[@pixelmountainstudios]

It is hard for me to express how much you inspire me. Your creativity and talent have no bounds. I so enjoy watching our videos. I am starting my journey into Acrylic as I found nearly all Disney artists create in this media. The bold colors and illustrative style are the direction I want to go. Thank you for the inspiration. Your cat portrait is truly amazing.

[@jillelainejones]

I guess I’m late to the party says this was done a year ago. I just had to comment how beautiful and perfect it was. Colors gorgeous! Thank you for inspiring me.!

[@milkyblue.studio]

Awww... Matilda is such a model! Her portrait came out beautifully! I love your lettering as well. I really appreciate all your tips, I always struggle to put anything on the first pages of my sketchbooks, I have so much anxiety around it that all my sketchbooks have empty first pages... 😹

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you!! I hope this video helped with getting over the anxiety!

[@leighlou5345]

You've just become one of my favorite KZbin (or otherwise) watercolor painters, my god... you are so awesome. I think that being an artist with a progressive neuromuscular disease that I was born with, I'm mostly so jealous at how steady and smoothly your strokes are.

[@cuboidgamez7577]

What a coincidence that you uploaded it right when I got my first sketchbook xD Congrats for 200k subs in advance, you inspired me to try traditional art

[@pameehanson3866]

[@Fluffs..]

Whenever I start my sketchbooks i usually end up with something not as good as the next few pages, so before I always finish the book I go back and redraw what I drew before. With new understandings of whatever I learned! ^^

[@RachelleByersArt]

I also love doing letters. Especially creating new fun letters

[@happyredpanda]

Such a beautiful kitty! Both the drawing and the real one 🙂 The eyes are so well done on the drawing, so alive.
