@@EvanAndKatelyn2Possibly a Bob Ross challenge where you only use those UV paints that are pretty much clear until you turn on the black light. It would make an extra challenge not knowing how it's going until you flip the lights at the end. Or maybe that would just be an unnecessary amount of stress. It could go either way.
I loved the edit when they were discussing Kaitlyn's background, really showed how so many ideas can cause a lot of confusion. And the juxtaposition with Evan at 24:55 was so funny. The end result was great for both paintings, but Kaitlyn's is really stunning and creepy in the best way.

good to teach kids that mistakes are not the end of the world, you can improvise or try again!
I've never watched Alice in Wonderland or read the book, but Katelyn's painting seems to fit in with the overall theme and aesthetic of Alice in Wonderland quite well! Interesting fact for you, there's actually a neurological disorder that's most commonly called "Alice in Wonderland Syndrome" because it causes people to hallucinate and during these hallucinations, items and objects can appear bigger than normal or smaller than normal. It's most common in children who almost always outgrow it by the time they reach adulthood, but it's believed that Lewis Carroll suffered from the disease himself which is what gave him the concept for the book.
Imagine someone stays over and then in the middle of the night they just wakeup to see that alice art. I would nope my way right out of that house " sorry your house is too haunted for me at this moment"

@@EvanAndKatelyn2 Add a motion detector to the setup! Imagine the scene: You're getting close to the picture, and for two seconds or so, the UV comes on... By the time the 'WTF?!?' moment registers, and you turn back around, UV has gone back off, leaving you guessing "Did I just really see that?" For extra potential, add a timer, so that the light _doesn't_ come on again for the next X minutes after that (nothing a few pretty easy lines of Arduino code couldn't handle...) - but then, that _may_ be a bit _too_ far on the 'gaslighting' side 😬, and you may never have guests again...
Sand painting is often used to finish backgrounds in animal enclosures! It helps blend edges and fill gaps of background faux rock elements so it looks like one piece
Few painting tips: If you roll your paint brush as you drag it through your paint you will get a more pointed tip. And the brushes you are using look to be more water color brushes, if you get brushes with more snap (firmer) it easier to control for acrylic.
My favorite colors are the Neurtal colors.

You should do like a 48 hours in the craft room thingy (like Moriah Elizabeth did) where u both just do a tonne of lil projects lol
Ooh, I've used UV-changing nail polishes to do ~disappearing~ nail art before! Indoors, it looked like nothing was there but when I was in the sun, my nails read, "If you can read this, take me inside" haha. The trouble is that windows block the kind of UV light that makes the pigments change and I didn't have a UV flashlight, so I had to sit on my porch to paint it or else I couldn't see what I was doing.
Dude... Katelyn... you friggen killed that. Looks awesome!
It would have been kinda neat if you used the invisible paint to make shipwrecks under the surface. Ooooh, or a skeleton crew on the deck of a ship!
Sand paint is a real thing and it's really cool! Usually you get thick paint and mix it and end up with cool textured paintings. The best part of it? Blind people can enjoy it too! If you add multiple different textures to paints, people can feel what you've painted. It kind of reminds me of that shaving foam mixed with paint trick that went around a few years ago.

What a neat idea, a tactile painting 😮
I feel like Evan's painting is a great summer painting, while Katelyn's painting of Alice is more autumnal. In either case, they both need to be available as sweaters, t-shirts, and posters/prints in every department store across North America and online. 💯❤❤❤
0:47 we wholeheartedly appreciate Evan's committment to take his whole art outside whenever he wanted to look at the color change though
Have you guys considered using a wet pallet? It might help with the paint-drying-out-before-you-use-it issue. They are super easy to DIY if you don't want to buy one.
We did sand painting when I was in grade school. I think it was part of native American studies. If my memory is correct (and it may not be) it was regular colored paints that had sand added just for texture.
Sometimes I honestly don't believe that glow paint works as well as you guys show it does but WOWWWWWWWW those end results!!! I LOVE the photochromic paint, it's so AWESOME! The way Katelyn mixed it in with the background and stuff, so amazing 🤩 And the bloody trail in Evan's painting omg 🙏 I feel like Katelyn's is a PERFECT Halloween decoration and Evan's is more normal house decor except BOOM actually a murder scene 🤭
Okay, so as much as I really do love Evans ocean scene, I really, really, really love Katelyn's "Alice" the most. That's a piece I'd buy to put on my wall fast. ❤
Wow, both paintings are amazing! I love how tranquil Evan's looks until you realize the sharks and the blood trail in the dark light, and I really love Katelyn's rendition of Alice! Keep up with the amazing job you guys!
Suggestion I would have given Evan: use the invisible paint to draw Kraken tentacles.
The editing on this goes all out and it’s great
Man I am constantly SO impressed with Katelyn's artistic skills - her painting turned out AMAZING!
Evan- What do you do if you dont have a paint color that you want? Kaitlyn- cry 😂😂😂 LOOL YOU GUYS ARE TOO FUNNY
Theres actually a ton of acrylic additives that have really interesting textures. Theres one called coarse pumice gel (there are other names for it, but thats the golden brand one) that is like sand and its really cool!!
@acousticeel9695
6 ай бұрын
A lot of the funky texture additives are popular in miniature and diorama painting! They’re usually marketed at tabletop rpg players, and a lot of it is environmental textures like mud, dirt, sand, snow, and concrete.
The glow in the waves looks just like bioluminescent algae!!! Also I think another cool background idea would be the color shift red as roses, so they show up white in normal light and in the uv it "paints the roses red"
I love how Evan’s waves with the UV light look like those fluorescent algae (or i don’t remember if it was plancton) that happens in reality 🤲🏻🌊
Was the paint mixer a hand massager as well?? Lewis Carol's story was actually rather satirical and had a creepy element. So Disney's Alice in Wonderland meets Halloween vibe is perfect! 👍 But Cheshire is my favorite character!! I would love a painting with him in it!! 🐈⬛ Evan, Katelyn is turning you into an artist!! Bravo!! 👏👏
A mix of sand, crackle paint, and magic is what Citadel uses to make their ground texture paints
8:10 Pro tip for the sand. Mix it with glue instead of paint medium. Just paint it on, then sprinkle sand on top like glitter. Let it dry then paint another layer of the sand glue mix to seal. You don’t have to do a bunch of layers to get it filled in. The reason you don’t just put down glue add and then seal is to help avoid gaps and it gives more texture. Sealing with the sand mix won’t flatten the texture the way just sealing with glue alone will. 15:17 We need to figure out how to seal the galaxy water in resin BenWorx sealed water in resin so it can be done. (Please wear the science coated when you do it) To display them you should set up some motion sensor UV lights. So when you walk by them they change. They would be awesome in the dark! I love how the “blood” looks like the wake of the boat. It looks like they are trying to row away. Alice looks like something so sweet that would be in a child’s room. Not the sinister nightmare to come.
I was having the weirdest deja vu with the Alice in Wonderland one then I remembered I watched this live. Still love to watch it tho!!
I think the sand paint turned out really well! Why isn’t it a thing?
I made paint like this too! I loved the hidden messages you could put into your paintings. I made one where it was a bride holding a bouquet but when it was under uv light, the flowers in the bouquet turned into handcuffs (some marriages be like that) I LOVE the way your painting turned out Katelyn!
I have done desert scenes like this where it goes from day to night. It's so fun. I am going to do this again. I just used neon acrylics and regular and it came out really great! I want to try these UV paints. Out bathrooms are lit by blacklights year round lol
Always remember wet brushing with just water to remove/dry brush away what you don't want is also an option!
Alice in Wonderland is my favorite movie. The painting turned out absolutely amazing. A shirt with the front of her being normal and the back as creepy Alice would be the coolest thing ever
ooh the first time i caught you guys streaming on twitch while i was scrolling i saw you painting this stuff! idk why its making it more exciting to see the vid come out haha
If Evan and katelyn decide to sell those prices I will sell anything for them those are the coolest things I have EVER seen!!!
I loved being here for this stream haha. I think everyone felt the “we’re all mad here” after the amount of back and forth and suggestions from chat lol. Super fun watching the edit and knowing the behind the scenes watching it live 🫶 y’all are amazing!
Vallejo actually make texture paints for use with dioramas and miniatures. They have everything from sand, stone textures, thick mud (the mud has sawdust and sand for chunkiness), snow, water effects.
This is the first video that I watched uncut and then the edited version, I can safely say I LOVE BOTH!!!
Those are pretty cool! You should make shadow boxes for them with built-in UV lights so you can just flick a switch and they go from normal to crazy.
The Alice painting is going to give me nightmares… Awesome job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Katelyn’s belongs in a freaking museum
OMG I love Creepy Alice! I have a wall hanging that's all melty style with "We're all mad here" text but I'm actually giving it away 'cause it's a bit too "trippy hippie" style for my aesthetic
Frame them, add UV LEDs around the frame. Add some circuits to turn the LEDs on during night. And turn off during day.
Lol I almost had a jump scare when I saw the keychain. Judy was the only one who saved me. She was adorable.
Painting with sand is a historical method. It was used to give wooden structures a stone appearance. George Washington's Mount Vernon used this method. And your color changing paint reminds me of the movie Orphan.
That Alice is the most beautifully cursed thing I've seen in a long time. Possibly ever… Katelyn almost writing "words are hard" just goes to show how hard words truly are 😂
It's actually adorable that two college graduates with a DIY channel didn't make little paper funnels.
There is sand paint. It's called texture paste, and it's used for miniatures and diaramas.
The Alice painting may be my favourite painting I've seen from Katelyn! So cool and so creepy!
You guys should try out those “wet” pallets for acrylic paint!! I can’t remember the exact name for it, lol. It might help your paint stay liquid longer for the glow mixed paint. 😊🩷
Y'all are amazing!!! I'm recovering from surgery, and having found y'alls channel has helped immensely Thank y'all for sharing your lives with us
I wasn’t excited about this project. Painting isn’t really my favorite. But then I saw the Alice artwork in its full glory and OMG amazing!!! I had the watch the full video and I’m very glad I did :)
Katelyn - your illustrating skills are AMAZE-BALLS!! I mean I know you're web designer [? I THINK!!], but I don't actually know if you've ever shown them like this prior to this video. ANY-WHOOOOOO - you guys are so entertaining whilst testing stuff/techniques & explaining stuff scientifically ! ALOHA & MAHALO NUI LOA! 💜🤙💜🐾💜🐶💜🐺💜🐾💜🤙💜
Mini wargaming has all kinds of terrain paints: sand, mud, and more! They're expensive though. Maybe a Buy or DIY between them and your homemade sand paint would be fun.
19:40 you can actually! Theres a beach that have luminous algae so at night the sea glows. I dont remember the name but yall could go for a lil date or something. Yall deserve a good time cuz you guys are like the cutest couple ever❤
Any chance of another run of the larger plushies for those that recently discovered the channel(s)?
As someone who paints warhammer miniatures , we use sand paint with some pigment in it for our small bases.
Both paintings turned out amazing! My favourite parts are Evan's glowy waves, and just how well hidden the creepiness is in Katelyn's without the UV light :D
Katelyn's whole concept was amazing and she executed it so well! Incredible
evan's painting reminds me of the "sea of stars" phenomenon, where bioluminescent algae that glow when something touches them grow on beaches, so during the day, the beach looks normal, but at night the whole beach looks like a, well, sea of stars!. it's a really cool nature thing :)
If you want to make sand paint you could also make a mixture of sand, paint, and *glue!* I experimented with this for a project at my art school and you can actually get some really fun textures :) I ended up painting like the Latinos the first humans made on the inside of caves. It was really cool :))
I thought sand paint was a thing already. It's an add-in for acrylics, similar to heavy body.

I remember watching the full version of this video. The back and forth on what to do in the background of Katelyn's painting was real, lol. 😂. Turned out delightfully creepy at the end. Evan's was more subtle and slightly menacing in a way. Like, was the boat leaking blood due to someone getting bitten and getting away from a shark or was someone murdered and the murder wanted to use the sharks to get rid of the body? 🤔 👀💦
The yellow paint and Evans picture idea made me think of a similar painting that has a sun in it during the day, but then goes to a moon during the night
Everything you guys do is amazing, but Katelyn’s painting is WOW!! So incredibly cool. That on a large scale, people would buy. That’s awesome
NEURTAL WHITE team ftw 5:02 😂 Btw these white glowing waves are awesome!
Watching the sand paint and I bet it would apply well using a sponge to give more texture and more natural! But love y’all’s videos so much !
Evan's beach looks calming and then disturbing with UV. On the other hand, Katelyn's is nightmare inducing with the UV. I love it.
You guys should do salt painting! You make a design with glue then add the salt and let it dry then paint the salt!
Loving her idea. Reminds me of the movie ,Orphan. The first one not second movie. She did her paintings jus like Katelyns but more on the demonic side.
The Alice painting is AMAZING!
Id be interested to see some faux resin stained glass with the photochomic pigments so it changes colour when it catches the sun!!!
Katelyns turned out AWESOME!!! Evans is great too.
Duuuuuuuude! I think both of these are my new favorite pieces by you guys. Both of them are so stinking tinking cooooll!!!
