I am so impressed… such beautiful nature shots. The fragile beauty of nature that we have to save… I also love your painted impressions very much, Sarah
We're thankful you're feeling better! Gorgeous video, painting, music and artist. I normally don't post my paintings online, but how can I resist all the inspiration you've graciously shared with us? Thank you Sarah for being such a generous, beautiful person.
Hello Sarah, hope you are feeling better. I have been down two week with flu and have been spending my time binging on your videos. Thanks you so very much for all the work you put into these videos. So instructive, inspiring and beautiful to watch. I love your sketchbooks and your work. Greetings from Bavaria Germany.
I love love love winter colors! Never understood how people only see gray and have always wondered why more artists don’t paint winter scenes (too cold and dark I guess!) Your paintings are lovely.
Such beautiful sky colours on your video and the photo you shared at the end. Your painting is so pretty, captured the cool and freshness of the scenery. I’m always taking photos of the sky colours. I’m going to paint one of my photos tomorrow. We don’t get snow that often here in England. The snow on the fence the other day was like a gold shimmer of glitter when the sun shon and the snow on the ground had a sliver glitter shimmer to it with this cool blue. Ahhhhh lovely. Plenty of photos taken, time to paint them. 😊😀
Ooo what a gorgeous reference!😍 I might have to give this DTIYS a try, what a neat spin on it! You did a beautiful painting, the way you lay down strokes reminds me of Bob Ross, not necessarily in style but in the fluidity and confidence and variety of technique. Gorgeous. Have a great Christmas. 🎄💖
Love love love this video!! Not only do you inspire me to paint but to look with new eyes at the beauty that surrounds us!! Thank you! So glad you’re feeling better!
Time to get a few huskies and a sled... lovely painting! I can not believe how pretty it is where you live! Does your cat like the snow? My dog loves it. It is like walking a happy bunny instead of a dog when it is cold outside. He just loves it.
The kitties don't love the snow, but they tolerate it. They usually go out for 1-2 hours then come inside for a few hours. They do this a few times a day. Whereas in the summer they are outside from sunrise to sunset!
Happy you've your voice back, Sarah 🙂 Your paintings are always gorgeous. And those Scottish sunsets and sunrises are fleeting yet spectacular (same for us in Wales). So hard to capture in a limited time, as photos never do real life landscape justice, yet you made snow look effortless! Gives me hope when you say you learned a lot after painting a stunning scene. I think, although I'm a beginner, that watercolour always surprises and teaches even the most seasoned artists (pun again, unintentional, lol). Love the look of these palette colours. Will have to look through your back list videos to see which pigments you favour now you live in a Northern hemisphere cool climate (excuse my ignorance, but I don't know if you originally come from America or Canada). I mention this as I'm trying to build a versatile palette for UK seasons. I love Jane Blundell and the information she provides about pigments and favourites on her blog. Yet, I find, British greens, earths, skies and such are a completely different color palette to our Aussie cousins. I'm sure you've heard this basic knowledge question before, but what are your favourite pigments for British or Northern hemisphere seasons? Any surprises? Any disappointments? Any essentials? Any special mixes (rather than buying £££ mixed special effects paints)? I'd be super interested. I'm divided between watercolour and gouache right now, so your channel is perfect!! Thanks 👍😁♥️
Thank you! I'm constantly experimenting with different color combinations. Even though this palette has 12 wells, I typically only use 3-6 colors in a single painting. fearlessbrush.com/my-favorite-art-supplies-top/ in my supply page I show what colors are in the palette (under 'gouache' section)
Gasp!!! You must have been born with a rigger in your hands, you made painting branches look like child's play. The chances of playing "Surprise!" in the snow are slim if you're a black cat... Flokie easily won that one 😄
I love using the long hair rigger for branches, I hold it really loosely and kinda let it do it's thing. It's so fun! And yes, Vader has a major disadvantage in the snow 😂bless
Ohh yay a Sarah Burns Challenge!! I really appreciate & love 💕 this!!! I am definitely going to try it. The timing is perfect since today is the last of another challenge I’m finishing now! Gorgeous scenery everywhere, even with the snowy cold weather there! We’re expecting a severe cold snap this weekend & next week in North Mississippi. Possibly highs in the low 20 degrees Fahrenheit & low temperatures in the upper single digits Fahrenheit. ❄️🥶 Glad to hear your voice again & see you feeling better ❤. Thanks for sharing this time & fun with us. Have a great day!!
Yes, delays in the US too. Stinks. And thanks for the pro tip... not everything needs to be vibrant. Use some muted colors to draw attention to the main focus. Thank you!
This has been my first winter in Oregon. Though. Technically still not winter for a few more days haha. Unfortunately my job keeps me inside while the sun is up but there is absolutely so much beauty in winter, even without tons of light! I'm happy you're feeling better! :D Your painting and this video is so relaxing and inspiring. :)
Lovely video Sarah, glad you're on the mend. My family have been very poorly with chest infections that are doing the rounds. Love your snowy painting, what paper were you painting on ? Sadly l didnt get out much in the snow as it was treacherous on our steep hill, plus l got a leg injury😟 You asked me a few weeks ago to let you know when snow was in Glencoe 😀 well l guessed you would have seen plenty of weather warnings for round the country. Look after yourself and have a very happy Christmas Alioban x
Aww sorry to hear that, hope you mend soon! Yes I saw the weather warnings, we were snowed in for a few days! I imagine the mountains were far worse, I really wish I could go but not quite yet. I hope the snow lasts through the winter.
I keep looking for the brushes but I didn’t know about the waiting list, I need to find it. It really has been cold here too. Hope you continue to get better quickly. Take care and Merry Christmas.
Have been checking on your brushes, I was worried my email notification didn’t work 😅. They will be a birthday gift to myself, rather than a Christmas gift. It all works 😊. The winter scenes on your walk are sooooo beautiful. You live in such a gorgeous area! Might have to see if I can do an interpretation of that scene when I take a break from baking later.
I know I'm so sorry they are delayed!! I wish I could do something about it buy we are all at the mercy of the infrastructure which seems to be struggling. But when they finally do launch, it will be a great day for painting 😄
@@SarahBurnsStudio Definitely a struggle that so many businesses are facing right now with the shipping / mail issues… I feel for them! Thankful there’s nothing I urgently need, but I’m sure it’s a real inconvenience for a lot of people 🥺

Hi Sarah, curious, do you prefer painting on an easel, or flat, or both? I find it hard to really “see” what I’m doing flat, but it feels awkward to use my tabletop easel. Perhaps an easel I can get under would be better. Appreciate your thoughts. Lovely video. Hello from BC. 🇨🇦
I prefer an easel but I have such a small space that I often don't bother setting it up. When I paint flat my neck and shoulders and back hurt from leaning forward.
No, I'm not on the northern islands (outer Hebrides). They have a more extreme version of short days. For us, we have about 6 hours 33 minutes of daylight this time of year, but the most northerly tip of the outer Hebrides have 5 hrs 45mins.

@@SarahBurnsStudio It's on IG. Not your same scene, but the one at 1.04 in your beautiful video
Wow😘
This is like moomins midwinter xxx
I’m a winter child! This video speaks to my heart in all ways! Thank you so much! ❄️❤❄️
I love snow so much!
Lovely. I do love the Winter colours too and the sunrises.

Thank you Judi, and I'm glad it is inspiring!
Me too! I love that we get to see Scotland like this and it makes me look through new eyes, love it!
lovely landscape for a DITYS, going to have to give it a try 😀
The way you capture light is beautiful... so glad you're feeling better!
Thank you so much!
snow in foreground looks 'glowy' and cold just right... you look like yourself again, it's been awhile. love the winter work!
Thanks - Glad to be feeling slightly normal again 😆
Wow-beautiful!❄️Love the feel of the winter light.

I love your brush techniques.
Thank you! Cheers!
Another beautifully filmed video! Winter is so incredibly magical. Great idea for a challenge. I like your emphasis on 'your own style'.
Yea I dont really see a point unless people stay true to their own aesthetic and techniques :)
Everything about this is fabulous. Your video's get better and better!
Beautiful place, painting and music. Thank you!
So serene. I'm glad you are feeling better .
Thank you!
I'm really glad that you're getting better, and it is sooo good to see you so relaxed and happy. Thanks for this lovely video, Sarah. 😊

Do you live right at the top where it's very close to Norway?
Love your moggies. Stunning video again, just had to Shazam that song.

Could use this for a dutch xmas card; imagine me and my bright halleluia on a dutch scene. Would not work lol
So Beautiful………xoxox
What is the difference between gouache and acrylics?
acrylic is permanent, plastic base
gouache is more like watercolor, gum arabic base
@@SarahBurnsStudio Thank you and Happy holidays!
Have you read Robert Henri...
I know of him
