[@Cynthia6031]

I love listening to you talk while you paint. You have a very soothing voice.

[@marymasten1596]

Awesome awesome so awesome I'd rather watch you then practice!!

[@MoonSpinners]

This is exactly what I look for in an art video. Minimal talking, no distracting background music, and inspirational art work. I could feel the tension leave my body after only a couple of minutes in. You are a joy to watch. Thank you. 👍🇬🇧

[@colleendailey5556]

I just love her voice and I missed it a bit!

[@suzymoon8414]

She makes it look effortless...

[@pilotrtc]

I whole-hardheartedly agree! I always mute music-only videos. I also turn on closed captioning (cc) at the same time to catch when there may be talking in the video.

[@MoonSpinners]

@@pilotrtc ..that’s what I do! I have to say though, that if I have to hear anyone speak it would be this lady because her voice is so calming and soft, but I really just enjoy the silence 😊

[@greeneyedmimibostian3013]

Agree

[@tabortooth11]

I just LOVE how you choose such pleasing-to-the-eye palette colors, CeeCee!!! Beautiful artwork here and inspiration!!

[@creationsceecee]

Thank you so much, Sylvia! i know you'e a big fan of blue foliage 😉 . wishing you a wonderful and peaceful day 😊

[@stephaniegoodenough3341]

A joy to watch, as always. I don't care if you film with a fancy camera or you phone, your painting always brings me joy and your voice is so soothing. Thank you for sharing!

[@angelcalico8663]

Stephanie, I so agree!!

[@creationsceecee]

Thank you so much, Sylvia. i know you're a big fan of blue foliage 😉

[@virginiabusch139]

Good morning. I love your work. So calming along with your voice. I just starting leaning watercolor at 70! I did the whimsy village. So fun. I outlined in ink. Added doodles and snow! Thank you for your inspiration.

[@creationsceecee]

you are 70 years young and learning a wonderful thing. how wonderful! wishing you many hours of joyful creativity and discoveries! 😊 🎨

[@virginiabusch139]

Thank you so much for your encouragement. If you see this,could you please advise the glass board you use? I can't tell if it is smooth or tempered. Thanks.

[@grethe1956]

I used to watch Bob Ross when I couldn’t sleep because his voice is so soothing, but CC is now my favourite thing to watch in the wee small hours 😂

[@virginiabusch139]

I love CC too. That’s a great idea to help with sleep.

[@sandrift]

Love this combination of paint and pencil! I truly appreciate all that you share, thank you. Your work has been very inspiring to me because it makes painting approachable, even if you make it look easier than I find it to be. 🎨

[@sandrajcarl6599]

Ceecee, if you didn’t exist already, you would have to be invented. What a pleasure it is to watch your videos , you are a great, inspirational tutor!

[@zoekane4012]

Love that you allowed the outside sounds in, the traffic sounds make a great audio background. And also the sound of pencil and brush strokes as you created. This was so soothing; thank you for sharing this wonderful video!

[@mumstheword8851]

I loved watching you do this, CeeCee! So peaceful....no music..... And the result is... CeeCee!! 👏👏👏 Beautiful, wonderful!

[@janeb9699]

Loved this simplistic video, especially the side angle view as I got to see how you hold the paintbrush and make certain brush strokes for different shapes. Thank you! You are inspiring!

[@Nancy-pf6ft]

Wonderful. Liked this minimal set up & filming; I hope it was less intense (filming, editing, voiceovering :) and simpler for you too!!) I finished my coffee and I’m heading out to my own studio to have a day of painting & drawing.

[@martehepburnart]

I always look forward to your videos. Thank you so much!

[@ronnies462]

Beautiful. I'd love to know how you get such a sharp point on your pencils

[@susanmary4752]

I absolutely love the close ups of the coloured pencil work! So intriguing to see how it plays out. Beautifully done!

[@MariaFrancaSerrau]

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for this inspiring and zen-like video. Even the silence is meaningful in your work♥️

[@gaillevine3188]

I have enjoyed it very much... I think you might be feeling better, be careful, do not overextend yourself!!! Much love❣️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@katiewilliams6591]

Thank you CeeCee, as ever beautiful and full of inspirations for those of us learning watercolour.. you make it look easy. Lovely to hear your soft mellifluous voice. Stay safe and well, rest up 😊

[@Diana-ko5bo]

What kind of pencil sharpener do you use to get such a nice point?

[@creationsceecee]

i use the UNI KH-20 pencil sharpener (formerly called Mitsubishi KH-20) amzn.to/3iIk2PH

[@janetketo8066]

Your videos, voice, color palette are extremely calming! I always feel relaxed and come away with inspiration to try something similar myself. Thank you!❤️

[@anuradha.roy12]

Amazing.... so beautiful ma'am 😍😍😍

[@fernandasaraga]

The magic is on the details that you add through dots, shading, gold accents! I love your work and am always inspired by it!!

[@creationsceecee]

Thank you so much 😀

[@fernandasaraga]

@@creationsceecee you inspired me to start my only little channel where I often doodle in gold pen as well along with transparent watercolor flowers. Would love for you to look if you have time. I put links to artists that inspired me in the about page and you are there!

[@elsad5680]

Enjoyed learning how to shade with color pencils on watercolor. I must not over do it. Always love the gold.

[@theresasuttle711]

You so inspire me!!! Ok, I’ve written and deleted enough, just let me repeat myself: You SO INSPIRE me. Thank you for sharing. Thank you so much!

[@cyndiguillory320]

Absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing, right down to the sound of the pencils on the paper. You inspire me!

[@gaila.c.602]

Nice! I like that you didn't add music over the silent parts. TFS!

[@martilyle]

I love your work. I am just starting in watercolor and colored pencils and find I like using them together. What pencil sharpener do you use to get such a long point on your pencils? I look forward to future videos.

[@creationsceecee]

That's absolutely gorgeous. The colours and the object are all together and it's not overloaded. I do think it's marvelous. Thanks for sharing. Stay healthy. Bye bye

[@marybethkrepinevich9483]

Ditto previous comment on brevity

[@barbaralassiter259]

I love the quiet loveliness of this! You could almost hear the brush hitting the paper and the scratching of the pencils! I have Gansai Tambi paint, watercolor paper and colored pencils and have no excuse for not doing my version of this! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@marilynnew2189]

I'm so glad I found you a few months ago and am happy to know you are taking care of yourself.

[@janetpolt3132]

Love the colors you chose & your composition. Missed your calming voice while instructing us. Beautiful painting!

[@thereselimone1254]

This is so relaxing and lovely… perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Thank you.

I enjoyed watching. I'm just starting into watercolour. I'm missing home, from one kanuk to another. 🍁🍀😊 Joanne Vervoordeldonk.

[@joanfreeman5979]

I just wanted to let you know ....... I love watching and learning from your video’s. I love your comforting voice and that you speak with such love and joy. That is pleasing to me..

[@diandier77]

I can't tell you how much you mean to me.

[@-MEL16-A.O.C]

Déjà le titre est en français...et le reste ...incroyable !!!! Chaque fois je trouve vos couleurs superbes et ces touches d'or finales sont toujours le détail qui change tout. J'adore vraiment ce que vous faites. Merci de nous faire profiter de votre talent. Je vous embrasse fort.

[@clarissafray2913]

Your channel could get 1 biilliiooonnnnn subscribers and that wouldn't be enough...love you so muchhhh❤❤❤

[@sagepreaumx9903]

Unlike people think, plants live in communities. They are not happy being in isolation. So even indoor plants should be placed in groups.

[@creationsceecee]

that is good to know, Sage. plants are teaching us the importance of socializing in harmony. love that. wishing you a beautiful day! 😊

[@hygeiahealing6609]

Very gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. Hope you are finding time to replenish and take good care of you. All the best!

[@c8Lorraine1]

Thank you for your idea to use pencils for the detail work in your painting. Such a simple solution for my paintings. Stay safe and healthy.

[@dianemorin1466]

Superbe comme toujours! Merci

[@catherinedidomenico814]

Ceecee, this is absolutely beautiful. As always, I was mesmerized by this video. Watching you paint continues to inspire me to work harder at this craft. Your touch looks so light and gentle -- you make it look effortless! -- and I strive for that day to come in my own work. (Lol, truth be told, I'll be happy to achieve something remotely near your capability!) Thank you, thank you!

[@suewilkinson910]

So beautiful to watch you do that. Thank you.

[@lindawheeler2962]

The addition of pencils is very interesting. I can hardly wait to try it. Thank you.

[@lauriedunn6198]

Thank you for sharing your art with us! Perfect for a Quiet Sunday afternoon

[@lindadean3559]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful art. It always inspires me to go to my own much neglected painting table and try your techniques. I love how your videos are so calming to my mind.

[@marybethschuiteman484]

So happy to see a video from you again! Missed you. Love your calming palette and techniques.

[@nanasue4481]

Such a relaxing video to watch and your artwork is just beautiful too. Thank you cee-cee. 🙏🙏🙏🤗

[@DieimWindsteht]

I love your art, it makes me happy all time ✨😍🤩✨

[@moonspiritartbycindyhill1084]

So delicate

[@CHonRoad]

So beautiful ❤️

[@avirtualcanvas7584]

Such a lovely final painting, and so nice to see you using the Gansai Tambi paints too, I love these paints, and the Derewent drawing pencils are the perfect way to further add texture and depth to the painting, I think those pencils are pefect to use over watercolour. And the signature gold added at the end just elevated the painting to give it that magical look,the colours used just blues and greens and ochres worked so well together as well. You show that the Gansai paints can be used to create subtle delicate pieces,these pains are really versatile more than people realise,so nice to see them being used to creats something magical like this.(matt)

[@faribahh5924]

Hi. Wonderful!!!!! What kid of sharpener do you use? Pencils are excellent

[@creationsceecee]

thanks! • Pencil sharpener: UNI KH-20 pencil sharpener (formerly called Mitsubishi KH-20) amzn.to/3iIk2PH

Love the unique way of pencils and watercolours. Makes me very interested in trying this. Thank you🦋

[@candacekerr4139]

When I grow up I want to be an artist just like You! LOL...I’m 74. But, I could give it a try!

😆 it is never too late to create, Candace. wishing you a beautiful and creative day! 🎨

thanks and big hugs to you back, lovely Mona 😘

[@ewwwobbie]

This is absolutely beautiful! I loved every moment of you creating it!

[@lizdouglas1952]

You are my inspiration. I discovered you first, and I'm never disappointed. You are sweet, you share your techniques, and your color choices are soft, beautiful, joyful, and I thank you for listing your outstanding products. With everything happening today, I'm so happy to have come across your latest painting. Perhaps, I'll give it a go. Blessings 🙌 😘💖💙💛🌱🎨

[@betsinewbury4670]

Aren't those Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors glorious?! Thank you for the beautiful painting.

[@shartzstein]

The way you recreated those plants is so wonderful. Those two are usual in my country, the blue one is popularly called albahaca or albaca (basil) and the round one is called taco de reina (queen's heel) and it has a beautiful yellow or orange simple rounded flower. I couldn't understand the name you mentioned. Any way,..... I love the way that color pencils give deepness (is it well said?) and third dimension I've already told you that you are an inspiration for me to keep practicing even though my results are far from good. Waiting for your next video. Thank you so much!

[@patriciabrett3820]

Was looking forward to this! Slowing down has served you well and I’m sure I speak for many of us in that we treasure the peace, joy, sanity and inspiration you bring via your videos every time.... spacing them out has made them all the better to savor....thank you

[@hilarymonton9285]

I so enjoyed watching this calm vlog. Have been quite unwell & anxious & I feel better already. Thank you lovely lady. Stay safe & well. 💖
