Hello Julie, thank you for watching and this lovely comment 🥰

[@kimcragin4929]

Love the beginnerish feelings and thoughts...... And the antidote is......just change the thoughts....I can't to I can!! So simple, yet so hard!!! I love your positive mindset and sense of adventure.....play!!! Thank you so much for your inspiration.❤

[@gaynorpattle]

It is hard but the more you practice the easier it becomes second nature - I tell myself daily !!!! Have a lovely week XX

I love where the flower seller is going. That bucket was a good idea.

Thank you X

[@LizB55]

Buildings a wonderful idea. You can play with ageing stonework and rusty seeping walls and texture. Very exciting to see where this goes. Thank you for sharing your beginnings, not just when you’ve mastered. It really helps people like me who have that fear of something new and you have made me bolder in experimenting. 🤗

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Liz, Really lovely to read that you are experimenting more....for me it is definitely where the fun is 🥰

[@sue8237]

Lovely watching you. Your joy and enthusiasm (and thoughts) are delightfully contagious.

I love how much love there is, for and from you, your art, new beginnings, surprising (intermediate) endings, newly discovered colors, plants, doorways, paint, everywhere, on paper, in concertinas, on canvases, hands and dirty brushes. If I get to come back another life, I might come back as yellow ocher and make love to sky blue 😅🥰

I enjoyed your video this morning Gaynor. Amazing concertina book. I am amazed at how well your paintings turn out because you work so quickly. I am much slower and too detailed sometimes, wish I could loosen up my work. But we are all different. Thank you for posting your week of art, always appreciated. Keep going.

Particularly thank you for sharing your thoughts & feelings about "starting" new projects, your inner dialogue - negs vs. positives - and your process of "getting on". Welcome inspiration, just what I needed to hear this morning. I'm really loving the combo of yellow ochre w/white and blues. We are having beautiful fall days here in New England, U.S. as well.

[@RobboJ30]

Love your Malta stuff. I think the cerulean and ochre combo is great - earthier. Many years since I was there but I’ve never forgotten the skies. Just seemed the brightest blue ever and perfect contrast to the yellowy tones of the earth and buildings. Was in Venice this year and got a door fixation😂 Have a look at Maltese balconies - it’s a whole new subject! Arabic and Moorish influences to design and colour. Thanks for cheering me up today - not a great one for me but feel better for watching you create. Jill R x

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Jill, your Venice fixation made me smile....how many times have I told Craig to slam the brakes on in order that I can photograph old doors, gates and sheds !!! The balconies were beautiful and before I get through the concertina, hopefully they will appear ! Thank you for watching and I hope you have a better day tomorrow ❤❤

[@KathyBrooksArt]

How delightful! Thanks for speaking to procrastination, and when then negatives set in, I've written down (for my studio wall) "Progress not perfection!" as a reminder, thank you! Love the Rome florist car, concertina, and the demos of WN Yellow Ochre and blues mixes, so interesting. Your paintings inspired by Malta are looking wonderful!

[@gaynorpattle]

Hi Kathy, thank you, thank you, thank you 😍

I get so many ideas and encouragement from your videos keep them coming and God Bless You .

Oh the vegetables are so pretty. Each flip of the page is as if we were strolling thru your garden. Love the texture.❤ i just love watching you paint. What a great idea to mount your photos on the wall to guide you in your color pallet, mood, and inspiration. I recently acquired a book with gorgeous pictures of Tuscany and I could follow your technique except with watercolors. I look forward to each and every one of your videoos!!❤

[@guitardee1]

Really enjoyed this one, I loved your doors and shutters. but the little sand dunes one spoke to me as soon as I saw it, even before you explained. Right away I saw the sands of the South Coast in Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa, with the broken fences showing a time now gone. So its a universal painting really where we can all remember a time and place. Plus I love Yellow Ochre, its such a useful colour. Thanks again for a great video, its been a long day waiting for my chance to watch uninterrupted.

[@guitardee1]

The reason I'm interested in yellow ochre is that I've been working using the colours of Anders Zorn and how many colours you can make from such a limited palette. It's a bit of a rabbit hole actually

[@gaynorpattle]

So So pleased....I've decided, just this morning to reference the small beach paintings to make one bigger one ! Very excited 💃when I get excited, I imagine myself prancing with castanets, wearing a very swishy red dress 🤣Have a wonderful week XXX

Thank you Gaynor for your continued sharing and explanations to what your thoughts are. I cannot seem to get out of my own way, I have so many creative ideas, yet I cannot stay focused for the life of me. Is this procrastination, fear, perhaps a bit of both? It is utterly ridiculous to not complete my pieces when I have all the supplies that I need at hand. I am constantly switching between projects. I didn’t use to be this way. I’m not sure if this happens to others but I took an extensive on line course that was fantastic but since this I cannot seem to complete what I start. I took the course a year ago! Watching your videos truly inspire me to get going. Sending big hugs! ❤

[@gaynorpattle]

Morning Sam, how about....instead of thinking COMPLETE, think of just spending time with your pieces, enjoy working on them, let them develop. It took me ages to stop thinking OUTCOME. If you feel overwhelmed by too much going on, put some things away, don't look at them for a good while and when you have a lull, get them out and see with fresh eyes ! Fresh eyes spark new ideas !

[@SimoneWhippArtist]

Very informative video Gaynor. I like seeing the mixing blue with the yellow ochre - some interesting colour combinations and with the tint, tone, shade! There is so much inspiration to be gleaned from the Malta photographs. I have a question. How do you know when to start to make a painting to sell on? When does the experimentation cease and the 'real' painting start; or is it that the experimentation's evolve to be the finished piece? I have a second question. When you have an art exhibition, do you have a particular theme or are the pieces all stand alone? Love watching you Gaynor. You are my warm up before I start doing my art! ☺

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Simone, very good questions 😊 I put down paint freely for quite a while, then I start to see potential, an idea forms in my head and I have the sense of knowing where I'm going. It is rare for me to work on a single painting - I like to work across several in rotation with the same palette. The exhibition space can vary so it's a case of loading as much as I can in the boot and experimenting on the hanging day !! Have a great creative week🥰

[@SimoneWhippArtist]
