While I was painting this, I was thinking of you guys constantly! I so hope you love your cardinals, and I'll be if you pick up the brush, you'll surprise yourself with some practice ❤️❤️ A heart for each of you! ❤️❤️
I didn't know a male and female cardinal were different in colors. Very nice painting, I will try to remember to keep them soft next time I try painting some birds. Awesome tutorial.
Hello from Australia. It’s raining here this morning. I don’t think we have cardinals here. I know you hear of it a lot in America. I believe many people think of them when remembering their loved ones in heaven. Lovely tutorial. Beautiful painting. The way you make them come to life is truly amazing. From one step to the next. 😳
No, sadly you don't have any cardinals. Based on my research there are three kinds, all found only in the Americas with this brilliant red one in the northeastern US. Actually I didn't know about the belief that a cardinal sighting was like a loved one visiting or at least warm thoughts of one until I made this video. How odd, but then I lived for 30 years outside the US, S Korea mostly. It's fun to learn about birds and animals in foreign places ... and then about the traditions or beliefs about them! I find your fairy wren absolutely fascinating! Such a petite little bird, and so hilariously permiscuous 😂 I appreciate your comments, Australia, especially on my most popular painting to date 🥰🥰 Cheryl
hello my co artist thank you for watching my video .Your painting is really amazing ,gorgeous birds..I love the colors of the birds so realistic feathers. Very beautiful artwork. please stay connected
Ah so nice to 'see' the artist behind the camera. I love the narration and the explanation of each step and the story you tell as you paint. So relatable to anyone wanting to know how you cope with the challenges starting a painting from scratch. Look forward to seeing more videos soon. 😄🥰
Hugs, Paul! This is the painting we met over ages and ages ago, and yes, we've grown a long way since! Thanks for more stellar comments and hope we really dig into our niches and do what we really love ..... PAINT 🥰🥰🥰 !! Art hugs ❤️
Hi my friend! Cool videos you have. Interesting to watch. Keep making more videos and post them on RUclips! Well done! I like your video. You are a talented person. I like!
Dear Judy, this was one of my very first paintings, right after I fell in love with acrylics! You're so sweet, and I can't wait to find time to dive into your art as well! Giant hug 🌹
You have a very likeable personality. very friendly. i like your shining smile 😊 your cardinals are amazing! i love your painting and the legend about them 😍
And you, friend, are a keeper! I don't know what flower bush you were born under, 🌸 but you could charm the stingers off bees and are certainly cultivating a garden of very brilliant ideas 👍 You are becoming a legend! 😆🤩
Suprmom aka Roseann103! I'm so happy to connect with you here, and now that friends are starting to connect, I'll feel so much more comfortable talking to the stupid (should I say that?) camera!!! Thanks so much for the support ❤️😍❤️
Thank you so much, Drawing and Art! Yeah, this one took a while but my leopard took 7 hours! Very satisfying to paint though, as you so well know!!! 🤩🤩🤩
The cardinal pair is so beautiful...I am Watching this video again...the details are so wonderfully explained by you...you are truly a pleasure to hear ...it's from my heart👍👍👍👍👍 Need to complete my home duty for sometime... will watch continue your video after a few hours 👍👍💕👍
Beautiful 😍 painting 💐 Thank you for the in-depth video I’ve never seen the sync video tab come up before 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻THANKS AGAIN 🌹❤️ I might try this one. 😬 nervous 😉 I just started painting. Thank you for your trivia 😉 I never heard that part. My Grandmother always said it was good luck to have a Cardinal on your Christmas tree.
Hi Lynda, so excited you've taken up painting! It's something that sings to the soul, or LOL at least to mine! 😋🎨If you're wanting to paint this, I can send you an outline of the cardinal (PDF) so all you would have to do is trace it! Another person asked last week for a traceable too, which made me very happy! You can find my email in the "about" section! Warm thoughts and happy painting!!! 🥰🥰🥰Cheryl
This is one of my favourites of yours - So uch emotion coming from the birds and all of the warm colours work so well together - thanks for sharing - stay safe✨🌈✨🌈✨🌈
Many many thanks, dear Spectrum! You're such an inspiration that I'm working to get my descriptions created with time stamps! It's enervating to see the changes and development on my channel!!! Appreciate your comments always! 😊💛🥰
Many thanks, Baljeetdham! And I hope you have access to the free traceable. I uploaded it a few days ago but forgot to test the link out. Warm thoughts to you!!! 🥰
Thank you so much, Rick! This was my first (OK, and only) acrylic commission, but wow did I enjoy the process. And a very big warm thank you, Rick, for your warm comments! 🥰 Cheryl
Big thank you, Nica! And I have a chuckle for you. I actually looked up St Louis Cardinals because there are only three kinds of cardinals ...... so, OK, I'm not a baseball afficionado 🤣Feeling a bit pink in the cheeks right now 😜!
Wow, I really appreciate calling me a good teacher! I'm a teacher by profession, just not professionally in art ..... yet. You really made my day! Would love it if you subscribed, but then it's so irritating to always be asked, right? Anyway, your kind words are making me smile 🤩
Dear Donna! I'm so happy you're here and if the tutorial helps, then the stumble (LOL) was meant to be 🤩 Welcome, and I hope your Christmas is magical! 🥰Cheryl/TerraCotta
Hello Cheryl it's great to see you in the video my first time 😍♥️ and this tutorial was recommended from the feeds 😍😍 I really love this lovely couple Cardinal bird❤️❤️❤️so beautiful and sweet💕
Big smile! I tried showing my face in the early days but it was such a bother to set up my camera and arrange my ultra tiny apartment so I flatly gave up. If we do show our faces, it's been proven we get more views so I'm reconsidering the face shots again. But haha, my persona has been revealed 😋 Hugs, Najzla, and thanks for your comments on my most popular painting to date! 🥰🌹🌺
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and be so supportive! And seriously, if you have an animal preference for a future video, just drop a comment here and I'll add it to my growing list! 😍
Hi Cheryl, I just came across your channel and I still have got a lot of catching up to do but just wanted to say that your corner of the internet is absolutely beautiful 💙⭐✨
I was editing my next video when I saw your message come in, and wanted to leave and say thank you one the spot! But a big thank you now, Yana! And checked out yours and it is filled with softness and romance! 💗💗I very much appreciate your taking the time for giving the cyber hug! 🥰
Wow that's a detailed demonstration of the painting. By seeing this, I think you would do really good to go live. May be for simple artworks around 1hr or so. Have you tried any live sessions in past? 😊
No, but now that I'm in the states, as soon as I get a desk setup I do plan on going live, Just couldn't do it earlier as my apartment space was just toooooo small. Still working on how to do overhead filming and am thinking I'll have to build a frame .... it will get done (LOL, eventually) 😅 And thanks for the recommendation, Heema 😍
Hahaha, I so love when Pigmenters come here, and when you replied the first time, I suspected you as a colorist! So what's your Pigment handle?! You know I'm going to visit you and "know" who you are too! ❣️❤️❣️ And thank you so much for your support and complement! 🥰
@@AnimalArtbyTerraCotta loved your naughty squirrel video as well. You’re an amazing artist! Your Pigment Gallery just blows my mind!!! Love your work!!
@@finallykeywest7470 Awww! And they were so fun to paint! Yeah, digital painting is soooo easy with the undo button, but there's something more satisfying about physical painting. Do you paint -- non-digital of course ? 😄
Wow, Charles, I can't remember. I painted this over a year ago, but I just did look at the colors again and the dark red definitely has some burnt sienna and maybe a hint of cobalt. What I know I did is mix a pool of paints and then used that pool to mix further blends so I could get color transitions. Also I used a liberal amount of gel medium while layering. The medium looks opaque until it dries and then you get a transparent color on top and rather complex colors beneath. Not much help, I'm sorry, but if you have further questions, just ask and maybe I'll know the answer on that one 😄 Happy painting!" 🤗
Someone asked me a couple weeks ago for it but I must have trashed it since this was one of my earliest acrylics. If you can wait till the weekend, I can whip one together for you. Just send an email (posted under About on my channel) and I'll respond 🤗And thank you for asking! That's such a beautiful compliment 🥰
Me and my husband just got done watching your tutorial and we can’t believe how talented you are! We can’t do any of that.
While I was painting this, I was thinking of you guys constantly! I so hope you love your cardinals, and I'll be if you pick up the brush, you'll surprise yourself with some practice ❤️❤️ A heart for each of you! ❤️❤️
Birds look beautiful as they are real one sitting together. ❤️
Cardinals mate for life, and so they sit and watch the world together! You are very correct 🤩🤩🤩
great! I've seen more cardinals this year in our yard than ever before! They say a loved one is watching over!
Funny that I hear that after I move outside of the states and never growing up! Ah the irony 😄
Cardinals are so pretty!!! Thanks for sharing this!
You are so welcome, Val! And thanks for your visit between workouts 🤗
I didn't know a male and female cardinal were different in colors. Very nice painting, I will try to remember to keep them soft next time I try painting some birds. Awesome tutorial.
Big thank you! I didn't know that info either before painting but wanted to make the video a bit more interesting! Loving your many comments!!! 😀
You have the best explained and documented videos on youtube. I'll let it run until the end.
A beautiful compliment and the heart of a true friend! It's zen painting for sure 😄🎨

Many many thanks, Art Dinh! 🥰
Very beautiful painting, so nice. Lovely birds!!😍😍
Thank you so much, Blanca! 😀
Wow, this painting makes me want to pick up the brush again, wonderful!!
Ah, listen to the whispers of the paint brush ... it knows the music in your soul! LOL! Beautiful compliment, my friend! 🤩🤩🤩
