I am in awe of your talent. I would seriously buy every children’s book you illustrated if you ever decided to go that route with your artistry. You have inspired me to get out my watercolor paints and other multimedia supplies and begin creating again. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world!

[@RandiLynnReed]

Aw thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! I am so honored, and I most definitely want to make as many children's books as I can! I have so many ideas 💛 I hope you have a magical time experimenting with mixed media & creating again! ✨

[@narriparri]

I also continued my childrens book inspired by Randi Lynn Reed's video 😍 big inspiration

[@dsims868]

Congrats, well done! They are dreamy! You have every right to be proud and WE are proud of you too. Thank you for bringing beauty into the world. It puts a warm peaceful feeling in us. Keep creating, beautiful soul! 🍄🦊🦉

[@atouchofmagic1244]

Beautiful paintings I love the colours of your art, the thumbnail looks good they would make good bookmarks or stickers 🥰

[@RandiLynnReed]

Oh that is a good idea! and thank you so much!

[@ednocondriaco]

I think you have such a special talent, being able to capture all that detail, full of a sensitivity as beautiful as yours. I love the way you convey your passion to your paintings.

[@RandiLynnReed]

Thank you so much for you incredibly kind words! I am so appreciative 💛

[@tawnyachristensen7310]

What a talent you have! Adorable!

[@insidetheoffice]

Your videos are so cozy, peaceful and beautiful 😍 Everything that you share makes my soul happy! Thank you for that! And your paintings are amazing too! I love it 😍 Congrats! Have a wonderful weekend ☺️😘

[@RandiLynnReed]

Thank you so so much! I am always so honored and overjoyed to hear when people enjoy and connect with my videos! 💛

[@suzanneparvey4346]

First of all congratulations on completing the art theme challenge. Painting one painting a day in five days has me amazed indeed. The paintings are just beautiful! I love all 5 of them. It was fascinating watching you create them with mixed media materials. Your so talented Randi! I can't say this enough my friend. I hope you make these prints available to all of us either in mini prints through your Patron or through your shop. I am happy you will be working on more book illustrations too. I am looking forward to a childrens story by you. I need to buy your first illustrated book for my birthday this month. A gift to myself. You have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend. Stay cool as it will be another very hot weekend in PDX.

[@RandiLynnReed]

Thank you so much, Suzanne! I am so happy to hear that it was enjoyable and fascinating to watch! It is such second nature to me that it's hard for me to view the process with fresh eyes! I will definitely be making most of them into prints for my fall shop update coming in the next couple months! I saw you ordered a book and I am so excited for you to receive it 💛

[@quietlife7186]

❤❤❤ You are in my heart and prayers Randi Lynn 🙏.

[@alexblaisart]

Aw man I have the same struggle with online art prompts. Mine end up being so stiff and I struggle with loosening up. Huge round of applause to you for doing this. Painting daily is so much work!

[@RandiLynnReed]

Yes! It is so hard!! Thank you so much for your encouragement! ✨

[@juliafonseca2131]

You are incredibly talented, Randi! The pieces were incredible, it would be hard to pick a favorite and the video as well, it was all beautifully done.

[@RandiLynnReed]

Aw, thank you so much Júlia!

[@LacyAnne2010]

[@janineduclos9774]

Oh I enjoyed this so much! I LOVE the immediacy with which you paint, you just get stuck in with such boldness! Maybe that is where having less time is better than having too much time! Day 2 is my absolute fave! You are a lovely talented lady xx

[@RandiLynnReed]

Aw, thank you so so much Janine! This was so nice to hear! Day 2 is my favorite too 🦊💛

[@shannonr8377]

I'm amazed by the way that you paint, and how after the paint has dried, you'll come in with coloured pencils and crayons to add even more colour and definition. Have you shared your process here on your channel? Your artwork looks so amazing that you can easily use it as children's illustrations or animated illustrations, I think.. It would look so nice...

[@RandiLynnReed]

Thank you so much, Shannon! I have shared bits here and there, but nothing as in depth as this video! And yes, I am definitely working toward the children's book world! I do currently have my first book available in my shop! 💛

[@shannonr8377]

@@RandiLynnReed Oh, that sounds so nice! :) I'll definitely need to check out your children's book

[@ellesteward]

I'm absolutely obsessed with your videos! They are always so soothing, inspiring, cozy, and pleasant. Thank you so much for sharing such joy and beauty with the world! Do you mind sharing what kind of camera you use and what you use to color grade your videos? :)

[@RandiLynnReed]

Hi Elle! Thank you so so much for your kind & encouraging words!!! They mean so much 💛 I use the Panasonic Lumix GH5 and I use various video luts I've purchased from a couple of different sites when I edit on Final Cut Pro!

Great video! This video has inspired me to want to paint more and experiment with mixing paint and colored pencil. Also love the music in the background!

Thank you so much, Sarah! I hope you have some fun experimenting :)

[@kimcartwright8111]

These were amazing, Randi! You are so talented! I hope they make there way to your shop. What an accomplishment. Take care.

Omg they're all so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!!! I would read the shit out of a book illustrated by you about their little adventures. EDIT: OH EM GEE I just saw in your website you have a book. 😵

[@SerenityStudioArt]

Hello! Love your sweet paintings! I’m a YT art content creator too and am amazed by your video editing! You have sooo many different camera angles. How do you mange filming all those angles while painting? Please share any tips🌺Thank you

[@RandiLynnReed]

Hi!! Thank you so much for your kind words! This is definitely a struggle to remember to keep up with when in the middle of a painting! I often forget to change up the angles! I do try to change it up whenever I have to wait for something to dry, or if I start to change media I will switch up the camera angles! Sometimes I even set timers on my phone so that I don't go too long! Hopefully some of those will be some helpful ideas! ✨

[@SerenityStudioArt]

@@RandiLynnReed Oh wow. Yes right that is a lot of work ,,,,but very worth your efforts! Your videos are beautiful !!

[@nickierodriquez7534]

Omg your art work is so pretty, do you draw the pictures or are they on them? I just love them!❤❤

[@RandiLynnReed]

Thank you! I do draw them first with pencil, and then paint over them!

KZbin is a great resource for those artists who teach basics! As well as Domestika is a great website that have tons and tons of courses you can take!
