I would love more instruction with watercolor pencils. This medium would be perfect for urban sketching. Please more videos on the watercolor pencils.

I LOVE watercolor pencils. They're my favorite medium. They're so much fun. My personal recommendation is Derwent Inktense. They're a little different than original watercolor pencils, they act a little more like ink. They layer easier as they don't reactivate on the paper once they've been wet once. And you can layer the shades. But that's a personal choice for my art style, it's not a quality thing. But I always found them so much fun to you. I hope you give wc pencils a try and that you love them! Whichever brand you choose.

6:58 The wood will soak water, too, and re-hydrate. Re-hydrated wood expands. So you put stress on the wood casing. When soaking the watercolor pencil lead do it in shallow water to avoid getting the wood casing soaking wet. or use a wet sponge or wet cloth to keep the stress for the wood casing minimal. When working with watercolors of any type having a wet cloth and or sponge in reach is always a good idea-

I was wondering about the effect on the wood, thank you 😊

@miklosnemeth8566 2 года назад

@@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts Life is too short, I soak exactly as demonstrated 6:20. I use my pencils daily, the wood has no enough time to misbehave, since my sharpener eats them before. :-) This is my preferred way of using Albrecht Dürer pencils, when I want vivid colors: there is brutal difference, if you use the wet/water-dipped pencil on wet paper or dry paper. On dry paper the pencil marks can never be removed, they are permanent and final, you can soften them but you cannot eliminate them, which is excellent for a number of cases. When you use wet pencil on we paper, however, you will have vivid colors and you can wash away the pigments completely. Something like what is shown at 9:03

Hi ,may I know if I can use them on a hard white board then erase them with wet 🧽 sponge

@divyabaranwal6619 Год назад

@@mohalmisri1230 about that it will be viped off if you will directly write and and just erase it but still the pigment of the colour will be spread over the board and gonna be a bit lightish colour of the pigment so I do not recommend it to use it on white boards 😊

@JPgreekgaming 6 месяцев назад

I have to say I find my ignorance astounding. I have underestimated colouring pencils all my life. You have completely changed my perception of colouring pencils and inspired me to give them ago, as i always wanted to start painting but found traditional oil based pigments intimidating.

@lisasallery7860 Год назад

A good alternative to washi tape (as it can be expensive for such a small amount), is masking tape! The tape you would use when painting your living room for example. Just remove some of the stickiness by putting it on your clothes and then lifting it back off. Now you can apply it to your paper

@57mobird Год назад

Great tip!

@samsong8355 Год назад

@casscamden740 maybe applying on clean table would be a good alternative?

@iknownothing-49 7 месяцев назад

@casscamden740It’s a tried and true method only used on the margins of the art work. I’ve never heard of or experienced fibers transferring to the white margins. But you could use a white tshirt or other fabric that won’t show. Masking tape is notorious for pulling up paper.

I love my Albrecht Durer wc pencils, which I started to use during the first lockdown. For the last 18 months I’ve been practicing all the techniques you have demonstrated and would like more tutorials. I have been attempting to recreate a frosty rural scene, with fields, hedges and trees but I’m struggling as it is so very different to a snow scene. I like misty scenes too, with or without frost. Thank you 🙏🏼

@miklosnemeth8566 2 года назад

That was an awesome tutorial, possibly the best intro on using watercolor pencils. I have Albrecht Dürer 24 set and 5:27 the only way to make the colors as vivid as you demonstrated on the watermelon example is with using the wet on wet trick which you explained later. Dry on dry with Albrecht Dürer never gives vivid enough colors not even when I add multiple dry on dry layers. But, immediately, when I wet the pencil tip and the paper, I get brutally great colors. I have the impression that Faber-Castell has designed these pencils to be used this way intentionally. 8:23 Wow, I love this. I haven't used it, great, thank You!
