I’ve been watching some of these videos and I swear your TH-cam channel is a hidden treasure! More people need to know about it!!!

I want to try this! Thanks

I’ve been wanting to try this, thanks for the tips!

Wow, fascinating to watch you create, Laura. Love seeing how you blend the pastels. An amazing likeness!

Your drawing skills and colour knowledge are amazing.

I left pastels also because of paper if i use sanded (UART) paper it was very dusty and falling down while pastelmat was very frustrating to blend on surface...please comment 🙏

I left pastels because of the mess and dust...otherwise its an excellent medium

What paper is this?

This was a wonderful idea!

To open this bottles it’s needed to press it first. I use several layers of fabric. Put the bottle on hard chair, fabric on top and press with whole the body weight, turn the cap after click sound. If clean screwing part carefully after each use, it opens much easier, but I forget to do so often.

Does the linseed oil seep into the paper of the book at all?

This is great. Thanks for sharing.

Texas tea! 😂. Thanks for alerting us about opening the jar 👍🏼. I just bought a set of these to play with. I decided to order some of the water mixable paint thinner because I heard that it won’t change the colors like water will and it is formulated to work well with the paint.

omg thank you for this video! I was making my own and had no idea what tool i needed to set in the t-nut so i just resorted to carving a little mote for the T part of the nut. Also drilling into the plastic hinge wasn't something i thought about to make the easel close shut lol i wish i had known that earlier before buying hinges that has the tension screws on the sides

Bonjour Laura, merci pour votre vidéo. Pour faire votre coq n’ayez crainte de prendre de plus longs morceaux. Car en cas de mauvaise manœuvres, il vous reste de la matière pour vous rattraper. Notamment lors de la crète du coq. Cela m’est arrivé plusieurs fois 😉. Vous aurez plus facile d’amincir le haut de la tête comme si bien expliqué par Chris Lubkemann. Bonne continuation, Michèle

Thank you for sharing an easy, affordable DO IT YOURSELF plein aire work station for watercolor using a minimum of tools and supplies that most people have on hand and can readily find at any local hardware store.

I’m loving the intro

This is a phenomenal video! Thank you so much!

This looks fun but i am pretty sure i'll manage to injure myself while carving 😂

great video as always laura, it looks very nice

I very much enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing!

I like your first attempt.

You did a great job. Thanks

Well done for your first try.

Laura, thank you for the video, just found your channel. I have painful thumbs as well, but willing to try this.

It turned out great. Thank you. Great video

very cute laura

Which is best to color anime art , gouache or alchohol markers ?

Are you sure that’s Balsa? It appears to be basswood. Either way, good job!

JFI - I think Ian does - light grey tombow pen, then uses watercolour paint, then goes in with ink pen for detail after the paints dried, it really loosens up the drawing if you do it in that order. X

This is really lovely, thank you for sharing 😊

It was fantastic! Could you tell in the next video the names of colour which you mix them? Thanks

I couldn't open that bottle either!! Tempted to write to W&N...grrr

great learning example for Ian's technique, thank you for showing🙂

Why must we paint the same things over and over when oil painting. Its gotta be my #1 vice with oil painting in general. It's tedious... oil painting, at times!! Especially on a complex piece.

great job

Looks like fun and your instructions are clear and thorough. Thanks for sharing this. I imagine people can do all kinds of things with this printing technique, from wedding invitations to posters and fun birthday cards.

This is so cool!

Love it. New knives are fun

So Cute… As usual, very concise description of your process 👍

Just discovered your channel after watching a review of a carving knife on another channel. You’re Rooster carving video popped up. Needless to say, here I am, still on your channel after subscribing. I’ve watched you carve a rooster, paint a dragon and make an easel. Apparently I’m having a binge fest on a bunch of your past videos. Love your content and your concise instructions 👍

Awesome !! This was a fun video to watch, as it put me in a festive mood. Looking forward to watching the Lunar New Year Parade in Vancouver’s Chinatown tomorrow 😺

"I AIN'T NO CHICKEN AM A WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-STERRRRRRR!"

Good job! I enjoyed watching and listening. Thanks!

Your video was helpful to me. Thank you! Many times I have had a difficult time trying to open those little jars of mediums. :)

Hi Laura. I've been carving fruit tree branches for a few years. Just carved a spoon and two letter openers out of branches. I must have gotten your video because I was thinking about carving a design in one of the handles.

Wow

Hi Laura. You did a great job, and better than my first attempt with a better branch too lol. I don't think every one has to get curls in the tail, and though it looks nice yours looks nice too. I am not a great whittler, but every now and then something amazing finds its way out of the wood I'm whittling and despite my best efforts to ruin it, it emerges triumphant. X

Don't worry about one leg being shorter...Just name him, Eilene... Your other knife looks to be a Solingen #58...Great steel in that blade. Should be able to sharpen it enough to shave the hair off a gnats legs
