I REFUSE to be without my etchr sketchbooks. I started with the smaller ones and have moved up and have hot press for gouache and cold pressed for watercolor. They’re EXCELLENT sketchbooks. Their watercolor paint is not so much lol. Anyway, your work is lovely.
@@SketchesnScrubshi I’m so sorry to bug you but I tried to go through some of your older videos to find out but I wanted to ask- for your gold watercolor highlights, what do you use? I find myself using the aqua bronze by Schmincke or Finetec/Coliro metallic watercolor. I’m always looking for the best, I’ve tried the handmade ones from Etsy for colored metallics. I find yours to be very bright so I was wondering if you had any recommendations? Thank you!
@@SwedePotato314 Hey! You are not bothering me at all. In fact, quite a few people have asked lol so I may make a video about it. I use the Etchr paints: bit.ly/3UMQwaI If you get them from Etchr and use the code SKETCHES10 you will get 10% off. The set has 12 colours, and the gold in my paintings has been a range of 4 of their different golds. They are not open stock unfortunately, so I started off with royal gold, then made my way through and I am currently on Sand (last 2 paintings). I swatch them out in this video: th-cam.com/video/_sHeZm5uPNw/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps! And feel free to ask questions in future :) If I know the answer, I don't mind sharing x
My comfort is either zentangle images or faces from imagination. I’d love to be able to do florals, nature, landscapes and urban sketching. One day it will happen. Your sketchbook has so much beauty. Thank you for sharing. Keep creating 💙💜💛
Thank you so much MsEbony ❤️❤️❤️ I still remember your amazing art from our sketchbook share session! It’ll definitely happen ❤️ and I look forward to seeing it Xx
Such a gorgeous sketchbook; I really love the floral pages with backgrounds. Your colors really speak to me. I am a newbie but i think my comfort is landscapes or cartoony type characters.
First time viewer, still trying to find my style. Playing around with different mediums. All during covid I have devoured all kinds of artist videos on YT. I have very limited art supplies so I have been very hesitant to just jump in and start. I’m also a perfectionist and getting past that 1st page is very fearful for me, I don’t want to mess it up. My grand daughter is a wonderful artist. She sketches and keeps inching me along. I so admire all the artist work on YT, I am fascinated by everyone’s talent, I so want to paint like all of y’all!❤
Thank you so much for watching! You are not alone with the fear of the first page, I still leave it blank sometimes but that’s okay 🤣😂 it’s a process and with time and your daughters encouragement I hope you come to love your art and the process of creating it 💜💙💜
The florals look very pretty and there's a wide variety of colors in the Roman Szmal set, of which to choose from. Thank you for the lovely sketchbook review, pretty hair lady 😊😊
I love your style. The use of colour and the splashes of gold always catches my eye. I'm glad I'm not the only one who has sudden bursts of output in their sketchbooks. Have you ever been to Atlantis Art Materials? They have so much in their space plus a cat that lives there. I love it and, even though it's not really anywhere near where I normally go in London, it's worth the extra travel to have a poke around.
Thank you so much Christy! I really appreciate your kind words ❤️💜⭐️ You are certainly not the only one 😂😂😂 I haven’t been to Atlantis Art Materials yet - thank you for the heads up x x
My comfort subject is also florals, but more of a wet on dry style and single flowers, rather than bouquets. :) Loved the tour, you have some amazing pieces inside. And you can really see the progress you have made as an artist. It is inspiring :)
My comfort subject is animals. And skies. I wish it was landscapes but I’m not good at them yet, but skies are fun. Thanks for the tour, it’s full of beautiful paintings ❤
I’d love to see both Sonya! Especially as I’m more often focused on the landscape than the sky 😂😅❤️ thank you so much for watching and your kind support ❤️
I love how varied your color palettes are, and how you talk about the experiments of style, material, and color leading up to the absolutely stunning first pages 😍😍 My favorite I think is the purple and yellow page on 20:39, but I also really love the very first double spread. I love the color and energy in your florals :)
I guess my comfort subject is reptiles. Mainly chameleons. While I cannot draw them photo-realistic out of my head, I do know their general body mechanics and layout. Probably a little weird. I really loved your sketchbook. Everything is so pretty! You have a great eye for color! Also, I am now pondering a splurge for an Etchr sketchbook. All my paper is in pads or blocks, and the idea of a sketchbook is appealing to me right now. (My watercolors are loose in a shoebox currently. 🤣)
That is soo interesting! But it explains the name 😂🤣😂 thank you for watching and sharing! Let me know what you decide 😂 I go through phases of only creating on loosepaper/ blocks and then phases in sketchbooks 🤣😂😅
I just used your code to buy one of the square bundles with both hot and cold press papers. (I also snagged the golden paints after watching your review!) Thank you so much for the code and the informative videos! I can't wait till my package arrives!
Right handed…paint all right hand side first- then flip the book upside down and over..the left page is now on the right. But that is if you don’t want the 2 page spreads ❤️
The realistic piece is amazing. And I love all the flower pieces with the gold accents. Etchr gold paints right? I know. They are still in my “want to buy” list 🙈. I love the backgrounds of your florals too. And yes I too am in the no backgrounds phase for my florals at the moment. I love the pink leaves on the gouache piece! Love the angular florals with the flat brush. I should try that too! ❤ Would be cool if you used like a white posca and draw some flowers on the purple acrylic ink. Roses are also my comfort subject. I need to learn how to draw more other types of florals so that I can vary my paintings more 😅
Hi, I love your work! By looking at your stuff it has given me excitment to keep going with watercolor and discover many new possibilities. It's so refreshing to see that you are a believer and put scripture in your work, I want to do that. The blue and yellow roses what colors and brands did you use? I was trying to pinpoint that blue especially, but its unlike any of the blues I have. Thanks and God bless! 😊
What a beatiful sketch book .I love it. What do you use for the Gold colour. I think you have your very own nice style it is lovely. Many greetings Christiane from Berlin Germany 😊
I don’t think I have found my comfort sketches yet. Still all over the board trying to find what inspires me most
That’s a beautiful thing too! Xx
Me toooooo, I think it may be food tho.

It is Etchr indeed😂😂😂
Thank you! I had a similar idea about drawing on the purple, I was thinking dip pen lol but lost motivation 😂 should have thought of posca x
My comfort subject are florals too 🍀
Great minds think alike 💜
@@SketchesnScrubs That‘s right 🥰❤️
Beautiful work!🌸🕊️
Thank you so much Imani x
@@SketchesnScrubs 🥰
I’m supposed to have a comfort subject? I did not know that 😂. I suppose my comfort subject is paintings by Peter Sheeler.
No “supposed to “ in my book 😂

Thank you so much! Golden Watercolours: bit.ly/3UMQwaI
:D x
Thank you but you sent me a link to the Jacksons Shop.
I wanted to know what colour you used for the goldenen leaves ?
Hey, it is the golden set in the link - I use a range / mixture of them throughout to create my leaves x
@@SketchesnScrubs dear SS if I have found the one you actually mean it is from Etchr. is that the one you are using? Greetings Christiane 😀
🍔
Gorgeous pages! ❤
Thank you so much! Xx
