Getting chocolate on your paper is so relatable. Happens to me more often than I am willing to admit 🙈
Same!
I thought you were going to say, " it happens to me more often than not." And I was going to say, "Honestly, same!" 😂
I haven’t dabbled in watercolor in a bit but this fuels my hunger for some good watercolors… also Adam being all over Steph’s art is so cute, love you two
We're so happy you're feeling inspired! We love you too!!
@Doodle date, hugs you both tight. I have missed you both so much, One of our doggies passed on Monday and I had to visit the ER on Sunday due to fatigue and insomnia from not having my meds. You both are a ray of sunshine in my weekend so thank you.
oh gosh what a crazy few days you've had Erika, please take time for yourself and we hope that video helps if only even a tiny bit!!
@@DoodleDate You’re videos help so much, thank you both hugs
That sucks so hard. I hope for your life to get easier ❤
Omg yes I've missed these review videos! Not that I don't love the vlogs, I just really like seeing the different ways you guys test out supplies :D Love how the pieces turned out
Yay! Thank you!
It was fun to review something again after so long! We were very lucky to be chosen for these 😊
Adam calling the eyes Paul is so funny to me 😄 They both turned out beautiful. I hope to get these paints one day, they're gorgeous. I have two of Paul Rubens other watercolour sets & really love them, such great quality 🧡
Thank you so much Kayleigh! We totally agree the colours in this set are really fantastic ❤
Oooooo fancy pants Magee 🤣🥰
We had to put our fancy hats on for this one LOL
These paints look so good! And that paper isn’t buckling with the water!
But how the hell do you spell chauffeur 🤔
Seeing Adamo using watercolor without watering it down a bunch was interesting to see. I also really like Steph’s picture, the idea is really neat.
This coming a week later actually really worked out well for my schedule. 😅 I was out for a 🏹 competition last week.
This is such cute LOREEEE
And I was surprised too, Adamo loves that blue more than any watercolour I have ever seen LOL
I have the older version of their 48-color set and I love it to bits. I like the older plain bubblegum pink tin box though
The gold streaks in the new one feels very busy to me for some reason
I like this one because it reminds me of a zebra HAHA
Haven't used watercolour in ages but this really inspired me
That's awesome!! These really inspired us too, i hope that shines through in the video :D
Your joy is so contagious
HAHA YES THANK YOU AUGUST
We were hoping someone would notice our brand new audio equipment
lol of course!! such an impressive upgrade how could I not notice 😌💫
I really wanna see you guys paint with those neon watercolors sometime! The ones I saw on amazon
Now those sound fancy! Time to have a look O:
Missed you guys! Glad you've uploaded today. Really need a doodle date video this evening for some comforting company 😊
Hope you enjoyed it!
It's always a pleasure to bring you guys a new video! ❤
These paints are just luscious 😻 and that glitter paper is mind blowing. What a delightful time!
We had the best time using these! I hope it shines through in the video too! ❤️
The reason I love this channel so much is because of how supportive and lovely y’all are to each other. It’s just beautiful to witness!
I was a huge fan of your channel when I was in middle school and super into art. 7 years later and I’m 19 now, I no longer do much art but I still consider myself a creative person and love to craft. You two have always been such an inspiration for me. Recently I’ve gotten back into your videos, watching you fills me with such nostalgia and helps me unwind after hard days. Keep doing what you’re doing, it makes a difference ❤️
Aww oh gosh thank you so much cedar! This really made our day and its so wonderful to hear that youre still being creative after all this time ❤
I love it when I get a new set of paints I always keep all the little paper wrappers to paste in my current journal to write all kinds of nice things about the Color’s when I use them. It’s nice to see a company reaching out to gift you things to try out you two should be getting way more companies sending you things everyone loves it when Sunday arrives cause it’s time for doodledate.
Steph has done something very similar 👀
Oh gosh I want these watercolors! They're so beautiful and vibrant! Now if only I could get them to send them to me for free! 😂
There isnt a single colour we dislike or underperforms in this set! We're so impressed :D
ooo crab catching is so fun we used to do it as family in Maine and after we would have a race to set them free! I love your channel i have been watching you guys for 6+ years now and find lots of comfort in watching your videos
Thank you so much Harley!! This really warms our hearts ❤
In the middle of a very stressful move rn, happy to have you guys try some delicious watercolors, so I can take a little rest while I have dinner! Much love
Good luck with your move! Don't forget to stay hydrated🙂
Take care dini! Remember to take breaks, moving is so dang stressful!
now i wanna paint too, but everything is in boxes oh no lol!
@@lara_capybara thank you
Adamo gushing over the the colors is so cute 🤭🩷
I just loved that blue so much 🤣
Using the glitter paper to bring out the night sky inspiration in the girl was so good!
It was super fun to experiment with!!
doodle date upload. a joyous day.
We hope you enjoy the video!! ❤
I think this is the earliest I have ever been to any video!
And it's wonderful to see you! :D
We hope you enjoy the video!
It’s Chinese! Mandarin is the spoken dialect. Written Chinese is more or less the same across regions. China uses Simplified Chinese and Taiwan uses Traditional Chinese- but it’s similar enough for the most part to be mutually legible. Mandarin is the official dialect and the one used by the government and it’s what people usually mean when they’re asked if someone “speaks Chinese,” but depending on the region, Chinese people speak a variety of dialects.
Thanks for the info! I'm so curious about world languages, they're so interesting to me 😮
Less chalkiness than student grade and decent lightfastness on the Blue Wool Scale (each color is different).
These are just so dang smooooooth!
ooOoO I love both your watercolour works! 🤩🤩Would love to buy a print of them 🥰🥰
Thank you so much! These really are gorgeous paints!! ❤
I love falling asleep to your videos. The love that radiates from everything you both do protects me from nightmares and sad feelings.
Omg I'm earlyy!
Those watercolor box looks so prettyyyy!! So fancy :0
It really is! The presentation on these is really something else!!
The packaging looks so fancy! ✨ So does the glittery paper.
I love the gradient of the dress! And the color combo for the sea vase 💜
Hullo Steph & Adam, I did purchase the Pink Palette for my wife and then re-loaded it with DaVinci watercolor pants! They are also Professional grade paints. I know that many people believe that China has used the recipe from the Rubens paints for other paint lines they are selling at a discount. Sometimes using not as professional grade pigments and some believe that they have even started cutting costs with the Rubens paints too. I am glad your enjoying these paints. BOTH OF THE ARTWORKS LOOK LOVELY!
That's so sweet of you Pete! Receiving art supplies as gifts is such a kind gesture!! I hope the new watercolour are serving you well too!
your excitement for these paints is so contagious, feeling myself getting hyped to play with watercolours again 👀
Watercolour is awesome DO IT NOW
i don't paint anymore but this is basically the best advert for those watercolors and now i want them haha
Oh I’m so happy to see another video of Adam and Steph drawing together! I’ve missed this kind of format!
Hope you enjoyed it! 😊
Just seeing Adamo using saturated colors proves that he really loves these watercolors!
That's the sign of some quality watercolour right there LOL
oh yeah if theres one thing the paul rubens does well, its their packaging!! always looks beautiful :)) but i do like the paints as well, i bought their flower matching set a few years back!
Opening then was peak experience omg ❤️
love the colors yall chose! the finial pieces turned out so nice! steph, your sea vase reminds me of my creek days as a kid. i would find so many old glass bottles covered in algea, snails, and various aquatic plants that i would use to decorate my woodland hideaways!
Aww that sounds like such a wholesome memory ;u;
I love unwrapping paint pans. One of the etsy shops I get handmade paints from uses colourful foil which increases the sweetie vibes. I also regularly get chocolate on my paper.
These look incredible, your art very much shows them off well. I love both pictures and the ideas behind them so much. I want the mermaid who owns the vase to meet the star maker and fall in love and have trists (sp?) on the horizon where the sky meets the sea.
Colourful foil is such a vibe and holo plastic too 😭😭😭
I've been watching you guys for years now and its amazing how much you improved in art. I'm so happy that i get to watch you do art. It was so lovely seeing you be all happy about these watercolors c:
That's so sweet of you Lea! Thank you so much 😭❤️
These are incredible!!! I love how you did the hands, Adam! the bottle is so pretty too Steph! You are both so inspiring and creative. Seeing this really inspires me to do more traditional art again. Thank for bringing the magic, creativity, and smiles to all of us. :D
Oh gosh you're so welcome!! We had the best time using these!! ❤️
love that these paints made you both leave your comfort zones and your doing amazing at it!
I’m so tempted to get back into watercolor after watching this. These look amazing!! 😻
Go for it Feline, you could create something so cute with these!!
This felt like an old school video and i LOVE it!
Aww thank you so much Melody!!
You're never gonna believe this but I love that shade of purple on steph's bottle art
By a huge coincidence, I was painting a watercolour piece on that exact paper this afternoon! It is sparkly, and the spangliness (it’s a word, don’t judge! 😁) stays even after it’s been painted on. I love the way it makes every colour look just a little magical, in a subtle way, and it can take a fair amount of water as it’s 100% cotton. I do have a set of the Rubens watercolours too, though they’re currently about 5000 miles away from where I am, so I used my Rosa Gallery paints instead.
Great video, fab painting and I love how excited Adam got about the blue. 😁
I have this set and I love it! Such quality paint.
It really is! We're so happy with the quality of these 😊
Those watercolors look so good! Both artworks are amazing! 💙
Thank you so much 😀
What a fun review 🤩 The paints look beautiful and I love your artworks.
Thank you so much!
i love you guys so much never stop posting, you guys are the happy part of my day, you cheer me up from all the growing pains
We love making videos! We don't wanna go anywhere ❤️😭
Watercolor pigment nerd here, just wanted to pop,in and let Adam know that the blue he loved so much is Ultramarine Blue. I recognized the pigment code on the swatch card (PB29). It’s a great pigment, most granulate beautifully and are such lovely warm blues. Plus if you mix it with other colors, it’ll make them granulate too and you can get cool effects.
i get so happy seeing you guys!! every video is like hanging out with pals, and it’s so comforting & warm and i just love your combined whimsy. ❤
Thank you so much!! It really brightens our day to hear we help you guys 😭
Ah I have wanted to get a set by this company forever! I'm so glad you guys got to try them ❤ ❤❤
It's so good! We hope you get to try them too Zimika!!
Love your videos. Thank you for beeing you. You are my inspiration ❤ you make my day❤
You are so welcome!!
It's great to see you got sent stuff again - i think it's been a while? A good sign, for sure.
I'm kind of shocked that Adam didn't water his pigments down to homeopathic levels like usual! Thats an endorsement if i ever saw one! The paints look lovely, it's a shame I don't do watercolour or I'd be all over them❤
Oh wow, these look so pretty! I love what you created with them
Aww thank you Silva!!
Adam gushing over Steph never ever EVERRRR gets old ❤
Good because imma never stop LMAO
the colors and your art are gorgeous! happy to be seeing you guys again :)
Mmm those pans look so JUICY.
Also Adam saying they are wrapped like little candies made me think it would be so fun to have a little art supply store that is themed like a candy shop.
That would be so cute omg! They could even have the old glass jars and things too 😊
Adam I'm proud of you for saturating your watercolor! That is growth 🥲🥲🥲
THANK YOU SURINA!! ✨✨
Adamo used actual color 😮 not like a mild sneeze of water color on the paper lol. Thats how you know these are good watercolors. Its the highest compliment
Hahaha I know right, I was just as shocked as you are!
Who is this man and what did he do with Adam?!!
I went to check the price on the watercolours and I will be honest: I was expecting them to cost way more!! They are so stunning and pigmented.
For the price we've been so impressed with them!!
ooooh these look fancy!! I have the pink sketchbook by paul rubens and it's really good but unfortunately only comes in hot pressed 🥰
Oh I didn't know they did pink ones! Imma check those out too LOL
The Paul Rubens paints are lovely! They're not my faves my any means (Sennelier/random handmade paint my beloved) but they're consistent and reliable so I can always recommend them :)
Oh handmade ones are just so magical and cute, I completely agree ❤️
I was literally about to write that you should try their glitter paper and then I saw adam show it
We gotchu ✨
Omg Adam, the hands with the sparkles! So pretty! And the cute simple shape of the hair as well. Love ❤
Thank you so much!! 😊
I may be late to the game (aka video) but I love the concepts you both came up with, and man was it a joy seeing you enthuse over the watercolours ☺They definitely are lovely and vibrant, and made me think of my own exploration of the coast, like seeing little anemones and limpets!
Aw thank you so much!! So glad the video was able to bring you some beach nostalgia, there's so many fun looking things in the sea
@@DoodleDate And thank YOU! ^_^ Exactly! I love exploring different ecosystems, large or small
WoW!!!!!!!! Those look GORGeous!!!!!
14:38 "a smattering of breasts." That's a sentence I've never heard before! 😂😂
Your drawings are amazing 🤩
Ugh, well now I'm going to have to buy paper I don't need because it glitters. Damn it!!!
The glitter was such an amazing surprise LOL
@DoodleDate
I jumped to buy it lol. Shared it with my holo queen too.
I can't wait to get it now hehe!
Adam is that a spork microphone??? How fancy!
Only the best, most advanced audio equipment here!!
Omg! I think i own these!
AWESOME!! We hope you create something wonderful with these too! 💖
The fork is now apart of doodle date lore😭
YES HAHAHA
Ooh, sea vase--that's a neat idea =)
I think so too! Steph did such a wonderful job with these and really did them justice imo!
I love Paul Ruben paints! I am glad the company sent you some. Question: When writing the names on the half pans, do you also write the pigment numbers on the other side of the half pans? I was thinking that the blue dress was an ultramarine blue (Pb 29), but I am not sure. The paints are cool.
((immediately copying both of these drawing ideas 😈😈)) I feel like I'd never use those watercolors because they're so pretty, I'd just admire them all day
You could have also put the stickers under the pans and trimmed them enough to not cover the paint
Not a bad idea!!
💖
❤️❤️❤️
begging for a live with these bad boys??????
OOOO that sounds good!!
I like when you get to undress the watercolors. THE GLITTER PAPER IS INSANE!!!!! That's right, do not eat the paints! They are too delicious, you won't be able to stop!
Where are you guys from btw? I’ve always been curious about your accents. I’m bad at telling accents haha. 😅
✨🌙🎨📓
Steph. You have outdone yourself 🎉 I always love your style but this takes the cake
Thanks so much! 😊❤️❤️
Somehow “we dOnT LiKe MuDdY pAiNts” really got me 😂😂😂
I still have my Paul Ruben’s tin after years cause I refill the ones I use the most with Daniel Smith watercolors lol
An up cycle if I ever heard one LOL
