[@bomartin]

[@thehighpriestess8431]

Thank you! Edit: I love that you have a camera man / cheerleader / art lover along with you throughout the tutorial

[@LetsMakeArt]

We are kinda partial to him too!

[@evelynhom5750]

The best part is when Sarah accidentally made a mark and turned it into a branch! Thank you for showing us how to turn a mistake into a positive!

[@LetsMakeArt]

Remember "I'm not mad about it!"

[@nancykincaid1880]

The third tree reminds me of a catalpa tree. So glad you did fall trees.

[@SK-mt2pm]

.😂..."No, brain!" 'I don't wanna paint the branches all the same"....😂😉 I love the way you comment whilst you're painting..... many thanks to your great way teaching us! 😊

[@lisadace706]

Thank you for all these tutorials. I really like the addition of the side camera.

[@LetsMakeArt]

Glad you like it!

Hi Sarah! Hi Keenan! Thank you for another opportunity to learn and practice! I’ve just begun to watercolor and have already sold a few pieces... (huh?!) but am definitely learning! Thank you for your humor and art in this dark time. It has gotten me through hours and days in the ICU with my husband.

[@LetsMakeArt]

Hello JayLeigh--thank you so much for joining us on your watercolor journey. We are so happy that you are here with us, and are very thankful that our little videos about painting have provided a respite for you. Please know that are we are sending you and your husband our best wishes and prayers for a quick and full recovery. Please take good care and we'll be thinking about you both! ❤️

[@karendeal4603]

Beautiful as always! You are so talented!

[@Bivsy]

BTW. I love your tutorial.

[@conniedenaples2791]

Hi Sarah and Keenan. How can it be that there’s over two thousand views and only 132 likes...well, I’m #133. This is absolutely beautiful!!!! You are a joy to watch. Thank you for inspiring me to paint. 🤗❤️

[@LetsMakeArt]

You're the best!

[@Janaevaluise]

Thank you so much Sarah and Keenan for these great tutorials! I haven't painted in years because even though I love to paint I am having a hard time starting and deciding on what to paint. These tutorials are perfect for me. I even got my boyfriend to join me two times and he loved it as well. I unfortunately bought a paper book with 80 pages and it turns out the paper is really bad for water colouring (soaks the colour right up), also I only have one brush. Thanks to the oath at the beginning we do never judge ourselves though and just go with it. Thanks a million for these great tutorials! Perfect way to spend my evenings after work or rainy weekends during lockdown.

[@shanolynmartinez8384]

[@charmy3021]

I really love your videos!!!! I really learned a lot from it ❤️

[@LetsMakeArt]

Thank you so much for your kind words! We appreciate you tuning in! :)

[@maryegidio5377]

As you were mentioning the truck, a loud car was going past my house! I was like, wait...are they hearing that?? 😜

[@LetsMakeArt]

We are psychic...not really but that is a cool coincidence.

[@TaresaNephew]

super strange but same here... it was a train in the distance!

[@michelleb4697]

I think your tree on the right could be an Ash Tree. Or possible a very, very old Truffula Tree.😊

[@LetsMakeArt]

Could be

[@nadawanner1058]

You need a thneed!

[@trudithorp841]

So hey LMA crew!! Love this tutorial, totally going to try it and see if i can make something that resembles a tree - now that the pleasantries are done....I have successfully, until today, not commented on the dead plant behind Sara's left elbow 😬 I just can't hold it in any longer - You have a dead plant in your house!!! 😳😳😳 Aww, I feel better 🥴

[@LetsMakeArt]

Thank you so much for pointing that out to us Trudi! Never feel bad if something seems off in the tutorials. Please let us know and we will see what we can do.

[@ItsChristy1]

😂

[@anneslabinski9463]

Sarah, when you are making your marks on the paper with a pencil, could you use a darker pencil, so we can see what you are doing?

[@LetsMakeArt]

We can try to make them darker for the next one! Thank you for the feedback.

[@mirandawingard2920]

Looking chic Sarah :)

[@tonif131]

really difficult for a beginner. Mine is in the trash before I got to #3. I'd like to see how you mix your colors - dabbing my red brush into my yellow "dollop" turned it entirely orange.

[@LetsMakeArt]

Toni thank you for that feedback. We will work on making sure the palette stays in the view of the camera.

[@paulinesmit8364]

OMG sooooo cool 😎

[@Jennieblackpink22]

I love you so much

[@sophroniadee6841]

Could you be thinking of Japanese Maples? They have red leaves.

[@LetsMakeArt]

Yes!

[@gailgiles8511]

I would like to see a donkey and a Scotland highland cow

[@LetsMakeArt]

Oh those would be fun! We will get that added to our request list.

[@elisabruxvoort2190]

I work for an arborist but that tree on the right just looks like a "generic" tree to me!

[@xiaoneewoo1780]

Great tree. But mine are not good.

[@donnaleifels3856]

I was thinking it is like a cottonwood tree.

[@nancyofshiloh7103]

Me too!

[@mikesackmary]

Why does your amethyst show as being blue, but the Dandelion Paints amethyst is a vibrant deep purple? It looks like maybe you're using Berry Blue in the tutorial???

[@LetsMakeArt]

Hi Mike, we can check out bottle of paint but often times the lighting we use as well as just the process of filming/taking photos can distort the colors a bit.

[@mikesackmary]

@@LetsMakeArt Wait! Are you blaming Keenan? LOLOLOL

[@maryd3380]

So... the tree on the right... hmmmm... in Japan? Perhaps, a ginkgo tree?

[@Bivsy]

“See-pee-yah”.

Hi

[@auntielindy]

I'm telling you, I LOVE the art lessons but the banter between you and the unknown, unseen camera-person is SO distracting!
