Right back at you! 🩷😊

@ 😀🤗😘

Yay, I'm so glad to hear that! 😊😊😊

You're so welcome! I'm so glad it brought joy to your inner child! 😊💖

Thanks so much!!!

Thank you! I'm so glad you like it. I’m happy to hear it gave you that kind of magical feel! 🩷

What a lovely idea! I’m so glad to have sparked that creative seed for you! Best of luck, and thank you for your kind words!

Hey there! Yes I used acryla gouache on that palette. I peeled the paint off it when it dried. So easy and mess free. That little palette is my new favorite! 🎨

Hey there! I am so happy you enjoyed the flowers. 🌸 Gouache (goo-ahsh) is a type of paint similar to watercolor but with more opacity. I use it like watercolor by adding more water to it, like in this video, but I also use it like acrylic. It's a fun medium! 😀

Thank you! So glad you like it! 😊

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you find it inspiring! 😊

I'm so glad you liked it!

Thank you. I listed the colors in the description. 😀

You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

You’re so welcome! 😊

Me too! Thanks for watching! 😀

Thank you so much for your kind words! 💖 I'm so glad you like the piece! Gouache definitely has a richer, more opaque finish compared to watercolor, which is part of what makes it so fun to work with. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the effect! Thanks again for your support and for taking the time to comment! 😊

Thank you so much 😀

Thank you! Artistro. 😀

Yes good eye! They are Artistro pens! 😀

Ha I get that feeling! We moved to the middle of nowhereville a few years back. No art stores, nothing here. Then, a few weeks ago, Michaels opened up 10 minutes away. My husband immediately started sweating. 🤣🤣🤣

Me too.

That is a great idea, unfortunately this isn't a repeating pattern. 🍂

No worries at all, time zones can be tricky! 😊 I'm so glad you're enjoying it, and thank you for your kind words! 🙌🎨"

@ thank you so much!,

That's so wonderful to hear! I love the idea of working in a sketchbook-there's just so much freedom.

That sounds awesome! I’m sure you’ll love how the granulated colors look with the tape! 🎨✨

Strathmore. Here is the link where you can find it. amzn.to/4gzNG49

I’m so glad you found it relaxing! 😊 Thank you for watching and for your kind words! ✨

Thank you so much! I absolutely love creating those watercolor blooms-they’re always intentional and such a fun part of my process. I’m so happy to hear they inspire you! 🌸

Great question! I used a 140lb paper, so there was weight to it and the paper was not at all at risk of tearing. So I don't think that a backing or gesso is necessary if using at least 140lb paper. 😀

Me too! I want to do everything and get so excited. Then when I get some time, I'm so blank, yet overwhelmed, I just sit there...But I find if I start some meditative project, like this, it gets my juices flowing again! Good luck!

I completely understand what you're feeling. Overthinking and perfectionism can be such big obstacles, especially when you're just starting out. Perfectionism is a creativity killer. I had a serious case of it and completely changed the type of art I was doing because it was becoming unfun to try and be perfect. This neurographic art technique is really great when your feeling stuck. I do this when I don't have any ideas of what I want to draw/paint. Just draw the lines without thinking. Then take each space and imagine shapes that would fit into it. Don't think your doing anything wrong, you will be just filling the space with doodles. Every mark you make will be correct if you get outside your head and draw intuitively. I hope this helps you. I should make a video on this, because I am sure you are not alone in the struggle.

@@JoanneGrant_Artshe is not alone, and it sounds like I am not either. I try so hard to do what my current favorite artist did, and I always fail.

@@caroleverest2049 You're definitely not alone in feeling that way! Instead of trying to copy exactly, try focusing on the techniques they’re using and then adding your own style to it-what feels natural to you. That’s where the magic happens!🎨

Thank you! 😊

Thank you so much! 😊🌸

I'm so glad you found the list helpful! ✨

Thank you! Yes they are Artistro! I just got them recently and loving the colors and opacity. 😀

Thank you so much! I love the flow of neurographic art too. It's very meditative. 💖

Thank you so much! 💖

Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun creating this one!
