This felt like an old school doodle date 💗
We wanted to go hard on the nostalgia this week and both ended up having an amazing time :D
This was good
That bag is amazing as is adam's painting. Credit due, take your bows, steph you are the teacher.
HAHA She's the best teacher ever! Ive never met someone so patient with me LOL
Yooo that bag IS amazing!! Canvas bag with extra pockets that are also a cool design feature? Incredible
Right?! I love this thing so much its perfect for arting outside!
Missed you! 🤩 I've been just rewatching some old vids, "will it paint" playlist. Ahhhh yay
I love that series so much HAHA Adamo wants to eat so many of the things we use!
@@DoodleDate Hey, seaweed sheets are really yummy 😁
I have a friend who uses a cane and she said that the one she has now, with a bottom that looks like a little tiny 4 legged table is so much nicer than using a regular walking stick. When she tried to use a regular one, she said it would always slide out from under her/slip away instead of supporting her.
Just wanted to pass it along because of Steph's recent sharing of the stick in case it could help anyone looking into mobility aids!
Thank you for the tip Jaida! We also managed to get our hands on a chair for Steph too recently ❤
@@DoodleDate fantastic! That must be so helpful!!! Especially for your peace of mind
make sure you use the cane with the opposite side of your injury or it's also VERY awkward (I use a cane sometimes)
19:30 oh my gosh a shout out to the "genuine reeves brush" 😄 I'll never forget that video, I watched it when it was forst uploaded & still love it 💛
I think cass art are actually fairly good!! What I’d love to see you try is the new shore and marsh range that I’ve just seen pop up in hobbycraft over the last month. My hobbycraft has little tins and up to 48 and I’d love to see what you think of them! They weren’t too expensive. I have fancy Paul Reuben’s ones so I didn’t buy any but I think it’d be cool to try! And see if they’re good
oh gosh its been forever since we took a trip to hobbycraft now i really want to!! ❤
@@DoodleDate there’s been so many new stuff!!!! This shore and marsh brand super intrigued me! I’ve seen the watercolour palettes I mentioned but also brushes, bags and paper!!! I know you love testing art brands so I thought I’d tell ya about it!
I second that one!
I love that bag! Beautiful and functional! And I think paper sizes are pretty much universal
Paper sizes in Australia and UK and many other places are the same, paper sizes in the US are different, not sure what other countries use US sizing 🤷♀🤷♀
I think it differs in a few places but, for the UK at least it really is perfect for us!!
In the US we use sizing like A4 as well, especially as an artist in school it is referenced by saying A4 and such, but also just via the measurements, depends really haha
Also I really really love my posca pencil crayons.
I love both your art pieces but for myself I'm on team rugged.
I love buying from cass Art, jackson's and graffcity. Feels good to see so much creativity born in the UK.
Oh!! Jackson's is also a really good call for the UK as well! We've ordered from them online in the past and the shipping is always so fast! O:
I'm in team rugged!
Nice texture goes brrrrrrrrrrr!
This is the best way to describe it LOL something is just so satisfying about the texture it has!!
Oooo I didn't know Cass Art had their own watercolours, that's really neat! I love their hot press paper
We'll have to try that out at some point too! O:
So exciting you got to met up with your art friends in real life! Omg so fun! And that tote bag looks super awesome!
We had the best time! We're so blessed to have such wonderful art friends and an amazing community!!
I honestly love Cass Arts💖 I haven't tried out their watercolour selection yet, but their markers, finliners, and little sketchbooks are very good, especially if you're on a bit of a budget (summer sales baby!)
Omg i wanna get some different sized sketchbooks to put in the cute baggy!!
Oh yea I really enjoy OG videos like these where you review a Product. Really honoured I got to be there when Steph Swatched these IRL. Also got to see some of Adams And Steph Sketches and Art they look so cool in person. Glad you enjoyed the Art-supplies and ghost. Love you guys!
Ps. Team Smooth!
Have you tried Bockingford paper? That's my fave cellulose watercolour paper so far. And they have some different coloured paper too! There's usually tester packs of Bockingford paper at art stores if you wanted to try it out.
Time to hit up those free samples omg i love this LMAO
i work at cass art and have been watching you guys since i was little!! such a great video thanks for inspiring me guys 💗
Oh wow thats so cool! I hope you enjoy working there too, its such a cute lil store!! ❤
@ doodle date I am so glad to see you are back and safe, hugs for you both. Thank you, Adam for your help with how to store my graphite pencils. I have my own collection of erasers now too. We had to do a swatch of our pencils for a value scale assignment and I thought of you and your dislike for swatching. I am taking a Color Theory class in the Fall. Final is next week.
HAHA I think swatching pencils is probably the most acceptable swatching i can think of!
Good luck with your class as well Erika, we're both rooting for you :D
@doodle date thank you both.
I ordered the paintbrushes before you'd finished 'introducing' them. So exciting! I can't always get my pencil and cutlery grips to work on paintbrushes and the hand pain and weakness means painting has to occur in short bursts. 😊
Theyre very helpful! Steph found them extra comfy to use :D
@@DoodleDate I also ordered some Royal and langnickel ones that popped up when I put them in my basket so I'll be able to test them against each other!
I’m SO JEALOUS of your York Ghost Merchant ghostie! 😍💖 I’m from Canada and stalk the website in hopes they will post them online to snag! 😂
I love this video and am glad to see you both really like the watercolours!
AWW I hope you can grab one soon as well! all of the designs they had were so gorgeous!!
I do digital when I want to tryhard and make everything perfect, everything is just the way I wanted. With traditional art there are so many things you can't control and you can't erase everything so if you let go of perfectionism and experiment a little, you can achieve really nice effects that you didn't expect! Also the feeling of putting down paint on paper/canvas is just soo relaxing.
I think those paints look great for the price!! and I loooove how you can see the texture of the paper in old Ken Sugimori art 😊😊 I'm also super jealous of that tote bag now haha. maybe someday when I learn to sew, I can make something like it for myself!!
I love how he paints so much! It might be my favourite technique for water colours!!
omg, im so happy i’ve been getting your channel in my recommended feed again! i grew up with your channel literally 7-8 years ago , i remember watching your first videos back within the first year of doodle date and rewatching them many many times again when i was bored. its just nice to see you two still together, creating art, and living life happily with your guineas despite all of lifes hard days. i hope you both have a great day 🫶
ps. , back when i was younger i drew some fan art of you both and never got to send it to you, mainly due to procrastination and being a child lol. but you guys were some of my favorite childhood youtube artists. i just hope you guys realize how much of an impact you have given on people. 💗
i love how adam is steph's number one hypeman, you two are such goals
Those paints look very nice on both papers!!!
Honestly they performed so well on both we were pretty impressed! its a shame about the no brush in the set though LOL
For traditional vs digital, I find traditional more calming because of the feel pencils, markers, and brushes. There’s something about that interaction that takes me to another place. I also find it easier to problem solve or figure out techniques traditionally because of that physical interaction.
As for smooth vs rugged for watercolours, I’m team rugged. I love seeing the paper texture for watercolour. In the middle for coloured pencils, a balanced amount of texture and smooth. Markers and smooth pair like pb and j.
Yayy another video! Hope you guys are doing well 😊
We're doing okay! Thank you for checking in with us! ❤
@@DoodleDate Glad to hear that 💛💙 I know you had a scare with someone trying to get into your place! Awful thing to happen, sending hugs
This is so good, I *LOVE* Cass Heart ☺☺
HUGE AGREE CHANTELLE
nothing better than coming home and cozying up with a doodle date video- it's crazy to think that I must have been watching you guys for 7 years like whaaa where does the time go! your videos have always been super comforting! :)
Love you guys. Thank you for beeing you. You are my inspiration ❤❤❤
Aww you are so welcome!! ❤
My favorite color is hot pink. When my grandson was little he loved pink also! We found out later he is color blind. So he actually saw pink as grey. Not a pink partner at all🤣🤣🤣
LOL oh my gosh barbara that's too relatable, the amount of time ive drawn guinea pigs and gave them grey lips instead of pink!
Woooohooooo!!!! Happy Sunday art friends!
We hope you're having a great Sunday, Colzo!!
@@DoodleDateit’s been a low spoon day so I painted a watercolour mermaid for mermay while watching this. Thanks for the company!
Also - I’m team slight texture but not as smooth as a hot press… somewhere in between Adamos and Stephs papers I think!
Before the Brexit I have ordered from CassArt including a acrylic gift set which came with a bag that say „Let s fill this town with artists“ but this paper size bag is way cooler
I love traditional media. Watercolor is my favorite because it is so chill to do. You have to take time, let layers dry, be surprised and such. I do love my procreate journey, but it feels like I need to get more done in the same time, still great for doodling on the go though.
I’m not a Green person but those swatches of Green are exactly what I have been looking for. 💙
My son uses pencils with grips so I will be getting those brushes with those grips. Thank you guys for another fantastic video 💙
Team Rugged for Watercolour. Team smooth for Gouache and Watercolour Pencil crayons!
Traditional artwork feels more satisfying to do. Just when you finish it's like I made this and it's physically in my hands. Also the pressure of not messing up or adapting with mistakes makes it more fun too.
It was great seeing you two paint again! Your videos in the past made me pick up watercolour when I was in college and I also worked with them again recently. It’s very calming using watercolour. I think it’s really cool to see cass art products as I’ve been in a physical store but never picked any supplies up so it’s really cool to see their products in use.
Thanks for another great video I’m glad you two seem safe after last week!
Yay I loved the video!! Both of your artworks are so cute!!!
Thank you so much Chloe!! :D
I WAS THERE FOR THE LIVE SWATCHING AHHHH
OH YEAHHH B)
@@DoodleDate My body has been in a doodle date video 😎
I think I have too much paint to justify buying more paint (jk there is never too much paint ever) but ooooo pretty colours!
I want that bag so bad. I might need to travel to a cass art and see if they have any left!
the bag is such a clever idea, we both love that thing so much LOL
Both of your drawings are amazing 😍
Thank you so much 😀
I use water activated paint with very little water on my brush. I like bold colours for my pieces!
YESSS though Adamo's would last a lifetime with just one set HAHA
Yay! I love watercolors!
Something about the warmer weather really makes me wanna use more watercolor again... after this video especially! Loved the painting, Sugimori is also a huge inspo to me in terms of watercolor!
Those paints look nice but for 40pound which is $80 where I live I’d rather buy a set of 48 pans from winsor and newton when their on sale since the set comes with a nice paint brush and in a plastic case which I prefer over the metal ones. Your guys pictures are amazing been watching doodle date for years.
omg I want one of those bags, perfect for artists!
This video is pure inspiration! Loved every second of it. This bag is amazing, never seen something like this before=3 Wishing you all a calm and cozy week=3
Wonderful artwork as always!
Thank you so much 😀
I love that tote bag!
Really enjoyed this video! You guys are amazing and always make my day. Thank you for such fun videos!
I loved the genuine reeves brush reference at the end lol 😂
Also you guys paintings both turned out so cool! ❤️
I discovered Cass Art recently, the bags are so cool but I just stuck with getting the inks I was looking for. Their delivery is more expensive than other sites I buy from so haven't been back. I love the little ceramic ghost, and the painting is adorable. 😊My son is on his way to York at the moment, he won't mind a being in a haunted city 😊
I love cass art supplies! I have a green artsy tote bag from them and i'm obsessed with it 😌 loved your piece adamo!
OK I'm ngl. that's one of the coolest bags I've ever seen. I hope I can find one online!
From what I've tried, Cass Art's own brand sable watercolour brushes are really great. Really smooth and silky. My nicest brushes since I don't splash on brushes and they were a good price. Their watercolour paper is also reliable and a great price, have a block of 50 that's lasted years. However, I bought a set of their basic acrylic paints because I wanted a simple set I could take to and from college and they are pretty awful. The primary red is like a dull tone which makes it impossible to get any bright reds, and the cyan is too bright and has a really synthetic look to the colour. The yellow is very synthetic looking too, but is more okay as a primary colour. The white is quite transparent, which was actually good for what I was using it for sometimes, but not good for reliability lol. I was quite let down because usually I have decent expectations for their own brand stuff. Love their shops though, and they do have really good sales, recently got some major bargains.
I love the Vlogs but it very cool to have a tradition old-school Doodle Date vid
UGH! Too much cool stuff in this video! I'm so envious I'm about to explode! The Patreon minecraft server was amazing though!
Love Cass Art (there's an actual shop here in Manchester). Coincidentally the watercolour set is currently £32 on special offer. Deal!
Chiltern Wove is a super cheap paper brand, but I've always thought the quality was okay. I mostly often see their products in The Works.
I recently bought some alcohol markers from Cass Art in a sale, and I'm pretty impressed with them. I've also been a fan of their heavyweight cartridge paper for a few years now.
Always love tuning into your vids. Watching you two do art is such a joyful experience. Steph, did you feel that it was easier to use the brushes with the padded handles?
I AM GLAD YALL ARE SAFE 💖💖💖💖 got real worried when y'all posted that someone tried to break in
Team rugged… badum tish 😂😂😂
Also I love love love love love that we got a video with watercolour pieces inspired by things w process filmed by the both of you ❤❤❤ no pressure i term of “you have to do this thing I like more” I just appreciate having this today ❤❤❤
Team thicc and rugged over here !
YES LILY, THE CORRECT ANSWER
Maybe Steph already knows- I haven’t finished watching - but you can get crochet hooks with similar grips to those brushes
TIME TO LOOK INTO THOSE OMG
I like multiple layers of “light wash” as you say But with water inks less layers cuz there more vibrant.
I enjoy my textured paper, so Team Rugged for me ❤
I have stopped buying discount paints. I found DaVinci Paints of California and they are a professional grade paint company and such reasonable prices and they even have sales too! I like them much better than Dan Smith, now no person needs ALL of the colors DS offers, but if your into that. I guess you got more money than most people! i am glad yo see you guys painting wit hwatercolrs as they are my favorite! See ya next video!
Omg I’m early for once, yay!!! love you guys!!! ❤
We love you too! have an awesome Sunday and enjoy the video! :D
On the subject of colorblindness- through your colorblind test video, I finally came to terms that I myself was colorblind (all the way back in 2017 lmao). I have tritanomaly, the second rarest type of colorblindness (mild blue-yellow)
i love that Steph didn't say Adam is colourblind, so they added it in post this time 😭
welp now i know i'm never going to york 😱👻
LOL i promise it's a beautiful place, its just very old so of course has a few ghost stories!
Ghosts ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍
Have you been home to the north recently Adam? I really hear your accent in this video and I never noticed it before!
I think that might just be Steph rubbing off on me HAHA
Fun! =)
❤❤❤
The Cass Art website says their wc are lightfast (wow!) and I’d rather they spent every dime on pigment rather than include a throwaway brush since everyone likes something different anyway. Ymmv. :)
For a minute i thought you were going to be swatching daler rowney watercolors. Haha😂
I love the name "Team Rugged" but personally for art I'm Team Smooth XD
Team rugged haha
Here in the United States that price point would be comparable to Paul Reubens.
That bag is extremely HYPE for me! 🎉🎉 Aaahhhh!
Oh! I thpught “oh thats sort of like a super Misty” and not knowing anything about Pokemon or things beyond Im very proud I recognised it kind of 😅😂❤🎉
