Welcome to the Thoughtful Dots RU-vid channel by Demi Davidson. I have always been drawn to the beauty of mandalas and find so much peace and tranquility within the symmetry and sacred geometry of their design. Mandalas are a sacred symbol used for meditation, prayer, healing and art therapy. Painting mandalas has brought me a great sense of peace, balance and mindfulness and I hope I can pass this gift along to you with my videos!
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 ;)
After getting frustrated by my brushstrokes, I took your advice and moved my wrist back. I was apprehensive as I feel like it would give me less control but it absolutely worked! I was really having a hard time with one side and it made both sides better. No loss of control. So happy. =)
Yes, I did it!! Thank you Demi! This definitely made it all click for me. Wrist placement especially and my thanks to the person who commented on using a wrist rest!! 🥰
Hi, Demi, Yes, do more lives on RU-vid ! This one is beautiful. An idea is to show this finished Mandala at the start of your next live, so we can all see how it turned out!🤗🌸❤️ Thanks, Carol
I am a mixed media artist using polymer clay and resin pieces and now I’m going to start using this medium thank you for sharing your beautiful work and excellent knowledge ❤
Missed watching it live. Few years back I thought it's so boring to keep dotting single dot at a time but past few months I am hooked to it. I am still in a learning and practicing phase and I have learnt a lot from watching your videos. It is such a good idea to keep a pattern book. I am so glad you have started free sessions again on RU-vid. Thanks Demi
I've always wondered about the storage after use. Do you put that plastic sleeve back on the brush? I've done that, but it seems to make loose bristles that mess up my paint strokes. Am I doing something wrong, or is the sleeve just for shipping?
Missed this live, but I'm loving following along at my own pace and taking in all your words of wisdom. All your work is so beautiful! I'm loving the colours of this piece and thanks to your brush set that I recently received, my brushstrokes are really improving!!
Hi..... You mandalas are amazing. I want to practise frm ur vdos but may I please know what colours u use? And do u mix and take out the shades or u have every shades?
