Can't thank you enough for all your calming, enjoyable, and learning to paint outside my comfort zone. This just proves that you are a joy that brightens my days and hopefully yours. Another wonderful tutorial that is bright/bold and full of happiness. Continue on your new journey full of fun paintings. Just being yourself is what I like and which always brings me to watch your today videos and all the ones shown, very refreshing. You're not alone in your so many ups and downs, I'm walking beside you. Take care 🤗🤗🤗I don't usually type much, more of an Emoji type 🤗🍁🍁🌷✨
Thanks so much Joan. Your friendship and support means the world to me, believe me ❤️❤️❤️
When my son lived at home supper (dinner if you wish) was sitting at the table and no TV on. Son is on his own, supper is in the living room watching TV. Usually a British program like Taskmaster or WILTY because new Canadian (or American) TV is mostly not very entertaining. Love to watch you paint, listen to your thoughts and follow along. Thank you so much.
I love Better Call Saul! Can't wait to try this piece!
❤ Diane, I truly LOVE this relaxing painting. Watching it again and then on to painting my own. You inspire this 73 yr young great grandmother in the US!
So glad Mellie that you enjoyed this one, so happy that you are having fun with watercolor !
Hello Diane, I don’t know what I would do without you right now! You are so holding me up ! I mean this! It’s great exercise as you say, and stress free ☺️
Hi Liz and thanks so much for your kind comment. I’m so glad I’m helping you at this time and I wish you better times ahead xxx
I’m gonna give this a whirl it reminds me of a quilt my Mother in Law did for us in her guest room in NC
I just can’t believe how your lovely ideas just keep flowing. Always a surprise and fun project to do and above all your calming voice that has a great effect on me.❤❤❤
Thank you so much! It means a great deal to me to hear that!
Rockford Files!! One of my all time faves.
Love it, Cagney and Lacey TV dinners no pressure emotionally or on pen. Keeping me company on my dog walk with lovely ideas 💓
Thank you to share a simple way to work with water color. Have a nice day
Thank you! You too!
I’m in bed it’s 1:05 am I want to jump out of bed and grab my supplies and paint along but then I know I’ll be tired in the morning. And I have a lot of art mothers do tomorrow but thank you Diane this is such a fun idea.
Yes, I enjoyed that one a lot! I'm sure you will too, it's very calming and undemanding!
Very cute. Loreal excellence is my brand. You're right..us pale faces need color!! A light peach lipstick goes a long way too.
I love the little glimpses of your life you share with us. ❤
This is a great idea for relaxing before bed. I often read or draw in bed before going to sleep. This is an excellent idea. Thank you
Glad it was helpful Anne and I hope you enjoy it. I'm thinking I'd do one for each season of the year - wouldn't that be a good idea, suggested by another sub. Lovely autumn colors, yummy!
My daughter also has celiac decease and your watercolor has been truly fun and love your little farm as my children grew up with all the experience of farming
It’s interesting to hear your comments about your daily life while you draw. We feel we know you better that way. Nancy Williams from oregon
Hi Diane, you have the best books!! thanks for sharing.
Yes...I've been doing these and the whimsical birds and cutting them into tags and journal cards for junk journals.. I was pleased you made this suggestion. I used to do realistic watercolors and it became so stressful that I stopped painting for many years..You introduced me to whimsy and loose and it is so relaxing. I'm loving painting again! This is one you can start , stop, come back to, rest in between...love it!
You are so welcome Carlotta, I feel pretty much the same way x
Thanx Diane,That was freeing and fun enjoyed the chit chat too! Enjoy you and your art always.. liked better call saul also!!..Jo
My heart fills with joy! Thank you so much! It's breakfast time at the moment and soon off to work. Longing home for continue watching! Hi from Sweden! 🥀🌱🌷
Wonderful Vivi, I’m so glad you love the videos!
I love your videos, your style, and your conversation. It's like painting with a friend, thanks so much!!
You are so welcome!
This is a very fun practice project - I can't wait to try. I too am a fan of the program Better Call Saul" this show never disappoints..Thank you for sharing!
I would definitely would frame this! I love this! ❤
I loove this!! It speaks to this 74-year-old woman who has never sketched and last painted when I was 7/8 from a kids paint box. I have rounded up supplies even for acrylic and have watched many many vids. I want to start with that page of green leaves that you did and turn into bookmarks for friends then try this. Also, the dragonflies. I love your style, the way you talk and encourage. Tfs
Hi Kathy and a warm welcome to the channel. I hope you enjoy the projects you’ve chosen!! I’m sure you will have a whole lot of fun!❤️
Beautiful!!!!! Thank you for sharing and for your lovely self💖🌀🌟
Thanks so much Ellani ❤️
Thank you. That was really relaxing to watch and I will try it for myself - even more relaxing!
I too have an elderly pet - he’s a 20 year old cat. He was having a bit of arthritis and when the vet put him on a pain killing drug, he was so much happier and could climb the stairs again. Also helps him sleep! You could try asking the vet for something to make your dog comfortable x
Hi there and thanks for your kind message. I take your point about the painkillers. We have found that aspirin given to her when she is uncomfortable seems to work and the vet said it was okay for dogs to take. My biggest problem at the moment with her is grooming. She is a long-haired dog and she absolutely DETESTS being groomed now, won't let me touch her. My husband usually holds her while I groom her, but he's just had major surgery and can't do anything, so I'm stuck. And there are no good groomers round here who will do anything bigger than a Yorkie. It's a problem and I must solve it soon. Thanks again, and hope you are enjoying the videos!
@@DianeAntoneStudio thank you for your reply. Yes, I’m enjoying the videos, especially the ones without music. And I never knew you could give aspirin to dogs! Cats can only have Metacam, which is really expensive, so it’s great that you can use aspirin for your old lady. I hope she recovers from her op. My old man also doesn’t like being groomed and has long hair. Haha, I was just thinking, we all get a bit grumpy as we get older (speaking personally you understand) :D
What a very fun and relaxing piece! By the way, I want to say what a fabulous job you and Tansin are doing with this whole undertaking, with all its demands! Well done ladies! ❤️
Thanks so much Posie for your constant friendship. It means everything to both of us ❤️❤️❤️
Love love love it all Thank you x
Thank you for this! I did it alongside you, and it was great fun!♥🌻🌷🌼
You are so welcome!
Relaxing ❤
I LOVE this!!! Painting paper this way can be used for all sorts of projects! I also love your calm, relaxing voice and style. You are a great inspiration...especially for someone like me who is a beginner with watercolor.
I do love this. I think a few cute animals or insects here and there would be fun to add. Thank you it is very inspirational and btw I love the rooster in the background. He takes me back to times past.
You are so welcome!
@@DianeAntoneStudio oh and this one also looks like it would be a beautiful placemat!
I love watching you paint, I try almost everything you do. I hear rooster in the background of your painting and my rooster at my door😂
So relaxing
Wow, that’s a lot of flowers. I haven’t got brush pens might have to do paint & ink. I could see filling this in slowly while watching or listening to something. I wouldn’t worry about the grey hairs. I’ve recently let mine go gray and some has turned quite white😳. I figure each strand was earned by some life experience.😁 It’s cheaper too.😂
Nice easy idea for new painters. Thank you!
You’re welcome 😊
So lovely. I could watch you paint all day. And I love your conversation!
Loved this
Great fun❤️
Hello Diane, I am finally watching this lovely tutorial.
I am with you here as well. I do not watch television at all. I do watch movies though, old movies mostly from 1930's-1950's. I use my tv to cast them too. Occasionally, I watch something on Netflix. Sometimes, it's months before I do.
But, daily, I watch youtube videos... when I come home and have a snack.
It's really a matter of personal censoring. I.e., what kind of thoughts do I want to bring within.
congrats on being a vegeterian. I think that's wonderful. sorry about your intolerances.
Thanks to your recommendation, I bought these poetique brush watercolor markers and then bought the big set because I simply LOVE them. Thank you.
Hi and thanks for this lovely comment, sorry for the delay in replying but here I finally am, and I hope you see this! You are very similar to me and my daughter, we never watch tv now, prefer to watch old things, as I think I said in this video. Personal censoring is the way to go, but I do struggle with that, sometimes forgetting to do it and getting carried away. Oh well, where’s my paint brush!
Love
Love your tutorials Diane!
I love this. I am not very good at spontaneuity, so I will definitely be giving this a go. I could get your hair colour here in the UK and send it. X
very fun!!
Beautiful💖💖💖
I so love your videos! They've really helped me become more relaxed in my art process. Thank youl
I love this! When I get back from grkids I’ll start by doing this one! Will be getting cut into shapes for cards. Thank you Diane for your inspiration and especially your chatting as you paint! Makes me 🤭
Love this how fun!
Thanks. This was very relaxing. I made it with markers.
How beautiful! 🤍✨
I really enjoyed painting along with you and I’m very happy the way it turned out! I’m planning on doing the same way and use this in my junk journal I’m working on now. Thank you for inspiring us with all your beautiful paintings and your calmness as you paint it’s so soothing. Looking forward to maybe you have a junk journal and painting combination video 😊 Again thank you Diane 💜😊🎨
Absolutely gorgeus!!
Diane so thankful found you helped me through a block. Plus (this is ridiculous) your hand looks like mine and love your critters
Thanks so much and no it’s not ridiculous!!! Wonderful to have such a feeling of fellowship x. Thanks so much again for your support ❤️
I just got the Etchr Watercolor pad hot press. Can't wait to try it! I love all your videos and wondered when you were going to do a door with florals as you mentioned in a previous video. I'm a big fan and wish I could come to the farm and hug all the animals!! LOL
Very fun & relaxing! Thank you!
I enjoyed watching this very much and can't wait to try it. Seems very relaxing
Made my flowers into bookmarks- very cute! Thank you!
This would be fab wallpaper for a powder room! So fun! Than you, Diane. cas
This is beautiful! Would be tempted to try and tackle it with watercolours...
I find this so relaxing. This is so beautiful!! ❤️
Beautiful, love this it's really pretty. Think I'll try this and make some bookmarks! Thank you very much 😊 x
very relaxing, many thanks for this video
I thoroughly enjoy hearing your thoughts on life in France (& life in general)! It is communication w/ friends- (the kids are on their own & the days of hanging out w/ friends seem to have passed.) And it is especially nice to hear from someone w/ a passion for one of my interests too! Judging from our comments, we all do our share of complaining - what would a get together w/friends be without it??!! 😂 I read Groucho Marx biography years ago. He said in those days, his parents went out to play cards with friends & his mom got all dressed up, girdle, wig, the works. And by the end of the night she had taken off every uncomfortable thing.. The idea was to show up looking glamorous, but they all knew what they REALLY looked like 😆! I love that story!!
Hi there, thanks so much for your funny message! Absolutely true, I don’t know where I would be without you guys on CZcams! There’s only so much that I can talk about with my husband - if it’s not tennis he’s not really interested! It’s not as if there isn’t anything to be worried about is it! But as we know we turn to painting and other arts and crafts to keep our sanity! So happy to have you on board, have a great day! PS I don’t know what your real name is!
This is such a mesmerizing and meditative project, Diane. Something that can be left out and worked on whenever. Love mixing different mediums to create each flower. And, it’s so pretty! Definitely see it as a 4 Season creation! Thank you for your wonderful inspirations🥰
So true! It would be a lovely one to do in the autumn with all those warm berry colors and turning leaves.... great idea Connie, will remember that!
Hi Diane, Never shut up! Enjoyed your tutorial so much and while I was watching, Amazon delivered my new water color pens! ❤️
Love this idea with ways to use but I don’t have watercolor pens, but I do have acrylic pens…not the same I know but for now it works. ..was having a bit of a funk but this could get me out of it, thanks Diane 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️👍🏽Mia
Wow..this is so colourful,happy & joyful…wonderful…best we don’t overthink & just do🙂
I drew in the stems then blurred them with water. Then the leaves, same. Once dry I'll add the flowers. Repeat. Just for a fun exercise. I used watercolor pencils.
Diane, I really enjoyed watching you create this. What a calming and therapeutic art exercise! So fun watching all your stems turn into sweet little flowers. I'm definitely going to paint this. It's perfect for those days when you want to paint but you just don't know what to paint. I also love reading all of the kind comments from your followers. I know they're meant for you and Tamsin, but it's just so nice seeing how many kind people there are that take the time to express the joy and appreciation you bring to their lives. You're the best!
Thanks so much Carolyn, for all your lovely comments over the past couple of years, which have been the guiding light for all the folk who have followed me on the channel - your thoughtful and caring comments have set a gold standard others live up to. More appreciated than you can imagine xxx
Beautiful
This is so relaxing and pretty. I have the girls, so I think we will all do this and start them with half a piece of paper so it is not so overwhelming. I really want to get Marjorie Blamey's book....looks great. Thank you for the instruction and even more types of painting tools. Blessing to you all today!
just testing the imogies!
What a Great Video! You had me laughing out loud with your banter. Watching you paint, talk about your life, and just seeing you “in the zone” brings so much joy. Can’t wait to try this one too 😍😂👏
Thank you so much!!!❤️😀
This looks so fun and looks so pretty in the end, thank you for sharing fun ideas.
I don't own a TV but I watch things on my laptop. I never got passed Season 2 of Better call Saul but I might give it another try since you rate it so much. But Saul is my favourite character out of Breaking Bad.
Thanks so much Maria for your kind comments! If you read my reply to Deb Terry above you see why I watch tv in the evenings!!! I like BCS because of the originality of the writing and cinematography, which is really unique. I'm not sure that season 3 is as good as the first two but it is still intriguing. Might be worth giving it a try if you are at a loose end!!!😊
After eating dinner in front of the tv I usually pick up one of my knitting projects. One of my dogs has been known to sit on my lap and it’s just easier to knit rather than draw or paint (also tried doing that too). I loved this video; gave me lots of good ideas. Thank you!
LOL! My older cat Teeny constantly comes over to sniff & WALK ALL OVER my palette, and especially loose half pans! I thought it might be her failing eyesight but it's just too coincidental that she does this EVERY single time, getting a wet pan stuck to her back paw.😸
I hope your dog is smaller than mine! My Golden Retriever likes to sneak on to my lap but that doesn't leave much room for knitting!
Beautiful Diane . I have been waiting and hoping that you would paint wildflowers. I love paintings of fields of wildflowers esp when can see the sea in the distance 🌼 x
Hi Andrea, I do have quite a few paintings of wild flowers that were done last year so if you go to my channel and scroll back you’ll find them. CZcams/dianeantonestudio
Thank you will look for them. I have looked back at a lot of your painting but must have missed those. I so enjoy watching your tutorials and I love every one of them! ❤️. X
Y o u a r e a m a z i n g...thank you so much. I am just starting my painting journey and this will be my first attempt...wish me luck...smile...
Hi, Diane!! This was so calming and relaxing, listening to your voice as you talked while you painted and created. Your painting is Simply Lovely, Diane!! I so enjoyed watching you create this from a blank canvas, to all the different steps you used and the different mediums you used to make this!! I love watercolors!! I love how you explained while you painted. This is so wispy and vibrant at the same time!! I would love to visit France someday. My father was there during WWII. He was in the Army. He has pictures of him and another soldier sitting under the Eiffel Tower!! I have photos of him in a field with some of his buddies by a castle in England, too. I was born when my Dad was in his later years, at 41. I certainly agree about the taste of food, also. In the USA, I feel the same way. They destroy the food with all the chemicals, pesticides, steroids and antibiotics. It's such a shame. (So many young people passing from disease because of it, too). Sorry...got off track there. Anyways, thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us today. This is my first time on your channel. Just subscribed!!
Hi Lydia and a warm welcome to the channel! So glad you found us and are enjoying the videos! I'm sure the French are still very appreciative of what the American army did to help during the war. Our parents' generation was certainly brave and patriotic. We try to grow some of our food to avoid the pesticides etc but it's pretty hard work with the climate we have now, we've had an unbroken drought since March and it's hotter than I've ever known it here in northern France. But at least we have the channel and our art, and do continue to watch and to paint along with me! See you again soon!
Love the video and so many more you have made . It's so enjoyable to see the process and love your chat. Dont think I would have got back into enjoying painting without you. Best wishes for your husbands speedy recovery 😍
Hi Theresa, I’m honoured to have been involved in your decision to go back into painting with pleasure. Thank you for your best wishes, he is a little bit better!
I love the meditative flower painting idea,sometimes having to try is such a discouragment! Perhaps you like Better call Saul because your soul is looking for a change in direction❤
LOL!!!!
I am a brand new subscriber! Sounds to me like the TV treat is exactly what you deserve! It is always best to rest and enjoy your food and there is nothing better than your favourite series or movie or even a documentary as long as it doesn't change your mood too much. I love your watercolour style and the subjects of each are unusual and inspiring and that is what I love. Nothing you paint seems to be like any thing else that I have seen which is what I am always after when I design items, the individuality and the unusual look to them.
Thank you for such a relaxed style which makes it so enjoyable! By the way my mum also had breast cancer and was a right as rain my dad actually cut his finger off completely with his favourite tool, the angle grinder lol! Blessings and gratitude to you and your family!
Welcome to the channel Marisa!! Thanks so much for your lovely message and hope you enjoy being with us here!
Ha I watch you in the eve here on CZcams
This is so pretty!! And quite relaxing..☺️ Did you find out what caused the green peaches to rot? I was curious & starting checking...there is a disease called brown rot...that can start from the flowering of the plant. I wonder how many complaints that supermarket got!!
I think the problem is they are stored in what they call a protective environment, which means they are held in gas which stops their ripening process. Then when you bring them home they are out of that environment and immediately begin to deteriorate. Didn’t used to be like that here, when the produce came more directly to market. Now I believe everything has to go through storage facilities where it’s kept too long before being delivered to the shops. Not an improvement. And everybody knows it. Really I hardly buy soft fruit fruit anymore - luckily we are able to grow quite a bit in our garden. No point in complaining to the supermarket here - unlike in England they take no notice of anyone’s complaints.
This looks like a super fun one to try. Love all the colours. Tempted to buy the brush pens. 96 or 48 set? Do you use them a lot? (Unfortunately if I buy them on Amazon it is Amazon Australia so that doesn’t benefit you, Diane)
I do use them quite a lot Tracy, I think they are very helpful for preparatory sketches and final touches especially!
Wouldn't that make a lovely card Diane?! We stopped all of our TV service.. So the Tv sits there mostly unused.. We have several hundred dvd's that we will pull out and watch now and then.. But for the most part we read or i do my art.. I'll watch some CZcams while i draw or paint or whatever.. i guess listen would be the appropriate term.. Satellite and Cable are just awful and we have not bought into the Streaming thing.. For the most part we are content.. I don't have any marker sets now that i think of it... But its lovely to watch you do this. I'am definitely a color inside the lines kinda gal... lol But thats not good so i try to relax and not be so particular.. It does look better looser i'm just not so inclined to do it that way...lol I just need to watch more Diane videos and i'll get there.. You asked me last time when we talked about the peaches and i'am from the US. Take care! See you tomorrow over coffee!! Hugs! deb
Hi Deb, thanks so much for your lovely reply. I'm actually with you on the tv thing. When my kids were young we had no tv, as I knew it was bad for their development and I've never been happier. We got so many fun things done, together and separately, that would never have happened had the tv been on in the corner of the room. I only accepted the return of the tv into the house because I remarried (over 30 years ago now) and my husband insisted on it, for sport and politics watching. That's what he does all day long now, as his health is not good. So it comes down to this: either I sit in the evening and watch tennis, football, basketball or politicians arguing, or I demand to be allowed a choice on the tv while we eat. So I do that. He sits quietly through Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad, Animal Kingdom, The Fugitive, Mad Men, Modern Family, whatever I opt to watch. Then, dinner over I leave for the studio and he switches over to sport or politics. Or occasionally an opera. I spend all my time in my studio except when I'm preparing meals, cleaning the house, eating or showing or asleep! It works fine! Oh and one of the peaches in the set of six was okay, I shared it with Tamsin last night!!!!! See you soon! PS you won't regret getting a set of poetique brush pens. I've never liked the traditional marker, but the brush pens are almost as good as watercolors.
I'm a new subscriber. Are these watercolor brush pens you are using, or??? Thank you.
Hi Carol and a warm welcome to the channel! Yes, I was using Poétique’s watercolour brush pens for the start of the painting (here's a link: amzn.to/3yqvbLg) and then I switched to watercolour and a small brush. Hope this helps x
Diane I have to confess I have been watching you and really enjoying your videos. But since Kate Jackson from Last Homely House CZcams channel is taking a break, I have been binge watching your videos. You just mention in this video that you are vegetarian. Have you considered expanding and showing your studio, your kitchen, cooking your farm? Concentrate please on painting but occasionally cook something for us. Just a thought. Thank you for bringing us with you going down amazing rabbit holes with every video.
Hi Gayle, thanks so much for your message, very interesting. I have watched a few of Kate Jacksons videos so I have heard of the last homely house. Hopefully she will be back soon. Meanwhile I’m glad that you found us! Interesting that you say about expanding the channel into slightly different areas. We do have a second channel called From the Garden. So far, we haven’t developed it at all and it only has a few videos about our vegetable garden and a couple of meditations. But the plan is to do what you suggest eventually. Here’s a link: youtube.com/@fromthegarden in case you’re interested. Thanks again, and wishing you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
Diane do you have a recommendation for a brand of water colors for beginners, not too expensive, but is a step above child water colors... To begin i'd like to purchase what i see in my craft stores here instead of buying onlline.. This is what i see available.. Koi, Winsor Newton Cotman, seems to be the man 2 brands.. there might be a Winsor Newtown Gallery.. then ofcourse David Smith though i'm not sure i'm ready to spend that kind of money.. Or if you have another suggestion i would buy online? Thank you for that! Hugs! deb
Hi Deb, you can't go wrong with Cotman from Winsor and Newton. I know there are a lot of Chinese alternatives now, and I can't vouch for where W&N make their Cotman colors now although I've been told they are still made in England. But they are still good quality, wherever they be made, and they are good for a beginner, I still use quite a few of their tubes that I've had for a couple of decades!!! That is my recommendation as shown in my Amazon shop, which is hear: amazon.com/shop/dianeantonestudio
Hope that helps!
@@DianeAntoneStudio Helps me alot Diane.. thank you!
👍👍🧡🧡👀👀 8/6/22
Why not frame it, it is lovely and difficult for me to do and I did it! Don't assume it may not be worthy. You can make some of us feel less than. Thank you
Thank you for alerting me to a problem I had not intended to cause you.
You’re not moaning, you are just saying the same as many, many people are saying! It’s the same here in the states. Don’t know why…….
