I can't say how much I've missed your calm voice and inspiring videos - welcome back! Listen to your body and your intuition; if live-stream is less stressful - go for it. I will watch whatever you post and learn from you. The book at the end of your video has given me an idea for a book using my big collection of "tea bag wisdom" quotes and fortune cookie sayings. And congratulations of the birth of your first grandchild - they are such a delight. Thank you so much, and bonne santé! FLOWER

[@lynairenajbert]

Flower - absolutely gorgeous and so good to follow for a newbie. Tku ❤

[@gayleh3508]

Have missed your calm voice and painting so much! Keep it simple and short and we will be thrilled to paint with you! You were one of the first watercolor artists I followed and it was so serene to paint the simplest things. I'm glad you're back. Don't be hard on yourself.

Hi Cee Cee.. Your exquisite artwork and gentle voice stories are beautifully articulated so gracefully and with such emotion and passion it would be such a loss to lose you as you and the music make the whole process so peaceful and forever enjoyable. I would love to learn this gentle process for my life 😊 I would be so grateful however your health and well being needs to always come first my friend.. you are a beautiful soul! Please stay with us if you can and enjoy those cuddles with your precious grandson😊 I miss ever seeing and holding my 3 grandchildren as they live in Switzerland and I in Australia ❤

[@katarinahljung7422]

Flower, yes, what a fantastic flower!! 🤩 Thank you for resisting a lot of discomfort and anxiety to give us inspiration CeeCee! ❤️ But I don't think you need to worry so much about what we will think of what you share. Most of us get excited no matter what you paint, what technique you use, whether you speak or just play music, or whether the video is long or short. I think most of us just want you to feel good and paint what You enjoy and get something out of. Because no matter what you share, it's completely unique here on youtube! No one even comes close to what you put out, in your genre. We followers are completely enchanted by all your videos! 🥰 So, many thanks again and see you back here when You want and feel like it! We will still be here! 🤗 Lots of love from Katarina and congratulations on your little grandson! ❤️

Never, ever doubt yourself for a nano second !!!! Your talent with a brush and watercolours is THE BEST! Do what you have to do, either live or recorded to get back on You Tube and share your lovely paintings with us. Whenever I have the opportunity to watch and listen to you, I feel so happy and relaxed. You motivate me and calm me. Thank you for sharing.

[@Patekdesigns]

Beautiful FLOWER! You are way too hard on yourself. We watch you for your beautiful talent, not your editing abilities so maybe don’t put pressure on yourself to edit so perfectly. I struggle with anxiety and depression and it gets overwhelming so I give up and retreat. I know I shouldn’t and I try everyday to push out of it and let people in so I know how you feel. You are not alone and stronger than you realize.

[@user-gs8tc8rj6d]

Thrilled to see you back and doing the painting you love so much. Whatever you decide is best for you in your life is going to be fine with everyone, I'm sure of that. Be easy on yourself, enjoy that little bundle you are blessed with, and hope to see you again soon. You have been missed more than you know. And thank you!

[@creationsceecee]

Thank you so much, Joan! Wishing you a wonderful week 😊

[@paulalynnette64]

I cried out with joy literally when I saw you were back. You were the very first KZbin artist who inspired me to reach out towards my dream of painting with real paint. I used to paint in a software, ArtRage, but always was scared to make mistakes with real paint. No undo now, and I am now painting in my own little art studio in the room I share with my cat, Bella. My sisters and father are all artists! I didn't go the art direction but instead music and church activities when I was young. I didn't start playing with real paint until my 50's because of you. I am now nearly 60 and loving art so much! You are so kind and have helped me tremendously. I bought my first gold paint over a year ago, and again you're who inspired that one. I would love to see you live or recorded. As long as I can watch and learn from you I am quite happily satisfied. Praying for your anxiety and happy for your Nana status!!!

[@cathygolden1851]

I echo the sentiment of so many . You were one of the first you tube artists I first watched. You have such a unique style and soothing voice and advice. Would love to watch a livestream! Thank you for being back - we’ll take more of your inspiring work whenever, however it works for you. Congrats on your grandson!

Ceecee, you were the first watercolour artist I subscribed to when I started my art journey a little over a year ago......the gold queen.......and then you disappeared! I have missed your tutorials so much, and was praying you were OK. I am so happy to see you back. What a gift it was to have you pop up in my notifications. I love your painting and teaching style so much. Your voice and choice of music are so calming. I truly appreciate that you get straight to the point showing us what to do, and then allow the music to take us on our painting journey as we watch and follow along and paint. I don't need or want to listen to someone babbling on. I enjoy painting in tranquility. I also don't need fancy editing. In fact a livestream would probably be great as we get to see everything you do, offering more learning opportunity. Just don't get lost in answering questions, or feel the need to talk throughout. I may not be able to join the actual livestream, but would definitely watch it from your library. Be kind to yourself and do whatever you need to do. We need you back! Greetings from South Africa❤

[@donnajordanDJArts]

Enjoy every moment! Your work is gorgeous as always. Welcome back and looking forward to future videos❤

Congratulations on your new grandson!

[@lisasolonynko7370]

It is wonderful to see you back. I completely understand your frustration with the video editing process, etc. I used to live stream a cooking channel until I had a stroke.. That really took out all of my confidence. Doing art was a huge part of my rehabilitation, both physically and mentally. I have recently decided I wanted to do art on KZbin, and explored creating videos and doing voiceovers. That was just too much, and I really did not want to continue. I have decided that live streaming is the way to go. I have done one live stream and will endeavour to do them every couple of days. It really does take the pressure off of, my tendency for perfection. I just want to create a place where people can explore art with no pressure. I think you would do an awesome job live streaming and it would really take the pressure off. You are a pleasure to watch and I would join you for any live stream.

[@creationsceecee]

thank you Lisa. it's comforting to know that some people get the amount of work required to produce good content. sending healing thoughts you way and hope to catch one of your future live streams!

It was wonderful to have you back here! It was your playful style that got me back to painting last year. I can totally understand burnout. Sometimes one can recover and sometimes it a sign that we need to go in another direction. I hope that you are in the “recover” mode. For me, perfection and editing are absolutely unnecessary - just painting along with your video is like painting with friends (without the stress of peer pressure). Thank you for the free drawing!

The precious little girl that made me a grandma was born in Japan. Of course we were there, because we were lucky. We had return back to the States about 2 weeks later. I couldn’t stand being away from my girls so I returned 2 weeks later. I spent as much time with them as I could. When she began talking she played with her toy phone. Her mommy asked her if she was talking to grandma Kairi said yes. What does grandma say. Kairi replied “flower”. I love your style and the peace. We need to not demand so much of ourselves especially as our lives change. I now have 6 granddaughters and one dear Grandson. Thank you CeeCee

Am so glad you are back, missed hearing your voice and watching you create…When I first started following your channel on the suggestion from Kristina Werner, I fell in love with the creations and your voice. You sound like my favorite cousin, whom we lost last summer to that terrible C, but now you’re back and I can watch you create and hear your soothing voice. Be good to yourself first, enjoy that little grandson and don’t worry what we need from you…as another talented crafter says, “You do You!”. Welcome back CeeCee!

Thank goodness you're back. ❤ you are human and being honest and vulnerable is a gift to us. 😊

[@ruthjosephson3102]

Wow! I was so happy to see a brand new video from you - one of my favorite KZbin artists! I love your sunFLOWER! 🩷

[@lauriefolsom6747]

I have missed you. Welcome back. Thank you for setting a good example by taking care of yourself. Your videos bring me so much joy. Congratulations on your new grandson? Being a grandma is the best.

So happy to see you back! Watching your process and hearing your heartfelt lovely voice just brightens my day every time I paint along with you!

Any way that you're able is fantastic! Thank you 😊 I started painting in watercolor because of your guidance and Love! Take care of yourself and enjoy that grandbaby! They grow so fast! ❤❤"Flower"

[@creationsceecee]

Haha they sure do! Thank you for the sweet comment 😊

[@sculptor210]

Oh CeeCee, it warms my heart to hear your smiling voice and see your beautiful work again! You have been missed, but never apologize for taking time to recharge or to move in another direction. You were the guiding force behind my foray into watercolor. I am painting every day (seriously, every day) and loving every minute...even the frustrating minutes! Thank you for your never-ending inspiration and dedication to teaching. Heart skipped a beat with the rogue red stroke, but it was a spectacular happy accident! ❤ FLOWER!!!

[@britdowson8324]

I loved watching you paint. I’m glad you added an extra FLOWER to the oops. It looks amazing! Please reach out to us in whatever way makes you happy.

[@94VandalFavorites]

FLOWER I’m so happy to see you paint again. It was very kind of you to share your experience with us. I believe we have all felt overwhelmed with something that used to bring us joy. My favorite part of ALL of your videos is YOU. Your energy, talent and humor are delightful. I say, do what you love to do and if/when you share it with us it’s a blessing. You’re an amazing artist!! Be well friend!

[@cathyschuster1859]

I have MISSED your lovely videos! So inspiring and informative. Thank you so much for being back!

[@cheriew1428]

I was delighted to see your video show up on my notifications! I still enjoy watching and learning from your previous videos. You do whatever is best for you. I will always enjoy seeing your work here in whatever form you choose. Life must be balanced to be truly happy. Enjoy the grandchildren 😊❤🤗

[@beckymeldrum7022]

You’ve been missed but so glad to hear your voice again! Congratulations on having a grandson!

[@DementiaHopeFormula]

I agree with CarolHeath. It’s your honesty, your vulnerability that is refreshing especially on social media. I understand how exhausting editing is. I would do about 50 takes for a short video on my website and then still not like it. Life is too short. Do what you love to do and I think live streaming is a brilliant option. You are a beautiful artist and I’m so glad I found you. Thank you for your courage. It’s inspiring. ❤️🤗

[@joniperkins4277]

FLOWER - I'm glad you have bounced back from your burnout! I'm so happy you are creating again!

[@jacquelinegutkin1912]

Flower, so happy you decided to start posting again! You’re one of the first people I started to watch when I decided to learn about watercolor. You are a great artist and teacher. Don’t let the technology prevent you from sharing you gift.

[@VictoriaDurie-f9r]

(Flower) First of all it is so nice to listen to you, but more importantly to watch you paint and learn from what you do. Please don't stress about the edits, just paint and let us savour the moments with you. Congratulations on becoming a grandma! I have one grandson also and he is my absolute joy. On a side note when he was two I started letting him use some watercolours and he LOVES them and now at 5 he wants to be an artist. You have much to look forward to.

[@bonitaperry6504]

FLOWER Pretty, Pretty. Don’t worry we love your art, music and teaching, and will watch whenever you decide to share your talent. Thank you

[@helenbaker3142]

[@gloriamoline678]

FLOWER. Enjoy the baby! You are a meticulous painter. Lovely to watch.

[@cosmiccoyotedog-doreenb9605]

FLOWER I was so excited to see my favorite watercolorist artist back on YT. I missed you so much. Congratulations on becoming a new GMum. Just before you added the gold, I was going to say in the comments...'please use gold' Yeah. ! CeeCee I will watch you no matter if its live or videos whenever however you feel like it. Bless you and your family and hope your voice gets better.

[@WorldWideWebObserver]

“FLOWER” Hello CeeCee! Thanks for another calming video with beautiful music, stunningly gorgeous art, and your soothing voice. I can feel my blood pressure plummet and the anxiety melt away as I partake. Great therapy session! Sending hugs from USA.🇺🇸

[@pixipatricia4304]

Congratulations on the arrival of Little CC! Welcome back. You have been missed!

[@creationsceecee]

thank you!

[@bonitadonovan4704]

I am delighted that you are back. Beautiful art. Sensitive soul. Thank you!

[@bonitadonovan4704]

I was so excited to see you back that I made an immediate comment. Now I have watched until the end. Your finished "Flower" is lovely. I am stunned at how lovely your earlier project turned out. How kind of you to share such fine artwork!

[@tgal1163]

Flower-I have missed you! You are the first u-tube watercolor artist I started to follow. I actually started watercolor because of you. You are a great teacher and love the way you present your videos. Just wanted to say Hi and congratulations on becoming a nana!

[@TheFeralGoatCreative]

So happy to see you again! Just do what makes you happy and forget YT’s algorithm for now. It’s funny, I used a gold gel pen a couple days ago and thought of you. It was so good to hear you laugh. Use this platform as a way to experiment with how you want to share. 💚🌼

[@MarySparkle]

I have missed your videos so much and I never expect a perfectly edited video. Just hearing your voice and seeing you create is perfect. We know you're a real person with feelings and emotions and we love you, Ceecee. As someone who has done a lot of editing, I know the effort it involves and the amount of energy required to do it. Anything you can do to make it easier on yourself will be welcome here, Ceecee. Congratulations on your new grandson. How wonderful.

[@mogsya3367]
