Thanks! ❤️

Hi Kristen, The first brush I use is one of these: amzn.to/4ieFYOD . If i remember correctly I am using the nr. 5.

That's awsome! So glad it was helpful! ❤🤗

Thank you LInda. I'm having domain problems that are giving me even more gray hairs! Sorry about that, but you can use this link though: cathymevik.mykajabi.com/iswaitlist 💗

And the best part of painting in my opinion. 💗

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🤗

I mixed all of the colors from th red and blue on the top of my palette, but you could Amstardam Standart has a color called Permanant Red Violet, that is the closest I can think of. 💗 I used primary magenta and ultramarin btw.

Thank you! ❤️

Hi Heidi! So glad you found the video helpful. The song I used for this one is by Particle House. You can find them on Spotify. The song i called You thought I knew. Enjoy! ❤

Thanks Debra! 🩵🩷❤️

Thanks Linda. Busy week, but a fun one! Enjoy your weekend too! Hope you make some time to paint! 🩷🖌️🎨

That’s too funny Debbie! You should suggest house chores as a nice new hobby for him, then he will really start regretting his words. 😂 The kidding aside. As long as you keep going you’re on the right path! Getting stuck and trying to find your way teaches you so much! I actually just edited the video for Sunday and it’s all about just that! Glad you’re enjoying the videos! 🥰

You really made me think back, Linda. I used to be one of those people who thought any child could create an abstract painting. Boy, did I learn a lesson when i first started painting. 😂 On a more serious note, I’ve learned that enthusiasm is everything-if I’m not excited about the process, every chance I have of improving goes straight out the window. Abstracts are challenging, but I believe we can go far as long as we have some self-compassion. Thank you so much for sharing with me. Hearing how my videos have helped you find more enthusiasm makes all the effort I put into the videos worthwhile. Feedback like yours keeps me inspired for sure. Let me know how things go with those paintings!💛

I know exactly how you feel. I've been there. It takes time and practice, but keep going and you will find your way. I have a free video if where I show you one of the ways I start an abstract painting. I also have a few other freebies on my website. Check it out. www.cathymevik.com , and see if you find anything you think might be helpful. 🩷

You bet! Glad to help! 🩷 Thanks for commenting. Comments keep me motivated. 🤗

❤️❤️❤️

Awww! Thank you so much! I really needed to hear that today! 🩷 I was just sitting here doubting the topic for my video this Sunday! I’ll be sharing an excercise I use when I feel I need to loosen up! Maybe you’ll find as much help from it as I do! 👍👏

Thank you! Give it a shot! The full video is on my channel. 👍

Glad you enjoyed it Chris! 👍👨‍🎨

This was a painting I made for a master class a while back Linda. 🩷 It just reminded me of how much I love to use charcoal as a first layer. 👍

@CathyMevik Awesome 👍
