[@simonturner138]

The birds singing outside made this video even more relaxing.

[@IMAGINENGINE]

My main objective is to find an artist who is seriously concentrating on their work while they are showing it to us. There’s no room for chatter in my lessons. Entering the right brain takes a special teacher. Thank you very much for the lack of chatter and a great lesson.

[@syedazim2011]

Completely agree. Many thanks.

[@fionahannon_art]

Just wow!

[@lenagemze662]

Thank you very much for writing your observation. I am myself tired of so much chatter. And I wouldn't be able to chat because I am too concentrated. And in fact I think that concentration is a must if you wish to create something good.

[@IMAGINENGINE]

@@lenagemze662 hi Lenagemze. It’s a pleasure meeting you and hearing your thoughts on this matter. You obviously understand the importance of getting into that zone. Keep creating.

[@lenagemze662]

Thank you! @@IMAGINENGINE

[@jenfleming9412]

O so excited to have a video again by you Lena. I immediately jumped to it. Beautiful as usual. Thank you. I have been working with acrylics the last few years but you make me want to get back to watercolours. The only thing that puts me off is the high cost to frame them. Thanks Lena so much.

[@lenagemze662]

Thank you very much Jen. The watercolour paintings get more expensive after framing. And if you want reflexions to disappear it is very costly. BUT personally I think there is no painting media as beautiful and fascinating as watercolours. But if you sell them, couldn't you make the customers frame them?

[@claudiachavez7300]

The birds are all we need! So soothing 😊

Look into waxing watercolors with something like Dorland’s (cold) wax. No need to frame or at least skip the glass

Lena, thank you so much for sharing your art with us again! This beautiful painting was well worth the wait. I hope that all is well in your world, that you continue to be inspired and find joy in the little everyday parts of life (like listening to the birds in your garden), and that you continue experimenting and growing in your artistic endeavors. You truly inspire me, and I thank you for that.

Thank you Cheryl you write so very nice to me. Like the world around us is changing all the time, I am changing too, and I was on stand-by for about 1 year because of Corona - but know I started growing again and decided to post more often in the future. Thank you for watching my videos!

[@cherylwalrath-duran2996]

@@lenagemze662 Lena, you're most welcome. I fully understand being on standby due to Corona, and how life has been changing. I've been in a similar situation since December 2020. It's thrilling that you have started growing again, and I'm so very happy for you! I know that making and posting videos is a not-fun proposition, so please put your creativity first, and post videos only when you are up to it. So many of us admire your vision and creativity, and you deeply inspire us with the videos you've been able to share. Sending you happy, inspired thoughts, and may the changes in your life take you on a journey that excites and supports you.

Thank you to you as well. The proportions are up to you. Sometimes I like to have a stronger colour, and then I put more. Usually I use about 1cm from a 37ml W&N and from a 24ml Lucas. But if you use smaller tubes, you have to put some more centimetres.
