Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лис 2024
- Hey folks, in my latest art haul video, I cracked open my monthly SketchBox and a grab bag from the SketchBox shop, both loaded with some fun art supplies. I also got some funky stamps and archival ink, perfect for creating vibrant swatch pages. I also show off the yummy Stencil Club's January 2024 collection. Dive into the video to witness my hands-on exploration of these unique materials as I put them to the test and share my thoughts on their artistic potential.

I do have that Sketchbox. I have never used liquid watercolor but now I will ❤Thank you ❤The black paper was beautiful ❤
Have fun!! 🎨🎨🎨
Wow, I love these two techniques! Can’t wait to try them.
Have fun! 🎨🎨🎨 Thank you! 🥰
There is a movie called Red about Mark Rothco played by Alfred Molina. It was very good.
Cool! I’ll check it out! Thank you! 🥰
The one on the black paper looks like the moon and stars on a cloudy night. Love it.
It does! ✨ Thank you! 🥰
Those oil stick are great for stencil ing on walls too. Way back in the early 80's I used the oil sticks to stencil a big beautiful Grape Vine all around the top of my walls in my living room, I did a lot of oil painting back then. I like to paint murals on certain walls in my house, although now I'm not able to, I'm too old to climb ladders.😊
Oh cool! Not sure I want to be on the ladder much anymore either 😁
It’s so fun to play with new supplies❣️❣️❣️❣️
It is 😁🎨🤗
Hi Denise, I really love the idea of using a pipette to lay down water and then drip the paints into it. And love the metallics on the black paper. Finally, I wanted to mention that I love the amethyst ring you wore on today's video.
It is so much fun watching the colors run in the water!! But takes a while to dry 🤪 Thank you! 🥰
I’ve always loved Mark Rothko’s art - what a great potential source for a future class!
It really is! Thank you! 🥰
I am really really loving the black paper/metallics. And that silver pen!! LOVE
Those came out cool on that black paper! 😊
I’m in Georgia this week and thinking about you, I love Rothko too. I was in Ft. Worth last month and went to the MOMA and saw a few of his works as well as DeKooning. Although I’m going through my Matisse deep dive right now and really enjoying it. thanks for a genius idea for hanging stencils! I hate digging through a door and them getting hung up on each other! Thank you for another great video Denise.
I’d love to see his pieces at MOMA! Hope you are having fun visiting Ga and don’t get caught up in our traffic!! Glad you enjoyed this! Thank you! 🥰
Enjoyed unboxing with you! Thank you! Used a little too much water with the liquid watercolors and had a watery mess even with a pipette HaHaHa! I'll have to try it again sometime 😊
Always fun to experiment! You learn great things to go forward with!! Glad you painted with me! 🎨🎨🎨
Hi Denise, since you love how the watercolors move and run into organic shapes, I thought you might like to look into trying out a few Schmincke Super Granulating colors, which are absolutely gorgeous, they come in sets or individual tubes. I also love how these watercolors create these beautiful runs and organic shapes. Especially if you throw a bunch of water drops onto your paper first, or use a spray to make them run. Just say'in. 🤗
I have all the Schmincke ones!! I need to get them back out… I love them! 😁
There is a Rothko in the Crystal Bridges museum in Arkansas. It’s one of my favorites and it is mesmerizing.
Cool! 😊
What a fun art haul! I just got the silver pen but in gold. They are nice! Thanks Denise 😊❤
Thank you! 🥰
The moment you shared the painter cling stamps you purchased from Etsy, I paused your video ( I just couldn’t help myself, they were so stinking’ cute!) and hit the link to Etsy (praying they hadn’t sold out) and ordered them!! I have all of my water soluble mediums swatched in the Painter’s Diary, but how fun are these stamps?!?! You purchase the best stuff, Denise. Thanks for sharing and feeding my own art materials obsession. 😜😂😘
I swatch out in the painters diary too… but I have more stuff to swatch.. and how fun were those? Glad you got one! Thank you! 🥰
Love the Sketchbox! Loved the metallics on the black page!
Those were fun! Thank you! 🥰
I use Ranger Archival ink for almost everything (except alcohol pens) and love it. Great idea for making a fun swatch set with stamped images. I wish I had seen that mystery grab bag, awesome contents. Love the results of your play with new products. Oh, and I use something similar for my large stencils. Thanks Denise.
I think I’m really going to love the ranger pad. I love that it did smear! 😊
Great haul! I bought some funky fossil stamps about a month ago that have little paint tubes and spray can for swatching. You can also get the dies to match that cut them out. Art journal love designed them.
Oh cool! Thank you! 😊
Hi Denise, yes you can use any watercolors with different nibs for dip pens, just mix up the watercolors a little thicker and make sure you watercolor covers over the whole area of the nib where there's openings so the paint will flow. 😊
That’s very helpful! Thanks for the tip! 😊
@@2lilowlsstudio finetec paints are popular. And you can mix the watercolour with a bit if gouache to thicken it up as well. If you thin gouache it will also work
Interesting experiments as always Denise (& interesting supplies too :) -- Rothko is one of my very favorite artists, looking forward to how/if he might inspire your further adventures ❤
I love his work too… looking forward to diving in a bit with it! Thank you! 🥰
Received your special Sketchbox today. I expected it to come in a nice box, but it was just a plain old ugly envelope. Oh, well. Love the products, very pleased with them and can't wait to play with the new stuff!
So glad you got a set! Hope you love giving them a try out! 😊🎨🤗
Great products - I love them.
The minute I saw “art haul” my shopping fingers were twitching. Fun stuff and I love what you did with them, especially the liquid water colors. I was just as surprised as you! Moss green and purple/violet are a favorite color combo. I received an email about grab bags from St. Louis Art Co. Have you ever purchased on of those? FYI Versafine Claire (pigment ink) doesn’t smear either once dry. I use them with Copic markers.
Oooh, I have not seen the grab bags from St Louis Art… I just looked.. sold out 😂… Thank you! 🥰
Lots of love for these products. Great art too!
Thank you! 🥰
such a fantastic collection, very inspiring ☺☺☺
Thank you! 🥰
Holysnap I said: WHAT is that tourture device??!! When I saw the skirt hangers!🤪😂😂 Thats a great idea!! Great haul video!! Denise do you have a video or know of one that explains what the different colored pencils/ crayons/ etc. do? Like the difference between CarenDache or FaberCastel pencils..which ones are water soluble etc. there is so much out there...thanks for any help or leads!❤🎉🥰
Ha! Torture device... funny.. I do not know of a resource that explains all the pencils/crayons. I haven't come across one that goes through them all. 😊
Super fun pieces and supplies!
Thank you! 🥰
Awesome stencil storage.
I think I’m going to like storing them like that. Glad you liked the idea. 😊
Such fun! You are SO creative. I don't do abstract but it looks like such great fun. I should start. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! 🥰
There’s a Rothko I’ve long loved (love him fullstop but...) It’s an early pre colourist piece when he was still quite formative, of a man on a bench (subway platform maybe?) reading a newspaper and the line of the newspaper makes a perfect horizontal infinity loop that grounds all the ephemeral hubbub around.
So cool! I’m excited to dig more into his works. I love the color blocking in some of his pieces and would really enjoy doing a master study on his art. 😊
@@2lilowlsstudiobtw, as I have your attention I’ll take the opportunity to thank you. I’m no kind of artist at all. But I love art & I love mucking about with colour & just making marks on paper. Your videos really free me from the paralysis that comes from seeking control, aiming for significance. It’s not just the techniques, mediums or perceptions that I enjoy learning from you but the freedom. The ‘sod it’ and bringing out the kit to just carelessly, quickly, dash something out for the PURE JOY of it 🙏💐
But oh boy you also make me want to spend.......
@@shelleyscloud3651You’re the best. That really made my day. Thank you! 🥰 (sorry about the spending part 😬)
@@2lilowlsstudio that’s nice to hear! Well it was sincerely made so you can bank it! X
Finally i had to order the bamboo brush. I have to wait for delivery until end of February because sadly i can't get them here in Europe. Anyway, i still love watching your videos.
Hope you like it! Thank you! 🥰
Love this collection! I have to say that lately I’ve been loving your videos as usual, but I’m so distracted by the gorgeous ring on your left hand, lol! What is that stone?!
Thank you! 🥰. That was my mother’s ring. It is an Alexandrite. Turns from blue to purple depending on the light. It is one of my favorite pieces from her jewelry I inherited. I remember when I was a kid - we were antique shopping and she came across it. 😊
Oh wait.. had to look at the video and see what hand I had which ring.. the little bright blueish one is a Fire Opal set in rose gold. I found it years ago and loved how vivid the color was. 😊
Loving today’s haul and will definitely try to get one of the grab bags when they’re back in stock 😁 I checked out the website today, but the two bags I wanted are already sold out.
Also really liked your two art pieces and the owl and house stamps 😃 Question: I don’t see your silver pen/marker listed in today’s supplies and couldn’t quite make out the brand name when I enlarged the screen. Could you please share the name?
Thank you and have a wonderful day 😊
Thank you! 🥰. That looks like it is Sakura pen-touch calligrapher in silver 😊
Both are great
Thank you! 🥰
Love the stencil storage! I didn’t see you use the oil sticks? Did I get distracted?
I didn’t use them today. I’ll definitely pull them out soon. 😊
Excellent, I’m very interested in seeing them! Thanks for all your videos. So inspiring. Loved the Klimt series in skill share @@2lilowlsstudio
@@maryparsons1873Oh good. Klimt is my favorite, so glad you enjoyed that class!! 🥰
What is the brand of the silver calligraphy pen you used? The silver looks so bright - I would love to get one😊
That looks like it is Sakura pen-touch calligrapher in silver 😊
Ps. You have the most amazing jewelry…
Thank you! 🤗🥰
Hi Denise. I just went to the link for StencilGirl Stencil Club and selected two stencils totaling $10. But, it won't give shipping charges until payment is made. Do you have any idea of the range of shipping charges? Thx.
I don't know on the shipping... the stencil club is $25 and that includes shipping - so it isn't separated out.
Oh. Thank you. It's a membership. How fun! Is that an annual fee? Thx. @@2lilowlsstudio
The grab bages are all sold out, the same with your curated bag 😢
Definitely keep checking back - they have been stocking the grab bags pretty regularly! 😊
