I have a set of 60 and use them for fine detail with my watercolors. I have yet to do a whole painting with them. Thanks for the tip about using a synthetic brush. Nice to see your Darth Vader come to life. Your grandson should be pleased.
Hi DeeAnn! Thank you so much ☺️ I’m glad you enjoyed this video and I hope you get a chance to play with your watercolor pencils more and more❤️
that is just awesome. what a cool drawing to show your grandson. because of videos like these, i'm about to jump into the watercolor pencil boat.
Hi Yule! I’m really happy you enjoyed this! Watercolor pencils are really nice to use and very portable! Enjoy them…and may the force be with you!😊😉🤦🏻♀️😂🤠
Great watercolor pencils, I'm sure they will serve you well. Your drawing is gorgeous .
Like 17.
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you enjoyed this video. The Albrecht Dürer are terrific I hope you get to experience using them❤️
You made me laugh with your excitement at "dark background for Darth to emerge from". You are awesome!! Wish I was your granddaughter but I'm 40 so.. a little bit too old for it!!! Thank you for this video, I just got these pencils and starting watercolour now... Let's see what I can do!!!
lol thank you so much! I’m happy this brought you laughter-there’s nothing better!! Enjoy the Albrecht Dürers! I hope you get many years of creativity with them…maybe enough to paint something for your own grandchildren someday🥰👩🏻🎨
They are great pencils. Your series is so useful. Thank you
Hi Paula! Thank you so much I’m happy you are enjoying this series! These will sure be hard to beat❤️
Omg..that was amazing. Your voice is very relaxing. Such a cool lady.. ❤
Oh wow thanks James! I’m so happy you enjoyed this!
I knew that Albrecht Durer pencils are break resistant but not immune to breakages sharpening it that way is risky and accidentally breaking the pencil lead makes me anxious.
And BTW, shredded pigments from sharpening the pencils are reusable and can be kept if you have a tray
Oh my! Sorry I made you anxious! I love these pencils. Yes, the shavings are 100% reusable as they are wonderful flakes of pigment! Thanks for your comments🤠💙
Terrific review and demonstration! I have these pencils and love them. Your use, addition of water, salt, and other products is on fire. Thank you!
Wow! Thank you so much! Happy Holidays❤️💚
Haaaa! The best kept secret in movie making history … even kept from the actors themselves. 😊 I believe Star Wars was the first Dolby Surround Sound … It’s the second one made (The Empire Strikes Back) … Rebels on the run and the pure power music; The Emperor’s Theme. My favorite…
I am very happy to see a review with the 12 set instead of the expensive billion pencil set. Most would buy the 12 or maybe the 24 just to try them out.
For sharpening I use that TGAAL & only sharpen on 1 & 2. Too many sharpeners have eaten my pencils.
Outstanding! Thank you.
Best. Comment. Ever.
Hands down-thank you so much!! The first Dolby Surround Sound??? That is AWESOME and some trivia I did not know! I will lay that on the fam this week and they will be so impressed! 😳🤯😱🫨☠️😂😂😂
Ok I will have to look for your sharpener recommendation. It’s heartbreaking to see a beloved pencil get chewed up. Pretty sure that one was broken all the way through, but I’m always game for a good sharpener rec!
Thanks again and have an awesome week!! (Insert Emperor’s Theme as your weekend soundtrack here….)☺️
❤ Thank you

Love it ❤
Thank you so much!
Am stuck on Caran D'Ache myself. They don't break as easily.
I will put them in my list to try! I have a few and I do like them-I have not tried the Museum Aquarelle because I am so pleased with the workability of these. I will definitely try them! Thanks for the suggestion 💙👩🏻🎨
Do you have a pencil sharpener you recommend for these? Thx Ann. Good review.
Hi Vati! Thank you -glad you found this useful! In general, my top two sharpeners are the Afmat Manual Long Point and the Derwent. For these, I would suggest the Derwent because the long point created by the Afmat manual might be unnecessary for watercolor pencils. That said, the Electric Afmat Long Point has different lengths to choose from.
If you are curious about more options, here is a review on pencil sharpeners I did awhile back ua-cam.com/video/yKzSLSyCnVM/v-deo.htmlsi=WwRO71j4101Wwm1u
Happy painting! 🤠❤️
Do you have a pencil sharpener?
I just got one but it's not working.
Pls let me know. ❤
Hi Elly! I have 2 that I really rely on in my studio & I’ll include affiliate links for you. The Afmat Long Point -this is the electric version: amzn.to/3vOEOWc and the Derwent Sharpener: amzn.to/3HqJBzP
The Derwent seems to have increased in price. They have another similar model that’s less expensive, but I haven’t tried it: amzn.to/3SoTcxn
Also the Afmat Long Point comes in a manual model. It’s very affordable, the same exact one I use, and there’s a 20% coupon! amzn.to/48XD7Ei
I have a review video of my favorite pencil sharpeners here-this might be helpful to you:

Let me know if you have any further questions 👩🏻🎨🤠❤️
