Hey guys! I don't think I've been more excited to share a video with you than I am now!
Join me as I pack a little travel art kit and head off to Margate beach for my first plein air painting trip! In this video I talk a bit about the supplies I decided to take with me and what I learned from my first time painting from life outside. I cant wait to take you on this adventure and see what you think!

I clicked on your video because I'm always curious what people put in their travel art kits. I also bought one of those wonderful Lihit lab cases. Mine is a beautiful olivey green and much thinner than yours, cause I wanted to be able to keep it in my purse all the time. I just love it. I found a great YT video from a while back where some smart person used an empty clamshell that a set of a dozen Tim Holtz gears came in to construct a watercolor palette. It is the neatest thing. The little indentions hold a surprising amount of artist's grade tube paints, and because it is only about 1/4' thick and weighs pretty much nothing, I can get an amazing amount of other supplies in my little case. I really enjoyed getting a glimpse of Margate Beach. I grew up very close to the Gulf of Mexico, and spent a lot of time at the beach growing up. It's been quite a while since I've been to the shore, and I especially liked your little gull friend! I was #986 subscriber. Congrats, you should be at 1000 subscribers any day!

Hi Amber, I really hope you continue this series. Plein air on the beach has to probably be, one of the most relaxing things to do. 🏖

It really was a revitalising day and I can’t wait to go and do it again! 😍 I won’t have to push myself so hard to leave home next time as I actually did really enjoy it 😆x

What a fun video! I just found your channel and and subscribed. I agree about perspective... learn the rules... then break them if it makes you joyful while you paint! I'm in a experimental phase lately, deliberately breaking most of the rules I learned about painting, and it's been liberating, joyful, and best of all not stressful! I love the wonky work I do now!

Thank you so much for joining me! 🥰 glad to hear you are going through your experimental phase too. I have been trying to ‘un learn’ all the rules I learned about art from my coloured pencil realism days for a while now and still on that journey struggling to let go of details 😂 But the unpredictability and excitement of my work now makes me happy every single day! Unless everything goes wrong, then of course I want to smash it all up 🙈🤣

No need to snap those Neocolors! The water soluble Swisscolor crayons are from the same manufacturer and perform identically to Neocolors. They're shorter than Neocolors, so they're essentially pre-snapped for you. The color range is somewhat smaller, but I they'd be right up your alley. If you'd like to see them compared to Neocolor II, check out Frugal Crafter's video from earlier this week.

@Little_Ammy_Arts Ай бұрын

Awesome thanks for the recommendation! I also love the frugal crafters videos so I’ll take a look! But I do have this Neocolor collection that will probably last me a lifetime, I’m not sure if I need more water soluble crayons…. Or maybe I do 🙈😆

This is so exciting! I am planning to do this next weekend by the river! I order myself a little kit and hopefully it’ll arrive in time 😅 your work is so wonderful 🫶🏻

That came out great! Beautiful beach too, and how cool that the sea gull was watching you!

@Little_Ammy_Arts Ай бұрын

Thank you so much! I know wasn’t it cute, I’m sure the sea gull was just waiting for any snacks I might drop but still cute! 😄🩵

@gloriajewelart Ай бұрын

LOVED that u include the packing of your art kit that’s also my favorite spot when going out to paint plein air ❤

@Little_Ammy_Arts Ай бұрын

Aww really! It’s a beautiful beach isn’t it, especially in summer I’d love to go there again soon 😍 and I’m glad you enjoyed the packing of the art kit! I always enjoy that part way too much I had to include it 😂

@gloriajewelart Ай бұрын

seagull friend is most likely trying to learn how to paint like you!! maybe he goes on to arrange rocks & twigs in an artistic fashion 🐦 🥺

@Little_Ammy_Arts Ай бұрын

Oh can you imagine how cute that would be 🥹 showing all his little seagull friends!! Next time I go there will be seagull graffiti all over the walls 😂

@Little_Ammy_Arts Ай бұрын

Always appreciate it Helen 😘 Thank you for watching! I love my water brush and I think I will snap the Neocolors… or at least a few of them 🙈 still scary!! I’d like to tackle some buildings and make them all wonky and stuff. Watch this space 😉

I am taking snapped neocolors out with me today. It doesn't hurt them a bit and the color is just as vibrant. You have inspired me! Thank you for sharing your process. Best wishes from South Carolina!

Next time I go out I am definitely snapping a few colours! I like that you have lots of different edges to work with when you snap them too! I hope you had a lovely out creating yesterday! Thank you so much for watching my video ☺️ - Amber xx
