I am SO happy you are here, my creative friend. 🥰 I hope you will sketchbook with me while you hang out during this sketchbook video! I have included the link to download the reference photo above if you would like to use it and be able to come back to it later. 💚 It's my own personal travel photo, so I give you full permission to create some art with it. If you have any questions let me know! I would love to hear from you in the comments.
I enjoyed your video! I thought the trees came out perfect and I will try to embrace you advice in not stressing over sktchbook work. Very good advice. So glad you got past the paper pilling in the beginning!
Hi Melanie, thank you for sharing your experience on this piece (I found the end result beautiful 🤩), as well as your tips and thoughts. Personally I'd love to see your normal approach with watercolors in a future video. I rarely use watercolors myself, but this inspires me to try it out.
I am so glad you found this inspiring, Patricia! 🥰 I will definitely make some videos with my normal watercolor approach then! 💚 What are your favorite materials to use?! I'd love to know!
Hi Melanie, this was a beautiful video to watch - inspiring and calming. I love your desk / studio set up. May I ask where you got that amazing looking large metal watercolour palette from (not the pans, just the hinged metal palette box)? Thankyou💗Sam☀xxx
Hi Sam! That makes me so happy to hear you enjoyed this! 💛 And absolutely! Unfortunately, the artist I originally bought my metal watercolor tin from closed her business but I did find the same tin (I think it's the same) from this Etsy business here: www.etsy.com/shop/HydraColour They have a tin called "Extra Large" which appears to be the same size as mine. 😊 I LOVE this tin and it was really easy to customize with all of my favorite paints.
Thankyou so much Melanie, I really appreciate it. I love that tin so much, unfortunately I discovered that the etsy shipping fees cost more than the tin - Oh well - it could be the universe telling me I already have enough art stuff🤣 @@theswimmingowl 💕xxx
Well, shoot! That is definitely expensive for the shipping then. yikes!!! But I totally understand about having more than enough supplies! 😅 @@samashleyart
