[@Ruth-e2t]

I have to say that watching you work always inspires me but on top of that just hearing your voice makes me smile and brightens my day. I'm sure you have off days or even bad days but that never comes through when you are working. Thank you for sharing your inspirations. Your work is always amazing.

@@Ruth-e2t Ruth… that was the sweetest thing to say. Thank you ♥️ I appreciate that so much. I think this art just brings out the best in me sometimes 🤗

I’m watching for the third time!! I have a rock garden on the side of our house. I’ve been taking rocks from it for years now. I want to make room for plants even if I put them in pots. All the rocks are big so it’s taking me awhile, but hey I always have real rocks!! So I’m going to paint one with your design. Hubs is gone for the day, so I have plenty of time to paint. Thanks for this one and every single one you’ve done!!

@@joycemccoy8372 Joyce you are too kind! I can’t wait to see what you come up with… with your unlimited stash out there 😂

Happy Sunday! I love watching you create first thing in the morning

[@JaDeLRocks]

Yay! Thank you! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m actually curled up on the couch watching now. I’ve got a sick kiddo so it’s nice to have this time. I’m so glad you’re here to comment. It’s fun to know there’s others doing the same as me right now and connect from so far away. I love it! Happy Sunday Valerie ♥️♥️♥️♥️

You’re welcome 😊 thank you too ♥️♥️♥️

[@paulinechoate5974]

Good morning! For not having a plan, this is beautiful...just "going with the flow" can produce amazing outcomes. The black top dots were a surprise and totally made it pop! Wishing you a great day!

[@JaDeLRocks]

@@paulinechoate5974 Thank you ♥️ I hope your Sunday is awesome… I’m still nursing my first cup of coffee ☕️😂 I just love doing these stones like this. It’s just so freeing and forgiving. I always start a mandala with an attitude of “this is the one,” “no rush, no cutting corners, perfect placement, etc.”. LOL…. I’ve yet to come thru on that 😂😂😂 So sometimes it’s nice to just say Yo..let’s just paint ♥️. This only took like 2 hours to paint. It’s just a bundle of fun.

[@paulinechoate5974]

@@JaDeLRocks I don't know about for you but my mandala creating I consider 'Soul Food' ..like the body, I feed my Soul daily. lol You exude joy in your creations. I'm on cup o' jo #3...time to hit the garden! lol

[@JaDeLRocks]

@@paulinechoate5974 oh go girl. My garden went nuts with butternut squash and cherry tomatoes this year. Like I’ve got food security all winter for me and my neighbors 😂😂😂. My sage, basil, parsley, and cilantro were good too. My pumpkins felt the punch of the stink bugs and my cucumbers were not cucumbers at all 😂 But I just got 6 red bell peppers from a volunteer plant. I’m already looking forward to next year. I bet your gardens are wildly amazing by now. I haven’t seen since the beginning. Good luck.. 🤞🏻 it’s raining here so I’m inside base painting rocks and prepping food!

[@paulinechoate5974]

@@JaDeLRocks stink bugs are horrid here! I'm fighting them daily on my 🖥️ cucumbers. Here in FL I can grow most things year long...I've gotta mini corn ears currently. :-D Happy gardening!

[@JaDeLRocks]

@@paulinechoate5974 they’re just awful here too… and my dumb heart won’t let me do much about it 😂😂😂 I’m working on prevention… which is almost always gonna be a fail. I need your weather… and corn! Lol

I loved loved loved this one. I wish there was a love button , I just wanted to keep pushing the like button over and over. I really enjoyed the throwback to a good old fashion rock and no planning. Thats how I roll and it made me so happy. But what do you expect, Jadel you are the Sunday morning Happy Maker ❤❤❤❤❤

[@JaDeLRocks]

Oooooooh I love that!!! Sunday morning happy maker 🤗🤗🤗🤗 I’m so glad you liked it. Back when I was so worried about the KZbin numbers I quit making videos on real rocks because they always bomb number wise. Now that I completely don’t care I thought whoa! I can paint a rock!!! Because I love them 🥰🥰🥰

[@frangoodrich8243]

Good Sunday evening, Ja Del. I missed the morning debut, had some things to get done early. This looks like pure fun, just playful! Hope your kiddo is better.

[@JaDeLRocks]

Thank you ♥️ She’s still sick with minor fever. I’m making her rest. Cough meds, ibuprofen, vitamin c and echinacea tea, steamy baths, and Vicks. LOL.. she hates me 😂😂😂😂 Here’s hoping tomorrow she’s better. School is out tomorrow so that’s a bonus. It’s a teacher in service day. I’m just on my way to bed… Good night... 🥰

[@tanabennett831]

What a fun idea… Love it as always JaDel…

[@JaDeLRocks]

Thank you! 😊

[@qwnbee420]

I’m currently working on a piece inspired by your art. While I’m working on a current project, I usually have a few in the queue that I’m thinking about. One is a jewelry box and I’ve been thinking that I wanna do something freeform and here you are with this magnificent rock. Awesome job once again.🙌👏😍 I’m so glad you’re liking the swirly tool. I like the way it fits into snug spots.

[@JaDeLRocks]

I’m loving the size oh so much and I’m so thankful. I’m not loving the grip though. I thought at first I’d just get use to it but I’m still holding it too tight and the edge is hurting my fingers. Sooooo… that gave me an idea. You’ll see soon. I’m infatuated with this new smaller point though.. perfect gift to me and my art.

[@JaDeLRocks]

@@qwnbee420 I forgot to say thankyou for the kindness. I love doing these collages. There’s just so much freedom if you give it to yourself.

[@cynthiaschwind9501]

Thank you! 😊

Simply beautiful! I almost have all the supplies to start. Do you happen to have a video oyu would recommend for a newbie? And I only saw one tiny dot that was just about perfect. All the rest were perfect to me. Id be soo happy with this rock!

[@JaDeLRocks]

I have 2 beginners videos I made a while back. However… I think the most useful video I’ve made yet is my swoosh video. There’s so much info in it.
