One of the things I appreciate most about this series (and all of your tutorials) is that I use Katoclay and I know that any technique or color recipe you cover does not have to be "translated". I am able to reproduce your results faithfully because we are using the same clay. I also like that you don't use a lot of fancy tools; just basic stuff so I can just jump right into the tutorial without having to buy some special item. I really value the time, thought, generosity, and effort you put into these tutorials.
Thank you, Gritty! I think I’d like to do more color mixing formulas, they’re a challenge but doing they’re fun and I am seeing what colors it takes to achieve mixed those colors and how sometimes the mixes are so simple. Still learning!
Thank you again Donna for a fabulous video, you've worked so very hard over many years, designing a brand of clay, all the accessories, book's and a fabulous style of jewellery that you well deserve never to run out of clay etc as an established artist, I feel extremely lucky to be able to watch your tutorials and thank you again 💜 💜
Thank you, Tracey! ❤️
Watching the details of all of your projects is so inspiring. I have to say I have been side tracked by each of your Sunday tutorials (I can’t wait to discover what you are going to share ) and realized I need to finish one project before looking at another. LOL. Bugs are the next on my to do list, but 1st I need to finish reducing Mud canes! Thank you for your creativity and your expertise.
My pleasure, Lane! I can’t wait to see what you do! Hugs, D😊❤️
Absolutely gorgeous Donna! 😍
Thank you so much, Deb! Happy New Year! D
Oh The Boss is THE BEST! Mine is MIA right now bc half of our boxes are in storage after we moved from a 3 sooty house to a 3 bedroom condo and are renovating the kitchen and master bath 😮. My hands and wrists definitely miss The Boss 😢
I love the Boss!!! Happy New Year! D
Donna: “it’s not too bad” = perfection 😅 wonderful, beautiful, fantastic! Thank you for doing absolutely everything taking the time it needs.😊
Exactly what I needed! Thank you.
Glad it helped! hugs, D
You are very fortunate to never run out of clay. I doubt there are very many who can say that. I look forward to the day where I can nest enough that I don’t need to worry as much.
I know, Lynn, I am so lucky. Got to make sure you all don’t end up with pounds of unused clay!
I like your colors. 🎉
What a beautiful cane. I’ve always tended to pick the bright colors but I’m loving the black, white and neutrals.
Thank you, Kathleen , I tend to forget the neutrals myself. These canes help me remember how much they offer. I will use them more, definitely!
Oh my gosh I love this! I also so enjoy watching your videos
Yay!❤️
Donna I really like this series! You’re a great teacher too. 😊
Thank you, Susan, more parts to come, my friend.
Fantastic pattern. Tfs
👍❤️
Love your logical explanations and color mapping, thank you!
Thank you, Pamela!❤️
So excited to see what we do with all these elements together!!!!! You are so awesome, thank you for sharing your time and expertise with us!!!
My pal! Big hugs❤️
I am so glad to see this video! I got home late and wanted to relax! I am learning so much from you. I am not yet making anything. I have everything I need... almost. But we are in the process of farmwork. No worries and no problems!!! Okay then!!! THANK YOU :) Blessings and Re Jouir -Darlene (& Scott)
Thank you, Dar! Farmwork is hard work but so rewarding. Good for you, kid! Big hugs, D❤️
It was interesting to see how you work out how much clay you need. Thank you Donna
Will measure more carefully for you folks. The scale really helps me with this.
Gorgeous! I love this. And the colors too. Thank you very much ❤️
They are luscious, aren’t they? I just love them!
Love this xxx
Hi Donna , Love your videos. Thank you for making them. I do have difficulty with proportion. I appreciate that you give us amounts of clay in ozs. But, for me, it would be very helpful to have some measurements. For instance, the size of the brown and gold canes before cutting the size of the black cane and maybe the bullseye cane plus an overall measurement of the cane size. All this before reduction. Thank you again for producing these wonderful videos.
Good suggestion, Pat, will try to measure! 😊❤️
Thank you Donna. You are terrific. The Mud Cloth canes a so cool. I purchased your earlier video several years ago. I don’t think I ever got around to making the fabulous necklace. Last night I found my handouts and went over them. I am going to try to make it maybe using your new canes and some I am trying to create on my own. I love your work and videos. They always get me inspired.
super pattern! It looked like a lot of work until you see the final product and it all becomes worthwhile!
Thank you, Flo!
Thankyou Thankyou Donna for sharing your expertise and your talent. I hang on your every word! I am SO glad you are enjoying The Boss. My hands hurt for you as I watched your many hours of claying. Happy New Year 💞
Lynne, thank you so much for the Boss, I love that thing! Big hugs, D
I did enjoy this class. At first I saw it was an hour and prepare myself with something to drink and nibble on while watching. Once it started I never took a sip or nibbled nor did it feel like an hour.
Awesome tutorial.
It was also interesting how you used the iPad to create the design. I haven’t explored a drawing app yet. I’m still with the paper and pencil.
I know if I tried working on the screen the size would be shifting all the time.
You’re right about the size, Denise. I started printing. Check out procreate - you can size the canvas in inches (8.5x11) and not try to figure out pixel size…❤️
Oops Donna I AM NOT AN ESTABLISHED ARTIST 😍😍🤭🤭🤭 put commas etc in wrong place's I'm a total beginner so grateful 💜
Hi Donna, I love the cookies in my packages! I wanted to say I appreciate how you are jumping the learning curve to post better videos. Not that the early ones were bad, but just how you are orienting in front of the camera, etc. and you seem more relaxed as well. I did seem to notice that the volume was a little low, but that might be just this post. I am enjoying the unfolding story of making mudcloth canes, very much. I am wondering if you have tried Tiny Pandora's acrylic tools for holding the ends of canes so there is less clay waste and more control of the size at the ends. I am jonesing for The Boss acrylic roller! Also where did you get your acrylic breyer? Thanks always for create content! Love your channel.
Thank you! I am trying but I still wander off! I upped the resolution, too. I had some acrylic discs that I used but I just went back to the old way. I live the Boss! I am so lucky, it was a great gift. I can’t recall who makes that old brayer. I’ve had it for ages. It’s old! Glad you like the cookies, better than candy I think and who doesn’t love Oreos? Big hugs, D❤️
@@DonnaKatoArt I had thought instead of the cat sticker, why not place a border of tape outside the frame and you'll know not to reach outside the box without knowing you are out of bounds? It might not work for closeups, but for widershots for sure. I appreciate the higher resolution! Oreos and nutter butters unite!
Dear Donna! I love this tutorial and the series idea, it's great!. Looking forward to next episodes😀 May I ask what is (roughly) the temperature in your studio? I noticed you're wearing warm clothes and sometimes I notice my clay gets too soft which I believe may have sth to do with the temp, hence the strange question😁 Thank you, have a lovely day.
Hi Dorota, my studio is cold, it’s in the basement. I would say it runs between 55 and 60. Sometimes the heater fan kicks in! I also have a small ceramic heater under my big, wooden, Ikea table. It’s been awfully cold this year but we will make it through!
Thank you! I just checked how much it is in Celsius and, wow!, it's much lower than my usual temperature. I fully understand the heater under the table and warm clothes...
Thank you so much my dear Donna. I will give it a go, not with the amount of Clay you used maybe half🤗🙏🏻🫶🏻💕🇨🇦
Have fun! ❤️
