Drawing during the Covid19 Pandemic is not really something I am surprised in doing, since I draw all the time. What I find interesting is that at all the stores I went to, the art section would be nearly cleaned out because so many people got the supplies when everyone was sent home. I really think people need to have some sort of creative side so they can have something to look forward to other than school or work. Just my opinion.
What I am surprised about is how much these Prismacolor pencils last. Like they really, really, last long and I have been using them nearly every day. Granted I use other medium in my drawings like markers of even gel pens, but still, I am shocked how long a pencil can last.
I am so happy with the amount of usage I got from this set so far. To be honest, the yellow you see behind the green is actually a third replacement I had gotten not too long ago. Turns out I gravitated to that color a lot, mostly for highlights and to give a glowing effect in some of my drawings. I always find if nice when an artist has something they are attracted to more than others when it comes to their art supplies. I think there was a red I used up twice as well, but I ended up waiting until I am completely done with this set to move onto my huge set of pencils. I personally like the challenge of having a limited color palette.
Still got a long way to go, but I plan on trying to post everything on here rather than social media. Hope this stupid pandemic comes to an end, because I miss lurking around Hobby Lobby and Michaels.
