As a watercolor artist, and inspiring animator, I lost a lot of myself. I started using watercolor as a way to replace digital media, instead of embracing it like before, to meet demand. Watching this inspired me to go my own route, free from opinion, free from form. This is beautiful, inspiring, and free. Thank you.

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+AbnormallyYours I understand where you're coming from. I was pretty scared posting my material online actually. Abstract art is a bit out there...though this video is not "as abstract" some of the other ones. I figure, however, if I live once, I might as well do what makes me happy. Hahaha. So here we are. I'm so glad it's given you an invitation to be free and to express yourself. Go for it! And thank you for your kind words. They inspire ME to keep painting and make new videos. Lots of love to you my friend

@inthediamondsky 8 лет назад

+Coco Bee Art Thank you! I am also self taught, so there's just so much to learn... thank you. I hope that one day my art will grow to be as popular as yours. So that I can inspire. I can help others grow. Just as you have for me.

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+AbnormallyYours I feel ya. Thank you so your kind words! The mean so much to me. Courage, persistence, and heart my dear friend! Go for it! 💙❤💙

@meowool 8 лет назад

+AbnormallyYours I find watercolours to be so relaxing and calming, and you can just kinda let them take you on their own journey if you don't want to detail so much!

@AkiKater 8 лет назад

Thank you so so much for those kind of videos! You saved me from a massive art depression where I hated everything I created. Your little, adorable whale helped me so much to become...lighter. More relaxed. Just let it flow. I had watched this video months ago and just found it beautiful. But it didn't have a real impact until a few days ago. Before I had drawn something in watercolour and was immensely disappointed in my skills and myself. Then three nights ago I remembered this video and thought about giving it a try. I wanted to paint something from the sea too and in the end I had a beautiful, colorful shark sitting on the paper. It felt so good! Finally I was paintig with joy again! Yesterday I watched the video again and noticed how strong you influenced me for the better that I was crying over it. So, thank you. Thank you so much. You don't have a clue how much this video means to me but I hope I got it across a little. Love.

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

Trust me, your message left more than just a "little" impression on my heart. I'm completely speechless. All this is what I wish someone would have told me...I'm not sure at what point art became so it's fun only when...it's beautiful only if. I also feel an immediate sense to challenge myself to create even more, and even more impactful content. Thank YOU for sharing your thoughts with me. They completely made my day. Sending you a very grateful, warm hug and lots of love

@AkiKater 8 лет назад

I am so so happy you read my message because I really wanted you to know the impact you left on me! Thank you for the answer and just keep being.. you. I love your videos and I love watching them and their meanings. You really changed my view on art.

@Makkoiurufu 8 лет назад

I love your analogy. I can't tell you how stressful it was to watch you paint, for me that is why I always was afraid and hated watercolor because I always felt I had no control over it and could never get it the way looked in my head. Nonetheless, I love the look of watercolor. But as you painted, I loved how you just adapt and slowly and surely what first looked horrendous for me turned into something so beautiful! Lovely videos!

@esmebutt666 8 лет назад

This video is so amazing. I've been struggling so much these past 7 months. I don't know why, but at the middle of the video I began to cry. Thank you for inspiring me so much I now have so much more motivation than I did before. ❤

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

Awww you're most welcome dear friend. Here's a hug and a tissue!!

found this video and I think it's great. As a wounded veteran I find art very relaxing. I was an artist before the service so it comes natural to express my feelings through art. love the whale. today my daughter spent time watching the videos and painting with me.

@harryceleridad615 8 лет назад

@angelikabatwoman 8 лет назад

@chiobhon 7 лет назад

This is seriously cool. If anything has inspired me to take on watercolour it's this video. I think the song and the fact that it was a whale being painted was just magic together. Well done

@joesakuze3560 8 лет назад

I'm my class we have been using more watercolor more often for art, we did a self portrait and I didn't even know if I added to much watercolor. But in the end I'd say mine came out the best. Although it would have been more better if I did more blending and a more mixture of colors. We also are doing watercolor for Mothers Day and the watercolor pencils aren't really working for me, I am really sad knowing I could have down better if I didn't rush as much as I did. Hopefully I can buy my own watercolor and practice so I could color my own pieces of art!

@priscillamcmurry3918 6 лет назад

I am mesmerized by your rainbow whale video. I am attempting to do watercolors and you have the freedom and movement in your paintings that I dream of. Thank you.

@KatieJobling 8 лет назад

Love the soundtrack!

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+Katie Jobling Can't take credit for that but I love it as well!

@zarshyg 8 лет назад

this is amazing! life is a lesson for everything! I really like loose watercolour, unplanned, exciting! in life when you plan too much, and things don't turn out, we get disappointed. but with some basic planning and control, the outcome is many times better than expected. make life your teacher!

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+zarshyg All these thoughts occurred to me as I was painting this whale ironically...what a magical medium hahahah

@RenateWaas Год назад

This whale-video tutorial opened a way for me to dive into watercolor-painting without too much fear or stressfully being overly correct. Thank you so so much for this! That was years ago. I still have so much fun with watercolor and especially your kind of painting! You are genius and inspiring - I return to your videos again and again. Lots of love Renate

@asianamgirlinterests6253 8 лет назад

I picked up painting as a stress reliever. Love watching this video and reading the positive things you say. I'm still a beginner, but I hope that some day I'll be as confident as you are with a brush.

@leighcarver6826 8 лет назад

well that just made me feel good... thanks😊

@atari_k1 7 лет назад

you just saved my life, i have a final piece to complete in school, if not for this video and amazing music, and God, i wouldn't have been able to make a break through

@seyma6103 8 лет назад

You've inspired me. I ve just begun trying and tried to learn tecniques cuz i thought it should have done so. Thanks to your video, now I believe that it must have a unique touch rather than simply sticking to tecniques. thanks for your recommendations!

@arika12332 8 лет назад

im really amazed by how you explained watercolor and art in general. it's all about enjoying what you do. nothing is wrong until you make it seem like it in art :) thanks

@nataliestephens295 8 лет назад

Lately, I've become very frustrated with my painting... for some reason, but after watching you create I felt this surge of motivation to just keep going. I have to remind myself that I am a beginner in watercolor and with patience and practice my paintings will surely improve. Thank you for sharing!

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+Caramel Queenie You're most welcome sweet friend. We've all been there. I'm constantly there hahahah. I usually try to think of any sign of frustration as a point of "almost breakthrough!" or "level up is imminent!" Keep at it, be gentle with yourself and you'll find more often than not, it's become fun again :)

@xryuko5805 8 лет назад

At first, I thought it was ridiculous to make the camera film that way. But at the end... wow ! And I think it shows how, when you're not finished, you may not see the beauty of the art. Will definitely order watercolours, thanks for this video :)

@KarinPradana_Multi-fandom_Girl 8 лет назад

Thank you so much for making this video! I found this video incredibly helpful for people who are just starting to use watercolours, or just starting to use art in general. I've used watercolours, but only for school projects and not for myself and to make art. Your approach on art and having the mindset that watercolours are like life, in my opinion, is great! -well basically, art IS life for people in the art community- I'll most likely get myself a set of watercolours a few years from now, or a few months if I study enough. This rambling is going to most likely get nowhere, so I'm just going to say that I loved this video, and it is super helpful. Thank you, once more, for making this video! EDIT: Whoops. I meant 'art supplies', not just 'art'. Hehehe...

@alexism.v.1016 8 лет назад

This video was incredibly inspiring for me to watch. Your perspective of life and watercolour, and the two correlating with each other (like watercolour being a metaphor for life) is a refreshing and uplifting outlook on not only art but life as well. I'm an extremely self-critical person (as many are) and when I have a certain image of "perfection" for my art, it takes out the fun learning experience. I'm trying to be more gentle on myself and be less self critical, and leave more room for myself to experiment, fail, make mistakes, try, and try again. Also, this watercolour painting you did is beautiful! My first instinct is usually to compare myself to other artists, but this lovely video reminded me that we're all learning and at different levels as artists. We all make mistakes, but it's all part of the process! ^^

@CocoBeeArt 8 лет назад

+Alexis M.V. Awwwww Alexis!!

@alexism.v.1016 8 лет назад

+Coco Bee Art Oh, that's good that I understood what you wanted to get across. x'D That's cool that this video is a reminder for you as well, something you can return to and watch when you yourself are struggling. :-) Yes, totally, many artists do have a self-critical nature. I've never really considered the self-critical trait to be used as an instrument for pushing the boundaries of learning before; I just kinda...saw it as a black-and-white, completely negative trait, so interesting point! It is good to be critical to see what needs to be improved and whatnot(and thus, learn, as you mentioned), but it's also a hindrance if it takes over and sabotages the artist from experimenting with new styles, ideas, brush strokes, etc. and getting outside of their self-critical, perfectionist box. c: Lol, aka I agree with you. x'D Also thank you so much!!~ I send you equal amounts of 'courage and sunshine' (x3) on your artistic journey as well!

Amazing. I really like your approach. Whatever tips you have given during the video, they kind of emerge out of my mind while painting. But i reject them, get easily tangled into the techniques and righteousness of the painting. Now i feel that i should not avoid myself while painting. Let it go wherever it can. Thanks.
