Oooh so pretty!! And I know you may not feel the same but I think us subscribers are excited that you have another accordion sketchbook...😉

[@snowpirate2652]

I second this post. More accordion sketchbooks make the world a happier place :D

[@Bingus-mp9vu]

I third this post :3 More accordion sketchbook: More long drawings and EVEN MORE ART TO BUYYYYYY

[@snowpirate2652]

too true @@Bingus-mp9vu

Everything about these watercolors reminds me so much of a place I found a few years ago and called Blue Pine Arts. One of the owners is also named Trupti, and she and a team of women craft watercolors by hand with pure pigments and craft sketchbooks using beautiful fabrics. It's nice to know there are similar places out there that I can purchase great quality, handmade colors from; Blue Pine's stuff is amazing but it always sells out super fast!

Can you please make a tutorial on how to do line art with brush pen like you do cause I really want to do line art with brush pen but I always messed up so it’ll be helpful if you can give some tips btw the final drawing turned out so good 😊

[@snowpirate2652]

One tip that could help you with that would be practicing confident lines while just barely touching the brush to the paper. This isn't the only style for brush pen line work, but it's going to really help you with becoming more consistent in line width as you learn all the ways to use it. I personally would also love watching Kattvalk explain how she does her line work because it is quite beautiful.

Those purples in the custom are so gorgeous. Ah 🤩🤩🤩

[@HART-sk3bz]

I absolutely love this piece! Seeing it made colored is really cool

[@N_0968]

The painting came out gorgeous. I love watching you create, it makes me feel so cozy. 💖

[@cathyb7774]

I feel like it's not recycling but recreating and looking how an older idea feels now. I love how you gave this prompt his colorful feel while testing new colors.

[@zombiekind]

You always create such lovely autumn pieces. If you ever plan selling this as print in your shop, I'd buy it instantly. 🥰

[@PotchouDoodle]

Those watercolors looks so pretty. I was smiling all along your painting process, I love this illustration, that such a cute idea ❤

[@KatesColouringHaven]

Absolutely gorgeous artwork my lovely and the watercolour paints have stunning colours. Thank you for a wonderful video xxx😊❤

[@aartadventure]

I love this piece. It could be made into such a cool acrylic charm (especially if it was a full oval shape maybe?) or print

[@PristinePanda]

very cute!! here in the US or at least where i live each city tends to pick a weekend for when the kids will trick or treat regardless if halloween falls on that weekend or not. when i was a kid it was normally on actual halloween but that meant being out late during school nights, so i can see why they changed it in recent years.

[@fuzzydragons]

LOVE that Cobalt Blue Green 🥰great piece of art, the colours look great😀

[@MovieTrollop]

Those paints look beautiful.

[@hanne_draws]

Ahh! The art turned out so pretty! It makes me want to get back into watercolor myself

[@emilyslife5155]

the colors are heavenly!

[@kitsunethefeytouched]

That is a beautiful piece. I hope we'll get to see it on your page to buy copies of one day.

[@kvwart]

Wow these watercolors are so beautiful! Also I love the illustration you did and the idea is so cute with making a jack o lantern man! It’s perfect!

[@kvwart]

That first swatch of orange on your final piece made my jaw drop! Such a beautiful color!

[@liesbethartlife]

Beautiful paints and beautiful art work !

[@mirandaperkins3244]

That was so fun to watch! I wish I was better at water colors those paints are so pretty

[@Numberblock17]

These are stunning 😮

[@maryl.5984]

First?? Oh man, I'm so enchanted by handmade watercolors. The process looks so cool and my favorites are always the sparkly ones! Thanks for the review >w

[@adrianarraquel]

these watercolors are beautiful! love the custom palette 💖 and the color Juniper... I'm biased tho, because that's the name of one of my kitties! XD

[@safaiaryu12]

This painting is lovely, and those paints are gorgeous!! It's so cool to see you work with other small businesses!!

[@Alpha13Wolf]

Man that Golden green is absolutely beautiful and intense.

[@JasmineZellmer]

This is beautiful! The pumpkin leaves are definitely my favorite!

[@ClauClauditza]

Gorgeous 💜

[@ChantelleArts]

what an absolute stunning piece ❤❤❤

[@lucymiau5700]

The Picture and the Colors look great.

[@Marianaillustration]

Very cute artwork!

[@slateportraichu5416]

I love watercolours=3 These paints are so cute! The way everything is wrapped makes me so excited=3 What a wonderful autumn illustration! Coloured it looks even more lively=)

[@AlexaFaie]

Have you considered having some of your linework printed onto watercolour paper to sell? I've got a small set of watercolours but lack the skills to draw something to then colour with paint so they're just sitting there not getting used. Your artwork is always so lovely that I would love a proper watercolour paper colouring book from you. Oh and saw your recent shop update with the custom pet portraits. The ones you did as examples of your cats are just wonderful! If you didn't mind others having art of your pets I'd ask if you'd make them available as prints (or stickers for the round ones). I don't have a pet of my own to commission you yet, but will have to keep it in mind for when I eventually get a cat of my own.

[@FroggyRaeCreations]

Those watercolors look amazing. Love the art piece. Thanks for sharing!

[@PurpleWillowArts]

This is beautiful! I wish you had it available as a printable document to paint. ❤

[@ewaweronika3495]

I love the bunny and the entire piece is beautiful! Awesome autumn vibe 🍁 Also, recycling older pieces is a great idea! I may have to give it a try 😊

[@awhitney3063]

What beautiful colors! I had a bit of doubt based on the outside swatches on the packaging, but they came together beautifully well. It's also cool to see artists supporting small business like this ~ I've been wanting to try some handmade watercolors, I'll definitely put these on my christmas list.

[@PiaLihme]

I love it - and such an amazing idea to 're-use' the old Inktober piece !!!

[@CreativaArtly]

The painting is absolutely adorable btw.

[@lyssasletters3232]

Pretty artwork❤

[@tasticola]

Looks absolutely beautiful. x Nell

[@PinkWytchBytch]

Coral is one of those colors not a lot of sellers make, I love this shade of pink!

[@E4Alabbasy]

The paint looks so lovely! I would love to get handmade paints in the future 🥰 and your painting turned so pretty, I espacially enjoyed when you painted the background 💖

[@juliangelus]

Gorgeous art, those watercolours are amazing

[@junbug1029]

We celebrate Halloween on October 31st, All Hallows Eve.

[@snowpirate2652]

The art turned out looking really nice with the texture of the paint you used, so I may look into this watercolor shop because I've been wanting to give watercolors another try. Great video, please keep posting :)

[@jennglow4647]

Very cool 😀

[@RaionNoMachi]

Love the idea of a “mushroom forest” palette. They know their audience lol

[@samboe2009]

@nerdecrafter have you seen her work before she’s amazing

[@miralehkoi8126]

challenge yourself sometimes and draw upside down! as if you were just turning the paper upside down 🤗 and it would be funny to see how different and difficult it is! 🙈

[@La_Na_10]

[@supme7558]

I only use tubes not pans

[@naly202]

You should really make some short videos. They'll introduce more people to your wonderful channel. You don't even have to make new videos, just put short clips from your old ones.

[@AdventureBunnys]

One thing ! ☝️ Bunnys don't have pawpads

[@CreatingwithWinglessAngel]

I used to celebrate all hollows eve but not much anymore. It has been too commercialized for me.

[@TheQueenOfStupidity]

magnets!
