I love your comments on drawing the sheep. Good to keep in mind what you said to enjoy the experience, happy moment :) Just to go for it.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Patty, my approach has taken a massive shift and I feel so much better, I get so much more done !!! I know it won't appeal to everyone but it is lovely to hear from a like-minded subscriber...thank you🥰

[@peggywilson6492]

Thank you so much for the inspiration and I wish you a blessed Christmas 🎄

[@ahmetuzuner5543]

Thank you, Dear Gaynor.....your hair and sweater ( red ) are very beautiful... 🙃😉👏Also I have been watching your video for long time and really, it is very good and beneficial. After that you showed your country's nature ( Sheep, Deer ) and your dog. They are sweet........I finish my words, I wish everyone A Merry Christmas / New year.....By....Stay Healthy....🦌🦌🦌🦌

[@janinafisher101]

When you draw your sheep in this video I was so impressed at how expressive they looked - and here you were talking about not drawing "perfect sheep" (but not sweating over it). I thought they we re perfectly lovely! And I love the sweet fairy lights that Craig hung for you. Bless you, Craig! They really were so pretty and festive for this Christmas video. I hope you're taking good care of Gaynor as she heals from her surgery. From one fan in Canada

Every day since I discovered your channel I have to make myself do the chores before I watch one of your videos. They are addictive, just lovely.

[@gaynorpattle]

😍THANK YOU

[@JaneyH8765]

Craig’s definitely a keeper! He must have so many brownie points! 😀 I’m watching this in June but have had you sitting on my shoulder whilst on holiday in Normandy. ‘JUST GO FOR IT’. I’m getting there slowly but surely! I recently discovered Cass Art in Bristol. OMG I need to go back soon! So love your videos. They are full of inspiration. Thank you so much ❤ BTW - thumbs up from me for the speedy sheep drawing!

[@gaynorpattle]

I need to revisit the sheep !! Hope you had a fantastic holiday and are full of creative inspiration XX

[@JaneyH8765]

@@gaynorpattle We had a great week in Normandy visiting DDay beaches, museums etc. Well worth the visit. I didn’t fill a sketchbook but I did manage a bit of sketching in the evenings and a morning on the beach amongst all the scallop shells. I’ve never seen so many shells! Our Airbnb was a little gem overlooking the harbour. Heavenly!

[@karinvasquez3956]

Of course Gaynor I will stay with you enjoying not only your ideas and helpful comments but also for your contagious good mood...merry and joyful Chrismas with your family...

[@triciabennetts6578]

Thankyou Gaynor for introducing me to Cheryl Taves and her 30 day sketch book challenge - I’m a fellow procrastinator 😳 and so find structure a really useful tool to help me actually put pen/brush to paper! I just have to make the decision to commit now - without too much procrastination!😮😉 Also very much looking forward to watching you take work from your sketchbook to creating a painting/collage! Many thanks for you taking the time to share your creative process and thereby passing on some much needed inspiration and encouragement 🙂

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Tricia, Cheryl Taves has a way with words ! I enjoy her approach to 'mindset' and look forward to her newsletters. I hope you find the course as inspiring as I did .🥰

[@janinafisher101]

Another good idea is to do the challenge with a buddy!

[@anitajones7804]

Hi Gaynor. Whenever I get to Glasgow I always spend hours in Cass Art, a great shop! It is nice to see you out and about - love your sheep. Thank you for your wonderful, inspirational videos. Have a wonderful festive season.

[@gaynorpattle]

Thank you Margaret 🥰

[@SimoneWhippArtist]

Hi Gaynor! I am one of your regular commentators but changed my profile pic and KZbin name! I love your sheep speed drawing and feel encouraged to do warm up speed drawing next year. I want to come and live in your cosy cabin - such an inspiring place! Your Canson book is wonderful to look back on as a visual diary and see how far you have come. Wishing you a very Happy Christmas. 😊🎄

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Simone, I found you online and wish you every success with your journey 🥰

[@csamuels9670]

Dear Gaynor. I'm so pleased I chanced upon your videos, and I am delighted each time you post a new one. Your enthusiasm and joy at your creative process ignites in me a wish to be more creative myself. And your studio looks really gorgeous, and reflects your bubbly personality with the lights, the colours and your art. I hope you have a very happy festive season, and am looking forward to more creativity in 2023. Thank you for the joy you bring me each week in this way. Carolann.

[@gaynorpattle]

Such kind words, thank you 🥰 Put your creativity into action - one small step everyday and you will be amazed at what can happen !!

[@fionawhitfield925]

Another lovely and influential video. I ALWAYS feel inspired after watching your videos. I just love the fact that you just ‘do’ things, whatever the outcome. A good lesson to learn. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and yours. Keep up the good work. I would certainly miss it now, as I look forward to seeing your endeavours every week. Thank you!

Your pallet is inspiring. I sorted thru my stuff and realized some of the colors are to blame for sameness and blah. Those colors are now all stowed at the back of the shelf

[@gaynorpattle]

Hi Christine, it is so easy to stay with the same colour palette, so have fun mixing up some new colours. Happy Holidays 🥰

[@betinabjerre5428]

Just found you and love your inspiration 🤩 Can you tell what kind of book your Big sketch book is ? Looove it 😍

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Betina and welcome, lovely to hear from new viewers. I have a selection of A4 Hard Back sketchbooks, I look for acid free paper that will take mixed media. Seawhite is a good brand. Thank you for a lovely comment 🥰

Thanks so much for sharing your videos Gaynor. I’m going to invest in a Lamy ink pen. Is yours a fine or medium nib ? X
