So happy to see this. I just got my brushes delivered yesterday and I’m excited to try them on my swooshes. This is so helpful even for someone like me who has been dotting for a couple of years. I could never get those swooshes so evenly the way you do so hoping these brushes will help. I was using shorter ones. Thank you Demi for not only sharing your art but you knowledge with us. It’s greatly appreciated.
I am going to order the brushes and give it a go. I feel like I am ready for the next level on my mandalas. Thanks for the tutorial! You are truly a pro!
Thanks for this wonderful tutorial. It’s not only beautiful and clear to understand but also it is so relaxing to watch how you create those wonderful swooshes!
Thank you so much!!! This answers all the questions I had. Appreciate how generous you are sharing tips/tricks and tools you use and the dedication and time you put into your art. You are amazingly talented ❤
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for telling me about this video. I'm saving to my saved videos so I can watch it again and again. You videos are so helpful..thank you
I'm jealous. The swooshing is making me nuts. I always use Deco Art Americana. Might be my brush. When use lighter paint on black, the black shows thru. This is beautiful.
Thank you so so much for making these videos. They are greatly appreciated. Swooshes have been giving me fits so I am hoping that these new tools will be just what I needed. I really love your work
Hi 👋🏾 Demi… thanks ☺️ for uploading this video, it is very detailed and informative!! I would like to ask how to you like to position yourself while creating your large mandalas such as this? I know you said kind of positioning to the right helps with these swooshes. I love 💗 your work and I’ve been so inspired to create this art 🎨!! 🙏🏾💜💯
Hi Demi… I just came across your very helpful demonstration, so that you for that! I was wondering if hand positioning and wrist movement are important factors in making swooshes. It feels like mine get kind of “stuck” when I get to the curve of the swoosh and that’s where I make a mess 🫤
Love the tutorial! Learning so much from you!! I have a question though:: You wash your brush and use it again when it’s wet?? Just dip it into the paint and use it again? Don’t you get bubbles on your artwork ??
I’m new to dot painting - all I’ve done were a few Christmas ornaments. Wondering what happens to the guide marks - it looks as though they remain somewhat visible on the finished piece.
Hi Demi, I keep watching this tutorial and try to do what you do. I’ve got the same brushes and paint, I’m practicing, but still the magic is not really happening…. I’ve seen you on patreon, do you go into more depth in your lessons on Patreon in regards to getting these swooshes happening? Is the Patreon a monthly fee? Thanks! Phoenicia

I am not able to find 8 piece taklon brushes on Amazon. Love your tutorial!
Love the tutorial! Learning so much from you!!
I have a question though::
You wash your brush and use it again when it’s wet?? Just dip it into the paint and use it again? Don’t you get bubbles on your artwork ??

hello, do you dry off brush every time you rinse in cup?

Thank you for the tutorial! Where do you buy your paint pots? They look so sturdy.

Beautiful xxxooo
Thank you so much!!
Is Patreon the only place to see your tutorials now?
Yes!
@@thoughtfuldots Thats to bad. I will miss hearing you calmiing voice and following your tutorials. Thank you for teaching me so much!!!
I've been practicing the b rush swooshes, and it DOES take some practice to get the feel of the pressure you need. But I'll get it.
Yesss you WILL get it!!! 🙏🏻♥️
Thank you !!

@@thoughtfuldots sorry you think I was being demanding
WOW!!
@@thoughtfuldots Thank you for sharing this with us! It’s much appreciated ❤🙏🏻
I seem to get a line down the middle. Is my paint to thick?
Yeap, i get the same problem. I added medium to make paint less thick but it didn’t help. Even with minimal pressure my swooshes are “streaky”. 😢
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤩
I have such a hard time with swooshes😔
