🎨 New video just dropped!
I’m testing out the Caran d’Ache NeoArt sticks – they look fun and colorful, but are they actually worth adding to your art supplies… or just something you’ll regret buying?

👉 Watch my honest review here:

I’ll show you swatches, layering tests, how they compare to Neocolor II, and whether I’d recommend them.
Can’t wait to hear what you think – are you team Worth It or Skip It? 💬

Very soon my 2024 favorites video will be up, but I thought I would also share a couple of mini reviews of some supplies I recently got, so I still cannot say if they will be yearly faves, but I've been loving them so far!
My #1 current favorite (that I just recently got so it cannot be included in the yearly faves) is the Shinhan gouache set B. When it comes to quality, I think they are as good as any other I've tried. What's so great about them? The formula. I've kept them in an airtight palette from Mijello and they are so juicy and easy to use, more than any brand I've tried to date (that includes Winsor & Newton, Holbein, Daniel Smith, Schmincke...).
Another recent purchase that I am loving are the Mungyo gallery oil pastels. Super fun, love them!!
