@@ArtJourneyUK Sounds like you had very good reasons to be worn out. I am surprised they left just one person to manage by themselves like that. You must be really good at what you do but still by yourself has to be really hard even if you aren't very busy and you seem to always be really busy.
@@colorcrazy2944 ahh I am very good at what I do... lol that sounds big headed but I'm Head of Operations, have been with the company 12 years and trained all the other managers, so I know how to do their jobs. It's OK when a couple are off for a week or two (which *always* happens in August) but it was 3 weeks this year and at the end of that time, with 10-12 hour days, I need two weeks off 😆
@@ArtJourneyUK I am not sure if I had heard your title but I knew you had trained people, and you have gotten gifts for doing a good job so no I don't think it's big headed. I just really didn't know quite how to word what I wanted to say. But no matter how good you are, 3 weeks alone was bad and I am glad you got all that time at the beach!
@@ArtJourneyUK me too I couldn’t resist to get it black widows work very nice on the paper I’m not to good with polychromos I can never get a smooth blend 😊💖
I liked your Chrystl Vogl pages in August so much you inspired me to buy the book ❤️ Lovely pencil colouring Lily, I think your pencil play dates are helping you work out how the pencils lay down best 😉
Nice work Lily. Loving my Lyra pencils they go well with the FC poly ones they have nice light colours they don't have. I have bought the Christl Vogl new book was watching for her Xmas one for ages Yay! Don't know about the Chromaflow yet still on the fence 🤔don't think I'd buy them again but I would the Lyra's to go with the FC polys... Look forward to your next colour stash hugs to Wee Robbie XX🤗
Lovely pages lily you do lovely pencil work your pages look so smooth and so nicely blended would love to see a pencil play date or review type video in the chromaflow I have them and I like them ish but I don't really know how I feel about them lol I will have to use them more I do like some of the colours and I think they are decent pencils except for some of the colours especially one of the lighter pinky colours is very hard and doesn't have much colour pay off don't know if I have a dud but would love to hear your opinion 💜💜💜💜
I love my Polys; they blend beautifully, the colors are amazing and thus the results are gorgeous. Yes it takes longer but I am so happy with the pages I do with them.
Love your big girls colouring with pencils🤩 I think we've swapped places, I've been colouring mandalaaahhhs with fine liners, don't shout but I destroy my amazon books (gasp) and photocopy them onto better paper, plus if it's a fav I do the same pic over and over in different colourways. Have you got Snowflakes from Kameliya Angelkova? There's some good ones for just two colours in that book. 💜
Ooo no, not tried Snowflakes... I don't think. I had a Creative Haven Snowflake book and the lines were verrrry thin lol. Just about to PM you on IG 🧩🥰
Good afternoon Lilly , amazed at how much you completed I have started two pages in the last four weeks due to Parish Council business so feel inadequate in colouring terms now
Thank you for sharing your beautiful pages. The sea air obviously does wonders 🥰
Ooo could be! Although it's more having the time to colour while off work... but sea air definitely helps! 🥰
Your pages in the Christl Vogls book are just gorgeous! You can tell you were really enjoying yourself while you were doing them!

I Love that frog, looks like he is dancing, that book is beautiful
Your colouring is so good, Extremely Talented. X
It's such a cute book, I really like it! 🥰

Aww thanks Chelsea! Yeah, I will do a Chromaflow playdate as I'm not 100% about them, they're expensive for what they are! 🥰
@@ArtJourneyUK yay look forward to it 💜💜
Liked all your pages. I’ve been thinking about how we progress in our coloring also. Some of my beginning books I look at and am not kind to myself😂😂
Yes, I'm the same! It's all progression isn't it?
I love my Polys; they blend beautifully, the colors are amazing and thus the results are gorgeous. Yes it takes longer but I am so happy with the pages I do with them.
They are lovely to use 🥰

It was over two months Peter! And it's not a competition, it's just a hobby 🥰
@@ArtJourneyUK Hi Lily on the good side I have managed to colour just as things were getting on top mentally which helps enormously.
