    Took away part of the manmade gingham pattern to add your plein air River! I've only just found you and that's what the wiggly traverse felt like to my eye! Wouldn't have been surprised in the least if a duck showed up in that still life! Oh maybe it did show up in the form of the pitcher duck shape! Thank you Sandi, you are delightful in your delight!

    I love, love, love Joan Eardley's work and have seen many of her paintings in real life so many times. I have even spoken with people who knew her (I studied art in Scotland). I have also wandered the cliffs at Catterline, where she painted and saw where she lived on the East Coast where she did her landscapes. Her figures are amazing and would fit in with these modern day aesthetics. I also have that book too! I am so glad you are enjoying her work. 💗💗

    Happy New Year! Sandi, thanks for all the wonderful content you've brought all of us this past year and congrats on reaching 10,000 subs! You freely share so much of yourself with your viewers are we're all richer for it. TH-camrs like you have helped all of us get through these difficult times and created a safe place we can go to get a bit of shelter away from all the scary stuff out there...and you just thought you were sharing your art journey! No, I'm sure you already know that.
    I''m reminded of the scripture from Philippians 4:8-9...
    Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.
    Blessings to you in 2022...I think we're all gonna have to pray 🙏🏼 very hard and keep thinking on those good things.

    What an exciting haul! I believe the measurements from the middle of the level are to find the center of things (aka same measurement on either side). And the ink tense spaces are for mixing or you can sharpen them and add water for watercolor effect. Not sure if they dry solid though. So much goodness! Happy New Year!

    I couldn't get into the ink tense blocks so I let my three year old use them. She broke half of them, which didn't bother me because I hated the plastic container anyways. The way you have them displayed in that white tray, and your sketch books make me want to dig them back out! Happy new year!

    Oh, something about your still life painting is reminiscent of Bonnard. So pretty!
    Also I love Inktense products, but I often have to remind myself that they are not like watercolors (I have the blocks, pencils, & paint pan set). They don't lift off or blend easily. They're kind of like ink. Viviva Color Sheets are like ink too, which I thought was interesting.

    Hi Sandi, I thought your discussion in this video was so important - about how painters, like Joan Eardley, add their own vision to what may look like an uninspiring scene. For Christmas I received a book of paintings by Maud Lewis, and she also made so much of what she saw around her. Wonderful lessons.

    The Inktense wells are to use for water. Wet your brush and rub it on the inktense stick using the well. Fun!!!

    Really enjoyed this, I love the way you actually crack open your supplies and get using them! Also that you are not scared to mix different types of supplies together. I don’t have access to the wider landscape you have but love your still life set ups and how you experiment with them till they work. A question about the inktense sticks, I have the pencils, used them quite a bit till I didn’t, but wondered then as I do now just how lightfast they are? They are very stable once used with water but are they fade resistant. I have not put this to the test….. cowardice maybe!
    Strawberries, at least where I am, are a delicious pale greenish white towards the top where the leaves are, before they turn completely red and the red at that stage is more vermillion than scarlet…. And the insides are always a more gorgeous colour than the outside, but for that you have to eat them! Happy 2022, can’t wait to see more of your work!

      There are lots of videos on TH-cam covering this question. I don't have intense so I can't comment. However I did give up my Prismacolors because many are not lightfast. It is certainly an issue for any work that exists outside of a sketchbook.

    • @SmillyDonut
      @SmillyDonut 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      From my limited knowledge they are not lightfast or at least reliably so.

    In this video I finally get how you use paintings and sketches as "information" for later art works. My style as an artist is, or has been, almost the opposite of yours, which is probably why I learn so much from you! Thanks!

    The holes in the inktense block set is to simulate a sumi ink stone. You put a drop of water and grind your ink stick on it till you get the quantity of ink and value and then apply with a brush
