❤what a simple, exciting and perfect activity for this 85 yo beginning watercolor devote. Thank you Ellen
It’s not even Christmas, and I am not nearly done with summer. But I happened across this CZcams video and I just had to comment. What a talent you are …. you take nothing and make it something wonderful! I love these cards and you just might’ve put me in the Christmas spirit even though it’s 90° here in North Carolina, thank you Ellen for all of your contributions to the art world and for the amateur artists that enjoy you so much.
Thank you, Ellen, these are great! I’m glad to hear someone else that says “poin-set-ta” in stead of ‘“poin-set-ti-ah”! When I grew up we said it like you, then the last 10 years or so they started saying it the other way. It may be right, but I still like it the other way😁
I loved them, Ellen... thanks for sharring!!!
You are so welcome!
Ellen, you are so awesome. I can't wait to join you on one of your retreats!
are you coming to France or Spain??
I wish. Maybe next time. Had to buy a new roof instead.
You are amazing make a great cheerleader for those of us who are a bit timid about our painting.
Stunning and so easy to follow. Thank you so much!!!!!!!
you're welcome!
Really enjoy metallic paint. can't wait to do the tree. Thanks
Hope you enjoy it!
I am a beginner watercolor fan, with a passion for the medium, and I find your gift and style perfect for me. Ilike the loose abstract Images you produce.
Oooh pretty and festive.

Just simply beautiful, I did not think I could make these amazing cards but I will be trying this as soon as I can. Ho Ho Ho all the way.
It's so much fun all the clever little things that you come up with. I always paint some sort of Christmas cards, but this year, my brother died 17 days ago, and it's been hard thinking of something that even though it would have been normal, wasn't overwhelming. I didn't want to bring everyone else down too. This is the perfect thing. Thank you so much!!!
Sorry you lost your brother. Sending you prayers.🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Black is just the ticket. Next year will be better.
Great I think I can do that you make it look so easy thank you so much for showing us.
You are so welcome

This is wonderful! I was looking for an idea for a watercolor class for kids. Perfect! Who doesn’t love gold paint!
everyone !
Wow, this was so amazing and inspiring. You really get my imagination going and I love the idea of masking out the triangle for the tree. I’m just a beginner - you tell me a bit more about the aerosol spray you had at the beginning? Is this to stop the watercolour painting from being damaged? Thank you ❤
I have the spray in my amazon shop- link in description box
