Thanks for sharing! I can see and hear the process & thx for comparing your carriers!!

@ArroLyfeArt Месяц назад

You’re welcome. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

@GingahSnapsArt 6 месяцев назад

I can relate to this struggle. One thing that's helped me is to Embrace The Fanny Pack 😂 it is a good way for me to limit how much I can carry

@ArroLyfeArt 6 месяцев назад

You know, the Fanny pack has come to mind for an on the go kit/case many times. I may just have to go find one and give it a try.

@marytesta3003 9 месяцев назад

I have the blue case and had rings put on for a strap as a cross body. I love it. I don't like to carry stuff. It's all in 1 bag and take it everywhere. I take filled waterbrushes. Thanks for your travel kit tour!

@ArroLyfeArt 8 месяцев назад

Thank you. I’m glad you liked it. I’m trying to find something that I can put everything in. Once I narrow things down a bit, I’ll have a better idea of what bag I may use.

@zoramay1493 Год назад

Really well thought through and well presented, too🎉 happy artsy journey 😊

@ArroLyfeArt Год назад

Thank you very much for your encouraging comment. Stay on the look out for my next video where I talk about post-vacation and which supplies were used and which weren’t. 😎😄

@gillinacook1477 11 месяцев назад

I had the same problem packing my art supplies to go to Alton Towers for the weekend. I chose the pencil case that you have actually. It was your second largest case you decided not to take on your trip. I hope your kit works out and hope mine does too. 😊

@ArroLyfeArt 11 месяцев назад

Thank you very much for your comment. It worked out pretty well in travel. I’m about to publish a post-travel video about those same supplies that I took and what I would take again. It’s a fluid sort of thing and always changing and adapting. Please let me know how yours turned out.

@marytesta3003 9 месяцев назад

I have that blue one also. I love it.

@libellula3313 9 месяцев назад

Really appreciated this vlog thanks. Downsizing to minimal is hard….especially my Daniel Smiths. Jo in France 🇫🇷

@ArroLyfeArt 9 месяцев назад

Hello from Texas! Thank you for your comment. It IS hard, but it is a work in progress. Little by little. Another thing that’s hard is when I get new supplies before a trip and I pack them just because they’re new and I want to try them out, not because I need them.

@emmahaslam1905 3 месяца назад

I'd go for a block of A5 paper or sketchbooklets and an A5 tin and try to fit magnetised paint pans , brushes , pen, pencil and sponge/ napkins inside . I'd hold them together with elastic and make a simple crossbody linen bag to pop them in. If my favourite brushes were slightly too long or I wanted more pens pencils or brushes I'd put them in a bamboo roll and pop that in beside them. The bag would be horizontal so your brushes could dry horizontally in the bamboo roll. You'd have a fine big mixing tray this way and you wouldn't need pockets or special travel brushes.

@ArroLyfeArt 3 месяца назад

That sounds like a pretty neat set up. Very efficient. I may have to look into that bamboo roll idea. Thank you for sharing.

I enjoyed this video very much! Thanks and have a great day! New sub! ♥️👏♥️

@ArroLyfeArt 7 месяцев назад

Thank you. I’ve always enjoyed watching these type of videos and was very excited to create my own. I’m very happy you liked it. Have a great day as well!

@alexmojica3486 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for sharing! I use a pretty similar pencil case to carry all my painting tools and it’s really interesting to see how you do it, now I want to make some updates!

@ArroLyfeArt 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for your comment. They have been a joy to try out and customize. I’m sure I’ll make another video with more updates to these sets and supplies.

@lizcharalambous9150 7 месяцев назад

Great video thanks for sharing. Seems like we all have the same problem! I always bring way too much stuff and try to remember what i used and what i missed when i return. Part of the fun tho! :)

@ArroLyfeArt 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. Oh absolutely! I’ve started customizing just about anything. I really enjoy it.

@brackalack1 7 месяцев назад

I have the same pencil case! I packed mine with an eraser, sharpener, a 12 watercolour tin (with extras obviously) some molotow acrylic paint pens, some fav ink tense pencils, a few neocolour 2 crayons and some normal drawing pencils. I've got a bic, fineliner, automatic pencil, jelly roll and a gold gel pen. I also have a small tin of art graf soluble graphite and a white art graf block too. Small spray bottle and some hankies and a water brush or two. Those cases hold an awesome amount. I also take some clips to hold the sketchbook open. Hope you enjoyed your trip, I definitely have travel brush envy after watching 😂

@ArroLyfeArt 7 месяцев назад

That sounds like a pretty well rounded travel set that you have there. I like the idea of the neocolour 2 crayons. I recently bought a 15 piece set to try them out. I’ll have to give them a try and see if I can add some to my travel gear.

@lynetteclauser3551 6 месяцев назад

I think you could shave further. You don’t need two sets of 6 & 8 water color, 2 mechanical pencils or 3 med. sized nib ink pens. You could fit that smaller black case with your water brushes & misc pens/pencils inside the blue/white one.

@ArroLyfeArt 6 месяцев назад

These are great tips. Thank you.

@alinatr2693 5 месяцев назад

I always think,,I'll pack just the essentials "and after that I think,,oh but what if..." and my pencil case gets thicker and thicker 😂

@ArroLyfeArt 5 месяцев назад

That’s me as well for sure. But I figure, if I have the room, what’s the harm, right?

@ciannacoleman5125 6 месяцев назад

I am only just getting back into doing art regularly and made an “everyday” essentials kit: a5 sketchbook, folio palette with 18 colors & extra mixing pans, 4 travel brushes, mechanical pencil (need to toss in an eraser), and a collapsable silicone water cup (I regularly break the “use two cups rule lol). I am going on a reading retreat next month and am considering if I want to add some pens or color pencils to the mix or stick with my basics. Decisions decisions lol.

@ArroLyfeArt 6 месяцев назад

That reading retreat sounds really exciting! I’m sure some extra pens or pencils wouldn’t hurt. 😆 Wow, listen to me, the enabler! lol. That’s a good idea, to have an established “everyday” bag. Let me know how that reading retreat and your art set packing goes.

@33Jenesis 7 месяцев назад

I started using the 2nd one you show. Last night I ordered 2 of your current case (different colors and makers). I also bought a slim profile one for sketching and doodling (no water involved).

@ArroLyfeArt 7 месяцев назад

They each have great uses for various trips and supplies. I hope you like them. Let me know how they turn out.

@sallyreff2574 6 месяцев назад

I have the same carry case. I'm thinking about stitching material on the back so I can slide on my belt.

@ArroLyfeArt 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. That’s a really good idea. Let me know how it works.

@izzyg8316 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much for sharing your setup. I'll be taking quite a few ideas from it. 👍 Question: would it be possible to fit a 4th row of half pans in there? The set you have is the 12 colors one, right?

@ArroLyfeArt 2 месяца назад

Hi there. Yes, it’s the Sakura Koi 12 color travel box. I took the plastic inset out and covered the bottom with packing tape-covered cardstock to make a flat base. Then put in my half pans using ZOTS adhesive dots to hold them down. I tried it and there IS room (where my brushes are now) for a fourth row to add another 7 half pans of colors. I hope you have a chance to try it out. It really is my favorite travel watercolor box.

@izzyg8316 2 месяца назад

@ArroLyfeArt That's quite ingenious! Thank you so much for sharing the DIY tips on how to modify this box to accommodate the half pans, I much appreciate it! I'm seriously amazed at the incredible expansion capability of this little box, truly. 28 half pans? In such compact size? That's insane. I'm just a bit sad they removed the finger ring on the back of the box. 😢 It can be so handy at times. As well as providing an extra layer of security to prevent the box from slipping off your hand. Still, I need to get my hands on one of these. Solid box overall. And it won't rust like the metal ones, haha!

@alinatr2693 5 месяцев назад

I love how Lamy is so loved by artists all around the world and in Germany pretty much every student learns to write cursive starting in first class with one of these fountain pens😂😂 I had a silver one with my name engraved but my sister broke it and now it leaks and I can't use it anymore😢

@ArroLyfeArt 5 месяцев назад

Heh, I’m sorry your pen was broken. I suppose it could be a nice display item now. They ARE neat pens. Those and TWSBIs.

@aumtheaum3827 9 месяцев назад

I take minimal but sometimes I wish I would bring more.

@ArroLyfeArt 9 месяцев назад

I still struggle with wanting to take more, but it’s a work in progress.

@ArroLyfeArt 9 месяцев назад

Thank you very much.

@maggiegregory8399 11 месяцев назад

I was wondering how you decided what inks to put in your ( fountain)pens And how to curate a limited palette?

@ArroLyfeArt 10 месяцев назад

I had the same question when I was researching various inks. I like doing urban sketching and other sketching with watercolor so I wanted waterproof ink for my borders and line drawing. My research led me to Platinum Carbon, Noodlers Bulletproof, and De Atramentis Document Inks. There are many inks out there, but I trust these three to be waterproof. As for a limited palette, the general suggestion is to start with the primary colors. Then, if possible, a warm and a cool of each color. I’m still perfecting my skill in this so I’ll make a video once’s I’ve gotten it down confidentially enough to publish. I hope this helps.

@aumtheaum3827 9 месяцев назад

Can you show some more of your work?

@ArroLyfeArt 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the request. I do have a few pieces that I think I’m really to show. I’ll do a video of them soon.
