    It’s been a couple years since you made this video, so you may not see this comment. It was such a joy to see you doing “slow“ artwork. We are entering a scary time with AI and I am just happy to continue the tradition of doing “slow” art. Hope you are continuing to go strong.

    I have been in a creative block because of the boundaries put upon us, and rules and limitations have crept into my psyche, making me feel closed inside and out. I have a feeling that this way of painting will not only relax me, but make me look at creating in a whole new freeing light. This is lovely, and the background music is perfect. As a child I use to ask my mom to make a squiggle on a piece of paper and I'd see what I could make out of it. I remember it being so much fun, and challenging. I am so glad you brought forth this memory that I'd forgotten. I may use it again. Mom is 93 now and to make something beautiful out of something she started would be not only a challenge, but putting a piece of her into my art. Thank you so much.

    👌🤩 Thank you for sharing! Such valuable info for one of an artist's most difficult times. Some ways I have found over the years to pull myself out of a deadlock- • Shut off the TV and any other visual distractions and put on some music. • Paint color swatches of colors you haven't used in awhile. • Take several different shaped brushes and make brush imprints/marks on scratch paper. • Open a magazine or dictionary and paint the first word you see in a monochromatic style. (Forces your mind to open up to new possibilities.) • Paint a color triad chart using three colors you've never combined together before. Hope that is some additional help to anyone stuck in blandville. 😂 Thanks again! ☺️👍

    I have a immunodeficiency so I've been on 'lockdown ' since the last flu season...yeah, I think it will be a year in September. It has been hard on my depression to be so isolated. You start thinking why exactly am I fighting to live? Having a craft has kept my head above the waves. Donating cards to hospitalized children and retirement homes has saved me in many ways!

    You are just what I need! After years of artistic pause you inspired me to start again and encouraged me to start a whole new world of watercolor with my doodling. I’ve taken a break this entire year and I’m itching to create. Watching your process in this video and the explanation just pumped me up again. It brought me hope again! I love your voice in my noisy negative voice in my head. I am so grateful for you!

    I have been watching your videos every now and then, between all the other different types of art mediums videos, and I always seem to come back to yours. I have my own channel, have been working with everything from acrylic pouring to watercolor to resin and woodworking, etc. but am so frustrated with myself and my artistic progress... I think things to death, overcomplicate things, try to work with too many mediums at once... my mind never wants to give me a break! I just tried encaustic this past week, after years of wanting to ty it, and was actually sorely disappointed, which disappointed me terribly. I think I am going to now, inspired by your lovely videos and tutorials, work in just one medium for a while, if I can manage to, and try to become better at being less complicated. Thank you for your lovely videos and words.

    A big thank you, Cee-Cee, from Scotland, where summer is over and winter with its long, dark days are on the horizon. Your video-ed demonstrations and gentle words and manner help one who lives alone to manage and cope with the long 'ground hog' days of isolation and lack of physical contact. In April, hidden away by Covid restrictions, I made the decision to cast inhibitions aside and to start trying to paint. I'm so glad that I did. I have found the mindfulness of your kind of "doodling art" so absorbing and recuperative, particularly when I'm rudderless and feel all at sea. It really helps. And I've discovered that I LOVE golds! ☺️ Be gentle with you. Keep painting. Keep safe. With love. 😘

    Ceecee, You have talked about gold so much and I finally found some while visiting Memphis. I want to tell you what I tried, I did a wet on wet wash of gold all over my paper before painting abstract art. It turned out just beautiful! Thank you for sharing your style, I love it!
