Art Supplies Haul & Swatching! ✶ The one in which I'm traumatised by a pencil sharpener...

Update on the pencil sharpener: I've emailed Jackson's Art and I'm now waiting for a response. I asked Dominic to try using the sharpener too, and he had the same issue. It hacks and tears every pencil to shreds rather than sharpening it. We watched a YouTube video on the sharpener, and it turns out that we were actually using it correctly, so my guess is that I have a faulty one.

This is a mega long video! It's full of gorgeous art supplies but I don't mind if you want to skip through it a bit or put it on in the background while you work etc. I didn't mean for it to be this long and I'll probably never upload a video to YouTube that's this long ever again (don't even ask how long it took on our awful internet connection!). ;) My favourite part is the swatching and testing of the art materials. This starts at around 13:30 if you're more interested in that part, although I do show and tell you quite a bit about the art materials beforehand, and go through the prices etc. Included in this art haul are: Holbein Acryla Gouache paints, Caran d'Ache Luminance pencils, Neocolor 1 crayons, KUM Masterpiece pencil sharpener (*cough*), Faber-Castell Pitt Artist brush pens, Posca paint pens, Royal Talens Art Creation sketchbooks, and various papers. I hope you enjoy it!
