I love the idea of keeping your travel journal supplies in an old pillow case holder. Wow.

[@beverlyhollenbeck3406]

I KNEW I kept those for a reason!

[@rubyzkid]

Thanks for the great video. I love watercolor but do not feel confident enough to make "art". The journal is a great place to experiment and no one else is going to see it unless I want them to. I am definitely going to be journaling with watercolors.

[@gayleselby1665]

Thank you! What a joyful attitude you bring to art!

[@twobearscrafting]

Wow, this is so cool!
My mom just sent some pictures to my children so they can do a little water coloring, mail back to grandma and she will do a little and mail back to kids. This would be so perfect! I would love to see some video's geared towards children.
Thanks!!
:O)

[@bigscrapkitty]

I'd love to see more videos like this on art journaling!

[@taminnc]

What great ideas

[@FeliciaFollum]

oh cool...I absolutely love watercolors. I don't have many watercolor videos up (other than the supplies which you may have seen) but its certainly my medium of choice. I liked your watercolor pencil drawings. I watched them a couple days ago. see ya around YT!

[@spaztaylor]

I would love to see using these watercolors in card making.

[@forjazznjava]

You are a wonderful and inspiring person. thanks for the video

[@talishemes]

this is beautiful! I just had my first watercolor class yesterday and I think I'm gonna love working with them :)

[@boblosan]

I would like to see watercolor instructions. Such as - how to paint grass with flowers in it. Or maybe how to paint a rainbow for a card. Things that I can use to create cards or scrapbook pages! I am a subscriber. Thank you so much for the chance to win!

[@dchurch2012]

Great teknig.I will have them.

[@narejongen]

music toooo loud, but the video as such is very nice and informative

[@wingedprinceofrose]

how do you control water flow from the waterbrush? I got a waterbrush and every time I try to paint too much water comes out and my colors are just...like almost water haha

[@FeliciaFollum]

I'm super excited to start a travel journal this summer. I'm going to India and plan to take several backpacking trips...Thanks for this. I shared my travel kit as a response...Though I think i might add a journal like the one you have...Also how do the pigments of the watercolors compare to Winsor and Newton (or the Professional equivalent).

[@victorsandoval3017]

your awesome

[@mafermononoke]

Where can I find Sakura products here in México? .-. I would love to have a watercollor kit, but I can't find it anywhere -3-

[@FeliciaFollum]

Thanks! I have a set that I really like that includes a water container (small but perfect for me). I have a water brush though I don't use it a lot. Did you see the response video I shared? It shows my kit....anyways. Thanks for the extra info.

[@MaryNSC]

O I love Sakura I would Love to see stamp coloring Please..

[@wingedprinceofrose]

@SakuraColorProducts No just too much water comes out of it-I think I squeeze the brush too hard (I squeeze my pencils hard when I draw so)
Okay thank you very much :D I appreciate your help!

[@anushkab3994]

Are you using watercolor paper

[@celestialjunipers6829]

Watercoloring isn't just for youngsters.

[@texasrose76]

Love the video but the music is very distracting and way too loud. Enjoyed the video though. Thanks for sharing.

[@cinthia206]

U are sweet!!!! :)

[@beverlyhollenbeck3406]

I agree with your fans. You're instruction is fun and clear, but the music is annoyingly repetitive and WAY too loud for background. Rather than enhancing the vid, I'm afraid the music detracts considerably, particularly after the first run-through.
