That flower style you’re talking about is VICTORIAN style.
Thank you 😊
Early squad, where you at!?
You know it's gonna be a relaxing day when Mel uploads 🥰 Where do you usually find your references, & what is it that keeps you inspired or motivated?
As for preferred mediums, it's a little hard to say... I've been working with acrylics, 'cause one of my design classes requires it, & I feel like I'm getting the hang of it! Not gonna lie, it does have a bit of a learning curb, but I feel like that mediums become easier to get used to as you use them frequently. (My aunt who's a watercolor artist tells me this too!) Watercolors are usually my go-to, 'cause you can really take advantage of the transparency & get beautiful effects from them. Lately, I would add in shading/highlighting & occasional touch-ups with colored pencil, 'cause that's when the washes come through & it just gives them a unique texture.
Thank you for the upload, & I also hope you're staying safe & healthy! 🙏🏼
Just here painting with you while watching
Hope you get better soon
Amazing! Thank you 😊
I hope everything is okay, send good energy and good vibes your way 🥺🥺💕💕💕💕
Thank you!! ❤️
Love the last painting get little inspired about it. My favorite media is water soluble oils. :)
Thank you! That's so cool 😊
I agree with the previous comments and commend your work ethic. Thanks for the content and please take care, wishing you health and some peace of mind. Very pleasant art/studies 👌 😊
Thank you very much :)
Aaaaagggh I’m so sorry. I had an infection in my hand a few years ago (my non-dominate hand) and while it didn’t affect my art, it affected my day job as a surgical technologist where I use both hands equally. It took quite some time to feel better. I hope you feel better soon and I just love your videos! Will binge them in the meantime 💕
May God bless you with good health. You're such a talented person , love your work!
Thank you! 😊
I'm watching this Mar/2022. I like both your paintings. I hope you finished your landscape challenge.
Gorgeous as ever 😍😍.
Thank you!! 😊
I’m starting to learn how to paint with gouache. I think it’s going to be my favorite wet medium out of all the wet mediums I’ve tried Such as oil and acrylic. The only thing I’ve noticed that is the gouache paint can dry fast on the pallet. But I am loving it so far! Thanks for suggestions.
Awesome video and excellent painting. Thanks for this. We love supporting fellow art channels! Best of luck in 2021, love from Canada
Thank you 😊
You wete at a bad time in this but im so glad for your honesty your art is really your therapy it sounds like.
Never yet tried painting with gouache but this maks me want to try.. I hope you feel better 🤍
Amazing! Thank you 😊
I hope you feel better soon. Take all the time you need🥺❤
Thank you ❤️
The strangest thing is ,is that i was thinking about doing some gouache but I didn't know what to do ! Thank you so much! Also crossing all of my fingers ,toes and everything for you ,I really hope you will be OK !:)
That's awesome! Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much for this video and your ideas.:))) I hope that you are healthy and everything is ok with your hand :))) i love your work, and your cannell :)))
My fav medium is gouache but since that clearly isn’t going to help you out much, my second favorite right now is golden fluid acrylics. They’re a lot different than heavy body acrylics and are so pigmented and smooth to paint with. Sending healing vibes your way Mel 🖤
Love from India
Hope for the best!!! In love with the last painting! (L)
Thank you!! :)
In this video, you're talking about soo many things you want to do once your hands are healed. I truly admire you for how you just go for all the things you want to do, and do all of them. And do them well. You keep amazing me time and time again. But please consider that your body may be telling you to slow down a bit. Working too hard for too long, even if you love what you do, can turn into chronic stress. And that can cause so many physical issues.
Thanks for your kind words! I just spend almost 2 weeks doing close to nothing and watching lots of trash tv and tik tok, so I'm very eager to start creating again 😅
@@VisualMind I understand so well, because I'm just like that myself. But it sounds like you might be burning out, and I hope you don't have to learn the hard way (like me) that it doesn't help to take two weeks off and then go back to being busy.
Please, please, consider that you have a whole life ahead of you, and that it's better to spread all those ideas out a bit instead of working 100% constantly for a couple of years, and then having to recover for that same number of years. I highly recommend checking out Struthless' video on giving 70%, it really sums it up really well.
I've noticed that people who are burning out start to sound a certain way: talking about these signs of tiredness and/or health problems, yet staying super driven and optimistic about all these things we want to do. Preferably yesterday. And they're all so much fun! So they don't count, right? So don't worry, we'll be fine.
But they do count, and we might not be fine. In times of chronic stress, our body produces hormones to keep us going. And these hormones make us feel like everything is great.
So all these fun things make us feel better, it feels like they help against the tiredness. But they don't. Fun things help us stay happy and healthy, but giving our 100% to every single one of these fun things doesn't. It exhausts us, wears us out.
And the only thing that helps is forcing ourselves to rest until that restless compulsive urge calms down, and then take an honest look at how much time and energy we have, and how much of that we'd like to have left at the end of the day.
For me, the idea of having some energy left at the end of the day was so foreign that it had never occurred to me that was an option. If I did something that was interesting and fun and important, I gave it my all.
But everything was fun and interesting and important. So I gave my all several times a day. And I went over my daily budget, then started dipping heavily into my energy backup generator, then just accepted tiredness as part of life, and even managed to keep going a few extra years on pure willpower. So when I crashed, it was spectacular.
People think the crash is the burnout. It isn't. The burnout came much earlier. It's when being busy is the default, when you can't relax in the evenings and weekends because you're too tired - or worse, still busy. When you can't rest and relax anymore, because you feel restless when you try. Your body interprets chronic stress as being the result of something that needs to be solved, that needs to be survived. So it won't let you rest until that's accomplished. But it never will, because you're doing fun things, and think of new fun things, and those things give you the illusion that you feel better.
Love, love, love that flower one!! Maybe retro is the word?? I know that's been trending lately. I think it's so cute.
I really hope you start getting better enough to do your art again. I run my own business as well, but also have a chronic illness. It makes me really cautious of what I'm doing and how well I take care of myself. ( I in no way mean to complain or need pity lol ) but I understand in a way what your going through. I get so anxious when I can't be creative in all the ways I want to be. But I've figured out how to cope, and I guess that what we all have to figure out for ourselves.
Also, I love you and your channel so much because in many ways, you're different from everyone else. And I really admire that. I love your openness and honesty about everything.
Sorry this is kinda long, but I hope you are getting better and having a wonderful day.💜
yayyyy, love this vidd
Thanks 😊
Im so glad your ok i only just found you a couple months ago your so unique and smart and funny your introductions with the microphone are my favorite! I cant believe how much you pick up from comments or other artists because your english grows can tell grows so quickly and you teach me not only art but some german things i didnt know like that we Americans were so lacking in some words .. we have a no dang word for female fighters? But when people running our country are so sexist its no wonder we just get called a bitch when fighting back!( the teddy bear bit at the end i loved) im not trying to cause mass drama i just really think about some of the things you speak and your very lovely just how you are and i hope you and your wife (or gf sorry i dont know) ate so blessed . I really live paycheck to paycheck but i do have a boal soon of taking one of your classes or something i also have learned to be bold wuith my art especially gouache in a short time!❤
( i dint mean ate so blessed i meant are so blessed sorry😮)
quedo bonito, bendiciones
i hope your hands and feet get better 😔💖💖💖💖 it’s not fun to have no control on ur own physical health
Thank you so much!! ❤️
Dank!
Wow .., your painting is inspirational ❤️❤️👍 best wishes
Thank you 😊
💖💖💖🤗
I really really admire all your ideas....😍 Loving it all....😘Thank you so much for giving great and many inspiring ideas.... 👉❤👈...
Thank you so much 😊
Hope you get well soon💕 btw I was wondering can you mixed Acryla Gouache with watercolour’s medium?
Thank you! I don't know, what does a watercolor's medium do? 🤔
You can mix acrylic gouache with watercolour blending medium. And, you can paint over watercolor with gouache. And, as far as, mixing the two mediums together, well, they are both water based, so I would mix them together an test it on the paper to see how it reacts when dried. I would think it would be fine.
can u do a video where u do a painting with ur most hated art supplies
I donated them all or threw them away, I've got no space for things that I hate 😁😁
Hope you are ok..🙁 hope for the best. ☺️
Thank you ❤️
Cool paintings ideas 😍👏👏
I hope you feel better soon 🙏
Does your hands when you put pressure to them or when you grab something sharp , does they feel in pain and like itching somehow?
If so , I believe you developed sensitivity bcz of over working and painting with them , your hands nerves I mean ... and perhaps you have low the iron vitamin!.. I say this bcz it happened to me (and still happening from 3 yrs )
Anyway... I hope everything goes well for you🌼
yeah, keep try on your best
Hi I hope your health has been figured out and that it was a simple fix. I'm currently on a creative leave and it sucks I totally understand exactly everything u are going through. It took my docs 10 months to figure out my right arm pain and I'm currently awaiting surgery for 2 ruptured tendons to be repaired and no working or doing house work because I have zero use of my right arm. It's been such a life adjustment and having zero income coming in has been very overwhelming. I'd love to hear an update.
I'm so sorry to hear that, hope things will go up again for you! Totally understand how frustrating that is 😩
As for my pain, it's most likely coming from my back & neck which have been strained after a few years of desk work. I've started exercising regularly and that helps tremendously. Whenever I'm sick and can't work out, the pain comes back.
Unfortunately I'm currently suffering from frequent migraines. I'm still in the process of learning how to handle that 🙃 Finally found a pain killer that actually works thankfully
If you want to try new things, I can recommend art subscription boxes to you. Like Upcrate or ScrawlrBox.
And the flower picture looks like the style of Laura Ashley. At least she was famous for this style.
Thanks for the tip, once I've tried all the new materials that I've got lying around here, I might do more of those subscription boxes videos :D
I'll check out her art! :)
Hope it is just something minor and that you get better soon.
Thank you 😊
Are you okay now? thanks for sharing
Hope you get well. Ask your doutor about fibromyalgia. My hands and feet hurt too and about 8 years ago I discovered it was because of that.
Helloing
Hey :)
A lack of vit D can cause your bones to ache. My daughter had a bad deficiency and we had to up her vit D. She had to sit in the sun 🌞 for 10 min without sunblock every day and she took a supplement. I hope its something this simple and you feel better soon. ( oops I see this is quite a while back )
It turned out I have a slight Skoliosis so that's probably the source of my pain 🙈 I'm on vit D supplements now though! (when I don't forget to take them lol)
First person here!
Hope you enjoyed the video :)
Hun I hope your hands get better .
Thank you ❤️
