This little village absolutely glows in the sunlight, Diane. Don’t know how you create such lovely pieces, time and again - performance anxiety paralyses me in the privacy of my own home, never mind the very public social media world! In gratitude and admiration for all you do.
@@cathygraetz7229 Hi Cathy, no, it’s not quite that late, it’s 9:45 pm right now. I’m just trying to answer some of tonight’s comments before going to bed! You are the last one and you are the winner because you got two answers tonight!!! Thanks so much again, much appreciated xxx goodnight! Zzzz
This is absolutely adorable….it amazes me how you can paint with abandon…you just do it, now me, I have to analyze and overthink a composition! Just love how a blank piece of watercolor paper becomes a wonderful piece of art! Thanks for all you do and your talking to us like we are right with you and we are all friends!❤
I love the way you repeatedly emphasize that we need to look at this as PLAY instead of work. I love your whimsy, I love your serious work and I love the way you present when you paint. It’s like I’m sitting in the room with you and we’re just painting together. You really are so much help and are such an easy teacher to listen to. I just wanted you to hear that because you sound like you could use some love, even if it’s from the peanut gallery far far away. PS- had to laugh at the love lorn rooster adding to the ambiance.
Hi Freya, I just saw your lovely message and wanted to thank you for bringing me a smile this morning after Covid and a terrible storm have hit us here in France! So glad you are enjoying the videos, and hope you continue to paint along with us!
Another inspiring session, I really love listening to you natter away, it’s so soothing. I too loved the Forsythe Saga and I, Claudius. I remember Peyton Place too, my mother would shut my sisters and I out of the living room when it was on, I never knew why! Thank you again x
This was a lovely piece as it was. I believe I liked it better before the black. No piece of art us a disaster,if nothing else it's an exercise in learning You are by no means to old!!
You have done a great job you dont need to change anything you do great ARTWORK. SO QUIT PUTTING YOUR ❤ARTWORK DOWN. YOU DO VERY GOOD AT YOUR ART WORK WHILE ❤
Poor Soames! Takes me back to boarding school, rainy Saturday afternoon, the nuns let us watch TV, or a film. We watched the whole of the Forsyte Saga. I think a new version was made some years ago. Nowhere near as good! Sigh. Oh to be there again...
I love how the buildings look all nestled together and I LOVE the twiggy trees behind them!! It may not be “high” art but it’s warm, colorful and there’s an energy that I get from it and you that makes me smile all over!! From your original piece, I like the green areas which made it seem more woodsy and forest-y. But this one definitely is quite charming!! Oh, I made sure that my name is added to the list for your new brushes….😃😃
Everything you create ends up generating or radiating a sense of happiness. So delightful to watch it being created and feel the output of the positive energy. Thank you.
Oh goodness, my husband gets so frustrated when I am concentrating I CAN NOT talk at all. I appreciate this video because it was fun. Something if I looked at it, I would never even think to try anything like it, but watching the process I REALLY do want to. And it is a no pressure just for funs. So, thank you for posting it. We still learn and are inspired and comforted that even someone who creates regularly still can make something they do not fully approve of. I love the little tracing paper sketch. I haven't looked yet but I hope it is posted in the available sketches. Even if we can just have it to look at really helps as we draw.
I felt totally transported in Switzerland for a while, and also in Whistler, Canada during your painting session. It was fantastic. I love mountains and find it difficult sometimes to show some depth in my landscape, and proportions, so this was very useful to me. Thank you so much Diana
My 23th. For someone who wants to lay down and grome you did a great and looooong job painting an atmospheric autumly piece. You used quite a lot of materials and in the end you where not sure if you liked it. You even grumbled asking yourself being to old 😅😅. I liked the underpainting with all the fitting colors. Also the moment where you sad you didn't like your painting and went on. All you added afterwards made it better I think. Have a nice day Wim 😊
I think this would make a beautiful card, Diane! Love how you do those beautiful, and colorful backgrounds. I feel so free trying to paint them. This one’s going into my “Diane Watercolor Art” journal❤ Thank you for your loose, colorful , relaxing works of art‼️
Diane, Nobody can do it like you! I love how that picture just flowed out of you! Thanks for the great chat while you do it. You just make my day! I made this comment before you changed to the black pen, lol.
You called this relaxing, it is just what I need, I’m going to try it. You always have something new and whimsical. I have no idea what mine will turn out to be, but the fun is in doing it. Thank you.
Thank you Diane I loved this one. I laughed when you got to the point you didn't like yours and started making changes. I made the changes too right along with you. I love mine it's so colorful and interesting and as a beginner I can do this.
I would love to be able to create this from my own imagination instead of following other peoples ideas( although I do love following your tutorials). It’s lovely.
Oh how funny. Turns out that ugly is in the eye of the beholder. I was inspired to paint alongside you today and when you got to the part where you said you weren't happy I looked at mine and I was very happy. But I kept going forward with you and was happy throughout.
I love your choice of colors. This, it is a slow down Friday. We had a wind storm yesterday. The wind blew down 15 trees and 6 old cacti. So sad. Your was wonderful, thanks.
Definitely not a disaster. I just received my MEEDEN wc paints and hot press paper block. I’m going to try to do this using my new supplies. I only hope that I can reach the “disaster” mark that you showed.
I thought your painting was beautiful and unique. I love the colors and the whimsy ❤️ I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for sharing with us and so glad your Cockerel is back😊
I am so sorry you were not feeling well when you recorded this. I hope you are much improved now. 🤞🤗. I knew right away those were military jet aircraft. I used to live on an American Air Force base right at one end of the flight line. Many of the spouses whom were my neighbors really hated the racket, but I loved them. I would always run out my door so I could watch the jets taking off… LOLs 🛩️❤.
This is NOT a disaster. I finished watching this today. We are always hard on ourselves. I am going to try to paint something like this. I love Fall. TFS. ETA. Now mine turned into a complete disaster. Lol!
You have such a relaxed aura when you paint. I so enjoy your videos - watching you certainly relaxes me - painting and talking would certainly not work for me - I love the picture -the colors and the whimsical trees and village -love your imagination!!
I love this scene and it has given me some ideas for a “fail” that’s on my easel right now. One comment about painting and talking at the same time- we use to think that the more multi-tasking we do the better. But they have found that’s not true. We should focus on one thing at a time. It’s better for our brains. So it has nothing to do with getting older and I’m amazed that you can do it at all. Anyway, I love your philosophy and it’s really helping me out of my slump! Thanks so much!
Thanks Ann, I do find that some days the commentary comes more easily than others. I’ve been a bit down about this and that this week and I can’t help it reflecting in my words but next week will be much better! Thanks so much for your support and comments, much appreciated xxx
Bravo! Clever and you showed us how to improve a piece. That is just as important as one that all went as we hoped! Always always learn with every one of your videos. XOXOX❤️❤️❤️
Fabulous Diane! Thank you so much! I loved it before you outlined everything in black. But the black really did make it POP!! And your stick trees are very cool! I love the whole thing!
I love this painting, it feels peaceful and soothing to me. Thank you Diane. P.s. I have loved every painting you have done. I don't imagine it is easy to talk paint at the same time, but you do it and I am glad for it.
I often learn something while watching you. Today, I also learned that you are extremely critical of self, stop it. You are clever and talented. Thank you for sharing
It’s true, maybe it’s a bad habit, I tend to think of it as being realistic, I know I am far from being an expert watercolourist or an expert teacher. But it doesn’t help for me to criticise myself. Some of us experience a great deal of criticism during our lives, especially English people, and echoing that criticism can become a habit. I don’t know if it’s the same in your world. There are days when I forget to overcome it. Thank you for reminding me to keep a sense of perspective.
@@DianeAntoneStudio I’m an Aussie and my ancestors mainly Scottish. I grew up with the “nothing was good enough”. Very hard to overcome that level of criticism and added to that then the learned self criticism which occurs, taken a long time to stop the self brain chatter. You are great, and do great, obviously just needed a reminder 💖
I love it! I was disappointed every time you said you didn't like because I'm a newbie and thought I'd be satisfied but you kept making it better and better! Thanks much for sharing.
Thank you! You too! It might have been the roof expanding, it clicks and taps as the metal expands and contracts… Thanks so much for commenting, so glad you enjoyed it!
This is brilliant. I love it! 😊❤ Oh, I finally got my kuretake tambi nouveau paints! I've been waiting since Mar for these. I hope you will be using them through the fall. Thanks Diane 😊❤
Pretty whimsical Bavarian village. I have read The Forsytye Saga by John Galsworthy three times! It is a trilogy of three charming books that follows the life of a family from Edwardian times till beginning of the 29th century . I’ve see the TV series as well, but I’ll take a book any day. However, I do love good tv, so thanks for the info. Thank you for your clever village as well!
About the time you said this was a "disahster" (I love your accent!) I was feeling blue because the houses where I live are all boring, and mostly unattractive, look-alikes. They don't even have the charm of chimneys. But it made me think that I should try a view from my front window. Or my back door. There must be something there worth looking at! You lifted my spirits today, as usual.
Love this, so relaxing and I loved it before you thought you had to fix it! Funny the military in SC, USA also chose Wednesday to do their flyovers, lol.thank you!
Love this folksy art! I save everything that I paint as reference to look back on to see, if any, growth. They can't all be masterpieces.... Thank you for what you do AND remember Grandma Moses! Love her works and got to see some of her originals once! Never too old!
I liked this, Diane….it reminds me somewhat of a ‘Folk Art’…ish type of style. There is an artist named Natasha Newton on YT that you may have heard of and this reminded me of her. She is a young artist….very sweet and humble, and sometimes she talks about favourite art books that have inspired her. I recently bought two beautiful books , “Cozy Days, The Art of Iraville”, and “Imagine a Forest”, by Dinara Mirtalipova which is also a really gorgeous book featuring the author’s designs and inspirations for enchanting folk art. Both books are of excellent quality and presentation and quite different from anything I have previously bought. Yes….’Stage Fright’ just about sums it up, and I had never thought of it in that way before, even tho’ I had tried to analyse it…..but you are spot on with that description ! 💕💕
When I stayed in London for a month in 2007, I stayed on Trevor Place, in a below ground/basement room in a Georgian townhouse around the corner from Montepelier Square where some of the Forsytes "lived" - a lovely area with houses covered in walls of wisteria. Tickled me no end. (Sounds like you and I are of the same generation - I'm an American but soaked up all those British series on TV and literature like a big sponge. So I felt quite a home over there - mystified a bit but loving it. Especially the museums!) The US AF flies (low) over my home all the time - I'm in their flight line (the international airport's too).
Ah, Soames lived in Montpellier Square - how wonderful London was in those days - it has changed a lot since then though and even since 2007. There was so much great tv back then wasn’t there!!!
Diane, I love this! What a cheerful autrum village you've created and because you've so carefully demonstrated the process I'm going to give this a go. Thank you for not missing a step on your tutorials, I rely on you to help me sketch. On a smaller scale, these would make stunning Thanksgiving cards. Thank you for the inspiration.
I love the whimsical trees, so cute. And again I really think your houses fitted right in and are adorably brilliant. The only thing I would've loved to see was the purple mountains majesty and a little more snow. But I found the painting as a whole so very cozy and fun. Thank you so much. As always I enjoyed this tremendously and look forward to your next painting. XOXOJANE
Fun to watch you as you go at it! Reminds how the light changes colors as it bounces off of the "Rimrocks" that surround our city. At times it changes everything to gold. Plus Montana sunsets blaze in our sunset skies. I enjoyed this segment a lot. Right now we are enjoying a giant orange moon. 🌻
As a Dane, I was looking forward to hear, what you would say about hygge. But then I thought that everything you do on this channel is pure hygge. To do something that makes you and others happy. Actuallly, Diane, you could be danish. ❤️🇩🇰
Hi Ulla, thanks so much for your lovely comment! I think I probably do have Danish blood, and one of my oldest friends is Danish… I love the concept of Hygge - and do try to follow the principles in my videos and paintings xxx I’ll be expanding on this in the next video! Thanks again and sending hugs!
@@DianeAntoneStudio i'd like to think we're a kinder people today than when we ravaged britain in the viking age. 😂 I will be looking forward to more hygge next week. 🥰
I think it’s quite lovely - up close and from a distance. :) It’s all a matter of perspective I suppose - I know my art disasters are way less presentable than this, and I think it’s a lovely scene you created. May my disasters come out as good as yours! Haha. :)
I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it. The whimsical paintings are beautiful and the colours are gorgeous. Very autumnal. I’ve subscribed. 😊 Just a side note……’I, Claudius’ was first shown in the UK in 1976. My most favourite classic series of all time.
Beautifully painted and the colours are gorgeous. I think I will be looking for that white pen soon too it looks so much brighter than the signo brand.
This little village absolutely glows in the sunlight, Diane. Don’t know how you create such lovely pieces, time and again - performance anxiety paralyses me in the privacy of my own home, never mind the very public social media world! In gratitude and admiration for all you do.
Thanks Cathy, your kind perceptive comment means a great deal to me, you are so right! Thanks so much for commenting, so glad you enjoyed it!
@@DianeAntoneStudio Do you ever sleep, Dianne?? It must be past midnight where you are! Please look after yourself as you look after us.

This is NOT a disaster! I love it! Also agree, it is hard to paint and talk at the same time. But I'm glad you do it.
This is the loveliest "disaster" I've ever seen. The whimsy and playfulness brought me such joy to watch!

Oh yes, Peyton Place was not on the tv in our house, but my mum had a copy of one of the books which I wasn’t allowed to read!
If I could do something like you, I’d be overwhelmed. It’s is beautiful 😍
You can do it!
This was a lovely piece as it was. I believe I liked it better before the black.
No piece of art us a disaster,if nothing else it's an exercise in learning

so out standing.
Everything you create ends up generating or radiating a sense of happiness. So delightful to watch it being created and feel the output of the positive energy.
Thank you.
This is my first time to do a painting like this. An i have painted in every medium. Iam 77 Years old an i love this
Love your little village, very sweet.
"Fall over Friday". I almost busted a gut laughing. Then I realized, yes, I feel that!
LOL! 4:30pm on Friday is the end!!
Cute I like fall over fri.
Awwe, I'm so glad your Rooster made it home!! I'm going to try this. I made a background already from your last forest.
Oh goodness, my husband gets so frustrated when I am concentrating I CAN NOT talk at all. I appreciate this video because it was fun.

It's a perfect illustration for a book of Grimm's Fairy tales

Whimsical is always fun! It’s not a disaster, i think the black and white pens did the trick. Thanks for the inspiration and enjoy the weekend!
No, it turned out okay in the end! Thanks so much for watching! Have a great weekend!
I followed along and painted my own village! It was so much fun! ❤
Wonderful!
I like it! Many times I find more joy in the process than in the end product. And that’s ok with me.
My 23th. For someone who wants to lay down and grome you did a great and looooong job painting an atmospheric autumly piece. You used quite a lot of materials and in the end you where not sure if you liked it. You even grumbled asking yourself being to old 😅😅. I liked the underpainting with all the fitting colors. Also the moment where you sad you didn't like your painting and went on. All you added afterwards made it better I think. Have a nice day Wim 😊
This one was hard work! But in the end it was okay and the sketch has been very popular, many people have painted it, so it’s all ok!
Love love love it. They are definitely my type of houses that I can draw. The only type! 😜 thank you for this wonderful tutorial. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 😀 they are the best sort, childlike but not childish!
Diane !!! I love This!!!! Thank You!!! Thank you for all of your time in sharing this lovely art process!!!! I will keep this close!!!

Great fall therapy. So correct that this form of play is fun, relaxing and lovely. Thanks so much again.M

Yes….’Stage Fright’ just about sums it up, and I had never thought of it in that way before, even tho’ I had tried to analyse it…..but you are spot on with that description !

This is SO incredible! Beautiful!
When I stayed in London for a month in 2007, I stayed on Trevor Place, in a below ground/basement room in a Georgian townhouse around the corner from Montepelier Square where some of the Forsytes "lived" - a lovely area with houses covered in walls of wisteria. Tickled me no end. (Sounds like you and I are of the same generation - I'm an American but soaked up all those British series on TV and literature like a big sponge. So I felt quite a home over there - mystified a bit but loving it. Especially the museums!) The US AF flies (low) over my home all the time - I'm in their flight line (the international airport's too).
Ah, Soames lived in Montpellier Square - how wonderful London was in those days - it has changed a lot since then though and even since 2007. There was so much great tv back then wasn’t there!!!
This is so fun and I can’t wait to do this, I love watercolor and work daily with it.
Diane, I love this! What a cheerful autrum village you've created and because you've so carefully demonstrated the process I'm going to give this a go. Thank you for not missing a step on your tutorials, I rely on you to help me sketch. On a smaller scale, these would make stunning Thanksgiving cards. Thank you for the inspiration.
OMG, I love it. It's beautiful. Your creativity always shows 👍🏼
Thanks so much 😊 Thanks so much for commenting, so glad you enjoyed it!
I love the whimsical trees, so cute. And again I really think your houses fitted right in and are adorably brilliant. The only thing I would've loved to see was the purple mountains majesty and a little more snow. But I found the painting as a whole so very cozy and fun. Thank you so much. As always I enjoyed this tremendously and look forward to your next painting. XOXOJANE
Thank you so much! That would be a great addition, maybe I’ll add that later! Thanks so much for commenting, so glad you enjoyed it!
Fun to watch you as you go at it! Reminds how the light changes colors as it bounces off of the "Rimrocks" that surround our city. At times it changes everything to gold. Plus Montana sunsets blaze in our sunset skies. I enjoyed this segment a lot. Right now we are enjoying a giant orange moon. 🌻
As a Dane, I was looking forward to hear, what you would say about hygge. But then I thought that everything you do on this channel is pure hygge. To do something that makes you and others happy. Actuallly, Diane, you could be danish. ❤️🇩🇰
Hi Ulla, thanks so much for your lovely comment! I think I probably do have Danish blood, and one of my oldest friends is Danish… I love the concept of Hygge - and do try to follow the principles in my videos and paintings xxx I’ll be expanding on this in the next video! Thanks again and sending hugs!
@@DianeAntoneStudio i'd like to think we're a kinder people today than when we ravaged britain in the viking age. 😂 I will be looking forward to more hygge next week. 🥰
I like how every layer adds depth and interest, without losing coherence. It really does all come together!
This was so fun to watch. Can’t wait to give it a go!
I think it’s quite lovely - up close and from a distance. :) It’s all a matter of perspective I suppose - I know my art disasters are way less presentable than this, and I think it’s a lovely scene you created. May my disasters come out as good as yours! Haha. :)
Oh, I adored the Forsythe Saga back in the sixties! I had two babies and lived in a small dusty town. It gave me a view of the world beyond me.
My favourite paint, Kuretake, yeah! 😊
I love the colours the details and the subject of this picture! 💕
Thank you so much!
It's so cute and colorful! 🩷🧡💛🤎 maybe some birds flying in the sky area would be good. 😊
Great idea!!
I love this painting! You are so talented.
I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it. The whimsical paintings are beautiful and the colours are gorgeous. Very autumnal. I’ve subscribed. 😊
Just a side note……’I, Claudius’ was first shown in the UK in 1976. My most favourite classic series of all time.
Thank you so much for subscribing and for your support. So glad you enjoyed your visit and I hope you continue to enjoy ❤️
Love this so much. Colors are SO vibrant 😊
Lovely! Like comfort food for the spirit.

Very helpful rescuing operation and lesson in not giving up. Thanks Diane, and also for the incentive to buy some new brushes.
You are so welcome!
Beautifully painted and the colours are gorgeous. I think I will be looking for that white pen soon too it looks so much brighter than the signo brand.
I wish my disasters looked that good haha! Love it!
