Three years later, this is super. You are often my inspiration. Thank you. I am currently enjoying your videos,even those I have already watched before!
Just lovely. I hate to say this, but I have a huge set of the Inktense pencils that I have made exactly 2 cards with. I didn't start really dabbling in art until I was at least 65 years old (now 70) and have taken a scattershot approach. I can usually tell if a product I see used is something I will enjoy playing with, so while I still have a lovely allowance each week, I save up and buy the higher quality stuff. In fact, it is amazing what one can amass in a 5 year period. Because of these videos I am learning that nothing is so precious that it must be used only for something spectacular...hence, these products are beginning to see the light of day. And for that alone, CeeCee, I thank you so very much. Your encouragement is truly appreciated.
Yayyyyyy! get those puppies out and play! oh boy, i'm so happy you've decided to use them. have a wonderful and creative weekend!
Great to see this post! I've just started drawing and painting and I'm 67, so a late starter too. I love it so much, and wonder why I didn't do it before. Lack of time of course. I love being retired, and feel I'm playing truant every day! Love this artist's work, she's so inspiring.
Thank you ceecee, fran rogo, and mellyju. This encourages me. I knew i wanted to try watercolor and since i am working to minimize felt it was the best to take traveling. I am 65 this year and looking forward to having more time for myself as soon as i retire...next year.
Me too, soon to be 70 and only been experimenting with art recently... Love your videos CeeCee, so inspiring. Thank you
One of the things I always love most about your paintings is how you use color to show depth... You are so good at it CeeCee:-)
thank you so much for this comment! i appreciate it a lot. have a wonderful weekend!
Timing was exquisite this morning when I found this video. I came upon an unused set of Faber Castell water color pencils at the Salvation Army store yesterday for $3. I played with them a little bit but found your instruction to be informative for me. They are different, but I can see them being super cool as a tote along when not in my studio. Thank you again Ceecee for helping us to understand how to use our supplies correctly.
I really enjoyed the way you created a reference. I often see inspiration in pieces of jewelry, a pattern in a fabric, or even textures in about anything I come across. I see these as fragments, or snapshots in my brain that I carry until I recognize a spot for them. I love watching old movies. The settings and costumes will also give me ideas. The use of the pencils was wonderful. I have a huge set of Inktense Pencils and struggle to find ways to utilize them. Beautiful piece. Very peaceful and quiet to my eye.
thank you, Kathy. taking inspiration from old movies is a good idea; i do have a few of them so i'll pay attention next time.
I love your instructions and comments. It helps me to paint.
So inspiring. Your steady hands are marvelous. The way you balance your artwork is magic.
thank you, barbara!
Love this!! I have the pencils....will try to use them both ways, thankx!
Love love the colors and the simple layout! You are always an inspiration CC..😎☕
I am addicted to your videos. I have learned so much
makes me want to get my inktense pencils out again. I don't use them often enough after watching you. thanks as always for sharing.
Beautiful! I love relaxing and having my coffee to your videos. I love inktense pencils. I just wish they were lightfast.
Hi Cece. I’m so glad I found you. I’ve had my set of 24 Inktense pencils for a few years and I never knew what to do with the m. Thanks for this tutorial. I will arrange my own still life flower arrangement and go from there! This is very therapeutic.
I love all of your vídeos/Paintings you are amazing, I prefer abstract over realistic art and you are a great artist to follow, thanks for showing your techniques.
Hi CeeCee, I picked up my Derwent pencils today! I’ve been saving this video so I can reference it and see your process. Your videos clear the stress from my head, a great way to recharge my mind.
I’m trying to stay loose and not so rigid in my art. Cheers!
thanks and have fun with the pencils! let me know how it turned out.
Love, Love, Love your work. Thank you for sharing your gift!
Yeah you did the ribbon. It did need it. I love it❤️
Love the color choice, so fun and different. I need to dig out my inktense blocks and pencils. But, lol, I use my paintbrush on the pencil like you.
thank you! yes, i used to love grabbing the paint from the pencil better when i first used them, but there's also something about seeing the pencil marks underneath the diluted paint for added texture. i love both methods.
Love watching you paint and I wonder what watching you draw the ribbons make it so hypnotizing?
Always look forward to watching you in the morning. Love the color combo for today and I enjoy Derwent Inktense pencils also. I find they are great for shading. Have a super colorful day Ceecee!
thank you and yes, you are correct.... shading with them is a joy.
I loved watching the process. Gorgeous results!
Very pretty, love the colours you have chosen 😊🌿🌿
Yes love this one , love the colors
Beautiful !! Thanks for sharing.
Girl I must say sometimes while watching your videos I think to myself nooooo Cee Cee don’t put that color is there. But then as they say in Tennessee you bring it on home and it turns out amazing! I absolutely love your Art, thank you for teaching the rest of us to step out of our comfort zone. I wanna be a Cee Cee when I grow up🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 P.s. Iam 69😂
Mesmerising and beautiful x
I used my Inktense pencils with you today. Thanks for the inspiration.
awesome! i hope you had fun :-)
Really enjoyed watching your process with the Inktense, they were the first thing I saw as I must have, but sadly I am not a lover of them. I don't like the residue they leave behind and I have used them both the ways you showed. After having said that you obviously get the best out of them because your page is so beautiful, loved the pop of pink. Tfs xo
Elizabeth Naisbitt could it be the paper you are using that you don't like the result?
You are so amazingly creative and talented! :-) Watching you do this is amazing, thank you! 💖
thank you so much, Jasper.
A beautiful painting, the inktense pencils are amazing. I don't have them, only a black one, but I do paint with inktense blocks. Wonderful, thanks CeeCee!
Mieke, thank you. you can do the same with your blocks. you can grab the color directly from the block to paint.
creationsceecee Thanks! Yes, it's amazing ink and permanent after drying as well 🎈
I would like to buy some Inktense blocks to paint on fabrics and sew some bags and pouches
Mieke Middelhuis itried ink tense blocks on fabric but faded a lot when washed even after hear setting.
thank you for your advice, I think we have to use a fabric medium but I don't know which ...^^
You are such an inspiration!! Thank you!! I will set aside my fear and use mine!! 😁💜
This is so pretty. I'm so enjoying these videos. Thanks for sharing. :)
Great idea about the reference material! :) And the result is of course BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE it when you speak FRENCH!!! Such a beautiful language not to be shared...what a great way to make your own composition!! have a blessed day!! xoxo stephie

J'adore vos réalisations !! Vous m'inspirez !! Je suis française j'habite le sud de la France Uzès dans le gard ! Très heureuse de vous suivre .. légèreté et couleurs .. ! Le meilleur pour vous de tout coeur !!!

friendly
béatrice
avec plaisir, béatrice! et un gros merci pour le gentil commentaire. bon weekend!
I love this CeeCee, just so pretty. The colors are great, wasn't sure at first. I should have known better, right? Thank you:-)
I am debating whether I should buy these pencils. Are they more difficult to use compared to regular watercolor pencils? Are they easy to blend? How are they different? I wonder if they are like markers. As I watch you, you make it look so easy bec you already know what you are doing. But for beginners who have not used it before, are they worth it and easy to manipulate as far as blending the colors. My intention is to combine them with regular watercolor paints. Apply it in areas where it needs some brightening effect unless this is a standalone pencils. Appreciate a response. Thank you
Thanks CEE CEE for your response to the sharpener diabocle. I will try the Staples brand. I have nothing to lose.
CeeCee , This was so fun to watch. I'm curious about your color choices. They are so nice. How do you choose your color palette? It's always a struggle for me. Thank you CeeCee.
Joni
thank you, Joni! the color choice seems to be going with my moods. sometimes i need bright bold colors, sometimes more pastels. for this one, it seems to be bold and in the cool tones. i usually try either do cool tones or warm tones separately, unless i want something to pop then i'll use a warm color for the background and use cool tones for the main focus . sometimes it's the reverse, warm over cool background. again it all depends on my mood. i suggest looking up color theory and color wheels. it really helps when you're stuck.
So this was great....I have all those intense pencils and rarely use them as well...so I found this very exciting CeeCee. I love that you are so open to using other water media.You are indeed a kindred spirit. I did my own version of this painting and may send it to you. I based it on your still life set up but did mine before I watched yours...lol...then I did another version afterwards. I want to find my own style but I love yours so much that it is hard not to copy. Oh well, imitation is the highest form of flattery they say. Thanks again.
oh, Betty, i'm sure you can find your own beautiful style! but feel free to use my art as inspiration for your practices. that's why i'm making these videos. as long as it for your own personal use, and a mention of credit if you post online, than i'm all for allowing people to copy. Now go play!
Adoro que hagas el proceso entero, gracias
Love this. Thank you.
Beautiful!!!!
Hi Cece,
I've been starting every morning with you while I'm having my tea and waking up. I've been meaning to write and I'm sorry I havent.
I just wanted to let you know the short vacation you took really helped. You have been doing some great stuff. Everyday it seems there's been something different and new. You seem to push yourself a bit further. I appreciate all you share with us. Thank you.
Also, the inktense is a bit different because it's ink, but I love them too. The colors are so clear and vibrant. I just love them and combine them with my regular watercolor pencils too. Thanks once again for all you share with us.💜💜💜

I Agree Kathy Brenneman, I love how CeeCee has really been pushing herself to explore her art experience and we all get to be a part of it! This is so fun to watch her talent expand as she explores and pushes the mind to new realms. It is so exciting each morning to enjoy my coffee with her and just watch the process:-)
thank you so much, Kathy, for this sweet comment. i'm so happy my videos have inspired you to pick up that practice as well. pushing the boundaries of my skills is what i need to do at the moment in order to discover my style. i'm appreciating the fact that i get to do this full time. i'm very grateful for that and also for the vacation i was gifted with... you are correct, it did me a lot of good. have a wonderful and creative day!
I totally agree !!
Bravo Ceece :)
Lovely. I also have those pencils and hesitate to use them.
thank you, Kim, but please don't hesitate. what's the worse than can happen? that you might like what you did? :-) have fun! enjoy!
Beautiful 💖
Awesome!
Challenge accepted ! Thank you 😊 simply gorgeous !
Sorry, and the pigma micron does not damage been used in that textured paper??
How do you keep the points on your Derwerts sharp. I have bought so many different sharpeners and have not been able to get anyone of them to work without breaking the point off or the lead is in the pencil crooked. Do you have any suggestions?
i suppose i hit lucky with the electric sharpener i got from Staples (Staples brand too). however, i have noticed that it is starting to break the leads too. i guess they have a short life cycle. i purchased mine about 2 years and it think it's time i purchase another one. sorry if i don't have any suggestions.
CeeCee - Did you make the watercolor booklet yourself or is it available for purchase somewhere?
i put it together myself with Canson XL watercolor paper and used the coptic stitch to bind everything together. there's a tutorial by Sea Lemon on youtube that i followed for the binding.
I’m going through your back catalog of videos and watched this one as I have Inktense pencils in my stash and needed ideas, thanks! Love the leaves alone, but the line work you did really makes it all pop. I’m curious as to whether or not you have tried the Inktense palettes that have recently been released. Would love your feedback on them.
great idea thanks..iPad!!!
