I think I see now why I your videos work so well for me personally. I really enjoy the way how concisely you explain your colours/thought processes through a few keywords of text. The lowkey music makes it easy for me to really focus on how you achieve your results, without verbal information dumps distracting me. I also really appreciate having the visual of how you handle your palette on the side, very useful reference on your water/pigment ratio. It’s excellent ‘show’ with just enough of ‘tell’!

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for such amazing feedback 😊 I really appreciate your sharing how you experience my videos, and I am glad all those things I did in this one are working well together for you as a viewer ✨ Hope you have a lovely day!

[@gabybacurin4773]

Thank you so much for this. What started out as a mess for me turned out rather stunning! My husband and family were absolutely amazed that I had done this watercolor. I didn’t have my hairdryer with me so my trees didn’t come out the way I hoped, but overall I loved it and can’t wait to do the next one. Thank you so much!!

[@AnastasiaMily]

So glad you are happy with the results and that you enjoyed the process (despite not having a hairdryer!). You can always come back and create new work based on that 1st attempt too. Thank you for watching!
