Just when you thought little birds couldn't get any cuter...here are some!!! Love these so much!

That is a happy trio. Diane, I am convinced you are the master of the white gel pen. There is more to writing with it than meets the eye.

I meant to ask you about the paint s you used yesterday on the mushrooms, I was thinking about ordering them and wondered what you like about them . I read they dry a bit shinier and would like that but wanted your take on them. You sure make my day watching and listening to your tutorials. Have a wonderful day dear lady……oh the pink in that pallet is what caught my eye and it’s quite a lot of different colors for the price. Thanks Rita

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Hi Rita, I really like those paints. I find them very liberating! I like the way you can use them either very dilute as transparent watercolour or alternatively with a lesser amount of water they behave like gouache. That means you can use them to paint light over dark, which you can’t do with normal watercolours. I haven’t noticed any shininess, except obviously for the iridescent ones, gold and silver. I like the texture that they provide, because it’s nice to embellish with ink. I’ve got another video coming up in a few days showing than being used again. Personally, I am a big fan of tube watercolours over pans, because that’s really what I’ve done for years and years, but these big pans are a different kettle of fish altogether! I don’t like telling people what to buy, but I have not regretted the €50 I spent on this set. I think it has improved my confidence in watercolour. Hope this helps! Thanks so much for your support on the channel!

This was a totally fun warmup for my day. And thank you for tip about what gel pen - you are right on about how best to use it!! thank you.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

You’re welcome and Maggie! Who would’ve thought it!

[@christineingram55]

This is so pretty 🥰

[@ellym279]

They are so cute. You make it so easy, but it's hard for me. I never know where to put the beak, ets. Thank you for these videos.🥰

[@maryvirginiapringle6415]

Diane showed a help on placing the eye using a transparency. The same could be used for the beak

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Hi Ali, yes Sydney is right - or is it Virginia?! - I do have a video where I experimented using some tracing paper to place the beak and eye. If you want to have a look it’s here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHKWn316g91mg9k
