ScrawlrBox #047

I am very glad that scrawlrbox decided to diversify their boxes and, in addition to watercolors, pencils and markers, invited their subscribers to try more interesting materials. Personally, I have never tasted butter before and it turned out to be a very rewarding and interesting experience, thanks.

Can never fault anything I get for my daughter here she loves it all :heart_eyes:

Great box idea and good selection of colors.

Great quality oil paints. Had never used this type of paint or supplies before. The colors included are great, red blue and white which allows you to create tons of different colors.

I've never tried oil paint before because of the chemicals required to dissolve them, so this selection of supplies was very surprising and interesting for me. I loved this box!

Brilliant!
I love when my box arrives and have some ME time, the contents are high quality plus you get to see and artist and ideas to use the products with

An excellent set at a really great price for what you get. I loved the ScrawlrBox brush, that was an excellent touch. Few colours here, but the materials are of a really great quality and there's more than enough to get a feel for how oils work and play with texture.

As ever this was a wonderful box to receive and I have thoroughly enjoyed using its contents.

This is my first ScrawlrBox and I haven't been disapointed ! Shipping was on point, my mom (whom I bought it for) hasn't tested them yet so idk about the quality, but she definitely enjoyed the present.

Bought as gift for my sister. She loved it! And made a beautiful painting that’s now on mum wall.

I loved having new materials to try.

Nice box.... great quality, as usual!

Bought as a gift for a friend who enjoys painting, she enjoyed experimenting with them and was impressed with the quality of the brush

I bought this as a gift as I thought it may be a fun lockdown couples activity. The quality and colours are fantastic. My order arrived really quickly too. I love Scrawlr boxes!

Great product

Great value!

Brilliant

Haven't had time to properly play with the box yet, but from what I've seen these water soluble oils are really good quality and I can't wait to try them! Great box.

Something I had never used before

Really nice to try out oil painting.

Was a real challenge, I've never used oli paint and have to say still really haven't figured out how to get a good painting out of it

The white brush is my daughter's new favourtie brush. She loves her boxes.

I materiali sono eccellenti e versatili. È stato davvero divertente usarli e allo stesso tempo ho avuto risultati veramente soddisfaventi!

I've wanted to try I'll painting for a while so decided to treat myself to this previous box as it was one released just before I started my subscription, messaging that I missed it on it first time around. The festive sale was a perfect time to try it.

I bought this box to try water-soluble oil paints on my own, as I had used them before in various art classes. The colors are bright. The only problem I had was that it took over a week for my background to dry, but that may have been my fault because I used a palette knife to add texture and the paint layers may have been too thick. Overall a good starter box.

Never thought I'd work with oil paints. May be somewhere in the future. Those Cobra oil paints are a great way to learn this medium without all the mess with solvents. Actually it was a lot of fun. Especially with the possibility to follow the scrawlbox hashtag for some tips and use ideas.

I really enjoying this box, I used to use oil paints a lot at college, but always found the clean up prohibitive once I didn't have a fitted art space. These paints behave like oil but can be cleaned up easily. I've even asked for a larger range of colours for Christmas! I did think that the 10cm by 10cm canvas was a little small though obviously it needs to fit in the box.

The products themselves look good although I haven't actually used them as the materials providing guidance on how to use them just recommended a you tube channel of an artist and not video spoke specifically about the box and how you might use those products specifically. I got a bit lost in those videos and wasn't very inspired by the artist so went looking for other videos that might help, but gave up. I had begun to get together the basics (e.g. the difference with oils is that you start with the darkest colour and build up to the lightest, the opposite of acrylics) but it definitely didn't feel like you were be guided to understand where to start and how you might get the best out of the products.

We bought this box as a gift for my oldest who is in to oil painting. She loved this box. It fit her better than some of the other art boxes. Her favorite was the oil paint that was water clean up.

I got this box as a "previous boxes" purchase. I am a bit scared to use Oil paints. I think I am still a bit scared to use them, but I am glad to have the opportunity to try them out without having to go out and buy a whole other set of supplies.
Personally, oil is not for me. I prefer things that dry quicker: acrylic, gouche, watercolour etc. to oils. I think in part because I don't have the space to safely leave something to dry for that length of time in my tiny studio flat. In that sense, it was good that this was a small canvas.
For quality, these are great and if you like oils or if you wanted to try but always put it off like me, then this is a fabulous option to test things out with.
I am not about to go out and buy oil paints, but I now know which to get should I want to go try it again in the future.
Thank you Scrawlrbox for another fabulous curation of a box of art supplies.

I loved these it made oil paints feel accessible. Really good experience.

So many good things... excellent quality, speedy delivery, the supplies all work well together. I loved it.
