I don't need more art supplies. I gotta keep repeating it. I love colorful goodies.
To answer your question, the full video was helpful. The cow is ridiculously adorable but I liked seeing you do the other stuff too.
I often have to remind myself of this with fountain pens and ink lately!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! It's hard to share the things that I'm not proud of, but I was glad there was a redemption arc (lol)!
Same.
I love seeing the two "failures" because it makes it so much more real. Thanks for that. And your highland calf is super-adorable. I want to squeeze it. ♥️
Thank you for watching, and for the supportive comment! I love when you test a supply because I know I'm going to get a test painting or two in the mix, so hearing that the misses were good to keep in means a lot coming from you, Prof! 🤗❤️❤️❤️🤗
Maggie, I am really glad that some of you are having this conversation. I'm deeply glad that you showed all of this, and that you told us truthfully how you felt as you went along.
It's raising a lot of expectations and causing a lot of despair to the point of giving up for many, many people, that so many ArtTubers only present their 'best' work. We never get to see the mistakes, or even the work in progress, so we never know that it happens, and so our expectations get all messed up. It's actually fraudulent misrepresentation! And they get away with it, and are encouraged to go on with it by the system.
I think that the chameleon was an incredibly difficult pose, and I couldn't work out what it was till you told us. On the other hand, as soon as you began on the cow, I had a huge grin on my face, because he was so adorable!!!!
Thank you!!!!
I'm so glad you're here for it!! My confidence in sharing my flubs is growing 🤣😂❤️🤗
@@CreatingCuteArt Keep going, Maggie - we appreciate it!
Maggie, yet again you find yourself in an existential crisis!
“Am I really just a bad artist and I’ve just gotten away with it all this time?”
So glad you persevered and Created Cute! As we all knew you would!
Thank you!!! It's so easy to doubt myself, so when I see a cute creature on the page I feel such relief! 🤣❤️🤗
I love including my mistakes in videos for exactly the reasons you said! Sometimes you struggle through and end up with something you like at the end, or start over! Or start something else entirely! All great options. Your highland cow turned out sooooo cute!!!
Thank you!! Your recent flying cow was awesome 🤗🤗🤗
@@CreatingCuteArt oh thank you!!! Are we both in the Cute Cow Club?? 🐄😁
Annie, I love watching your videos for your honesty, refreshing attitude and fun-ness. For showing us as it really is. We need more Annies and Maggies and the rest of this group of friends. Thanks for being one of them!
Oh my sweet friend!! You did an amazing job showing off these beautiful pastels from Arrtx!! I loved hearing your thought process, and completely understood! ;D I loved seeing what in your eyes were "mistakes". I think you should keep them, so you can see your progress! I often times I think my art is a mess and I'm embarrassed to show it. I especially had a hard time with new products from Paul Rubens and Arrtx, that I didn't know how to use (like oil Pastels). I was so excited to try them...but I was afraid I would let them down. But, from my comments others enjoyed seeing my process, and my mistakes/learning! You did a wonderful job, and I loved seeing you create the cute cow! Thanks for the shout out, I knew you would love the Acrylic Markers as much as I do! 💗💗💗
They really are great! I will probably eventually have them all 🤣🤗 Thank you for your kind and encouraging words about my efforts to learn this medium again! The pastels are gorgeous, I definitely just need more practice, and I completely agree about worrying about disappointing the brand when I love this brand! Thank you for the wonderful comment, Stephanie!
You have NO idea how excited I am for this! Been so interested in Soft Pastels! Super curious ❤
I think you'll like the discussion, too--very on topic for what we have been talking about lately!
@@CreatingCuteArt I just watched it in its entirety and had a smile on my face throughout the video! I love how you’re taking it all with humor and I applaud you that you didn’t delete the footage! Two things come to my mind: I think it’s only natural to hesitate when it comes to showing the … (gotta censor myself again), you know… the oopsies. But it helps so many. Secondly, I consider you to be a great artist and we’ve seen so much of you (so no matter what “failure” you present, we know what you are capable of). Yet: I think that colourful Chameleon was doomed to be a fail - and that’s not because of your skills! A colourful Chameleon, with all the reflective scales, colours of the rainbow, it’s absolutely unusual and awkward (yet still cute) anatomy, it is such a complex subject matter where every detail matters in order to make this fella even recognizable as what it is 😄 Trying a full shot of it on a small piece of paper, drawn with thick chunks of soft pastel, show me a person who could achieve that. With coloured pencils, yes, perhaps since you can go more detailed. This isn’t a medium for details or hyper realism in my opinion. It’s good as an additional mediums for backgrounds, for something more abstract, or more stylized - like your adorable calf! Happy you didn’t give up and I think you did a great job with the chameleons too, especially considering the limitations in control you have with this medium. Your message is so good: goes to show just trust your guts and do what you want ❤️ Oh, and thanks to this video I know this medium isn’t for me, maybe a few colours for smudging it into the background
How wonderful that you can learn that from the video, that is the ultimate goal! To hopefully help people see what is totally for them, and which items might not be for them so they can put their money where their heart is! Thank you for the awesome supportive comment!
It's so cool that they founs your past video and send you these supplies.
It was so flattering and lovely of them!
Thank you so much for keeping it real. I am trying so hard to learn art skills and I’m a complete newbie and it’s discouraging sometimes when you are self taught and using RUclips as a major reference/teaching tool and all you ever see is the beautiful perfect completed artworks. So thank you for having the courage to leave this footage in and to address the fact that everyone deals with failures at times and not everything comes out perfect every time. I did totally love the little cow baby at the end. He is absolutely adorable. 😊
I am so glad to hear that it's helpful to see the flubs in addition to the final pretty things!! Keep going, and enjoy the process my friend!
Thanks for showing all of your art, even those that weren't your favorite. Sometimes I have to make several crap pieces to get something I like. It's all part of the process.
Absolutely! The community here is so positive that I felt safe showing all the bumps!❤️
It is nice to see even the best make mistakes. Hope you get a chuckle out of this. I was feeding my animals lunch and listening. 2 are seniors that require medication so it gets complicated. I was so excited when you said you were painting a Highland "cat". I had never heard of the breed. When I saw your art-the light came on. He was absolutely adorable. I definitely come for the cute art- it always brightens my day.
Haha!! Well I'll have to do a cute cat soon, then. I think it's been over a year since I did my Christmas cat for the channel!
Thanks for sharing all the artwork. The last one was super adorable. It was neat that something with that texture and less realism really shows off the cuteness. Makes me want to try it in watercolor.
Yes! I do love the texture of it all (hence my obsession with granulating watercolor!!) 🤗❤️🤗
I'm glad you included all three pictures!
Thank you!!☺️🤭
To me, this was a fun and interesting video. And I really appreciate you sharing what, to you, were failure moments. Always seeing the amazing results of other artists can be really killing for the creative mind sometimes. Because not everything you make you're gonna be proud of, and that can be a real hard pill to swallow if you think you're alone in this. So thank you for keeping it real and taking us along in your explorations and being brave enough to to show it.
Thank you so much for this thoughtful and supportive comment! It is scary to put it out there for those very same reasons -- it can seem to me like I'm the only one having fails when all I see are wins. But that just made me more sure I had to bite the bullet and show everything. Eventually you make something you love and all the mess ups are so worth it!! 🤗❤️🤗
arrtx is really coming out with a lot of products lately. was definitely a fun watch, thank you! 🥰
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend!
No shame in throwing stuff out, it just be like that sometimes! Though for what its worth I thought the chameleons looked good! Since you struggled with showing off the colours, maybe the pose wasn't flattering?
That highland cow is SO cute, so fluffy
The pose was definitely a challenge! I did it one more time, in my sketchbook and with paint pens, and while it was getting better, it still didn't capture the fun cheekiness I was going for! I'm so glad you enjoyed! 🤗🤗🤗
My dear friend, you are wonderful and very talented
I enjoy seeing your cards and art very much
Because you are very creative
You deserve millions of subscribers❤😊
Oh my goodness, thank you so much!! What a sweet comment! 🤗❤️🤗
Thank you for sharing your process. I'm so intimidated by pastels. I have various brands and they remain unused, isolated in a drawer, scaring me every time I open that drawer. I should play with them with no expectations and see what I can do.
You can do it! As you can see, just push through any weirdness and you'll likely get to something you love!
Soft pastels are so hard to use, and I totally relate to having disastrous results when attempting artworks with them. Having said that, I thought the chameleon was pretty cute! 😂
Thank you, Becky!! They are super fun to use, I'm going to keep playing for sure!
Hi Maggie, I do mixed media and soft pastels is something I do enjoy. I have various pastel sets, I recently found out how to melt the soft pastels permanently with gloss medium. So perhaps that can help you with the Chameleons you did not like. You can use regular watercolor then add soft pastels as well. I am happy you choose to to show us all of your steps.
I definitely want to try using watercolor as a base and these pastels to layer on top. They have awesome texture!
I'll take the chameleon!
😂🤣
wonderful unboxing video! the painting looks really detailed and cute as always!
Thank you, Leila, and thanks for visiting!
nice sharing. very beautiful painting.
Thank you!
Love this nice video! My friend! Thanks for this great sharing!!!~~ take care and have a beautiful day!!!!
Thank you so much!!!🤗❤️🤗
Ohmygosh I enjoyed this so much, thank you!
Thank you for the kind comment! 🤗❤️
We now add a new adjective to your repertoire....may I suggest adventuresome - in addition to creative. I am not a fan of pastels and would not have watched unless it had come from one of my RUclips favs - you! Your review was great BTW. I appreciate the way you posted and your Highland Calf was adorable
Thank you!! I'm the same way, if Miranda or Sketches or Moni post a review, I'm watching even if I have no interest in the underlying supply. I'm so glad you enjoyed!!
I’ve been wanting to get some pastels but I cant decide if I want soft or oil pastels. Love the chameleon and love the calf!
Oil would probably be a bit easier to control! I love my neocolor ii water soluble the best, but I think that's because I'm such a watercolor girl 🤗❤️🤗
@@CreatingCuteArt I’ve been looking at the Neo colors. Do they layer over very good? Say if I want to layer it over acrylic gauche or over color pencils
@@mekagooden4915 they do well over acrylic and watercolor, I'm not sure about colored pencils, though! Sandi Hester uses a ton of supplies in layers and she uses the neocolor a bunch, so maybe you will see the pencil layering there? Good luck and enjoy!! 🤗🤗🤗
Ngl when you said you threw it away my first thought was, "what would Sandi Hester say!!" LOL. I'm sorry you had so many issues but I totally get it. Have you tried the Canson pastel paper? I think it really makes a difference. (At least to me.) The highland cattle made me think of the Bob's burgers episode where they're being chased on an island by an angry herd of highland cattle. Yours was adorbs.
Lol! I totally heard Sandi in my ear and did feel guilty as I threw it away. 🤗❤️🤗
I think the chameleon was cute! the pastels look like a really fun medium looking forward to see if you try them again :)
I will be continuing to play with them, especially when I just want to test out low pressure sketches/color combos/compositions before starting a full finalized piece!
@@CreatingCuteArt looking forward to it! 😄
