I was looking at your sketchbooks but your sizes are kind of confusing as I’m American but I was looking for something around b5 size. Do you have any b5?

​@@kathyhackney7950 Not sure if you figured it out or not, but they released a new size called 'lumina' which is 7mm smaller in both hight and width than B5 so this is probably the one for you if still want one in this size.

Yes! Loving the new hair, it suits you perfectly!

Haha, funny but true! Well you are not alone. :)

Your hair color and eyes just POP and you look lovely. Green looks good on you, and I love your fox pin. Agreed that sketchbooks are a wonderful gift to oneself. I am enjoying your videos so keep doing what you're doing because it's working. Your two pieces turned out really cute and I like that they're like the illustrations at the beginning of a children's book. Have a great weekend, thank you for the video.

Hi! I just found your channel and I love it! Love watching you work! Beautiful use of color. So, I have a suggestion for varnishing. Maybe try a spray varnish? A light coat shouldn’t move your water soluble Media around and it won’t be as shiny? I’ve subscribed! Can’t wait to see more ! Thank you!

Hello Marie! Thank you so much for the compliments! Happy to have you here! I actually put satin varnish so why it's shiny, maybe I will try putting matt next time. I also could try with spray varnish like you said, thank you! Yes, not the way how to varnish, as I needed to wait at least some of the days so everything would be 100% dry. :) Thank you!

I genuinely thought that this was your real hair colour as it suits you so much! It's perfect with the colour of your eyes and skin. Now back to watching the video... :)

Hello Natasha! :) Wow I got starstruck when you commented, as you are the fellow creators I really enjoy watching! Been following you for a while now. :) Thank you for the compliment about hair! My natural hair colour is dirty blonde, but I feel this looks even better. :D :) Hope you found this video about Pith sketchbooks useful! I really love this UK brand and paper is great for mix media, especially Oroblanco!

@@kriksis Aw, thank you! It's so nice to know that you enjoy watching my videos too. :) I'd actually already ordered a couple of Pith Oroblanco sketchbooks when I found your video - they're waiting to be included in my next art haul! They're beautiful and such amazing quality. I love that I'm able to lay them out completely flat too. It's going to make working across a double page spread so much easier!

First of all: Love the hair color. It looks fantastic on you, and you were totally right -- it makes your eyes just sing. :) Secondly: holy moly! I thought I might pick up a couple of the sketchbooks, but it's telling me that it's ten THOUSAND pounds to ship to the US. No lie. 10000. They look like fantastic books, but I think my husband would disown me if I paid $14K for a sketchbook. :D :D :D

Thank you Elizabeth! I wasn't sure in first two days, but now I'm supper happy that I took the risk and coloured hair. :) WOW! So sorry I actually didn't do research about shipping prices to the US. I guess it's because of brexit or some other reasons. I hope shipping prices to different countries will go down at some point, as these are really good sketchbooks.

Hi Elizabeth I just spotted your comment and thought I would explain! Unfortunately, we don't currently offer shipping to the US, we only launched in November 2020 and are still finding our feet in Europe before we launch to the US. We have however just launched a selection of products with a retailer that ships globally. www.endclothing.com/us/catalogsearch/results?page=1&q=pith I hope you can find what you are looking for!
