Aw thank you so much Irit, everything you said I feel exactly the same!! 🤗 I love your tone on tone abstract at 2:15!! Also this reminds me I need to film my SEP faves... back to watching! :)

[kanamichelle]

Beautiful colors, Irit. I have been looking at Naples yellow red for quite awhile. Now I need it for sure. It is pretty, even just sitting in the palette, but it would be so lovely in any fall palette. I think Moonglow is my all time favorite color. It was one of the first DS colors I purchased.

Sometimes, when an art supply parcel arrives at the door my darling husband asks "Is that an Irit or an Alyona?" LOL... thank you for sharing... your enthusiasm for your art is contagious... I just want to go and play with my art supplies! take care...

[kendall]

Thank you Irit, between yourself and Alyona your inspiration for me is endless! If you ever felt like filming your sketchy rainbow (bright or muted!) abstracts that you showed us here in the beginning I’d certainly love to see the process. Thanks again and take care 🤗

[fuzzydragons]

your giggles and enthusiasm about the supplies just puts a big smile on my face 😀

[rachaelnarimalla]

New subscriber! :) Really enjoy listening to you talk about these fascinating colours and how you like to mix them. I would like to see more examples of where you use them in your paintings.

[julielondon]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful, helpful, and most satisfying review. Completely agree with you about Caran d’ache museum acquarelles.

Hi Irit, thank you for sharing your September faves. Such pretty colours and I think you are not fickle at all - it’s ok to change your mind especially as you grow into your medium and also as the seasons or trends change. Like all artist we are very visual. I’m definitely like that and a complete magpie... ooh a new colour over here! And another... wait there’s this other one I now like... that’s me with paints, crafts and flowers too. I even saw one of my abstract flower arrangers using pampas grass! Oh my so 70’s - but also so on trend. I hated wearing the clothes as a child (a really tiny child!) and the wallpaper 😱 but as an adult I can really appreciate some of the wild combinations and especially the graphics... so I think it’s ok to change and change again. Love the fact that DS Quin Gold💕 made a comeback - it’s so useful for those golden late summer yellows - one of my faves and I don’t like yellow but have quite a few! 😉 Huge hugs, 🌈🎨 Valérie xx

So lovely Irit! You’re not fickle you’re evolving + fun to mix things up. This is a beautiful palette. I’m excited bc I have some of these colors and some good dupes so I can paint along. I picked up 2 Caran D’ache pencils and they remind me of gouache. Pigmentation is unreal. Love your Derwent yellow ochre pencil and the graphite. Great that you found the gelli pens to match. So pretty. Thanks so much for sharing your favorite things. I’m inspired!✊🏾💕

I have become a big fan of Caran d’Ache products, well the Supracolor watercolor pencils and the Neocolor2 water soluble pastels. It’s not your imagination that they’re great because they’re expensive. They’re just great! I bought a 12 color set of their Supracolor (they were called Supracolor 2 then) water soluble color pencils years ago and didn’t really use them. I finally brought them back out in the recent past and was so impressed by their quality. I have also come to use and love the Neocolor 2 water soluble pastels. Really lovely! I’m sure the Museum Aquarelle pencils, a step above the Supracolor, are really fantastic and a joy to use. Thanks!

[AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

That Lunar Earth is super beautiful, on its own and when mixing! So happy you introduced me to it and that Hematite. I think the other week I ordered that Dusk Yellow and quite a few more by Rembrandt, speaking of enabling... 🤣

[showandtellmeg]

I love that you've added the Derivan and Art Graf graphite. Im having a major graphite tinting moment and i use the Daniel Smith Graphite Gray just because its cheaper here per tube. I love muting down bright colors and getting the fantastic granulation :) im excited to see how you use it this fall. I can always use ideas.

[royalfutura]

Have you tried the Roman Szmal Naples Yellow Reddish? It's not a color I used a lot previously but I have been playing with it lately and the mixes it creates are stunning! So soft and smokey. I'm obsessed.

Love your happy laugh and expressive hands as always. ♡

[maggiemae]

Soooo beautiful. I watched the collab video and both of you have inspired me with different colors.

[jenniferweisinger]

I agree - the Caran Dache are superior, much like the polychromos are the tops in smooth colored pencils.

[MyCatIsActuallyABalrog]

Oooh so many yummy earth tones. I love those Derwent drawing pencils, they’re so rich. Also, I say hooray for being fickle, it means trying out new art supplies 😀👍 Tfs

[katejanes]

You have found your way away from your bright rainbow (always) colors into the neutral heaven that I always adore. These colors are all the colors that I gravitate to constantly! So now anytime you happen to find something I don't have, I NEED it!! 😂🤷‍♀️🙈I also wanted to ask you (in case I missed it..) I believe you had mention a brush set you had purchased and planned to share in a favorites video..you had been using a large flat brush from the set (maybe some Italian set?? but definitely well before the trip..).. did I miss it? Did you ever share what it was?? So curious!!

[ChrissieNicely]

Hi Irit,
Thank goodness, I already have a lot of those items you introduced! Haha!! 😅🤤🧡
I loved those glimpses of the abstracts you showed! I look forward to seeing more of those! 😍🥰🧡
By the way,  Derwent Cumberland Pencil Company is British not Australian. 😉
Thanks for always inspiring us!🥰😍🧡❤

[theonethatgotaway]

new favorites ... wait a second I need to get my wallet out so I can buy everything you mention ... thanks for sharing, love the format you did it in and it's so relaxing to hear you talk about your love for color!

[ilustralilian_]

No. I love my Albrecht Dürer but the Museum Aquarelle are magic. And I really don’t like the Supracolor ones.
