    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.

    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.

      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

    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.

  • @surquhart3020

    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.

  • @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 RUclips. 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!

  • @shannonw6604
    @shannonw6604 Год назад

    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.

  • @Pamgria
    @Pamgria 2 года назад +22

    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. ❤️

  • @NoniewithanO
    @NoniewithanO 2 года назад +1

    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.

  • @sys.6978
    @sys.6978 2 года назад +2

    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

    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 RUclips 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.

    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.

  • @idlewildwind
    @idlewildwind 2 года назад

    Tree of lights, rocks and boulders, and 5 useful tips were all very inspiring for me, but the four seasons of wonky rectangles with plant doodles are definitely the ones that made me think I could actually make something myself instead of just watching others. Thank you for your fabulous art and your calm, encouraging voice!

    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 🙏🌹🌹🌹

Your encouragement, your beginner projects and your ever positive voice overs gave me confidence to try and I always enjoyed the outcome. I agree that the water color doodle ones were such fun. However, my all time favorite was the blobs of paint that eventually turned into flowers! I am going to try this one because it looks really relaxing! Your saying is right on. Thank you for the influence you have had on so many in your very gentle way.

    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 RUclips. 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.

I'm a 72 yr old great grandmother whose had a cornea transplant about a year ago and didn't think I'd be able to paint again even though the transplant was successful and my vision is slowly returning. I've watched all of your videos on RUclips over and over again and love them all. Your voice is soothing and your art makes me happy! Thank you for inspiring me to paint again!

    I actually picked up a brush after the painting a plant pot. It was timely and I wanted to paint a pot and a design that was more abstract. However, being a beginner at watercolors the videos with the small colored square with doodles in them have been the most inspiring; like I can do THAT.

    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.

    LOVE your quote paintings!! For me, I found you about 3 years ago looking for quick & easy watercolor florals. You did not disappoint!! I've learned so much from you & your videos & owe my love for watercolor to you! Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with us!! I too love GOLD, and Silver, and my entire 24-set of metallic paints... It's all your fault! 😂😍

    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!

    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!

    The flower doodle videos you did in 2020! I honestly was inspired to make dozens of cards because of them. And during Covid I made sets of 10 cards in clear boxes and gave them to friends.. I also wrote to my mom and my sister every week with a new card. It was an amazing inspiration. On the day my mum took Ill in September ,2021, she called me to say that more beautiful cards had arrived. She died three days later. And when I was tidying her house , I found all of the cards I’d sent. All of them inspired by your sweet flower doodles. Thank yo so much. They brought so much joy.

    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!

    Doodling with gold and white (I first watched it two years ago) was my inspiration to start to doodle with water colors. Your videos have inspired me to many different creations. Just like Alice I enjoy your smooth and calming voice. I have discovered when I doodle I think of nothing else and it relaxes me and calms my mental state. Since I started doodling I also watch the outside world with different eyes. I constantly see something that I like to try to paint. Thank you for continuing to post.

    I loved the video from about a year ago - keep it simple & use repetition. It was random leaf shapes with doodling and it was just lovely. It wads fun & peaceful to do & I so love the final product. The color palette was gorgeous. I have followed many of your videos & always enjoy them. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge & talent.

  • @molchmolchmolchmolch
    @molchmolchmolchmolch 2 года назад +3

    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)

  • @gayleh3508

    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. ❤️🇨🇦

    I think that your art and watching you as you create your art has shown me that I don’t have to be so controlled and anxious when I draw everything out in pencil first and then erase because it’s not drawn perfectly. I draw my pictures and then I painstakingly color them in. I learned that we can just allow the brushes and the colors be the drawing. Not just draw and paint it in. I hope I said that so it made some sense.

    I have been watching your creative journey for years so it is difficult to select just one video. The one that stands out the most for my is the ‘balance in abstract’ video. I have a pencil case with a few art supplies next to me in my family room…after the first minute I pulled out the supplies and followed along in my bullet journal. Not the best paper for watercolours but I have to say when I leaf through that page always makes me smile. 💕🐞💕

    I am fairly new to watercolor painting. I have found that watching RUclips channels inspire and also teaches me. The most helpful video was my first tutorial on "how to paint a variegated background with watercolors". I had been struggling with how to start this type of background. Your excellent idea is to put down some splatter on the page and begin there. What a revelation !!!! This style of art has changed my way of thinking. I can doodle something be it just a leaf over some type of loose background. I have difficulty painting florals I was inspired by the video " the easiest flowers I've ever painted!". It was so easy and looked amazing. I encourage you to continue making such inspiring and helpful videos. Thank you !!!

    Actually Catherine, I’m inspired by just about everything you do. I put my brushes away to have adventures with needle and thread and junk journaling for awhile, but I’m back again. I think though, I’m really inspired by your watercolor doodles - and especially the ones on the grid, 9 squares. I can’t watch one of those videos and NOT pick up the brush. I love them. And like you, gotta have some gold - it IS my go to neutral in any medium.
    I love your work ! Would welcome more doodles! Thank you for ALL the inspiration. Hugs 🤗🤗🤗

    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.
