I'm a visual artist and photographer who loves to teach and encourage others to make art from the heart. Make and create what makes you happy. I discovered watercolors later on in my art journey and fell in love. This channel is a combination of beginner tutorials and sharing some projects I enjoyed making that I hope will inspire others to do the same.
**I have always been an artist but recently made a big leap. I left my high level Administration job at a College (of 18 years) and shifted from part time artist to FULL TIME. I am so excited to share that journey with you.
Shana, I haven’t commented on every video but I have been following faithfully and have been so enjoying this journey!! Thank you! Thank you for all the teaching, the humour and showing us that mistakes aren’t the end of the world! I am having so much fun!! Thank you again!! ❤😊
I love landscapes and although I’ve done more of your florals, I’ve been trying more of the landscapes. I never quite stick the landing so to speak, but that’s part of learning!
Stunning, absolutely love dragon flies, you have captured this one beautifully, just starting to dabble in water colour and having fun with it, love the video and your explanations with what and how you create, tks
Thank you for your videos, your instruction and your kindness. Although watercolor painting is hard for me, I am improving with repeated practice. Thanks.😊
I've tried this as an absolute beginner who never held a brush before. My painting turns out really amazing (not as good as yours but obviously hahah). Thank you for the tutorial. Definitely subscribed to this channel!
Thanks Shana! That was really useful video, all the info needed for a beginner and for more experienced painters is excellent. I love the tearing paper tip, as well as the kneading eraser! Great stuff.
I love hydrangeas but unfortunately they don't grow well here in my country. I love, love how you paint them in so much detail and appreciate how patient you are in showing us your process. How about painting caladiums sometime? Thank you for all your videos. Can't wait for the next one.
5 min in and already liking this video because your being brave and sharing your art journals that are not perfects. Thank you. Keeping it real . I moved on to etchr the small journal just stress me out. Beautiful roses. I also find if i make one page to swatch colors or to test brushes it helps me ease into a journal
How can I send you a pic of this one that i did? mine is dark. i didnt paint it exactly like yours but i did follow color scheme and outline. i just painted it different. if that makes sense. im not real happy with it. would love to show you.
Shana, Just found you a few days ago. I love everything about you, your voice, your content, the speed at which you work, the calmness of you and your setting! So glad I found you!
Wonderful lesson on painting hydrangeas! But also OBSERVATION on colors and shapes that are really there. Sometimes. Hurry too much or paint what I think I see rather than what is in front of me. 😱
