I have a friend who uses a cane and she said that the one she has now, with a bottom that looks like a little tiny 4 legged table is so much nicer than using a regular walking stick. When she tried to use a regular one, she said it would always slide out from under her/slip away instead of supporting her. Just wanted to pass it along because of Steph's recent sharing of the stick in case it could help anyone looking into mobility aids!

My hobbycraft has little tins and up to 48 and I’d love to see what you think of them! They weren’t too expensive. I have fancy Paul Reuben’s ones so I didn’t buy any but I think it’d be cool to try!

I do digital when I want to tryhard and make everything perfect, everything is just the way I wanted. With traditional art there are so many things you can't control and you can't erase everything so if you let go of perfectionism and experiment a little, you can achieve really nice effects that you didn't expect! Also the feeling of putting down paint on paper/canvas is just soo relaxing.

For traditional vs digital, I find traditional more calming because of the feel pencils, markers, and brushes. There’s something about that interaction that takes me to another place. I also find it easier to problem solve or figure out techniques traditionally because of that physical interaction. As for smooth vs rugged for watercolours, I’m team rugged. I love seeing the paper texture for watercolour. In the middle for coloured pencils, a balanced amount of texture and smooth. Markers and smooth pair like pb and j.

To be fair…I really, really disliked it, but then I use a lot of water and wet-in-wet techniques in my watercolour painting, whereas Adam works in a much less soggy way than I do. It’s good to see that it’s useful for other artists, even though I didn’t enjoy it. Both Adam and Steph’s paintings look awesome as usual!

From what I've tried, Cass Art's own brand sable watercolour brushes are really great. Really smooth and silky. My nicest brushes since I don't splash on brushes and they were a good price. Their watercolour paper is also reliable and a great price, have a block of 50 that's lasted years. However, I bought a set of their basic acrylic paints because I wanted a simple set I could take to and from college and they are pretty awful. The primary red is like a dull tone which makes it impossible to get any bright reds, and the cyan is too bright and has a really synthetic look to the colour. The yellow is very synthetic looking too, but is more okay as a primary colour. The white is quite transparent, which was actually good for what I was using it for sometimes, but not good for reliability lol. I was quite let down because usually I have decent expectations for their own brand stuff. Love their shops though, and they do have really good sales, recently got some major bargains.

Chiltern Wove is a super cheap paper brand, but I've always thought the quality was okay. I mostly often see their products in The Works. I recently bought some alcohol markers from Cass Art in a sale, and I'm pretty impressed with them. I've also been a fan of their heavyweight cartridge paper for a few years now.
