I love that you always make your reviews so interesting.. with great observations, history of the artists. You really go the extra step. Thank You so much for sharing your insights with us.
I bought the spiral bound book from Amazon UK recently. I don't think any thought was given to the layout, as the spiral eats into a good centimetre of each page and limits your ability to colour. What a shame! Still, it's a beautiful book, like you said.
I think TH-cam played up for me as I could hear you but while the video played no illustrations flowed for me to see. But 🙏Claire I got the idea by using the 10sec button. It looks a gorgeous book as I love Disney and your voice was lovely to listen too😄😘🌹
Absolutely beautiful you are so talented. Thomas Kinkaid would have been very impressed with it too. He came to our town several times. There was a shop that carried alot of his work. He was a very kind man. And so so talented. Love your Utube. Watch everyone you do.
Thank you for this rewiew. I'm going to buy this book because I love Disney and Thomas Kinkade art. I want to ask you a question: if I color the black and white page, the original picture behind the page will ruin?
Thank you! You colored a page (wonderfully), so the image behind has not been ruined? This will be my first coloring book and I'm really afraid because I know it's very difficult to color but I want to try the same :)
I just got this coloring book finally after it dropped to like 5 or 6 bucks on Amazon, can't pass that up right. But I'll admit it's a little intimidating how sooo detailed and micro lined etc it is. I want to start but it's like uhm. Where and how lol. Also the paper seems super thin, and I love my alcohol markers but I'm scared to destroy the reference photo with my markers ghosting. Hmm. So I'm excited to see your thoughts on this, soo much! Thank you
@@ColourwithClaire thank you my dear, all 3 of my gessos leave a tooth behind though but if I feel like actually going through the extra work and sanding etc I'll def. Give it a try. Just been avoiding it because it's a process in itself lol not to mention hard with a rambunctious 17 mo old tryna get into everything I do hahaha. But hey after I can color him jkjk
Can you use markers on this book? The ones I have are non bleed through but I wasn’t sure how they would hold up because of the lack of thickness of the paper.
I purchased 2 of these books, one for me and one for my dtr (27) and the ONLY reason I purchased them were because they were Disney and she collects that kind of stuff (I bought mine just because I was interested in coloring it lol) Anyway, I tried, I REALLY did, to make a go of it. It's too fussy for me :( and I'm not quite professed enough to fill in backgrounds just yet lol. My daughter hasn't touched hers (no desire to color). The paper seemed too slick, but then again, I only use colored pencils so maybe another medium would work. Now, the reason I only bought the book is, like I said, its Disney. Thomas Kinkade, on the other hand, was a fraudulent, womanizing, alcoholic that had his interns do most of his work. As an artist myself, this was appalling to me, a blatant abuse of their naivete'. I have a feeling mine will end up in the bin.

I like your idea of changing the colour scheme "halloween"

Aww thank you, and it's nice to hear that Thomas was such a nice guy as well as an amazingly talented artist!
You’re amazing
great review.... i am coloring in this book and it will take some time to finish all the pages but great review
I've just bought this thank you :)
Great review
Wow, yes no brainer lol thank u. Could even get it spiralled. 😊
Do you think the paper would work with intense? Beautiful book!
Thank you for this rewiew. I'm going to buy this book because I love Disney and Thomas Kinkade art. I want to ask you a question: if I color the black and white page, the original picture behind the page will ruin?
No you should be fine, just try to colour lightly x
Thank you! You colored a page (wonderfully), so the image behind has not been ruined? This will be my first coloring book and I'm really afraid because I know it's very difficult to color but I want to try the same :)
The paper isn’t great so wetter media might bleed but if you’re careful you’ll be fine. Maybe try using pencils if you’re concerned?
Yes I'm going to buy a set of 72 Marco Raffine's pencils. I know that they are not very professional but they are quite good to start
Cool
Wondering if you used watercolor pencil on the water?
No, all prismas :)

Try a layer of smooth gesso, should act as a barrier to your markers xx

How did u paint the water?

I would be very careful of using wet media because of the thin paper
Wow this is beautiful. Claire do you get a kick back from me ordering via your link? I have anyway 😁xx
Thank you! x
Can you use watercolours on this book
I@m shure you already did this review Claire but maybee i imagine that but i knew everythings you've say that's weird LOL!
