About my brushes
I have always bought my favorite brushes from Drawell direct from Japan. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. www.drawell.co....

The rain sounds like the waves hitting the rocks under your llighthouse ❤
Sometimes it feels like we are at Sea being lashed by the waves. Sometimes I can smell seaweed in the air! But we are 50 miles from the coast.
For a moment I even thought you were making wave music on purpose until I remembered you’re having a lot of rain! Ha!
My sister in Newport, RI mailed me an ornament made there for Christmas, and the rush and woosh of the salty brine air when I opened her gift was like a letter from home! Nearly made me cry it was so powerful! And that was a tiny jewel box! @@DianeAntoneStudio
You don’t know how happy I am to have you as a teacher, Diane! A glowy lighthouse is right up my alley. Going to try this one later this afternoon
Your rainy day there was a perfect sound effect for waves crashing against the shore where the lighthouse stands!
Yes, it was, wasn’t it!
Wonderfully moody! I love it❤
Glad you like it!
Thanks Diane for a beautiful painting. Very atmospheric.
Thanks very much, Liz!
Wow, just wow! How impactful! This is so realistic and colorful. Great job!!!
Thank you so much! That’s very kind of you! I’m glad you enjoyed it ❤️
I’ve wondered about your little dishes too!
Beautiful Diane. Love love your landscapes❤️
That's really great Diane. Very appropriate this wet and windy week, with such high seas! Definitely in the mood to try this one this evening 😊
Wonderful! Hope you enjoy it, it was fun!
Just lovely Diane. I am so ready to get back to painting. This will be just the trick. A lovely challenge for me. Blessings to you dear friend
Have fun! Speak soon!!!
Love it!
So glad!
I just try to go ahead and hit the "like" button.
I know I'm gonna like it.
Thanks so much Cathy, I really appreciate that! Hopefully you did!
@@DianeAntoneStudio I did!
I love lighthouses.
I love it, it looks sooo good 😊😊😊
Thank you 😋
One of my favorites I must say!!! The sound of the rain is perfect background for this painting!!! Thank you as always!
Thank you so much 😀 we really could do with a bit less rain though!
Absolutely stunning!
My 207.th a very convincing lighthouse in a winter scene beautiful done. Thanks for keep up the effort to go on in 2024 with all your initiatives. I enjoy every bit of it 😊wim
Things I have thought too difficult or beyond my skill level, you make fun and incredibly accessible! I enjoy your classes so much and because of that I am painting more, my confidence is increasing and it's even helped my state of mind as the classes bring me comfort. Such a wonderful experience painting with you. Thanks so much!
You are so welcome! I’m so happy for you!!!
What a lovely choice of subject...I have been painting birds and Christmasy things. I sketched it and will try tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your pleasant , informative style!,,,,,🎉
This is inspiring…I think I will give it a try today!
Also I’m excited to have an email from your brush company and my order is in transit!! YEA!!
Yay! Thank you for letting me know!
Wonderful!
Many thanks!
Love your relaxed approach to painting....
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you !!!
Love this scene! Excited to try this one :)
Hope you enjoy it!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
That's Great, Diane - I'm going to do this one cos it'll make a fab birthday card for my Dad! Last year i painted him a desert island with a UFO and the year before i did a ship at sea. I got in a bit of a muddle with the rigging - which i mentioned to him and Dad thought was hilarious having been in the Royal Navy and knowing about that stuff!! Anyway, Thank you so much for another brilliant tutorial.
Happy New Year to you n family!
Love, Mel xx 🍰🌻
Love to watch you paint landscapes! You really are such a great artist and although my attempt will never approximate yours, I love to watch you paint and learn the decisions that you make along the way.
Thank you so much 😀 I’m so glad you enjoy watching and I’m sure your paintings are also lovely!
Thanks! Merry Christmas!
Thanks you so much Julie for your kindness xxx
Beautiful picture! I love lighthouses!
Nicely rendered today.
Very nice Diane. I love lighthouses! I wl definitely try. Thank you ❤
You are so welcome and I hope you enjoy it!
Happy New Year, Diane.
Oh I love this painting. And am really enjoying this season of light in the darkness. Love hearing the rain, as here in Australia it’s hot.. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Bev, could you possibly send us a bit of your sunshine? I don’t know when we’ve had a wetter winter
Diane this is so, so pretty!
So pretty, I was very inspired to paint this today. At first my sky was grey and cloudy (and puddly) then I made it into night and that fixed it. 👌
Enjoyed painting this with you!
Thanks again!
I am excited to try this painting. I have to admit, I’m tired of flowers.
Fantastic!!! Oh how I love this painting! The lighting is perfect and the rocks are perfect! The red adds just the right highlight to the painting and I love the mood of the painting. Of course I have a special love of lighthouses because my dear uncle who passed a few years ago collected and loved them and the symbol of them. Thank you so much Diane! "Bob's Your Uncle" is right! :)
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your input and I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. It’s a little different from what I normally do, and I’m very pleased to be branching out a bit!
Thanks Diane, it looks great. Dee
Thanks so much!
I live by a few lighthouses. This is great.
I've been wanting to try something other than flowers, birds and Christmas. This is perfect! I love, love, love how yours turned out and I am going to give it a go later this evening. Thank you, and Happy New Year to you and Tamsin!
Love the video today, Diane. Indigo is one of my favourite colours, and I don’t use it enough. I find it quite intimidating in watercolour painting, but it’s perfect for this subject of light and darkness. I will definitely give it a try soon. Thank you!
Happy New Year Diane. I love this one as I live by the sea. Also loving the new design of your RUclips intro, very nice!
Love this one!❤
So glad!
Happy New Year, Diane🎉
I'm not an artist for sure, but I always love doing birds and light houses. For some reason, those 2 subjects always come out well in painting and soft pastels.
Thank you for the lead on the Japanese paint brushes. I really like Holbein. I find anything Japanese is really done well.
Happy new year!! And you’re right about that!😀
Lovely. Will try this today! Thank you.
So excited to do this!
Beautiful
Love this painting! I missed your paint bowls as well! Happy New Year!
Happy new year!
Well I hope you are satisfied, Diane! You have single-handedly destroyed my enjoyment of casually viewing other watercolorists! I get bored by and even annoyed at them so quickly. This never used to be true! Honestly! Are you proud of yourself? 😂 Oh, and by the way, this lighthouse is awesome! A nice break from Christmas cards and flowers although I did enjoy every one of the cards and flower paintings!
Thank you, Gemma! You had me worried for a minute! I thought I had done something wrong! So glad that you are enjoying my videos, and I take your point about other peoples. I think you’ll enjoy this lighthouse, and I’ve got some more ideas coming up soon that you might like too!!
Hehe. I hope I didn’t give you too much of a scare. You’ll never get a complaint from me! I’m old school, like you; if I don’t have something nice to say, I’d rather not say anything at all. 😂❤😊. Thanks for the many, many enjoyable experiences!
My first attempt is woefully BAD! I'll give it another go tomorrow.
Happy New Year Diane! Your light house painting is beautiful. Thank you for showing us the light and dark techniques. Stunning! Ill look forward to giving this one a go!
Thanks so much!
This is beautiful. At one time we lived on the eastern seaboard of the US and there were light houses everywhere up and down the coast.....I loved them!! What is the 2nd daily challenge please, you said the 'cats eye'? I'm sorry but I have missed something. Thanks much for sharing
Thanks!
Thanks so much Martha!
Have never seen a light house altho I've lived near both coasts. Watching yours emerge on the rocks kept me engaged as does your process always. I am thinking how I can adapt this to the Rimrocks along the Yelliwstone River. which is beautifully dramatic in the evening. Definitely need to work on my palette first. I like to mix as I go, too. Will watch this session again. Thank you for motivating me.
Thanks so much Connie! I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. I have not actually in real life. Seen a Canadian lighthouse either! I have seen plenty in England and here in France. They are not quite the same but close! The rocks are always fun to do as they always turn out better than you expect! Have fun!
I like your challenge. Just an idea, I am also on Patreon. When you plan a challenge could you give us a week or so ahead so we could be prepared?
🐨👍
Where do you find your ceramic ramekins to mix your paint! Love your technique! Thank you for sharing!👍🧑🎨💕
Very nice. I enjoy this type of teaching video. Diane what is it I hear you say sometimes ... something uncle? I can't quite catch what it is. I'm sure it's an English expression I've never heard!
Started this during a spell of vertigo. Actually coming out pretty good. Hard to get the shape right tho. 😂
Thanks so much! Sorry to hear about the vertigo Gloria, that’s horrible, hope you’re feeling better now!
Is the Cats Eyes (?) Day 2 of Light out of Darkness on the website or just for patreon?
There isn’t a video for the cat’s eyes. I’m doing about one a week and they’re all on RUclips 😀
Bonjour Diane , j aime bien ton phare et toute ton aquarelle sauf la neige sur l arbre , et pourquoi un phare canadien alors qu il y en tant en bretagne ? Je l aime quand meme te fache pas avec moi je te taquine , je vais faire un phare marseillais voila ! Bises ma chere amie a bientot
Merci Francoise, c’est gentil, et tu as raison, nous en avons bcp ici mais la majorité de mes amis artistes sont d’outre atlantique ! J’espère que ton phare marseillaise se passe bien!
@@DianeAntoneStudio je nai pas encore commence car c est toi qui moi donne l idee , j aime beaucoup te regarder mais je deteste copier ce que l l autre fait si je regarde c est juste pour me juger moi meme sur ce que je fais car maintenant que je suis seule je n ai plus personne avec qui partager .

Bises mon amie , ca m a fait tres plaisir ton petit mot
