Hey guys!! One thing that's pretty important that I forgot to say was that you do not need these fancy art supplies to be a good artist. Practice makes you a good artist and spending money on high end paints will not make you any better. Please don't take this video as me trying to tell you that you need any of these items, I just simply wanted to answer a lot of the questions about what I use frequently. I had to work my way up from buying cheap generic supplies, and earning money from my artwork with those in order to upgrade, there's no shame in using cheaper supplies and don't let anyone tell you different!
Ally in drawsland yeah, I see your point. Not everyone has the time to watch a 20 minute video, but some people do, that's all I'm saying and I personally like 20 minutes videos cause I do have time. I guess it depends on different people lol.
I just love art supplies. Some people can't stop buying shoes, I can't stop buying watercolor palettes.. :') Great video, I'll definitely try to save up for the mijello watercolors.
Thank you for this! I also think it is good to know that there is also no shame in using fancy art supplies. Some people also like to shame others for having these sort of things - but you worked hard to get these so you deserve it. :)
personally, I only get annoyed when people get super expensive art materials but they don't do anything with it. like, why get expensive tools and flaunt them when you don't regularly use them. Otherwise, I enjoy the video a lot and get excited for the artist who got them.
Legit going out & buying half of these lol! I've been an artist for years now & lately I've fallen off & want to get back on track! Your art inspires me & I love how you don't use overly expensive items! I'm going to be doing inktober this year & wondered what you used to do yours! So now I can get the right supplies! Thank you!
Some of Daniel Smith's watercolours granulate A LOT, which might be the weird texture you're talking about. It's what some of their paints are well known for. The level of granulation mihgt be excessive for some but it's pretty fun to play around with :)
that's exactly why I loooove their paints!! granulation is my favorite! Some of the colors I have seem a little waxy, they're tough to get pigment from and it turns out milky and slimy almost? It's really weird, has that happened to you?
JacquelinDeleon -- what colors?? I use DS almost exclusively and maybe when i get some new ones or my friends do, we can find out if it was a bad batch maybe?
Hi! I just wanted to comment a little about those Daniel Smith watercolors you were talking about. Some of their pigments are made with minerals and pigments and that is why they have a grainy or uneven application. They are meant to be that way. If you look at the color swatches when you buy the paint they usually do reflect that texture so you can know what you are getting. I recently purchased their Primatek set witch is made all up of crystals and I absolutely love them, but I would not generally use them as a primary base color for a painting. They work great for achieving certain textures and to tint or lightly glaze. Because they are made with different crystals, the colors are very pure but they behave very differently so it's just a matter of getting used to it and finding the right place to use them. :)
that's exactly why I loooove their paints!! granulation is my favorite! Those sound pretty amazing, I just bought one of their sample sheets so I can try out all the colors, so excited! Some of the colors I have seem a little waxy, they're tough to get pigment from and it turns out milky and slimy almost? It's really weird, has that happened to you?
JacquelinDeleon Whoa, I haven't encountered that milky slimy thing you're talking about. I don't think I'd like that if I did...well, actually I do have an orange color (I think cadmium orange light) that has a milky quality to it. Not so much slimy but definately milky.
I love your hair - it's a lovely shade of blue :). These videos are so useful in terms of hints and tips on storage - thanks, you've given me some ideas. I love the idea of drawing in coffee shops for practicing people.
I realize just now that I've never seen your face before! I imagined you (vaguely) much differently but I'm so pleased to know what you look like now so I know the face behind the beautiful artwork that I love so much 😁💙 It was neat to see all your supplies. I have that gold ink set on my list as well.
Thanks for sharing your stuff with us! I love to see what products other artists use and why, it's either a great recommendation or a great alternative to keep in mind. I'm DYING to get a Finetec palette myself, I love sparkle so much! lol
A recommendation. If your bic pens dry out on you try Zebra pens. I use them at work, and they are smooth, consistent and don't catch while putting down a line. They're a mid range priced pen depending how high on the hooks you pull from. EDIT: Here they are www.staples.com/Zebra-Z-Grip-Retractable-Ballpoint-Pen-Medium-Point-Black-24-Pack/product_609710 They also sell them in bulk at costco
I love your custom skin and case from GelaSkins! I use them all the time and I would LOVE to be able to get your artwork through their store in the future. My daughter and I LOVE your work and enjoy following you on Patreon, too!
I have mission gold paints too! They're definitely vibrant and very lovely colors! I've been looking into those finetec gold paints so thanks for the tip!
Great video! I have the same bullet proof glass pallet it's great, my daughter came home from university for a visit and she had the same colour hair! I loved it lol
Ha, you make me wanna run to my artsupply store...Ohoh. Daniel Smith has a lot of granulating watercolors. Maybe that is what you meant? Good news they have dotcards. So you can swatch out the colors and see how they behave and look...and of course if you like them...:) Good luck and have fun with inktober! Looking forward what you will make.
I love this thorough list of your supplies since yes, people will always want to know what you use. I also appreciate that you demonstrated each of the things, and said important and honest details about them, like for your sketchbook you made sure to say it's good, but not for lots of water. Love that pencil case, too! If you like that Fluid watercolor paper, you might want to consider trying the Kilimanjaro paper from Cheap Joe's, which is my favorite and what I ended up loving AFTER I found that cotton fluid paper. Which used to be my favorite. =>.
Hey Jacquelin :), I follow you for awhile,but don't think I ever commented yet! Some Daniel Smith colors have a weird texture because they use many granulating pigments. The granulating ones are marked with a "y" in their color charts. I hope this is helpfull for you to avoid more hit and miss experiences. :) Keep up the amazing work!
I love that you made your own skin cover for your ipad and cell phone. You could really start doing that with your other artworks and sell it in your store!
One of my favorite sketchbooks is the Mossery sketchbook because copics don't bleed through very badly on their mixed media paper. I use a lot of pastel copics in my sketches and the color doesn't bleed :D it only bleeds really obviously if it's a darker color. I also really like canson XL.
I think it's great that people mention that you don't need fancy art supplies to make art because people have various reasons why they are stuck with cheap ones.
I use a lot of Mission Gold too! An unhealthy amount, actually. Oh god, what has Mission Gold done to me? It's made my paintings look totally boss, that's what!
I think it was in another video you also used some bigger wire bound brushes? I'm having a hard time finding that one and looking for some to try! Thank you!
Question, where do you get your enamel pins? Do you get them on etsy? If so could you recommend some of your favorite shops? I love your videos by the way!
Awesome, i had no idea Leuchtturm is available in the US. I grew up with their stationary as the company comes from my hometown, Hamburg in Germany. "Leuchtturm" means "light-house" btw ;-)
Great video thank you! Also your hair is fantastic :) I have a question, somewhat related to your video: I tried filling my own watercolor palette but the paint ended up molding. Do you know why that happened?
I have a question I hope you can get back to. The skin you got for your iPad, is it like one you just stick right onto it? It's not a case right? And can it be removed easily without wear and tear to the iPad? I'm getting one for christmas and I would really like to get a custom skin/case. Thank you.
Recently I tried the Schneider edge ballpoint pens and I haven't tried any other pen that is as Smooth as those and they come in all colors. Anyway Great video as always!!!
The bags are a Swedish brand and the name fjällräven would if you directly transferred it be ruffly" mountain fox ". Swedish is a language you write many words together so fjällräven is the words "fjäll" ( a kind of mountain ) and "räven" meaning fox. Fun fact about "fjäll" is that the same words can mean two things one I said before the other is scales that animals have. Swedish is full of double meaning words that can bring a laugh. Thanks for the interesting video XD
could you do another video of the watercolour skin tones. I was looking for the one you deleted cause i am into watercolour. And i love all your art works.
I have to totally agree on the Polychromos. I made the mistake of buying the largest set of Prismacolor and the largest set of Caran d’Ache Luminance pencils, and only a 12-color set of Polychromos, and I REALLY wish I’d gotten the largest set of Polychromos right from the start. I like them best by far. I still love my Prismacolor and Luminance, but they both wear out SO FAST, and the Polychromos last a lot longer. I just broke down and ordered a 60 set of the Polychromos. Hoping to get the 120 set someday. Meanwhile I’ll be buying them a few at a time through Blick since they have them open stock online.
I recently bought quite a few tubes of Daniel Smith watercolor and I also have a problem with certain colours. Most of them are AMAZING but then there's a random few that are not pigmented at all, look blotchy and just so dull in comparison. Anyone else have this issue?
Hi Jackie!!!! I love your art so SO much and I've been following you for over a year. My dream is to be an independent artist like you, and from what you've said in the past about your college experience i want a similar education. QUESTION: What did you major in? ( the specific title)

JacquelinDeleon sorry, all your stuff are cool, but the video is too long.
Ally in drawsland I like long videos 😊
Ally in drawsland It may depend on preference, but I like long videos :)
Thatonegreencrayon the same for me, but i don't have always a lot of free time. And then it isn't healthy staying a long time watching videos.
Ally in drawsland yeah, I see your point. Not everyone has the time to watch a 20 minute video, but some people do, that's all I'm saying and I personally like 20 minutes videos cause I do have time. I guess it depends on different people lol.
No one is gonna talk about her plants behind her, I mean 😍🌿
bella teeda the plants are amazing!!!!
her plant setup is goals!
I remember the time when you still used the cheap reeves. Now you have all these items. I am so proud and happy😅😅
I'm dying for that skintone watercolor palette video.
Bulletproof watercolor palette... for the adventurous artist who leaps headfirst in the line of fire 😂
I just love art supplies. Some people can't stop buying shoes, I can't stop buying watercolor palettes.. :') Great video, I'll definitely try to save up for the mijello watercolors.
Clo ver
Me too !
Please make the skin tone watercolor videos because your color palette is amazing 💙💙💙
Thank you for this! I also think it is good to know that there is also no shame in using fancy art supplies. Some people also like to shame others for having these sort of things - but you worked hard to get these so you deserve it. :)
Kelsey Yurkow Art & Illustration I like both fancy and cheap art supplies 😊

OMG YOU ARE SO PRETTY IM SHOOK AS ALWAYS!
Your hair is GORGEOUS!!!! Mermaid vibes all year long 💪

Well, I don't have very many colours. The only one I've had trouble with is viridian - it's like scrubbing a rock. No strange slime though.
JacquelinDeleon -- what colors?? I use DS almost exclusively and maybe when i get some new ones or my friends do, we can find out if it was a bad batch maybe?
I can't use Daniel Smith here in the south because the honey used as a binder attracts bugs.
I love the way you store your color pencils! The box looks really useful and the mermaid scale pouch is too cute!
Me too! I want this so much! Really does looks helpful/useful!😉
I love your videos and the way you explain things. ❤️ keep being great ❤️
You can tell she takes aspects of style from her own appearance,and I think that is so cool💖
Can you also do a video on where you get your stickers made or how you do them yourself if you do them yourself.
K Chenet that is an awesome idea 😊 now I just use society6 so it would be great to see other options

Ali Z zebra owns are great! I use those a lot for sketching when I think about it. Sometimes I just grab whatever is laying around too!
This is really cool thank you for sharing! It is also great that you posted the links! 😊
It is so great to see what you use 😊 thank you! 😊
Thank you very much for sharing your favorites and showing that it doesn't have to be pricey to be good! new subbie!!!
I love your custom skin and case from GelaSkins! I use them all the time and I would LOVE to be able to get your artwork through their store in the future. My daughter and I LOVE your work and enjoy following you on Patreon, too!
Am I the only one that couldn't stop staring at how lovely her hair color was?
Yes to the brush pens! I used then last year for InkTober and I'm using them again for my art videos this year!
I have mission gold paints too! They're definitely vibrant and very lovely colors! I've been looking into those finetec gold paints so thanks for the tip!
honestly your videos always put me in a good mood no matter what ;D
I love your hair and art!! Your art gives me inspiration!!
Great video! I have the same bullet proof glass pallet it's great, my daughter came home from university for a visit and she had the same colour hair! I loved it lol
Omg i love your hair! You look like a mermaid 😱✨💕
Ha, you make me wanna run to my artsupply store...Ohoh. Daniel Smith has a lot of granulating watercolors. Maybe that is what you meant? Good news they have dotcards. So you can swatch out the colors and see how they behave and look...and of course if you like them...:) Good luck and have fun with inktober! Looking forward what you will make.
love you for having soo many plants💕
I want everything, but you got me with that mermaid pencil case... btw, i love your art a little more everyday ♥
I love this thorough list of your supplies since yes, people will always want to know what you use. I also appreciate that you demonstrated each of the things, and said important and honest details about them, like for your sketchbook you made sure to say it's good, but not for lots of water.

I've been looking for a pencil case like yours for ages thank you
I love that you made your own skin cover for your ipad and cell phone. You could really start doing that with your other artworks and sell it in your store!
You are sooo pretty! Also I'm going to check out those cheap Amazon brushes for sure
I'm in LOVE with your hairs
It reminds me of that Barbie mermaid cartoons I used to watch when I was a kid
would you be able to list the sort of colours that make up your skin tone palette, as id be very interested in learning what combinations you use.
One of my favorite sketchbooks is the Mossery sketchbook because copics don't bleed through very badly on their mixed media paper. I use a lot of pastel copics in my sketches and the color doesn't bleed :D it only bleeds really obviously if it's a darker color. I also really like canson XL.
I think it's great that people mention that you don't need fancy art supplies to make art because people have various reasons why they are stuck with cheap ones.
I love your work Jacqueline! Btw your hair too! 😍
tiny pallette is adorable and enjoyed the video! nwn
I love your channel! And your hair reminds me of a mermaid! And I absolutely love it! 😍
When you're talking about the Daniel Smith watercolors, is the texture you're talking about granulation? Most of their colors are granulating.
wow ur hair is amazing!!!!!!
I don't know why but I find you soooo adorable! Great vid by the way
Even I am doing bfa in applied arts
Your channel is just awsam!!!!!
yes please make a skin tone palette video!
I use a lot of Mission Gold too! An unhealthy amount, actually. Oh god, what has Mission Gold done to me? It's made my paintings look totally boss, that's what!
I think it was in another video you also used some bigger wire bound brushes? I'm having a hard time finding that one and looking for some to try! Thank you!
You are really cute and smart :) Thank you for posting this video and keep painting!
It's always so cute when non-swedes/scandinavians try to pronounce fjäll-räven
Love your arts. Btw. Nice hair
Question, where do you get your enamel pins? Do you get them on etsy? If so could you recommend some of your favorite shops? I love your videos by the way!
Id still really love to see which paints you have set up in your skin tone palette if you dont mind sharing
omg thank you soo much! *-* I was so exited while watching this (don't know if that's kind of strange lol)
Awesome, i had no idea Leuchtturm is available in the US. I grew up with their stationary as the company comes from my hometown, Hamburg in Germany. "Leuchtturm" means "light-house" btw ;-)
Great video thank you! Also your hair is fantastic :)
I have a question, somewhat related to your video: I tried filling my own watercolor palette but the paint ended up molding. Do you know why that happened?
please hurry and make another video on making this palette!! i want to know every color you use lol!!
I have a question I hope you can get back to. The skin you got for your iPad, is it like one you just stick right onto it? It's not a case right? And can it be removed easily without wear and tear to the iPad? I'm getting one for christmas and I would really like to get a custom skin/case. Thank you.
Nice video! Have one question thoe... Does the leuchtturm soak a lot of the ink from your copic markers?
I cant find you on store envy! When I click the link it just sends me to the site.. I'm obsessed with your enamel pins
Recently I tried the Schneider edge ballpoint pens and I haven't tried any other pen that is as Smooth as those and they come in all colors. Anyway Great video as always!!!
I want to get the first backpack but idk if it will be big enough to hold all my school books. Do you think it would work?
Your art is as beautiful as you. And I love your art!
O.o I have a pack of those brushes! They're really good!
I would love to see more on procreate! I've been considering getting an ipad and it for a while now :)
Nahhhh, your backpack isn't dirty. It's just well loved!
Please do make a video on the skin tone palette 💕
Also the gold palette is beautiful

could you do another video of the watercolour skin tones. I was looking for the one you deleted cause i am into watercolour. And i love all your art works.
I was just hunting down a video of urs if you talked about the skin tone pallet hopefully you have time to make a video about it after October !
I like the ink pen pouch!!!
I love your blue hair, you look like a mermaid! :)
I have to totally agree on the Polychromos. I made the mistake of buying the largest set of Prismacolor and the largest set of Caran d’Ache Luminance pencils, and only a 12-color set of Polychromos, and I REALLY wish I’d gotten the largest set of Polychromos right from the start. I like them best by far. I still love my Prismacolor and Luminance, but they both wear out SO FAST, and the Polychromos last a lot longer. I just broke down and ordered a 60 set of the Polychromos. Hoping to get the 120 set someday. Meanwhile I’ll be buying them a few at a time through Blick since they have them open stock online.
I recently bought quite a few tubes of Daniel Smith watercolor and I also have a problem with certain colours. Most of them are AMAZING but then there's a random few that are not pigmented at all, look blotchy and just so dull in comparison. Anyone else have this issue?
Hi Jackie!!!! I love your art so SO much and I've been following you for over a year. My dream is to be an independent artist like you, and from what you've said in the past about your college experience i want a similar education. QUESTION: What did you major in? ( the specific title)
AGDAKJDL your voice is so relaxing
Your doodles (and your face) are absolutely gorgeous
you're such a pretty and kind person
I love your art supplies miss
