Those dragonflies are softening my heart toward them in general. They swarmed my small children at school and ate our butterflies that we so lovingly hatched and watched til they were ready to fly…but not straight to the dragonfly mouthed that were waiting😮!

Hi Diane, I recently started watercolour dabbling and absolutely love your way of learning and doing. I used a cheap metallic set of paints for the warm up. Thank you for the tip to not use too many colours. I thoroughly enjoyed the exercise and then painted the dragonflies. You really show us that anyone can do it. Our efforts might not look exactly like your originals but it's totally possible to produce something pretty and satisfying. I'm learning so much about how the watercolour paints behave on the paper. I love your sweet, whimsical designs. Thank you so much xx

Thanks for suggesting this Diane. I too, had thought about just doing neurographica with a brush. The softening of the corners is to aid the meditative process. I watched a video yesterday and this woman used a huge chisel sharpie likely for the same reason you mentioned, to “get on with it.” But the concept is to allow the neuro pathways to rest without the internal critic getting in the way and trying to direct the outcome. I laughed out loud when you said “no one is going to say, ‘oh, my warm up isn’t good enough.’” The perfectionist is an evil brat always trying to control and we must shut it up. Neurographica provides a method to do that. I finally got to the point of saying to myself “oh well, someone will like it” if I’m not happy with a piece. Back to finish up this video now. Blessings to you!

Hi Rita, thanks very much for your interesting comments. This neurographic art certainly is a thing at the moment! I have to admit to having a bit of a negative feeling sometimes about sharpies. They are really useful for labelling parcels, and making signs to hang on the wall. I can’t see how they can be considered beneficial for creating any kind of art. So when I say I need to get on with things my approach is to find a more gentle technique than the average sharpie can provide! Hence using a brush and gold paint! Obviously the lines are not as clear as with a sharpie. But somehow that doesn’t seem to matter! I tried to put as little conscious control into it as possible. This was the first one I’ve ever done! I will do more!

@@DianeAntoneStudio oh gosh, I completely agree with you about sharpies. While watching her I was thinking ‘how do you stand that smell?’ The smell of sharpies makes me gag. For pens I’m a staedler and pigma micron fan only. I’ve never liked sharpies for art. The color is uneven and hard to control. I love the artist that you are. You’ve helped me to loosen up so much and I’m grateful to you for that. I too, love Louise and Harriet, but I’m trying to let go of always needing to be in control of outcome. That’s when I get overly sensitive to the internal perfectionist critic, ugh. I can’t wait to see your other neurographica tutorials. You did a great one first time out. Blessings to you, your family, and the critters! Happy Easter.

This is such a lovely way to start the day. I thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial. Tamsin's idea of a neurographic painting idea is a great idea and so relaxing. Your painting reminded me of some real stone pebbles that we just installed on our shower floor. Ours is a pallet of colors on the more gray, tan colored, so not as pretty as yours, and I love that you used gold. The dragonflies could not be more perfect. I could watch you sketch and paint all day! Diane and Tamsin, I love how you ended the video showing your beautiful outdoors and adorable cat and wow...those hens look as cozy as can be!

Hi Carolyn, thanks so much for your lovely comments! Really glad that you enjoyed that video. It’s one of my favourites too! Yes the hens are nice and safe now under the netting although it’s not quite finished yet! Notice how Oriel the cat was bossing everybody around- almost as much as my husband! I’d like to say who did all the work? Well it wasn’t the cat! I think the neurographic warmup looks exactly like pebbles too! I can just see them on the floor of your shower now!

With your loose style, I can use your paintings as inspiration. My seascape, inspired your last one, looks like our local beaches instead of the coast of Brittany. I can learn something from each tutor on KZbin even if I can’t copy any of you.

Hi Deirdre, you’re absolutely right! Everyone has something to teach. And I often watch other artists and try to pick up tips here and there.

But not everybody agrees! I’m glad you’re learning and enjoying it! Thank you again for commenting!

The gold really makes every thing work together. I don't invalidate any type of creative therapy. Sorry if I gave off the wrong impression. I never had the confidence of being good at anything. We couldn't always afford coloring books. My sister and I would ''scribble'' quite similar to this. I used this 'method' all my life, particularly working through depression and anxiety. I would draw smaller pictures inside the shapes, words etc. I think my first thought was 'people making money from others at vulnerable times'. Which I now know was so wrong.

Hi Teri, thanks very much for sharing something of your childhood art journey. I was very similar, and as the child of poor but hard-working parents I used to drive them to distraction with my need to be constantly creating! Christmas was always exciting as I might get a paint box or one of those big fat colouring books! But for the rest of the year I had to make do with what I could lay my hands on. The inside of cereal boxes and the like. So I know exactly where you’re coming from. The neurographic art could easily be a big con, I don’t know anything about the details of the psychology behind it. But it has been adapted to a “popular“ version which is what I was having a go at. I think it makes a good warmup technique don’t you? I really did feel released from my inhibitions after I had done that and it enabled me to paint my dragonflies! We put so many expectations on ourselves. Anyway thank you again for your comments, it’s very helpful and interesting for me to hear from you. Happy painting!

Dragonflies are one of my favorite things to paint. I wanted to thank you for exposing us to Neurographic Art - I really didn't know what it was until now. And you are right - it is a lovely way to loosen up before painting. Thank you again for your insight and sharing.

Hi Anne, Thanks so much for your kind comments and your generosity! I’m glad you enjoyed the dragonflies - they are one of the easiest things to paint I think which give great pleasure. Glad you enjoyed the warmup exercise!

Do you do plein-air painting? It sounds like you would have many subjects outside your door.

How do you decide where to sign your painting? For example, in a clear place for it, or blended into the picture.

Hi Jane, I usually look for a little space and put it in there not too large. If there isn’t a space, I just sign over the unimportant part in a corner. I don’t sign the ones I do in videos, only paintings which I sell x

Neuro graphic with paint is brilliant! The marker thing didn't work for me. Couldn't help but think the veining in the wings of the dragon fly could be done as a Neuro graphic exercise as well....

Yes, that's a brilliant idea!!! I wonder whether a dragonfly could be encouraged to emerge from the network of neurographic lines.....
