Thank you so much, Margaret. I was using Canson watercolor paper.

I also do similar techniques with Canson mixed media paper.

I agree! Maybe that's in the works for the future. :)

Thank you so much, Kathy! I love that you see it as a quilt. I was thinking that too. :)

Thank you so much, Ivan! It was a really fun class.

Thank you so much, Maria!

I loved it! They did such a good job putting it together.

Thank you so much! I hope you do. :) I'd love to see how it turns out.

Thank you so much and thanks for checking my video out!

@@elisabethwellfare You're welcome.

I'm not sure, Em. It'll probably need to be something more graphic with black and white to stand out against all that color and pattern. :) I'm having a great summer so far! I hope you are too! :)

@@elisabethwellfare I like it as is! I could also see B&W on top being fun. :)

Thanks for checking out my video!

I loved seeing the Modigliani sculptures again, his work is amazing but unfortunately it wasn't possible to include every piece we saw.

Thanks for checking it out, Gemma!😊

I had a feeling it might interest you, Gemma. :).

Thank you so much! Do you create collages?

Ooh, I l love that idea, Emily! I'll have to add it to my list of art ideas to explore. :)

Or when your self portrait month rolls back around? ❤

@@emk1312 I love that idea, Em! I did a collage portrait for one of the first and it was so fun. Thanks for the great inspiration! Are you creating anything fun this week?

@@elisabethwellfare Yay! I can't wait to see. I've been dabbling but no finished works to share just yet. I hope you're doing well! :)

@@emk1312 I hope you are doing well too.

Thanks, Ridhi! I'll be incorporating these in future art experiments. :)

The pinecone was one of my favorites too. :)

Thanks, Gemma! I'm really enjoying them. :)

I do too! Thanks for checking this video, Mark.

Thank you so much! And thanks for checking out my video. Do you create collage art?

Thanks for watching, Gemma! The Urban Sketchers of West Michigan group is going in a few weeks and I'm so excited not only to join them for the first time but to also get to enjoy the lantern festival at a slower pace. :)

@@elisabethwellfare ooh lovely, so you might get to sketch some as you stroll maybe? Have a great time!

@@GemmaThePen Thanks! :) Do you have any art adventures planned?

Thanks for checking out my video, Brigitte! It's such a neat experience.

Thanks, Mark!

I'm so glad, Joanne! :) They were so fun to create. ☺

Thanks, Jutta! It's really fun to see what comes out of creating this way. :) Oh yes, Prismacolor by far are my favorite brand of colored pencils. They are a soft lead that layers and blends very nicely.

Thank you so much, Keren! Yes, I found mounting my watercolor paper to cardboard first to work really well when I embroider into my paintings. However, I've done it without mounting first and that works well too, as long as my paper wasn't too thin or delicate. Do you embroider or sew back into your artwork?

Thank you so much, Jen! Have you ever played with embroidering back into paintings?

No, I mostly embroider onto cardstock in card making. But I’m always on the lookout for other uses for embroidery. I hope to start doing it on my photographs.

@@jenrodgers4677 What a great idea for card making! I'd also like to incorporate it into my photography or work more of my photography into my embroidered paintings.

I think you'd like sewing back into your paintings. If you are curious to learn more about it definitely check out my Skillshare class.

Happy Valentine's Day! Thanks! It was a lot of fun to create. :)

Thanks, Jutta! :)

So do I. :)

It also works to dissolve colored pencil which brightens the colors and blends.

I'm so glad, Jutta! Thanks for checking it out.

Thanks, Brigitte! I had a lot of fun creating it and even made a second one when my youngest kiddo asked if I'd make him one too. :)

Thanks! I occasionally put a piece of copy paper over them and press and rub the surface to ensure they stay flat. My favorite is iBayam Fineliner Pens but they aren't waterproof so I have to be careful with mixed media work. Otherwise my go to are Micron pens.

Thank you so much, Jutta! Ooh, that's a great idea! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for checking out my video! Are you creating any Valentine themed art?

Thanks, Em! It's one of my favorites so far. :)

Thanks, Em! I had so much fun creating this project. There will definitely be more food mixed media collages in my future. 😁

Thank you so much, Em! :)

Thanks you so much, Jutta! I'm glad you enjoying them. :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! If you try it out, I'd love to hear how it goes as it's a new technique I'm exploring more and more in my artistic practice.

@@elisabethwellfare , I will, thanks!

I'm so happy with how it feels to walk in and create in here. Thanks for stopping by, Jutta! I love the red couch too! :)

Thank you so much! Add thanks for stopping by. :)

Thanks, Gemma! I love it down there! And thanks for stopping by! :)
