Thank you! Cheers!

Great tutorial, such a fun halloween painting, I plan to have birds like you suggested and it can be left up longer. As far as a painting idea, I really liked the loose painting of the willow, it had an etherial quality. Thank you, Jon and team for all your time energy, painting lessons, and lessons in the free gazette people can sign up for!!

[@gingercooklive]

Jon and I hope you have fun with this.

[@teentb2075]

Ginger, last night was so much fun watching you paint the little black kitties. Loved the poem, the Creative Spotlight getting to see some of the Facebook member's beautiful painting, and the audio on "Did You Know?" it was really cool.👍Tonight's painting looked like all my furry friends in our back garden got together to stare at the moon. We just heard our roof's getting fixed, and I won tonight's downloadable drawing ... I should of bought a lottery ticket, I'm over the moon, thank you! I hope you Ginger and Jon and all the "stuffy staff" have a wonderful week. HAH 🎨🖌🫶 PS Ireland sounds fantastic!!!

[@gingercooklive]

Congrats on winning the downloadable. And thanks so much for taking the time to write. HAH from Jon and me.

[@monalcreates]

Adorable painting!! Another fantastic tutorial from you Ginger!! And look at all those coming Academy paintings/tutorials!! Wow!! You just keep on delivering!! Love all the different subjects!! There is truly something for everyone there!! Love the poems too!! Wish you and Jon a great coming week!! Stay safe and healthy!! Artsy hugs! ( would love to see a christmas lantern, maybe a little bird by it )

[@gingercooklive]

thank you so much. We have got a fun one tonight too for Halloween with Ghosts in the Northern night sky.

[@PGailStOnge]

Another great Tutorial Love how you made the fur so soft & fluffy. The basket of apples Tutorial is 1 of my favorites as well. I own it & have painted it 3 times in various sizes. I have learned so so so much from that doing it. Funny thing about it is I recently dug out my camera gear out & was thinking of trying to recreate the idea as a companion piece using pears instead.The local farmers market is overloaded with freshly picked pears & maybe apples & grapes... Still in the planning stages...I'm a bit rusty since My camera stuff has been in storage for months. Thank you for all you do.😊

[@gingercooklive]

That is so good to hear. We really appreciate your taking the time to comment too.

[@raylawrence4927]

Wasn’t able to watch the live show but am enjoying the rerun while cruising back from Hawaii. Love the painting .

[@gingercooklive]

Jon and I hope you have fun with this.

[@stephiejane]

Oh Ginger! Those cats! Paintings don't get much cuter than this. I loved it when you made them so soft looking with the grainer brush. This was such a pleasant lesson. I enjoyed every moment of it. (I do love cats... other animals too) It was so much fun watching this come together. This is such a great fall painting. I think that I would keep this one up in my home all year long. Purr-fection! Thank you both for all that you do. You and Jon are the best.

[@gingercooklive]

Awesome and thanks so much for taking your night to moderate too.

[@joannsharich9100]

I loved this painting. I didn't get a chance to read Gazette tonight but I always save them and put a star by them in my email. Anytime I need something on Amazon I can just push the button on Gazette and it takes me right there.

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks so much, your support and kind comments mean a lot. Art hugs from Jon and me.

[@debbiewaddington8782]

i forgot to say that i love and use the read along function in the gazette. thank you

[@gingercooklive]

Oh awesome Jon will be so pleased to hear that. Oh and we just redid the website after two years of working on a new one.

[@brendabroschard5781]

Hi Ginger, do you know when your bite size art monster painting will be released? He is sooooo adorable. Ginger, thank you for all you and Jon do. You're an amazing artist.

[@gingercooklive]

Later in November I think. I love him too and want to put him on a T shirt. Happy Art Hugs (HAH) from Jon and me.

[@brendabroschard5781]

Ginger, Just love this painting. What type of brush did you use for creating the cats fur?

[@gingercooklive]

Princeton Grainer

[@lyndapower9408]

Ginger - As usual you have outdone yourself ! I love Black Cats as subjects to paint, since I have a few very Lovable Ones. - A Few Stray Comments here : I DO think that most artists enjoy painting Halloween or Autumn themed Art Work at this time of year. (Maybe you could demonstarte another one this season too? ). - I'm not sure if you saw my question in the "chat", but I would like to know what Brand of Brushes you would recommend as "fur brushes" - for painting fur? ( I stay away from brushes made with animal fur.). - Thanks again for a lovely and inspiring presentation. - (And Thank You for your Comments of Concern for those of us in the hurricane path in Florida). - Lynda

[@gingercooklive]

Priceton makes grainers. they are in our store. Our smudie brushes are made from goat fur. They shave them.

[@lyndapower9408]

Sounds Good.
