I've had my current Neocolors for at LEAST 12 years and decided to treat myself to a new batch of Is and IIs! In this video, I'll show you the difference between the two types of crayons, how to use each, and how I like to pair them with a sketchbook and take a tiny art studio with me wherever I go.

I’ve wanted to know the difference between 1’s and 2’s for so long. Thank you for explaining and showing us how they work! Love how free your sketching is. After putting off buying these for years I’m now inspired to go and get them! Many thanks!

Hi Jackie … the newer red boxes always come with a set of clear stickers so you can mark the box I or II…

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

Oooooh, so that’s what the stickers are for! Lol far makes sense 😆😆😆

I bought Inktense Blocks about five years ago and I still have my original set! Derwent makes these and pencils a'plenty. A very smart investment. 😊

Impressive! Those Inktense Blocks are keepers for sure. Enjoy creating! 🖌️😊

I used my friends inktense pencils and they were great. I want all the art supplies. We all feel this way right?? 😂

nice scribble!! i started my neocolor ii collection with that same set of 15. i have at least twice as many now, by getting individual crayons in open stock (Blick). i don't have any neocolor i's because i like *everything* to move with water! :) if you ever buy single crayons..., chinese green, saffron and jade are some of my favorite colors. thanks as always for all the inspiration.

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

Oooh, thanks! I’ll look those colors up! I do buy singles sometimes, but usually just black and white since I go through them so quickly 🤣

I love neo 2’s.. so easy to use, smooth and love that I can draw and paint all at the same time

Awesome choice! 🎨✨ Neo 2's are a game-changer, right? 🙌

Hi Jackie, this has inspired me to get out my neocolors 1 & 2 and play! And to make a little travel kit which will make it easier to throw in my bag whenever I want.

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

Love your idea, Tina! 🖌️ Neocolors make spontaneity stylish! Have fun creating your travel kit!

@shaunnalyons4436 Ай бұрын

Oh the colors. I have a few caryon d’ache neo color crayons and I love them. I recently bought crayons and it was kind disappointing because they just don’t have the pigment load. Super fun and relaxing to watch you unbox. Thank you. 😊

The crayon struggle is real! 😅🖍️ Glad you enjoyed the unboxing!

Hi Jackie! I also just bought these! Take a look at the clear stickers that came in the box. They are meant to stick on the front of the can box to show neocolor I OR II 😃 Love your videos! Love from Denmark

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

Haha! Thanks - I figured it out 🤣 LOVING the simple clear stickers and my shiny new crayons. Hope you’re loving yours too! ❤️

@DrummerGrrrl Ай бұрын

You could use acrylic paint and then use Crayola crayons as a resist...cool textures and ideas. I learned the crayon resist technique from Dan Tirels.

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

Thanks for the tip! Can’t wait to try it out myself. 🌟🖌️

@shaunnalyons4436 Ай бұрын

Thats why I bought some. I’m still not sure I know what I’m doing with the resist part. I’ll look for videos. Thanks. 😊

Hi, Jackie I am so much of a homebody I haven't done much with travel art materials, but I think I prefer a pocket size water color set, water brushes and a black pen. I do have Neocolor II's and love them, but it wouldn't be long before I found a melted mess if I tried the outdoor thing. I loved listening to the kid noises as a background in this video. Perfect for the video. Nancy

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

lol I can relate to the homebody part, for SURE! Sometimes it’s just nice to have them handy even if I arrive early to an appointment or have to go to the DMV 😆❤️❤️❤️

Great video. I’ve started carrying a 4x4 sketchbook & a pencil case around with me just this month which is a great tool. I love my Caren d’ache II neopastal crayons Great idea and it will make waaiting for appointments etc. much easier. Thanks.

Fun, Jackie. Thanks for the video. The Neocolor IIs are also available singly at our local art store, so that might be an avenue for folks who want to try them without buying the set. Just buy the three primary colors and three secondary colors. Not sure if the Neo Is are available singly.

Great point! Both I and II are available as singles at Blick! ❤️

interesting video, neocolors crayons are not too expensive, all art supplies are expensive --watercolor tubes 10 bucks each, I used to paint in watercolors, they all dried out and i have to be careful to open them to use them again, we have to pay price for the pleasure

@jackieschomburgart Ай бұрын

You said it! 🎨 The cost of art supplies is a small price for the joy they bring! 😊

@DrummerGrrrl Ай бұрын

Also, comparison shopping is important here. At least in the United States, one can compare prices from Blick, Jerry's Artarama (silly name!), Cheap Joe's Art Supplies, Amazon. etc .
