First time watcher... I love your upper right hand corner info! Haven't seen that until now 👍Considered purchasing the silicone tools for writing but again you are the first I've seen use them for dotting. It was a pleasure watching!!!! You are very talented!

[@TheDottingCenter]

Thanks Melissa! I appreciate your comments. The silicone tools have become part of my must have tool set. Definitely worth trying them out.

Thank you for this video !!! I have stencils but find them intimidating - until now !!!

[@TheDottingCenter]

Stencils should make your job easier. They help me break out of creative blocks. Thanks for watching!

[@Sallyhomesteader]

Lovely stone. :)

[@TheDottingCenter]

Thank you so much Aislinn 😘❤️

[@ArtJournalJunkie]

Great tutorial! Thank you so much. I’ve been dotting for a couple of years and have wanted to do a spiral like this for a while. Going to try it out!

[@carlawebb977]

Great video and I am shocked that I actually have the Color Shift paints that I found at Walmart. Your color choices are always SO beautiful. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent. Happy New Year to you and your family. 2021 will be a wonderful year. 🙂

[@TheDottingCenter]

Thank you!

From Patricia Sclafani, not Michael Sclafani: I've watched other tutorials that talk about not touching the rock with the tools. I love the tool photos on top right. This seems to be more of a step by step process. I do wish there was more detail on application and varnish product. Came out very pretty.

[@TheDottingCenter]

Thanks for your feedback Patricia. I'll spend more time on showing varnish application in the future.👍

[@user-ks2mc9lr3m]

What paints do u suggest for a beginner rock painter. I have all the tools shown in your video, which was excellent

[@TheDottingCenter]

I like DecoArt Americana fluid acrylic paint. 😊

[@kassandrakid9440]

If you don’t mind me asking, what kind of paint are you using? I’m still pretty new to dotting but I recently purchased some really nice or arteza paints as well as Golden fluid acrylics. I have course have deco art americana satin multi surface and some colors. The deco art americana that is not satin or multi surface does not seem to work quite as well. I’m pretty sure it’s a pigment problem. I’m looking for any advice about paints that I can get. The spiral is beautiful. I really love the colors. They remind me of my Arteza paints. I do, however, have to thin out the Artesa paints with some floetrol. No way to do a top chart if your bottom that has a peak. So if you have any pointers on that kind of thing as well, it would be greatly appreciated! Fantastic video I love your channel!❤️. So I discovered what paint you used by looking in your description. My apologies. I also remembered my main question. Are my flexible stencils that I already have appropriate for working on rocks? And if not, where can I find some that work for rocks? Thanks again :-)

[@TheDottingCenter]

Paints - I use all the ones you listed. Arteza thinned with Floetrol is perfect! I use Liquitex pouring medium, but I've heard that it gets the same results. Check out my website for flexible stencils for rocks and rounded objects: www.thedottingcenter.com Thanks for watching! 💞

[@kassandrakid9440]

@@TheDottingCenter 😊 thank you!

[@kassandrakid9440]

I checked out the link that you sent me regarding the stencils for rocks or rounded objects. I’m still not sure which ones I’m supposed to order. I saw a three pack of flexible stencils but I was hoping for more variety and in this tutorial you show a spiral stencil which I am interested in getting. I have flexible plastic stencils… A few of them… But they aren’t very flexible. Can you please tell me what makes your product different? Also I would be looking for the largest variety of flexible stencils as possible. If you could please recommend which of your stencils work for rocks, that would be perfect. Thank you!!

[@kassandrakid9440]

Hi I send you another message regarding needing clarification on which stencils to get and I had a couple other questions too. You should see it in the comments above this one. Thanks

[@marikadurzo379]

Hi i'm from Italy could you tell me where i can find stencil to start Paint mandala on Stones?

[@deborahlinn6312]

Where do you get your rocks .?

[@TheDottingCenter]

Lowe's has a huge bag of Mexican Beach Pebbles for $8.

[@lindaward1900]

Where can I buy the 8 point stencil please.

[@TheDottingCenter]

[@dianefuentes3783]

[@TheDottingCenter]

[@victoriac5377]
