Thank you. I am binge watching your tutorials. You do them beautifully and simple. I can confidently say that you make simple what is really not that simple. Thank you again. Sending love from Italy. Rita ❤

Great job on making your lovely tutorials look easy enough for a novice. Thank you for your straightforward instruction & easy manner. ❤

Thank you for this video on how to apply and use the Gamsol blending solution! I bought a bottle a long time ago but didn't know exactly how to use it. Hooray for finding you on You Tube, I'm your fan forever!!! You're the BEST!!

I’ve watched your tutorials for ages and love your techniques, then got sidetracked with other projects. So happy to see this, hooked again! Thanks Claire 🥰

I have the Prismacolor colorless blender pencil, the Caran D'ache full color blender pencil, the Prisma alcohol blending marker, paper stumps made from a diy video and the Daler and Rowney odorless thinner. I haven't really liked any blending method. It's always made the color look muddy to me and I figured I probably wasn't using anything the right way. I have since figured out that the Caran D'ache is better for certain looks and the Prisma has its uses as well but felt I invested poorly in the thinner until I saw this. You are the only one that made it click for me. and I had to try it on some wood grain the Game of Thrones coloring book. Thank you for helping to understand how to use what I already had. I just had to let you know you helped. Best Wishes Claire.

Absolutely stunning. I have never used blending solutions, but now I have to try it. I love the finish you achieved. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

This is lovely! Thank you for sharing how you do this. I love watching you color. Would love to see you do more color along type videos like this. I learn so much from watching you and I love hearing you speak and explain it.

Thank you very much,dear Claire,for your great tutorial of colouring wood!So often in the books you have wooden furniture,panels and walls,too.Very nice,dear Claire!I will try it.👍🏻✍🏻👏🏻

Wonderful, TY Claire. I've been waiting to purchase Gamsol. Your video & the 'Master Class' made the perfect time. Ty again.

I just learned so much. I can't wait to try Gamsol. THANK YOU!!

Hi Claire! Excellent tutorial as always! You cover everything so well. Thank you so much for your work and especially sharing it here.❤

Love your tutorials and even not being an English speaker, I understand you quite clearly, thanks for sharing! Best regards from Brasil

Wonderful, Thank you Claire, i'm so Glad i've found this tutorial because i never worked with the Blending solutions yet and i've purchase the Spectrum Noir and i really found so much easier to Blend with this solutions, i really enjoy to watch, for myself i would make a Blank sheet between these twom pages lol!

Thankyou Claire. I shall use that❤️

Thank you Claire! Great tutorial as usual. I have had gamsol for quite some time but couldn't get it to work. Watching you showed me what I was doing wrong. Thanks for all you do!!

Thank you, Claire, for this video and all others. Have gamsol but havent had nerve enough to try it. xxx 💕🌷

Claire! This is stunning! I love it to bits!! The floor? Wowza! That dress? Devine! All so beautiful!! 🥰

Perfect timing. I'm going to try all your tips here. Beautiful work. I use a piece of cardboard under the pic for edges, cut up cereal box works well.

Thank you Clare the tutorial was great to see how smooth and realistic the floor and dress looks with the gamisol

Great tutorial!

Thank you so very much for this tutorial! I've been trying to learn how to color wood without any luck lol. This video was extremely helpful! ❤️

Hi Claire - I have had this book for some time now and haven't done one thing in it and then I catch this video. I love, love how my floor turned out and my dress isn't nearly as beautifully vibrant as yours - but I am going to add some darker shadows. I've never really been a fan of Gamsol - but for large areas - it's the bomb!! Thank you so much for sharing the "how to" - I enjoyed it greatly. Kathy

Great video Clair! 🤗

I didn’t realize you could use gambol in a coloring book page, very lovely blending effects and fast too!

Thank you, such a helpful tutorial, I have been thinking about trying odorless mineral spirits, I feel like I have some idea where to start with them now. That wooden floor is so realistic looking beautiful😍

Thank you. I always wondered how people got the smoothness and blend. I have had gamsol for a long time and haven’t used it.

Thank you so much for that ❤️❤️ it was vary help full .

Love it

The floor turned out beautiful.. I also enjoy using Gamsol for melting waxed pencils..❤️

Thank you for the wonderful tutorial. Your tutorials are easy to follow and very doable. Vivian

Lmfao 😂 😂 😂. I have to say, one of the best and funnest video I've seen you do! Lol. 😄 😄. But it's adorable! And the end, with the pencil, I do that all the time! Lol. 😄 😄. I'm going to have to break down, get some of the blending stuff. Does make look so smoother, and can color faster! I was watching the livestream of Sammie yesterday morning. She was talking about the light fast pencils of Derwent. She told me you already announced the winner in your drawing. I've been out of town. Didn't get home until Saturday. I've been looking back on your past videos. Which one is it? I can't believe I missed it! 😣😤😤. And this picture is awesome! As always! I love the purple dress, beings it's my favorite color. Lol. I can't wait to see this one finished. Thanks for sharing! 😉 ❤. Please let me know what video you showed the winner in? Thanks hun! 😉 ❤.

PS! I just got a email from ColorIt. I know you do a lot of videos on different products. Have you ever used there, gel pens, and there water brush pens? In my email, given me a chance to order the sets of there 48 refill pens, and a set of the watercolor brush pens, also refillable. For 29,99 a set! I know it's a good price, but I've never used there brand. Wondering if you have? Are they worth getting? OK, talk soon. 😊 ❤

Colour with Claire ,oooo, ok! Lol. I figured I didn't win. I just like when I watch the videos of the ones that win. I get just as excited as they do!lol. I've got 5 coloring books coming now that I've won, was overwhelmed. I never win anything, so I was shocked when I won the books from 2 other youtubers I'm subscribed to, lol. If I'd had won those pencils, I would have probably had a heart attack!lol. I've heard there almost gone now, getting hard to get. Thanks for getting back with me. 😉😉😊

I'm really happy to learn from you, you really take time to explain and show how-to. But I've noticed something curious in the comments - in the description it says that the video was published a little more over a month ago, yet some comments were written a year ago? Guess even time travelers love your tutorials :) ...

Hi Claire I have a question. How do you know which Colors match like you did in this video. I’m still struggling with finding the right light or darker colour. For instance I used hotpink as midtone (for glazing on a donut) and used process red as a shade. In the end I used the white to lighten it up a bit because it wasn’t the ‘right midtone’. And the shading didn’t really pop. So I was a bit disappointed ☹️

Can I use this blending solutions with polychromos too? Because there is a less more wax in it than the prisma's. :-D Blending sticks don't work very good either. Thank you for the great tips!

Wouldn’t the longest shadow be directly behind her ? The part where she is in front of the fire, blocking the light would make dark shadows no ?
