You have that magic touch with your brush that makes everything you paint extra special ! I just love these adorable whimsical cats ! Simply adorable just like the 2 of your cat paintings I have in my home ! My ever favorite is the one with the little mouse on the table and the mischievous cat looking at it !! I have it in our dinning room and whenever I look at it I get to feel your presence and also Jon’s who is as precious as You ! I send You, Jon, our sweet Mods and all my dear friends my best regards and blessings. Special HAH to You and Jon. Love always….Lorraine ❤️🤗🥰❤️❤️❤️🎨🙏🏼

    Wow, Ginger this truly is a "cat's meow" painting! Beautiful colours, fun little kitties to paint, I can’t wait to give it a go... Thank you Ginger and Jon for creating such a fun painting for tonight’s tutorial. Love the auction commercial, one can’t help but have a good laugh with you. I was wondering if you've thought about doing another painting like the mystery Gnome painting, it was so cool how you painted it and kept us guessing. Happy Mother's Day Ginger. TTFN HAH 🎨🖌🫶

    Thrilled I caught this live yesterday. What a fun and colorful little piece. Inspired me to paint one for my Cat's Meow friend, she will adore this! She had a cat clinic for years before moving down here. I'm into floor cloth canvas painting and your three kittys painting is IT next!! Such a pleasure to see you both. Love your makeup Ginger, very nicely done. That Auction promo segment for your paintings is a HOOT! Laugh to tears. Thank YOU!💕

    I haven't painted any type of cat/cats since I had to put my 2 cats to sleep 18 years ago because my heart is still broken. But I must say I'm going to try this painting.in a couple of weeks when we get back from vacation. And I'm joining as an orange member then also. I love the style of this painting. I know there's probably a technical term for it but I love the messy look. More paintings in this style would be great. Thank you for taking the time to teach us. And thank you for the intermission full of laughs.

    I had to work on Tuesday & missed this live.
    Very Cute! And I learn something new each week.
    I'm not a big fan of abstract but might try this. I prefer to learn about the techniques of the ODG. AI might be the newest thing but it's not my taste.
    But I still love Learning new & fun things to try

    • @gingercooklive
      @gingercooklive  Před 23 dny

      we have a lot of ODGs that are done with AI... which can do what ever you mind can make up. Believe it or not, this type of painting is difficult to create and the the AI is very helpful is generating that style.
