love the colours and what fun. Acrylic and gesso that was interesting will have to try that. I loved the freedom and I like the idea to create a large piece and if so desire cut it down. I would likely do this as I love to create and add to books which for me are easy to store. Looking forward to joining you in your future videos Denise. Thank you for this. :)
The final paintings definitely works as a large piece,I love the combination of purples and greens,the final painting has a richness of depth and all the marks you made on top enhanced that.I love the Khadi paper too,and when I'm making my mixed papers sketchbook I add this paper.I agree painting everyday really does make your art better,and is also great for your creative wellbeing too.(Matt) p.s I am loving using the colour cube deck as well and pull a card every day
@@2lilowlsstudio it's actually a great paper for mixed media,I like how it affects paints etc differently to water colour paper Glad the Journal has inspired you so much too(Matt)
Lovely piece Denise. You mentioned music 🎶 to listen to while you paint. My hubby is a composer #pianomanmark and it's lovely to have his pieces playing while I paint. His music is very nostalgic, easy listening so it's perfect. Love the colour pallette you used...❤
So gorgeous Denise -- that may not be your color palette but it's definitely mine! I'm going to resist the urge to get those wonderful Blick matte paints though and just keep working with what I have -- that piece is restful and exciting at the same time -- love your experiments! 💚💙💜
When you pulled that card, I thought it was probably my favorite palette ever! And you said you didn’t like it! As you get started it is looking Monet!
Always love a color box challenge and this one is fantastic. I’m always so pleased when I see a video from you. You are my #1 RU-vid creator (not sure if that’s the right term. “RU-vidr” sounds like a potato and that you’re definitely not!)🥰
Wow! I love the color palette and the way the colors mingled together is just gorgeous! The texture and marks are so cool! I would not cut it up, and it is definitely frame worthy! 😍
I found that working in a journal with acrylics, if I got sticky pages I rubbed them down with Dorland's Wax and they were fine. Beat using waxed paper between the pages for sure.
Love all your videos and so happy you paint everyday! I didn’t know that journal was discontinued. I always see them at Michael’s. That’s a bummer. It’s so unique.
I think it would be perfect for your journal! I liked the price for the 20 sheet pack too - worked out to about 1/3 the price of the papers I usually use! Thank you! 🥰
I love the gesso with acrylic pic painting love the acrylic paint with the gesso. The colours are the best! This color palette speaks volumes. Great day and wonderful job Denise!
Incredible image, just in awe, but you make me believe that I could manage this. Bring on tomorrow! Also you are mesmorising to listen to, big thank you for inspiring me, was in a bit of a funk ... but no more! Blessings to you and yours.
Usually not a fan of purple, but the color palette today was beautiful. I love the idea of you using your piece as a journal cover. Every time you start making marks with a pencil, it always looks like you're getting ready to play hangman;) I recently purchased Sennelier oil pastels, and they are a game changer -- yes, there is a difference in professional-grade art supplies! I was using cray-pas before and had a lot of oil pastel boogers on my artwork. I devoured all of your content both on youtube and skillshare and you're one of my favorite artist! Thank you, Denise for your time, your transparency and your chatter.
Love this! Also, this color palette came at a perfect time for me. I just found a purple shade that I absolutely love. It is so smooth and silky. Love the texture of it, but I was having a hard time coming up with a palette for it because I rarely use purple. Thanks for your help!!! Very much appreciated!!! Always inspiring 😊
Beautiful artwork and such a delight watching you create especially with acrylics. Wonder if you'll try out Derwent inktense blocks or inktense pan set some time? I have some but I don't use them much - beautiful colors and are permanent like acrylic ie you can't reactivate once dried. Would love to see how you'd use them. Thanks for sharing.
I have them, and have shown them in earlier videos. They are very vivid and I don’t tend to grab for those colors. I’ll have to get them back out! Thank you! 🥰
I absolutely love the colors in this piece. I have never tried Dick Blicks paints. I shop there but haven't bought those. Are they all matte? Love this piece as always . Have agreat week girl.😊
If you place your tape on cloth, your clothes, or your skin before taping your paper down, it removes some of the stickiness to the tape, and it won’t stick.
When you had right side as the bottom, i felt I was in someone's garden with a small grove of "pencil" trees middle of the left side. It is hard to describe landmarks in an abstract piece. I really loved the color palette. And ditto on where is the gold?
I bought a couple of Blick paint sets aftet Christmas. I need to get them out and play. Question, these are some of my favorite colors, and may be i missed it, but what color cube number was this? I am trying to put together a favorite pallet i like. This is a real beauty. Love the colors and mark making on it. ❤
