I enjoy your videos so much. You're like a friend, natural and easy. I appreciate how you show the things that didn't quite go as planned and how you adjusted.

Aww that’s nice to hear, it’s a bit weird chatting and giggling away to myself, I image my virtual are friends in the room with me too 😂👀🥰

[@dedefitzpatrick4092]

I will do this several times to get the backward thinking! Thank you Susan for simplifying❤️❤️

[@susanmccreevyartist]

Yes it’s not that easy, had to practice a few times till I got this one right 😀🤣

[@annagray4208]

Lovley vlog again. Thank you, Susan. I use a smooth round quartz rock i found on the beach to rub the back of the paper with. It feels lovely and natural and does a great job.

[@susanmccreevyartist]

Thanks for watching Anna! The stone idea sounds much nicer than this scratchy piece of plastic. Will be on the hunt now 😘😀

A great video thanks so much

[@susanmccreevyartist]

Very welcome 🤗

[@natural09100]

This is a lovely video. I was thinking the masking papers would make a good collage image 😊 Is that a pepper pot you used to shake out the graphite...😮x

[@susanmccreevyartist]

Yes, it is a pepper pot 😉

[@artbyIngebjorg4553]

Thank you ❤❤

[@susanmccreevyartist]

You're welcome 😊

[@EmilyBlitzer]

Lovely.. Did you sketch it out first so you know where to mask each piece and know where the colors go?

[@susanmccreevyartist]

I had a couple of inspiration images to the right of me, I searched blue mountain landscapes on Pinterest and this gave me a fun starting point 💙💙💙
