  • Hello my artistic friends! YOU voted for it, so here you go! I'm excited to show you my crazy colored pencil collection. I've actually downsized (kinda)! So here is part 2 which includes unboxing 2 brand new colored pencil sets, and some familiar faces from the Derwent line & Koh-i-Noor. While part 1 focused on many different brands including Holbein, Prismacolor, and Faber-Castell, this video focuses on some specialty sets. Which ones? You'll just have to watch!

    Edit: oh also....LOOOOOOVVVVVEE! The blue eyeshadow and the pop of bright/fluorescent pink color in the jacket, omg just love it -remember the green?!? So awesome.....we Gen Xers had THE BEST era to grow up in!!! The last decade of innovative clothing style ( everything else has really just repeated styles from the 20th Centry - mainly the latter half ); we had the greatest pop of colors for everything from clothes, objects, makeup - miss my blue and green mascara that matched my eyeliner and eyeshadow; best music! The rock ballads, the country, the pop, boy bands, rap, country rock, the alternative genre started, etc...those who were later gen Xrs brought in the 90s music, which was stil pretty good. The turn of the Centry brought all of the auto-tune and computer produced music giving everything -regardless of genre-the same feel/sound! *sigh* The kids today just don’t even know what they’re missing!!

    Wow...you are the color pencil Boss Diva Queen 👑! Another YT coloring channel that I think is really good & I think Lindsay Frugal Crafter follows her is Jennifer, “Coloring Bliss.” She does a deep dive into color pencils, all sorts of markers and anything people can color with. No fine art...just coloring. Actually coloring is what got my art mojo going again after not doing much of anything for years. At some point I wanted more and wanted to do my own thing. But it’s a great way to learn about colors and blending and can be very therapeutic. And I have some coloring books that were very challenging if I was going to do the art well (like the Game of Thrones coloring book.). But for those of us who want to produce our own art, just coloring someone else’s art and nothing else can eventually become a bit hollow.

    • @ArtistJane
      @ArtistJane  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Nancy! Good to see you here! I love Jennifer’s videos and she has swatch sheets on her website! I appreciate all the time and effort she passionately puts into her videos! That’s awesome that coloring inspired you to get back into art. I know what you mean - you get that spark to create something unique after a while. Is it weird that I sometimes buy the coloring books because some of them have beautiful artwork and then never get colored? There’s one called “The Ink House” that I have and it’s absolutely stunning artwork!

    I love your collection of pencils and it seems like my collection is growing too lol I was inspired by your last video of part one to get the Derwent Chrowmaflow and the Art n Fly. So I just got them and can't wait to start really using them. I do have the 120 Castle arts in that same case and they are amazing to use. I do also have the
    Schpirerr Farben 72 pencils. They are awesome pencils and great for blending and that same pencil that broke for you broke for me when I open it. It's been a while since I used them but I will use them again soon. Some of the smell of the pencils got to me but I would see them for very detailed designs to colour. I am def going to save up funds for the Derwent Lightfast for sure. I am colourist and my colouring have advanced a lot more now and I blog about it. Awesome video and I hope to see more soon.

    Love the video! I have both Brutfuner squares, and Deli 72's. There are a few long standing Chinese companies with their own brands. One is Deli. Marco Renoir is another and I have been lusting after the Master series for a while, and now they have a new 120 set...yummy. Also I have the Nyoni 120. They are white labelled as Markart in the US. I love my Nyoni's over the Deli and the Brutfuner squares, they are creamier and on a level with the Marco Renoir to me. I really enjoy using them over the others!

      She's right though. If things are really wrong, lazily put together, cheaply made and low quality they should always be called out. We all pay premium $$$$$$ for our stuff and supplies and you all know how much art needs to be created and sold for all of it. Plus art supplies are very expensive. For some reason the industry thinks we are made of gold.
      That goes for art supplies and evetything related to it.

    Loved your video. I'm not an artist nor do I color in books. I've been drawing meditative art for several years. I use a lot of color pencils as well as collect them. I especially used them for my mandals I draw. I'm now dabbling into neuroart with pastels and watercolor pencils. I have many of the sets you've presented. Inktense and Caron-dashe(?) Are my most high end ones. The tricolor are fun, the square pencils are good and the SFarben pencils are elegant like the artist in the picture! Some suggestions include Lyra and Stabillo color pencils, both of which lay down very softly, Derwent drawing pencils(all Derwent products are great)and my neocolor crayons. My finances have taken a hit in these last two years. This hobby has relieved my stress and relived my pain from my RA (arthritis). Thanks for your info and fun in sharing. I never watched utube at all before 2020,

    So happy to see part two of the coloured pencil epic!!!, Derwent are my main go to brand and have been for years I have everyone of the ranges they make,though they have retired a lot of the older ranges,the Inktense are my hands down absolute favourite I have every colour in the range and the pan set as well,it's in vividness I love in these pencils.Derwent really seem to want to invent new types and ranges of pencils. I do have a full set of the Lightfast,you will love these too,they bland and layer really beautifully and also go great over makers too. I do have the castle arts Kandinsy set, because the colours appealed to me and he's also an artist I love as well,but I love that they themed sets to known artists,a great idea. I have the Tri tone pencils too and love the effects you can get with these,tend to use them in mixed meia pieces,they are fun,but actually I would say they are great for the serious artist too. I have full set of the Carb Othello pastel pencils too and love these over watercolours,I would say to keep them,and think about using them with another medium,I don't use them on their own,but in combination with watercolours they are brilliant,and theey are not as fragile as other pastel pencil ranges.I struggle to find good metallic pencils still,no-ones pefected them yet for me, though Derewent did make a small set of watersoluable metallics that I loved and were lovely, but they retired them some time ago,that said I did get all the Holbien metallic pencils open stock,and have yet to try these. I think budget friendly pencils may be better for works you are going to scan.But I also love woodless pencils too and have some by Arteza,Derwent and Caran d,Ache,I ave them in watercolour and wax/oil based,but the slight down side to the woodless watercolour pencils, if your hands get a litle sweaty they melt onto your skin,so you end up with rainbow skin!!1, but woodless encils are ggreat for mixed media pieces.Loving the blue nails and the blue eyeshadows too!!! I might try the carb othello pencils over the Art 'n' Fly markers to see what kind of effects I can get...... I think a video on all your watercolour pencils would be great, I tend to favour this type of pencil and have loved this type for years but it would be great to hear your take on them as a medium,but budget watercolour pencils are not great. I think Derwent and Caran D'Arche are the better brand for watercolour pencils that I have found from using them for a while.

If youu have any reccomendations for a good brand of metallic pencils let me know,as metallics are a staple in my work and I'd love to have a good cahce of metallic pencils that are opaque and layer well.I do have a ful set of the Derwent Inktense blocks,but again I use them over watercolors and in mixed media pieces they are perfect for that.

The Set is called Marco Tribute Masters Collection. The packaging they come in is really stunning,there is an outer box beautifully printed and inside this the pencils are in sets of ten in a book type box inside the main box,each one is themed to an artist,the books have a magnetic closure and inside the pencils are set in a foam bed.the sets are: Monet-purples & pinks,Degas-browns & ochres,Klimt-yellows and golds,Matisse-Reds & oranges,Renoir-Greens,Cezanne-darker greens-aquas,Van gough-darker blues & darker purples,Escher-greys and blacks.They are rich and really pigmented and layer beautifully,my set was a gift but they retail around £60.The whole set is a true thing of beauty it really is,for something so stunningly packaged the price is amaxzing!.As soon as I unwrapped them I thought I must tell Jane about these!!!. Also a recent discovery you might want to try out,Derwent have made a great 100% cotton paper especially for their lightfast pencils,but I think it would work as a good ground for all pencils,its a slightly off white colour,so far it's a great surface to work with.

    Love this - you're a kindred spirit. If you're looking for another good one, the Mitsubishi Uni are amazing - you can get the box of 100 from Discovery Mall Japan for a much more reasonable price (and super fast shipping) than Amazon. I think I like them maybe more than the Holbein - the Mitsubishis hold a crazy sharp point, which I love. I love the colour and the texture of the Holbeins, but they break worse than the Prismacolors. I've only just discovered you. Have you done a similar series on watercolor/gouache? I love your esthetic. I'll be following you with interest. Thanks for this.

I'd be interested to see you use some of the budget ones and hear your take on them; colorists and artists sometimes have different thoughts about pencils because they get used in different ways. I just recently got the Deli and love them. I also like my Brutfuners...well I like a lot of my pencils but these are a couple of my newest additions and they are great for coloring with, that is unless the paper in the books are not so great...Thanks for putting this video together, I know it takes time and just want you to know it is appreciated.

    I got the Koh-I-Noor Progressos in the "Magic" variation. Love them, but they always felt a bit hard for a crampy - handed lefty like me ;) I'm almost sure that the Tri-Tone ones would be a bit softer than those, so they are on my list still :3 (more into watercolours right now, so that's what I'm building up on right now ^^')
    Love the idea for the Castle Art boxes, seems like a great buy as a gift if you buy the dedicated set to someones favourite artist :)
    I'm almost sure that Brutfuner would be a French word, it's definitely not a German one 😅 Yep, and the writing is totally Chinese, or a language variant with a writing system based on that 😊

    The worldwide shortage of shipping containers and ships, added to the debacle in the Suez Canal recently, have led to an increasing supply shortage problem. Open stock pencils in the Derwent Lightfast range has been backordered for two and a half months. Yes, I have watched and waited for my own backordered and I know from my thirty plus years of ordering supplies from B L I C K, that they have consistently high quality customer service. People, it,is time to stockpile food and anything else you consider essential to your life.

    I have been eyeing those Deli pencils. I am a colorist, but I do draw as well. I am not a professional artist though. I have been drawing for years before I ever picked up a coloring book. I love coloring though, it's one of my favorite hobbies. I placed an order at Blick back in February for some open stock of the Lightfast and I have received about 8 of the pencils so far, of the 20 I ordered. They are trickling in slowly but surely. Some of them say they won't be in stock until June. They have been on backorder for awhile. I talked to Blick the other day and the CSR said she believes Derwent is behind due to Covid, and the UK shutting down a few months back. I do LOVE them. They are similar to Luminance imo, and I almost think I like the LIghtfast better? I picked up the Brutfuner's a couple weeks ago. After watching countless reviews I caved and got them. I don't really own any budget pencils (besides Crayola), so these are my first set. I I actually like them, they're pretty good. I loove my Inktense. I don't give them enough love though, but I really do love them. You might be stressed coloring because of the kind of book your are coloring in. Kerby's books are notoriously busy, with lots going on. Trying to pick a cohesive color palette with so much happening is not easy to do, at least not for me. LOL Thank you for sharing all your colored pencils, loved seeing your collection!

    About those pedigree colored pencils, I think the reference to M A P M A K I N G refers to the practice of having children draw and color in maps of whatever states or countries th.ey were studying in social studies class. I remember enjoying that aspect of class enormously, and it is a great way to build a mental map of the world.

Derwent also make a paint pan set in the Graphatint range which is great for landscape studies. In terms od colours Graphitint is not the biggest range,but I love these pencils and use them a lot.
