    Amazing video, very inspiring! My main goal for this 2024 is stop bying new art suplies and use all ones that I have, donate ou sell the materials what I doesn't like.

      Yeesh, I have had this problem since restarting on my art journey. Rather than spend time sketching or coloring, I spent tons of cash on various art supplies. A huge regret right now, but I’ll have to gain the motivation of using all of them to become a better artist.

    • @s.terris9537
      @s.terris9537 Před 6 měsíci

      I have a similar goal! I see now that my impulse shopping of art supplies is related to avoidance of actually sitting down to sketch or paint, which is a form of anxiety about facing the blank page. I want to turn my anxiety around by seeing what I can do with what I already have.

    • @EmilyOlsonArt

      Love that! Having tons of supplies should feel very liberating-you can experiment to your heart’s content! 🙌😀

    Moving mid-year and have to purge. lol. It’s a long distance move back to my hometown and a new home. My brain is working overtime. I want a dynamite colorful, organized art room. I’m looking for ideas? Thanks for the motivating speech. I’m a beginner for life. But that’s ok. Thanks to artist like you i am able to take your classes.

    Wow, I am the most cynical person ever and I would NEVER choose Joy as my year long goal (barf) --- BUT, for some reason, I found this video encouraging, inspiring, thoughtful, reassuring, and calming. I might even try the suggestions and I can't believe I said that. You are clearly a very talented CZcamsr! You have a terrific way of explaining things in a practical way. I have learned so much from your videos on equipment and painting techniques--especially the ones on various easels and plein air painting. Thanks so much and I sincerely hope you have a great year of Joy!

    As usual Emily your wisdom in art and life doesn't disappoint! I was so cheered (and refocused!) by this. The holidays this year have been difficult, so what a much needed joy to see this video pop up. Now I have something positive to focus on for 2024.
    I have enjoyed my Watercolor Mastery membership immensely, but admittedly not as consistently as I should have. So, right away I need to make consistency a priority. I did set a self-challenge in 2023, and that was to overcome my fear of portraits, and I did that by plunging into a 30-Day portrait-painting challenge! So I did have that win. Thank you so much for all you give to us as a community! We love you and Happy New Year!

    Some of these suggesting are things that I really need to do. I have done very little painting this past year do to other commitments. But this next year is going to be time for me. My number one goal will be to paint at least 2-3 times every week, and to also share what I paint. I usually don't do that because I tend to compare my work to others (bad habit). Have a Happy New Year and I look forward to competing more of the watercolor mastery lessons. Thank you.

    İ feel myself very lucky that i watched all your videos. And i feel that i learned a lot from you. Thanks… the first day of this year i bought 10 holbein watercolor tubes to make my own palette inspired by you and my experiences. I bought arches paper… and now i am missing a brush. But i couldn’t afford the black velvet silver brush. Can you recommend me a more affordable one. I have one pure squarel brush and a couple of synthetic. But i am struggling. This mount its my birthday an maybe i can buy a present to my self. It will be very meaningful to me if you recommend me brushes… i am from Turkey and because of the exchange rates and custom fees the brushes are more expensive… i am gratefull… happy new year.
