Pink Blossoms and Doodles on Baohong Watercolor Paper

Spring is in the air! And it’s inspired me to bring out the pinks once again! I know, shocking, lol. I’m also working again with the Baohong watercolor paper and the Kuretake watercolors. I really hope you enjoy this one, because I’m very happy with how it turned out myself! Have a wonderful weekend wherever you are in the world, stay creative my friends, and I’ll see you next week with a new video! XO, B.

🌸 The golden cobblestones are a really nice touch. Perhaps it's because of the paper texture but the gold shimmering through (behind?) the pink looks georgeous 🥰

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

In real life it really is the texture that does all the work! It's pretty and I didn't expect it, as I'm not usually working with very textured paper 😊

[@patriciadirickx7248]

I like it very very much !!!!! The slow pace has a charm of its own…I find it relaxing to watch. But it is not necessarily an ordeal you should put yourself through each video 😅 … your video’s are a joy to watch in whichever format. But I 🌸🌸🌸 with pleasure. Your cobble stones are always a big plus.’ Thank you for sharing your talent and thoughts !!!!! I’m always looking forward to the next one ! 👏

[@tracylamb]

The addition of color pencil was nice and I did like the cobblestones. The light gray worked beautifully.🌸

[@Cyrilmc222004]

🌸🌸🌸 Thank you so much Bettina, I really really enjoyed watching you create this beautiful and uniquely gorgeous piece of artwork. I absolutely love ❤️ and adore it. It’s very whimsical and delicate too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤

[@juleeahlman]

🌸Beautiful! I love watching the in-depth videos. They're so relaxing.

[@patriciabeaumont4442]

Love this the pinks are gorgeous…your doodles are so inspirational…flowers are a favorite subject..in my photography,digital art and sowing seeds of many varieties for them photographic value…Thank yo so much for sharing your workflow…❤

[@cherrycato1940]

Beautiful work..💕💕💕💕 the pinks and your doodling style. You inspire me. Oh grey micron pens. I’m realy glad to see them, I find black often too harsh. Thank you. 🌟🍒

[@MariaIsGrateful_]

So pretty! When I use the back side I just tape it to the block. I can't stand curling. Tape to size you want. Thanks for sharing another beautiful piece.❤

[@Suzy373]

🌸 very enjoyable and inspiring to watch and listen to, thank you . A lovely painting!

[@lynnwilkins8722]

Just beautiful in it's simplicity! And the music is such a good choice!! It was indeed chill. Love it!❤

[@sheilakaye9705]

I very much liked this pink painting and the extras that you added later were just right! 😊😊😊

[@LeahMcKenzie-pc5oc]

I really enjoy the coloured pencil on the rough paper. The irregular dots are interesting. Your videos alway inspire me. Thank you

[@TeriEllen]

Another beautiful piece. I really enjoyed watching this and made it happily all the way to the end. 🌸🌸🌸 I enjoyed watching it in real time speed, but I don't think you should put yourself through something you don't enjoy in order to do that, especially considering that we can speed up or slow down the video on KZbin as we choose. I think the cobblestones looked great. I did wonder why you didn't tape down the paper to prevent the curling, but I figured you had a reason.

[@Pixieworksstudio]

Its a great video!! I don't mind a live - they are great, but I can't always make the time. I love your videos what ever way you do them. They opened me up to a new artistic concept - and its fabulous!😀

[@machelleshappyhobbies4977]

This is my favorite one that you've done. My favorite color is pink. Have a great weekend 😊🌸

[@thepoodledoodlepainter]

🌸 this is really beautiful and I'm enjoying your videos a lot! I find them very relaxing to have on whilst I'm working on my own art, so thank you for taking the time. I know it can't be easy watching yourself back, and it takes a lot of time to edit etc. Just wanted you to know it's appreciated ❤ Also, have you heard about the refillable, reusable pens by Tom's Studio? I have no idea about shipping to your country but I purchased one so I could stop throwing finliners away, and also use my own choice of ink colours. You get a mix of fine liner tips so you would be able to use your favourite 005 with your own inks. I found Sketchinks really good as they are permanent and waterproof. They do a nice grey too! Might be a good option for you to research ❤

[@kaychandler7681]

🌸 So pretty! I am really enjoying your art and videos. Best wishes xx

[@Ingeborgstrandebruun]

I really love to watch your artmaking😍 Today no exception 🌸😍🌸

[@lindakuck5981]

Just beautiful 😍 😕 well I don't have a cherry blossom emoji but I did make it to the end so im sending you a heart ❤

[@patriciabeaumont4442]

Absolutely love it….you are so inspirational…thank you…..🌸

I could watch you all day! Beautiful and relaxful. Thank you💕💕

[@christinegeertgens8610]

Just found your channel. I'll be subscribing. Love your painting! Another watercolor painter on YT, Kristy Rice, recommends Baohong Academy. It's a student paper, but she says it's very nice to work on and it's smoother. I bought some but haven't tried it yet. ❤

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

I will try it out! I'm still learning so much about all the different paints and papers, and my wallet only goes so far 🥴 when I finish this paper, I will try out a new one for sure! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@barbaraellingsen4997]

I am curious as to why you remove the paper from the block before painting. Leaving it on the block would prevent curling. BTW, I love the colors you used today.

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Because the idea was to use the backside, which I ended up not using, haha. Also I cut it down to a 6x9inch size

[@windyhollow22]

I love watching your videos. It inspires me and this speed was fine and an half hour is fine. 💕 Thank for always sharing!!

[@theadhdmarketer]

Everything you do is just so beautiful

[@joanfreeman5979]

I love watching your videos

[@ritademetzer807]

Lovely work. Very inspiring.🌸

[@ruthedwards9642]

Have yo ever tried the Micron PNs? You don’t have to worry about destroying the plastic nib on rough paper.

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Are they different Micron pens from the ones I use here? And do those come in the gray?

[@terririggle6106]

I love the pink and red together! The flowers are so sweet. I have to admit that I am not a fan of the texture on this piece. I like either way you present - in real time or sped up. You do such beautiful work, I always look forward to each and every video! ❤

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

It's definitely different. And the problem with textured paper is, when I scan it, I have to do a lot of clean up. I'll definitely make sure to use the backside next time 😊🌸💕

[@christinecude]

Your art is so pretty and I love your calming voice

[@andreaharutunian3838]

Watched till the end! Love it 🎉🎉🎉 so inspiring !

[@sheilagilleland4312]

Do you sell your artwork? I absolutely love your ideas.

[@christinecude]

I love your dots. I got some tools but haven’t used much yet

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Thanks! I used to, but not anymore

[@ruthedwards9642]

This is a beautiful piece!!! I love the pink! 😁

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Thank you! 💕🌸

[@GrandJan46]

so soft and pretty. are the stabilo pencils water soluble ?

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Thank you! No, they are just regular colored pencils.

Bonjour Magnifique aquarelle

[@sarahstevenson2384]

I really love your pieces, but one thing I would like to know, is how do you know when to stop? I find that I get so carried away with some pieces I fill every available space, but the ones where I have had more control, have definitely turned out better. I love the cobblestones by the way, I like doing them too. I also really like the lines you’ve added with coloured pencil, it just really gives it a more delicate feel. Thank you for your videos, I really look forward to seeing them.

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Hi Sara! I had those exact questions when I first started. I was never a doodler before I started my KZbin channel. But once I found doodling, I really got into it and wanted to doodle everything! During that time I did a LOT of paintings with doodles, which helped me figure out which ones I enjoy most. And so now I just stick with those and embellish with other things as well. There is nothing wrong with doodling a lot! If that's what your brain wants to do and it helps with whatever kind of release you seek from doodling, then just keep doing that! And then maybe, once you get it out of your system, or if you want to try a style with less doodles in it, your brain will be able to stop at a good place and call it done. It's hard to explain, but I hope you can tell what I'm trying to say 😊💕❤️

[@sarahstevenson2384]

@@_bettina_fernandez_ Thanks Bettina, I understand what you mean completely. I have a lot of pain, so maybe that’s why I can’t stop doodling 😂. However it turns out, I love doing it anyway and that’s the whole point isn’t it?! Thank you again, looking forward to your next video ❤️

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

@@sarahstevenson2384 definitely!

[@TheTerrylwg]

Lovely and inspiring 🌸

[@GrandJan46]

You should always be proud of your work, they are so beautiful. Great Job!!!

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Thank you so much 🌸💕

[@GrandJan46]

The dots are very organic and I like them better than perfectly round. 🙂

[@_bettina_fernandez_]

Well, I'm used to them being round, it being the purpose of using the dotting tool. That said, it didn't bother me, it was just an interesting observation I had 😊

[@CHARUL814]

Love it. Not a very pink person but this is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much for going slower. I understand that the video can end up being long but seeing the process is so soothing and calming. I really appreciate that you did it this way. Thank you. I get a lot of inspiration from you with doddles and colour choices. The light grey stones looks just right, suble and not overpowering.🌸
