This is wonderful. May I ask what hardware you use to record your videos? I want to get set up to do simple overhead demo videos but have no idea what I need to get. Thanks! I always love your videos.
I’ve learned so many things from you but my favorite thing about you is that you let us see the difficulties along the way. We all have them but so many don’t share them.
It’s for precisely the reasons mentioned early in the video that I left a new, fledgling commercial art career 40+ years ago and instead went into healthcare. Nursing school required much time, disallowing time for creativity, so it withered. I left my beloved nursing career when things went south during “pandemic” which has forever changed that field. I’m now into year two of a sabbatical (some might call it retirement after 2 years, but that’s entirely too sedate a word for my preferences) and am now playing with watercolors and your videos are some of my favorites. The fear of a blank canvas/sheet of paper can be greater than a disaster in the operating room, watching your videos helps lessen that. Thank you for sharing such beauty, vulnerability and sensitivity to a world greatly in need of such things.
For me, creative bliss comes from the act of creating, not the finished art piece. More often than not, the finished art piece leaves me feeling incomplete and very humbled. I feel the bliss from taping down that piece of watercolor paper and setting out my paints. From swirling my brush in my favorite pink, red or, yellow then watching it wash from dark to light on the page. If I hope for certain outcome, I'm most likely disappointed in the end. So, I recognize the joy I get from the creation process. ❤
I have been saving your videos to a watch-later playlist. I have been feeling that I want to get back into watercolor. I used to be pretty good when I was in high school, but now I am 66 years old. It has been a while since I picked up a brush. I have a picture of my beloved friend's house. They passed away in 2021. The kids are selling the property and I have been so sad looking at the realtor's photos. I have wanted to paint the old stone house for years. I think I am running out of time, so I need to get to it! Your videos have inspired me to get going again! Thank you!
I have to stop myself from that "perfectionist" bug. Not only is the process more relaxed and enjoyable--lots more enjoyable--but the 'less perfect' art is actually prettier! I end up with a more artistic piece when I stop being a perfectionist.
I just love your videos CeeCee, they are so inspirational, relaxing and interesting. I also love your colour palettes. You are my favourite You Tube Artist and look forward to joining you on many more. Thank you x
Join the club. I am going through the same dead period. I don't have your deadlines. I am just a TH-camr with my art. I have learned a lot from your videos. I have learned a lot from you. Thanks for being there.
Absolutely the same from me. 🙏🏻💙 Just a scared, late in life beginner with a load of adversity that causes anxiety and stress, and a lifelong desire to learn to paint watercolor with no art education and a handful of wonderful TH-cam videos. So grateful for this video, at a particularly troubled low point in my life. 🙏🏻💙
Great colour swatching example ! Thank you. Interesting to hear your negative end of Winter description. It's an unpleasant truth that I admit to share. Thank you. Love it ! THANK YOU !!!
Hello Ceecee, I only recently discovered your channel, and I've been bingewatching it since. Your art is so beautiful, and your creative process so inspiring ❤
I just miss you so much. I get really excited when I see my little bell notification that you have put up a video. Thank you thank you thank you dear friend for being here with all of us❤
It feels like you are describing me, as you speak about what you feel. You are loved my dear. I love your art, your style, your teachings. You are very inspiring, encouraging, and you give me the courage to try to continue exploring and working at art. Thank you!! ❤️
Thank you CeeCee! It made my morning to see you back❤ I understand taking time away from your art when you just are not feeling it and sometimes the Pressures to create can really kill the Mojo. Your swatch today was lovely and peaceful to watch. I hope you are feeling rejuvenated again and the joy of your art comes flooding back…. If not.. i will patiently wait. You are amazing❤
So good to see another video from you, and what a treat. Such a gorgeous combination of colour, music and your calming voice. Only problem is, I now want to buy those paints 😂 but I will resist. I need to actually be making art with what I've got, not buying more. My partner always laughs when he sees me painting 'little squares' as he calls them, but this shows that they can be works of art in their own right. I'm glad to see the gold made an appearance too ❤
Dearest CeeCee! Thank you so much for your inspiring video!! 😍 It was soo worth waiting for! ❤️ Everything you touch really turns to gold! 🤩 Thanks again! 🤗❣️
New to your channel and thankful I found you. Your calm voice, and being able to actually see 'in action' the two water jars I have heard about, and thank you for that quote at the start. I needed to hear that and to write it down for my own art journal/ideas/notes as a reminder.
Just saw this recent video; oh what a gift you have given me this afternoon. All sound has been silenced in my home. My breath slows down and I let myself totally relax. Thank you so much for sharing your artist soul with all of us. Be well and welcome back. ❤
Me too, girlfriend. All the things I want to paint happen in the spring, and yet spring is when I'm at my lowest ebb for creating. It's sad because spring offers me what I most like to paint with a color palette I love but I am most artistically energized in autumn who's color palette is my least favorite out of all the seasons.
What a fabulous sharing of your thought process! Whenever I feel you couldn't get any better at teaching us, you step it up a few notches and give us more to contemplate and to work with. I love you and when you are going through hard times, whatever they may be, I just want to give you a big hug!
Thank you CeeCee! Was sitting here feeling blah from oral surgery Thursday, lamenting how I couldn’t do much of anything right now. You inspired me to pick up a pen and pad and do some neurographic art. Feeling much better now! You are good for the spirit! Much love from Florida 💖🌞
How wonderful to be with you making art in my little studio🥰 calm with beautiful music. I found myself looking across at your work every now and again. 😊very beautiful as always.
I came across your video while off work because of decision making exhaustion. Art is a hobby I do to help me after a week of doing a difficult job. But I am at a stage where I can’t paint because I can’t make a decision on what to do. Your video helped me a lot, firstly because I don’t feel alone and I will pick any colours, any paper and some water. Thank you and I wish you the best. Take care. H
Oh my word, CeeCee, I found you again. You have such an amazing connection with your viewers. I identify with your struggles and I also understand that the comments of friends and family are made with love, BUT they an cause even more guilt and anxiety. My desire to create has been dormant for many months. You have once again encouraged me to practice and enjoy the beauty of the process. Hugs, Carol S
So nice to see your return…lovely intuitive composition…intuitive art seems much more relaxed & enjoyable as there is no set way or pressure to produce something realistic be it figures or landscape
Dear creative Cee Cee, THIS is precisely the sort of video I wouldn't have known to ask for but am deeply drawn to these days. Life has thrown me some rather destabilizing challenges, in the form of radical changes to my chocolate business and a concussion that is messing with my concentration abilities (even more than the normal ADHD stuff). It is impacting my ability to be creative and yesterday was a "deep valley" sort of day. Waking up to this and knowing that, in a few hours, I can set aside time to simply "Be" with your calming, creative process, and remember the joy of just exploring... this might be healing. Please revisit this type of video, whenever the muse hits... otherwise I might just be stuck replaying this one. 😉🥰
thank you for sharing your story, Kristi. your comment has helped me and reaffirmed that i'm on the right track. thank YOU! sending you strength and courage and lots of joyful creative vibes. it doesn't have to be complicated to be enjoyable, right?! 😊
your story resonates in me. i too am ADHD and have been concussed several times. i know your struggle as it is mine also. wishing you all the best and hope this passes quickly for you
I LOVE the colors of the art nouveau set, but that is also my favorite period of art! Also chartreuse is my ultimate favorite!!! Beautiful greens when mixed......now an English landscape is in order.
I was just thinking the other day that I hadn’t seen a video from you for a while. I was concerned that you weren’t well and I am so glad to see you back here with us. I missed you. I understand the “spring” creative block. I find that I am eager for better weather and more sunshine, but at the same time my mind jangles with all extra things that need to be done once the weather turns nicer. I have a hard time carving out mental space to do creating when the energy of life ticks up. I know that once I have a chance to adjust, I will settle down.
CeeCee, thank you for this beautiful work. I've been in a slump for a few months regarding my own artistic creativity and appreciate your honesty and inspiration. I am trying to get myself motivated again and finding your video this morning is so helpful. I always love the color combinations you use. You've shown me a new and lovely way to swatch colors and create a work of art.
I ❤ watching your videos and listening to you….. you have a very calming affect on me? Thank you for sharing your time and energy. You are so appreciated?😊
I connected so much with what you were saying at the beginning... I have all of these passions and get devastated when one day my hands won't work like they did the day before, that burn and fire isn't there. I used to have such a passion for drawing and watercolor but never allowed myself the time to actually sit down and study, life always feeling rushed. Is there any specific classes you followed, watched, or even paid for that you felt helped you understand your mediums and how to use art as a therapy? I struggle to let go of the perfection of it, feeling like I have a lot to get out but don't know how to express it. Thank you for this video (: Makes me realize I'm not so alone in feeling this. I always wonder how others push past it too.
thank you for your comment. i have recently purchased a Domestika class by Adolfo Serra called " Illustration Techniques to Unlock your Creativity" and that really helped me. his approach to art is so organic and stress free. it's in spanish but there are subtitles. you'll find it on Domestika.com (this is not sponsored by the way). and you are not alone indeed! wishing you a lovely day!
Praying for you. You energy and joy seems to be low. I have there, done that, have the bumper sticker and Tshirt. Right now receive all the love that is around you. Look for it because it is there in your time of despair. It’s not hiding, it’s in your face. Ready to embrace you right where you are….
i know, Z! it took me months to get this set and i had to order from Amazon.com because Amazon Canada doesn't carry it. the shipping charges we a tad too much 😂
How wonderful to come here to youtube and see a new video is up from you!! As usual a most wonderful video!! Your soft smooth voice and the music makes me feel so relaxed! Am so sorry my friend, I were not able to do any art with you! I just had to sit and watch at what YOU were doing! So mesmerizing to watch!! Everything you do - even swatches! Turns into something beautiful and magical!! Thanks for brighten my day!! Wish you a lovely week! Stay safe and healthy!! Arthugs! 🥰
I love your art! I have been watching you off and on for 5 or more years, and you remain one of my favorite artists on TH-cam. Of course, I am happy when my finished product turns out beautiful, but I don't sell or give it away--I just do it for my own therapeutic enjoyment. The painterliness of your watercoloring, the doodling, the colors you use, and your "Midas touch"... the zen quality of all those things combined is why I am here. But may I please make one request/suggestion? I have wanted to for a long time, but didn't want to be a "Debbie downer" or for people to think I am criticizing your work or being some kind of troll. But would you consider using some lighter music? The music you use is beautiful and calming, but it can also be a bit of a downer. Sometimes I have to take a break from the video because of the music. There are other pieces to choose from that are just as calm, just as soothing, and just as beautiful, that don't carry quite so heavy a mood. Please don't be upset with me Ceecee, or all you wonderful people out there. There must be a few others who agree with me? I don't want to mute and/or listen to my own music, because I want to hear everything you say (plus most of my music is on vinyl out in the garage... as I date myself). Anyway, it's just a suggestion. And I wanted you to know up front how much I love your beautiful art, and how much I have LOVED watching you work for the last 5 years.
I appreciate so much how you turn a swatching session into art. I often feel guilty for swatching and “not painting something”. I will take this as greater license to consider my swatch sessions as art. Question: although you clearly laid down the basic outline of the swatches with intention, how much of the rest of the of this piece did you pre-plan? Did you know before you started how many swatches you wanted, for example?
thank you Vicky. i knew how many colors i wanted to play with and did a quick layout thumbnail and then did it on the watercolor paper. the florals/leaves were improved.
Gorgeous!! You inspire me so much!! I've been following you for years and I just can't get enough! LOL. I think we would be friends if we lived closer to each other!! ;)
I feel alot like what your feeling its hard to even try to pick up a art tool as my wrist is giving me issues,so im hoping watching other artist that i will find my mojo again...

I've missed sharing my calming, inspirational Sunday mornings with you. I'm grateful.
Wow, thank you Peggy! i wish i could be more active... i'm working on that. have a lovely Sunday 😊

Good morning! Another morning with you gives me hope and inspiration.
What a beautiful and gentle soul you are.. Thank you for all you say and do.
I love your voice and transparency CeeCee. It’s always a treat to watch you arting.
I agree. You have a very peaceful tone to your voice that's soothing. I know it sounds weird, but even your hands are "soothing".
I just love watching you create. So beautiful! Sun 18th/2024
Con que gusto creas! 🌷🌷🌷
I have been saving your videos to a watch-later playlist. I have been feeling that I want to get back into watercolor. I used to be pretty good when I was in high school, but now I am 66 years old.

Art heals, Robynn. i hope you'll find the courage to paint your friend's house. sending comforting hugs 😊
I love your “mistake.” Imperfection makes art better! Perfection is the enemy of joy.
I have to stop myself from that "perfectionist" bug. Not only is the process more relaxed and enjoyable--lots more enjoyable--but the 'less perfect' art is actually prettier! I end up with a more artistic piece when I stop being a perfectionist.
This was an amazing, relaxing time of watching you paint. I felt so close to Our Creator God during this time. Thank you, and God bless you.
I adore your videos and ideas. The music is so wonderful too
Ceecee, so simple, so beautiful. Wish we could see your work more frequently. Thanks for todays video.
thanks, Diana! More to come!
@@creationsceecee thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you CeeCee for speaking creative angst so plainly! And then for giving us a quiet, encouraging space in which to be and possibly create.
Your lovely videos always take me to my happy place, so know that you make a difference ❤️

Lovely choice of colors 🎉
these colours are so unique and beautiful ☺
Hello Ceecee, I only recently discovered your channel, and I've been bingewatching it since. Your art is so beautiful, and your creative process so inspiring ❤
Be careful with binge-watching because I do hate running out of them. The good thing is that watching them over again is easy to do!

Am so sorry my friend, I were not able to do any art with you! I just had to sit and watch at what YOU were doing! So mesmerizing to watch!! Everything you do - even swatches! Turns into something beautiful and magical!! Thanks for brighten my day!! Wish you a lovely week! Stay safe and healthy!! Arthugs! 🥰
Wow it’s been sooooo long! I loved this and will watch it again ! Hope you are well! Hugs, ClaudiaSJI
Thank you Ceecee. As always- so thankful to you. Xxx
thank you, Joy! 😊
Molto bello.
Липсваше ми. Не бих пропуснала твое видео. Къде се губиш, мила? Достави ми голямо удоволствие. Бъди здрава и много щастлива!
I love your art! I have been watching you off and on for 5 or more years, and you remain one of my favorite artists on TH-cam. Of course, I am happy when my finished product turns out beautiful, but I don't sell or give it away--I just do it for my own therapeutic enjoyment. The painterliness of your watercoloring, the doodling, the colors you use, and your "Midas touch"... the zen quality of all those things combined is why I am here. But may I please make one request/suggestion? I have wanted to for a long time, but didn't want to be a "Debbie downer" or for people to think I am criticizing your work or being some kind of troll. But would you consider using some lighter music? The music you use is beautiful and calming, but it can also be a bit of a downer. Sometimes I have to take a break from the video because of the music. There are other pieces to choose from that are just as calm, just as soothing, and just as beautiful, that don't carry quite so heavy a mood.
Please don't be upset with me Ceecee, or all you wonderful people out there. There must be a few others who agree with me? I don't want to mute and/or listen to my own music, because I want to hear everything you say (plus most of my music is on vinyl out in the garage... as I date myself). Anyway, it's just a suggestion. And I wanted you to know up front how much I love your beautiful art, and how much I have LOVED watching you work for the last 5 years.
I appreciate so much how you turn a swatching session into art. I often feel guilty for swatching and “not painting something”. I will take this as greater license to consider my swatch sessions as art. Question: although you clearly laid down the basic outline of the swatches with intention, how much of the rest of the of this piece did you pre-plan? Did you know before you started how many swatches you wanted, for example?
thank you Vicky. i knew how many colors i wanted to play with and did a quick layout thumbnail and then did it on the watercolor paper. the florals/leaves were improved.
Gorgeous!! You inspire me so much!! I've been following you for years and I just can't get enough! LOL. I think we would be friends if we lived closer to each other!! ;)
Soooo good! Thank you 🙏🕊😇
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved it. You are so talented💕
You are appreciated and missed dearly. Hope you are well.
You are a breath of inspiration❤
thank you, Glenda! 😊
Beautiful. Can I ask why you set a 15 min timer to get up instead of just taking a break when it suits you and the art?
Oh I forgot to mention on the website and on the back of the painting I would give creationsceecee credit for the original and site the relationship.
I feel alot like what your feeling its hard to even try to pick up a art tool as my wrist is giving me issues,so im hoping watching other artist that i will find my mojo again...
Hello Ceecee. I am really new to the TH-cam art channels and I don't know the protocols for creating my art work using yours as references? I have my watercolor art on a large art website. Is it legal and ethical use yours as references?
What is that spray bottle you use to activate the paints?
it used to have some kind of hair product but i don't know which brand. a friend of mine gave it to me without a label on it. sorry 😞
