A calm & gentle piece just like the music …so nice that you are back

[@lauriedunn6198]

My word this year is apply. To apply what I have learned and what I know.

[@barbibarnum]

That’s a great word

[@Sheila-l8e]

This work of art should be called 'Love and Joy' because this is what I felt while watching you work on it - Happy New Year to a very creative lady.

[@christinewalter2782]

My 2025 word is ‘benevolent’. Kind and charitable with others (and also myself). Happy new year and thank you for sharing your beautiful art.

[@marilynbunte5376]

Joy is my favorite word. Happy New Year. You are so calm give such peace, tome.

[@clc3897]

Your videos are like gifts from heaven. Thank you for sharing your work and process with us. These days I was looking for calendars, and specifically I was looking for those box desk calendars. I would absolutely love it if someone came up with a box calendar where every day there was a little coloring page or even an inspirational quote to color in. I would also love it if someone came up with a calendar/bullet journal that was filled with all sorts of drawings to color in. Throwing out some ideas in case you are looking for more inspiration. ❤❤❤

[@Priyaursal]

Happy new year! My word for this year is "Transformation".

[@andreaharutunian3838]

We all know how relaxing and meditative it is to paint but watching you paint is just as relaxing and very inspiring 🎉🎉🎉

[@cosmiccoyotedog-doreenb9605]

My word this year is Growth. I want to expand my creative side in all I do. Love your doodles and music.

[@ruthhowell5883]

love your linework...colors are amazing - thank you for sharing this. Also love the music you use in your videos

[@cindystone3990]

Gratitude is my word

[@WorldWideWebObserver]

Thanks for sharing another enjoyable video with your gorgeous artwork! Happy New Year Dear CeeCee!!! Congrats on your new grandson!

[@MsMoniqueWilson]

Absolutely lovely. And such a relaxing inspiring video. Thank you!

[@dianemorin1466]

Ça commence bien l’année 😊. Très zen après des Fêtes mouvementées. Merci ❤

[@creationsceecee]

Merci! bonne semaine 😊

[@francou.aquarelle]

C’est magnifique Ceecee. Je suis toujours impressionnée par ton processus créatif. Le résultat de ta séance “en toute zénitude” est tellement agréable à regarder et harmonieux c’est beau comme un massif de corail. Bravo! (J’envie tellement ce talent!)

[@creationsceecee]

merci beaucoup! et tu sais, c'est un pratique qui se développe; le talent inné n'y est pour presque rien ;-)

[@t2terri]

Outstanding! Luv your videos!

[@cindythoms7246]

[@staceymcghee77]

Very relaxing. I really enjoyed this.

[@jackiesimmons598]

Ceecee I stand in awe of you creativity and your patience. 😍

[@ritamcgregor9103]

Always am excited to see a video from you! My word this year is Change. :)

[@dorisschmeichel2949]

That, my dear, is a lot of doodling and so lovely. I’m so happy to hear your voice again, and love the piano music background. ❤

[@creationsceecee]

Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 😊

[@dimitrabouzalas3090]

So beautiful! 😍 - to watch and the finished piece 😍

[@rainoftranquility7735]

I also choose a word(s) every year. Last year I picked 2 words: intentionally and consistently. This year I chose 3 words: peace, revive, and persevere. I started this practice a few years ago and I must admit it has truly helped me stay focused during the year.

[@creationsceecee]

I love that you chose such meaningful words for this year! 😊

[@rainoftranquility7735]

@creationsceecee thanks. I tend to pick words based on what i want to accomplish or gain for the year.

[@christineingram55]

Beautiful as always..I love your usual touch of gold too 🥰

[@juliao1255]

It is SO nice to see you again, and get inspiration from another fantastic "doodling" art page of yours, to help me move forward in my art journal practice. I am determined to get back into a regular habit of art journaling. I had received a personal spiritual word a few years ago. It was "crucible". It kind of freaked me out! I worked with it, but I've been afraid to ask "the Universe" for another word since then, but thanks to you and this video, I realize I am ready to ask again.

[@alichtenwalter]

My word is completeness . I am using this word to finish my paintings that come from my soul. Beautiful Watercolor.

[@creationsceecee]

I love the idea of painting from the soul!

[@garyweybright3227]

Wow, another beauty! I know it’s not the KZbin trend these days with quotas,marketing stuff and all, but I just love these longer videos. Thank you for taking the time to edit and do this lovely piece! ClaudiaSJI

[@creationsceecee]

Thank you, Claudia! I'm so glad you enjoy the longer videos.

[@kaygilbert8773]

So relaxes me watching you create and the soft music and your soft voice. Thank you!

[@iskradorinella8427]

Bonjour Ceecee de France. Tout ce que vous peignez me plaît beaucoup. Vos vidéos sont apaisantes et agréables. Merci et tous mes meilleurs voeux pour cette nouvelle année. Dorinella 💝

[@creationsceecee]

un gros merci à vous pour ce commentaire!

[@monalcreates]

So beautiful CeeCee!! Truly enjoyed my watching and listening to lovely music too! Always love watching your videos!! I am using the same word I had last year, and that is "Wellness" and that includes ALL me! Physically, mentally and spiritually. All the best for 2025 dear friend!! 🥰

[@creationsceecee]

thank you, Mona. and i am adding my wishes of wellness to you for this year, my friend. may it finds you well, creative and joyful! xx

[@susanonthemove728]

Love it!

[@debmcgowan9852]

I believe the one word you are looking for is "DYNAMIC." Here's why. In the web site building industry there are basically two types of sites. The oldest and first was called "static." That meant that it was solid. It stayed the same size and did not expand when content was added. Then "dynamic" came along. It was revolutionary! It expanded as content was added. It was as though it was able to come alive and grow with the new content. Isn't that what your heart wants to do with your art? It wants to come alive and grow!! Hope this helps you. I have loved your presence and your art for many years. Take care precious and be "DYNAMIC."

[@creationsceecee]

thank you. i like your take on the word dynamic!

[@AdeleReece-xp1fz]

This was such a beautiful way to spend some time this Sunday…thank you , as always for sharing! The process felt like metamorphosis…so perhaps that will be my word this year! Happy new year to you❤

[@WildAcornsArtStudio]

Wow, that's amazing. ❤

[@marypanich9880]

Hi CeeCee! Your Painting today is so pretty. Your practice is very calming. I love to watch and listen to the beautiful music. Thank you for sharing. I don’t pick a word but perhaps I should. And no matter how you feel about this “doodle”…I think it would look lovely on a wall matted with a soft blue and yellow. Every time you look at it, it could bring you back to this calm place. 😊 Happy New Year!

[@MissCarol-gb3]

Lovely❤❤

[@DrJones-nh4my]

Beautiful colors

[@shirleylittle3485]

Happy New Year to you and thank you for the ever inspiring ideas. My word is Strength, in all that I do and have to deal with at the moment. Oh do have the calendar for purchase as I would love in my craft room. Thank you sooooo much.

[@creationsceecee]

thank you, Shirley. i don't seel physical copies of the calendar but you can get the digital version at my Patreon page here: www.patreon.com/posts/new-years-gift-119031294

Really appreciate your patience 🎉

[@barbarameehan113]

My word for the year is JOY...2024 was filled with sadness, grief, illness, anxiety, and lack of joy. This year has to be better. I love your art and your lovely voice, so calming. I have missed you. Such a blessing to have you back. I must look into your patreon. Bless you, Ceecee.❤

[@creationsceecee]

I’m so glad my videos have brought you some peace, I'm sending you good vibes! 🙏

[@anick6265]

C est un cadeau que je me fais d écouter vos vidéos, inspirants, talentueuse, calme, merci Catherine de partager avec nous . Candiac, Québec 💕🙏

[@creationsceecee]

ah, c'est gentil, Anick de Candiac! bon visionnement et bonne créativité xx

[@Queenie-the-genie]

I am so glad to have discoved, accidentally, that you are back! Hurray... My word for the year is actually 2 words - full recovery. I was hit by a car as a pedestrian last October and I have a concussion. I am a very old artist and this has been difficult to deal with. Pablo Picasso, who died: April 8, 1973 at age 91, said that artists live so long because they leave themselves outside the door while they are working. His old girfriend from Paris - whom he got together with during WW2 - Franscoise Gilot - died not long ago at 102 and both made art until they could no longer. Gilot wrote a very good book..."Life With Picasso" I have read it more than once.

[@creationsceecee]

I am sending you so much love and light as you journey towards full recovery! ❤️

[@mixedmedialife7916]

I'm so glad to wake up to this! Wishing you a very Happy New Year, Ceecee! Bonne et heureuse annee😅🎉

[@creationsceecee]

Merci beaucoup!

[@sandravermes4219]

Lovely and lively! Just so surprised there is no gold!!

[@creationsceecee]

[@delislemarie-claude1074]

Depuis le 1er janvier, mes projets de création ont été suspendus tous les jours, soit par des visites impromptues, soit par des événements inattendus et ce matin voici que vous m’offrez 1:25 de plénitude. Mon maître-mot cette année sera donc « surprises ». J’essaie de rester ouverte à ce que ces surprises apportent à ma créativité. Une surprise est intéressante parce qu’on ne peut ni la planifier, ni l’attendre, pas même l’espérer puisque dès lors elle n’est plus. On ne peut la revivre non plus avec la même intensité qu’au moment même où elle advient. Un mot qui ne se conçoit qu’au présent n’est-il pas le plus zen qui soit ? Maintenant je retourne à mon projet, mon âme toute imprégnée de votre esprit superbement artistique. Très heureuse année CeeCee !😮

[@creationsceecee]

tout à fait d'accord avec vous. quel beau mot, éphémère à mon avis. il ne s'agit que d'un souffle et il s'évapore mais sa trace demeure dans la créativité qu'il a inspiré. Une très bonne et heure année à vous aussi, Marie-Claude!

[@Suzi77]

Hello, just curious do you think of composition when you do your doodles. I do doodles and I don’t think of it most of the time. I do think of what colour combinations I like, and varying the sizes of the shapes, but I don’t consciously plan where I put them. Happy 2025. 🎉🙋🏼‍♀️🌻🇨🇦 p.s. my Word for this year is resilience.

[@creationsceecee]

thanks! i have discussed my process for this type of doodles at the beginning of the video :-)

[@Polkadotpup]

Lovely as always. You could just do the video with no sound if that would make it easier. I do like your music choice.

[@lynnegillis8910]

My word for the year is MAGIC... because I feel like that's what I want to bring to life... a greater appreciation of and attention to the magic that is a part of every day - and also a conduit for creating magic in my days/for my people. I was thinking about your word... and wondering if CURIOUS might be something to consider? It feels like this could be a year of exploration for you in terms of the revenue streams, and maybe a word that invites a bit of play and testing out might take some of the pressure off? Just a thought. I am so glad you are showing up more in this space... I always learn so much from you!

[@creationsceecee]

i absolutely love your suggestion! i'm also liking exploration. 🤔 thank you for your comment, Lynne!

[@samanthaschubert154]

Thank you so much for this relaxing video. As for words in reference to diversification how about "broaden" or "radiate"?

[@Kathleenew]

So beautiful and relaxing! Thank you for sharing your process. I really like the addition of the transparent red oxide and what you achieved with the white gel pen--and the gold, of course. Was the 27 Dec 24 the date of completion? So interesting to see how this became a finished piece.

[@creationsceecee]

thank you so much and yes the date is when i completed the page. very observent on your part :-)

[@marilynnew2189]

I always love watching you work and your creativity blows me away. I already own one of your pieces, but would love to buy this one as well, as it compliments the previous one so well. Could you respond so that I might know if you want to sell?

[@creationsceecee]

thank you for purchasing my art, Marilyn! i appreciate your request; however, this one is not for sale as it is part of my journal. i intend to do similar pieces on regular watercolor paper this year so stay tuned! wishing you all the best for this year :-)

Hi CeeCee, thank you so much. I love this video. It comes totally right to my words for this year. Don't run, go slowly, because where you need to go is only to yourself!
