hi everyone! ♡ in this cozy little video i’m unboxing and reviewing the ohuhu waikiki 36 acrylic markers (their pump brush acrylic markers), and i take you along for the whole process—from opening the set to swatching all the colors. i love doing this part because you can really see the vibe of the palette right away, and it helps me figure out which shades i want to reach for first when i’m planning an illustration. after swatching, i make two simple “pop up flowers” illustrations with the markers, so you can see how they actually look on paper (not just in the barrel). i walk through an easy way to build the flower shapes and make them feel a little more 3D and bouncy, like they’re popping off the page. if you want something relaxing to draw/paint with me, this is such a cute beginner-friendly idea—and it’s also a fun way to test new markers without feeling pressured to make a perfect finished piece.
