[@vickimoyer1834]

Oh, so many of your videos have been inspiring. It may be the method you use, the brush, or the colours. I'm very harded-pressed to find just one video that has pushed me a little harder. So, I keep watching and experimenting.

[@kathyleek9628]

I really loved today's painting. I liked the words! your whole video was great.

[@priscillawarren9979]

My fave, too, was the rectangle blobs with doodles . I loved doing those and I learned so much. Thank you, CeeCee.

[@alicependergast732]

I am so happy to see your new video! Like many others, your little rectangles and doodles gave me the confidence to begin! I’ve moved on to some of your more abstract, loose paintings-and now always add gold. Most importantly, your calm, reassuring voice as you teach seems to make it possible to try new techniques and lose myself in the moment. I am inspired by something in each of your tutorials- I can’t choose just one.

[@Joan4me]

My heart is happy whenever I see that you are sharing your talents with us again. Thank you for continuing to be with us.

[@katiewilliams6591]

Yes, agree!!

[@dianespero2202]

My favorite is More Doodled Squares with green and copper watercolor beginner level. I’m a beginner.

[@candacekerr4139]

My favorite is the making of CHAPLE LANE. And the thatched roof. I’ve watched that over and over again. There is something special about it.

[@sandravermes4219]

I love this piece! I also forgot to mention how the music you choose and your calming voice brings us to a wonderful place!

[@patriciawentzpwentz6784]

I was in lockdown at a rehab center for 16 months during the pandemic. I knew I had to come up with something to keep me sane. I came upon you and began watercolor painting. I watch all your videos, became a Amazon junkie buying supplies. You helped save my life. I began happily painting every day. I'm still at it and just love it. I have missed you. You'd be surprised how often I think of you. You are a true artist with an incredible creative mind. Be well and know that you have impacted many lives.

[@Cchouette]

When "doodles" become a piece of art 🎨👍🏻

[@debbiefrick4380]

When I first decided to start watercolor during Covid, I discovered your video "the easiest flowers I've ever painted." With limited supplies, a box of Crayola watercolors, limited experience, and a love of florals, I was able to create pretty flowers that I felt proud to send on birthday cards. Your loose and easy style in all of you videos have inspired me to keep painting. Thanks.

[@jessiemontgomery5838]

Hey, me too!

[@tmy4874]

I started painting bookmarks with my Crayola watercolors that were maybe 8 years old or more. I'd bought them for my grandkids. After a few bookmarks, I decided to buy some "real" watercolors. I was disappointed, but kind of thrilled that the Crayola set gave a more vibrant look to my "art" than the others. Not what the watercolor paint's people want to hear, but then I'm just a doodiler, not a true artist! :0

[@patsyberk1187]

This is so close to my story too! I did a curbside pick up of my first watercolor supplies when Covid began and found the CeeCee easiest flowers! I was hooked! Thanks CeeCee, I’m still growing and making tons of cards two years later!

[@jaynekennedy8469]

You are too hard on yourself. You have inspired me many times with your paint and doodles. I generally make cards and one lady loved them so much that she bought five - all inspired by your tutorials xx

[@TheLindaLWeeks]

"practicing how to add the illusion of soft textures with watercolors" M009 - at this point, I'd been making an attempt at some watercolors...but the video inspired me to go for more than flowers. I wanted to be able to let out that art thing that was keeping me up at night! hugs, LW

[@bluelight017]

Does anybody else find themselves holding their breath when she's painting steady detail ie the gold rim of the circle ☺️ Beautiful piece btw 💗

[@deannamunro8148]

YES!!!

[@creationsceecee]

🤣

[@surquhart3020]

As a beginner, your intuitive, loose style and the addition of doodling especially the addition of gold are my most inspirational. Your candidness and voice are like spending time with a friend.

[@lynnfitzpatrick594]

Favourite video was the page full of leaves. Loved it and inspired me to buy some metalic watercolour paints. Who knew adding gold silver bronze & copper would make paintings look so different. Thank you for your inspiration 😊

[@creationsceecee]

oh my gosh, i remember this page! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnOle56ep6ZlZ8k it was so much fun to paint. i should revisit that idea some day. i just need to find a simple shape that can be repeated without too much fuss and then go to town with all sorts of yummy colors. thanks for that comment, Lynn!

[@k8marlowe]

I, too, have made dozens of the watercolor-doodle-grids, and I have had a blast with them… I still am, actually. That exercise has been the most helpful, in terms of inspiring me to practice a bit everyday.

[@Pamgria]

Like others, I can’t pick just one. I learn something from each one but what I’ve loved of your art is the freedom with which you apply color. It was so freeing to me to see your technique as it gave me “permission” to let the paint take me on a journey. Traditional watercolor seemed too restrictive for my style but your art has a joyful, simple elegance that really speaks to me. ❤️

[@jas8815]

If I have to pick just one, this is the first one I remember watching that made me go "Wow!", and made me start watching your channel. It was titled, "watercolor: using stencils to add or remove paint". Besides the beautiful, loose flowers, I loved the way you used stencils to remove paint, instead of adding it. I had never seen that done before and I thought it was brilliant and I really loved the effect.

[@dianekey4780]

At first I thought the two gold tones might overdo the painting, but no, it is gorgeous! Surpassed the one you were modeling from!

[@eddiec2748]

I have painted so many times with you in the almost 3 years since I first picked up a paintbrush at age 74.l I think you’re the first artist I found on KZbin and said, “I think I could do that.” And I did! I love your painting and your doodling. I have a feeling you have no idea how many people you inspire. This is the first time I’ve ever left a comment but I hope you read this so you’ll know how much I appreciate your talent and your heart. Thank you for sharing and inspiring. You’ve meant so much to me……. Ann from Arkansas

[@elizatgilbert]

I think the first one of your videos I saw was the same "doodling with gold and white ** beginner level." I was inspired to create birthday cards of a similar design with acrylic paints for my aunt and uncle, who are twins. I have been following you ever since!

[@kroline6258]

For me it is very difficult to pick one video because I love your style! But I can give the first one who inspired me and i thought "this one I can do it!". It was the landscape "morning glory". 🤗

[@Atnomdancer]

Love so many of your videos. The first one that inspired me and gave me confidence was “the easiest flowers I’ve ever painted”. I’ve painted flowers with your technique over and over again. It helped me to maintain a playful, joyful approach as I learned. Thank you.

[@ginabraun1576]

Yes! This video gave me courage to try AND feel successful.

[@kelseyomullane]

Yes, this was my favourite one too! I've even taught my 5yo and 8yo grandchildren how to do it!

[@conniew7285]

Yes. This was one gives me confidence that I can do this

[@dawnkinster]

Me too!

[@LibraryRoseReid]

I have been inspired by many of your videos but my favourite was the simplest Christmas card ever where you painted beautiful evergreen trees on the snow. The process was so simple that I took it with me to the reserve where I taught an art class at the college. Every student was so uplifted and inspired by being able to create these beautiful cards. Thank you.

[@Blue.Cat.Studio]

'stop overthinking - keep it simple with repetition and fill a page! **for beginners'-- I still love this! I've watched it over and over and painted along with you! The second is: 'stress-free watercolor and doodles ** all levels! ' Thank you Cee Cee for your time and creative spirit!!!

[@cclark8004]

My favourite was Doodling with White and Gold - that video inspired me to go out and get gold watercolours - that I love to create with. All your videos are inspiring. Thank you for posting so many wonderful videos ❤️

[@digitoes]

My favorite painting of yours is “how to make perfect doodle dots with gold watercolor. I was inspired to make my own version and now I’ve caught the gold bug from you! It just adds such a sophisticated classy touch that elevates even a plain piece! Thanks for all your inspiration. Sarah

[@molchmolchmolchmolch]

really appreciate the videos that don't necessarily require a lot of skill and still are a lot of fun. The ones you can just do and experiment without worrying about anything. They're so nice when you want to do/try sthg but you've got no idea what and feel overwhelmed by mostly anything. I really enjoyed the one with filling a whole page with leaves and the one with the blue and sand and gold-coloured ... shapes with doodling. But I also love watching the more involved and complex ones bc it's all just so beautiful. I'd even watch if there was no commentary (bc you said you didn't know what to say or how to explain sometimes)

[@louisebacon-ogden5032]

I have loved pen and ink with minute detail for a LONG time. That includes doing Zentangle. However, I have longed to do, what I call "watery" water color. I never felt "successful" with any instruction I received. During COVID I discovered KZbin. And, I found....YOU! I was able to do "splotches" enhanced with p&i. I loved the loose feel plus putting the detail in with ink. Thank you for starting me in the right direction for satisfying my ink and "watery" watercolor!

[@timh7246]

For me, one you showed at the start of this: bold green rectangle with a golden floral doodle on top, more than any other made me think, "I want ... no, I NEED to start watercoloring & doodling !!". Love so many (all?) of your posts, so hard to choose. Thanks very much ... for what you do & how you present it.

[@ChrissieNicely]

Once I made a condolence card that was inspired by your watercolour and doodles videos, so not just one video. Over the years you have posted so many inspiring videos that I am most inspired by your versatility and the way you always come up with something new - and I have always loved gold! 🤩😍🥰😘

[@jaynedough130]

i too have been inspired by so much of your work! for me it aII started with your pink fIowers with doodIes. i started watercoIour painting in january of 2019 and then got the chance to paint for 6 weeks straight, what bIiss! i am sure i watched everyone of your videos and painted at Ieast haIf of them over the next year and series of confinements i have painted hundreds of 'bIobs' and doodIes. i have enough to give cards to my friends untiI i die! i have now moved to acryIics as i dont have a deIicate touch but i stiII go back to bIobs and doodIes. thank you for aII your creativity and generosity!

[@margaretlents1829]

My favorite is also the watercolor squares that you doodled the florals in. I love this one, too.

[@jayne1265]

Don’t make me pick just one!! Anything that has watercolour+doodles always inspires me to have a go, you have freed up my painting so much! I am now much happier to sit down and just mess about with paints, relax and enjoy the process. Many thanks for your videos, keep doing you Ceecee xx

[@diannmcdonald4949]

Thank you so much for sharing your talent. The inspirational video for me was Summer doodling with gold for beginners. I had always wanted to learn water colour and your videos were exactly what I needed. I have since binged watch all of your videos and learned from each one. I am an artist at heart with a strong will to learn but struggle with perspective and therefore my art never really looks right. With your doodling videos I now love my art! I dedicated a watercolour book just to doodling and have painted several pages ahead so I can take it with me and just doodle with the pens on my down time. So please keep those videos coming. ❤️🇨🇦

[@neerapuri7431]

It’s so good to see you back. You have been an inspiration to me these past few months (2 to be precise) since I accidentally discovered your unique talent on KZbin. I have since painted about 40 odd paintings. My day seems incomplete if I don’t paint. And I’ve never painted ever in my 65 years. So thank you for sharing your gift with us. The fist one that I fell in love with was the repetition of leaves on the whole page. It was simple yet challenging. Looking forward to more gems from you.

[@eleonoragalindo8456]

Mine too. Just started painting during quarantine 2020. I have made two of those; Winter and fall. They were my first watercolor paintings I really liked and framed, they were my husband’s Christmas present for 2021. Love to know there’s more people like me, discovering new talents and letting creativity free later in life. I paint every day and this lovely teacher has taught me so much. Thank you so much Creationsceecee

[@cristinarusu5616]

I have been inspired by you several times (at least 10 times) but first was when I saw the loose watercolor floral cards. I made 31 of them and offered my students as a "goodbye present" when they finished their 8th grade. THANK YOU

[@fedirsymons2116]

Hope things are working out for you

[@NoniewithanO]

After a bit of a break from watercolour painting, I came across some flowers I painted a year or so ago, from your video - simple, loose, wiggle flowers. I like the way you brand your art with the touch of gold. Please keep sharing your knowledge. It is invaluable.

[@kristinbrodt3141]

I love all your videos but especially the one published June 29, 2018, watercolor painting and drawing roses. I love the pastel colors so I purchased cradled aquaboard to paint and hang in my purple living room. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creative work.😍

[@clfernandezab]

This video for sure make me want to go to paint. Love your work

[@CosimART]

Dear Ceecee :-), what a beautiful piece, thank you so much for sharing. Watching you create is always a happy and relaxed time for me. The first video I remember having given me the impulse to try this out for myself was the one with simple red flowers and gold. 🌹 I had tried to do watercolour before for several years by reading books and even signing up to an online class, but it wasn't until that very day and until having discovered your channel that I really "understood" and got a feeling for how to see and handle watercolours. This has been two years ago and the story continues... :-) it opened up a whole World of creative expression for me and I am so very grateful to you 🙏🌹🌹🌹

[@claudiaquiroga3383]

I'm always afraid to pick up my brush bc I'm always afraid to fail. But the first video that inspired me to try was doddles+gold Morning glory. Since I started seeing your videos I'm less and less afraid to try. Thank you so much!!!

[@hollygrosshans3529]

Love the color combo in this and the loose beaches.

[@sys.6978]

I like this painting a lot and the quote is so true! My first favorite was "stop overthinking - keep it simple with repetition" where you filled a page entirely with leaves. Your choice of colors, the side shots with your mobile and the music were just perfect... I'm a fan of Gavin Luke since that time. I've watched this video so many times, it's so relaxing. Thanks for sharing, Ceecee! Sybille

[@creationsceecee]

thanks so much! Gavin Luke's music is wonderful 😊

[@deirdresmith8326]

Dear CeeCee. When I saw your video with the quote of Michelangelo, “I’m still learning” I just had to follow your lead. I am always inspired by your beautiful art, Thankyou ❤️

[@kathrynmoon8793]

It started with a quote....July 4, 2021 inspired me to explore art journaling. I have been making handmade greeting cards for about 20 years. Other interests have included abstract acrylic painting, using watercolor pencils, Zentangle drawing. Your videos are always inspiring but I have not yet gotten a watercolor set. Thank you for sharing your art!❤️

[@kristiw.1823]

Your series of Watercolor + pencils is probably one of the most helpful for me... it had never occurred to me to try it and I immediately found a use for it on a beach in Japan, that I was painting for my sister-in-law. But your use of gold has repeatedly given me the freedom to use metallics and not be embarrassed by it. At some point, in some dialogue on a video, the viewers and the creator made comments about whether it could be practical to even bother buying metallic watercolor paints, because what would you realistically need them for. This was probably a year and a half ago. For some reason, I immediately was "shamed" (lightly) and questioned my love for putting in various little embellishments with gold or silver or .... Your gorgeous use of it, in all sorts of abstract work, has been so delightful, that it gave me the confidence to put it back in my work. Thank you for being authentic to your creative muse!

[@JudiLapsleyMiller]

About a year ago, KZbin showed me your video on simple watercolour flowers and I HAD to try it - so much fun! And that prompted me to get a paintset and do some online courses, which petered out when I got busy. Then recently KZbin showed me your doodling with white and gold and that took me over the top riffing on the idea. I'm back painting every day and loving it. Thank you so much for the inspiration :)

[@Deanriley]

I think the blocks of color with doodles have been most fun. I like all your videos and get lots of ideas; plus, your calm, soothing voice makes them even better.

[@defyant1]

The Easiest Flowers I Ever Painted is my favorite video. While the decision was hard, what I love in that video is the beauty in the simplicity; but also your enthusiasm that comes through which is what inspired me to keep painting. You seem to actually be enjoying the process. I've used the 3 dot technique to create so many soft, transparent watercolor flowers- the list is endless. In addition, I like the idea of actually painting with water, which this technique emphasises and is what drew me to this medium in the early part of my journey.

[@chrissdibona3562]

I too love your ‘grid’ doodles but my favorite is always the last one. Be well and take care

[@melissag3674]

Video fav: the spiral where you began in the center with a motif then began circling out adding organic shapes. Wonderful colors! I made a birthday card for a friend similarly using motifs suggesting her passions. To my delight, she framed it and it hangs in her university office!

[@creationsceecee]

how awesome, Melissa! thank you for sharing that story. have a wonderful day!

[@paulamorgan8030]

I think I have just lost 2 hours watching you paint. What I mean is I was so relaxed I thought 20 minutes had gone by but it went by so quickly. You make your videos so relaxing and I love your imagination. You're an inspiration to watch.

[@patriciabrett3820]

“The Easiest Flowers I have Ever Painted” made me go for it!!!! I have used the technique you demonstrated in that video to make lovely cards for friends and family throughout the past 2 years….. your videos always inspire calm and creativity and help restore balance and serenity….. especially throughout the pandemic….. please know that your talents are always appreciated…. Whenever you find the timing right to share with us all ❤️

[@shannonw6604]

Hard to pick a favourite but this one 'creating a peaceful abstract watercolor painting amidst chaos' was the most fun to paint for me. Thank you for being such a great inspiration and encourager of creativity in others.

[@patriciacreighton518]

"How to make perfect doodle dots w/ gold watercolor paint" AND of course all of your Christmas cards. Thank you for all of your inspiration. Way to many to list ❤️

[@dianemosher3213]

Love the shimmer. Absolutely can not get enough gold

[@chrisfiller465]

The video that inspired me to try watercolour for the very first time was the coloured blocks with leaves and patterns in them. The gold was magical and you made it look easy - which I know now it is only easy when you practice and learn by making mistakes. Thank you for introducing me to a new craft, I love it.

[@yuli4ka.w]

My favorite is the one you limited yourself to three pans and went over some color theory, mixing up a bunch of shades and painting wavy rows and some doodles on top, it seemed simple enough and yet a very fun way to explore all the shades between only two or three colors. 👍

[@MsChokaholik]

Yes - I loved that one too

[@sandrift]

Agree with so many others that the rectangles and doodles really inspired me initially because I’m a beginner and they feel (and are) so readily achievable; I’ve reproduced them with watercolor and digitally. Anything with doodles is nice because your doodles are “elevated”, maybe because of your use of fine liner pens? The touches of gold in your work are also distinctive, and I enjoy pieces like this one a lot. I also like the one called “creating a peaceful abstract watercolor…” from about 6 months ago. Hope you are well and I look forward to future videos.

[@i_-am_dynamine]

You have inspired me so many times! You are definitely my most beloved and favourite you tube artist. Whatever you do is so unique! Besides the seasons' series mentioned, I have tried the painting you did using jaune brilliant, cascade green and red iron oxide, if I remember correctly, flowers, a birthday card with balloons, Christmas cards, to name just a few and there are so many I'm intimidated to try! ❤️Love from Greece!

[@creationsceecee]

😊 thank you! you know i've been trying to find the first video you mentioned and i just can't find it. if you or anyone out there know what it is (title or link), could you please answer this comment? i'm intrigued that i can't find my own video and i'll probably slap my forehead when someone finds it 🤣

I agree with the others. It’s not just one it’s a lot of them. Your paintings are beautiful. I love your color combinations and your doodles.

The video where you painted a beautiful background then just did leaves.....stunning!

[@sarahberry3819]

I struggle to pick one painting for inspiration because I think in each one you have produced, I have been inspired by some element, be it the gold or using shapes, some of the colours you have used had me dash out to find them here where I live in Australia, then the excitement to see if I can produce the same light and intensity with those colours, so much of what you have produced over the years has inspired me …and you still do so thank you for that. 🤗

This is gorgeous! I love the mixed metallic paints.

[@mariaetheridge8343]

The thing is: I like ALL of your videos that I have watched... I'm into doodling and tangling and you have inspired me to combine them with watercolour. Watercolour fascinates me as I think it's the most difficult medium there is! You make it easier to just go-for-it! Thank you for what you do. Blessings.

[@lailanilsson6553]

Thank you! Beautiful art. I was a sleeper for a long time. But now I'm slowly awaken up. My first doodle was a video from two years ago. It was simple roundish squares in soft colours. Black doodles and gold of course. So joyful to paint. I love gold too. Thank you for the inspiration you gave us. x

The loose wild flowers with the/ tapping off the paint making a field of abstract wild flowers made me successfully create and sell many paintings. Also the cityscapes you did...i love and explored for hours and hours. Thank you my teacher!

[@christinecampbell4681]

One of my favorite pieces of yours was from about four years ago, June 13, 2018. It was a watercolor: doodling on abstract. I just remember being amazed at how you transformed a wash of color into finished, fantastical piece of art. This video motivated me to try something like it and the results has remained one of my favorite pieces. I have also embraced this concept to go on to do a whole series of fantastical landscapes on top of watercolor washes. Your use of color and control of the brush are amazing. The way I can get colors to bleed into each other without becoming muddy is something I aspire to!

[@dianarene8952]

Love this latest video. Can’t wait to try this. Don’t have gold, maybe I will go for a dark red ink circle. My favorite video is “The Art of slowing Down.” Watercolor with colored pencils. Those marvelous balloon trees. Truly a meditation.

[@bcoeinmo]

Your "creating a peaceful abstract watercolor painting amidst chaos" is my favorite and I return to it constantly. I've painted it 4 times. It is so meditative, so relaxing. I love the colors and everything about the video. Thank you

It was 2 years ago when you inspired me to pick up a brush for the first time and start water coloring . The video was “ The easiest flowers I ever painted”. I have been watching ever since! I do miss you but I totally understand. I hope this exercise will boost your spirts. You truly are an inspiration to many!

[@joycebrooks6345]

Thank you I just sat down and loosely painted after watching you. Using my gold … to mix into my paint… which I had never done before… oh what pleasure it brought. Thank you for inspiring me today. My watercolors have been lonely for months😊. So thank you again. Be blessed!

[@gayleh3508]

So many of your videos have inspired me. But when I was just starting out, I found your splashes of color with doodling over them to really attract me and got me trying them. I could do splashes of color! And the doodling was such a joy. Thank you so much. Please keep sharing with us.

[@eleonoragalindo8456]

You have no idea how much your videos have inspired and taught me, I have probably seen them all. I started painting in 2020. Just like Shan, I have made so many if those rectangles. I also love and made the falling leaves, two of them, winter and summer, my first ever paintings that are framed and hanging in my bedroom 🍃 😊. Love your artwork, and love your tutorials. I wish you could see my take on some of your pieces. Miss you around here. Hope everything is good with you so you can come back anytime soon. Thanks for sharing so much. I’m really very grateful for your generous contribution to my art.

What’s up

[@liane_kelly]

There is something so therapeutic and relaxing in watching your videos and listening to you narrate that I spend so much time doing so than chores and tasks that I should be doing. While i say to myself I can do that too, I’ve yet to be inspired enough to pick up a brush and try it. Once i do, i will re-visit these videos and decide which one I want to emulate and watch over and over to be sure I get the same relaxation and satisfaction of a finished piece. TFS

Morning Glory was the video that made my sister and I to pick up a brush and doodle. We love the doodling!

[@sweetpea6144]

So many come to mind, but one in particular was outstanding for me. The Doodle Dollies were exceptional. I made each of them into cards for each of my granddaughters. They absolutely loved them! Thank you CeeCee for making my little ones very happy.

[@dawnkinster]

I remember one of your videos that showed how to paint these simple little flowers starting with 3 dots of paint. Thst was what gave me the courage to start. You are the reason I paint little cards today, 2 years later. Thank you.

[@lindayoung2389]

I also cannot pick a certain piece that inspired me, I love the shades if blue, and buff that you use with of course GOLD and the doodles. I have tried to replicate some of them with some success. You do inspire me and I get excited each time you post! Thank you!!

[@mariannevanavondt128]

This video made me starting painting after 30 years. What a play with gorgeous colours!

[@pamelahansen5928]

Ceecee- THIS video is the one that inspired me - thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent with us 💝

[@debsalerno1915]

I loved this piece and I am inspired to try painting it myself. I love your watercolor and doodles videos and love the GOLD

[@susancaton2217]

I also love watercolor and ink. I love the rectangles with doodles and have made some of them

[@britdowson8324]

Thankyou for revisiting this technique. I am reinsured to try this. I think your simple shapes with doodles are my favourite and gave me the desire to play.

This was such a lovely painting. I really love the quote, and I love the mix of Metallics. I have been a subscriber for many, many, many years. I have watched (and enjoyed) every one of them. I am probably joining many others when I say that the most inspirational, the one that made me feel like I can do it, are the ones where I believe there was a series of seasons where you painted 9 rectangle blobs and doodled a little vignette inside each one. Gah! I watched those over and over. Those are the ones that motivated me to get our my supplies and just paint. I was also extremely inspired by your video where you disc bound your watercolor journal. That was a hugh A-HA moment for me. It allowed me to take the punch (which I already had) and take all of my loose papers and contain them in the disc binding. It is brilliant for all my swatch charts because you can add new additions exactly in the place where they belong. I also use that same method for binding all my Bible studies as well as all of my adult coloring books. It has been a game changer for me.

Absolutely "The art of slowing down". ❤ That one hit something in me on an other level... And every single one of your other videos of course 🥰 Love every one I've seen so far! ❤

[@waymire01]

Flat brushes are so underrated in watercolor.. everyone is all about the rounds. Flats give so many options and are wonderful for loose work, it's easy to produce either nice straight lines, corners and edges.. or natural, random shapes. Petals and leaves are interesting in a single stroke. Skies paint themselves with a bit of practice. I often work with a larger flat (depending on the size of the piece, I like a 1/2" for my preferred 5x7 to 6x9 size paper) and a #2 round just for the little details.

There are so many but I found the doodle bookmarks the most freeing and inspiring to do. Furthermore, the recipients of the bookmarks were really delighted with them! Thank you 🙏

[@lisaainscough2465]

So glad to hear a bit of happiness in your voice. You've inspired me to watercolour everyday and I still sew doodle books. Hoping you are allowing yourself to breathe and create what you need. Cheers Lisa

[@gailliguori3037]

The “Easy Flowers”, where you start with dots of color and rinse your brush and pull from the dot of color. I made several of those!

[@elisarolland8161]

Thanks to your videos I discovered a new way to express myself, my favorite is called: "the art of slowing down"

[@ThelmaGrace1930]

It was last year that I began buying supplies for watercolor. In autumn I was ready. By then I had binge watched your videos from past to present. There is so much beautiful inspiration there! But I would have to agree with the person who suggested to create this video. The rectangles with drawn branches, leaves, etc. was the one I went for in my own watercolor experience as it was easy for a beginner. I love your work with the blobs and gold,,, so inspiring. Of course mine were not as inspiring, but then I didn't stick with the blobs. Had I done so perhaps I'd be better at it by now. Thank you, ceecee for ALL of the inspiration you've put out into the art community/world/universe!!

[@gfp46]

Oh my…lovely rectangle with the lettering! But, really like everything you create; your soothing voice, background music adds to your process, and the gold! Thanks for sharing.

[@judyvega7543]

I started watercolor painting during the shutdown. I came across one of your videos and you have been my inspiration since. I love all of your paintings.

[@troyp.vanthorre9767]

White flower is the video that helped me to get back into water coloring
