Congratulations on a fabulous year of fitness, creativity, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and inspiration! We appreciate you so much! And I loved your collaboration with other artists, too!
I'm so so proud and happy for you and your triumphs! 🏆 Thank you for being an awesome staple in my watercolor journey! 🎨🖌️ Happy Holidays to you and your family! 💞🎄🎁☃️🎅🥛🍪🕊️
I’m trying to get back to painting again. My depression keeps me frozen. I’m 70 and you remind me so much of myself at a younger age even up to the fingernail biting. But I’m so glad you are making changes at your younger age. I’m still trying to get a little more active too and lose weight. You are an inspiration. Wish me luck. At least I’m going to try.
Love Jillian and she is also just the sweetest person ever!
Your channel was one of my favorite things in 2023.❤
I just wanted to stop and say thank you for this video. It is immensely useful. I'm new to watercolors and deeply in love with them. Being a lifetime artist, I'm trying to avoid bad habbits and unnecessary spending. Being such a personal thing, finding one's process is layered. You've inspired me AND likely saved me a small fortune. I'll be showing all the love i can for the channel in the coming year. Thanks again.
Being in a sad state of mind after covid, illness in the family and problems with our children, I started looking for an outlet I could do from home. I stumbled on an easy watercolour painting and went searching for more… your Watercolour Week got me started on a new passion. Thank you Emma ! I wish you and your family all the best for 2024!
retired librarian here-appreciate you recommending BOOKS! I actually bought-instead of borrowed-Solomon’s Field Guide book because of your recommendation.
Emma, you were my first introduction to watercolour, and I love these review videos SO much. I found De Winton Paper Co from you and have just subscribed to Kolbie Blume. Thank you so much for being generous with your recommendations of others. (And I still love watching your videos too)

I also noticed your face slimming all year. 2023 was my year to get fit too... but I took on too many other things. Well done you. Inspired by you to give it another go in 2024
Emma, I started watching you about 4ish years ago I think. You have spoken about your mental ups and downs. The smile now on your face shows how happy you are and I'm so happy for you! 😊
I am so happy we are friends.... KZread friends!😊 A hearty Amen to the other comments posted. I'm very much looking forward to my Craftomo subscription that I was able to get in on starting in January! Can't wait to follow you more closely this year. Every blessing!
So glad you are in a good place both mentally and physically. Love your lessons.
It has been a pleasure watching & painting with you through out the year. I have learned alot from your lessons in watercolor & yes, I have your book & love it. Congrats to you on a wonderful 2023. Let's just imagine what 2024 will hold for Us all. Happy New Year!
7:04 😮 I found myself a gasp while watching you just whimsically use the Carandache color 2 crayons on that rough paper oh my heart 😅!!! I Too Use them so little because of their worth to me .
What a joy you are... and a great teacher. I have had a hard year losing a best friend. I had been on a health plan and lost weight but losing my buddy rocked my world. Painting did help . I have not painted the last two months but have found commitment to get painting again and focusing on my health and fitness. Looking forward to more of your wonderful videos.... and Kristy rice and Jillian boon too.. Thank you
Congratulations on your professional and personal accomplishments this year! You are one of my favourite KZread artists.
I just got the book A Year of Watercolor for Christmas. I am really enjoying it. The downside to the book is that if you can't really draw, there is not an outline to use. But maybe someday my drawing skills will improve and it won't stop me dead in my tracks.
Happy New Year to you and your family ❤ you have been very inspirational to me since 2022 and I have learnt a lot about watercolors thanks to you i can paint a rose I cannot wait until 2024 I will always be a big fan of yours 😊
Congratulations Emma, your health is so important! I lost my health a month ago.
You are a rockstar Emma. Congrats all around on a fabulous journey. Thanks for letting us come along.
I'm so proud of you, Emma! Taking control of your health, recognizing it is a top priority, and getting it done is all a HUGE accomplishment!!! Way to go!!! You're such a great example of taking charge of one's own physical and mental well-being. Thank you!
I am waiting for those brushes to come out!
Lovely news for you and your channel too! I have made a few comments but just know I find your paintings and videos simply amazing! Thanks for continuing to create and share your watercolor painting journey with us. Please take care and continue to bring your techniques and joy in painting to your channel. Thank You!
Congratulations on a year full of lovely painting demonstrations by you. All the very best for 2024 to you and your family.
Thank you for a wonderful year Emma. You are an inspiration. All the best to you and yours in 2024.
Congrats on the weight loss! I, too, have been losing, and it does help the mental health along! I have loved your videos, and looking forward to 2024 with you! :)
You are one very accomplished young lady. None of the things you mentioned are easy to achieve! You should be very proud of yourself. You're an inspiration. Congratulations on everything and thank you for working so hard on your videos. ❤
Thank you so much for teaching us! It is probably weird to see so many likes, but not seeing the people learn for themselves. I just want to say I loved the Christmas tutorials every day. I got my little book for practice first attempt, and my watercolor post cards for sharing the second attempt and I loved and do love learning from you!! Thanks for being committed to us and sharing the love for watercolor painting. I love your style! I look forward to your new year of tutoring and your new brushes. I also look forward to continuing to read your book! God Bless ya.
You are amazingly talented. 65#’s! I rejoice in your accomplishments, Emma. Due to illness, just doing laundry is a huge accomplishment. So I live through others now. I can’t wait to see what you reach for in 2024.
You have achieved quite a bit this year…professionally and personally. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your plans for 2024. 🤗
Wonderful video! You were my first YT after a referral from a fried after having taken a beginner class at first of this year. I am so thankful for that referral. I've learned so much and really enjoyed all your reviews. I love your book, so great. Sorry to say I can't agree about the Feathers book😑 just my opinion. Looking forward to spring painting..I like you love florals. Happy New Year and Big Congrats on the health journey!!! I've used watercolor to lose some weight this year too. I'm retired so when i feel the munchies coming on i go sit and paint...bookmarks, cards, recipe cards...just whatever. Thank you for all you do❤❤
Congratulations!!! on the weight loss. I noticed your face getting thinner in the videos. Thanks for this past year of videos of all sorts. Enjoyed the art journey with you. Looking forward to 2024. Happy New Year!!!
Congratulations!!! with your fitness journey. That’s an amazing accomplishment. I really enjoyed your « Finding the Joy in Watercolour Series » .
Kolbie’s book is gorgeous! I have to add to my wish list 🎉
Emma, I'm so happy for you for all you have accomplished in 2023! Because of you, I am enjoying learning to watercolor! I look forward to what you have in store for 2024! Thanks for all you do!🥰
Enjoyed this video. I can’t wait to receive the first subscription box in 2024! Very excited!
Emma ❤ you have no idea how much I really enjoyed doing stuff together this year. I am so grateful to get to paint casually together on a few occasions and realising how much common ground we have with our young kids and doing this watercolor thing- trying to stay "inspired" and all those in betweens. I just want you to know that I have seen you grow so much in your youtube channel over the years and the amount of effort and work you put in I know is alot and am really glad that people value it so much because you really add lots to our growing art community ❤❤❤ I m super looking forward to more stuff together and wish we lived closer!! The Internet will bind us! Haha and that stroke brush of yours... I HAVE TO GET IT❤🎉 Also - I let my kids use the carandache (a video coming soon) and it helped me get over the anxiety of using it enough... 😂and they broke a few too... 😅 but now it's a little trashed... I don't mind using it more! Hahahaha
Thank you for all you do! You've been such an inspiration to this newbie lol. I'm looking forward to your new January series. Happy New Year to you and your family! 🤗🤗
Congratulations on your personal and professional achievements this year! The first of the year I began searching for a much needed creative outlet. I have painted and crafted for years. I landed on watercolor; thanks in large part to you! I came across your KZread channel in the spring and have enjoyed painting with you ever since. Thank you for being such a positive and real inspiration to so many. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for 2024!🎉
I am a fan of your tutorials, they do teach a lot in an enjoyable way. You do look lovely, i would never dare to make a personal comment but a complement is in order. Happy New Year 2024, let it be full of joy and success
Love your videos and your book. Thank you for teaching me about watercolor. Congratulations on your health journey!
I've really enjoyed your Advent series!
Thanks for contributing to OUR mental health!! I’m quite interested in painting landscapes with a focus on localized bushes, shrubs, trees and flowers (as opposed to introduced species) in ecosystems. ❤️an introductory series in Jan. I’m still pretty nervous to start watercolours, been learning to work with acrylics for the past few years ( newbie to that as well.)
HAPPY NEW YEAR Emma!
Loved your advent calendar watercolors. So fun! Each day I couldn’t wait to see what was next. I made them into gift tags for the family. Thanks!
Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your family! You have been a major inspiration to me with your watercolor painting and also I surprised my family this year when I got a brush tattoo similar to yours. All the best! ❤️
You’ve been one of my faves for so long. I’m so proud of how far you’ve come. Here’s to many many more years of success!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for sharing. I'm VERY new to watercolor and love your videos. Happy New Year!
Congratulations, so happy and proud of you, for your accomplishments and dedication. Loved this whole year of boxes.
Emma you are such an inspiration to me and many others! Thank you for your transparency …I love you approach to painting I personally have leaned so much from you. I was able to lead a watercolor workshop at our aides retreat this fall sharing what I learned from you with others. As for ideas for 2024…I love painting wreathes ..what about a monthly floral wreath ..some square, round ,c shaped…just an idea …I will follow whatever you decide on to paint! Thank you again! You are a true blessing to me!
Congratulations on improving your health and thank you for all the wonderful videos 😊
So happy you have had a wonderful year and that you've focused on taking care of yourself! I am so happy to now have the entire year of watercolor boxes and so enjoyed the tutorials that went along with them. Looking forward to whatever you do next! Happy New Year!
Happy new year Emma and for your family 🎉🎉🎉🎉 😊

Thank you so much for all your work - I‘ve been following you for some years now and I always like your videos. Have a great, healthy and colourful new year!🎨☀️❤️
Happy New Year!! You are looking great!!!
I came to love filbert brushes very very early on. I used them to do my swatches and 'play' with new paints and just loved how they fit on the page. I have been trying a stroke brush after seeing so many KZreadrs talk about them: I think I like it, but I'm not certain yet.
Congrats on the book and the health. Big accomplishments.
Thank you fore sharing! Always need your insights!❤
Happy New Year to you and your family, congratulations on your achievements too xx

I am so very happy for you in your healthy lifestyle endeavors, and wish you continued success!!! ❤🎉 Happy and blessed New Year!
Good for you and keep up the good works!
Congratulations on an awesome year of accomplishments, both personally and professionally! You are definitely an inspiration and a wonderful teacher whose instructional videos I have been watching for a number of years now. I always look forward to checking out each new lesson that you film and am excited for 2024. I am wondering if you might consider painting a glowing lantern at some point as I think the glow is so pretty, especially in winter. Thanks so much! Happy New Year to you and your family!
Great job!! So proud for you. Love, love, love your painting. . .you've taught me so much. Thank you.

Wow Emma! A lot accomplished in 2023! Congratulations! I wanted you to know I have been searching for some round brushes that I enjoyed using. I got your first set from Craftamo at Christmas and love them❤️ perfect point and a bit of snap. Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2024!
My favorite supplies this year were my Etchr Watercolor Sketchbook, Canson XL Pen & Ink Sketchbook, Daniel Smith 12 Half Pan paint box and my Micron #8 pen.
Congratulations Emma well done on your fitness training, you have such a busy life its great you found time for this ❤
Wow. You’ve accomplished so much in all areas of your life. Good for you🎉
Thanks loved this. I just discovered you a few weeks ago as I have only started watercolor painting this past month. I find your style very helpful.
I’m finding joy in branching out from wc into gouache. Thought you might like to give it a try. Not a lot out there on gouache florals. You are one of my go-tos. I love your spontaneity.
Thank you for your favourites ❤ I love seeing your videos 😍 I wish to you and your family a happy new year 2024. Stay always healthy and may creativity be with you 💫
Thank you for your great tutorials, I am a beginner and am looking forward to the January series.
