Loving going back into the archives and watching your old videos. It’s so fun to see you first discovering supplies that I see you use all the time now (like Poscas). And really neat to see how you’ve developed your multi-media and layering techniques over the past couple of years… so encouraging!!
And new favorite Sandi quote: “I’m really attracted to weeds.” 😂
So thankful to have a library of Sandi to go back and watch anytime I need a pick-me-up! Thanks for your generosity and hard work. ❤
Yes, so much of my art journey is documented here which is really fun and neat to have this archive
You're such breath of fresh air Sandi. By far my fave person on YT. Loved your sketch btw.
Awe - goodness - thank you Emma-Lee!
My fave acrylic pen is the Molotow brand in the color lobster. I would recommend 👌
What a fabulous name too!
Another vote for Molotow! I think you’ll enjoy them, I think the bigger sizes have some super chunky nibs and I’ve had better luck with them than with my Poscas in terms of longevity (I’m the worst for ruining markers by working on top of other stuff, but my Molotows seem to stand up to the abuse a bit better and also you can buy replacement nibs)
@@iris-impressions-art Additionally, I just found an old pencil bag from 9 or 10 years ago with an opened and used Lobster Molotow and... it was a good as day 1! I could not believe it! Been doodling with it all week long!
Acrylic paint (even matte acrylic) is pretty slick. Both Neocolors and oil pastels don't grab well to its slippery surface. I'd recommend adding a layer of clear gesso (clear gesso is AMAZING) before adding them on top of acrylics. The gesso texture will give them something to grab on to without much impact to the paint layers below.
Great tip Amanda!
Clear gesso... there's clear gesso?
@@claremarley9181 Yes! The one that I have is by Liquitex, but I'm sure other brands make it too.
you make me very happy and warm.
The best relaxing ever painting
I've been trying to use up the supplies that I have & not buy any more so I'm going to very much enjoy watching you open up new stuff! 😍😍😍
I hope this doesn’t tempt you - I’ve been feeling guilty about that
That's my goal too. But just bought 4 new art items hahahaha dang it
M
Love the lessons so much
Fun goodies you got there. I love a square sketchbook, but since they weren't very common a while back I had to make my own. I don't have Instagram, but I'm glad they've made squares popular lol.
I haven't bought any Caran D'ache colored pencils because I'll want them all and that's dangerous.
Thanks for sharing your haul. Have a good weekend!
Thank you! Hope you have a good weekend as well!
Hi Sandi personality plus. Love your demo. 👍👍xxx
Thank you 🤗
That was almost as much fun as if it had been my art haul!😁
Glad to hear that Susan!!
Great info as always
You don’t know how much your videos have helped me get out of my painting slump and I appreciate your reviews on your art supply purchases. Thanks so much Sandi! You’re the best!!!!
So glad to hear that Sandy!
Feels like I’m right there with you, sharing your joy lol. Was so excited to see you pull these items out of the box as I’ve been interested in a few of them for a lil bit. Happy Friday Sandi. Glad to hear Grady is ok 😊
Hope it helped you know if you should purchase or not
This is the first video of yours I’ve ever seen. Guess it just popped up In my suggested. Lucky me!
🤗🤗🤗
What I love to do and can add great effects is using water after making your marks with a watercolor brush!
Ok my lovely lady, I started watching you because of a art supply haul, and found you bothe informative and entertaining at the same time, and have watched you ever since. I'm just over 2mins into this video and you are adding joy to my world... ok, so back to the vid.
Awe - Clare - that’s so sweet!
So sad the Montana pens didn't work out. I'd love some giant paint markers. Oh well. Good luck with you new smalk sketchbooks. I keep one with me all the time too. I love grabbing for it first thing in the morning to make notes or sketches of the thoughts that roll around in my head as I'm fading in and out just before I actually wake up. I get some great painting inspirations.
I do the same as I’m falling asleep!
I use those acrylic marker on small piece of canvas from canvas pads. Lots of fun!
Yes, so fun!
Another fab video, I love that you spend time trying stuff out....there are some UA-camrs that do hauls and well that's it!! I love my Posca pens too, they are fab and I need to taken them for a proper sketch ^_^ the white sketchbook you have, I've just ordered myself that one in another colour, ,ol!! & I can't wait to get out and about to sketch in the go!! I suffer from a chronic illness & really need to get my butt into gear, hoping my 'accidental' art purchases will get me up and out :) maybeinto some kind of routine!!! Just love all your videos!!xxx
Yes,
Don’t let your chronic illness hold you back. Get out there! We may have limits with our health but we can still do what we can
@@sandihester so true....had a few bad days, hoping to get out about in the next few days tho, sketchbook in hand 😊 xx
37 minutes of joy, art, and fun! This made my Friday! Such a bummer about those paint pens. They looked so cool! And I would LOVE to see more of your walking drawing. I'm sure it would be a challenge to film. (Maybe a reenactment in your studio. Ha!) I just love the idea! Any little tips for drawing / painting more would be so helpful. (Also, I was SO hoping you'd find your English accent ... LOL ... I so wanted to hear it. Happy Weekend, Sandi!
I’m thrilled you enjoyed it Michael!!! I should do a video on the walking/sketches. I was quite disappointed that my English accent got camera shy - usually accents just pop out - they usually don’t sound like I intended but they are always interesting 😂
Love your playful spirit, I like the posca markers alot and then I discovered liquitex acrylic markers, they do not have the scratchy feel of the posca just smooth paint!
That’s true - they are smooth
You are going to love the Derwent drawing pencils!
I already got them and I do love them!!
My favorites!
I’ve been using paint markers and refillable kind and they are wonderful
"I'm not a colour pencil person" and shows bunch of pencils that she just bought. :D I love that, and I CAN RELATE.
I know - it’s ridiculous 😂
So fun! Makes me want to get my supplies out and draw. I also hate when paint markers leak. Glad you found some good stuff.
Yes, what’s up with the leaking 🙁
The Derwent drawing pencils are my favourite. Unlike any other pencils. Plus I love the natural colours in the set.
I love that set too!
Thanks for another fab video Sandi, its midnight here in the UK, so I watched this before bedtime, now off to dream about art supplies tonight :) much love to you and yours x
Hope you had some good art dreams and woke up ready to paint!
Best wishes for Grady’s quick recovery. Hope he can keep the rubber side down for the rest of the summer. My dogs lost their minds over your squeaky door and dog toe sounds just before you were playing in your sketch book. 😆
I love both the Handbook journals and the Talens Art Creations, too.
Oh me - sorry pups 😂
Yay, just grabbed my cup of coffee.. .. my Friday is better now..!!
That makes me happy!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the sketch you created with the paint pens!!!! Love it! So playful and fun and full of adventure! So glad I found your channel this week! Loving your videos and vibe!
Thank you and welcome!!!!! 🤗
Very good haul! I use the Luminence and Drawing Pencils on top of Flashe paint - for layer details! The rough matte paint texture takes the pencils really well :)
I also use my Prismacolor Premier Ha!
I think everything works with Flashe 😂
@@sandihester as the UK peeps say, "Innit" LOL
Spectra fix is a great fixative, not anaerosol, no odor. Its great!
I’ve hear that’s a good fixative - just haven’t tried it yet
I am so excited for you!!! That is a great art haul. I have not tried any of the products yet. I plan on looking into some of those products soon. 🙂
Oh good Madelyn!
I’ve been so curious to try posca markers! But I’m trying to chill with my art supply spending lately! So thanks for spending that money and letting me live vicariously through you😂
You’re welcome 😂
I love those A6 small sketchbooks. Perfect size
Great haul! The fixative info was very helpful. My sketchbooks are currently full of sheets of wax paper to protect my pastel sketches, so I will definitely be doing some shopping! I think your mixed-media sketches/paintings are some of my favourites because they’re so loose and have beautiful line work. Thanks for another great video! 🙌
Awe - thanks - so glad you like the mulitimedia pages - they’re growing on me 😂. When I filmed this I had forgotten that I sprayed more pages with the oil pastel fixative and it works really really good!
Hi Sandi, somehow I'd recently lost your YT channel and I was so bummed! But alas, the sun came out and I found you once again! Just want to mention, and you might have already said it on here. Be careful when you shake those big, fat markers, like the three you have in green. They make great coverage and super useful, but when you shake them, as you should before each use, make certain THE LIDS ARE ON TIGHT!! I used to make a ton of signs and chalk boards at my near by Trader 'store. Can't tell you how many signs I ruined by the paints splattering out on my work! Other than that, they are terrific.(at least the Poscas are, never tried the other brand.) ;)
Yea- it’s a bummer that they leak
Wow! You have the nicest art supplies and sketchbooks in your country! New supplies are always the best thing to get! Oh...those sketchbooks....
I agree - new supplies are so fun!
I'm hoping Grady is ok! My husband rides his mountain bike here in Arkansas, and I worry!!! So speedy recovery! Fun to see all the products. No bueno on the leaking! You saved me from buying them for sure! Always fun to watch. Thanks, Sandy!
So glad you enjoyed it and Grady is all healed up now!
@@sandihester thank goodness!!! We made my husband get a full-face helmet for trail riding.
Yay for happy healed husband and new art supplies!! 🚴🎨
We're in lockdown atm, and my husband is training via Zwift, on the indoor trainer, for a ride that may not even happen. It's a road bike charity event. Oh and I'm in Canberra, ACT, Australia.
I would love to see some oil pastel content!
Really like your enthusiasm.
🤗
Dick Blick is really great about replacing any art supplies you're not happy with. Just call customer support. You had mentioned that the cover of the white sketchbook was kind of crushed and messed up. I think they would send you a replacement. I'm not sure what they do about the leaking paint pens. You have encouraged me to start using my can of oil pastel fixative, and to order those Derwent drawing pencils.
Great video Sandi, I knew you’d love the Posca pens! I like your final sketch, I love the mixed media layering. Be careful with those fixatives if you have respiratory problems, I always take whatever I’m spraying outside and leave it to dry there as well.
Thank you! Yes, I ALWAYS use them outside too!!!!!! And unusual pull my shirt up over my mouth and nose - that stuff is STRONG!
Oh I didn't know they made a special fixative for oil pastels, I'm going to need to check that out, I love using oil pastels in my sketchbook. Those giant paint markers look fun
The fixative has been working great. I forgot about a ton of other paintings I sprayed it on
Super fun video! I bought my first Poscas a few weeks ago, but I only got white for highlights in my paintings. The small nib is definitely the one I reach for. I also use the Sennelier fixative for pastels and I like it! Works really well for me.
Glad to hear the fixative works for you too!
New sub here. I HAD to. Your vids are so much fun to watch and live vicariously through you. 🙂 I love art. I paint with watercolor/gouache and acrylic. I love to color or paint a coloring page as well. So yeah ...I had to sub. 🙂
Welcome Gia! So glad you are enjoying the videos!!
I too find the derwent drawing pencils click! Amazing
Think about contacting Blick about the leaking markers and the charcoal fixative. The company’s that make them need to know how bad they are and you shouldn’t pay for inferior products. Use the refunded for more Posca pens!
Good point - I should reach out!
Wishing Grady healing from his accident🙌 About this art haul it was juicy beginning middle and end love your excitement energy and ohhhhh soooooo good vibes sketchbooks are very exciting I will be using my new ones for special artwork themed purposes so I'm sitting around and staring at them rubbing my hands together jumping up and down fast heartbeat doing something this weekend and I never use the first two pages it's a thing with me thanks for sharing Sandi 😋🥰👌
So glad you liked the art haul Deborah!!
love how excited you are about new supplies 😀
luminance pencils are really nice, love them but hardly use them due to the price lol
They are pricey!
Yay! Art haul!!!
You radiate so much joy in every video. I am so glad I found your channel.
Awe - thanks so much Hector!
Take an Elegant Writer pen and your water brush on your walk... the EW is an ink pen that watercolours into green and pink washes... so you’d only have to take the 2 pens 🤗🤗🤗
Good tip!
I am so glad I stumbled on your channel, I love it and learn so much ..... funny I grew up camping in a Airstream trailer, mind you the Airstream club ‘WB’ is nothing like yours if it is even the same one. They were all really old and there we were a young family, 4 loud kids , a dog, bikes etc. Actually I thing my dad just like having the numbers and blinking their lights to each other on the highways, however we had a ball travelling every summer. Love love your work
Oh, that’s so cool! We love our camper!
The speedball hand book journals are my favorite!
Oh, and Montana markers are refillable. They also sell empty ones that are great for mixing your own colors, or filling other brands of acrylic ink.
Derwent also has some colored graphite pencils that are amazing
I second that! Take one or two of those and your water brush!
Yep, I have them - willl be sharing those soon!
Love it!! As always my fave UA-cam artist 👩🏻🎨👍🏼💕🙏🏼
Awe - thank you- that means a lot!
I want to be like you when I grow up! I'm so happy I found you!
So happy to have you here too!
I found this video useful because you tested the supplies in your sketchbooks rather than just showing them. Good stuff with honest reviews. I love your loose art style when it is on a big scale & the colours used wow. I may invest in some posca paint pens.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Amo você, amo o seu trabalho e amo os seus vídeos!! ❤
😁😁😁 can’t wait to watch!
Getting excited over fixative 🤣 yay 😁 👍
I know. 😂😂😂
You are so funny...although, I get the same way with new art supplies. Thanks for sharing your joy!
What a fun haul!
Oh good! So glad you liked it!
for xmas bought my granddaughter a marker making kit by crayola i bought some acrylic paint marker on amazon i had that paper disintegration thing but with a light hand it doesn't happen then , so i thought i have this kit i'm going to try to make my own first 2 i didn't liquify the paint enough i've made 6 more now omg how much fun are these markers then on mercari a girl had 7 sets 16 blanks each total 36$ so for 3$ i can make another 112 markers
Don't you just love the color names. Love ur art🌻
YES!!!!
loved seeing your haul excitement hope you enjoy your new goodies
Thanks so much!!
That green sketchbook! Okay, mine is arriving on Tuesday.
😂😂😂🙌
I already need to repurchase
Beautiful art haul ! I like the lion sketch you made. So sad that those acryl markers are not holding up ! The luminance pencils are one of my favorites pencils. The square sketchbook from Talens art creation is a very cheap one over here in Belgium. It’s about 4$ but the paper is really strong for different mediums.
Have a nice artsy week
Wow - that is cheap - it’s not that cheap here
I really enjoy your art hauls. It's a shame those paint pens leak like that. I had seen those recently and wondered how well those worked, so its good to know before I invested in them. So many things out there I want to play with lol
I’m glad I could give you a heads up!
Hi Sandi,that was Great fun opening the Art haul,it must be one of the Best feelings going.I use polychrome by Fabre Castell and prefer them to Derwent.I have to tell you ....I recently bought an enamel rice dish to use as my Gouache palette and I’m loving it❤️I just bought Caran Dache Gouache....wow wow wow,you have to try them,it’s like spreading butter on the page.Got a new Leda sketchbook arriving tomorrow,I tend to stick with those.Thanks Sandi for all the Arty tips,keep the videos coming.xxDisapointed you didn’t do the English Accent,I’m in the UK so would love to hear it 🤣
I REALLY wanted to do the accent - sometimes they just roll out of me but I guess that day it got camera shy 😂
Of all of my full sets of pencils the Derwent Drawing pencils are the ones that are the most used for sure. And yes, those big Montana markers leaking has driven me nuts too. I love how big and fat they are but I hate opening them and getting sprayed with whatever greenhouse moisture situation has happened in those caps.
😂 April - you nailed it - it’s totally like a green house!!!!!! Such a bummer!
on amazon there are actually sumee (Chinese calligraphy) water brushes that you might like! i think they are faux fur too (meaning they handle like the fur Chinese calligraphy brushes) if you're interested, they are definitely bigger than the pental water brushes!!
WHAT?’!?!? Um, yes - sign me up! I need them!
@@sandihester the ones I bought were REAMTOP Chinese Calligraphy water brush. Under $15 for 6 brushes 2 small 2 med 2 large, I filled 3 with water 3 with ink!
The small Aquash waterbrush is very small!
I just found your channel and I love it! You seem to be such a friendly soul. Derwent pencils are really popular in Poland where I live. However I’m so into Posca Markers for the last few weeks that I don’t even touch other media 😂 enjoy your week!
That’s fun when you find a medium you really love!
Sandi I’m sure posca do bigger pens on the stand they look huge.
Yet another fab video so funny because I hold of watching as I so enjoy them.
Now watching your old videos twice so love them.
Have you seen an artist carry akroyd? Much love Chris xx
Awe - thanks so much!!! Yes, others have told me they have bigger posca 🙌. I’ll check Carry out!
giiirll!! How have I NOT found you before!!! You are my energy twin! LOL and yeah... also attracted to weeds. LOL Look for me to haunt your comments LOL sending you love from Knoxville!!
Knoxville?!?!? We’re practically neighbors! Thank you for your fun comment and WELCOME!
@@sandihester yes! I'm in Nashville all the time! In fact, was at the Opryland Hotel competing in a clogging competition over Labor Day! It was so fun! Nashville is like a 2nd home to me
You look stunning!
Thank you!
I absolutely love how free you are! I'm so jealous. I keep thinking about it and then I chicken out. Lol
Anyway, I wanted to ask if you ever play with gouache? My choice of medium is watercolor. I tend to think of it as 'cost effective' for me, but here lately, I've been playing with waterbased gouache. I purchased the Himi brand and bought some other brand at the local art store (can't remember the brand). It is opaque, so what I like about it, is how I can go either light to dark or dark to light. I sometimes use both, like for clouds. I have a very difficult time leaving white, white. Lol
Thank you for your weekly videos! I look forward to Fridays because you make me feel so welcome to the painting world.
Thank you! Yes, I’m very familiar with gouache and use it often in my sketchbooks
posca do the large 15 mm square tips as well! (also brush tips, tried them once but they were kinda dry. love the others tho!)
Thank you! I’ll check them out!
Hi Sandi! So fun to watch! I second your opinion on the paint pens. So far, Posca is my all time fave! My hubby gifted me a set of the Arteza paint pens.....and I kind of love them too. It's an affordable brand...I think you can find them on the Arteza site, and also on Amazon. One drawback is they don't dry as quickly as the Posca. BUT....some FUN COLORS! Quick question....I know you've shared this somewhere before....but can you remind me what kind of sketchbook that GIANT one is that you open up at the end of the video? LOVE IT! Cheers, and thank you for the inspiration! -Dori Patrick
It’s a Moleskine and I have a link in the description of videos I use it in. Thanks for the marker tips!
Nice video thanks for sharing, I just purchased the sennelier oil pastel fixative, I am glad to see it works☺️☺️ also quite interested to check the derwent pencils..they look really good... about the acrylic markers..that leaking is too much, I am a fan of poscas, and even if i tried quite a few of other markers, i think you can't go wrong with the poscas....
I agree about the posca!
You can buy empty paint pens, Sandi, and fill them with your own paint mixes - but, like you, I don't find the tool itself great to work with.
Watching you really makes me want to do art. But where should I start.
Pick up a sketchbook and put some things on a table (grab some simple shapes things- oranges, grapes, jam jar) and break things down into shapes - circle, square, etc. And just have fun!
@@sandihester thank you
Oh my gosh, you're so likable! New subscriber here =)
Awe - thanks! And WELCOME!!!!
Real helpful video. I watched it twice!
So what brand fixative would you use to seal charcoal sticks and Art Graf blocks since you really didn’t like Lascaux? Have you tried hairspray for sealing charcoal?
Hope Grady feels better!
He is!
Hi Sandi, the link for the white sketchbook doesn't work for me. All the others are ok.
Hmmmmm, I just tried it and it’s working. I’m sorry!
❤️
Wow! so much fun 😍 all the art supplies make me so happy lol ... Sandi, between Stillman and Birn's Zeta sketchbook and moleskine which one is better for mixed media?
Probably zeta
Old cheep hair spray, the cheaper usually the better. Must be in a aerosol can. Is the best fixative, I have ever used. For chalk pastels and charcoal. (Try to find the really old brands). Still needs 2-3 coats though....
Good tip!
Derwent Drawing 👍
🙌
Please teach me how to use the water brush! Every time I try the color gets sucked up into the water reservoir instead of going on the paper…
Hmmm that’s strange. Not sure why that’s happening
Try Holbein Colored Pencils or Derwent Lightfast
I'm new to your channel, love your personality, love your house, love your spirit, love love love. I also very much love your HAAIR!! And now the off-topic question: how do you style it? Because I think we have the same curl/wave pattern and I never manage it to look this way.
thank you so much! I'm pretty simple with my hair. Put some gel in it and put some clips in the top to dry and I just air dry it and go to bed with it slightly damp
watch sarah burns she made montana markers and i just got obsessed
Will do!
“This is my stache of colored pencils” 🥸
😂
Oh and wait until you find the Posca brush pens!
Ohhhhh!
You're the cutest.
🤗 thank you!
@@sandihester a moment of gratitude: I'm basically, a "toddler" artist here. Learning and enjoying the process, zero training besides UA-cam, a little talent, and a lot of audacity. Thank you for sharing your passion. I have been loving your content and have been soaking it all up. I think I'll sign up for your class because I was super excited to learn more. Even though I'm a baby, I can gleam that I might work more "tight" and you might work more "lose" naturally, do you think the class will help me?
@@christineschneider3341 yes! The class has nothing to do with your style of painting.
