when I use paint. But that’s only an opinion . Btw I typed this comment before you said they reminded you of gouache lol sorry
Aww, i like those chibi-like drawings ❤
I wondered if you ever went back and finished the ones you once abandoned or if you moved on. I rip pages out I can’t control myself it’s so sad it’s messed up .
Hullo Melanie, Sketchbooks re so tricky! Thanks for giving us a good overview. I found the workbooks from Arches or Kilimanjaro (Cheap Joe's in the States), But they do have the spiral binding and I like those because you can work with either hand and not worry about hitting your wrists on the binding. Sarah Burns likes the toned paper books from Hahnemule for her gouache and watercolors. Sweet video, Thanks!
I was going to suggest Kilimanjaro also! I LOVE the one with the regular sketch paper between each page of watercolor paper, it’s by far my favorite watercolor sketchbook currently! But I’ve always got quite a few going at one time (I think 9 watercolor sketchbooks right now alone, not counting all the other kinds of paper sketchbooks 🤭), so I try a lot of new ones often. This video was right up my alley!
They’re super adorable! ❤❤
If you made a coloring book-
Hamster lookinf goober
The wooper one is so cute!
Cactus wooper....
These look great! Keep up the good work, miss!!
That's an expensive course that unfortunately i cannot afford 😢
@@user-je9nx1hw2j I'm most likely going to do a massive flash sale next week, stay tuned for that 😊
Love your art amazing ❤
💚 🌵
❤❤❤
Nice!
They came out great =)
I suggest Stillmann & Birn. There are two of them that are watercolor - the Delta and I think Zeta. Both of those have a pretty smooth paper and they are really good. There's a bit of texture, so it's not hot press, but much smoother than Hahnemuhle. James Gurney and Sarah Burns both use them. I;ve also found their mixed media sketchbooks to hold up surprisingly well to watercolor. The would probably do very well for gouache, again very smooth.
You seem to really like smoother paper. Do you prefer hot press then? I've always liked hot press until made a painting on each and I liked the final look for the bumpy cold press.
My absolute forever favorite is the Primrosia watercolor journals! Loads of pages and very lightly had grid lines. That paper can take water like a champ! Markers (alcohol markers will bleed through) colored pencils, gouache especially. The paper in those is amazing! I've talked to the owner, she makes them herself! I buy them from Amazon. I'd love to hear what you think about them ❤❤
so nice 😍
Great review! Thanks Melanie
Beautiful art work!! 🤗🥰
LOVING the taylor swift themed cover 😍😍
Que bonito y que emocion ver tantos Sketchbooks con tantas ilustraciones tan hermosas... usted muy bien señorita! 💜💜💜💜💜
🤩
Having a lot of colors is great for people who don't want/like to mix.
That's a good point if you really enjoy the colors in the set as it. Personally, I think the ones in this set are oversaturated if not mixed at all. You need a very expressive art style so that it looks decent without mixing
Absolutely amazing!!! But the snakes…no, no, no

Wow I love watching the creative process ❤
❤
love the limited colour palette for this spread 🥰
Just ordered some and super excited!! 🎉
Update: They are wonderful!! They are so easy to use and I'm so glad I have them. 🤗 I will definitely be looking into purchasing a blending marker, but even without one I love them!
Thank you for this Video. This gives me cozy witchy vibes. I love it 💜💜💜💜💜 For the brushes i use the brush soap from tritart 100% vegan. to get the brush back in shape clean it with warm water, adjust the bristles with your fingers and let it dry completly on its own, laying down or hanging with bristles down.
Just in time! Got my first gouache set for my birthday and looking for some exercises :)
this is called an analogous color palette! where all the colors are generally in a row if you look at the color wheel :) looks awesome!
True! Thank you 😊
You have been a wonderful inspiration!💌
I wonder how you can access the scenes from the ghibli movies.
Would Eastern Standard Time in the US be 9 am for a 4pm European live class?
If you put into Google, "What is 4pm in [insert your country] time, in EST US?" it's quick and easy! 😊 Check it out , because your calculation isn't right. I'm not telling you, because telling you how to do it for yourself is better than having to ask someone every time you need to work out a time change. BTW it also takes into account the changes for summer and winter time where applicable!
Beautiful candle collection!! 🕯 😍
Thank you so much. I love your art. Thank you for being so open with us. If you have a tool that works for you, is it!
Masterpiece!
I LOVE YOUR CANDLE DRAWINGS BEAUTIFUL. BYE, LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT VIDEO MARIA
