Wow! Before this even began I am considering joining skillshare again JUST to watch Samantha. Thank you. Advertising does work. 😚😂😂

[@Nianiani]

Hahaha xD

[@kimberlymay6645]

Best pinecone tutorial I've seen ! I stumbled on this by chance and now I'm headed to your page to subscribe and learn from you. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@helenduncum4476]

Thank you for your tutorial! I really enjoyed painting the pinecone. I've only been painting a few weeks, and just got my own paints and paper for Christmas.

[@amyovard4817]

Oh girl!!! You are in a class above the rest!!! Your work is so clean and your structures are always on point! I seriously love watching your videos because I’m learning so much! Thank you so much for all the hard work and sharing your talent with the rest of us! I always get excited for “Nia Day”! So whenever you post a new video or if I need inspiration, I call it “a Nia Day”!! Hahaha! 😆😆💖💖

[@Nianiani]

Hahahaha woww I get a day xD that's just the cutest thing

[@sassylass9406]

@Amy Ovard~ That’s so sweet & spot on! . ✨ I was going to say the exact thing myself! I’ve watched so many video’s on this topic. Nia is a natural. By that she’s a teacher and an artist. Most importantly it’s her patience. I have never seen anyone I don’t believe as good as her. So thank you Nia for sharing your talent, and thanks Amy for letting me share on your awesome post. ~J

This is a really great tutorial. Thank you so much!

[@Doggymomma52]

Love your pine cone explanations. You are so thourough. ❤

[@Nianiani]

glad it was useful ^_^

[@thebirdartistscottage]

Even though I’m an experienced artist, I sometimes find myself getting lost or intimidated when drawing pine cones! You made this so clear and accessible! I’m especially excited about doing this tutorial because I need to include conifer cones in some of the bird illustrations I’m doing for the book I’m working on. Thanks so much for your wonderful instruction and teaching! 💝

[@Nianiani]

You're always welcome! :D:D

[@ladyhecate9450]

Great video and I loved how you drew but mostly painted this pinecone. I have seen other artists paint them in watercolor, but they do not come nowhere near your painting. Well done!

[@ladyhecate9450]

P.S. My pine trees are three pong and very long. They are very tall, i.e., at least 30 feet tall and sway back and forth when the wind blows. At the top of these Pinetrees is where most of the pineneedles are. Looks like a bunch of broccoli trees. But they drop beautiful pinecone. I will have to try this. I enjoyed your teaching very much.

[@Nianiani]

Thank you so much! :D Oh your pine trees sound very interesting, a bit scary when it sways? xD

[@ASMR-ug2pt]

Your drawing gives me peace. 👍

[@Nianiani]

Aww so glad!

[@ginnyhoppe4770]

[@kathryngodsiff9470]

Thank you!! I live in a ponderosa pine forest and spend all year picking up dang pine cones. You'd think that being up close and personal with them would make deconstructing one to paint an easy task. NOT! This is the tutorial I've been waiting for!!

[@Nianiani]

Hahaha yea they're not the easiest to draa and paint because of the details and form

[@catherinebeduer3838]

Oh, Nia, I'm so glad you did a pinecone, I love it so much !! 🤩🎨🖌🌲🤩🥰 I loved bringing some back from my walks. I only have one left, but the most beautiful. 😉😀 Wonderful success !! 👌🤗🤩 Congratulations and thank you so much, Nianiani. 💕🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😊🌹❤🙋‍♀️🇨🇵🥰
