No one in this world inspires me to try new things as you do, my friend. So happy I found you!

[@MyriamsNature]

Oh my gosh... thank you so so much for that Pam!! That is beyond awesome to hear! Happy inking!! 😊💕

[@lumisoluna]

Omg I love listening to you making yourself giggle. Loved this tutorial thoroughly. Thank you 😊🌈🦄

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank you, thank you ! I’m just delighted that you enjoyed this. 😊😘💕

[@gaylanclick4518]

Myriam - this is an adorably FUNtastic tutorial. I MUST say, your enthusiasm, along with added giggles, just make me want more! Thank you and I look forward to many more!

[@tinaprocaccini4351]

Hi Myriam, Your painting is beautiful and the bubbles are needed for the fish to breathe, lol. Bubbles always look nice for a under the water painting. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us.

[@jlz5594]

Love your teaching style so much, it makes me smile everytime and I always learn even a little something. The underwater scene is exquisite: I especially enjoy the rocks and pebbles as well as the bubbles coming out from the fish mouth. Thank you, Myriam for this clear and lovely tutorial.

[@cherylwalrath-duran2996]

Awww, thank you Myriam for your joy and for this adorable doodle! Big hugs ~Cheryl

[@Vk-mm4lf]

I watch you often, I am subscribed but I have never had the courage to try. This is so very adorable. But you must know you make it look easier than it is. So glad to have found your channel. L

[@cheryl7476]

I’m always amazed how worth it it is to stipple. The rocks looks so cool, Myriam. Love the scene you doodled.

[@pamelarocco2713]

Myriam, I so thoroughly enjoy your videos! Your art is wonderful & you are just downright soothing to listen to. I wish you would put videos out more often for us to enjoy😊. Keep up the great job you are doing & I liked the bubbles!

[@EnchantedHuesPress]

Hi. I'm a new viewer, and I have to tell you I have been having some bad days lately but watching your videos have lifted my spirits. You are so enjoyable to watch. I'm brand new to Alcohol inks but you just make it look so easy. Thanks for all you do for us viewers!

[@lindafrier26]

You know I like water scenes 🤩

[@MyriamsNature]

Ah yes... I do 😘💕!!

[@lindafrier26]

Myriam's Nature I have a lot of paintings I want to do but I’ve been busy sewing masks 😷.

[@assistanttotheregionalmana349]

Your personality is SO much fun!!

[@lechatbotte.]

Your laugh is so infectious, I never tire of listening. Yep that’s me. Guilty as charged my budget shouldn’t either. Thank you about the difference in the pens. Microns don’t work well over some things like paint or other things when you’re doing multimedia. I love this just too much fun.

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank you so much for that! 😊😘💕 I think we can probably rationalize art supplies just a little bit these days... because honestly making art is vital to keeping me sane 😅😂!

[@susansouthern6704]

Your bubbly personality and sense of fun was just what I needed today..another great video..sending hugs across the river

[@kerriebaziw5037]

Hi Myriam...thank you so much for your wonderful personality

[@MyriamsNature]

What a nice thing to say... thank YOU for that Kerrie! 😊💕

[@cheekyllamacreations]

Absolutely brilliant and so much fun listening to your joyful commentary!👌🏻💜

[@kathylee2740]

I love the bubbles. They match your personality! Well, actually, I love the whole thing :-) Thanks for all the tips and tricks. Lots of new stuff for me to explore here.

[@seemakazmi965]

Love the textures and the techniques! The Posca bubbles look great!

[@joyceandrews4196]

I am loving your videos. Your joy and fun at painting is contagious. It brings such lightness to my day as I watch your creativity. Your knowledge of so much is really amazing and informative. Keep them coming.

[@photofare]

I would love to see more of these types of inkings :-)

[@tharshope8203]

EXACTLY what I needed right now.. thank YOU

[@MyriamsNature]

That’s awesome to hear... thank you so much 😊💕 !

[@janwarren3665]

Oh My Gosh! You are so talented!!! Beautiful! I loved watching this! Thank You! Wish I could draw like this! Take Care and many Blessings!

[@judyhosch672]

I am so glad that I found you ! Truly inspiring

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank you so much Judy!

[@carmennunez715]

It was nice to start my day with a laugh, I thank you for that. Your video is not only informative and instructive but it is such a joy to watch. You use pebbles to cover your mistakes I would need a boulder to cover mine but I will keep trying to improve. I loved your painting.

[@barbararosen1641]

Whimsy is fun. And the back of the paper works great for shading. Thank you 😊

[@NinaRogoff]

Myriam, your joyful approach (and frequent chuckles) are so wonderful! Even if I wasn't going to paint, I just enjoy watching and listening. I really appreciate the explanations you give for why you're using a particular brand or medium to get the effect you want. What a great idea to paint on the back of this paper!! Your artistry is really outstanding! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@sydneyvonflue7647]

I love everything keep the doodles coming. The under sea is so neat, I want to try one. Will be watching this video again and pausing many time. Need to get some paper first. 🥰

[@joannesarlo518]

such a great tutorial Myriam... you explain everything so clearly and explicitly ... this painting is adorable!!!

[@Monikapip]

That is fantastic. I love all of your ideas. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.

[@hazel19113]

I just found your site and I love it. I love listening to you laugh and I end up laughing along with you. And I am a lefty too so I know all about smudging. Love your doodles also.

[@susandavenport8777]

I love this one too! I just love your style and the whimsy you put into each piece of artwork. Sadly, I watched this around dinner time and I was HUNGRY-therefore, I could not get past the rocks looking like poppyseed rolls! I tried Myriam, I really did! I like the rocks and will use this idea-- after a meal! Love and best wishes to you always👍🏻👍🏻🤗

[@karenroberts4274]

Wow! Stunning job! I’m a new fan! 😊

[@izzyjones7108]

the sand really Brought out all the other colors. love this muted and doodley project. I would probably do an octopus, or a squid a ray? a lionfish with flamey whisps?? oooh I think I'm gonna play around with this later

[@lindahobbs5545]

OMG your doodling is fine art! I am at a loss for what I would paint but I will think of something as this is such a cool idea! Thanks

[@najatamharech8203]

Beautiful 💖🌹🥰🌺💚thank you 🙏🏻

[@robyngriffiths9630]

That’s is gorgeous, and with great information. Thank you.

[@lorideelyart8949]

Loved the bubbles!!

[@Therioprofessor]

Very relaxing Myriam..

[@Prouderlib]

What can I say? Again you have lifted my spirits and given me great ideas. Thank the good lord you do not live anywhere close to me as my fam would never get dinner on time. You so give off an aurora of someone that would welcome you in and put on the water for tea if they knocked on your door. I could be totally wrong however I choose to see you that way...🥰 thank you so much Myriam with a “Y” for sharing your talents with us!

[@MyriamsNature]

And once again YOU have warmed my heart with your kind words. I always appreciate the time you take to leave such uplifting and encouraging comments. Thank you very much for that. Oh, and chatting over a cup of tea sounds lovely! 😘☕️💕

[@tinagini3093]

Omg, you are awesome! I’ve been subscribed for at least a year or more and still learning things from you. I have the duralar and the micro perm pens but never thought about tracing or painting on the reverse side; real game changer. Love your laughter and uplifting spirit. Be well...

[@carolynduryea3175]

Thanks so much for this idea. I don't draw as welll as you do, but I do have a lot of stamps that I could use on the paper then tranfer to the dura-lar. Using both side of the dude-lar is such a great idea. You are my favorite artists on U-tube because I love your humor thanks for always making me smile and enjoying your art when nothing seem right in our world now. Take care 😀

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Carolyn! Your stamp idea is such a good one... it sounds like there’s some doodling fun in your future😊. Thank you for your kind words. 😊😘💕

[@catherinefall2696]

I’m so glad you drew the fish, now it just needs a story and you have the start of a book. Amazing video 💜

[@bettycarlson4216]

thanks for the great idea provoking lesson - love all your tutorials

[@cindyfinn4845]

OOOOOhhhhhh I love it Myriam dura lar and pen is going on my list to get..

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank you Cindy! I think you’re going to have quite a bit of fun with those! 😊💕

[@cindyfinn4845]

@@MyriamsNature You're welcome Myriam Im looking forward to trying them out.

[@stephaniedavey]

This is just so professional Myriam - I doubt I could ever achieve such a professional finish. Love all the info you have passed on here and I also have some sort of weird affinity with fishy stuff and underwater scenes - I have three huge acrylic ink under-sea scenes on my living room wall - I painted them when we were caravanning around Oz some years ago. Can't wait to try this technique. Thank you so much.

[@Therioprofessor]

Love your stuff and style!!

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks Myriam, I have been trying to paint with alcohol inks for a couple of days now, but was having trouble with details. This video gave me so many possible solutions. I also think I will invest in some Dura-Lar. I love your underwater scene, I was trying for a beach but I think I would like to make some jelly fish. I liked your bubbles. Thanks for sharing your beautiful alcohol ink and doodle painting.

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Debbie! I’m delighted to hear that this video helped out a bit. About the Dura-Lar, I really think you’ll enjoy playing with it. Thank you for taking time to be so sweet! I love the idea of jellyfish... you can go so many ways with that. Happy inking!! 😊💕

[@naptimecreations]

Love how it turned out. I'm going to have to get some maribu inks If they're the easiest to "control" pinata inks have a mind of their own. Lol

[@Melscreativearts]

You’re voice is soothing, your laughter is makes my heart smile, and your soul is uplifting! I need to invest in the correct pen. I always get lost in craft stores with the pen section. I have no idea what to get for yupo

[@kathyhosch5644]

Love this and will try using Dur-lar, I like that you can paint on the reverse side and not disturb your doodles. Need another trip to order some transparent.

[@freedom65ec]

I learned so much from this. I am new at this and I had bought the Dura Lar translucent, but didn't realize that I could basically use it as tracing paper. That will help me a lot. Thanks. I love your videos.

[@annajavier5712]

That is so cool can’t wait to get out my inks

[@kathynorman4675]

You make my day !!!! Between your laugh and interesting art you are the BEST Thank you for all the good stuff!! from WV SMILE ON!!!

Thank you, thank you for that Kathy... I truly appreciate it! 😊😘💕

[@debbienix5790]

You are fabulous

[@BerniBernsify]

Oh gosh you have convinced me to use some dura lar! 😃 I was wondering what I could use those Sakura microperm pens for. Excellent video 👍 of course the fish needs bubbles 😁🤣😂

[@karenturner5443]

So pretty

[@tcfmarch17]

You're so awesome.

[@annzarro8331]

I like the bubbles.

[@denisegonzalez452]

Awesome thank you

[@izzyjones7108]

also a lefty and I recently for some of those pens...and find myself using the micro perm quite a bit. they're awesome

[@theresasuttle711]

Love love love this. I’ve used Dura LAR with watercolor pencils but not much else. Now I must 1) order some Dura Lar and 2) a new Sakura perm pen! Was it Sakura? 3) check your notes for pen type or rewatch video! Hehe Thank you for sharing!!

[@sandibroad4099]

I love your art! I like the bubbles. I think maybe if they were outlined that would work too. What do you do with your finished art? Keep it? Sell it? I have a box with my art. I don’t really want it. Thank you for all the awesome tips!🙌🤗

[@farahlarki3454]

Thank you love it 😍

[@ChristmasCarolSG]

I just found you and am so glad I did. Your work is beautiful! I love your enthusiasm and the encouragement you give. I do have a question - do you sign / date your art? Thank you!

[@Kelly-bp9op]

Love love the doodling over ink. But I need information on what pens to use on ceramic mugs that does not smudge if you know. Thank you so much.

[@dianaf1669]

Hello Myriam with a 'Y'.....First off, I want to say "Thank You" for teaching me SO MANY things on here! You are a Blessing to my life! My question is: What art canvas should I buy to do an alcohol ink painting? I'm dazed and confused in searching.....lol. Diana

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Diana! Thank you for your kind words!! When you say “canvas” for alcohol ink do you mean literal canvas (stretched fabric on a frame) or do you mean “substrate “, meaning any appropriate surface for the medium (in this case alcohol ink)?

[@dianaf1669]

@@MyriamsNature Like fabric stretched on a frame. Artist canvas.

[@karenhealey9009]

I am late to the party! This is fantastic fun! How do you use your Dura-Lar painting after it’s finished? I have the paper but am still wondering in what ways to use it. Thank you for this idea!

[@izzyjones7108]

wonder if wax paper or tracing paper would work ?? I know alcohol ink markers work..I made some jellyfish in some and loved how it looked slightly translucent

[@janefoster8117]

Could you please tell us how to preserve flowers in in resin? I mean fresh or pressed flowers. Much love from Jane in the UK xx

[@jennifertsang6572]

Hi. I love your videos. Do you know if we can use 70% isopropyl alcohol? Or even 50%?

[@dawnfetzko5652]

Absolutely gorgeous ❤️....can velum be used also?

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank you Dawn! Vellum should work similarly. 😊💕

@@MyriamsNature I am an essential worker. So I' m off to work daily. I would much rather be doing my art work. 😷👍 Be safe, be well!

[@adriennep7512]

I also wondered about vellum. Has anyone tried it? I really want to try this as I only use alcohol inks outside and not when it is windy or hot so subsequently, don't paint often.

[@Taitcreates639]

As always, you amaze me, love how soft this is. Gotta go get some of that pretty crystal translucent Duralax. Tfs. Ps, you definitely needed the bubbles. I have to watch this again and agin, I have to make one.

Seems like all the crafters in the world agree with you! Spoil yourself! Craft stores have never seen anything like it...isn't it wonderful! All the creativity being expressed in the world! I got my 100% pure alcohol at Paint Mobile, which is an automotive paint store They told me that the pharmaceutical companies have bought up all the alcohol for use in hand sanitiser. Here in Australia, the automotive paint stores are the only places that have it, because people use it to clean engine parts. BTW- This same pad of Dura-lar is $50 a pad here in Australia.
