I enjoyed your video and learned a few things. I like using pinterest to find palettes before I start my paintings. I know what will work because I can "see" the colors in action before. I'm still drawing from references, but one day, I hope from imagination. I know it's just experience and time that is required for that, which is next level for me. Loved the story you told with your piece about all the Chinese Zodiac animals working together, so I couldn't resist grabbing a sticker set and print from it. Nice job!
Ah yes! I know what you mean by seeing colors in action! I'm sure you're gonna make awesome imaginative work in the future, drawing from reference is such a good practice.
And thank you SO much for the support!! Looking forward to sending your goodies💕🙏
Son of a cephalopod!!! Can't wait to try a couple of these techniques in my own artwork!
Heck yeah!! Good luck💕💕🐋🦑

Stay Awesome!
Oh are you getting the garden ready?
Thank you! Ahh I feel called out for my video infrequency😂💕
@Zaccura lol.
no, we understand.
Hey, nobody ever said you can't watch the same video twice, right?
It's always good to hear your voice, your thoughts and see your art.
I gotta admit, my entire art and colour process is me just vomiting the rainbow on my paper as a first layer, proceeding to internally scream 'i don't know what I'm doing!!!' through the whole painting, and then somehow magically come out with a painting that doesn't look like complete garbage. don't ask me how, i genuinely don't know 🤣
Give me 6 months on this channel and I will know the color wheel - promise
Don't forget the village elders! 😆🙌
Colour
*fancy*
colour with a 'u' is fancy?? why thank you I guess us brits are fancy then haha 😏😂😂
Why of course! Anyone who calls a cracker a "biscuit" are 100% fancy in my eyes💕✨
@@Zaccura oh but crackers and biscuits are two completely different things for us !! 😭
