As a newbie, this is very helpful to see!

this video is way, WAY too rambly. even with the intro skip. please just get to the point.

Hello Coloring Chemist, I realize I'm going to ask you a question that you did a video on it about 6 months ago - trying bout different coloring book papers using Kuretake Zig Clean Color brush pens. I am sport I didn't see that video until today, Nov 21, 2024. My question is about trying out Zig clean color brush pens in Tuttle published coloring books. They are very well made, beautiful art work, the line work page is a copy of Japanese wood block prints created between 1700's to mid 1900's. They are about 9" x 12" and the inside paper is thick and smooth. The titles are: Beautiful Women; In A Japanese Garden; Floating World; The Colours of Asia; Meditations On Tea; and A Touch of Asia. All originally published between 2016 & 2017. The books are beautiful just as they are, each color print of original painting is opposite the black line design of same piece. I'd like to hear about your experiments using the Zig brush pens if you have tried any of these gorgeous coloring books. Thank you! Kris

How can you tell beforehand which books are printed on Amazon paper? I wish the publisher would tell us the pounds and roughness/smoothness of their pages

I have to stop watching your videos - you keep showing me art supplies I have to have. I didn’t know the Lightwish super golden markers came in a fine tip, & I need them! Thank you so much for all the info you share.

I cannot find those pigment pens by we r memory keepers, do you have a link?

Yay! I love your chemistry and art videos. I hope to see more. It scratches both my artistic and science oriented itches. 🥰

Hey Connie. Love watching your videos. I was wondering if you could do a video showing how you use your ink pens to color. I have the STABILO pens and would love to watch some coloring with there ink pens. Thanks, Sue

HI Connie, Always great video. The Pantone Markers are alcohol markers. They are the only alcohol markers that use pigments. I don’t know about steadtler, but pit pens are considered water based.

Wonderful comprehensive video Connie.🥰

Hey try this.. I saw it on a very old video recently and it works great for any waterbased/pigment pen, by far the easiest/smoothest method I've found. It made me pick up my waterbased pens again. Put the darker color on a palette and then pick it up with the lighter color. It's a variation on tip to tip blending but much easier to control both in how much color you pick up and how fast it blends on the page. It also makes blending small areas easier It's only a two color blend but you get the appearance of way more colors since the ink mixes as it lays down without having to have a million pens. You can add a few colors to the palette at once and pick them up with the same pen and get nice variation of color for things like leaves, or bricks. You can also pick up more than one color at a time and mix them straight on the pen. You can use a blender pen to pick up a color and blend it to clear (very helpful when blending into another color already on the page), or the white pen to do the same and blend it to white. Be sure to start your application in the darkest area and work with side to side motion or small circles out to the lighter area.

Your skills are outstanding-brilliant!

Hi Connie ! I am late to viewing this! I was going to sit and watch this a few times!!! I was so saddened to hear that Hanna had the health issues again! So I guess we will have to enjoy what we can? I like that you have them all! The time garden, then the night voyage and the time chamber I think? I love these books too! Look at Doodle Robot, she did a really cool pg change on one of them! Yes Amanda has been talking about the Molotov markers!!! I got the arrtex as well!!! I watched Doodle Robot do a review of them and I’m glad i got them!!!! I dont know if you can use Jet Pens in Canada? That is where I get the Pental dual hybrids from and they have some really cool colors? thanks for sharing your experience!!! Have a super weekend!!!

Thanks so much for the links to the lovely, shiny background techniques! Much appreciated! I have the Neocolor I crayons, but no tempera sticks, so Im excited to give them a try, too~

[Sorry if im missing out on something, watched the full video 4 months ago, and now only the last chapter] Did you actually try out the blending liquid? Does it work well? Better or worse when filled in the pen? And do they also work with the Pitt Artist Pens? Thank you for your all your videos about my probably most favourite medium :)

Awesome haul connie❤❤❤❤

Hi Connie. The case for the tape is to keep the edges clean. If you have seen a roll of masking tape that has been laying around in a workshop you know how dirty those edges can get. I prefer the frog tape to the 3M blue painters tape when I watercolor. I think you will like it. Keep making content and I will keep watching to the end.

I am in the US and I also ordered the Zest-it and the UK sent it to me but also as you said at a pricey shipping cost. And I like you was very surprised they did.

Ooh, Connie, can you let me know which video you showed the gorgeous, shiny background techniques in Small Victories at 1:18:19? Thanx much!

Hi Connie! I am so happy for you to figure out with the workable spray! Should this also work wit just fixation spray?

All your coloring pages are beautiful and we learn from our mistakes and we get better in time

All coloring books are beautiful just like when people color them they do wonderful job on them❤😊

Love your channel! I’m fairly new to it, but I really enjoy hearing your takes on things (and the occasional sciency stuff 🧐☺️). I’ve been eyeing the books that you showed after the Hanna Karlzon books for a while. Would you consider doing a flip through of those?

RJ Hamptons books are.cute simple with detail. Look at A frogs Tail and Around the World. He has several.

Connie, I’m glad you purchased and also liked those “pigment pens” that are really just thin tempura paint sticks that I mentioned to you on a past video. I only have the pastel set and none of mine are dry or crumbly like you are experiencing with a few in the full set. That is disappointing for sure. I wonder if the whole stick is partially dry or just the exposed tip. It is too bad that the Pantone pens aren’t like Pitt/Staedtler pigments pens, but good at the same time since the price for them is so high! Have you tried the Zig Brushables? They are dual ended pigment ink pens made for card makers I think. They have two colors per pen - one end is a lighter tint of the other end. They are also expensive but not as expensive as those Pantone ones! I think you can get large sets, small sets and maybe even individual pens at some stores. Would love to know if they would work along side the Pitt/Staedtler pigment pens.

Awesome haul Connie, you got so many lovely things. Hope you enjoy them all! I love those bigger nib super golden markers, they are awesome - I couldn’t find them on Amazon UK though. Take care ❤

Oh man, it’s so disappointing when you’re excited about a new medium and it doesn’t meet expectations! But I think you’re right to return them… for that kind of money, the product better be EXACTLY what you want it to be. Earlier in the video when you were talking about the cozy coloring, and wanted something cozy but slightly more detailed, what came to my mind was the Annee Day & Matchstick Mouse books. I can’t remember if you have any- but there are lots of cozy scenes indoors while it snows or rains outside. ❤

you can look for some Nia Nora books. I do love cozy critters, cozy haven. And she has some more in the same style

Great video! Thanks for sharing all your fun finds.

I think UA-cam is social media, isn't it? So I think you're definitely supporting artists. People who watch your great videos will buy these books! ❤🇨🇦🙂

You got some great books and supplies to play with! And those molotow pens🥰 i love them so much! 🤗💕

Thank you for grabbing those dual metallic gel pens! I just purchased a set on Amazon 🇨🇦…the Pentel ones are expensive and hard to find sometimes! Have a great long weekend!

Hi Connie!! I always enjoy your videos so much!! love all the deep diving and the why of how things work! thank you for explaining, it is so helpful! I bought Arteza super glitter pens and they worked one time and dried up, never worked again....gel pens are fickle cause I know Coloring with K loves them!!! Take good care!😊

Hi, love your videos. Do you have a link for Shands color changing shiny pen set of 18? Aloha Sharon

Thank you so much for sharing with us your discovery ❤ I've just tried the workable fixative on Amazon paper and then tested Crayola supertips, Derwent inktense pencils, Arteza twimarkers, they all work absolutely amazing ! It's a real game changer as you said :) thank you so much again ❤❤❤

Hi Connie just love your videos thank you for sharing your new colouring books and supplies.. I remember when Hanna went through it the first time it’s horrible I hope she will be ok.. ❤❤❤😊😊😊xxxx

Good video. Doesn’t surprise me about the Pantone markers. Pantone is a standardized set of colors used to match colors across industries. Imagine you are the customer and request a particular Pantone color of something. The person matching it using the marker has created a new color because they did blend! I’m sure they are not suppose to blend ever!

Actually, Ollie's (which is a discount store here in the US) has the Daria song books for about $3,99 each right now...

Great video. So kind of you to show some love for artists. I can’t draw for the life of me. Being a super greenie so refilling pens is optimal. Looked the Krylon spray but $70 from Amazon Australia, doh. Loved your idea. Tysmfs Connie ❤❤

You should do "shop your stash" videos next time

I appreciate all the info! Great to know. Especially about those paint sticks. so fun. But seriously... you are not buying all this on a canadian teachers salary. What is your side hustle?! 😂

Lots of info in this video. Nice stack of books. I ordered Sagen from Indigo. Can’t wait for it to arrive. Thanks for sharing 🐞🇨🇦

fascinating. When i googled her, it said she died. I didn't realize she was still alive.

Can u please help me find where to purchase the new colors for Staedtler pigment brush pens

Hi Connie, sorry if I distressed you with my health issues ; really sorry as I really don’t want to bother you or anyone with my probs (as, depression has been with me for a bit now ). - still not easy to cope with at anytime … Thanks for responding to me … I appreciate your concern 🌻🦋💖🌸

Loved your video as always! Have you ever tried Evazar London colouring pencils, just when I heard you mention you order stuff from Amazon uk, I believe the 130 set is only available there and so I’m struggling to find many reviews. I really like them! They come in a case etc, go on sale regularly, I paid £24 for my set :)

I'm watching the part about the more simple colouring books. Gabi Wolf has one, I think it is called Tiny Town. It's less detailed than the Mini Mania ones, but not super simple.

Colouring Heaven has a new full size Christmas Colouring Book in Walmart now. Guilty of enabling. Oops. Love the haul and insights on the products you have used, so fun to hear some of the product differences from county to country. Did you see the video where the Chemistry teacher taught her class how to carve a pumpkin with chemicals, so neat to incorporate holiday event with a learning experience. Thank you for sharing your time and talents.

You can stop looking for Sorcieres and the Seasons postcard book. I am sending them to you as a gift from me and letting you know so you don’t buy them before the mail from Norway reaches the forests of Canada. I love your channel! I have used pitt pens for years, but have learned so much from you, so Thank you! Your books will hopefully be shipped as soon as I know where to send them (have not looked up your info here on UA-cam yet) Hope this is some good news in a rather rough week 🙂

A smashing haul, thank you for sharing 🥰
