    I am an ICU head nurse and work a 24-on 24-off shift and find myself lucky if I don’t get called in on my off hours. I find your voice to be most relaxing and soothing and just what I need when I get home to decompress. I am a beginner in the truest sense of the word and my husband has promised me a Bona Fide art studio when all this madness is over. Your videos have me humming Christmas carols and they have been acknowledged by my patients. Thank you so much and God Bless.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to write to me and for your kind words!
      It always warms my heart to hear that my art and videos help others find their own creative voice. How fantastic that ART has brought you joy in these troubling and chaotic times; it is such a fulfilling and healthy way to externalize our emotions. The power of making marks on paper is so underestimated - it has such a positive impact on our well-being. Not to mention the joy that can be shared by humming a song or two :)
      So grateful for the efforts you and your fellow nurses take to keep us safe. Wishing you all the best!

      These are people browsing yt just to give thumbs down. Has nothing to do with the content. They probably don't even watch... Just ignore it. 😉

    • @susanphend2189
      @susanphend2189 3 года назад +6

      Some people enjoy making life difficult for others. My view is that their dislikes say everything about them and absolutely nothing about the content creator or that particular video. A video like this is about as far from controversial as you can get. CC does beautiful and inspirational work!

      @christinesharland8478 3 года назад +9

      I also hate when people dislike videos. The work that goes into most videos is worth a like in itself even if you don't like the content. . Don't flipping watch it if you don't like it. Ha

      I find that some people need to have a storm about them for some reason. They are the keepers of bad vibes, and they toss around the vibes to stir things up. Everything is more exciting for them when there is chaos. It is sad really, they do not seem happy. Try not to be angry with them, that just puts you into the middle of their chaos. Or, maybe some people do not like cute little pictures of pretty snow scenes at night..

    I don’t have black watercolor paper or card stock so I used black acryla gouache for the background. Then I used gansai white metallic, white posca paint pen, and Gellyroll glitter and metallic gel pens in gold and silver. They turned out well considering I had to make the background black.

    • @hildaschrock5773
      @hildaschrock5773 3 года назад +2

      I found I had to substitute some of the supplies to make these card and they turned out well considering. I tried to buy glitter pen via the link. They are unavailable and vendors not sure when they will be back in stock.

    • @fransaunders6252
      @fransaunders6252 3 года назад +3

      @@hildaschrock5773 Hi Hilda, I found some sparkle pens at my local arts and crafts store (Michaels) in my area. Also have seen them in a local art supply store that caters just artists of any age and level but not so much crafty things. It has taken me awhile to find the pens I want. I think they are pretty popular, so I try to check on their stock when I can. Best of luck, have fun, joy and peace.

    I enjoyed watching you paint the city scape and the comments you made. Sometimes I feel ‘stuck’ in decision making when I paint. I don’t want to be as controlled with my work. Listening to what’s on your mind while you paint helps greatly.

This may be my last Christmas and I really wanted to make a statement that say "me" to my family and friends. They make me feel peacefully, warm and intimate as well as. Just the message I wanted to send to them. Thank you do much for this gift, without words.

    I love your cards. I have done some this year that are simple as well. I found that doing the tree-topper was easiest to do the cross section first, then coming in from the diagonal, not quite as long as the cross section, only to the center stopping just short of it. That way I didn't get the extra ink in the center and it looked a bit cleaner. Just a thought.

    Those are absolutely stunning!! The addition of the frame on the card base really makes that small focal piece fit better. I've got to try this! And yes you're absolutely right that don't black watercolor paper is fragile. I'm going to try some like mint tape or tape designed to be used with foil and see if that will help at all but as you said as long as it's even who's to say it wasn't a design element! 😄

    Simple and lovely, and I absolutely love the Kremer white gold watercolor. So used to you using the Kremer gold and the Kremer white gold is gorgeous on the black paper. Will be adding it to my wish list.
