😭😭😭😭😭😭 love you so much Mira!!! ❤️ I’m so grateful for your friendship and support 💕 This was such a great haul! That prismacolor box makes me want to get into colored pencils ahhh
Hi Mira, loved seeing your haul! It’s lovely that you are so mindful of others that not everyone can afford these things, however you shouldn’t feel bad to share, so I’m glad you did, and you don’t need to justify it, even if it wasn’t going to help your business you still halve a right to buy these items 🙂 my three fav supplies currently are gelli gauche (I want to try regular gouache), old book pages, and art glitter glue 😄 have a fab Christmas xxx
Thank you Mira for being mindful about those of us who can't afford very many high quality art supplies or art supplies at all. It really shows you care about your viewers not just the content. I for one am happy with dollar store pencils and printer paper to draw but I enjoy seeing hauls for items to put on a wish list for when I can afford them or for someone to gift me. ❤️🎨🖌️ My too three art supplies are alcohol markers, colored pencil, and fineliner
I think it’s absolutely smart to invest in quality supplies if you’re able to. It’s not flaunting or bragging, this is your career! You will have so much fun with those supplies and equally, we will have fun watching! 😁
You know I'm pretty decently disabled, and I'm pretty sure I've said just how crazy poor I am. I get under 25k a year, for 3 people to live on, and rent eats up over 13k of that, just to make a long story short. I've gotten really good at living minimally and saving so I can get a good art supply here and there when I feel I need it. That said, I believe I fit pretty comfortably in the monetarily disadvantaged camp lol. All that said, I don't feel at all upset, personally, with haul videos. If anything I like to watch them to see when things go on sale so that I can then afford the more expensive and easier to use supplies, or even to see if they're not as awesome in person as the ads make them look. If anything, I wish you did more hauls because I don't have much of a reference for many of the supplies in your wheelhouse that interest me like gouache and stamp making, that I don't already have. I would like to see the decision making that goes behind the supply you end up choosing. We all know the struggle of getting only a few art supplies when in an art store. You either come out with waaaay too much, or you get overwhelmed and leave with nothing because you don't know enough about the kind of supply you want and the brand selection is vast with pros and cons you have no idea exist without doing crazy amounts of research. Well for the poorer of us, we often can feel that second one especially hard because we can't afford to get supplies we really don't like. It's art channels like yours, where you show us you using them and talk about them that helps form at least my decision. So I may often say I'm jealous or envious of you, but I always ALWAYS mean it as a complement. I don't think it's unfair nor that you are doing anything at all wrong, I just wish life had handed me as good of a hand as it had you in that paericular department is all. Anyone who would make you feel any less awesome because you made a life for yourself where you can afford these things aren't mature enough for you to listen to in this. I say that it's a wish that life handed me a better hand, but I don'xt mean that you didn't work very hard to get where you are. I just meant that had I not been disabled, I could have had the opportunity to work as hard as you do. I really hope this makes sense and that you get something out of it. Many of us really care and genuinely don't think of you show8ng what you have as bragging, nor as trying to highlight what some of us don't.
I just want to say no matter what type of video you do I Love to watch you. You are Always kind and serene and Always Always are mindful of your audience and their circumstances. Thank You for just being great. Hugs ❤
Its so nice to see established artist encouraging other artists. I love haul videos as it allows me to experience products i may not be able to get for a while.
Hey Mira, I love your video. You are so inspiring to draw. I especially love your "how to fill your sketchbook" videos. Will you please do more of those kinds of videos?
Not everyone is going to feel this way, but even though I can’t get all the things people I watch have, I live vicariously through them showing off art supplies.
Love that you think of others when other you tubers go crazy on hauls. But when this is your job you deserve to spend whatbyou need to create with. My favorite are coloured pencils and markers. Nothing fancy.
I love art hauls because they get me inspired to create things, and remind me of the supplies I already own. Sometimes they also help me become aware of new supplies that I can get excited for and save for, and so I always get excited to see an art haul! My fav supplies are probably, water soluble graphite pencils, prismacolor colored pencils, and a specific style of pen that just flows nicely, but idk the name. A lot of those really cute Japanese pens (with the like, Totoro or cat paws on the end) are in the style I like and they just flow really nicely and look really nice in the art I do
I loved this video and how sensitive you are to others' feelings when it comes to showing us what you purchased. Thank you for always caring about your viewers! As someone who LOVES watercolors, I am so excited for you to make a video about setting up your palette with your paints and then painting with them!
copic markers, sakura micron pens, still deciding what what brand of watercolors….thanks for sharing your excitement, and also for being sensitive to the reality of different socioeconomic statuses - I appreciate your thoughtfulness.
My Top Three right now are: -Qor watercolor paint -Silver Black Velvet round brushes -Etchr cold press sketchbook Honorable mention to good old mechanical pencils (HB size 0.5)
Opera pink, beautifully bright for flowers or fun imaginary colors for animals. Right now 1) watercolor, 2) alcohol markers, 3) good quality acrylics all can be paired with a great set of fine liners 😍
I make handmade greeting cards, so I love anything that involves cut-up paper, stamps & inks, and embossing! And no, I don’t view your haul videos as bragging. I love living vicariously through you, watching you use the art supplies, giving your opinions on them, and seeing if it’s something that I want to invest in for myself. Watching you bring the craft supplies to life and turn them into artwork is beautiful! 🤩
Top 3: Watercolor Oil Colored pencils Beginner in all 3, got into art about 4 months ago for my mental health and I have really enjoyed how it's changed my life. ❤
I fall into that category of folks who can’t do art hauls. I wish I could just go on a shopping spree at an art store (never even been to one) but I am thankful that I can buy paints at all so it doesn’t make me sad to see other people able to spend money. I just use student grade acrylics (whatever is on sale when I need it), watercolor in tubes is better than in pans in my opinion (again, no specific brand, just whatever I find a good deal on) and lastly, Prisma pencils! Those are the best colored pencils to ever be created! I was lucky to get a set of those some years ago.
I am glad that you are mindful of others when it comes to hauls. There is one youtuber that I follow who is always doing a review of new supplies every few days. Some of it is sponsored, and she has them sent to her by the companies but I would rather see someone using what they've already got instead of showing something new when they had something new only a few days ago, and realistically they don't need all of those supplies. Other folks get subscription boxes and then sell the supplies on because they don't really need what they are sent and again, I would much rather see them creating art with what they have more than once. Having said that, there is nothing wrong with restocking if you are running low on something, or getting something new if you really want to try it out. I recently got the full set of Derwent's graphitint pencils and a set of their drawing pencils which I hope to try once I bought some good quality paper to try them out on. I do like seeing these types of videos too, as long as the hauls aren't too close together because it gives me an idea of what is out there. Professional art supplies aren't always available in the town where I live - we have a discount shop, and a general hobby/craft store, but they don't carry all the professional art supply ranges so these give me an idea of what I might find interesting to try. Favourite art supplies: Watercolours (pans, tubes, pencils, I want to try water soluble crayons and inktense blocks ) Gouache Markers A few years ago, I would have said acrylics, but I've not been using them much lately. I sometime use coloured pencils, but get frustrated with them because good quality ones are expensive and up until now I've only been using budget ones which I hate for many reasons. I use fineliners a lot and they feature a lot in my artwork.
I love hauls! My budget for art supplies is small, so I really love to see hauls where artists show products and try them out. I can get a good sense about every product and save some money when I can see what is not for me. So keep these coming!
Top 3 favourite art supplies: 1. White ultra fine posca paint pen 2. Tombow mono zero mechanical eraser. I stop making art when they run out. So I bought a MASSIVE refill on amazon last time lol. 3. Mechanical lead holder. It has the refillability and eco friendly aspects of a mechanical pencil, with the led size and thicker lines I like from a regular wood pencil. I couldn't decide on my favourites for what I find most fun, so I went instead with the supplies I feel I can't art without.
My top favorite art supply is oil pastels. I am by no means a professional, but I’ve found that oils are super easy to be lose and creative with. I love using oil pastels on black paper and a white colored pencil to start a sketch. Highly recommend trying them out! Love your videos!
Normally my preferred medium is acrylics. I am also in the process of not only getting back into my art journey and making/creating the time to be creative but exploring various mediums. I am currently working on a piece that will be alcohol markers and colored pencils together. I have always just used one or the other in a single piece. But watching you and many other talented artists on youtube in the last year has me branching out feeling inspired and experimental in my art.
About the pencils breaking, Lindsay from frugalcrafter had a tip where you just superglue the bit that breaks off back in and use it like that. I've been doing it ever since and it's basically magic. I don't waste at all anymore!
@@JudeandherPencil problem is, if you use prismacolors, most of them have metallic writing on them and they can set the microwave on fire. Superglue is so quick too. I know long term microwave will reform the whole pencil but I'm bedridden and cant get up to nuke whatever I need when I need and I feel bad asking my hubby and son to microwave my pencils lol. It is an option though, there is also the heating pad methor if you happen to have one.
Every artist comes out of an art store with much more than they planned on. It's the Artist's Law of Nature, lol. I watch your videos to see you create something with your art supplies, so go ahead and splurge! Can't wait to see what you do with the latest goodies. You could also do art with just a blue Bic pen! Doesn't matter to me. My top 3 art supplies: Gouache, colored pencil, acrylic. I splurged and ordered Jazza's Pro Art box so I'm eager to try markers with colored pencils!
Daniel Smith is my favorite brand of watercolor paint. My favorite colors are Moonglow, Cascade Green. Plus!! I love the PrimaTek line since they are made with real minerals and gemstones. Some are sparkly and all the ones I have are granulating which I love yo use for texture. I may not be a good artist, but I LOVE painting galaxies. Enjoy your new paint. Once you use DS you may never use many others. Another tip to save money is to buy the DS watercolor sticks. I chop off chunks to put in my palette and one stick will fill a half pan several times. I also pour my tubes into halfpans because I find I waste less paint this way.
My top three are color pencils, charcoal, and graphite! Although I do also enjoy multiple paint mediums! It's lovely that you care so much about others and our money situations but it is still fun to live vicariously through your purchases.
I love painting with watercolors. I have been using Winsor and Newton watercolors and Cason paper. I am finishing up my Christmas cards now using all these great products. I really enjoyed coming up with many different designs for my cards. Merry Christmas!
I love watching art hauls. I’ve found so many different types of art supplies that way. My top favorite art supplies would be Derwent Graphic pencils, Windsor Newton watercolors and Pigma Micron pens.
I like art supply hauls,esp from artists that I really enjoy watching, who actually USE the supplies. Sometimes I like to get more info before making that investment..these videos help a lot!
My top 3 favorite art supplies are Prisma Colored Pencils, acrylic paints, and Pens. I love the simplicity of a pen but you can take it so far with your imagination! I am starting to dabble in oil paints and pastels, as well as some digital art!
Opera Pink is one of my favourite D.S colors. If you're fond of granulation - I LOVE the primatek line - rhodonite is VERY like Opera pink. Top Three Art Supplies: Schminke Super granulating paints used w/w on a rough block; Daniel Smith's Primatek line and Princeton Aqua Elite brushes which were the first really decent brushes i bought that worked for me. (If they're too long, I just don't have control... as a newbie.)
Top 3 art supplies, in no particular order (ok, I couldn’t decide on just 3, so there are 4) 1- Poscas 🥰 2- Koi watercolor pocket field sketch box 3- Amsterdam acrylic ink 4- giant jelly gouache palette boxes
Watercolor Acrylic paint Soft pastels It’s so fun seeing all those wonderful supplies and knowing you will be taking us along on the journey! Thank you! Happy holidays!
My favourite art supply changes all the time. I've been using polymer clay a lot recently but thinking about acrylic painting, also tried UV resin for the first time... so there's that.
if anyone gets mad at hauls because its not something they can afford then they need to look at themselves and not you. If you can afford it then get it and dont be ashamed of what you worked for. Just because I cant afford things like copicks or expensive oil paints doesnt mean you can enjoy them. The only time its scummy is when people are flashing their money, cars, overpriced clothes and other materialstic stuff like that but even then that can depend on the context and how theyre showing it off.
Hi Mira, happy holidays. With great anticipation, I'm looking forward to seeing how you use these new supplies in 2022. My top three art supplies in order of favorites: 1. Micron fineliners. 2. Gouche 3. Acrylic paints
Top three art supplies 1) 0.5mm mechanical pencil 2) needable eraser 3) uni signo gel pen Im flick between media every 5 mins, but whatever im going, this are the three things i always use.
I love your art supplies, you should never apologise for buying art supplies, you work hard and you deserve it! My favorite top 3 art suplies are: 1. Arches paper, hands down it made so much difference in my art. If anything you should never compromise in good quality paper. 2. Schmincke and daniel smith watercolor. I love both brands. The opera pink is beautiful by the way! 3. Faber castell polychromos pencils 4. Many many maaaany more art suplies, I love art supplies! I don’t buy shoes or cloth much…. I buy art supplies, it gives me more joy hihi!
Always love to watch your videos. You have an infectious personality. Well, I have done a lot of variety things. Just did the scrapbook album for my future grandson which he will be here in two months. I took out some of memory papers from the memory book into scrapbook album and it was so much fun to make. I haven’t made any scrapbook albums in a very long time because I turned my focus on using colored pencils, watercolor paint and acrylic paint a lot. I think that they are my favorite art supplies for now. Looking forward to see your next video.
I love your videos. They really inspire me and I try something new. My favourite art supplies at the moment (it changes now and then according to my mood): 1. Watercolours (especially handmade ones) 2. Good old pencils 3. Ink (doesn't matter if it's with a fountain or dip pen) 4. New love : Gouache
My top 3 favorites are 1. Watercolors (my first love) 2. Graphite pencils 3. Watercolor brushes OMG! Mira I'm so excited for your upcoming watercolor contents. 💗
Lately my favorite mediums have been watercolor, acrylic & gel pens. I do a lot of letter art so those have been my go to. I do mix media art. So I switch between mediums depending on the concept I'm going for.
Faber castle is my absolute favorite brand I have their polychromose set, graphite set, a small water color pencil set which is wonderful and a small Pitt pastel set I'm still learning with. Their products are just such great quality. Guache has definitely become a favorite medium but I'm still looking for a quality product that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. But the arteza guache is really great for sketchbooks. And acrylic was my gate way supply to art and it just holds a special place in my heart. I'm starting to experiment with liquitex heavy body acrylics. Thanks for the video it was a joy to watch!
Loved the video Mira! And I LOVED listening to you talk about Chloe!! You both talk about each other with so much love and compassion!! Favorite 3 Art Supplies 1: watercolor brush pens/watercolor inks (got a set of Arteza watercolor brushes and WOW game changer and Dr Ph Martins inks!!!) 2: colored pencils 3: mica powders (with resin)
Fun supplies! My Prismacolor pencils don’t break now that I use a Kum manual sharpener. There’s always the chance of having damaged pencils of course. I read that microwaving them fixes broken cores but I haven’t tried it. I mostly use Prismacolor pencils, acrylics, and Gelatos for creative Bible journaling. I would like to get back into watercolors soon. I like drawing and painting wild birds, so I’d like to get better. I have my customized watercolor palette with several brands of tube paints. Have fun with your new supplies!
My top 3 art supplies 1 QoR watercolors 2 Arches cold press 140lb 100% cotton paper 3 is a tie between my twist erase pentel mechanical pencil and my unibal vision needle pen
I love your videos so much. They always make me happy even if I’ve had a really hard or stressful day. Thank you for being an amazing person! My top 3 favourite art supplies are easily 1. Sketching pencils (grey/black) 2. Watercolour paint (metallic and normal) 3. Acrylic paint
Loving watching all your process videos! I learn a lot from them even when they are chill and relaxed. I have too many favorite supplies but I’m gonna list 3: water color pencils!! And I recently found watercolor brush markers. And my go to is craft acrylic for its flexibility and color & effects ranges. I mean I love me some high quality acrylics and watercolor paints, but I do so much crafting and home decor , gifts and art that the versatility and cheapness of the craft paint has been my go to.
my fave art supplies are a pencil, paper and eraser that's all you really need to get drawing :D especially when like me your just a beginner really :)
As someone who’s not in the position to buy stuff anymore, I still love art hauls! At the moment I’m dabbling most in watercolor paint and watersoluble crayons and stuff so the watercolor paints were the most exciting for me. I’d love to try out hotpressed paper but only have coldpressed. Mostly fine but 1 rough block as well. I wish I was able to buy the Prismacolors but they’re expensive in Europe. Daniel Smith is also expensive but I’ve got the halfpan metal tin set for my birthday, my most loved and used art treasure supply 💜
I can only pick three? 😜 I enjoy so many, haha- pencil art is a great love- definitely a prisma fan, and definitely agree with the breaking being frustrating! But my favorite pencil art is graphite- and the new faber castel Matt pencils are 🤩! 14b! And very little shine :) Resin is another... you can just do so much with it! Rockstar resin is currently my go to for that . Merry Christmas Mira, can’t wait to see what you make with your haul of inspo❤️
My top 3 favorite art supplies...? Hummm... I haven't used a TON of different art supplies. But I'm blessed to have been able to try more than I thought I would ever be able to. I've never used oil or gouache paints which I feel could be a favorite if I were to ever use them. The art supplies I've tried are watercolor paints, colored pencils including Prismacolors (which if you've ever only used Crayola or something like that, if you can afford the $12 or so to buy the 12 pack of Prismacolors, you will not regret it! They are great!), alcohol markers including Ohuhu (again, way better than other cheaper brands) and acrylic paints, which I use Folk Art matte acrylics. They are pretty inexpensive but they aren't terrible when it comes to quality. I know that Ace of Clay here on UA-cam, a professional clay sculptor, only uses Folk Art matte acrylics when painting his sculptures. And then charcoal and gel pens. My favorite of all these are for sure the Ohuhu alcohol markers, acrylic paints, and then a tie between watercolors and Prismacolor colored pencils. That was a really long, round-about way to say what my favorite art supplies are. Haha 😂
I just love art haul videos! My favorite art mediums to use are pan pastels, W&N oil paint, and Daniel Smith watercolors 😀 I actually want to buy a new set of prismacolors to use in my adult coloring books
I have so many favorites. And BTW, I will say if you find that the Princeton Elite brushes don't make you 100% happy when doing watercolor, then try the Neptunes. I was blindly using brushes the other day (by size and not brand) with my new Neptunes in my cup, painting along and went, gee, this really feels right. The water control was great, the brush released paint wonderfully and I went, gosh what brush am I using, because I have so many brown brushes. And it was one of my new set of Neptunes. My Elites really don't get much use because they aren't thirsty brushes. I reserve them for gouache. Those who say that brushes are least important really haven't stopped to think about it, honestly. I am a Prismacolor girl although I decided I needed a small set of the Polychromos, just to say I had one. I love my Caran D'ache Neocolor II's and I also love oil pastels for that color crayon feeling. But yeah, the DS watercolor are my huge weakness. I literally have enough paints now that I can paint the rest of my life without buying more. I'm a late in life rookie and I'm crazy to buy the high end materials, but even when you do simple things, the frustration level is really low with the good stuff.
Hmm..top 3 choices…paper ..I love bookbinding and I’m all about paper, all kinds, textures..love it all. Next is watercolor, and that is tied with pastels..Derwent pastel pencils were also my gateway, so I’m looking forward to seeing how those Faber Castell ones turn out.
What a tease. You now owe it to us for some hours long art videos ;))) just kidding. Mine are. Pencil crayons. Pens. And acrylics. I think :) for now 💖💖💖❤️💚❤️💚❤️
Hello Mira your videos are always amazing. My favorite 3 art supplies that I own are prismacolor color erase, my Ohuhu markers, and my Faber castel water color pencils. These are art supplies I use all the time and while I really want to expand my horizons with art supplies I always come back to those three because I love the way the colors look on paper and I find them a lot easier to use then just paint. Anyways I can't wait to see more videos from you.
Here are my top 3 art supplies: - Acrylics, I gained confidence with it, so it'll always be my number 1. - Watercolors, I proved myself wrong using it while being convinced that I couldn't make cute art with it, damn I was so wrong!. - fineliners, expecially bullet journaling with it! Have a wonderful holiday season, Mira ❤
😭😭😭😭😭😭 love you so much Mira!!! ❤️ I’m so grateful for your friendship and support 💕
This was such a great haul! That prismacolor box makes me want to get into colored pencils ahhh
Love you too!! I’m so incredibly proud of you! 🙌🏼💜

Opera pink, beautifully bright for flowers or fun imaginary colors for animals.
Right now 1) watercolor, 2) alcohol markers, 3) good quality acrylics all can be paired with a great set of fine liners 😍
You are so sweet Mira! Thinking of others. I love your videos! Thank you for your kind words.
Mira is such a positive person and her videos make me so happy!

Professional art supplies aren't always available in the town where I live - we have a discount shop, and a general hobby/craft store, but they don't carry all the professional art supply ranges so these give me an idea of what I might find interesting to try.
Favourite art supplies:
Watercolours (pans, tubes, pencils, I want to try water soluble crayons and inktense blocks )
Gouache
Markers
A few years ago, I would have said acrylics, but I've not been using them much lately.
I sometime use coloured pencils, but get frustrated with them because good quality ones are expensive and up until now I've only been using budget ones which I hate for many reasons. I use fineliners a lot and they feature a lot in my artwork.
I love hauls! My budget for art supplies is small, so I really love to see hauls where artists show products and try them out. I can get a good sense about every product and save some money when I can see what is not for me. So keep these coming!
Acrylic paint, alcohol markers, and posca pens are probably my top favorite art supplise.
My eyes have been like this 😃 the whole time! MAN! How I would love to come sit with you and just dabble in all these art supplies!
Top 3 favourite art supplies:
1. White ultra fine posca paint pen
2. Tombow mono zero mechanical eraser. I stop making art when they run out. So I bought a MASSIVE refill on amazon last time lol.
3. Mechanical lead holder. It has the refillability and eco friendly aspects of a mechanical pencil, with the led size and thicker lines I like from a regular wood pencil.
I couldn't decide on my favourites for what I find most fun, so I went instead with the supplies I feel I can't art without.
You are going to LOVE those watercolours.
I would love to see you swatch that huge set of Prismacolors and talk about which hues are your favorite!
My top favorite art supply is oil pastels. I am by no means a professional, but I’ve found that oils are super easy to be lose and creative with. I love using oil pastels on black paper and a white colored pencil to start a sketch. Highly recommend trying them out! Love your videos!
I loved your disclaimer for those of us without a lot of money. ❤
Normally my preferred medium is acrylics. I am also in the process of not only getting back into my art journey and making/creating the time to be creative but exploring various mediums. I am currently working on a piece that will be alcohol markers and colored pencils together. I have always just used one or the other in a single piece. But watching you and many other talented artists on youtube in the last year has me branching out feeling inspired and experimental in my art.
I love acrylic paint, colored pencils, and stickers (I love decorating my planner)!
I’m a little late but that’s okay.
My top three favorite art supplies are:
•graphite drawing pencils
•watercolor
•color pencils
My top three favorite art supplies are watercolors, Colored Pencils, and Acrylic Paint!!
About the pencils breaking, Lindsay from frugalcrafter had a tip where you just superglue the bit that breaks off back in and use it like that. I've been doing it ever since and it's basically magic. I don't waste at all anymore!
You can also microwave for 5 seconds (never more, trust me!) and DONT EVER DROP your pencils, ever!!!😂🙌
@@JudeandherPencil problem is, if you use prismacolors, most of them have metallic writing on them and they can set the microwave on fire. Superglue is so quick too. I know long term microwave will reform the whole pencil but I'm bedridden and cant get up to nuke whatever I need when I need and I feel bad asking my hubby and son to microwave my pencils lol. It is an option though, there is also the heating pad methor if you happen to have one.
Lindsay is AMAZING!! 💖💖💖
@@TuxieTude absolutely!
@@paranoiarpincess ☺️
Every artist comes out of an art store with much more than they planned on. It's the Artist's Law of Nature, lol.
I watch your videos to see you create something with your art supplies, so go ahead and splurge! Can't wait to see what you do with the latest goodies. You could also do art with just a blue Bic pen! Doesn't matter to me.
My top 3 art supplies: Gouache, colored pencil, acrylic. I splurged and ordered Jazza's Pro Art box so I'm eager to try markers with colored pencils!
Daniel Smith is my favorite brand of watercolor paint. My favorite colors are Moonglow, Cascade Green. Plus!! I love the PrimaTek line since they are made with real minerals and gemstones. Some are sparkly and all the ones I have are granulating which I love yo use for texture. I may not be a good artist, but I LOVE painting galaxies. Enjoy your new paint. Once you use DS you may never use many others. Another tip to save money is to buy the DS watercolor sticks. I chop off chunks to put in my palette and one stick will fill a half pan several times. I also pour my tubes into halfpans because I find I waste less paint this way.
My top three are color pencils, charcoal, and graphite! Although I do also enjoy multiple paint mediums! It's lovely that you care so much about others and our money situations but it is still fun to live vicariously through your purchases.
You are so kind. I wish we could be friends. Don’t worry about hurting our feelings with buying stuff on your hauls! ❤❤
You will LOVE the opera pink! It's one of my faves.
I love painting with watercolors. I have been using Winsor and Newton watercolors and Cason paper. I am finishing up my Christmas cards now using all these great products. I really enjoyed coming up with many different designs for my cards. Merry Christmas!
I love watching art hauls. I’ve found so many different types of art supplies that way. My top favorite art supplies would be Derwent Graphic pencils, Windsor Newton watercolors and Pigma Micron pens.
I like art supply hauls,esp from artists that I really enjoy watching, who actually USE the supplies. Sometimes I like to get more info before making that investment..these videos help a lot!
My top 3 favorite art supplies are Prisma Colored Pencils, acrylic paints, and Pens. I love the simplicity of a pen but you can take it so far with your imagination! I am starting to dabble in oil paints and pastels, as well as some digital art!
Mira this was so fun! I love all the things you got, and I can’t wait for you to build your new pallet❤️🖌
Opera Pink is one of my favourite D.S colors. If you're fond of granulation - I LOVE the primatek line - rhodonite is VERY like Opera pink.
Top Three Art Supplies: Schminke Super granulating paints used w/w on a rough block; Daniel Smith's Primatek line and Princeton Aqua Elite brushes which were the first really decent brushes i bought that worked for me. (If they're too long, I just don't have control... as a newbie.)
My top three art supplies:
- Gelly Gauche (my all time fave!)
-Posca Paint Markers
- Arteza Water Color Paper
Top 3 art supplies, in no particular order (ok, I couldn’t decide on just 3, so there are 4)
1- Poscas 🥰
2- Koi watercolor pocket field sketch box
3- Amsterdam acrylic ink
4- giant jelly gouache palette boxes
Top 3 supplies. Paint Markers, watercolour and acrylic
Nice haul! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more watercolor videos.
my top three would be
Watercolor
Acrylic paint
Soft pastels
It’s so fun seeing all those wonderful supplies and knowing you will be taking us along on the journey! Thank you!
Happy holidays!
My favourite art supply changes all the time. I've been using polymer clay a lot recently but thinking about acrylic painting, also tried UV resin for the first time... so there's that.
if anyone gets mad at hauls because its not something they can afford then they need to look at themselves and not you. If you can afford it then get it and dont be ashamed of what you worked for. Just because I cant afford things like copicks or expensive oil paints doesnt mean you can enjoy them. The only time its scummy is when people are flashing their money, cars, overpriced clothes and other materialstic stuff like that but even then that can depend on the context and how theyre showing it off.
Oh you'll love the Daniel Smith paints; their Opera Pink is a real stunner! Current top three supplies: watercolours, coloured pencils and ink. ❤️
Hi Mira, happy holidays. With great anticipation, I'm looking forward to seeing how you use these new supplies in 2022.

Always love to watch your videos. You have an infectious personality. Well, I have done a lot of variety things. Just did the scrapbook album for my future grandson which he will be here in two months. I took out some of memory papers from the memory book into scrapbook album and it was so much fun to make. I haven’t made any scrapbook albums in a very long time because I turned my focus on using colored pencils, watercolor paint and acrylic paint a lot. I think that they are my favorite art supplies for now. Looking forward to see your next video.
I love your videos. They really inspire me and I try something new.
My favourite art supplies at the moment (it changes now and then according to my mood):
1. Watercolours (especially handmade ones)
2. Good old pencils
3. Ink (doesn't matter if it's with a fountain or dip pen)
4. New love : Gouache

OMG! Mira I'm so excited for your upcoming watercolor contents. 💗
Lately my favorite mediums have been watercolor, acrylic & gel pens. I do a lot of letter art so those have been my go to. I do mix media art. So I switch between mediums depending on the concept I'm going for.
Yeah finally I made it in time to watch it in the first minute :) Art hauls art te best, but inside the store shopping is way better :)
Congrats on being so early, Liesbeth!
I'd say my top three favorite art supplies are alcohol based markers, watercolors, and acrylics
Oil paints for sure acrylics and colored pencils thank you for your wonderful art content it really inspires me keep up the good work ❤
MY FAVOURITE TOP 3 ARE OILS, ACRYLICS, AND GRAPHITE!!
Nice quality art supply haul video Mira!
Daniel Smith water color pallets - Sennelier Oil Pastels - Polychromos colored pencils
Faber castle is my absolute favorite brand I have their polychromose set, graphite set, a small water color pencil set which is wonderful and a small Pitt pastel set I'm still learning with. Their products are just such great quality. Guache has definitely become a favorite medium but I'm still looking for a quality product that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. But the arteza guache is really great for sketchbooks. And acrylic was my gate way supply to art and it just holds a special place in my heart. I'm starting to experiment with liquitex heavy body acrylics. Thanks for the video it was a joy to watch!
My top 3:
1. Gouache
2. Pencils
3. Watercolour
Loved the video Mira! And I LOVED listening to you talk about Chloe!! You both talk about each other with so much love and compassion!!
Favorite 3 Art Supplies
1: watercolor brush pens/watercolor inks (got a set of Arteza watercolor brushes and WOW game changer and Dr Ph Martins inks!!!)
2: colored pencils
3: mica powders (with resin)
Fun supplies! My Prismacolor pencils don’t break now that I use a Kum manual sharpener. There’s always the chance of having damaged pencils of course. I read that microwaving them fixes broken cores but I haven’t tried it. I mostly use Prismacolor pencils, acrylics, and Gelatos for creative Bible journaling. I would like to get back into watercolors soon. I like drawing and painting wild birds, so I’d like to get better. I have my customized watercolor palette with several brands of tube paints. Have fun with your new supplies!
My top 3 art supplies
1 QoR watercolors
2 Arches cold press 140lb 100% cotton paper
3 is a tie between my twist erase pentel mechanical pencil and my unibal vision needle pen
I love your videos so much. They always make me happy even if I’ve had a really hard or stressful day. Thank you for being an amazing person!
My top 3 favourite art supplies are easily
1. Sketching pencils (grey/black)
2. Watercolour paint (metallic and normal)
3. Acrylic paint
Soooo cool! I can't wait to see you try these products in your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your haul with us! 🥰
My top 3 art supplies:
-Acrylics
-Alcohol markers
-watercolors
Colored pencils , gouache and digital art ☺️ thanks for sharing this haul. Hope you have fun with testing all the goods.
Loving watching all your process videos! I learn a lot from them even when they are chill and relaxed. I have too many favorite supplies but I’m gonna list 3: water color pencils!! And I recently found watercolor brush markers. And my go to is craft acrylic for its flexibility and color & effects ranges. I mean I love me some high quality acrylics and watercolor paints, but I do so much crafting and home decor , gifts and art that the versatility and cheapness of the craft paint has been my go to.
My favorite art supplies are acrylic paint, erasers, and a pencil.
My top 3 favorites are polymer clay first then watercolor and colored pencil! I just love sculpting ❤️
You are the best! Thank you for considering that everyone has different artistic and financial abilities and that it's all about the art! XO! 💕
My top 3 are…
1. Colored pencils
2. Acrylic paints
3. Just pure pencil sketches
Top: Colored pencils, especially on grey toned paper or tan paper
Then: Graphite
Lastly: acrylic paint
my fave art supplies are a pencil, paper and eraser that's all you really need to get drawing :D especially when like me your just a beginner really :)
As someone who’s not in the position to buy stuff anymore, I still love art hauls! At the moment I’m dabbling most in watercolor paint and watersoluble crayons and stuff so the watercolor paints were the most exciting for me. I’d love to try out hotpressed paper but only have coldpressed. Mostly fine but 1 rough block as well. I wish I was able to buy the Prismacolors but they’re expensive in Europe. Daniel Smith is also expensive but I’ve got the halfpan metal tin set for my birthday, my most loved and used art treasure supply 💜
I can only pick three? 😜 I enjoy so many, haha- pencil art is a great love- definitely a prisma fan, and definitely agree with the breaking being frustrating! But my favorite pencil art is graphite- and the new faber castel Matt pencils are 🤩! 14b! And very little shine :) Resin is another... you can just do so much with it! Rockstar resin is currently my go to for that . Merry Christmas Mira, can’t wait to see what you make with your haul of inspo❤️
I love to use watercolor and ya, I’m younger but I really want to start my art journey. You’re videos have just inspired me so much to continue!
I love my spectrum noir classique markers,arteza pencils and my acrylic paints
My top 3 favorite art supplies...? Hummm... I haven't used a TON of different art supplies. But I'm blessed to have been able to try more than I thought I would ever be able to. I've never used oil or gouache paints which I feel could be a favorite if I were to ever use them. The art supplies I've tried are watercolor paints, colored pencils including Prismacolors (which if you've ever only used Crayola or something like that, if you can afford the $12 or so to buy the 12 pack of Prismacolors, you will not regret it! They are great!), alcohol markers including Ohuhu (again, way better than other cheaper brands) and acrylic paints, which I use Folk Art matte acrylics. They are pretty inexpensive but they aren't terrible when it comes to quality. I know that Ace of Clay here on UA-cam, a professional clay sculptor, only uses Folk Art matte acrylics when painting his sculptures. And then charcoal and gel pens. My favorite of all these are for sure the Ohuhu alcohol markers, acrylic paints, and then a tie between watercolors and Prismacolor colored pencils. That was a really long, round-about way to say what my favorite art supplies are. Haha 😂
I just love art haul videos! My favorite art mediums to use are pan pastels, W&N oil paint, and Daniel Smith watercolors 😀 I actually want to buy a new set of prismacolors to use in my adult coloring books
I have so many favorites. And BTW, I will say if you find that the Princeton Elite brushes don't make you 100% happy when doing watercolor, then try the Neptunes. I was blindly using brushes the other day (by size and not brand) with my new Neptunes in my cup, painting along and went, gee, this really feels right. The water control was great, the brush released paint wonderfully and I went, gosh what brush am I using, because I have so many brown brushes. And it was one of my new set of Neptunes. My Elites really don't get much use because they aren't thirsty brushes. I reserve them for gouache. Those who say that brushes are least important really haven't stopped to think about it, honestly. I am a Prismacolor girl although I decided I needed a small set of the Polychromos, just to say I had one. I love my Caran D'ache Neocolor II's and I also love oil pastels for that color crayon feeling. But yeah, the DS watercolor are my huge weakness. I literally have enough paints now that I can paint the rest of my life without buying more. I'm a late in life rookie and I'm crazy to buy the high end materials, but even when you do simple things, the frustration level is really low with the good stuff.
Hmm..top 3 choices…paper ..I love bookbinding and I’m all about paper, all kinds, textures..love it all. Next is watercolor, and that is tied with pastels..Derwent pastel pencils were also my gateway, so I’m looking forward to seeing how those Faber Castell ones turn out.
What a tease. You now owe it to us for some hours long art videos ;))) just kidding. Mine are. Pencil crayons. Pens. And acrylics. I think :) for now 💖💖💖❤️💚❤️💚❤️
I loved your art supplies haul video 💕
My top three are: watercolor (my first love), acrylic and black fineliner and calligraphy pens
Hello Mira your videos are always amazing. My favorite 3 art supplies that I own are prismacolor color erase, my Ohuhu markers, and my Faber castel water color pencils. These are art supplies I use all the time and while I really want to expand my horizons with art supplies I always come back to those three because I love the way the colors look on paper and I find them a lot easier to use then just paint. Anyways I can't wait to see more videos from you.
Here are my top 3 art supplies:
- Acrylics, I gained confidence with it, so it'll always be my number 1.
- Watercolors, I proved myself wrong using it while being convinced that I couldn't make cute art with it, damn I was so wrong!.
- fineliners, expecially bullet journaling with it!
Have a wonderful holiday season, Mira ❤
