okay i think we are good to go now hi guys sorry wonderful way to start a live stream oh my goodness hello everyone uh let's see so we have melissa sonnet carmen um cor corbry is that how i say it yvonne deb uh erica hi guys hello um yeah for some reason the app was stuck in portrait mode and it would not switch hi christy hi melinda ruthie um jped so yeah sorry guys thanks for the patience it was um always fun gotta love technology [Laughter] but it was just oh it's tammy okay i'll call you tammy i'll add that to my little notepad i got here i always try to remember people's names i do my best uh sometimes i lose the notepad and then we're kind of screwed no matter what but do my best all right so i'll wait a minute for everyone to catch us again um now that we're in landscape mode like i wanted so i swear technology is not with me this week i have had filming problems and everything oh my oh my and it's really zoomed in lovely let's see yvonne you have trouble when you're watching a lot of streams in a single day well for some reason mine just would not switch out a portrait on the app um like if you're streaming straight from the app it's kind of annoying anyways you have to set it up in landscape but it would not swap no matter how many times i reset it so i was just like okay i'm gonna have to make i'll pop in say hi and then be like okay i gotta go make a new one everyone follow me so whoo let's see who's coming in um oh hi emily elizabeth yes the tech gremlins have been after us oh my goodness oh hi jennifer welcome thank you all for following me along on youtube and catching up to me [Laughter] if i missed anyone i'm sorry um hi ashley what's funny is i was actually gonna pop in early because ashley finished early but i couldn't get the app to work so i was like wow i was sitting here like fiddling it with it for like 15 minutes like okay this is dumb all right so since we're already past 11 i'll get started coloring everyone can join as they come in yes renee i i fixed it the app i was about to swap over to my webcam and then i'm like you know what i'm gonna try just remaking it and here we are all right so yes welcome to julia in july the colorathon uh this is the image i will be doing it's called the tropical fairy super cute um it is super zoomed in but you know what tech is not on my side today so i'm not gonna screw with it let's just let it be because for all i know it's gonna come back and bite me okay so we're doing something a little fun with mine um i had not picked a color palette like i was actually sitting there like i have no idea what colors i want to do so amazon tammy during her live stream yesterday morning was like okay here's your color palette and she literally pulled three random things off her desk and one was pink one was turquoise and one was tan and i was like you know what i'm gonna take that challenge and i'm gonna use that as my color palette so this color palette is literally me winging it inspired by tammy it's it's kind of funny um but the colors actually go together really well so if i wasn't super zoomed in i could probably show you better but i've already swatched out we're gonna have some fun so let me get color in um i do have my lovely mods that'll remind me because there is a giveaway um so erica just has to yell at me and then we'll do a giveaway about halfway through and then yeah we'll just go from there all right let me see what color do i want to start with i think it's different parrot yeah all right so has everyone been enjoying the colorathon oh hi mona i'm gonna try and look up at chat but um i'm so bad i'll get like in the coloring zone and be like oh right chat and yes i'm using prismacolors are you surprised by that at all oh evelyn hello evelyn renee nope can't do a picture without my prisma babies i need my prismas no i don't want that there i want that here so julia has books on amazon i'll admit i've never bought them but they are really cute but her etsy is super adorable um i think she was having a sale but i'm pretty sure that ended yesterday if i said holbein that's so funny that's what i'm gonna be like forever associated with his whole mind now the girl that does not love the whole binds oh thanks jennifer got my nails done for our stream actually i got them done just because it was time to get them done but perfect timing oh is the sale still going okay perfect emily you don't have hole binds what you don't have holbeins i figured you would have oh miss your nails like if you guys go back and look at my videos during covid when everything was shut down and i was like trying to diy my nails that was a scary sight i'm not gonna lie to you i just stuck with glitter nail polish because it wouldn't chip like in two hours after i applied it um but that was like pretty much it oh the super colors those are actually on my list um i want to get those because erica over there at elm colors uses them a lot so now i'm like oh i want those but first i need to buy the pablo's this color combo looked so much cuter on tantone paper oh let's see you'd like to get the small pastel set i actually don't mind the pastels on holbeins um believe it or not um and like i said i'm still gonna use my whole binds and try to master those things i cannot be defeated by a pencil i refuse but there's a lot of people that do amazing stuff with holbeins they're just not for me yes i do want the pablo's those are what i'll get next super colors or supra colors are on that list as well yes renee used them on hers is that really peacock i feel like i used aqua in that one hmm whatever we're gonna roll with it oh hi tiffany i didn't see it pop in did i say hi to beth i don't know if i did and marilyn hi marilyn trying to see everyone if i miss you it's not because i'm ignoring you i promise yes thank goodness there's multiple pencils out there could you imagine if there was just one brand and that was it we're so spoiled there's so many to choose from like if i had only one brand of pencil well i hope it would be prisma otherwise i'd be like no no the world cannot go on let's see you don't need oh with my alphabet challenge oh jennifer you even did the math on that well technically pablo's are karan dash so that's a c so in you know two months from now i technically could use those so same thing with super colors they're koran dash oh i started with this flower i really want to color her hair and wings but whatever i'm starting over here i guess i do have time to save sorta ish like i said karan dash is a c so let me just drop that and hurt everyone's ears i want all the things to every every little thing out there all right like a smart person i'm gonna start up here so i don't just rub my hand across my freaking prismacolors teach you guys bad habits and all oh hi emma oh and color me happy that's amy i had to look at the little thumbnail for a second say it right sorry um hi elma i i forget i forget my place what's bad is now i say the alma like subconscious er like i don't think about it it's just subconscious now i say elma and i'm not even doing it on purpose to tease it's just how it comes out so hi kristin welcome yes forever erica and oh my gosh i almost said elma erica and emma will always be el messi i can't even like can't even say it now purple warrior color channel what's your or what can we call you i know you were in someone else's stream and they called you something i always feel bad when i don't know the names or when i say people's youtube name wrong i'm like sorry oh my goodness that chat is moving fast i'll just trust a model yell at me if i miss something oh ezra is that how you say it azra that's really pretty very pretty sorry if my fat hand is in the way i gotta remember i'm filming okay oh what color was it gonna do that flower in i think it's gonna be pink if not it's gonna be pink now by the way if i go off frame someone yell at me because it's all zoomed in today so i'm like oops it's weird that's like a branch or something i don't know what that is it's gonna be part of the flower now hi shell welcome i need to move my tablet so i can actually see so i'm going to slide this over there we go now i can actually see the chat a little better just glad you guys all found the right thumbnail since youtube did not want me to stream this morning hopefully the lighting is okay i kind of rely heavily on the natural light and it is overcast today got a whole bunch working against me today let's see did i say hi to brandy if i did well i'm saying hi twice hi brandi what pencils am i using i am using my prismacolors because they are like a warm fuzzy blanket that i just love to use all the time oops my tablet hit it and also make sure you guys are in the live chat that way when we do the giveaway about an hour in you guys are actually commenting when you should comment so always use the live chat yes shell this image is so freaking cute i love this one called tropical fairy how is my camera zooming in and out too oh my gosh technology is not with me today guys we're gonna have one of those streams today sure let's do that during a colorathon not restart or restarting the camera so we're just gonna have to deal with it today i'll just try to keep my hand out of the way so it doesn't keep focusing on it yeah the autofocus what's weird is it normally oh there we go that's what i get for touching it sorry guys let me just make you really dizzy right now it won't zoom out for some reason so yeah just uh i'll keep my hand in the corner here so it doesn't focus on my my hand my gosh this is almost like the first time i streamed i think i restarted the first stream ever like three times four times i deleted them like no one watched that please it's like we're going down memory lane today yeah cream is like my go-to color i swear i use it for like everything with my prismacolors i blend it into leaves and greens and pinks and purples it just works with everything i buy them in 12 count because i use cream so much [Laughter] oh my gosh shell yes if anyone understands tech issues michelle does [Laughter] oh show i like had my cute thumbnail and everything for this one though and now i can't even use it i'll have to go back and add it uh post stream but i got autofocus going on all right this is this is live and what happens when you're live oh hi jane welcome one thank you thank you thank you oh is debbie here oh hi debbie go ahead and eat i should have eaten i was like hey ashley finished i'm gonna hop on early and then my youtube app was like no you're not you're not even gonna use the the one you had planned youtube had other plans pretty much and yes i'm going to spend like 20 minutes on a single flower okay let's do this image is so funny though because it just kind of all just pops out of nowhere see these are just hanging i'll have to figure out a good background oh thanks brandy i was going for dots i don't know why it just felt like a dot moment like there's zero reason behind half the designs on my nails but the only time i get seasonal is christmas but it's more winter and not like christmas nails they don't polka dots are always cool i agree oh renee is doing uh corner part two i still need to watch corner part one i'm so behind on videos this week was very busy and then all of a sudden i was like wow that's a that's a big cue i got to watch and then all weekend when i would normally catch up on everyone's videos i was watching all the lives so got some catching up to do yeah i usually binge watch on the weekends just there in color and watch youtube probably not the healthiest habit but whatever yeah let me just go out of the lines oh thank you a view is a view yes i probably will use pan pastels or my gelatos for the background um [Music] i kind of want a really green background and i don't have a ton of green pen pastels so more likely than not it'll be my gelatos or watercolors i don't know we shall see where this goes i mean it was a miracle i even had a palette picked out because normally i fly by the seat of my pants most of you guys know that by now um i'm like yeah you know what i think i'll start with this color and we'll just see where that goes okay i really want to color her wings so we're just gonna do that oh my king art yes i need to try first thing is swatch my king art then i might use those hopefully it's not auto focusing and if it is i'm sorry and if anyone's curious my secret to coloring wings is to literally just wing it no pun intended i just color it random i'm like you know what purple looks good here pink looks good there let's just throw some blue there like i zero like zero technique here let's see oh hi audrey welcome amazon ships faster than i watch goodness uh let's see um jane yes i have done inktense on a background it's been a while i usually go with my watercolors and whatnot but i have used inktense on a background no i kind of want to use those gelatos i bought forever ago they're just sitting there collecting dust they're so lonely see she's got wings behind her too now normally i outline wings in white but um prismacolor and my white gel pens don't get along so that'll be off camera cause i gotta spray it with a fixative they won't grip anymore my artesas won't even work on top of prismas anymore they're rebelling yes the wings look like a chaotic mess at the moment don't worry they will come together what is da2 yeah i tried cleaning them evelyn they're not working though um i've had a few people say that they've had the same issue even after cleaning their artesas i don't know maybe wax rolled up in there i don't know i but i've cleaned them so [Music] oh downton abbey i love downton abbey so the second film is being filmed oh like the second movie that's right i forgot they did a movie i watched the movie just forgot about it my tablet is on silent and yet the notifications keep going off hmm i think all technology is rebelling against me today i'm just coloring wings anytime i color wings i just make them reflect all the colors that are going to be in my page so i have teal pink purple i'm not putting brown in there though even though tan is part of my color scheme i'm not putting brown wings out there yeah chet is moving fast i go to look and i'm like wait wait no wait i swear there was something else there wait what happened to shell all i see is ouch shell so i missed that somewhere things are removing 14 hours to upload oh mine used to do that with our old internet but it's been a little better but maybe youtube is just rebelling this weekend they've had enough they're like hey okay you guys are done streaming how long was the video like i do record in 4k so it takes a little longer like those hair videos will take a a bit but they still only take like two hours maybe max maybe three oh only a 33 minute one twice as long as the video yeah the crummy part is like uh upload speeds because you know you could get great download speeds from your internet provider and then realize like your upload is what won't but even with good upload speeds sometimes it's just youtube's end like i don't know let's get some green in here with more coffee i saw in the other chat brandy you were drinking coffee it's a lot of coffee girl drink it from the moment you get up to the moment you go to bed oh my gosh yeah um my stomach would straight up hate on me it already hates on me for one cup a day so i'm not going to anger it more than i already do i used to be able to drink coffee like that i miss those days now my stomach's like me out can't even eat spicy food without it rebelling i need some green up here this corner is kind of lonely on colors you love the wink i could totally be missing something oh the wing i was like wait what wink did i miss something don't worry autocorrect gets me every time i'm in someone's chat you're good i'm like this makes total sense and then i read it back i'm like oh no it's not what i was going for yeah 14 hours for a 33 minute video is uh pretty rough autocorrect is a bully i agree does it on text messages too i'm like i made total sense and then i'll read a text message like never mind but i've actually gotten so lazy that i just use samsung has the voice recordings you can just record a voice message and send that instead of a text so i just do that all right what color do i need to mix in there oh that's the color i'm missing is my peach i knew i was missing a color oh i did not tape this one well so this can be awkward to hold hey shadow welcome okay i need some blue in between there all right where is my aqua autocorrect is correcting me still my smartphones are not so smart sometimes see i definitely want this one here oh that lion was very pretty beautifully done so far all right i see i watch purple where's my purple oh thanks deb i'm gonna go all over it with white in a minute and just smush it all together just trying to fill in some of the gaps with colors that are missing yes smush that's why i love the prismacolor it just smooshes you're like what the those colors don't go together yes they do because it's a prismacolor you can smoosh them all okay not everything i've actually tried to smush colors that should not go together and sometimes it looks really bad so you gotta do it cautiously normally i would color inside the wing lines like the little lines the artist leaves but this one was just so faint and hard to see so i'm like whatever i'm just gonna make it patchy and call it good [Music] okay where is my white see now i'm just gonna smoosh it all together although this is like super sharp so this is gonna be dangerous can't push too hard otherwise that thing's gonna snap and then you guys will have to hear the glorious sound of my electric pencil sharpener i actually like the white the white makes it all translucent-ish oh thanks evelyn you're so sweet yes it's smoosh time actually hold that thought because i have a white spot not smushing yet you get some pink in there [Music] oh there we go now it's not as sharp so i can smush without snapping it all right hardest part is i'm like did i smush that already can't even see where my white is when i did this on tan toned paper you could see it's so much better but i decided to print it on white because i don't use my white paper enough i've been like on a tan tone paper kick as of late oh thank you guys thank you thank you like i said it gets outlined in white but we're not going to do that today because no one wants to sit me or see me sit here and fidget with my white gel pen and yeah and by that i mean just get frustrated and throw it so i'm gonna spray it with some workable fixative and i will outline it later i think that is smooshed enough smooshy enough yeah i think we're good all right let's see i'm gonna do her hair i'll do more wings in a minute give you guys a variety to watch here instead of me doing wings oh hi lisa thank you i'm gonna make sure i'm in frame my little fairy is gonna have brown hair because one of my colors is tan so i need to get tan in there where i can oh hey that rhymes tan where i can look at me go well thank you evelyn no i'm not going to do any crazy hair today um i actually just filmed the red hair tutorial so i'm kind of flicked out um but also this is prismacolor i don't do the same same thing anyway yeah there's no other way to put it i'm flicked out that pink hair took some energy out of me like okay oh thank you mona yes i did have my colors picked for me uh in tammy's stream i even messaged her i'm like i'm gonna do it i'm gonna use those colors i got this they're pretty colors now if she would have been like here's some orange and neon green then i would be like oh but she actually set me up with some pretty colors oh thank you joyce yeah i'm trying to just reflect the colors that will be in the page i mean granted i won't finish this on stream today um because i can't color a whole page in two hours even with prismas and all their smushy glory still need some time but i will try to finish it today and i'll share it in my community tab and instagram oh hey dee welcome i was actually using arteza's right before this stream and i was like hey those artisans aren't bad they're so soft and then i picked up my prismacolor and i'm like never mind they are soft but they're not prisma soft oh thanks ashley shelling you do you shell and shell is after me there was a change in the schedule so instead of um zoe it's gonna be shell after me which is actually her normal streaming time anyway so okay emma thank you for coming elma i'm sorry i gotta say it right elma here i say i'm not gonna flick and i'm flicking hair it's like a i can't it's a compulsion i got problems so i guess we are flicking here so whatever yeah the elma's never going away oh hey jamie you can color and you can't color an entire page in two days i normally can't either but i'm really going to like sit down and try to finish this one today do my darndest hey imogen oh no worries yes go eat i know it's dinner time for you guys out there all right were both the years for julia and july renee or just you got two done in general well i know one of them was for julia in july but flicker ocd no i'm like i'm not going to flick this guys and then i'm like let's just forget i said i'm not gonna do that because obviously i'm gonna do that so just not as not as crazy i see hair i wanna flick it i don't know it's just that does not sound right though gotta think a different way to put that oh you did yours and then followed emily's emily's was pretty pretty pretty i caught most of that stream but then we had to eat so i missed some of it i do not want that much beige showing through actually that's eggshell not beige whatever i don't want that showing through that much [Music] hey helen welcome emily wasn't your stream like four hours or came out to four hours i know i i was like two hours in when i had to i had to leave hey della welcome in case anyone's curious this is how i do hair with prismacolor because i know a few of you have asked emily the overachiever she was able to finish that picture though in a day i really need to start doing marker bases i think my life would move a lot faster my coloring life oh my gosh i can sit here under this hair forever darken that go grab the other parts of her hair oh thank you helen wings aren't done but that's probably as done as they'll get on stream [Music] today the show says me and markers are like two squabbling sisters it took me a while to start liking markers and then once i finally got it down i was like ooh these could be fun but at first i was like i can't do this i'm blending them because at first i just color blocked with them and then i learned how to blend them and that was that was a nightmare probably would have been funny to watch though oh yeah you were coloring from her book i just printed a pdf i actually don't own any of her books because um i'd rather just print her pdfs since i know the books are on create space paper and yes i'm kind of a paper snob that to be shadowed oh my gosh what paper am i using um this isn't the astrobrite it's the other one i use and i can't think of it right now um yeah i will definitely make sure i link it it was linked in my original stream but since i had to start it over um i couldn't even tell erica to go get the link because there's no links right now but yeah i'll link it after because i have to double check it's one of two shadow it really doesn't make you a paper snob we just all have preferences like i like to smush my prismas and while i could smush them on any paper i just like the way they smush on certain paper and i just personally don't like a lot of tooth but there's nothing wrong with using a lot of tooth some pencils actually you have to use tooth otherwise they're just like no so it really just depends but i mean i like really smooth paper it works my coloring style and i still can layer a bunch like when i'm doing portraits you scan and print on your own paper helen yeah a lot of a lot of us do that there's nothing wrong with that um i mean a lot of times i'll buy a book on that's on createspace paper because i like the artwork and it's not offered digitally and then i'll just print it so i basically buy it with the intention of scanning and printing it but luckily more artists are starting to do pdf versions of their books which i love oh hey sabrina welcome welcome welcome and lou hello lou brandi sorry the chat's moving so fast so that i cut brandy's comment this is a really awkward angle that just flipped the whole page but let's try to make it so you guys could actually see it all right that's actually a good idea lisa having them scan and print it and rebind it i know they do that um well sometimes some sometimes they're finicky and they won't do it but it's like if you bring the physical book you've obviously paid for it oh hi charlotte yes welcome back welcome welcome oh melissa and angela i'm trying to make sure i see everyone oh lisa you have to watch for the right guy yeah because i've heard of people taking things to like fedex kinkos and they won't do it whereas others will so definitely have to have like an inside hookup i wonder how they cut the binding there i mean i have my own method to my madness but i'm wondering if they have something way easier than the way i do it do they charge you to cut the binding or will they cut the binding for free oh cool they do that for free i could i have a whole stack of books i'm too lazy to pull the binding off of them so i'm like ah which is why they haven't been colored in they're just hanging out waiting for me to not be lazy yeah that's what i do evelyn is i heat them up and melt the glue other times i just break them like straight up use my my internal rage take it out on the poor book and just break them and they peel right off it's good therapy just pull the book apart okay i think these little wispies are her hair well they're they're gonna be her hair yeah my coloring rage got lots of coloring rage so do they just basically like say here's the the spine they just basically slice at the glue line pretty much is that how they take it or cut it because that would keep you from having any of the glue ickies all over your pages that's for sure oh we're at one hour okay okay so julia the artist whom we are all coloring in this colorathon was awesome enough to let us have an image to give away which i will show in one second um so uh those of you who've been watching the colorathon probably know the rules but just for those who are new to the giveaway rules via live stream um here is the lovely image of course i'm not going to zoom out because we all know my camera's being really dumb right now so um this is the image that julia has given us to give away and here's how it's gonna work for the giveaway guys when i type go go go into live chat so please make sure you're in live chat kind of critical there but when i type go go go you will pick a number let's see we have 71 watching okay so 1 to 100 um but the rules are you can only input one number so only one entry per person um no comments after i say go go go the only comments should be a number as your entry into the giveaway so please keep that in mind um my moderators will delete any comments that are not numbers and then node duplicates so the first person to have put that number down is going to be the winner and then also the closest number to the number i pull without going over is the winner so we all good on the rules because i don't want anyone to be like wait what's the rules so and then hopefully my moderators can delete anything that accidentally pops in there but yes make sure you are in live chat when we start this because if you're in topchat you're not gonna see it so this is the image that will be for the giveaway okay so are you ready erica for all your fun eric is like my volunteer moderator to do all the fun for this giveaway i'm just going to color while you guys start doing numbers oh you want it and shell yeah it's the same image all of us are giving away so the good news is if you don't want it here um shells stream after will have it yes one to one hundred i we have enough because there's 73 people so we're good okay so i'm gonna type go go go and once you see that pop in nothing but numbers and then i'm probably gonna give it a minute so that everyone has a chance and if you're lurking please go ahead and do your comment that's fine if you don't normally chat you can still enter you don't have to be all chatty okay nothing but numbers guys nothing but numbers and i'm going to color while you guys do your number thing if you accidentally duplicate you can delete your message and try and get one in there but um just remember it's whoever puts that number in first once i say stop so once i type stop anything after that won't be accepted i'm going to give you guys a bit hi ryan but we're gonna have to delete your comment because we're in the middle of a giveaway ryan put in a number zero two um 100 for the giveaway but don't duplicate anyone above you hi ryan now i got to delete you and by that i mean erica has to delete you so erica did it not me [Laughter] i'm just coloring all right i'll give you guys like 20 more seconds zero to 100 brian over feet's sick okay i still see a few numbers so i'll be nice and let you guys get your numbers in okay last chance get your number in because i'm gonna type stop stop stop and anything after that will not count so keep that in mind eric is having to eric is gonna be like ah why did i sign up for this okay i'm typing stop all right okay so anything after the stop is not entered okay let me get my lovely little thing here over to my random number generator okay oh i'm doing it on my tablet because i'm filming with my phone so here we go that's not the number i have to pick the number so ready 51. all right so um if all my moderators could help erica for her sanity find who the 51 either if someone has 51 or um they're just under it but remember they cannot be after 51 so they need to be at it or the closest under i'm going to sharpen [Music] and then moderators just put it in the chat um here 52 is over it has to be at the number or under not over so debbie at 50 okay looks like we have an agreement okay well congratulations debbie um erica will give you or she'll put my email address in the chat there and just email me debbie and then i will send you the um the image so congrats congrats you get the cute adorable hat lady i love that image it's so quirky yeah now everyone can say hi to ryan [Laughter] freaking ryan showing up in the middle of a giveaway and making erica's fingers work quickly to delete yep so that's the email debbie just use that shoot me an email and then i will give you your pdf thank you guys for participating and of course thank you to julia for giving us the image to give away in the first place oh is melissa doing deleting too melissa is on it i should have made ryan a mod so i could pay him back for that time he did that on his stream i was seeing numbers in my my dreams that was rough all right oh my gosh am i gonna spend my whole stream doing her hair that's what i do i guess oh is sauna in here i never even sauce on it well hi sonette um let's see what's on it the first one with uh with 50. i know i need to get a nightbot but that would require me to do do software which i'm gonna do it's just so much easier to go off my phone of course let's not actually say that today because today my phone rebelled so thanks ryan let's see oh renee's posting them yeah and then you always want to make sure you're also in um live chat because if you're not in live chat then it doesn't go in the right order and a lot of mobile devices default to top chat and actually some tvs the tv in my bedroom defaults to top chat while the roku in my living room defaults to live chat so i'm like okay thanks for that thanks emily yeah i do need to eventually switch over and get all that stuff squared away clearly because my phone is like not wanting to stream for me now i will actually be changing my stream setup very soon well i don't want to say very give me a couple weeks um but there will be some changes so changing my cameras and all sorts of things i'm trying to get it to not auto focus on my hand i might color the water next give us a break from the hair so the webcam i bought actually is um works pretty well for live streaming and it turns off the autofocus so it doesn't do what my phone is doing right now zeroing in on my moving hand wait is sonnet the winner i'm so confused now all right almost done with the hair just more brown sure you guys love the sound of that electric pencil sharpener but my doll is not sharpening anything except fellissimo pencils right now so i don't know what's up with that yes thank you to shell and ashley they're both co-hosting the um colorathon so thank you to both of them for doing that i can't even begin to imagine how stressful that is actually i'm like i just show up in color you guys have to like plan a schedule and but yes thank you guys and it was a very cute one cute idea so what i like about it is it actually exposed me to more of julia's artwork because i will admit i haven't done a lot of her stuff in the past so it was kind of nice i was like oh like i knew she had these images but i didn't realize she had all those portraits the only stressful thing was the time conversions yeah that um i don't even know how you guys did the time conversions without going cuckoo but congrats to that uh i was like i was just waiting for you guys to finally convert it for the u.s i was like hey because at first it was i think just uh the uk time so i was like trying to math in my head i can't i can't convert time to save my life and then you've got to factor in all the daylight savings oh my gosh no thanks no thanks so yeah kudos to you guys on that one because no wouldn't it happen for me let me just drop a prismacolor which we all know means it's gonna shatter all right oh thank you charlotte i think i really want to color her or the water see i already have my little test sheet here where i was playing around with everything in my color palette i think i want to do the water get that out of the way get some more color and get a break from the hair or her skin i don't know so many things to color and yes i'm totally bouncing all over the page but it's just because so many things to color in two hours i gotta fix the chat on my thing oh hi mary thank you and welcome it's like the water just ends there i guess i'm gonna make it end over there i guess hmm hi shannon welcome teach you how to color water i can't color water i straight up winged it on my sample one that's just smooshing prismas together that's my secret just smush them together and call it water like yeah that looks like water sure so oh my gosh my notifications i've silenced them several times wow technology's rebelling today yeah just wing it it's kind of my secret to a lot of things i do yeah i just threw some color there it looked good so i was like yeah i guess we're gonna call that water today half the things i color i just don't think about it i just slap the color down and i almost find they work better than when i'm actually trying to color something correctly so i love about prismas they just do whatever you want them to let's see shadow i'm currently coloring a picture with water and i'm avoiding it the sky and water are the last oh you could yeah you could do water with um distress ink or like put down distress ink is like your base to kind of take away the scary white space that's all up in front of you and then just use some pencil for extra i mean at the end i literally just smushed this together with white if you haven't noticed like a recurring theme on this page smushing with white but white and sky blue or i should say sky blue light if you want to be correct about it oh her etsy shop again yeah it was in my description for my other uh one um erica do you have uh her etsy shop by chance oh look at that she's already on top of it i had all these linked in the original stream so now it's like ah maybe nope no cloud blue i use sky blue light at least for this water combo because i'm going more teal-ish since tammy picked teal as one of my colors let me just color over that flower like it wasn't even there yes swishing with white i honestly don't use white that often to smoosh it's just wow i cannot clean the lines today uh today because like fairy wings i always smush with white to make them more translucent looking and then water i always like smoosh with my lightest color and white it's like i press harder with my lighter colors my darker ones are there just for a little bit of depth i think in my s do i have what you know i have light green in here too so i need to take that out so i don't forget to add that i love smushy pencils it saves my hand from cramping just smush i tend to always blend though with the lightest color or a white rather than the colorless blender but that's just how i roll you do you some pencils like i have to use the colorless blender though because i don't like to layer for days i'm like i'm done with this i'm just adding some green because why not we're totally gonna dust that off get the prisma dust going on get that in there oh thank you mary just trying to go for some magical looking water and not not a swampy one so i'm trying to not put too much green let's see charlotte uh i never liked the prisma blender yeah i always use a lighter color or white i i don't always use a blender and then my shadow asks something but my chat is being silly let's see uh which pencil is more smooshable yeah prismas it definitely prismas luminance uh buff titanium i use as a blender sometimes but if you're talking smoosh ability it's totally the prisma there is no other smoosher oh thank you guys thank you thank you literally just making squiggly lines for water and we're gonna call it water all right i need to get out my wipe but i'm not ready for my weight yet watch this color get a little bit of darker areas here and there you love your prisma blender i use the prisma blender on other pencils quite a lot and if i ever am like looking to drag a color i tend to reach for my prisma blender i haven't tried the derwent one though i know a lot of people really like the derwent blender but i haven't tried it i will admit i'm off screen oh there we go trying to keep it all on frame the water kind of just ends over here i'll probably go back later and like create something but a lot of this image just like suddenly appears what's the dark blue oh that's indigo blue uh i have for the water it's indigo blue cobalt turquoise um aquamarine uh light aqua light green sky blue light and then there will be white also that's a lot of colors um but yeah see i like the karan dash one i dig that one oh thanks angela so yeah the sky blue light i just kind of use to help blend a few areas and then i usually go over a few with white you didn't like the derwent one karen is that what you're saying cause i haven't tried the derwent one but i swear colorless blenders are like pencils we all you know have preferences let's see i know what you meant evelyn i knew what you meant the aran dash karan dash is a lot to type is it is the derwent one harder than the um prisma one because that the prisma one is pretty pretty rough i don't know did the picture go away i mean it's showing on my tablet but um i don't know if it went away for anyone else honestly the prisma blender was made for the smushy pencils you might just have to restart it renee like i swear youtube is having a day or something i hope it doesn't give shell grief okay ooh my hand i'm not even pressing that hard it's just my hand see lisa i'm coloring with prismas over copic and you're in your happy place yeah i like i'm saying earlier i need to start using marker bases it would save me a lot of time i don't know why i don't do it honestly i keep saying i'm going to but then i'm like oh just use the pencils whatever it says you've been to too many streets you have been barred from streaming i guess i could sit here and add water layers for days like two years later oh the parrot case that ryan has i'm pretty sure i'm pretty sure renee is joking [Laughter] i doubt youtube would ever ban someone from watching too much that'd be the day they go down all right i'm gonna leave that as is like messing with it hey i don't like to layer a lot you'll notice i did very little layering here this was a lot more of a blending smoosh session than a layering now on tan toned paper it layers like like butter look at that on tan tone paper butter on white it takes a little a little more okay let's see what two let's look at her skin going where's my brown [Music] half my pencils are taped together today could you imagine if um youtube did start taking on like the netflix approach are you still watching this you would never do that fox chapel publishing uh which books are those ones [Laughter] let's not get ryan ranting here now oh thanks mary [Music] that's weird is like the netflix one does anyone else notice it feels kind of random how it like asks you because i swear there's times like awful asleep watching tv and it never asks it just keeps playing but then when i'm actually awake and watching it it's like hey this is what we're gonna do so i've always found that kind of interesting hey sherry yes you hit a very sensitive subject for ryan way to go now he's gonna rant about it but yeah my netflix will let go all night while i fall asleep to it but during the day it keeps asking if i'm still watching it like i'm right here oh my gosh oh thank you uh is it i hope i said that right or if you have something else you prefer to be called you can totally tell me they're onto your insomnia they're like she's probably awake it's 2 am let's keep playing but 2 in the afternoon no she shouldn't be watching this oh thanks jamie me saying hi to her oh my dear siri i could see that actually siri thinks i'm talking to her [Laughter] we don't have siri in my house we used to have alexa but once we moved actually we never plugged alexa back in i just realized oops sorry alexa just sharpened my weight like luna but lunate oh okay oh thanks sherry hopefully i didn't set off any series they set off your alexa huh and we never plugged ours back in after moving uh they're in my kid's room you're serious set up i'm just gonna keep saying things then see how many series we can get going am i settled oh yeah yeah we're settled in we've been here since march now just don't don't ask me about my yard and we're good we tease ryan about a ranch but ask me about grass and you'll see a whole new rant come out [Laughter] there is a fedex truck outside my house it's sunday is it not am i losing it it's sunday right i guess fedex delivers on sundays oh my gosh no no no baby shark no that song was just pure evil and the makers of baby shark knew what they were doing they know what they were doing oh hey sherry dee welcome back sorry you had to have a meeting on a sunday that sucks just call you luna we can call you luna oh hi tanya welcome like i said if i miss anyone sorry just tell erica to yell at me because emma's not here to yell at me today oh fedex just delivered something it's a big box i'm trying to think what the heck it would be don't you hate that when they deliver stuff and you're like what did i order oh man i really got problems uh training oh man training on a weekend it's not cool although i'm going to talk my employees are working right now in fact one of them messaged me right before i streamed i was like yeah i'll get i'll get to that in a minute i gotta go stream you guys work i gotta go stream before a porch pirate does um i mean if they wanna steal it they could i'm literally facing my porch and they'll be on three different security cameras because we're those people that are just surrounded by cameras i mean it'll be pretty ballsy to do it and we live in the middle of nowhere so they'd be seen like a mile away see how are we on time because my clock is not showing up uh oh you've never been to a live before luna well welcome to your first live 20 minutes cool thank you thank you i got my wall clock but i don't know how trustworthy that is the batteries go out like every five seconds on that thing like i don't know it's like you have yelling assistants well it's just kind of a joke because uh emma one of my my darling friends and moderators uh i always tell her just yell at me so she puts everything in caps but it's easy to miss questions sometimes when live chat's popping away especially because you like color and you look up and you go oh my gosh what happened it moves a lot faster than you think oh this is like a really easy skin combo um from uh oh my gosh uh julie's passion for coloring like this is like the first skin combo i ever used and she uses it a lot in her images and seriously just four colors and it always looks so cute and i always use it on these like little ones because yeah i just want like four colors but you should see her use it on her images it's crazy crazy i got a big portrait though i go into a little bit more but these little ones i'm like less colors the better oh zoey hi zoe i hope you're feeling okay you need to message me later zoe and tell me what they found i wish you were streaming too but i'd rather you get better at first oh from idaho you're right north of me is it amira is that how you say it because i'm in lovely utah good old utah oh germany hi sonja oh hi impossible to sign from spain oh and your first live coloring well welcome oh you're from israel luna wow you guys are we got people all over i'm like yeah i'm from utah it's kind of a foreign country here in the us it's got its own whole weird set of rules all right i think any state in the us feels that way i have to take a drink of water guys water break oh my goodness i went almost two hours ago drinking water oh i bet zoe well hopefully they let you go soon so well let you go with answers so you at least know what's up and then go home and go to bed yes it is an international love affair that's a good way to put it actually very good is it still auto focusing or did it decide to stop being rude and doing that because that was annoying even me i think that's like part of her top yeah we're gonna say it is thank you evelyn i've never told you about the hands comment [Laughter] so sweet is it zooming in and out i hate that i'll keep my hand in the corner yes sorry guys we have tech problems today for those of you who are just joining um my first stream did not want to get out of portrait mode because the youtube app was all about rebelling today and then it finally went live zoomed in like this it won't zoom out any further and straight up all auto focusing so we're on a roll it's like three for three thanks ashley uh yeah i am on my phone i normally go live straight from the app on my phone and i don't have any issues but today it's just been i don't know don't know what it's doing today i guess it's finally like okay time to use a webcam just keep my hand off to the corner and then it won't auto focus it likes to zoom in on your hand oh you're so sweet zoey but i guess you can't hear me say that so i'll message you later and tell you that you couldn't get your mic to work oh oh zoe said i'm so sweet oh i will message her later since she doesn't have sound on um sorry guys the chat was moving fast but i swear someone asked a question okay if i missed a question just yell at me in caps and i'll catch it oh tammy g'day tammy i'm using your color palette the tammy challenge which is actually really pretty colors just randomly picked from items on your desk but it worked i did add some purple though i broke a little bit and had some purple in there uh luna asked if oh the colors were written down anywhere they um i can add them to the description after the stream today so i'll definitely do that for you i have them all written down on my little test sheet over here i have to go back to my old stream and copy everything over anyway so i'll make sure to add the colors and yes shell is up next so shell is what in 10 minutes do i have my time right um so she's next up in the colorathon so if you guys want to you know get some water or you know bathroom break and all that i know emma or not emma gosh i did it again i know erica linked um to shell and then she can just spam it here and there so you guys know but yes shell is up next i got 12 minutes oh good see like i said my wall clock is not very reliable and my tablet is just over here like about to battery die on me so like on hmm yes tammy good point good point tammy you missed all this smoosh i've like smushed twice and you weren't here for the smoosh tammy loves this mush yes my pencil is taped together it's what i do i don't use pencil extenders so i just buddy tape it to its replacement friend so that it fits in my afmac sharpener i know some people glue it but that would require me to wait for it to dry and i don't have that kind of patience going on so tape it is but yes that's what i do with my pencils instead of extending them because i just i don't like pencil extenders and i can't seem to find one that i like yeah you can't miss the smoosh i even said smoosh thank you erica elma whatever we shall call you today you've been a dear i felt so bad i'm like hey who wants to volunteer to do all this happy sunday so i tried a few pencil extenders and i just they've all been uncomfortable to me um i've even tried buying those things from my kids school that have like little rubber silicone whatever thing and i just don't like them so i just tape them i just tape them buddy them up to their next color and then it actually lets me sharpen the pencil like down to there so um i actually get more out of my pencils that way but then it fits in my fmat so that was the other reason it broke it and performed surgery on it now like half the pencils i'm using today though are taped together because they were on their last leg and they wouldn't fit in my sharpener but that's the thing with the pencil extender it won't get the pencil into my afmat so no pencil surgery today but yes they're all see this one's buddy taped to its replacement so you'll have like freakishly long pencils but you just get used to it i don't know what did charlotte say because i missed that one you give me the pencil tape uh you guys you guys [Laughter] stirred up some pencil talk pencil surgery talk i know prismas break a lot but no i was not performing surgery on my prismas today they've actually stayed intact i just wanted to be able to sharpen them keep my hand out of the way keep forgetting i don't want the autofocus to make everyone nauseous because it makes me nauseous so sorry and no there will be no husky flying off the stairs today like in my haul video i had a few of you comment asking if my dog was okay that's why i shared that picture in my community tab she's fine she's just a dork yeah i just taped them together so that i can sharpen them and use them um more so sharpen them because i'll use a pretty short pencil for a while but they won't fit in my sharpener once they get to like right here the aft mat won't sharpen them so brandi you were worrying about my dog well i love that auto correct but i'm not gonna repeat it because you know monetization sorry but yeah i know you meant dog yes my dog she's fine she's just a big big goofball yeah go get one oh my gosh that was the best autocrat i can't even freaking color now i'm laughing oh goodness gracious okay brandi wins for the best auto correct yep that was a good one [Laughter] oh my gosh there's so many ways i could i could like respond to that but i can't i'm live i'm live i literally have tears in my eyes though so it's like i'm trying to get those out of the way yeah i think she broke me because i'm seriously tearing up because that was freaking hilarious yes the snack monsters they made it almost to the end oh speaking of which i'm going to just keep coloring the skin so yeah um elma if you could link shells again because shell will be up here very soon so everyone knows um i won't you know i won't be hurt if y'all want to take off and do whatever before shells i want to take it personal get some water to the ghetto girls yes she'll be up in five minutes and then i will be cutting this off oh no did someone screenshot brandy's autocorrect i might need to use that later thank you elma
