So I’ve been getting Sketchbox since 2018. I LOVE IT. With something like this you have to be in a place where you are open to any and all mediums. There have been boxes that haven’t been my favorite for various reasons. When I finally decided to give this a chance I decided that it was time for me to go on an adventure of exploring ALL mediums. Even if it’s something that I don’t care for. Look at it in a new way. Teach yourself a new way to look at it. If you are going to look at it in a negative way then build your own version is what you should be doing. It’s so sad that people sign up for this knowing it’s a surprise each month and still feel the need to come on here and bitch about it like it was a total surprise. How could they dare put green paper in there. Sorry for the rant. It just gets me when people complain about what is in the box. Find a way to make it work for you or go do the build your own box.

Fun box this month! Thank you for the heads dead. When done with the tin, I think I'm going to make a travel watercolor case with some magnet backed half pans.

Sadly, I pretty much have everything in this box already :( I do think Sketchbox is really nice for a beginner.... would be interested in a box for someone who's been "at it" for a couple years ;)

My first Sketchbox… like the pencils but got to say I don’t care for the green paper. A bit of a let down.
@SketchBoxSubscription4 күн бұрын
Try to view it as a creative challenge, which we feel is how to grow as an artist. However, if you want to start with a true white paper we've got plenty of more traditional options over at shopSketch.com!

No it's not a creative challenge. It's very uninspiring and I regret paying for this box.

Oh wow I’m really excited to crack this open! That green paper is something I never would have chosen for cp! Inks? Sure. But this combo will be 🤯🤩🥳 Thanks for curating such consistently great sets❤

Rather than picking a project and selecting supplies to match, Sketchbox find a bunch of mismatched supplies and tries to put them together resulting in drawings that don’t even look like the reference.

Can we have a video specifically about using the masking glue? I totally tore my painting doing that and the paper was really impacted.
@SketchBoxSubscription8 күн бұрын
Make sure it's dried fully and remove it slowly by slowing rolling your finger. If a corner of it comes up - don't be tempted to pull at it! Keep rolling your finger from different angles to let it come off the page in smaller pieces - or if you have an eraser (preferably kneaded) you can do the same with it. We'd love to do a video all about it - but we're a small team and can't do everything we'd want to. We did our best to cover it in this video so we appreciate your feedback and it will help us to create future videos.

Not me buying the Cotman 24 pack last week. 😅 This video did make me realize I missed a couple while swatching, though! And the Sap Green isn’t in the 24 pack, so that’s pretty exciting!

I also just bought masking fluid. 😅 But I have to use latex free due to allergies, so I guess that one isn’t a big deal. At least that’s a good fine liner lol

Thought I would give you guys a shot over the summer and just got this as my first box... 😬 I didn't know I would be disappointed... but, yeah, the whole family is pretty disappointed. It's summer! Where are the colors?! This might have gone better over the winter, but for our family of 4 artists, it was a big miss today. I committed to 3 boxes, so hopefully, the next box will have something interesting🤞
@SketchBoxSubscription2 ай бұрын
Thanks so much for your very kind feedback. As a family of four artists, I'm surprised charcoal isn't one of your favorites - typically our traditional artists gravitate to it more than other mediums we ship. I do however have GREAT NEWS for ya - next month is full of color (a whole 12 set in our premium box) so you wont be so disappointed. Also the month before had a ton of color, you might want to get on our email and sms lists to see spoilers of our boxes so you don't run the risk of getting something you don't like.
@Tas-qt1xmАй бұрын
Haha the first thing I said to my husband when I opened it was "but it's finally summer I don't wanna do black and white!" Canadian winters are loong and I'm craving color/bright. I do like working in charcoal normally, but it's funny I had the same initial reaction .

Not really a fan of charcoal, but that probably because I haven't spent enough time with it and it's kind of messy. This box might help me to appreciate them more.
