- It's catch-up time!
Just a quick video with some announcements for upcoming stuff here in the Cave. Please feel free to leave any questions for the Q & A segment of the livestream underneath in the comments section.
6th Birthday Livestream: Friday 26th April, 4pm UK time
GET YOUR RAFFLE TICKETS HERE: www.thecolourc...
Prize bundles include paints, pencils and lots of other high-quality supplies, which will be showcased over the coming week or so. Half the proceeds from each ticket will be donated to 'Tiny Changes' - a UK charity that focuses on the mental health of young people. The charity was set up by the family of the lead singer of 'Frightened Rabbit' who died by suicide in 2020. My friend Glyn was a musician and was a fan of the band, so this seems fitting. Check out their website here: tinychanges.com/

Aloha Gem! I'm so happy to see your smiling face again. Amazed you've found time among the chaos of calving season to make videos.🐮 More baby pics if you can !
I will happily support
your chosen charity.
I'm looking forward to the livestream, and a coloring video with intense will be wonderful.
You are beautiful as always and your haircut is stunning!
Take all the time you need to take care of your mental and physical health. Enjoy life!💛
Awesome to see you again Gem! You are such a beautiful person, and I love your hair! I will continue to send prayers your way, and also virtual hugs. BTW, the wee calves are so cute!❤
Hi Gem. I'm very sorry to hear about your losses and think you absolutely did the right thing by stepping back from TH-cam. I always enjoy your videos and I'm happy to watch whatever you have the time to create. I also wanted to say that your hair looks lovely!
So good to see you’re back, Gem!! I missed your videos, but take your time and take good care of yourself ❤
(Love the new hair 🤩)
I so love your star jumper .thank you for sahring lovely up-date xxxxx
Great to see your face, love what you have planned for your livestream. I bought my raffle tickets, and am happy to support your chosen charity 🫶🏻. Hugs from 🇨🇦👋🏻
Glad to see you in person again. Looking forward to the stream.
Wonderful to hear from you. Looking forward to the live stream! Please take care of yourself
It's so good to see you. Love your hair! Looking forward to the livestream.
Dear Gem: So glad to see you again and happy that you are looking after yourself. Blessings to you and yours. You are wise to take time to focus on the important things in your life right now. Health, family and friends. Yes I missed the cave, but dealing with suicide and health issues with Mr. Gem and the loss of family are a lot. We're here for you whenever.
Weeee! See you at the live stream!
Can we see more baby cows?
This can be arranged :)
Losing someone like that really does change you permanently. I am glad you are coming out of your long dark winter now. I am excited for the livestream! Baby cows are adorable! For the best description of grief, look up the box and ball analogy by Nurse Hadley. It makes so much sense.
Gem, I feel like I am only repeating what everyone else has said -- but it was so good to SEE you today. Thanks for the update though I'm sure it was a tough decision to speak about all that happened last year. Your warmth and caring shines through and we are all here waiting when you are ready. Take good care of you and Mr. Gem, the pups, and the coos. All the best! xx
So good to see you gem, please continue to take care of yourself and reach out if you need to.
Love the inktense am currently working on a piece with them xx
Very kind words. Thank you 🥰
sticking around for the long run, Gem 😊 missing you and your videos a lot actually, so it's always good to see you
Wonderful to see you Gem and LOVE the hair! Pleased you're ok. Will definitely try and pop into the live stream on the 26th but it'll have to be after I finish work but hope to see you then!
Dear Gem,
Good to see you pop up.
Grief sucks, and 'that' kind of grief is a different animal altogether.
Only too pleased to support Tiny Changes through your raffle.
May you be able to find a balance between what you need and what you love to give.
I'll look forward to popping in on the 26th.
Thank you for being down to earth and sharing your passion with us.
Take care,
Casey
I'm always delighted to see a new Cave video, but I wholeheartedly support the idea of doing one video a week and so giving yourself more time and grace for all the other things in your life. I agree, those are incredibly important.
I hope the coming year treats you as kindly as last year did unkindly, so that you can continue to recover.
I'm very excited for the livestream, hopefully i can join in for a fair bit of it!
(And if Cavemas is a victim of Gem taking more time to take care of herself and the important things in her life, I will happily wield the sacrificial knife. Cavemas is fun and special - but not special enough for that)
Your hair looks gorgeous. Take care of *you* sweets ❤
Hello Gem, Just popped onto your channel as not been on for some time.
I am glad that you are giving yourself some time to recover after a very challenging and sad year in 2023. You must do what you need to do to make what you do enjoyable.
I cannot believe your channel is now 6 years old - as I type this. Where have those years gone!
I am sorry to have missed the live stream however. But back here and will get notification of such things and I will check the community tab.
So, take care of yourself Gem :)
Gem take as much time as you need whenever you need, we will all still be here, waiting with anticipation for your return. Raffle is a great idea & awesome cause to donate to also, just bought my tickets.
It's good to see how well you are! I bet those calves are getting lots of hugs😍😍
They are!
Sending hugs
Sending love
Good to see you again Gem. ❤❤
Hey Gem, lovely to see your face and I'm loving the hair! Have got my raffle ticket, what a smashing idea and you know all of us Cavers will be here, ready and waiting, whenever you're comfortable to resume "normal" activities. Loving the baby coos, they're ridiculously cute when small.
That kind of a tragedy affects you permanently, I've sadly been in the same situation, you don't "get over it" but you learn to live with it and the "what ifs" will never go away but, in my experience anyway, no, there was likely nothing you could have done to change the situation.
Sending massive hugs to you and to JuliaK for her improving health situation too.
We’ll be here as and when you can be. Great to see you. Hope to be at the livestream❤ What a wonderful idea for the raffle proceeds. Love the hair btw looks lovely and thick and shiny and it suits you❤
Thank you so much! The hair is definitely taking a bit of getting used to, I still keep swinging my imaginary ponytail out the way 😂
I'll always be here whenever you're up to it!
So much love and udder hands! Thanks!
Gem, my lovely, I’m sorry that traumatic things happened. I’m glad that you’ve been taking time to care for yourself and yours. The calves look adorable! I haven’t been seeing your most recent videos - I ended up needing to look you up & am so glad because the live stream sounds good craic. 🫶
❤❤❤
I am delighted to see you back. But please take all the time you need. I can't wait for the live stream! 🎉❤ I will be buying raffle tickets also to help raise moneybfor auch a good cause
Thank you so much!
The "what if I" after these tragedies always linger. I'm sorry you've had to go through so much but I'm glad you're moving forwards.
I also love Findus it's so bright and cheery and spring like and fills a yellow green hole I hadn't realised I had in my palettes!
Thank you for being so kind.
'Fills a yellow green hole I didn't know I had' - there's a sentence you don't hear every day!!
@@TheColourCave I didn't even notice that so now I'm cackling madly into my cup of tea!
Hullo Gem, I am glad you posted this update and Please know that with all of the changes with TH-cam we can understand how things can and must change. I do not know how anyone maintains a life AND creates videos too! I am glad that your doing better (a relative term in every case). I am sorry for the loss of your friend. I have been through more than a few set-backs like this. I spent time in a rehab hospital and 60%+ of the people who were there with me are gone and not all were natural causes. Counseling is a necessary part of life in these chaotic times. I am hoping to get some raffle tickets and attend at least a part of the stream! It can be tricky as you are Tomorrow +8 hours according to the world clock on my phone! I think you can post a premier time for stream here on TH-cam? and then we can click to be notified when you start! I am looking forward to seeing you again. Until then be safe, take care and believe in your subscribers/followers/friends we are here for You and The Cave!
I will be scheduling the livestream in the next few days, so yes, you'll be able to set a reminder. You are 8 hours behind the UK, so the stream will start 8am 'your time' on the 26th and run until 11am. You can always watch the replay if you can't make it, might be a bit early for you? (although coffee and a livestream might be fun?)
So sorry to hear about your loss! I hope you find the best balance of things for you. Maybe do the things that are easiest and most relaxing for you for the channel? It shouldn’t become something unpleasant or stressful for you. You don’t owe anyone anything, and your quality of life is more important than what viewers want. Do what you love and enjoy, and let the haters go. If it’s fun for you, it won’t matter if fifty thousand people or five people watch. The people that stay will enjoy it with you. What else matters?
I've always stuck by this, when I started my channel I never expected to have as many subscribers, so I can safely say I've never done it if it hasn't been fun. I feel now that I have to move with the times. Thanks for such a kind comment.
🤗🫂I love the new hairstyle, Gem, 😊
🥳live stream! woohoo!
good luck to everyone who joins the raffle! 😄
Absolutely fabulous to see you back, but keep looking after yourself ❤
So good to see you again :) And yay, Inktense video, next to the Neocolor those really are my most favorite art supplies. Do you have to be on the livestream to be able to win a prize, because I probably won't be able to join all the time.
You do not have to be present in the stream to win, you just have to have a ticket. I will contact any absent winners after the stream :)
@@TheColourCave Thanks, I just bought a ticket. I never win anything, but I think the money goes to a very good cause (I know everything about struggling with your mental health) so that alone was reason to buy a ticket.
🤗🤗🤗
🤗🫂
Good to see you Gem, the hair looks fab! As do the calves.
Looking forward to the livestream, it's always good fun
Here's a few Qs for the Q&A section.
Would you rather meet a famous artist or a famous scientist (and who would it be?)
Are there any artists you would like to collaborate with?
Do you have a favourite author or series of books or films?
