    What a gentle soul you are Emma. I am a beginner watercolorist and your video was so non intimidating and encouraging and has made me feel like I can make small steps forward. I found the sniffles quite charming made me feel like you were here at my dining room table in Sydney explaining things to me. Well done. Im going to watch all your videos and practice. Thank you for sharing. xxx

    Videos like this encourage me to actually try w/c'ing ... Instead of just doing what I've done so far: watch tons of posts & tutorials on RUclips & buy all the supplies I need to get started. Thanks for the step-by-step walk thru, making me certain of 2 things: my first attempt won't be as good as what i just witnessed, and I can start (with the assumption I'll most likely get better with practice/eventually make MY w/c creations instead of just copying someone else's steps). Thanks for motivating me to Just Do It. ;-)

    Thank you Emma we cannot take for granted you and many others who share their art and abilities to the public. It is a lot of work and only passion for what you do is the reason I believe you do it. Thanks again and please try to ignore the negative comments. My daughter thought me “ if you do not have anything nice to say is better to not say anything”. Wise words

    I do apologize for all of the sniffing in this and other videos. It was a very long winter and to be honest, I didn’t even notice during editing. I edit all my videos while taking care of my 1 year old son and I try my best to get all of these videos out for you weekly. I’m trying my best to be a full time mom while sharing my watercolour passion with you. Thank you to the people who have KINDLY pointed this out to me. To the others who have decided to point this out in an unkind way, think twice before you type. I’m just trying to create a positive and creative space for people to feel free of judgement and gain confidence. I suggest you try and do the same. So much love to all of the positive people with their words of love and kindness.

    Oh my gosh I noticed the sniffling but gee whiz people sniffle. Its life. I might be used to it since my hubby sniffles all day long. Lol anywho, I have never painted anything. I'm getting supplies slowly and watching anyone who offers their wonderful talent online. I want to learn. I'm 71 yrs of age. I hope it's not too late for me to pick up painting with watercolors. My artistic granddaughter says it's the hardest to do. And she can paint and draw ,like a pro. I love your work. You explain with simple instructions. I will be picking up a brush as soon as I get my paints. If I do well and I love this I will indulge in more expensive items. Thank you for helping us beginners to learn, to understand and to feel the beauty in painting. I will continue to watch and learn with you even if your sniffles dont get better. Although I do hope if its allergies something can help you as they are very much a pain to live with.
