I have been struggling with depression for most of my adult life. I've been told most artists struggle with one form of depression or another. Mine has started leaning towards bipolar when we lost our youngest son in June 2019. It is so hard losing one of your children. But not a day goes by without memories of him making me smile. I just recently found you CeeCee and broke out my paints and pens, dusted away the cobwebs, and been following you and looking forward to the inspiration you share. I'm going to try and follow your suggestions about putting something down on paper, no matter how small, in hopes to raise me out of my depression. I am a happier person when creating it's just getting going that is the hardest part. I appreciate hearing your story with your own struggles. I hope I can finally spread my artistic wings again and fly. TYFS, Donna, in California.
I am sending you love ❤️ We are in a similar journey after losing our oldest son at 21. I too am turning to art. I hope eventually to be able to journal it but the pain of writing what happened....well you understand ♥️❤️ you are in my prayers 🙏🏻
May you feel the love from the cosmos and beyond. May it bring you peace, clarity, joy and a peaceful heart. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m sending you love, straight to your heart. ❤️
I appreciate the beginner-level concept: I've just bought my first watercolour paints after watching your videos for years. I was just at that stage of "oh no, I don't dare start in case it is a mess/failure". But this picture shows I can start with just a few oblongs. Who knew? Many thanks for your continued inspiration.
As an artist, I have learned that we hesitate to start because we expect perfection. We don’t want others to see our work in fear of judgement. You can do it for yourself. You are not obligated to show anyone. Enjoy the pleasure that you feel in creating and being so focused and relaxed. Your comfort will increase as you continue to create . Have fun! When I finish an artwork, I run like a child to show my husband., “Look what I made!” Paint fearlessly, as children do. :) I have just started learning to watercolor. I have subscribed.
I’m at this same stage right now. I made the doodler pocket book. Now I’ve started the shapes as above. I’m having so much fun, especially mixing the colors! I love gold also! This calms my mind and body. Doodling is great. Thank you Ceecee ♥️
I could never get bored of these watercolor practices and doodles. I love the simplicity of your doodles in particular. It is this series of videos that got me out of a rut and practicing daily with watercolors again.
I really must say I *love* all of these little soft washed color ‘bubbles’ with your embellished pen sketches! I realize they are mainly exercises but think they would be amazing matted individually and framed together in groups of three or 4 ... or 5! They really invite the eye to come closer to see the detail.
All thanks, to your daughter and you, I was able to create something today that I can be proud of; thank you for that. Much love and many blessings, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
I love your watercolor channel it's my favorite and I'm a professional artist. I went to college for art and I am retired tattoo artist. I'm just now picking up water coloring
I bought some of the Kremer pigments! Holy Cow! What a fabulous addition to a watercolor arsenal! CeeCee they are everything you said and more ! Thank you so much, Claudia.
Without you Artists there would be no reason to live. Thank you so much for your colour, dedication and creativity. I could watch you artists all day. Your the best of us and if everyone in this world painted what a world this would be!!! Pure Joy. Love it. So gorgeous. Beautiful, delicate Namaste great One. Keep going xx xx
I watched this video and loved it and decided to make some circles to doodle in. I have been trying to learn how to paint with watercolors for a couple of months and really treasure your videos...I have learned so much. Anyway I gave this a shot and had a lot of fun trying out the little pastel set I bought... I think it’s Prima. When I finished it my little 3-1/2 yo grandson came over by me and said he really liked it a lot and wanted me to put it I. His room. I had to circles left to doodle in and he said he wanted a big circle in one so I made a circle with a heart for him. Since he is obsessed with letters I put a capital A in the other one sunce his name is Andrew. He asked me if the heart was because I love him and of course I said yes. Anyway, thank you so much for all your work with making these videos. I think you are an amazing artis and pretty much love it all. I wanted to include the little painting but I guess you can’t do that here.
what a wonderful story! you brought joy to your grandson through your creativity. if that is not an incentive to keep going, i don't know what is ! thank you so much for sharing that with us. have a beautiful and creative weekend!
I followed your tutorial in this video. My sister loved it so much she framed it and hung it on her wall. I am very new to watercolor with no painting experience except walls in my home. You are an awesome teacher, thank you so much. I love your doodles!
Thank you for this video!! Just what I needed to get the creation back on track. I painted my own version of this along with you and I love how it turned out. Thank you for inspiring so many of us who hit the wall and don’t know where to turn. These simple yet satisfying exercises are so gratifying. ❤️
I don't understand the "dislikes" on anyone's tutorial video. What is there not to like? I ask that as a serious question. This is your style, your personal work, if someone doesn't like it, move along. I just don't understand why someone would unlike it. I thank you for your tutorials. I'm inspired by what appears to be the ease of water colors. I wouldn't even know where to start if people like you didn't offer these how-to videos. I can develop my own style later, but I have to start somewhere, and I'm thankful that people like you are willing to offer this help.
The music is so distracting and unnecessary in these art tutorials. We all have our own music if we want to listen to music, or not. Watch Diane Antone. Calm, non-chattering, right-brain conducive lessons don’t need any music. Please learn how not to lose your audience because of terrible music.
I love what you've done here. The doodling is beautiful and the gold paint adds to the beauty of it. It's very calming watching and listening to you as you create. Thank you for sharing your talent CeeCee.❤️🌹
I have to tell you, I have been drawn to watercolors the past few years... I got the paints... I got the paper... and I've been scared to touch it!!! For 2 YEARS!! This inspired me to get it out and play around. Thank you!! :-) You are fantastic!
I love this little painting, and that Pale Gold is gorgeous. Even I can do something like this. It would be nice to frame as a piece for Autumn. Thank you for sharing this.
Please don't ever think I will get bored watching you create "the same thing" over and over! It's always different even if you think it's too similar, and besides - your art style, colour choices and the things you create with them are why I love your videos! (Well, that and your gentle voice and words!) So if you'd just keep doing what you enjoy and slowly evolving this lovely art style, I'll watch you forever!
I absolutely love these colors. We have purchased a 1920s bungalow and this is pretty much my entire color scheme, inside and outside the house. I’m taking the screenshot from your painting to the paint store. Salsa give me an excellent idea for doing some small hard around the house and I also sent it to my mom who does painting along with her husband because they want to paint some things for the house.
I found this piece on Pinterest and pinned it in my watercolor folder. Lo and behold here you are creating it. There is something that I call random perfection. You never see it coming. It swoops in just in the nick of time and raises you up. Your piece inspires me to keep it simple, not try so hard and not to be my own worst critic. Thank you so much. I enjoy your channel.
Love the background music. It so perfect for this lovely calming piece. I am so glad I watched this. I am going to try this later today. Love it. TFS. I have posted this to Pinterest.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on feeling inadequate- you are such an inspiration! I’ve been doodling for years and even was chastised for it as a child by a teacher who said “ why does she have to doodle in the margins !! Thank God I had a Mom who encouraged creativity because my Dad was a very talented commercial artist who never let us have coloring books- he said make your own magic! Lol sorry to ramble- I just am so inspired by you and will do my own version of this tonight!! Your voice is even soothing! Bravo for helping us all! Xxoo
Love this technique and your color choices. Neutrals are relaxing. I'm waiting for my little paint blobs to dry so I can get started. I even interrupted this video to dash to Staples for pens. They didn't have exactly the type you are using and I had to buy a box of 12, but they are a waterproof micro point Uni-ball.
Merci sister, de nous démontrer à quel point avec si peu, en faire un petit chef d’œuvre, j’adore les couleurs additionnées de la dorure et du dooling, bien hâte d’essayer ça !
Thank you for sharing this great demonstration. I am just starting my watercolour journey so as a beginner this is a great place to start. I have been a cardmaker for a number of years and as someone has already commented these panels would make lovely cards. It is easy to become down or depressed during lockdown and I would encourage everyone to try painting or drawing. It really can help and is suitable for all ages and abilities.
I always get mesmerized when I watch you create twin!! What a beautiful piece of art! Love everything about it! And as always you get me inspired! So thank you for that! Might try something similar! Maybe not do several small blocks but one little larger! We'll see! Wish you a fantastic day!! Artsy hugs! x
thank you so much for this sweet comment, twin! i saw your take on this doodling and i love it! i just love how everyone's interpretation of even simple lines can be different. it is so awesome! wishing you a wonderful and creative week! xx
I enjoyed my little practice with this idea. I got some funny results and laughed so hard .I needed a little joy in my life .This is great therapy .Thank you for sharing !
Beautiful neutrals together... I love the gold accents. I think silver accents would be beautiful on the dark blue... I do love the white also... Everything just pops without being overwhelming❤☕
I really enjoyed watching you create this painting. The colors and simplicity of design, yet giving the eye lots to look at, are intriguing. The gold is gorgeous. I look forward to trying it and appreciate that you gave the names of the supplies that will allow success. Even without drawing skills, I can doodle something.
This is such a lovely and easy exercise that I must do something similar myself. I'm thinking a mini book with one doodle per tiny page. Thank you Ceecee and thanks for the link for the gold paint.
I have tried this and I love it! I do not have gold but I have used other colors and I loved it it turned out beautiful it was simple relaxing and the person who got the card loved it! Thank you for sharing!
the Kremer Pigments pale gold watercolor paint i used is sold online in the US at bit.ly/2HELIBx and in Europe at bit.ly/2HELIBx
creationsceecee where do you order it from to Canada? Also -where do you order your ph martin’s pen-white from? Thanks

Sending you hugs. Keep a doodling pad beside your bed, a colouring book near your kettle, a notebook and pen by your sofa, so on and so forth. Much 🧡
Sending you a sweet warm hug. Yes, use the energy to create something on the paper 💐
I am sending you love ❤️ We are in a similar journey after losing our oldest son at 21. I too am turning to art. I hope eventually to be able to journal it but the pain of writing what happened....well you understand ♥️❤️ you are in my prayers 🙏🏻
May you feel the love from the cosmos and beyond. May it bring you peace, clarity, joy and a peaceful heart. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m sending you love, straight to your heart. ❤️
God bless you. I hope it’s still working and you’ve climbed out of that very dark hole and found some piece ofbpeace
I love that you do not talk constantly. Watching you is very relaxing and inspiring. Thank you!

Enjoy the pleasure that you feel in creating and being so focused and relaxed.
Your comfort will increase as you continue to create . Have fun!
When I finish an artwork, I run like a child to show my husband., “Look what I made!”
Paint fearlessly, as children do. :)
I have just started learning to watercolor. I have subscribed.
I’m at this same stage right now. I made the doodler pocket book. Now I’ve started the shapes as above. I’m having so much fun, especially mixing the colors! I love gold also! This calms my mind and body. Doodling is great. Thank you Ceecee ♥️
What I love about this is the simplicity, and the encouragement that art doesn't have to be perfect to be perfect!
These simple but elegant drawings over soft toned colors are so charming!
I agree with you.
I could never get bored of these watercolor practices and doodles. I love the simplicity of your doodles in particular. It is this series of videos that got me out of a rut and practicing daily with watercolors again.
Simple and elegant designs on soft colors look beautiful
It is a beautiful work of art! Thank you!

I realize they are mainly exercises but think they would be amazing matted individually and framed together in groups of three or 4 ... or 5!

This is the painting that got me started. I'm still trying but still struggling but love the doodling for my well being. Thang yku
I love the combination of green and gold!
All thanks, to your daughter and you, I was able to create something today that I can be proud of; thank you for that.
Much love and many blessings,
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
Love the art, the choice of your background music,and your soft, cheerful, melodic voice. The three together make for a very enjoyable video. Thanks!
I love your watercolor channel it's my favorite and I'm a professional artist. I went to college for art and I am retired tattoo artist. I'm just now picking up water coloring

What a great sense of design! That was lovely and so soothing to watch!
Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful. I love the pallette
These would make great little greeting cards.
Was just going to say the same thing.
And gift tags.
I would love have a canvasback with this picture and I think my friend love to have too. 😊
ditto
Was thinking wallpaper, too
The uni-ball black pen has been my favorite pen for over 15 years now…..excellent tip….great ink!
Loved this video for so many reasons. You said what colors you used to mix, you showed close ups. Real time. Calming. Very good quality.
Sometimes simple is so elegant that it rises to a surprising level of sophistication - I absolutely love it ....
Would love to see an entire painting in that color scheme. So classy.
Do check mine aswell. Thanks
wow, that was beautiful. I like that you mention that it got you out of a slump. I think I would like doing that too!
I watched this video and loved it and decided to make some circles to doodle in.

I followed your tutorial in this video. My sister loved it so much she framed it and hung it on her wall. I am very new to watercolor with no painting experience except walls in my home. You are an awesome teacher, thank you so much. I love your doodles!
Reminds me of the 1960s greeting cards my mother used to love to buy -- and keep for herself 😊 Same whimsical style.
なんだか日本の和紙に描いたみたい
大人っぽさと可愛らしさもある、ステキな作品ですね
ありがとうございました
Your doodles are never boring to me. Always inspiring and relaxing at the same time 🙂🕊♥️
I love watching you-I never feel like you are repetitive-I always learn something new.

I love your watercolor warm-ups! I am always inspired to get my watercolors out and play! TFS!!
I love your doodling with watercolor and gold. Can't wait to start creating. Thank you for your inspirational TH-cam videos.
The tones are gorgeous and I just love the gold
I really love how you combine watercolour + pen drawing + metallic accents
I love what you've done here. The doodling is beautiful and the gold paint adds to the beauty of it. It's very calming watching and listening to you as you create. Thank you for sharing your talent CeeCee.❤️🌹
Love this. Minimalist and modern but fine details and neat, concise lines.
This is the first time I have seen your work, just love it
Lovely, so relaxing and the music is soothing. Can you buy the music? X
I love this one. The gold is awesome and the black and white on the rectangles, WOW.
This is absolutely gorgeous! And yes...this is definitely speaking cards to me! I can see a lovely fall version with golds, oranges, and reds!
Oh my! That box in the 2nd row on the left.... I adore!!!!! You make it look so easy!!!! I'll keep practicing!
You continue to bring us joy and inspiration CeeCee. Can’t thank you enough.
This was grand. I’m a calligrapher and liked the uniball pen and gold.
Really beautiful. I could see a lot of your paintings/designs on fabric.
I agree! This one would look really nice!
I do as well - I’d buy them
Both the gold and pearly white add so much to your work.
So very lovely.
Cheers
Lisa
Love, love, love this piece. I need to do something like this for a friend for Christmas. So beautiful! Thanks for sharing it.
I love your paintings... I also love that you get straight in and paint, and don’t provide too much commentary... it’s almost meditative...
So lovely CeeCee! The gold is soooooo YOU! Inspiring, as always.
Музыка красивая такая! А акварели с дудлингом - волшебные! Спасибо!!! Получила наслаждение, наблюдая, как рождаются рисунки!
благодарю вас
I have always loved your color sense and doodling. You make a simple picture outstanding.
Love the color palletee...love the doodles...love the touch of gold, white and black!!
I am in love with your painting too. I can hardly wait to try your techniques!
I have to tell you, I have been drawn to watercolors the past few years... I got the paints... I got the paper... and I've been scared to touch it!!! For 2 YEARS!! This inspired me to get it out and play around. Thank you!! :-) You are fantastic!
Yay! have fun!
I love this little painting, and that Pale Gold is gorgeous. Even I can do something like this. It would be nice to frame as a piece for Autumn. Thank you for sharing this.
I have never painted in my life! I am a Quilter! and somehow this channel came across my 'feed'... I just love all textile arts!
Neutrals are gentle & peaceful, great painting feels peaceful looking at it. Tq👍

Lovely, as always. Very relaxing watching & listening to your process. Thanks for sharing.
I found this piece on Pinterest and pinned it in my watercolor folder. Lo and behold here you are creating it.
There is something that
I call random perfection.
You never see it coming. It swoops in just in the nick of time and raises you up. Your piece inspires me to keep it simple, not try so hard and not to be my own worst critic.
Thank you so much. I enjoy your channel.
I love this page so much! It would even make a beautiful card front (I guess smaller)! Thanks, CeeCee!
I love watching you paint.

I too loved this painting Ceecee. Simple...but not simple !
thank you so much, CB!
Oh my god, id love to have that painting hanging in my living room! Thanks for this video, love to try this one day
Merci sister, de nous démontrer à quel point avec si peu, en faire un petit chef d’œuvre, j’adore les couleurs additionnées de la dorure et du dooling, bien hâte d’essayer ça !
merci beaucoup, Sister!
Love the beautiful simplicity of this piece and that gold 😍💕

I was in awe.

Whoa!
I always get mesmerized when I watch you create twin!! What a beautiful piece of art! Love everything about it! And as always you get me inspired! So thank you for that! Might try something similar! Maybe not do several small blocks but one little larger! We'll see! Wish you a fantastic day!! Artsy hugs! x
thank you so much for this sweet comment, twin! i saw your take on this doodling and i love it! i just love how everyone's interpretation of even simple lines can be different. it is so awesome! wishing you a wonderful and creative week! xx
wow-wow-wow!!!! simply gorgeous!
I enjoyed my little practice with this idea. I got some funny results and laughed so hard .I needed a little joy in my life .This is great therapy .Thank you for sharing !
This video made me start with watercolors! Thank you! So calm and satisfying..
Beautiful. I'm inspired to try a bit larger version of a single rectangle for card fronts. Thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful neutrals together... I love the gold accents. I think silver accents would be beautiful on the dark blue... I do love the white also... Everything just pops without being overwhelming❤☕
Lovely! I could watch you paint and draw, and listen to you talk all day long. Thanks for sharing!
Oh my, it's so simple yet so elegant!
These are so pretty, I love that golden watercolour.
I really enjoyed watching you create this painting. The colors and simplicity of design, yet giving the eye lots to look at, are intriguing. The gold is gorgeous. I look forward to trying it and appreciate that you gave the names of the supplies that will allow success. Even without drawing skills, I can doodle something.
This is so pretty, delicate, soft and calming💕
You are a blessing! Your voice-overs bring me such peace and watching you helps me believe I can experiment with this medium. I thank you sooo much!!
Your tutorials and your art will never be boring. I love it.
This is lovely. So modern
Thank you for another wonderful video. You communicate such a sense of calm through your colors, proportion, and spacing. Ahhhh...
thank you so much, Nancy!
I completely agree.
I hope you know how wonderful and talented you are.
I do! And feel so relaxed and joyful as I learn!
what a sweet comment! thank you so much.
This is such a lovely and easy exercise that I must do something similar myself. I'm thinking a mini book with one doodle per tiny page. Thank you Ceecee and thanks for the link for the gold paint.
I have tried this and I love it! I do not have gold but I have used other colors and I loved it it turned out beautiful it was simple relaxing and the person who got the card loved it! Thank you for sharing!
I like be this one too! The colors are so appealing.
Merci de ce partage ! c'est super !
Love your botanical little doodles, so cute and so relaxing! ❤
