This is my first Christmas as a widow. My sweet adult kids gathered around and there were many moments of laughter. It turns out joy and grief can sit at the same table.
Hi Diane. Your videos are very soothing. I often watch them over and over. Sometimes I paint along, sometimes I just play them in the background. Thank you.
It was a quiet Christmas, just me and my adult son. No gifts this year, just spending time together. We watched a movie and laughed some. Still recovering from a surgery on my throat, so eating is a bit difficult, but it is healing and should be good for after the new year. I love the colors you used on this one, I will have to invest in the Meeden set, I have the Art Neveau set and I do enjoy it. Have a happy and safe New Year dear one.
That's very pretty having the dark red and gold over the marbled pink background! On Christmas Day it was just my husband and me. We don't have kids, and aren't geographically close to any relatives. We went out to coffee, and generally had a nice day. Today we went to an annual post-Christmas lunch in downtown Los Angeles with some friends.
I love that. Just recently seeing paintings with that Saran wrap (US here) technique but haven't gotten around to trying it yet. Will do soon. Thanks so much for sharing this vid. Happy New Year, Diane. I pray it's a much better one for all!
Diane, who was a friend you lost around November, who helped you a lot during Covid? You knew him from the Internet. He was a minister if I remember well. Thank you! You mentioned him in one of your videos earlier.
So thats mark making among other things..very beautiful thank-you..And a very merry Christmas to you and yours and a very Happy 2025..and thank-you for being a inspiration to me ..i am coming up on my first year watercoloring..
I see many people had a quiet Christmas 🎄 including me! I spent my Christmas 🎄 with my daughter and her husband. They invited me over for ham dinner. It was good 👍. My other daughter and I just got back from Kentucky moving the rest of my things down to Florida. Fun fun 😁. At least I got to see my grandson and my other daughter 💙. Nice painting I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
This was quite fun and relaxing. Another RUclips channel that does a lot of mark making with the same art supplies (gold ink, white dots, Kuretake paints, stencils) is Denise Love from Austin, Tx. She makes 'getting loose' with art a lot of fun as well.
There is an acrylic gouache now. So you have to be mindful when you are buying gouache. I believe the acrylic gouache can be lifted until it is dry. When it is dry, you are stuck with it . I actually have one tube of jaune brilliant in acrylic gouache.
We had a full house and lots of food and good cheer. I was worn out from all the month long activities involving our small growing church. Costumes for Kids Arts and crafts and decorations. Christmas night My Daughter and Daughter-in-law sat down at a he kitchen table and Doodled with all my new a litter Pens,Acrylic pens an metallic WC paints. It was most enjoyable whined down to a very crazy day with all 5 of my grand kids.
Hi Diane, well I liked the technique and colours but wasn’t liking those circles top right or the birds. Yes flowers better than the Chelsea buns. I think after the background would be nice a tree fantasy and a shape of a person in the middle of the paper. Anyway at least you got me thinking. I love your tech. What you have is various areas but I think leaves and flowers would have been lovely. I always have something to say don’t I… sorry. I was on my own Christmas and my fridge was broken so I had to have a steak for dinner and I usually love my Christmas dinner. I was happy enough. I only had sprouts and steak. Not great! :/ Happy New Year in advance Diane :) Ooh I had mash as well. Your paintings always end up great so maybe I should zip it until the end 😆
Yes we had a quiet Christmas and my best gift was a few days with minimal pain… hoping my new regimen of supplements from my Doctor is working for me! You are good medicine in a different way, Diane… you pull my mind and eyes away from whatever the problem is! Happy New Year! 🎊
I'm not good at not having structure, but I do try ! I have that same gold ink that you got for Christmas, I use with regular dip pens 🖊️ gold settles so you have to stir or shake often. It is very nice! We too had a quiet Christmas !
love the pink!💙 I had a pretty quite Christmas too! Didn't do much not as exciting as when the kids were little. They are all grown (6 of them) and we are scattered all over the states. Even the grands are big now and too busy for the 'OLD" folks. So sad:-(
You are not alone, there are many of us, for a whole load of different reasons. For some, Christmas time brings great sorrow. It’s ok not to be like most other people, or what society dictates we should do.
Oh good. I got that gold link for Christmas too!! Someone said they use a ruling pen. Another used the bent drawing implement generally used for car paint touch ups. On Amazon/ Jackson's. Or a brush. Love this painting. I'm a pink nerd!!
😥😥one of my besties passed early Christmas morning. I live 1700 miles away- haven’t seen her since October. I had painted your Angels - framed it and sent it to her -hoping the magic of angels would comfort her. 20:46 So it was a quiet reflective day. The new year is coming - can’t be any worse
I would love to know where you found tge tray to hold your kuretake paint pans? Not the heart tray, the square white one holding all your paints. Thank you

So sorry for your loss, Eileen😥
This was my 2nd Christmas with my husband gone and it's very very hard. Still in depression
I'm so sorry for your loss! It sounds like you have a wonderful family and I'm glad they were there for you.
@trina7410 Prayers dear sister! ❤
@@trina7410 prayers for your peace❤️

I love the composition and the colours!
Love the pinks and all the embellishments and the ongoing process ❣️Our Christmas was very quiet. We all seem to be bogged down.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your family member and your chickens.

This would look really pretty turned into placemats or serviettes. Wishing you & your family a lovely 2025.
Wow. The color combination is beautiful.
Thanks so much! Happy New Year!!

Merry Christmas, Diane. I'm always interested in the gifts Tamsin gives you. I splurged on the brass pencil sharpener from another Christmas.
Oh, that’s great to hear! I’m not sure how the ink is going to work yet - haven’t found the right pen for it yet. Keep watching!
Christmas Day was just another day for me. Sounds awful but it’s true

Thanks Pauline, hope you did too xxx

Oh, how sad to lose someone on Christmas. I'm sorry for your loss.
I would love to know where you found tge tray to hold your kuretake paint pans? Not the heart tray, the square white one holding all your paints. Thank you
Me too!!!🎉
I believe it is a lid from a palette or a box
❤love salt technique. So much fun. Pretty colors of pink, red and cream. The book you mention isn’t available on Amazon in US, but on abebooks is $54
I hope it wasn't one of your new chickens that died. In any case I feel sad for you. And yes there is Acrylic gouache now. Xx
Bonjour Diane
Je voulais vous dire que vous pouvez acheter des couleurs kuritake à l unité sur le site aquarelle et pinceau
Bonne journée
Lol that looks like my backward in Wyoming..lol
