I love everything you favored for 2023. You’re absolutely right about the Pastel Colors because they enable contrast + shading. Luminance are gorgeous - I’d love to get the new colors.
Hi lori !! Thank you so much ! Im so glad to hear you liked the video ! Yes i agree with you Luminance are awesome ! Happy coloring to you and wonderful holiday season !
Ohh!! Thank you for saying that the Supra's are softer that AD's. I prefer a softer option always!! And, I was just at Marshalls and saw those acrylic drawers and thought they looked like just the right size for my neo's!! So, I am glad you said that. How many drawers would I need to hold the whole set? You're the best, as always!! Happy holidays dear. 🤍🌲
I would say one drawer set fits them ! I use another little tray inside one of the drawers to separate some of the colors, but if you want more separation of the colors than 2 , have a wonderful break and hope it’s relaxing!
Great choices Maia! I'm saving up for either inktense or Albert durer, I haven't decided yet, I got the coliro watercolors, which I love and the jellyroll, also love because of you, I may pick up some of those dark colors by luminance, I'm always wishing I had a darker green or brown, Thank you for recommending those❤❤❤
Hi Jennifer !! Omg im so happy you are liking my recommendations !! Exciting to be saving up for some water-soluble pencils !! Both great options ! I just put a list of all the dark luminance pencils i mentioned and pastel colors from the supracolor softs in the description box of this video because people asked for an exact list so just fyi on that. Happy holidays my dear !
Fab video! Loved seeing your favorite art supplies. We have some similar favourites. 😊 I also have the same paint pens from Amazon but mine are a bit more hot and miss lol. I really enjoyed watching your video
Hi Allie ! Thanks so much ! Makes sense we would have many similar favorites ! Oh yes those paint pens are awesome ! Hope you’re enjoying the kids winter break ! Happy new year my sweet friend ! Here’s to some buddy colors in Romantic Country in the next year !
I love your videos, they are short and informative! I can learn way much more from your half an hour video than hours of speed colorings or pencil swatching! I also love that we can get collection of wide range of colors from different sets without owning full sets by listening to your recommendation. However, i have question. Where do you use your acrylic markers. You mentioned they are not as opaque as pens. Do you use it dor backgrounds or masking lines?
Hi !!! Thank you so much for leaving me such a wonderful comment !!! And i agree with you lol !! Id rather people get straight to the point ! Lol.. i dont watch long winded videos lol, as far as the acrylic markers. The markers i use to color and i have a video on how i do that called “how i use arrtx acrylic brush pen markers” something like that , just scroll through my videos and you will find it. The actual acrylic paint pens i use for covering up lines, those are the ones you have to shake and pump, and sometimes i also color with them, but mostly for lines. Hope that helps !!
Oh and i too swear by an electric sharpener!! Must have. One thing is mine is only plug in. It’s afmat .. I been eyeing one they came out with over summer that is rechargeable!!! No constant plug or batteries!! Anyway yeah. Id love to be able to take it outside or another room. Ect.
Thank you so much my dear !!! Hahah you discovered my other love which is jewelry !! I also make beaded stuff with my kids, but i usually take off rings and stuff when i color so it doesn’t always show up on my videos ! So glad you’re enjoying my channel ! Yay ! Happy coloring hun !
Thanks for another awesome video. I agree about contrast in coloring. When people just color a bunch of pages with only alcohol markers I don’t find it amazing like colorists like you and Coloring with Kay, Amberlie etc. have a Happy Holiday. Big hugs from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
Oh you are from Canada too !! I love my Canadians ! Lol, yes i agree with you ! I don’t watch the channels that just do marker coloring with nothing on top unless its good marker coloring with several shades used. Thank you so much for the kind words of encouragement ! So very much appreciated ! Happy coloring to you hun and i hope you have a wonderful holiday season !
Great video. I had no idea you could seal Pan Pastels with the Golden Satin Glazing Liquid. I'm assuming you could also do the same for regular pastels and pastel pencils. Does it leave any brush marks when it dries? You mentioned it would work for sealing the oil pastels too. Would love to see a video of it.💖💙💜💛🧡
Hi stella ! Yes you assume correctly !! I left a link to the video showing me seal regular soft pastels this way in the description box of this video. I also show me sealing oil pastels in an upcoming video color with me that will air soon, and also i discuss it in my last coloring update video i think episode 13. Hope you check out the vidoes and find them helpful !! Happy coloring dear !
Thanks so much. Looking forward to the upcoming video. I will check out the other videos you mentioned too. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.🙂💖💚💙💜💛@@coloredbymaia6476
Hi Jeanie !! So glad you agree! Some people dont like prismas and im always amazed and confused when i hear that ! Lol, happy holidays and happy new year !
Hi Birdie ! As per your requests and others i just put a list of the color names int he description box of this video !! Thanks for reminding me dear ! Happy holidays and happy coloring
Hello 👋 👋 😊 All wonderful choices. I'm still ever so grateful for your nudging in the inktense direction! They have become one of my favorites. I will definitely be supplementing with some supracolors! I've also acquired and successfully used coliro because of your helpful tips! Thank you so very much!! Love all your videos. Happy holidays and continued coloring success to you my wonderful friend 😀
Hi my friend !!! Thank you so much for giving me all that credit !!! Ive been checking out your pages on IG today and they are stunning !! I just posted a list of the exact pencils names per peoples request in the description box of this video ! Hope it helps ! Happy holidays my dear !
Maia!!! Excellent video, love watching your favourite colouring supplies. Got the Supracolors, next plan is to get the inktense!!! Love from your friend in the UK 😊
Hi sweetie !!! Omg so happy for you, it takes a bit of getting used to them, but on certain papers they also work great dry. Always test the paper first ! So glad you liked the video my dear ! Happy coloring and happy holidays to you
Hi!, love to see your favorites as I really like your coloring style. Could you please show us a picture or a list of the colors that you own so far in Luminance and Supracolor II? I'm also slowly trying to collect them and it would be amazing to have some guidance on which ones to choose. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Nicole !! Per your requests i have just put a list of the exact names of the pencils in the description box of this video , click on the word “more” to see all that is written there !! Thanks for asking and i hope its helpful hun ! Happy coloring to you
Hi Maia! It's Great to see Your Favorites for 2023! I have to ask, where did you get the desk calendar, lol! That's So Great!! Thanks for the big Chuckle😂😅😂 Thank You for Sharing! Have a Great Day 💜❤️💚
Hi Maia lovely video hun I got most of the items you mentioned but I don’t have the Saturn glaze liquid.. I love my prismacolors too out of all of my colouring supplies I only got a few of the super colour pencils I’m slowly collecting as I just finished my pabilo set.. ❤❤❤😊😊😊xxx
Oh nice Kylie !! Ya i just put a list of the supracolor colors that i use to supplament the inktense and albert durer range in the description box of this video in case you are interested. Ya i love prismas they are amazing. The Satin Glazing liquid from Golden can probably be found elsewhere under another name, try looking for Slow drying Acrylic extender or for “clear gesso” , those should work too. Happy coloring and happy holidays my friend !
It's always fun to know what other people's favorite art supplies are. I have a 24 set of Prismacolor and to be honest, I don't like them. They're small, they break a lot and too soft for my likings. Here in Europe they are very expensive, my Polychromos did cost me less. The Inktense pencils are my all time favorite, they sit in a wooden box and every time I open it I love the way they smell :)
Hi Karen !! I agree with you Inktense are absolutely wonderful !! They are up there with prisma for me !! Im always surprised to hear when people dont like prismacolors !! I know they are expensive in Europe unfortunately ! Here they are very cheap in the states. Prismas need to be burnished with either a light pencil or the blender pencil, otherwise you dont get their full potential. Have you tried the Koh i noor polycolor ? I know they are more available and inexpensive in europe. I recently ordered them all the way from Poland. Happy coloring to you hun !
@@coloredbymaia6476 I have the Derwent Coloursoft, but I'm not sure if we will be friends, haha. I don't want to have any more sets of pencils ( do have the Polychromos and Albrecht Durer too) , but I'm going to invest in the 'new' Inktense colours and want to complete my Neocolor II's (I 'only' have 40 of them. Have to say I enjoy your channel very much with all those bold and bright colours. Keep up the good work.
Hi Maia!!! Great video 😊 the timing was great too for me. I was coloring in a Lulu Mayo book & wanted to use watercolor pencils. I own the Inktense & about 70 Albrecht Durer. I could not find any soft pastel colors in both sets lol. Ended up using some Artxx and my only Prismacolor lol. The page took me forever!!!! Thanks to you, I will look into the ones you mentioned. Have a great day & happy holidays Maia ❤
Hi Patricia !!! Due to many asking i posted an exact list of the colors in the description box below, just click on “more” to read it. So glad you liked the video !! Ooo your page sounds awesome ! If you post it on Ig send me a Dm id love to see your pages.
Hi Maia!! I was thinking about asking you for your list but did not dare lol. And I was so excited about the pencils you used that I went online to buy them open stock right after viewing your video lol. I ordered about 30 Supracolor soft II & took your advice about the Neocolor II also. I ordered 6 or 7 in greens and browns. I do not post anywhere but I can email it to you if you want. Thank you so much for your time 😊
Hi Natasha !! You can find Coliro watercolor sets and Finetec watercolor sets on Amazon, and if you are looking for single pans they have them on a website called Paper and Ink arts, or you can find them on Jacksons art. Also you can find single pan Finetec on Blick ! I have a link to paper and ink arts in the description box of my video called “coliro unboxing” , hope that helps !! If you still cant find it let me know !
Hi Lynette !! Lol , you can never have too many art supplies right ? Lol, have a wonderful holiday and happy coloring to you hun ! By the way i put a list of the exact supracolor names of the colors in case people are interested , in the description box of this video !
Do pastel alcohol markers bleed through? I have a cheap set of alcohol markers but I don't like how they bleed through the paper. I agree about pastels. Thanks for this, I have been watching quite a few of your videos lately, you have lots of good suggestions.....Edited to say I viewed the clip further after my post and understand the ohuhu alcohol markers do not stain the next page, but I am supposing they still stain the back of the page one is coloring on (?)
Hi Eve !!! Yes all alchohol markers bleed to the back of the page !!! So only use alchohol markers on single sided pages ! (Some cheaper alchohol markers will also stain the following pages over time but not ohuhu) hope that makes sense !!! For double sided books use waterbased markers and test them on the paper to make sure they dont ruin the back side of the page.
I mentioned that the acrylic paint pens were about 11$ from Amazon. Also a smaller set of prismacolors are inexpensive here in the US, like the 24 set. But my favorite budget set of pencils ✏️ are the brutfunner squares. I can do a favorite budget friendly supplies video if you’d be interested in watching that.
that would be awesome if you could do a budget one. Not everyone has the budget to buy all the high end things and its annoying only ever seeing them. so a budget version would be great. TY and have a very merry christmas. @@coloredbymaia6476
