- Опубліковано 3 лют 2025
- Hi Friends! I have been playing with a box of Arrtx watercolor pencils for several weeks now - I love them! In this video, I’ll share a bit more about the set I've been using, including a demo of how to use them, how they blend, how they look on cold press vs hot press paper, how to properly sharpen them, and more. I think they're fun and beautiful and a great buy. This is a great set, I very much recommend, and I'll share with you why. I hope you find this useful, and enjoy!

Art of painting with watercolor pencils Flowers artwork is pretty🤩🌼🎨🖌✏
Thank you so much, I have so much fun playing with them! I love that they are multi purpose too, and can be used in a variety of ways. Happy playing friend!
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy 🙂💜Happy painting!
Yes , sooo pretty Debbie..I have the Artisto pencils but will get cold press paper as that does look like it works easier..Thanks Debbie, you're the BEST😊
You are very welcome! Happy painting friend! 😊 I use these a lot when I travel, and for shading which Ill share a little video on shading with them too.... Ive gone back to many an old painting and played with them with my watercolor pencils ~ So fun! I figure I have nothing to lose on old paintings sitting here :-)
I love watercolor pencils. Maybe I'll try these at some point. They seem like a nice pencil when wanting to just play around. I always sharpen all my watercolor pencils into empty watercolor pans lol. I paid for those pigments I'm gonna use them 😅 Def hand held sharpener is the way to go for sure, but i cant hold the knife correctly. Beautiful flowers btw.
He he, right? I feelt he same way, im not going to waste anything! They are fun, especially for ease and cleanliness if traveling. What a great idea, sharpening over an empty pan! I dont typically use a knife unless my lead is really low, I loke the sandpaper, it really gets an ultra fine point! Happy fun playing :-)
Thank you for showing several ways to use these. I’ve heard all good reviews on them so far. I ordered some a few weeks ago but still showing aren’t going to be delivered until first week of February. Can’t wait to get mine!
Hi Martina, I spoke with the company and she told me they were out of stock although as of last week had replenished their stock, I hope you get those soon! They are a lot of fun, and I think for the investment worth playing with :-) Have fun friend!
This gave me an idea of what to do with a rooster ink drawing that I did a while ago that has a lot of small detail, feathers etc. I think the pencils and water will be a great way to finish it.
That sounds amazing! I hope you share your finished piece.
Wonderful!
I am so glad you think so! 😊 Watercolor pencils can be a lot of fun, and add some texture, interest and fun affects ~ I especially like going into my old paintings and playing with them Enjoy Susan!
Great instruction, beautiful
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked it! Its how I learned easiest as well. They are so versatile, Happy "penciling" and most of all have fun!
I love my Artxx watercolor pencils, but I just got four Derwent Inktense pencils, so expensive, but wow! They are like butter, so smooth. I understand why people spend so much for them. I have to use up my other pencils first.
Je suis toujours surprise par le nombre de marques chères qu’il y a. Je suis contente que tu en aies trouvé qui te plaisent vraiment~ Je ne pense pas que ce serait dans mon budget, mais elles ont l’air fabuleuses ! Amuse-toi bien, mon amie, bisous xo
This is great. I have watercolor pencils and need to use them. Debbie do you have a secret to get your palette clean. I can never get the watercolor completely out. Even though I clean immediately.
Hi~ IM glad this inspires you to pull them out and play! They can be a lot of fun. The only way I can get the stains, discoloring out of my white ceramic is with a Mr Clean Magic Eraser. It gets any stains right out! amzn.to/4jetWW9
I use mine daily, it works so easily. I hope that helps!
I have a brand new sir of Artisto watercolor pencils but I wish I had seen these first. They look like they are more vibrant.
I have the Artisto as well, and I do love them too. These seem to be just a bit more vibrant. The artisto are wonderful as well though. :-) Have fun with them, make sure and watch my tip on sharpening them, can make a big difference.
Those are awesome Debbie ~ I wonder if they sale individual colors ? ❤
Hi Tina, I have not seen them sold individually. They sure are fun though, and I like being able to pack them with me :-) I had a lot of fun playing with them~ Happy Friday Tina!
@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy , you have a great weekend too ! Be safe out there 🙏🏻
❤
Thank you~ I hope this inspired you to play with your oclor pencils too!
My favorites are museum quality water color pencils but expensive
Wonderful you found your brand that works for you~ I dont use mine enough for the Caran d' Ache at over 100.00 wouldnt be worth it for me.
Have fun Patricia!
Do the colors ‘mix/blend’ if use the sandpaper block to sharpen?
Hi Dottie, Im sorry, can you rephrase that? I think what I hear is if you use multiple pencils on the sandpaper do the colors mix together. You can pull off each sheet of sandpaper after you use it.. That gives you a clean sheet each time. I hope I understood that correctly :-)
That’s what I meant. Thank you.
I wanted to make sure I answered your question correctly. Great question btw. I use different areas on the sand paper, and change it frequently. It works so well!
Thanks, Debbie. You’ve yet to paint something that I don’t like!
I’m so glad you like my work. I love painting with these and have so much fun with them. 😊 Happy painting friend, thank you for being here with me!
