Paint a Painting

" oh it's Thursday that means I can watch Gayner " .....a joy ❤

[@felicagriswold7276]

That is my thoughts exactly! Make coffee- be impatient for it to be done quicker- then go sit and watch her video. It is my Thursday morning treat. Good to know I’m not the only one. 😁

[@gaynorpattle]

Thanks Angie X

Thanks so much 😊

[@anitajones7804]

I watch your videos with a smile on my face, I love your enthusiasm and gung ho attitude to everything you do. Sometimes I'm shouting nooo don't do that and then you turn a frog into a prince😀. Your studio is so inspiring, full of gorgeous work and the sink is fabulous. X.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Anita ❤ well, your lovely message put a smile on my face 😊 Thank you X

[@andreaharley4047]

Hi Gaynor,love your abstracts and the loosnes of them. As always its the Thursday morning inspiration,never ever boring as so much variety as to what yr working on. Thankyou.❤🙂👍👍👍💯

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Andrea, lovely comment, thank you very much 🥰 Have a great week X

[@cindyfromsydney7693]

If I lived closer I would definitely go! ❤

[@natsyj1]

Hi Gaynor I have been watching you for a few months now, and I just wanted you to know that I love your style. As soon as I saw it, it made me have the confidence to keep painting, as I like similar works. I am also suffering from a deep depressive episode, which has been dragging on for years - and some days i don’t want to face the day. Your beautiful energy instantly lifts me and brings a smile to my face. I wanted to pop in and tell you that you and your art are an absolute delight. Hugs from Australia Natalie.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Natalie, thank you for watching and your message touches my soul. Big hugs back to you 🥰

[@helenw6243]

Thanks for a lovely video to watch with my lunch 😘👏👍🏼

[@gaynorpattle]

Thanks Helen X

[@magpie_mel]

I so very much love the sink painting...that grey/white, slightly grungy look makes my heart very happy, then combined with the whites and greens, ah, it's just so soothing. And I had to chuckle when you said you made such a mess because you always look so wonderfully glamourous and you never seem to get messy! I used to spend a lot of time in stables and I could walk through the middle of the barn, not touch anything and come out the other end utterly filthy so I'm slightly in awe of you. I daren't so much look at my paint pots without suiting up in my 'grubbies'. 🤣. Thank you for another wonderful video!

[@gaynorpattle]

Thank you so much for giving me good vibes on the sink painting X Thank you for watching and leaving a lovely comment X

[@victoriaseeber1481]

Thank you so much for all of your videos!! My painting has so improved since watching you paint. I love, love the sink painting!! Keep warm!

Hello Victoria, WOW....what a great message to read....and what a lovely person you are for saying it !! Thank You X

I love this channel. Gaynor you are such a pleasure to watch. I love your work. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put out these videos.

[@gaynorpattle]

Such a lovely comment, thank you for spurring me on X

[@kerrieb7473]

Yay, I’ve had my Gaynor fix for the week!! I just love your style so much, it’s free and relaxed and beautiful. You have inspired me so much GP and now I’m much more relaxed about painting and drawing and creating art and I seem to easily spend more time just playing and experimenting and making art I actually like. Thankyou so much.

[@gaynorpattle]

You are so welcome! A lovely, lovely comment, thank you X

[@maureendemetriou6278]

Hi Gaynor, Another inspirational video. Thank you so much. I love what you did with Reverie. Beautiful! I wondered if you knew that the RA in London is about to start a new exhibition 'Impressionists on Paper'. It’s on until March 2024.

[@gaynorpattle]

No, I didn't .... so thank you for that X And thank you for watching and leaving a lovely comment X

[@debhosaflook7849]

Oh Wow, this was so great to see you paint this after having commented on IG about it yesterday. I still love how it gives me the feeling of a wintry, dark, late night city street with a little light from a lamp post lighting the way. So beautiful Gaynor and watching your process is just mesmerizing. I could watch you paint all day and never want to get up and go create on my own. You are so very inspiring!!!! Thank you.

[@gaynorpattle]

I am so pleased you enjoyed it and I love your description, thank you XX

[@fionawhitfield925]

Hello Gaynor. Phew…..you’ve been busy. Thanks for reminding me to play with the technical pen. I was gifted one a long time ago, had had a play, then I forgot about it. I need to reintroduce it now, having been reminded. You could use it for detail when you do your boat pictures. I’m loving your abstracts, and also the sink, aka Reverie. Thank you for another bubbly, inspiring video. Have a lovely week. 💐

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Fiona, I have looked high and low for my old technical pen, I ordered the new one and today, looking for something else.....there it was....laughing at me !!!! A happy reunion XX

[@deborahmeyers551]

I love this painting of light and dark in the room love it and also 5he sink artwork is beautiful good luck with the exhibition you are amaizing Gaynor ❤

A big compliment Sharon, Thank You so much X

[@CharlotteMerl]

Hi Gaynor 👋 Thank you for doing longer videos, i hate it when they end but i know they must be alot of work on top of all your painting. I think someone else said this but the little abstract one put me in mind of a wintery, nightime urban scene- gorgeous! Super gutted i can't get to the exhibition but i know it will be a roaring success for you, it must be so exciting. Can't wait for a card video as i love seeing your ideas and how you put them together. Best wishes ❤

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Charlotte, working on cards for this Thursday !!! Thank you for watching and taking time to leave such a lovely comment X

[@donnicebarham4888]

Your indigo abstract looks like a street scene---I love it.

[@sherrierichard2848]

It did! An evening street scene. I saw the sidewalk and street lamp on the left and the golden glow of light , from shop windows in the lower right. 👍

[@gaynorpattle]

Thank you X

[@user-vx6rv2wj1v]

It's nearly midnight here on my Thanksgiving Eve, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching & found it a lovely close to my day. You and your videos are something to be grateful for this past year! Thanks for sharing- Karen

[@gaynorpattle]

Thank you so much XX

[@felicagriswold7276]

I really like Reveille! The florals on both sides really balanced it out. As you worked on the abstract I found myself really responding to the chair - the tans and browns in the series of paintings are lovely. Funny to me because the colors are not my usual choices but there is just something about it. I love that indigo color, but then I’ve never meant a blue I didn’t like. I’m sure the rain gets old for you but I just loved the sound of it! Bonus treat in your video for me. TFS

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Felica, Thank you for watching and yes, I'm warming to a few different colours - it might be the change in the seasons. Thank you for a lovely comment X

Thank You X

[@KathyBrooksArt]

This was so much fun to watch. Loved seeing you work on recreating the small painting. I had to laugh, when things get primal with me, my finger starts painting too; seems like the finger is the only proper tool at that moment. Loved it.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Kathy, On occasion the kneading bit of the hand joins in too 😂 Have a wonderful week XX

[@cherylrugg4750]

Love the abstract! The pops of red/orange against that blue are perfect! As always, you inspire. Thanks!

Very exciting process this week - my heart was in my mouth when I saw a mysterious cathedral on the right, winter night sky, someone huddled in the bottom right, a light standard to the left and light snow falling. Then - it morphed into a fascinating abstract. I still see a winter, urban night. Thank you for the journey, Gaynor.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Ann, I am really excited to try another small abstract and unleash the indigo again !! X Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. X

[@triciabennetts6578]

Thankyou Gaynor - now want to dig out my technical pen - funny, I’ve only ever used it to apply masking fluid when watercolour painting 😳 Would love to see how you actually print your cards at home - your sea birds and boats would make lovely cards!❤

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Tricia, don't say the P word !!! Having problems with the printer just when I need to get a collection together ! Every so often it deposits ink where you don't want it - I will run another maintenance sequence and cross everything that it works 😊 Have a lovely week X

[@marshawiencke3843]

Good morning Gaynor , I enjoy your sessions so much. I love “Revory” . What do you use for white paint? Is it heavy body or is it many coats? My whites don’t seem to be dense enough for what I’m going for. And lastly which Uniball pen do you use in sketchbook? Thank you for giving your time and sharing your gift and perspective. Today is Thanksgiving here in New England where I live, and on this day (well for me it’s everyday) I bring to mind and heart the people and things for which I am grateful. I am grateful for you. 🍁🙏🍁✨

[@gaynorpattle]

Oh Marsha , I'm heaping peace and blessing on you !!! What a lovely message X. I do use many layers of white, it isn't heavy body and now you ask, I don't know why I haven't tried it !! The Uniball is an EYE FINE. Have a wonderful week 🥰

[@marshawiencke3843]

Thank you Gaynor. May your week be filled with art and joy. Looking forward to your next video. 🌿🙏🍁

I love the add ons to the sink even though I also loved the sink by itself. Gives it a gentle finish. Interested to hear what other feedback you get.

[@teresaedwards4175]

Hi Gaynor 👋 That small abstract reminded me of Christmas 😀 looks like a snowy cold walk near a big fur tree and a little Xmas tree beside it, with a black dog looking at the small tree and another head of a dog in the foreground looking at the scene. Feeling Xmas dog walking vibes from it! 😊 It’s Amazing what we can conjure up in a painting…like magic 😄 Sorry I really don’t mean to be rude 😳 but I think most artists pronounce Gouache…. Gwaash. The pronunciation on google is just as the word is written…Goo ash but that is not how it is said in the Art field. Thank for all the work you put in to your videos 🙏 ❤

[@gaynorpattle]

Hi Teresa, Don't be sorry, I have had quite a few tips on how to pronounce Gwaash - and I need to practice !!!! I love what you can see in the abstract, I'm all fired up to do another ! Have a great week X

[@SimoneWhippArtist]

Gaynor, in the beginning of the video I was admiring the large painting to the left of the sink painting before I realised I was looking out of your window! 😂 I think I need new glasses or a new brain! Seeing all your artwork displayed around the cabin must be so inspiring for you. I have a question for you Gaynor - do you ever feel sad selling your work on? I sometimes feel sad at the thought of letting some art works go. I hope you have a lovely week. Good luck with the upcoming exhibitions. x

[@stefaniecolonius4780]

I was just wondering the same and wondered if she does prints.

[@SimoneWhippArtist]

@@stefaniecolonius4780 Great minds think alike! ☺

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Simone, I usually get to meet the people who buy my art and we connect through the art, if that makes sense, so I'm fine with letting go. I have work that I'm not ready to let go of and I keep that in the House or Studio. Have a great week too X

[@SimoneWhippArtist]

@@gaynorpattle Thanks Gaynor. That is interesting to know. I've never heard artists talk about this before. It must be hard when people are forced to sell their art that they still feel connected to. x
