I love the real time tutorials. That way I can paint along, see your process, corrections & always learn something new from the info you share. Really love this spring flower, so very pretty. I love watching you create, it’s so relaxing & informative. Thank you so much!! 🌸
Most appreciated that you’ve taken this time for the RUclipsrs. You were generous with your time/ teaching. 4 years ago this is what was done, now either those dotters do not dot anymore or the ones who still do dot, they do not take the time as in the past. So you have my gratitude for you sharing a tutorial on “RUclips” rather than just the patreon.. I do understand that you are spending your time with teaching those of us who enjoys your “Quality Work” (time is money) I enjoy your art work & enjoy how you present yourself… (oh mighty teacher 😂) Some of the things you have said in this tutorial, gave me a few more knowledgeable actions to practice also made me wake up and not to worry about being to the dot as the teacher has made. I’ll hush up and just say Thank you for being the person you are & sharing your knowledge with the many of us.
Love watching full tutorials. I learn more watching patterns being repeated. I take a photo of every piece I do. As far as individual patterns, instead of a book, I have an album on my phone. They can always be accessed no matter where I am. Yup, I back them up too. 😂
I love the longer tutorials, so filled with new info. If people don't want to spend 2 hours, they can speed it up or skip parts, or do it in sessions. TY
Don’t change and add music and all that….this is sooo relaxing and helpful! Glad you are doing things just like this fellow introvert that thinks out loud and goes with the flow ;)
Thank you for the way you teach. That center dot and the first ring is always the most challenging for me. I appreciate your expressing your struggles as well. Thank you.
I think you have the best tutorials on RUclips, for beginners, you take the time to explain everything perfectly, so easy to follow along, so many other rush through everything...I started dotting about a month and a half ago after watching one of your tutorials, I have done 5 do far wish I could post the photos. I'm addicted lol.
I'm loving the real time thing.. main part is no background music, so that I can enjoy actually what's going on and experience the calmness which you were speaking about and which I guess is the main point to be able to experience the stillnes.
Demi Just want to THANK YOU for helping me with my OBSESSION that everything must be perfect. I make my life very difficult and frustrating because I can't ever let myself finish something if it's not "right". I have driven myself to tears over it this is a personality problem with me. BUT I LOVE how you address this and say IT'S OK to not be perfect and IT'S OK to keep moving on with project. Thank you for these tutorials Demi you are a wonderful teacher😊🤗 LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA 🐨 💞 🦎
Fun tutorial. Lovely mandala. I’m glad I’m not the only one that has a problem with a large center dot LOL I appreciate you still doing the RUclips videos. I don’t have the extra money to join the other site everyone seems to be moving to. Thanks again Demi
I was so thrilled to see a real time tutorial rather than just shorts. Any of us can pause, speed up or rewind to see anything that you are doing on a true time tutorial so please please please continue to do these. I love your work I am inspired by everything you do, and I really would love to see more of your tutorials. One other thing is just something from me, but I probably will never do a 36 inch mandala or probably not even a 24 inch mandala. I am about to start the largest that I’ve ever done and that is a 16 inch. So those are intimidating to me and I would love to see some smaller 12, 14 or 16 inch Mandalas. Thank you so much everything you do is appreciated and I marvel at your talent. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I am glad you are enjoying! Anything larger than 10" will be taught over on Patreon or sold as a course! I am planning a 15" class over on Patreon soon!
I absolutely LOVE this tutorial! I gave my mom who is 90, this piece with an easel on Mother’s Day. I’m also giving one to my sister in law for her birthday next Tuesday. I’m also making one for my girlfriend too. So pretty! Thank you!! I will then make one for MYSELF, lol!
Love you real time tutorials!! They are so good and so relaxing to watch and hear your calm voice. You are so talented! Thank you for these great lessons to learn.
Your tutorials are AWESOME😊 Love the no music, the small chi-chat, which is all helpful info and tips. You have such a wonderful talent. Thanks for sharing. As a beginner, I have learned so much from you. Best tutorials I have ever found 💐
I seriously can't thank u enough for your tutorials..but unable to find much time with my two cute babies right now...keep up ur good work, i love every work of urs, its awesome, love from India❤
Dear Demi! I really appreciate your real-time tutorial!🙏 I am not a complete beginner in dot painting, but the brush stroke technique is new to me. Recently, I started practicing. Thank you very much for the information and tips you give in the video, so it's really easy to follow the painting process! I just bought your Brushstrokes workshop, I'm sure it will help me a lot in making even more beautiful mandalas! I'm following you from Hungary!😀
It’s so interesting that you refer to your lines as vertical and horizontal. It seems that rays and concentric rings or longitudinal and latitudinal would be much more descriptive.
Thank you! Right now the practice sheets are available on my Patreon or they are included in my online workshops. I am currently trying to figure out a way to add them to my website!
It’s so pretty but very frustrated. How is it I use the same size circle, same tools and always end up with too much space at the end. This one was 1/2 inch. So afraid to take the master class and have the same thing happen. 😢 mine went in the trash. I’ll try again
I try to explain in most of my tutorials that this will happen. Instead of trying to get things exactly the same you need to loosen up a bit and learn the skills to be able to adapt and improvise. 1 tool can give 20+ different size dots depending on many factors including how much paint you load on your tool, how much pressure you use etc. It is rare that even with step-by-step guidance that yours will come out exactly the same. I think letting go of the expectation that it will come out identical will ease some frustration. Use each tutorial as a lesson in learning new patterns and techniques and then incorporate them into your own unique creation! Good luck ❤
Demi..love this cheerful happy pattern .. the size of the purple dotting tool is ?..l missed it while watching and thanks for sharing in real time ..💕...P.s..your brush stoke class was excellent really enjoyed it
Grazie per questo video. Vorrei avere per cortesia alcune informazioni perché sono italiana e non capisco tutto. Innanzitutto la base su cui lavora è legno? Io uso i colori acrilici ma non quelli che usa lei perché li trovo tanto liquidi, i suoi sono molto belli e "cremosi". Inoltre vorrei sapere se non usa acqua per diluire il colore e per mantenerlo morbido. Io aggiungo qualche goccia d'acqua, altrimenti mi si asciuga presto. Il pennello è di pelo sintetico? La salvietta pampers di cosa è bagnata? Alla fine del lavoro non usa nessun tipo di vernice? Io ne uso una uso a base d'acqua che mi dà un risultato un po' più brillante. La ringrazio se mi darà una risposta. Naturalmente i suoi lavori sono meravigliosi!!!❤ un saluto da Udine (nord Italia - vicino Venezia) Grazie infinite Gianna

Beautiful. Could this hang outside on a wall ?
It’s so interesting that you refer to your lines as vertical and horizontal.
It seems that rays and concentric rings or longitudinal and latitudinal would be much more descriptive.
Eh, I like to keep it simple 🫶🏻
You are so incredibly good at that! I heard that you had a printable practice sheet. I've been looking for it...help.
Thank you! Right now the practice sheets are available on my Patreon or they are included in my online workshops. I am currently trying to figure out a way to add them to my website!

I can’t get the Amazon store link to work, I’ve tried it from a couple of different videos. I’m looking for the red handled brushes
hmmm weird. I just tested it and it seems to work. Try going to my website www.thoughtfuldots.com and click on the "Tools I Use" tab.
Que lentitud !! Encima no entiendo el idioma no está la traducción
Your voice is so soothing. And I absolutely love your work! So beautiful.
