Review -NicPro Pastel Paintbrush Set
My paintbrushes are ancient. Beloved and taken care of as if they’re prized pets, but freaking ancient. I’ve had most of them since high school, with just the odd new brush purchased here and there. And though some just keep getting better with age, others are… Well. Falling apart. Then there’s also the collection I…

Review – Ohuhu Acrylic Paint Markers
My love of Ohuhu products is no secret. And, just to get it out of the way, this isn’t a sponsored post, but hoo boy, would I jump for joy if Ohuhu ever decided to sponsor me! I thought the alcohol markers would be the pinnacle of my artistic joy (I’ve bought two more sets…

Review – Ohuhu Oahu Alcohol Markers
I’ve never worked with alcohol markers before, and I now know what I’ve been missing. All I can say is that this has become my instant favourite medium. Alcohol markers are so versatile. You can achieve anything from dreamy watercolour-like textures to graphic block shading without effort. But okay, I’m getting ahead of myself. This…

Review – Ohuhu Colour Markers
The artists in my house are avid Jazza fans. So, when he made (another) video about Ohuhu VS Copic markers, my daughter and I just knew we had to try this brand. She purchased a 100-piece set of brush/fine-tipped markers, while I got the alcohol markers. Today, we’ll talk about the 100-piece water-based markers, and…

My First Time Using a Silk Screen on Clay
I’ve been sitting on this post for months, but I figure it’s time to let her rip and share my thoughts with you. I picked up a Boho Screen Printing Kit by Craft Smart from my local Michaels for $14.99 (prices are subject to change, and this is not a sponsored post). The kit includes…

Updated Review – Tooli-Art Acrylic Paint Pens
It’s been a year and a half since I published my first impressions on my brand-new Tooli-Art paint pens. Initially, I used the pens daily, but my artmaking pursuits shifted gears to crochet and clay craft, and my paint pens remained undisturbed in their dark drawers for a few months. Then, around July this year,…

Let’s Make – Resin Leaf Charms
My husband is an avid woodworker. He’s always either working on a project or watching woodworking videos on YouTube. This, of course, means I’m also watching, if only from the corner of my eye. And now I find myself obsessed with wood-and-resin furniture. Thanks, Black Forest Wood Co. 😂 I can’t be trusted around power…

My First Experience with a Silicone Clay Mould
I’ve had a few of these on my wish list for quite some time, so I’m stoked to have received a silicone mould (mold in the US) as a part of my birthday haul. On that note, my husband had the really awesome idea to bring me to Michaels and let me pick out all…

First Impressions: Mont Marte Metallic Acrylic Colour
Basically all of my recent paintings feature at least one metallic element. I’m in love with these little pops of brightness in my work and I was curious to see how colours other than gold, silver, and copper would look. But I didn’t want to buy a full-sized tube of each colour before I know…

Review – Tooli-Art Acrylic Paint Pens
It’s been a hot minute since I last did an art supply review, so I figured my new paint pens would be the perfect transition back into this kind of post. Before we officially begin, I’d just like to say this isn’t a sponsored post. All products mentioned below were purchased by me or my…
