I just love listening to your voice and your sharing in the moments that delight you as an Artist. Thank You

[@dawnkarasaki6172]

Love, love, love this technique with the watercolors.❤️ I don’t need music, I enjoy listening to you Robin.

[@Susancshell]

Love your videos and am learning so much..I keep re-watching as I keep learning more.. always little bits I miss so very helpful and I just like having them going while I work as asmr... you get more views and I have a happier day looking forward to playing and trying new things when I log off. 🙂

[@karenpruis501]

Love it and love you. Just be yourself and do what you like. You can't please everyone. Warm regards Karen.

[@kathyakadragonflysmiles301]

Really enjoyed the integration of watercolor, inks, acrylic and gold leafing

[@healingmagichands]

Scrumptious work!

[@nabbyr8112]

Oh! Oh! I just got my plate today and am just heading downstairs to my basement studio to try it out. Love, love, love this watercolor/gold leaf technique. I have so many things to try, thanks to you. Believe me, having you as my Art Guide is better than a Spirit Guide or any other Guide!

[@MsArtistwannabe]

Yet another beautiful session of cards.thank you so much for sharing on you tube.

[@marisaoneill8177]

Love the idea of having a layer of watercolor - so delicate but so impactful.

[@Rosiescreativewings]

Totally loving that rustic mixed media, grungy texture! 💕👍

[@ellenmasters9178]

Love love what you are doing. Thanks for another beautiful video.

[@janecridland5105]

This is a drop dead gorgeous process! I’m going to try it right now! They’re magic!

[@karenkijinski6271]

Happy dance. Love this technique.

[@scrapstobeautybyzandra]

Your cards are so unique and love all the layers especially your hand drawn lettering. I'm Patti's friend that sells her rose gold. it is fun making watercolors.

[@RobynMcClendon]

Hi Zandra, thank you so much for introducing yourself, I love your watercolors! Please if you don't mind share your contact info, I have so many who will want to get your product as I'm using that rose gold quite a bit :) I'll put the links below my videos and share with my Patreon followers :)

[@scrapstobeautybyzandra]

@@RobynMcClendon Thanks so much, I have it in my shop: Paintandpaperstudio.com

[@bette-annflood835]

Very nice. Your videos are always fun. Love knowing you can use watercolor on the gelli. Wasn't sure it would work. Thanks!!!

[@Miastrong930]

Great video. Learned a lot. Liked the the watercolor and the layers.

[@karlasolomon8128]

As always watching you makes me want to go create!

[@LaerkeNissen]

Just love this Robyn - yummy yummy, thanks for sharing

[@sharonpetty6101]

As always, I love EVERYTHING you do!!!! I especially love your color palette and you tell how you mix the real and orange to get the khaki color! I love the layers and how each layer adds different interest! I don't care if you play music or don't play it!!! If you sniff of not!!! (Although I do care if you are struggling with allergies!) I just love that you give so much of yourself to your art!!!! And you are sharing it with others!!!! SO GLAD to have found you on here and now on Patreon too! I just love watching you do your thing!!! :-) xoxo

[@sharonpetty6101]

Teal and orange!!!! Spell check - arghhhh! Ha!

[@sharonpetty6101]

Just got my mail!!! Sent you an email!!! Merci beaucoup!!!!

[@lizderby5433]

awesome, as always! you always inspire me to create. love your conversations throughout, as i pick up so many tips and tricks. thanks for all you do.

[@gailierunning-lynx6086]

Yep it's all good Robyn!! Thanks for another beautiful and inspiring session!! And Thank You too for all that great resource information and all those links!! Really appreciate it!! Helps so much!! xoxo!!

[@alemapretsof]

Might you have ever been a teacher? I was (am) and your teaching style reminds me of my own. You explain how and why you do steps, point out the end product that was relayed to the viewer in the beginning, i.e., expected results. The sheer opacity was predicted as demonstration began (and throughout), followed by the results coming in as expected. Thanks! I sure appreciate that you still do regular clips here on KZbin.

[@marianbrown4173]

Love love so beautiful

[@scrapbagstudios]

More glorious art making. Thanks Robyn. :)

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

So so gorgeous!

[@samaradruckenbrod1156]

I going to play with these ideas right now! Love you Robyn!

[@grandbaygranny]

Wow...great technique!

very pretty - ALL of it! it's for me; that's for sure. love michele xx

[@jenniferedwards6238]

So beautiful. Your skill level is impressive. I’ve not ventured into this art medium yet. You make it interesting and now I wanna try it. 😄

[@natalieangelheart2483]

Love your work!❤ Always be true to you Robyn and the right people will be drawn to you. 😁 I can never understand people who complain about videos lol, they're free, there's a volume button you can use to lower or mute the music and view just the video and if you don't like it, click out of it but don't criticize! 🙏💞🤗🦋💐

[@karenjames5063]

Love this and your scripting is wonderful.

[@dinieherbert]

Robyn, these are so beautiful. I got my Rolodex in I ordered from Ebay yesterday. (Dotspocket did not have any listed) Can't wait to rewatch all the Gellidex videos and start on mine. Got to order some more blank Rolodex cards (if I can find them). I'm sure I have to order more supplies too. Thanks again for your sharing your talent.

[@sherylesp2272]

You are so very talented , love your work 😊❤️

[@susansacco7583]

I was excited before but I’m really blown away now! I love watercolor and paint with them 90% of the time. It’s so amazing what you were able to do with so little watercolor! Your cards are gorgeous! Have you tried using your favorite 100% cotton paper with this technique? I have tomoe River paper that I’m going to try this with. While I’m waiting for my Martha Steward champagne paint to come do you think buff titanium will be ok for the first layer? Thanks so much for this inspiring video!

[@jonihorn6515]

Hi Robyn, Great video. Love your technique! Been a fan for quite a while now. I was wondering if you have ever used a glaze of just matte medium before your ink markings? Since we can not get that beautiful champagne gold paint from Martha Stewart. TFS. Joni

[@koyosensebe8027]

Always amazing!

[@lindawitherspoon446]

I loved the music.

[@blackitten2]

Your cards are beautiful. Love the way you build them up. I don't like gloppy paint either. xox

[@momapes]

Beautiful as always, Robyn. I didn't catch the name of your metallic watercolors- would love to have a set like that. Would you mind writing the name in this comment? I couldn't enlarge well enough to see the name. They look like well made watercolors! Thanks for the video......

[@RobynMcClendon]

It is an unusual product name to catch :) here's a link so that you can check them out...Thx :) Kuretake Gansai Tambi Starry colors 6 color set MC20SC/6V amzn.to/2pWc7oI

[@cherylberry1613]

Kool techniques! Where do you get the gelli board? Is that what it is called? I just found it your channel so I need to watch the rest of your videos to catch up. Thanks for a fun and interesting video. I have got to do this!!

[@brendadelamora4045]

Beautiful work. Like your voice also rather than music. Is that a large hello plate or did u make it yourself.

[@brendadelamora4045]

Gelli plate

[@brendadelamora4045]

And where did u get that large plate

[@carinaschembri9802]

thats the best of you all artist, you are all diffrent, mostly you Robyn//CarinaSchembri//Sweden

[@MeEliotSmelliot]

Stunning, but I guess I don’t get the rolodex card thing. Are you creating a mini gallery you can stroll through on your rolodex? Or perhaps you’re creating a rolodex journal? ellen!

[@ThePlaneterra]

As I understand it, we are going to be adding words (phrases?) with a common thread...to make an alternative book.

[@RobynMcClendon]

Hi Ellen, great question as a mixed media book artist, I can make just about anything into an artist book..lol So it occurred to me when I would come across rolodex's at thrift stores, certainly they must have a use and then it hit me to create a book structure. We are gelli painting the front and backs of all the cards and then we will add text. the text can represent anything, a favorite poem, a short story, quotes or strings of thoughts This projects represents and opportunity to upcycle a common product that has fallen out of use and turn it into a inspiring work of art. Thanks for asking :)

[@MeEliotSmelliot]

Thanks Robyn! Such a thorough and thoughtful response!! My mind and eyes have been opened! Carry on!! ellen!

[@cosmiccoyotedog-doreenb9605]

Wow,wow.and wow

[@ChromaStormArts]

Soooo, I just bought 56 tubes of Golden heavy body acrylic.... how do you feel about using it on the Gelli plate ?

[@RobynMcClendon]

The heavy body Golden paints are wonderful and I've used for years in many mixed media projects. They are a little challenging on the Gelli plate because they are so thick. However that said, if you mixed them with an extender to thin them out then they work much better. I like the Golden fluid acrylics for gelli printing best. Thx for joining me today :)

[@veronicadrillsma738]

Hi Robyn, Wonderful, beautiful, inspiring work, as in each one of your videos. I previously mentioned the music, nothing to do with the choice....I'm deaf in one ear and I suffer with tinnitus!! I can only listen to one sound at a time, that was the problem. Sorry to go into personal stuff but it wasn't a complaint..I just want to hear every word you say!! X

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

I’m getting used to your sniffing and have compassion for your situation. No problem. Your vids, instructions, demos, and aesthetic are so awesome I am stuck on you!✌️🇨🇦❤️🙏

[@door.fashionsbyaprilthomas1482]

Idk if you have try it but local honey does pretty good has to be local

[@RobynMcClendon]

Yes thank you I do use our local honey and it is helpful, my allergies are very intermittent here in the southwest. I'm generally fine but we can get a really bad dusts storm and then your suffering for days and then it stops. Just crazy! I appreciate your suggestion and hanging out here with me :)

[@brigitteshantieaglemeare4350]

You really know what you're doing, so gorgeous yet again. Music is difficult because there are so many different likes and dislikes with music. One can never get it right for everyone. I don't mind either way, in fact if you put music that you like, I am happy to hear it because it's part of getting to know you better. I follow a lady in the bookmaking world, and that is quite a fiddly thing to try and follow as a beginner, sewing a book up and stuff. Unfortunately she puts really annoying music in the background and that makes it much more difficult to follow her otherwise excellent instructions. Anyway, that's certainly not the case with you here.

[@kimtriplej4371]

Absolutely yummy!

[@rpcalee]

Robyn & All: I don't know if anyone saw my note on Patreon, but Martha Stewart has apparently discontinued Champagne Gold :-( They now make a color called Champagne that can make a similar color when mixed with their Gold, but it's an extra step. So if you're a fan of Champagne Gold and see some on a store shelf, snatch up all you can!

[@RobynMcClendon]

Wow great tip, I hadn't heard ...lol it seems they are always getting rid of the best colors! Thx Christine :)

[@pcolaart8654]

I think you are looking for Lebenzon Paintbrushes. He is on FB under that name. He still does shows.

Love this! If I don't like the music, I mute it. No biggy

[@RobynMcClendon]

Lol...that’s what I occasionally will do ...especially if I appreciate the content 🙃

[@sonyaeckers8297]

Not having music is conducive to concentrating and learning...

[@333Judy333]

I didn't mind the music, but the volume of your voice on that video was so low that the music drowned you out so I wasn't able to hear you. I love your videos, but I like to hear what you have to say.

[@michelegilmer4679]

Love this technique, beautiful colour combinations. Awesome channel
