This has been one of the best video’s here. Have watched many and never understood how to create the lines and circles and how to do the dots . This step by step has been to the point. Thank you SO much 😊

[@keariewashburn4680]

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you ! I enjoy your talent and inspiration with art❤👍🍀

[@evypetre949]

Thanks Lydia for another starter video. I received the dowels and I can’t wait to try them.

[@CreationFromtheTable]

Definitely very helpful on how to properly lay down ur dots!! Just perfect, now I know how to actually use my kit! Thanks so much for your awesome video!

[@JEHomestead]

[@robinfoster3427]

Thank you for your videos. I really enjoy watching them. I basically learned from you.

[@kl4334]

I love all your color combinations! This is brilliant!

[@susanhamilton3212]

I love your design & palette selection, it looks so vibrant against the black. I'm used to dot painting on canvas and was finding it hard to paint on wooden pebbles due to the grain. Thank you so much for showing the reasons you switched your paint on this project due to the wood, it's helped me greatly to find the right texture. Great video, thank you, and Happy Christmas 2020 Lydia :)
