Nice ❤❤
I like them both, but the green one a little bit more
Thank you, Gerda!❤️ Maybe it’s a good idea to keep it green indeed😄
I prefer the green version 😍
Thank you for your answer, Teresa!😘♥️
Wonderful idea! This looks like a great exercise! I will try it too. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Enjoy!👩🏻🎨😊
Thank you so much Julia for sharing these important informations that will make our sketching more "easy" 😊
So happy to hear that it was helpful, Catherine!♥️👩🏻🎨
Great information 😊 Never heard of unsplash as another site to check out. Appreciate the effort you put into this video. Thank you 😊
I'm really enjoying Bravebrushes. Thx Julia.
Tania, thank you so much for saying that!♥️ I appreciate it a lot!🥰
Wow! Thank you, that was so helpful.
For lighter greens, I prefer to mix them with blues and yellows. However, for darker greens, I really like phthalo green mixed with some earth tones like red or burnt sienna or burnt umber. In my experience, it is hard to get very dark greens that aren't overly blueish by only using yellows and blues.
Thank you so much for your comment and great advice!❤️ Absolutely agree! I usually use Payne’s Grey or Indigo (a very dark blue color) mixed with one of my yellows (Nickel Azo Yellow is my favorite).
@@julia_henze thanks, I will try that out!
Beautiful sketches and so interesting to get a look into your pencil case! I think of the Polychromos as a soft pencil 😅 but I have never tried a Luminance pencil so I’m not sure how those feel! I have the Derwent Procolour which are my “hard” pencils - sometimes I even struggle with them feeling too hard!
Thank you, Laura!❤️ I think Polychromos is something between Luminance and Procolour which are really hard and I also struggle with them because I can’t get the color I want, also they are not as bright as I like. I would say, order a few luminance pencils and you will fall in love with them forever😄
beautiful work. Can you learn me something like this?
Thank you, Angela!❤️ Some of the sketches in this sketchbook are from tutorial and workshops in Brave Brushes studio (my membership for amateur artists. So, you can learn something like this and much more if you join www.bravebrushes.com or you can come to my offline workshops in Bergschenhoek. I’ll be teaching a watercolor course and a perspective course in the fall. www.juliahenze.com/upcoming-workshops Have a wonderful weekend and let me know if you have any questions about Brave Brushes or about my courses!❤️
Great comparison between soft and hard coloured pencils!
❤❤❤
I can't find the reference of the sharpener...☺ thank you!
Thank you so much for your note, Bel! I added the link now ❤️👩🏻🎨
Ohuhu has just as many colors as Copic. I think all together Ohuhu have 600 and Copic have 350 all together give or take some. So, Ohuhu is actually your best bet for not only color ranges and shades but also budget friendly if you want that brush nib and some of their sets have refills too.
Montblanc is better
Can’t wait to try this!! Thank you 😊
Enjoy!👩🏻🎨❤️
You born a mimic.
Thanks Julia & Anna,great colors and so beautifull flowers ❤!
🌺🌷🩷
Hello. Great to be here.
Amazing workshop, thanks a lot ♥
🩷🌺🌸🌼❤️
I thought there’d be urban sketching.😕
Good point, Sharon! Not everything I do is about urban sketching😉 Do you think we have to take a video with Neocolor crayons for urban sketching? Do you have any specific questions or suggestions? It would be very helpful!🩷
Beautiful work!
Thank you!❤️
I wasn't sure if we were allowed to mix the colours to create a new one
Yes! Definitely!
Really helpful. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for this! I'm a beginner, and I have a question: How do you avoid mixing the colours together when using the same brush?
We’ve just taken a video on that. It will be available on Saturday 😉 Thank you very much for asking your question❤️
@@julia_henze Yay thank you! Can't wait!
Lovely 💜
Thank you!♥️
So good to watch Julia 😍 I love your drawings and admire so much that you explore diverse topics and different medias in your work, that makes so sense to me! 🧡
Thank you so much for your kind words, Teresa!♥️☺️
Thanks for this video. I decided to join the competition. Not sure what to paint yet but having my eyes on some tropical birds. So much fun!
Yeah! Have fun! I think it would work incredible well for tropical birds! Looking forward to seeing your artwork on Instagram🥰❤️
@@julia_henze I have just posted it! I chose a macaw. It was a challenge with these colors (sooo opaque!)
great sketches, Julia, very lively🤩🤩🤩
Thank you, Irene!❤️
Hi Julia, thanks for sharing! What's the color of the Derwent pencil - 4th from the right please?
It's Strawberry. One of my all-time favorites😍
@@julia_henze thank you Julia!
Nice colours, but that green... 😑 I'll probably gonna use 5 of the 6. 😂 Thank you for the post.❤
Haha! I agree! The green is a bit.. let’s say.. strange 😅
Begrijp ik het goed dat opzetten met potlood mag en dan alleen de/een van de kleuren genoemd? Omdat ze zo specifiek in de link grafiet potlood vermelden is mijn vraag mag je met fineliner erbij werken? Dat kan ik eigenlijk niet zien.
Ja, klopt dat je gewoon potlood en minimaal één van deze kleuren. Helaas geen fineliner. Scheelt wel een hoop tijd😉😅
Hi! Will you give us a taste of Anna's box watercolor content?
I will ask Anna if she want to show her next time. It's pretty much the same, but she has a few very nice additions😄
Looking forward to the part 2 :)
Kasturi!☺️❤️
O my God Thank you so much 😊
☺️❤️
I liked it a lot and would love to see the second half!
Thank you, Anne!❤️
С удовольствием посмотрела. Здорово. А мы там были?
Спасибо! Не думаю. Мы, скорее всего, в другое место ездили
Looks doable. That paper! I do like the ,look of watercolour and ink.
It's very beautiful Julia ! Thank you so much for sharing your art and giving us inspiration 😍
Thank you so much for your nice words, Catherine!🥰❤️
So simple technique and beautiful! Love your fruit sketchbook Julia 🧡 food is my favourite subject to sketch :)
Thank you so much, Teresa!😘❤️ Yes, food is an awesome subject to sketch! It so diverse, colorful and yummy🤤😄
Молодец. Мне нравится.
😊❤️
Do you get the lead refills for the pencil from the Ellington company, or do you get refills somewhere else?
There are a few refills inside the pencil but I also have plenty of them of different sizes in my drawer😅 I guess you can buy them pretty much in every store where they sell pens and pencils😊
@@julia_henze I was wondering because I didn't know if there were options in the hardness of the lead. For example, can you get a 6b or something darker? I haven't ever seen refills with options in darkness/hardness. I hope you got credit. After seeing your video, I purchased both a pencil and a pen. I can't wait for them to arrive!
@@tammieoneal1296 Oh, I'm sorry, Tammie! I somehow missed your comment. There are refills with different options in hardness but they are very limited. I know that there are H, HB and B, but not sure if there are more options. They are very thin, so I think it's difficult to make them very soft. I hope you're enjoying your pencil and the pen. Thank you for your purchase and have lots of fun using them!👩🏻🎨❤
Your paintings are beautiful!
Thank you!❤️
this art is crazy
😄
Thank you for the Open Doors weekend ❤
Thank you for being with us, Teresa!❤️ And welcome to Brave Brushes!👩🏻🎨🥰
Hi from France. I'm completely new to your channel, YT just suggested it to me. Your stream was both instructive and nice to follow, thx. I will try to watch the live this Sunday. Meanwhile, I went to see your website (the url given in the description) but could not find any of the resources and content you mentioned at the beginning of the stream. Just the form to subscribe to your newsletter (which I did). I may have missed the obvious but I really could not find those resources/references, thought you might want to know 😅
