    I get lost in all of your amazing videos. Someday, I would love to see what your technique would be for a dark midnight sky in 3D. I figured out the color combo: Prussian, Indanthrene, and Diox Violet. Indigo alone for darker areas. But every time I try, I just end up with a gray mess. Keep up the great work. Always look forward to your new videos. 🌟

    I loved this video. I try to avoid drawing, but I shouldn't. One artist says don't sketch, others say you must. I think you are correct. Ellen, I think the color blue that you are saying is pronounced Ver -D-EYE-ter (Verditer by Holbein). It's tricky to say and spell, but it is a beautiful color that I use often. I hope I didn't hurt your feelings.

    For anyone thinks "I can't draw!" I couldn't either 4 years ago, but trig lots of practice, many hours per week, and focusing on what I see, not what I think I see, I'm now very excited to be able to draw things that look like the subject! So just practice and enjoy the prices of learning.

    I have used some markers but I observe that after some time on the sun, some brands tend to fade away. Does it happen to you? Can you give me a piece of advise? I can't be sure if they will be light proof so I'd rather use Chinese ink or black watercolor not to risk. .. Although markers are more convenient.
