Hi Shannon I’ve just caught up with this, really sorry to hear you’ve had some big life changes. Really brave of you to talk about it on here. I’m glad you’ve got a lot of positive things to look forward to- your artwork and your amazing trip to Kenya. Take care of yourself

[@monalisamackey783]

Hi Shannon, I have been watching your videos/vlogs for a little while now and I have found you to be such an inspiration and joy to follow! 😊. I will be joining your Patreon by the weekend and am really excited to learn from you! I never thought I would want to use coloured pencils as an art medium, but it looks very enjoyable and therapeutic and can produce such gorgeous realistic results! I love your beautiful personality and your conversational style in your videos. I also love the variety of content you provide…vlogs, tutorials, information re products/supplies, and tips/tricks. Hoping the rest of your week is full of inspiration, blessings, and joy 🙏🏻💕

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much, I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos and you’re going to try coloured pencils! I hope you love using them as much as I do 🥰 Have a lovely week yourself, thank you for your lovely comment 🤍

Hi Shannon, if you do come to Australia would you be able to do a class over here? I will definitely come xx

Hi Shannon, I'm so sorry that you've had such a tough time but I do feel this is a massive time of expansion for you and you are transitioning towards something bigger. Sometimes the arrow has to be pulled right back so that it can project us further forwards. You're going through a sort of grieving period so give yourself time and space to heal. You did a brave thing coming on here and sharing personal aspects, so give yourself a pat on the back and take care of yourself. Sending you love and strength x

[@shannonmullin]

What a lovely comment, thank you so much 🥹🤍 xx

Hi Shannon, I'm really sorry for what you are going through. It is good that you have loving people around you, nature and yr incredible artistic talent and gift. Your vlog is amazing as usual and thank you for sharing. Sending all the best and positive vibes.❤

[@gillmorgan6174]

I love all your videos Shannon ❤ So sorry to hear you’ve been through the mill but wishing you better times ahead and all the very best for your new chapter in life. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re so good at it! 😊

[@paulwoodford1984]

Oh god it’s better being single. Stay single and play the field and have fun while you still can. Art and doing your own thing is all that matters

[@juliawhite9977]

You have clearly been very brave Shannon ❤Get out and enjoy the beautiful countryside! Your portrait of the rabbits is wonderful ❤You will feel better every day 😊

[@MichelleCorbinDesign]

Aw Shannon I am so sorry you are going through a hard time. Be kind to yourself and I’m sure things will feel better soon. Xxx

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much Michelle 🤍 xxx

[@mariereilly5176]

Hi Shannon, your looking great. Every path we travel is always there for a better reason we know nothing about, like you Paddy will be just waiting till he sees you. I grew up with English Bull Terriers, they totally steal your heart. You will always rise to the top Shannon XXXX

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much! I can find comfort knowing he’s really happy as he’s with his bull terrier friend and they play all day 🥰 They do they’re the cuddliest, most loving dogs! Thank you 🥹🤍 xxx

[@ThePencilist0101]

You're not the only one making major changes in life. Now that I am retired living in my home with its small studio has become so extravagantly expensive I am being forced to return to the state of Oregon, my place of birth where the cost of living is less than half of what it is here in Washington. Next time you see me it will be from a much smaller space. Meanwhile, stay positive and continue moving forward.

[@j.patrickbowman3701]

hello from The Dalles!

[@shannonmullin]

I’m sorry you’re being forced to do that! Hopefully it will bring some new opportunities for you and you’ll be better off for it in the long run. Thank you so much! 🙏🏼

[@lsmulvihill]

I absolutely love your videos Shannon. Wishing you every success and happiness as you navigate this tough time. One of the hardest parts of life is to be able to let things or people go to make room for what and who is to come. Keep up your fabulous work

[@shannonmullin]

I’m so glad you enjoy them! Thank you very much 🥹🤍

[@bimmermom]

I’m so sorry you’re going through some difficult life changes but glad you feel like you can share some on here …. We don’t need details just know we are here for you and the fact you can go see Paddy is lovely for you. What a wonderful day out with your dad .. I really envy the area you live in and near - I’d love to go on that train ride. Take care

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much that’s really kind 🥺 It was the best day we both really enjoyed it! I’m glad I filmed it too, so I can re-watch it someday 🤍

[@TmHudsonArt]

Sorry to hear about your upheaval. I'd struggle losing the dog too. I lost both my oldies this year to old age so I understand it is tough. Now I have a new puppy and she is sucking time away from my work haha.... Hope things are back on track for you soon. I'm sure they will be.

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much! It’s a huge change but I’m so grateful I do still get to see him although not as much 🤍 Hahaha they’re so worth it though! Thank you 🥰

[@AnggiSahamCantik]

Breaking up is hard. Sending you positive vibe 🙏

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much 🤍

[@RobertFinger-e8f]

Another wonderful video Shannon. Sharing your personal story with us is good for you and your viewers. Sometimes in life we go through changes that are a little scary because it's a change from the norm. Sometimes these changes are necessary for us to grow. They can also be a hidden blessing that actually is better than life was before the change! Sending you positivity and happiness! Again, outstanding work! Bob😊

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you for always being so kind Bob! Your lovely comments don’t go unnoticed 🥹

[@RobertFinger-e8f]

I comment with complete honesty. You're a great artist with a big heart for fellow artists, family and friends! I'm grateful to follow you on Instagram and being a loyal KZbin subscriber! Keep up your great work! Bob😊

Hi Shannon, lovely vlog (and the new closing-of-video cartoon-like drawing) Sorry to hear your news; allow yourself all the time you need & a new routine will find you. You have Kenya most def to look forward to! Give me a shout if you are ever in Edinburgh - workshop or not! 🙂

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much, you’re right time is a healer! That’s really kind thank you, hopefully I’ll get to come back to Edinburgh for a weekend away again soon it’s one of my favourite places 🥰

[@carolinesmith3350]

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you so much Caroline 🥰 x

[@janehardcastle9602]

Lovely vlog Shannon ❤❤

[@shannonmullin]

Thank you Jane 🥰🤍

[@michellenwhiteartist]

Hi Shannon, I love your videos and I noticed you have the printer I am planning to buy, but I would like to know if it is suitable for 300gsm paper and if the printer works well with the thickness! could you share your thoughts please. Thank you for sharing your beautiful art.

[@shannonmullin]

Hi Michelle, I’m glad you’re loving the videos! It doesn’t work too great with thick paper sadly, it can get jammed when I use 300gsm. Although recently it hasn’t jammed much at all but it’s just temperamental sometimes!

[@fatcat3211]

I think your pencil holder is called a "lazy susan" or "dumbwaiter". 😃

[@shannonmullin]

That’s the one!! Thank you ☺️
