    i smile everytime in your videos when you say "now is time to paint! the exciting part!" because your whole process is actually very exciting to watch ☺ i am so admirative about the fact that you draw all this without any pre-sketch help, like not even the lines for the perspective, and it turns out always so on point and lively ✨

    This was so much fun to watch Becky! Love all the people you've been drawing (I like everything you draw). The biggest gift I have gotten from watching you, as I am starting to draw again, is that I don't have to capture what I'm drawing perfectly. It's my impression and experience I am having while I draw - which makes it sacred. ❤ Thank you for that!

    Hello Becky. This is the second video from your channel that I've viewed and I'm so impressed. Love your work! You work quickly and have a lively style that doesn't get hampered down by fretting about imperfections (though clearly, you are a skilled illustrator) but embraces the moment. I really like how you treat color, with emphasizing warm tones contrasted with cooler ones. I paid greater attention to that in my cafe sketch yesterday and was very happy with the results.

    Hi Becky! I'm always interested in where you start drawing (or what) in a complicated scene. I'm a little intimidated when I look at a scene with so much in it. You've been very helpful in showing how to find the right thing to start with to ground the rest of the picture. Thank you for that! Also, do people ask to see your paintings when you are in a cafe?
