You make mundane look amazing. You have inspired me. My "tv" sketching I just grabbed the Pottery Barn catalog and started sketching some of the the background props they use and light fixtures any thing that you would not really pay attention to. What a great idea. You always inspire us. thanks.
Loved this vid and I would love to see it done as watercolor. Thanks Lindsay and have a safe enjoyable trip to Paris!! 🎉🖖🏾💕✨💜 Happy Mother’s Day!! 💐
I immediately fell in love with this marker painting the instant I saw it. Those strong shadows are thrilling! And the rust? Chef's kiss! Gorgeous, Lindsay. You've the patience of Job. :) And I ABSOLUTELY would love to do a wc with this!!! No one else I know would throw down a pile of rusted bolts and see art!
Thank you so much!
Your comment on glazing to mix the colors and blending them together with a unifying color is SO HELPFUL. I come from a background of painting with acrylics, oils, watercolor and gouache. Markers are so fun now that I’ve played with them for a couple years but I still have that “gotta catch em all” mentality lol. I’ll try this tip for sure!! I wonder if this would also apply to color pencils? Trying to resist buying the full set of polychromos colored pencils. So tempting but I have a set of 12 and colored pencil powder blender and all of those brush and pencil products.
Yes and colored pencils will layer and mix a bit so you probably need less than with markers. It will take you longer than if you have a larger set tho.
Looove this video, so happy Ohuhu sponsored you to review the new sketchbook because I was super interested and I trust your reviews more than any other! I also adore the subject matter, very much up my alley.
Hope you enjoy it! This is a demo, not a review, but I like it very much:)
Really neat project. I used to quit a piece before it was really finished just because I didn't realize it was only partially done. A watercolor of this would be nice. Thanks!
That is incredibly, phenomenally, astonishingly, stupendously fabulous!!! When I first glimpsed this painting I wondered what you were doing with rusty metal bolts. Suitable for framing. I bet you could hang everything you have created, floor to ceiling in your house, and still have many left over. I would be delighted to take ANY of them off your hands. It d be so much fun to see the earliest piece you still have!( if you are like me, you probably don’t have your earliest, so any would be ok)Actually I do have my first couple of oil paints and colored pencils, I inherited them back from my Mom. Moms are so great. I can ’t stop grinning! You made my day. I can’t wait to try something like this.🙏🖖🤭
This is why I don’t comment often. I can’t do so without writing a novel! My apologies!🤭
Love to see the water color! 💜
Coming soon!
This was sooo fun to watch, Lindsay!! I don't do markers, so, I'm all for doing this in granulating watercolors! This was fun for someone who has never picked up a marker! Thanks!
You are so welcome!
I am definitely going to try this, but right now i am so crazy inspired with your Colored Pencil class. I have never used a colored pencil before so thought I was nuts to try this, but I am loving it. Learning how to apply the pencils on this black paper is amazing. Thank you Lindsay for this opportunity to try something new and be fairly good at it. (Tooting my own horn here. Toot Toot!!)
I'm so glad!
I just love saying " ohuhu ", it's just fun to say! Thanks Lindsay 💜
You are so welcome!
I love it! Over the past year I bought the Tombow Grayscale set, Tombow Potrait color set and an Arteza brush set basic colors. The Tombows are 10 sets and the Arteza set is a 12 set. I have a set of Nicecho markers. They are a 30 set. The Nicechos are just wonderful. I do not get any streaking or anything. They go down even. I am looking for tips to learn to stretch a little bit and to enjoy these markers. Thank you for the great tips and encouragement. I am so glad you shared this.
How do you do it? You just keep WOWING me with your amazing art and the feeling that I too could do that!! I can't thank you enough for how well you explain and teach art. I feel like I actually learn and not just following another tutorial!! I would love to see this in a watercolor tutorial video! I want to paint it on all the card for all the fathers day. I'm a bit nervous about the drawing part but you always make it easy to follow along. I just love how you take the story of something old and capture it with art. It's so beautiful to me. I see things the same way, but my skills haven't quit caught up to my brain yet.
Thank you!
I love everything ohuhu makes! I use their old marker paper spiral bound sketchbooks and that was great but not bleed proof. They came with the plastic sheets cut to the perfect size to go with the sketchbook and I still use those sketchbooks to this day for my marker art. Did a commission on their old paper and it was a joy. Can’t wait to try this paper when I run out of the other!
Good to know!
Love this so much Lindsay. Yes please to the watercolour version.
This is amazing! I genuinely thought you were going to do some craft with bolts before I read the title :D
Thank you! Cheers!
I love that your dh wants to fix the swingset when all the kids are college age. That is optimism. 🎉
It's a bench swing, not a little kids swingset:)
@@thefrugalcrafter ah, that makes much more sense 😀
Have you thought about spraying the sketch with Kamar and UV Resistant sprays, like you would with an alcohol ink painting? I haven't ever tried to frame alcohol marker pieces, but I frame alcohol ink ones all the time. I don't expect them to last forever, but if you don’t hang them in direct sulight, they do pretty well.
I havent, good idea
Hullo Lindsay, I just wanted to leave a comment to praise your expertise and support your efforts to create from everyday things people see. The Artists job is to elevate the mundane, call attention to details that might otherwise go overlooked!
Beautiful bolts! I will also be watching for the future watercolor painting featuring these or similar bolts! Have a lovely day!
Wow, thank you!
My hubby is a mechanic. I have done some photography of some of his tools and odds and ends in his toolbox. I haven't painted from those materials though, I am inspired to paint those now! Thanks Lindsay!
That is awesome!
These look so amazing, what a wonderful new book ☺☺
Thank you 🤗
Hullo Lindsay, I love this picture and this is a wonderful video! It reminded me of my uncle who had a slew of pin-up girl in his garage. I just enjoyed seeing his garage and his collection. He asked me if I could paint some tool pictures as his new girlfriend was just not happy with his “decor” in his garage. I took photos of jars of screws, crescent wrenches and open-end wrenches, even a rolling Snap-On tool bench! I ended up painting 4 pictures and he gave me his old pinups. It is funny as these pictures are very nice and there is no nudity or overt sexualization. I know that they were marketed to garage mechanics but they were a real staple in the trades for salesmen back in the 40’s and 50’s! Weird how a picture of bolts can lead one down the road to Gil Elvgren and other wonderful artists. 😉
How interesting!
That looks amazing.
Nice! I love these reference photos!
Glad you like them!
Awesome! I bought your marker class but haven’t made my way to it yet (working through 30 day watercolor class now). I’m excited to start it now! I think I was putting it off because alcohol markers are newish to me and a bit daunting. This makes it seem more accessible. Thanks for sharing, and I would also love to see this done with watercolors:)
Will do!
Would love to see the watercolour version.
Great video. Ohuhu really is a great brand and keeps improving. Good company to do a sponsored video with! The only thing I wish you'd shown is the back of the paper after -- is it really still white? I think swatching the markers on the back and framing it and seeing how it fares is a great idea :) Also Ohuhu if you are reading comments - I miss your watercolor blocks so much, hopefully your new version is just as good or better!
She did flip it over at the very end. It's really fast - blink, and you'll miss it (24:10). As far as I can tell, the back does look white. 😊
@@daphnen.7182 Thank you! I absolutely did blink and miss it! 😂
I did at the beginning of the video. It is 100% white on the back:)
@@thefrugalcrafter A helpful person linked me right to the relevant moment, thank you!!! Great to know they have an additional option now. I really love the piece!
Thank you Lindsay, this was a really fun subject, I don’t use markers but I think it would be great in coloured pencil too.
Great idea!
I really felt your comment about having had too many cups of coffee by the end of the day and trying to draw straight. LOL!
I'm about 3 years into several of my marker illustrations being mounted up on a wall in a semi-sunny area behind some UV protecting glass, and I've not noticed any fading or significant color-shifting (so far). Maybe that's an option for hanging those amazing bolts somewhere in your house. I've known fellow illustrators who, in the past, scanned their marker pieces and sent them to a print company who made lightfast prints to display. Personally, I'd say that picture is worth that effort, but that's me.
You've inspired me to dig out my Ohuhus. It's been a while since I've played with them. Thanks for a great video!
Good idea!
Love this so much
Hi, Lindsay. Thank you for your video. ❤
You are so welcome!
Great video, thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
Would you be willing to show how to do this in watercolor? Love how this looks!!!!
I am planning to!
@@thefrugalcrafter thank you 😊
awsome i have not used my markers alot ,i have been using my Ohuhus for coloring my empty tea light metal holders ,markers look beautiful on aluminum
Wonderful!
I love this.
Thanks 😊
Would you say it’s the same as the Rendr and Sketchmarker pad paper or is it different? Thanks for the review! Keep creating 💜💛💙
It's similar to how it doesn't bleed through, but the ohuhu has a bit more tooth (it's still smooth though) and ohuhu blends a bit easier than Rendr. I don't think you need both, they aren't that much different but I like the ohuhu for the easier Blends and less slick texture.
@@thefrugalcrafter too late lol! I have them all and still seeking that perfect marker paper. 💙💛💜
Alcohol marker are a preprint medium. Just scan it and have it printed to last either in a copy shop or a professional printer. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ FYI I like the piece, too. I'd hang it and I would want it to last, so I would definitely scan it in the best possible resolution available.
Lindsay, is this paper the same as the paper in the hardbound Ohuhu marker paper (with a black textured cover)?
No, that one had a more absorbant paper and the ink nleeds through to the back so you can only use one side. This one had no bleed through to the back so the back stays white.
Thank you !@@thefrugalcrafter
Are you able to post the original photo of fhis i wang to try this at home. I just sorted all my Alcohol markers i was looming for inspiration
Yup, it's on my blog and instagram
Lindsay, is there a way to get a download of your photo if we want to try this?
I posted it on my blog and instagram:) link in description to both.
Thank you! @@thefrugalcrafter
Random question from a Lindsey to a Lindsay, do you still have your sea monkeys? 🤞
And of course, I love the video :)
I don't
