  • In this sketchbook session, I use crayola crayons to sketch! Crayons are always so fun but tricky to use.

    Kid: buys expensive art supplies to “draw better”. Still makes stickmans
    JelArts: buys crayons. *Draws lizards and cute bunnies smoothly*

    I saw the thumbnail and got excited because I love drawing bugs and I really wanted to see you draw a bee. I'm not done watching, but I love your art, so I'm excited to see you draw with crayons!
    Edit: I finished watching. You did a great job with these, I do want to try out crayons in my sketchbooks sometime! Nice work, I love your art.

    7:37 in my high school mixed media class, we would use white crayon to block off areas we definitely didnt want watercolor on because it would just bead right off the wax. the more you know!

    oil pastels are very nice to work with it has more pigment but it depends on your preference if you like a sketchy vibe more then maybe find oil pastels with more wax in them like crayons but oil pastels can also create that type of vibe. Plus you can blend with your fingers with oil pastels.

    To break the wax buildup, place a doubled paper towel over the art and use an iron. The wax will wick into the towel and allow you to add another layer. It also gives the art a lovely look.

      @cferracini 5 років тому

      @@JelArts I have used them before and they really are watercolor crayons. I actually like them, much more than watercolor pencils but I also feel they are a different medium than crayons as we know them (wax). I think a professional version of wax crayons should be waxy as well, just better pigmented and allowing you to do better blending. That's something that would make sense in my head. So, maybe, the professional version is simply using professional non-water-soluble color pencils?
