Fun fact re: angry Christmas gnomes! Those "gonk" gnomes that are super popular at Christmas are called Nisse in Denmark, and their job is to beat up people who don't celebrate appropriately. It makes me laugh whenever I see them now, imagining these furious little gnomes attacking, Goosebumps style.
Em, you cracking me up with the "excellent gesture." It's just like the language you have no plans to change. I love watching your videos. Just be you. ❤❤❤
The way you colored these give off a holographic optical illusion which is almost trippy when you move the paper around... like at 5:16 my eyes interpret them as holo stickers. It's so fun!! :O
This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you for making it! I've been so inspired to draw log houses, like a log turned into a house not a cabin, lately, but I didn't know how to properly render the logs so I have just been using watercolor washes and leaning into the line work. I'm so excited to whip out my colored pencils and try rendering one of my log houses now!
Oh I love that!!! ❤️ I'm so happy you liked it! And you could even try layering pencils on top of the watercolour because I've seen some people do that and it looks so nice!
Thank you for sharing your process! I absolutely love your use of color, both in gouache and color pencils. I feel like I colored pencils make me too literal with color choices, it’s so inspiring to see how you think outside the box with all those fun neons! ❤
Agree with not needed super fancy colored pencils, I use random brands and they work fine! In fact better? My issue with prismacolor is they break A LOT while sharpening! I also don’t use color pencil as much anymore because it was my first medium when I started my artistic journey (years ago) and now I get fatigue in my wrist easily, so painting is my go to 😅
Do you find the color pencils allow your brain to go on auto pilot after you get past the learning curve? I've been a long-time fan. Color pencils feel safer to me than many other mediums out there. Like you said, they can be erased if needed.
Do you know any colouring pencils that would be good for adding highlights/lighter colours onto alcohol markers? Loved the video btw, your art inspired me to try traditional art again :)
Yeah I like prismacolor and holbein, but if you want a really light highlight you could try pastel pencils. They may need a fixative over top but they look cool as highlight on markers😁
Sure! When the colours are less saturated, they seem greyer and not a bright( I don't really want to use the word bright but I'm not sure what else to use) I don't mean lighter or darker, I mean more packed with colour. Sorry if I didn't explain well from the start there, I'll try to explain better in another video forward😁 I sometimes am using the word "saturated " in relation to another colour its beside, so the colour I'm talking about may not be the most saturated ever, but is more saturated than the "greyer" or more toned down colour. I hope this helps!
She said in that video and in this one that she was doing the tree in its own video 😊 so the rest of the page was in it and she drew the tree, but she wanted to do the tree as it's own thing.

I love this idea and em would do great with some aggressive gnomes 😅
Wonderful Em, I loved every second of this video, thanks so much.
Aww thank you! I'm so happy you liked it!

The first pencil I heard the color as “pork” and thought that’s a funny name but ok. Later I realized it was “cork” but couldn’t unhear the first lol
Hahahahah 😂
You are literally my favorite art TH-camr. Your style is so cute and unique and your commentary is the best, the sense of humor is great 😂
Aww thank you so much I'm honored!

You make colored pencils look so dreamy!!💕
So not only is this sketch page 🔥, but the real time dialog worked out fantastic! I know you were worried but you really did great.

Nice
I’m a hooooo ho HO. For colored pencils….
I want to buy the 500 colored pencil set from kalour *drool* …never mind I have 12 other sets.
Wow just in time, yesterday I went outside to draw trees from life and my drawings were a disaster hehe
Can you explain saturation a bit more? Do you mean it as a synonym for a dark color?
Sure! When the colours are less saturated, they seem greyer and not a bright( I don't really want to use the word bright but I'm not sure what else to use) I don't mean lighter or darker, I mean more packed with colour. Sorry if I didn't explain well from the start there, I'll try to explain better in another video forward😁 I sometimes am using the word "saturated " in relation to another colour its beside, so the colour I'm talking about may not be the most saturated ever, but is more saturated than the "greyer" or more toned down colour. I hope this helps!
Noooo! You cut out re-inking part😭

Am I going potty or was this in the last video? (Maybe I'm just remembering the other doodles you did??) 😅
She said in that video and in this one that she was doing the tree in its own video 😊 so the rest of the page was in it and she drew the tree, but she wanted to do the tree as it's own thing.
@@lmille32 Ah thanks! Must've missed that part haha (I have art vids on in the background mostly). Thanks!
Hahah ya I did the other parts last week but saved this one for the walkthrough😁
