Love the colour palette you broke it down to. 150 colours can be a bit overwhelming all together. I’m obsessed with Spanish Orange

Wonderful way to go trough a flu!!! in relationship to the luminance ones are those harder or similar? Thank you dear Sandi

hard to explain - I would say softer and smoother in some ways but just different

i'd say prismacolours are creamier and luminance are more chalky... in my opinion. both are ridiculously nice to work with.

Yay. I’m glad to see you on here again. I love colored pencils. I have the whole set of the Faber Castell polychroma pencils and I love them. My daughter has a smaller set of Prisma Colors I think she really like them too. Enjoy those. I hope you had a lovely holiday season.

Yay! I’ve missed you on Substack. It was my Sandi/inspiration fix in between YouTube videos. 😁. I’m actually on the couch all day with a migraine and was binge watching your old videos on YouTube when this notification popped up!😃. Glad you’re back!

Love this! I also purchased the Prisma Premier Colored Pencils set and I absolutely love them. A lot of your favorite colors are also mine. Especially the muted colors 🩶🩶

I feel like there should be an artists' exchange program. I typically use the same colors over and over, and don't necessarily want a whole set. If I were to get a whole set I would have extra colors that I would be willing to give away or exchange for other media from another artist. I wonder how we would set up something like this?

An Artists swap site.

I don't know, but it would be a interesting biz opportunity if it doesn't.

Happy New Year! Always a joy to watch you in action Sandi. I just pulled out a set of 24 prismacolor pencils, dusted them off, and swatched along with you. I appreciate the inspiration.

I feel like Prismacolors have gotten a bad rap and have fell out of favor in the company of more expensive artist-grade pencils. I have a few of the “better” brands and honestly use the heck out of my Prismacolors; plus they don’t cost an arm, leg or other body parts to replace. The full set is just glorious (insert angels singing). :) Thanks for sharing the lovelies.
