Wow i love this picture. I would love to see more of this type of paintings. Love the loose, abstract pic. I have never seen your paintings before, so i am glad your site popped up and will subscribe to it. I will go and see your web site. ❤
Your work is beautiful and refreshing! As my eyesight continues to deteriorate, I feel that your style of painting will work even better for me. Thank you for sharing!
Wow! I'm loving all the new skills you're presenting. I've never seen anybody do this like you do thank you so much for sharing. I hope to find your other ones too. God bless. I'm so so excited.
So lovely! The colors are so beautiful together and I love your tecnic. I am going to Paris in August. I will visit Monets garden. I love gardens. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Sweden
I am thrilled watching this- very surprised and delighted! Can't wait to pull out one of my large canvases and start up. I hope I can. I hope I can grasp what you're doing. Oh it's a magnificent. I'd love to add those skills to my repertoire. Thank you so much.
I just love your impressionistic style! Thank you so much for sharing here on CZcams!!!! Would love to see more demos! Really appreciate you sharing your technique, thank you Kathleen ❤
Your skill with the catalyst wedge is amazing. I've seen them used before but not the way you did. The resulting painting is a revelation to me! Absolutely love you style and would love to see more demos and tutorials please 😊
Thank you. I love my wedge! I've worn so many out over the years. It's definitely my very favorite tool, besides my filbert brush. Thanks for your comment. I will definitely be posting more content like this.
@@jaynemartlew5762 Hi Jayne! Unlike my courses on Thinkific, the Wedge Workshop Bundle was excerpts from 2 recorded workshops that I hosted via Zoom during lockdown. Because it was a Zoom recording, the quality was not great compared to my courses. Also, I began adding short wedge demo videos with most of my courses that use the wedge, so it became repetitive. Is there another course you are thinking about taking? Maybe I can help.
Kathleen..this is great video. I'm working thru your Hydrangea Gardens class and I love it. Thank you for explaining everything and your reasoning behind it. You're true professional. So lovely Cindy A
I loved the demo and would love to see more like this. I need to loosen up. The colors are so beautiful as is the painting. I think I will give it a go on an 16x20. I'm hoping it will come out decent. The tip about the glazing is a good tip.
Hello , this is Pamela McLean from NC. I love watching you paint today. I have taken one or two of your online courses. Your paintings love so ethereal and comforting to look at. You are very talented.
Hi Pamela!! Thanks for taking my courses and all of your kind support on social media. So happy to have you here. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and my art. 🌸🌸🌸
I’m so happy your site popped up l just subscribed to your channel and looking forward to following your amazing tutorials you make it look so easy I’m sure it’s not! I love flowers and the looseness of your paintings and colours you use is just so captivating!Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful art!❤
Thank you. I will try this, but perhaps not cover the whole canvas. I prefer more negative space and use it in small areas of a larger composition. It could add a bit of color and texture. Very nice! I like the lower right hand side. It is pretty with the pale green, pink and white.
Hi Kathleen - I just found your site and loved the demo, and use of the tools. The painting is fabulous. Love to see more demos. Thanks for sharing and continued success. Love PegEgg
Thanks Cody! Can you believe have had this channel for years?? Instagram was my focus, but things change and I want a platform where I can share more content and longer videos. So I will be focusing more of my effort here and sharing things (long form videos mainly) I can't share on Instagram, Pinterest or Facebook. 🙂
I'm doing psychotherapy. He is a survivor of a violent family. My parents were dementia patients I took care of both of you at the same time. Both died three months apart. It's been a year and a half since you passed away. I'm taking care of myself now. I thought I was doing well on my own. But I don't think that was it. I really love myself and I didn't take care of myself. I think I keep forgetting it. Or I don't think I know how. I don't know how to care about me. I really want to take care of myself and love myself. He's releasing me in writing and drawing. I'm really happy with my drawing time. The picture is the best right now.
I love your style and had a seriously good time watching you create this artwork!! Which one of your courses would you recommend for learning this particular style of abstract florals? Loosen Up & Find Joy In Your Art? I look forward to hearing your recommendation!! Thank you!
Hi there! Thanks for your comment. The course I would recommend would be "Hydrangea Gardens". While you would be painting hydrangeas, you will learn to use the silicone wedge + my technique for blending and softening edges with glazing liquid. The techniques in that course can be applied to painting more non-specific flowers, such as the painting you see me painting in this video. My "Loosen Up" course is a great course, but more aimed at beginners, and in it I use a palette knife instead of a silicone wedge. Hope that helps, and hope to see you in a course of mine soon!
Maravillosa tu pintura corazón . Podrías poner subtítulos en español. Soy una abuela de 73 años aficionada a la pintura , me gustaría aprender un pico de tu técnica para hacer estos cuadros tan alegres y vibrantes , gracias
thank you. no, most of my paintings are done alla prima. I’m using acrylics, so they do dry fairly quickly, but I’m not waiting for each layer to dry in between colors.
Кетлін, Ваша манера створення картин просто неймовірна! Я в захопленні від кольорів та експресії. Вони такі життєстверджуючі ! Позитивні. Щира подяка з України , моє захоплення. Підписка й вподобайки. Натхнення Вам й чудових нових творів. Дякую.
Absolutely beautiful! Love your technique and style! I signed up for your hydrangea class! I would love to take the catalyst bundle. Will you reopen it one day?
Hi Alesha! Thanks for taking my Hydrangea Gardens course. I hop you will love it. Regarding the Silicone Wedge workshop bundle, I retired it because the workshops were recorded over Zoom, so the quality was not as good as my courses. I now include quick "how to" videos in most of my courses. However, I may tape a new video demonstrating the wedge and different ways the I use it. Thanks for asking....that tells me that there ate probably others who would also enjoy it. I am always grateful for feedback.
Hello! I love your paintings and would like to try your technique, I would like to ask if there is a substitute for the glazing liquid, since the ones I can find are very expensive for me to buy.
Thank you. Unfortunately, there is no cheap alternative to glazing liquid. Water will not work like glazing liquid, because it is the viscosity that gives this effect.
Hi artists! Did you enjoy this video? Let me know in the comments if you are going to try any of these tools or techniques .
yes we enjoyed thank u so much and definately we are going to try .
@@hobbyoflife That's great! Have fun!
I’m so going to try! Thank you!!!!!
LOVE this demo!! The colors and looseness of the strokes and impressions of flowers, leaves and background…just wonderful❣️ Thank you.
I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Thanks !
More free demos please please. I absolutely love your style. I ordered my wedge and I'm ready to start. Your paintings are so beautiful and dreamy.
Thank you. If you appreciate my content, please consider taking one of my courses. It'll help offset my costs of offering content like this.

So glad you found it helpful. Thanks!
Your work is beautiful and refreshing! As my eyesight continues to deteriorate, I feel that your style of painting will work even better for me. Thank you for sharing!
So glad you enjoyed it. I often wonder if the Impressionist painters began painting that way because of dwindling eyesight. 🙂
Wow! I'm loving all the new skills you're presenting. I've never seen anybody do this like you do thank you so much for sharing. I hope to find your other ones too. God bless. I'm so so excited.
Wonderful style and a great way to go for your art. Thank you for sharing and letting me learn. ❤
