Can I try to do your same ideas on my channel I'm in love with your works.. and my channel is so so small so I need to try your works on my channel can I.. 😕❤❤
Thank you! This was my first work. I enjoyed it
Happy Saturday! In today's video I'll show you how to make these easy DIY bookmarks that so many of you requested!! You will see different stages of the painting throughout the painting process so feel free to pick one that you like the best! I wanted to have it rather dark than too light, so it's really up to you what you like! :)
And there goes my favourite set of bookmarks ever!
You always make it look so easy! Whereas us, newbie's paintings, look so muddy and a mess (until the end)
Aww it's just important to know what colors go well together!
Is it a must u use water color paper coz I only have drawing book papers
@@markkariuki1497 yes, with watercolors you want to use watercolor paper as it made especially for that
I’m probably going to make like 10 of these and keep 9 to myself 😂😂
Haha! Same!😂😂
Hehe 😂
U mean 10!
Lmao same
Gift?😅I am making this for myself!
Aww haha!
Still a gift -for yourself, isn't it?
Me too
@@HOPEfullBoi01 hah love ur name
shruti sharma you I hi
I have one suggestion: you can use something (maybe paper) to cover the lower part of your drawing (everything except the sky) so that the paint you use for the stars doesn't fall anywhere else :) Btw, I really love the way you use tape for border. It makes everything soooooooo much more beautiful 💖
Thank you! Yeah I usually do that but here I wanted to have this effect everywhere!
She is an artist she knows what to do don't teach her
@@smita1740 it's not like that bad thinking
Seeing you makes me think that there ARE people who really wants to inspire and teach us! You are really inspiring..I can never draw or paint like you but i will try!Ps sorry for being late! I was outside😃
❤
I'm so glad you've posted this! I've always struggled with painting the northern lights and this has really helped!
Aww yayy!
Everytime, I need to get the idea from here only...I am really so fond of it!!
I wish I could paint like YOU
I love you makoccino
U have inspired me not only to paint in watercolor but I've also been inspired to use oil pastel too😍😍
I absolutely agree, A white paper cant turn into a masterpiece in a minute, and i used to do that, but now i don't! I absolutely love your channel and you're the only one i take my watercolour lessons from...
Believe me, this is only because of you that I am getting my interest back in Watercolors. I left it thinking its not my cup of tea. But now I feel O underrated myself as well as youtube. Thanks for the amazing contents. Keep growing like never before 🔥🔥❤️❤️.
I have been watching your videos non stop lately. I am just beginning on watercolouring. I have bought all the (not cheap) supplies and haven't even started my first painting yet. I am scared for some reason. That I will give up half way. So this video helped me a lot. My dad loves northern light...he had planned a trip to sweden to see it, but got sick and he is 77...so I don't think he will be able to go again. I want to paint it for him as a gift. Wish me luck!!! 🤞
Thank you for a great channel. 💕
Why does your videos come to the perfect time for me ? My bookmark broke and you show me this ?!
Magic
I found it really helpful especially the things that you have mentioned about the struggles in painting. Just like in your other video. I'm a beginner at watercolor painting and sometimes feel bad at myself for not painting good enough as others. But I understood it much better since you have talked about the same experiences. 😊
I was trying to figure out why I keep coming back to makoccino videos...then it hit me...you reminded me so much of the calmness of Michelle Phan...now that she's back...I see it clearly now... ❤️❤️
awww
I'm going to finish all my watercolors by doing this
Great tutorial, Mako! I really like the changes you’ve made to your channel the last couple of months. I started following you over a year ago & it’s crazy that you have over 1.5 million subscribers now! In this video I like that you repeat the importance of waiting for the finished painting & how it won’t look “good” or “right” until you’ve gone through several layers. It can be tough for newbies or remember that. 😎 Thanks!
Awww thank you so much!
I've been wanting to draw the northern lights since forever... This is BEAUTIFUL!!! ❤
Thank you so much!
These are beautiful
I am a beginner, but when I was just a beginning beginner, I did several bird pictures (or partials). I got discouraged and tossed them before finishing. Finally, I decided to finish one even if it stunk. When I did the eye (last because it was darkest) my painting transformed. It was so surprising.
When I don't like where a painting is going (happens a lot) I remind myself of how this medium transforms near the end of the work. I make sure to finish before deciding to toss things out.
so lovely!! thank you for taking so much of your time to teach us!!! I'm a brand new beginner. I'll get my water colors tomorrow. and I purchased a small water color journal 3x5 inch to start with! I'm so excited! I want to paint wild flowers and add a Bible verse for each painting. again, thank you so much Makoccino!! 🥰❤
I love your channel before i dont know how to paint and now everyone feel jealous of my paintings thank you very very much 😍😍😘😘😘😘
it looks so realistic
The outcome was excellent !
From tomorrow my exams are starting and i am still watching yor videos. Lots of love ❤
I love all your tutorials..but I'm LOVING your sweater in this video!! Very pretty and looks toasty warm😍😄
i cant wait to make these! i love everything related to northern lights, the best aesthetic!
thank you so much for sharing. I tried it and came out really well
You made it look so easy I haven’t done art now for years but I think I’ll try this first thank you for sharing keep safe x❤️🙏🏻🇬🇧
You make it look so easy specially when you say it looks messy but for me it looks already amazing 🤷🏻♀️💕
If you break everything into small steps, everything is possible! :)
Amazing video and I love the the northern light painting. The transition from one color to another was really smooth and a treat to watch. Video covering small details like a painting can look bit odd than end result in early phases and people should not give up was a bonus besides all the information shared on northern lights painting itself. With all honesty the bookmarks were fabulous but the painting as whole was so amazing that I might have not cut it into pieces as it was so amazing. Another great video in terms of information and art quality which is going to be very helpful in laying foundation for upcoming artists in future. Keep up the great work Mako :D
Aww thank you so much for watching my videos so thoroughly, I appreciate that!
The end result is always worth watching 😍😍and your voice is so soothing Mako😊👌
Thank you!
I love watercolors, because on start it look total terrible, but in end is it a master pice!
it looks like vertical puzzle as well great work
those bookmarks are amazing.... 👌i really love it😍😍😍
Its amazing makoccino! It's like a magical place and I have even painted along with you it turned out so good!!😊💖🌺
I'll definitely do this! I love the Northern lights

Mako just replied to my comment today is my happiest day 😍😀😄
Thank you for the tutorial, Mako.
I will try this tech. When I drew the northern light, it looks weird because the colour was pale, I think I should do some layers like you do. 😀
I may just have to try this
I always wait for your videos😊
Dear Mako, Happy Saturday!
Thank you for your new video! Those bookmarks look really cool ♥
Thank you so much!
Wow. Good ideas to give this holiday season. ❤❤❤

𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒏𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌. 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒓 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕.
Thank you!
you explain everything so perfectly... i love this channel!
WOW!!!!!!
Love the video. I am gonna paint this right now. I was gonna paint something then saw this video. So this is perfect.
Yay!!
Yay
How can you put water on the paint without activating it
Pink will also look good I guess? ? ☺
Art tour of 2019....will be great
so beautiful! thank you!
Thank you so much for this video.
Wow! Makoccino u r the best!!!!! I happened to just come across ur channel and I keep watching ur videos since u r so amazing!!!
omg its beautiful
It's so beautiful....thank you for the wonderful idea mako 😘
Do you have a video regarding travel kit? The minimalist stuff you pack around on travels? Or something you can suggest?
You are such an incredible artist! You art is incredible I love it! You are so talented. Love you ❤️😍
just the video i was looking for😂😂 i was finding a gift idea :P
Hey mako your tutorials are awesome and i love to follow them. I would love to see something about wall murals from you some day. Good luck 😘
Great bookmarks!! Love it.
This was fantastic! Thank you, God bless!
Oh my gosh so beautiful
Thank you so much!
Thank you so so much for this video! I'd tried a different technique to paint the northern lights for a family member just a few days ago, and I was so frustrated I ripped the paper and threw it out! (Especially annoying because I'd done a lovely northern lights gift art for a friend three years ago... so why was I all 'Grrr' this time??!) But you've inspired & reinvigorated me and it's coming along nicely right now! I'm letting it air dry between layers :)
Aww yayy! I think the key is just to know what colors to place next to each other to avoid muddy results! And also to not get discouraged by the messy process 😂
No one:
Me: songs into the unknown when I saw the thumbnail
sings*
I sing All Is Found instead
oh my god... that was so good... im cryinggg
So beautiful !
A great video Mako. Should the paint be of creamy consistency? Looking forward to Saturdays lesson. Sad to finish the course.
This is sooooo amazing!!!! You are a great artist makoccino 🤩🤗😊
