hey guys it's rae here and welcome to a very very highly requested video my art studio / art supply
tour this video truly truly means a lot to me i'm very excited for today's video back in 2016 i did
a video where i showed my art supplies you know it was stuff from dollar tree and art supplies that
the college was kind enough to let me have and old hand-me-down beat-up boxes that my mom gave me
and even back then i was really really happy with the art supplies that i had i mean at one point in
the video i literally said "and you guys know i'm not bragging or anything it's uh just what i have"
fast forward from 2016 to 2021 i am beyond lucky to have not one but two dedicated studios tons
of art supplies that i have been collecting for years and years and years and i just want to say
that absolutely none of this none of this would be possible without you whether you've watched every
single video that i've ever made or maybe this is your first time ever watching my channel thank you
for watching zach helped me film this video he's not very comfortable with the camera yet so i
might be a little shaky at times but regardless i am very excited for this video so without further
ado let's go ahead and start starting with my very first studio the room that we are in now
studio number one now in this room i spend a mass majority of my time this is where i edit my videos
plan everything i sit and think i have my morning coffee film my intros i mean i do
absolutely everything in this room there is a lot to go over so we're just gonna jump
right into it starting with these two knockoff ikea drawers that i've had for a few years now
as you're about to see i am absolutely insane when it comes to organizing like everything
has to be perfect starting off with drawer number one this one is labeled my extra drawer
boom i love how i said everything has to be organized and then i open up like the least
organized drawer in existence this drawer contains all of my extra art supplies that
are completely new brand new i don't have a place for them and i don't want to open them just yet
so for example we have pencils brand new mica palettes brand new ohuhus that i've
never gotten the chance to open before so yeah you can kind of pick up the vibe on this drawer
it's brand new things that have yet to be open and just don't have a place in my studio yet
this brings us to drawer number two this is where i keep all of my inks oh my god see this
is what i'm talking about when i say organized this is what i'm talking about in this drawer
we have all of my white highlighter pens we have all of my pure black india inks we have
all of my fine liners here so many different brands pretty much every size you can think of
we have all of my sharpies which i actually bought these for a video a long time ago
and then i just never did the video and now i just have a bunch of sharpies next drawer i have
my watercolors oh my god the way this drawer is organized it brings me so much serotonin
and in this drawer i have the entire collection of arteza's paints i have my professional winsor and
newton watercolor grade i have my premium masters touch watercolor tubes and if i had to pick
one singular watercolor out of this whole entire drawer it looks really ugly the packaging and
that's just because i've had it for so long but oh my god this watercolor is called payne's gray and
whenever you paint with this instead of a black color it leaves all of your dark shadows this
deep vibrant blue and oh my god it just looks absolutely incredible with drawings it was
actually my college professor a long time ago who got me hooked on this shout out to you mic next up
we have my weird /rare art supply drawer if you've been watching my channel for a while there's a
very high chance that you recognize some of the art supplies in this store 100 year old watercolor
supreme pencil the most watched video on my channel the gucci pen video watercolor watch
the markers and the letter that jazza sent me from the jazzy art box collection my 100 year
old watercolor palette another fan favorite of my channel we have the blackest paint in existence
i absolutely love novelty weird strange art supplies and i think they're so awesome i just
can't let them go you know next we're gonna go to my charcoal drawer in this drawer i
have my pastels all of my charcoal pencils my basket of tortillons i go through these things
i go through these things like what's something that you go through a lot
toilet paper i don't know if that's gross i don't know and i also keep my black and white
colored pencils in here and the reason that i use white colored pencils with my charcoal
drawing is because white charcoal pencils just aren't intense enough i guess with my drawings
i want my shadows and highlights to be *bam* like in your face and you just can't get those super
white highlights with a white charcoal pencil you know so yeah that's my little hack for you guys is
use a white colored pencil for charcoal and for these last two drawers i have my office supplies
which surprisingly i actually come to this drawer a lot and i have my newly added crayola drawer
in this drawer i have my crayons watercolor palette crayola colored pencils
everything crayola is in this drawer. in this drawer i have you can't see me
i have all my watercolor palettes in here i have the famous jelly gouaches that pretty
much every single art youtuber has reviewed i have my oldest watercolor palette which i've had since
2011 and it's broken it's beat up but i absolutely refuse to throw this away i will take this to the
grave with me this drawer contains refills of my most used art supplies i'm always needing
sketch pencils white prismacolor colored pencils if you want to know how artists on instagram blend
their colored pencils this is how if you come down here i have all of my watercolor accessories stuff
next up i have my set pens mica pigment set pablo picasso's oil
pastels i mean he himself didn't actually use this specific kind
but pablo picasso used this specific brand and to complete this drawer i have my pencil bags
like i like the option that i can just dump everything in a bag
go to starbucks and unpack and start drawing would i ever do it probably not but i like
the idea of it can you get a zoom in of tim curry please he's like my whole entire life
so yeah this wall is just like my poster decorative wall
and if you come over to this side of the wall we have something that i am so proud of and that is
my plants that i've managed to keep alive somehow i never get to show off my plants
to anybody and the fact that i'm able to keep this alive i'm gonna show them off right now
also something very cool in my studio that i think is a very underrated decoration i have a
disco ball and a light refracting crystal whenever the sunlight hits it just right during sunset it
reflects into the room and it just gives it this really cool sparkly rainbowy dotty kind of look
oh good job in this corner of the room we have my pc set up as well as my famous bunny chair i also
keep my ipad pro here as well as my apple pencil and i know it doesn't look like much now but at
night when this whole entire room is illuminated girl it looks absolutely stunning at night
in this corner of my room i have another uh sitting area where i come and just literally
sit sometimes i don't know if that's normal but i like to literally just sit here and think
and i have to have a pillow it's like a defense mechanism anytime i sit down i like to have a
pillow so i can go like this and just sit this is the area where i do all of my intros
and this brings me to my i guess like "work closet"
and this closet stores all of my sketchbooks
now i'm going to be completely honest here i tend to hoard sketchbooks forever i have gray toned,
mixed media, watercolor, arteza, ones that are pure black, i even have some from the dollar store
if you look back here i have even more sketchbooks these are all of my shorter smaller ones
and i also keep my large to mid-size brushes located in this closet as well
and back here i have literally the most game-changing thing of all time
i've wanted one of these since i was an a little kid
and that's a label maker i love my label maker i love love love labeling things so now that
you've seen um studio number one this takes us to studio numeral dos and this studio is pretty much
the total opposite of my first studio well my last one is like hyper feminine super bright colorful
bright pastel pink this one is much more toned down relaxed calming cool even a little bit like
dark at some point so this room is i would say totally opposite of my first room so come on in
this room is solely dedicated to filming my main channel desk videos like every time you've seen
me do an unboxing it's in this room i have my chair where i sit down it's already covered
totally in paint and the desk i don't even bother cleaning it at this point i've spilled
so much paint that every single time i film a new video i just go over it with a new coat of paint
so at this point there's probably like hundreds of layers of paint on this poor little desk and
then of course we have bowie's bed she has to have a bed in literally every single room in my
house so she can be comfortable everywhere she goes everywhere she goes and you're probably
wondering why there is a drawer missing whenever i film i have a lot of trash like when i do unboxing
and instead of having to stop the video move all the lights around pull out of my chair
walk to the trash can every single time i now take the easy route and just shove it in here
bIg bRaIn and we're gonna come over to this side of the room and i'm sure you saw in the b-roll
that i had a plant up here in the corner yesterday when i was eating my lunch i heard like a loud
clunk and my plant actually fell from the ceiling onto my trash can and now i have a giant dent on
my trash can but it was aesthetic at one point i promise and also on this wall i have my famous
marker tower i would say this is probably only like a third of the markers that i actually own
get a good zoom in on larry he looks so cool with my pots yeah and if you saw my last video
where i used every single paint that i own you already know what's in this drawer this is my
paint collection so here i have my acrylics that i use most often like my very large tubes acrylic
down here i have my temper paints my very expensive culture hustle paints i bought the
whole entire set over here i have my old oil i have my oil paint collection i have my special
historical paints from ryan my paint dealer i have two very high-end brands that they're so
high-end i can't even pronounce the names i have my big tubes of oil paint like the neons
that i really love to use as well as like whites and browns and just like frequently
used oil paints i would say that this drawer alone is probably about four hundred dollars
worth of oil paint so yeah this is like my special fancy drawer that we don't touch next up i have my
student grade and somewhat professional winsor newton oil paints i have my small old paints
and down here to finish up my paint collection we have probably one of the most like
chef kissed well organized drawers that you will ever see get a good look at this
it is so so satisfying this drawer and honestly like a lot of this paint is kind of like craft
paint so it's not stuff that i would normally use but i'm just like in love with how this door looks
so i'm just going to keep it here pristine forever so over here i have my prismacolors faber castel
polychromos for some reason i have a cray-z art and my all-time favorite art supply probably ever
Caren dashe colored pencils now i realize that these are very very very pricey but oh
my god are they the best colored pencil you will ever ever find then this takes us to my closet
my second closet i have the rest of my markers i have some more pencils because i'm always always
always always using pencils random tools my pentax polaroid i was going to take a picture
but it's long dead pfft and over here i have my oil painting station like all the extra fancy
stuff that is required with oil painting i have it all set up perfectly to go whenever i need it
down here i have all my organizational stuff because i really really enjoy being organized
i have a fan that you can attach to the window so whenever i'm oil painting
it'll take out the fumes from inside and push them outside it's an absolute game
changer for anybody who's doing oil painting and then like i have this random bug that i
found a long time ago preserved in alcohol he was already dead when i found him by the
way zachs: fig beetle rae: yeah a fig beetle yeah but he's really cool he's like iridescent
and now i'm going to show you the best part of this whole room actually you stay there i'll be
right back this room is connected directly to a bathroom so yeah anytime i spill anything or i
need quick cleanup i quickly run in here i open the door with my elbow and then i quickly wash
my hands and it's been a game changer and yeah with that being said i think that is actually
it guys again i would be absolutely nowhere without you guys so thank you so much again
for watching if you haven't subscribed with notifications please be sure to do that
i hope you guys enjoyed my studio and yeah with that being said i will see you guys next video bye
