Hello friends! This video is kinda old now, but it was brought to my attention that the inks included in this box/video are technically a Calligraphy Ink not an Acrylic Ink like I stated in the video, this is description from the Roher & Klingner website: "Rohrers pigmented calligraphy ink is produced with modern raw materials, namely acrylic resin and highly pigmented colorants." Regardless, the techniques I talk about still apply!
as one who has done the online classes with my children through various avenues, I will agree with you! The amount of assignments and work expected of my children who were only in pre k and kindergarten at the time, and again we attempted this in first and kindergarten but anyways it was just unreal the expectations set for completion each day for such small children. Going to school never returned them with as much of an expectation of completing daily works/homework. just wanted to throw out an agreement from personal experience and relay my sympathy. Hang in there! (not to sound like a conspiracy quack but in all my experiences it really felt as though it was almost a constant intentional deterrent from schooling children at home.... and now in this current situation we're all in that boat experiencing those unrealistic school work loads. maybe people realizing this will spur some change. Good luck! )
@@victoriacg9184 But they will return in June! I think is what the website said, hopefully I will have the $115 dollars available to purchase it by then :D
I actually debated getting one of these when she announced and held back, I have all the regrets! Thankfully she is restocking them this month. Thanks for another inspiring video, you are so awesome!
Ahhhhh the painting looks amazing! I usually work in a more muted, earthy palette so it's cool to see how other artists achieve such clean colors! Also, your mermaid looks like she up to something lol
Ugh.. My favorite part of every video Heikala made is when she is removing the masking fluid using the other tip of the brush without any damages to the paper.. So satisfying..
This was an absolute joy to watch, the music and your attention to details blended so well. Watching you paint the character to life to an acoustic song cured my insomnia.
I always enjoy watercolor videos because they’re mesmerizing, but I usually don’t understand a thing. But somehow watching your process made some sense to me. Which is pleasant.
Oh my god. You worded it as best as I could understand it. With a clean wet brush, soften the edges of the paint blob!!! That’s how I’ve needed to do it!
I'm so in love with the colors you used, my goodness!! When I first saw you put that blue shade on the bottom, I was so impressed. These paints have gorgeous vibrancy
This will be my first year doing mermay and it came exactly when I needed it. I haven't drawn in a week or so. I'll try to make it through the month, but it probably won't happen.
This may be one of my favourite pieces of yours! Your glazing technique was just fantastic and the water came out looking so good, not to mention how beautiful the mermaid looks 😭 I love your style so much ❤❤❤
this is so beautiful, it makes me want to get it tattooed on my body. The saturation and overall vibrancy of this work makes me honestly just mesmerized.
If you struggle to get the adhesive off the edges of the paper you can always run a black brush marker along the edge. I'm mainly thinking of the brush marker Faber-Castell makes, you'd have to be super careful.
This piece turned out so nice and what an awesome art box! When you went in with those white highlights for the water and such... the piece just like came to life it's so beautiful, nice job and thanks so much again for sharing.
This is gorgeous, I always draw while I watch other people draw. It creates like a sense of having someone there with me while having inspiration and I’ll definitely visit your channel and this video again
Great video. Love the piece you made with the supplies very vibrant. I love Heikala! I purchased the inks from germany a couple months ago but have yet to use them....this is encouraging me to get them out and play with them sooner rather than later!
I find using ink over watercolor paper very similar to using hot pressed watercolor paper. Is very difficult to lift the color from that paper, and its very smooth and satinated. I find myself using the wet&wet technique on that paper as you did here with the inks! Maybe I should try using ink in the future, because I like the effect they have. Thanks for the vid!
This is beautiful! The scales look especially incredible! You can really tell you took your time on this piece and put so much care and attention into it.
ALRB❤ so mermay is an art challenge that starts in may! since it’s 2020, there is a new prompt for the month! there is a calendar full of things that your supposed to put in while drawing a mermaid! if you go on instagram and search up #mermay2020, you’ll get the prompt! you have to keep consistently drawing mermaids that fit the prompt for that day! it’s a lot of fun, but it’s hard keeping up with it :/
nice process explanation :) curious though why use coloured pencils instead of straight up graphite if you're going to just ink immediately before painting? [ Also, am curious how you find SW CP paper for watercolour - I find that there is a subtle dulling down of colours, but I love their hot press papers ]
This is absolutely gorgeous ..You explained the journey throughout the painting perfectly ,and the end result is spectacular..It’s great you explained the layers as not all artists do ,and when your a beginner it’s a bit like magic ,and you don’t really understand that..I know but it’s great you added why you have vibrant colours etc 😀

Not sure if you’ll see this message, but are they the same as india inks? Thanks for all your beautiful, inspiring videos xox
which other inks do y0ou use for painting? i cant find this brand in my country :c
this is a good example on how to take inspiration from other people's art without copying it
And also crediting them.
Me: wants to participate in mermay
Also me: online classes give us more work than when we were in school and imma fail.
Awww thats a bummer! Education first tho!
I know right, I get so much more work now than before
Glamouroki ong 😭

@@koniginwolf6 same, i feel like online school is much more homework heavy rather than teaching heavy unfortunately
This turned out INCREDIBLE! It makes me want to get the art box and try inks!
Thank you so so much!
They are sold out 😭
@@victoriacg9184 But they will return in June! I think is what the website said, hopefully I will have the $115 dollars available to purchase it by then :D

They sell out really fast, I hope you're able to snag one! Thank you!
The tail on the Mermaid and the scales! You gave me chills!! I love seeing you make acrylic art!!! Also its my moms b-day! Your amazing!!
Thanks so much, and happy bday to your mom!
@@imawonder thanks she really appreciates the love!!
Ahhhhh the painting looks amazing! I usually work in a more muted, earthy palette so it's cool to see how other artists achieve such clean colors! Also, your mermaid looks like she up to something lol
Thank you so much!! She definitely is hehe, veeery mysterious
lol me too

Agreed!
You're not poor at all at explaining. In fact I really enjoyed you talking us through the painting, I found it very beneficial
You should do another video using these inks. They look so nice.
This was an absolute joy to watch, the music and your attention to details blended so well. Watching you paint the character to life to an acoustic song cured my insomnia.
Wow love how you showed the water
wow... I'm so calm after watching this video
The level of patience that must have taken wow. Absolutely beautiful and worth the result.x
Lovely piece 💜💜 great green lily pads and detail on her tail
I always enjoy watercolor videos because they’re mesmerizing, but I usually don’t understand a thing. But somehow watching your process made some sense to me. Which is pleasant.
FAB box. Very thorough presentation and great tips. THANKS!
Most beautiful painting technique I ever seen !
Oh my god. You worded it as best as I could understand it. With a clean wet brush, soften the edges of the paint blob!!! That’s how I’ve needed to do it!
omg kloodwig 🥺 yes i love you guys sm

@@imawonder what prompt list did you used?... I'm interested to know... Or maybe trying to participate in the challenge. 😝
So pretty. The way you shown and explain your process are easy to follow and apply for an amateur watercolor user as I am :)
I like watching videos like this. I'm a lazy artist , but watching stuff like this makes me want to paint again
wooow, this is so beautiful 💖💖💖
Thank you so much!!
This is the best, most complete art box that I've ever seen. I'm mainly a digital artist but now I'm seriously considering buying one because wow
Amazing painting! These colours just work beautifully together ❤️
This will be my first year doing mermay and it came exactly when I needed it. I haven't drawn in a week or so. I'll try to make it through the month, but it probably won't happen.
S.F. Bloomfield are you stalking me?😂😂✨
i know lots of people are doing a couple a week rather than everyday, go at your own pace, there's no hard or fast rules, have fun with it!
This piece is stunning! It's quite different from your regular pieces, but not in a bad way! My eyes can't get enough of this 😔👌🏽
Thank you so much!! Also I love your username hahaha :P
That is one gorgeous art piece!
There was so much in that box 😍 and so helpful that the art tools were in a reusable storage case 😍
Great artwork 😍
This may be one of my favourite pieces of yours! Your glazing technique was just fantastic and the water came out looking so good, not to mention how beautiful the mermaid looks 😭
I love your style so much ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
Love it !! Beautiful as always 😉
Love your drawing 💖💖
this is so beautiful, it makes me want to get it tattooed on my body. The saturation and overall vibrancy of this work makes me honestly just mesmerized.

Love the packaging! So unique
Right!! I'm definitely keeping the box

Soo gooddd
This piece turned out so nice and what an awesome art box! When you went in with those white highlights for the water and such... the piece just like came to life it's so beautiful, nice job and thanks so much again for sharing.
This turned out so pretty! I especially love the detail work on the tail and the lotus flowers.
This is gorgeous, I always draw while I watch other people draw. It creates like a sense of having someone there with me while having inspiration and I’ll definitely visit your channel and this video again

I didn't know about acrylic inks! it looks so neat I really want to give it a try in the future c:
Your control of the brush pen is amazing! I am new and I suck so I can’t use it well
This is beautiful! The scales look especially incredible! You can really tell you took your time on this piece and put so much care and attention into it.
Oooo. Love her
Thanks!!
This turned out super stunning! Great work ^^
me: wanting to participate in mermay
also me: gives up on the 3rd day
Haha I feel that! This might be the only mermaid I end up doing :P
How does Mermay work?
ALRB❤ so mermay is an art challenge that starts in may! since it’s 2020, there is a new prompt for the month! there is a calendar full of things that your supposed to put in while drawing a mermaid! if you go on instagram and search up #mermay2020, you’ll get the prompt! you have to keep consistently drawing mermaids that fit the prompt for that day! it’s a lot of fun, but it’s hard keeping up with it :/
essica j it's been one day 😂😂
Oh... No! I totally forgot about mermay!
This was so relaxing to watch
What a beautiful art 😭💕💕
Beautiful !
Thank you for calming down my anxiety I love u💙💖💓
Marvelous illustration! 👏👏
Thank you so much 😀
nice process explanation :) curious though why use coloured pencils instead of straight up graphite if you're going to just ink immediately before painting? [ Also, am curious how you find SW CP paper for watercolour - I find that there is a subtle dulling down of colours, but I love their hot press papers ]
Yay we love MerMay!
Amazing art work for this month!!!
Wow amazing artwork and it's incredible how you made it look like part of her is underwater
This is absolutely gorgeous ..You explained the journey throughout the painting perfectly ,and the end result is spectacular..It’s great you explained the layers as not all artists do ,and when your a beginner it’s a bit like magic ,and you don’t really understand that..I know but it’s great you added why you have vibrant colours etc 😀
