I will warn everyone........Be prepared, if you buy a set of these amazing Inktense pencils, you will want every single color! Thank God they are sold open stock so you can buy individual colors. Colin's videos got me hooked and they have become my favorite medium! Just remember, there are worse things to spend your money on! Enjoy. 🤣🥰

I bought a large set of the intense pencils and haven’t really played around with them much. I’m so happy that I came upon your video today. You explain things easily and really have sparked my interest. I am going to play with them tonight and watch another one of your videos. Thank you so much.

Dearest brother, the best part of your video is really the final message: "It's never luck; it's always God". And He is in your work, your dabbing, your voice, your eyes.....(from Brazil)

Hi Colin - I’ve been using Inktense for years - great product and happy they expanded the range. Funny story : I live in Texas and ordered some of the new colors last year from Jackson’s and they shipped from the UK 🇬🇧. One of the colors was Pink Flamingo 🦩. Well, I got a notice that the one pencil, Pink Flamingo, was delayed in transit because it needed to be inspected by the US Department of Fish and Wildlife. They did eventually clear it - I’m sure it wasn’t what they were expecting 😂. By the way - I love your shirt 🙏🏻❤!

Love Inktense pencils. I’m a mixed media artist and often use them in wet paint to add bursts of colour. I adore your channel and could listen and watch for hours. Your style is so beautiful to watch and your voice calms. Thanks for sharing your talent 🙏🏻

What a lovely little piece of art you produced so simply. I have Intense and have been scared of them. I was not using them with such a light hand as this. Inspirational. Thank you.

I bought a large set of these a year or so ago because you showed us how to bring them to life. Thank you again!! For the review 😊

I love my inktense pencils and the blocks ( they also have extra large blocks). I have had mine for years and they are awesome. Once they are dry they are permanent and so they do not rewet.
Thanks for a lovely video.

I regularly use them to add touches of color and details to my wet-on-wet watercolors, or in places where water cannot be used, such as museums; they are very useful.

Oh a huge thank you for this video Colin. You have given me the umph I needed to get my intense pencils out xxxx

Thank you Colin…just a brilliant video …love these pencils and feeling so inspired to use them while I travel…perfect medium

Beautiful. I love Inktense. I use them in coloring books and they work fabulously. I can add just a tiny bit of water on a brush and the paper doesn’t buckle. It’s like magic! ❤

Wonderful tutorial thank youuuuuu ❤

@BubbityBubsInPhilly 1 month ago

Because of your example, the flat brush is now my favourite. I can do SO MANY things with it. And I feel like I have more control.

@velvajeantrapp 2 months ago

These pencils were used in a sketching class I took and a year or so later I finally got them! I've used them to accent my water color paintings and recently in my book art journal I carry with me. This video was is very helpful as well as your sketching. Thank you😊

Thank you for this! I purchased a set of these a few years ago and haven't really explored their potential. I appreciate the info and the inspiration!
