Three years ago I took an early retirement (I was an “essential worker” during the pandemic and I had such burnout that my husband told me to leave and just enjoy my life. However; I had no idea how lonely I’d feel. I played with watercolors for the first time last year and loved it but this year I’ve struggled with depression and feeling hopeless and useless. Today I decided to pull out my watercolors and your video just happened to be in my feed so I watched while painting grounding circles. I just wanted to thank you for bringing some joy to my day today. ❤
Hi Maria! Please know that you are never never alone! I’ve struggled with depression in the past and I know that feeling all too well but there is an after! There’s is a looking back with a heart full of joy and appreciation and being surprised that’s you ever felt that way! In so happy for you that you found art as a tool and you started with the grounding circles; it helps ! ❤️ Journaling was the thing that helped me most! If you curious I’ll tell you what I did Have the last wonderful day and keep playing 😊
Thank you for the work you did as an essential worker during Covid and for sharing your struggles. I hope you are feeling at least a little better. Could you do an internet search to see if there are groups that meet regularly in your local area of like-minded and/or similar aged people for companionship? Our local government has community centres that hold different events, classes or groups on a regular basis that are cheap or free to attend. You might find something similar in your area? Are there volunteering opportunities in your local area that might interest you? Here we have opportunities to help young school children learn to read or spending time with elderly patients in a care facility who might also be lonely. Most important is taking care of you ❤
I deeply resonate with your narration - the amount of detail you go into and thoughts behind, during and after the art - very holistic stream of consciousness. I also LOVE how you show what the art will look like on a grander scale, placed in a room of one’s home. In addition to how beautiful your voice and your appearance are, these are reasons why it is a pleasure for me to watch your videos. Furthermore, the art itself speaks to me and meets me where I am in my skill development. Please keep sharing your magnetic feminine gifts. You are a treasure, to be sure.
I recently bought some of those markers since I’m just getting started with art. I’m going to be 86 years old in December and I’m so thrilled with people like you who share their work with others. I’m liking your style and hope I can get to be a fraction expertise as you are. Again thank you so much
i appreciate the heck out of you for leaving "bad art" in your videos!! sometimes it looks like everyone is perfect with every piece of art they make except for me, even though i know it's not true
I’ve recently returned to painting after recovering from 20 years of addiction and I’m so happy I found your channel, Paula! Watching you create art is incredibly inspiring and motivates me to do more painting. I’ve been able to rediscover my passion for art and painting that’s been hidden away in me for so long, and watching your videos gives me tons of ideas and helps me learn different techniques. Thank you so much for sharing your art, Paula! Please enter me in the paint marker giveaway! I’ve only used regular acrylic paints and watercolors because I love to use tons of colors and I didn’t know they made such huge sets of vibrant colors! I promise I’ll put them to immediate use!!!
Entered! And thank you so much for your beautiful words and sharing a part of your story with me Kristin ❤️I’m so glad you’ve found you way back to your passion 🥰
Hairdryer or heat gun will help that tape peel off perfectly. Also that huge heart looks exactly like a latch hook kit! Fantastic ideas!!!! Thank you ❤❤
I like the page you weren't a fan of, I think the colour theme is really pretty! what I love most about these ideas is that you've taken such a simple subject and created some completely unique and different pieces, it's very creative 🥰 (I'd love to try these markers too so please enter me haha 😂)
I would love this set of markers?! So many pretty colors. My husband is having brain surgery on Friday and I can foresee many hours of sitting with him while he recovers. It will be great time to work/play/learn in my sketchbook. ❤️💜💕💕💜❤️❤️💜💕💕💕
@ thank you. I hope he does too. I’m nervous but he is in God’s hands. I didn’t realize this one was closed. I will watch for your new one tomorrow. I absolutely love watching you! Keep up your great and fun channel.
I love the dogs on the desk hahaha. They're your personal admirers! The pastel sacred hearts looks so fun! I didn't really know what a sacred heart is, so I looked it up and learned something, too! The fuzzy looking multicolor one next to them is gorgeous as well! Its really nice to see that you decided to keep a page you didn't like in your book this time - something I have been trying to do is not stress if I don't like something I did in my sketchbook, and just keep it for the effort I put in. If the contest is still open I'd like to enter from Norway!
You are totally right! It really serves a purpose to leave finished art even if we don’t like it; but sometimes my inner critic disagrees and wins the argument 🫣 Thank you so much! I’m happy you liked the ideas ❤️ Entered!
I really liked the color palette on the hated page! Thanks for keeping it 😊 My favorite was the big (painterly?) heart - beautiful colors and I love how it extends past the black background just slightly- I love these ideas videos ❤️
Hi Paula! I'm writing to you from Sweden (EU). Your tips has got me painting again after a 10+ years of pause. I've been longing to get back to the art, but stifled myself with high expectations. Thank you so much for all those lovely inspiration flow exersices! I especially loved the drawing of wavy crossing lines and rounding the intersections! Now I'm starting again I notice I only have oil and water colours, no acrylic paint (it dried up) and no markers. I would be super happy to get one of the arttx boxes, since they are kinda both! Love those! ❤ Also let me tell you I really liked the page you hated at first and was pleased you let it be! If you'd blow it up it would look good as wall art in a Skandinavian style room with blonde wood and off whites in the furniture. Trust me! Thank you again for getting me started, it means a lot to me!
Oh I think you are right! In that room setting it could really shine!!! Thank you! I’ve entered you into the giveaway; in the meantime I’m so happy to know you’ve returned to art! 😊
Hi Paula! Just discovered your channel and love your great instructions, the lovely music, and all your beautiful ideas and videos. And I loved your blue, gray and yellow heart design. I’m so glad you kept it. Also love seeing your adorable pups. You have a great channel and I am an instant fan. Thanks for taking the time to share your talents to inspire me. Please enter me in your drawing. Thank you. ❤
I don’t mind the blue heart page. But maybe if you add a few black lines around some of the hearts it may give you the break the colors need or maybe even white.
I'm really glad that you left the one you hated! I'm also really glad you shared your thoughts out hating it and showed what you did to get back into your creative mood. So many people hate what they create and either destroy it or give up and stop creating. I think you are modeling a healthier approach to moving through the emotions. Thank you! I began watching a few of your videos on Friday, and by Saturday, I turned my house upside down to find the sketch book I KNEW I had! And I've been exploring ideas and various medium which I have - I have a LOT of supplies, some of which I have NEVER tried (yet) but am saving to try. Your approach and ideas are reason for me to break out these supplies and actually TRY! Thank you for that too.
Wow Susanne!!! thank you so much for sharing this with me 🥰I am truly happy and honored that this has inspired you to create and that you actually reached for your sketchbook and had some fun!!! . Please keep me posted on how the creative play goes ❤️🙌🏻Hugs.
Hi Paula, I'm Mrinalika from India, and I recently stumbled upon your videos-what a delightful find! From the moment I watched your first video, I fell in love with your creativity and the genuine way you connect with your subscribers. Your sketchbook ideas are simply inspiring, and your authenticity shines through in every video. I’m excited to participate in your giveaway. This is the first giveaway I’ve ever entered, and I’m doing it because your content has truly captured my heart. Winning would mean the world to me! Although I know I'm late for this entry, but please. Thank you for all the joy and inspiration you bring. With lots of love, Mrinalika
Love those markers ! The design of the page you are not to fond of is very nice, I think a different choice of colors would make it more vibrant. Your videos are inspiring..
I just recently found your channel. This is the second video I've seen of yours, and I'm really enjoying your content. FYI - I'm one of the ones who are going to telll you I actually like the page you didn't like, so I'm glad you decided to keep it! Finally - I would love to be able to win the markers! 😃 What a great giveaway! Oh, and by the way, I LOVE sketchbook ideas. They always get my attention.
I found your channel a few weeks ago and I really appreciate your teaching style. It's fun to be creative but sometimes you need that extra push to get you started. The markers would be interesting medium since not everyone is interested in painting.
I really enjoyed the painterly heart. Like you, this was my absolute favorite! I would LOVE to try the acrylic markers. I think I'd enjoy their opacity on dark or even busy backgrounds. Thank you for your very helpful and pleasant videos. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the video and the giveaway opportunity! I have subscribed on your channel which I only discovered yesterday, and even though I play music now more than visual art, I still love watching and would like to enter your giveaway. When I filled sketchbooks or even created new art, I created a lot of things I didn't like. The way I looked at it is that it is part of getting to ones you do like, like the trial and error process of using new tools. I have sketchbooks with ones that I now cringe looking at, so I know the feeling! And like you said, someone is going to end up liking it!
I absolutely love all these ideas. I really like the idea of the stripes with hearts (the page you did not like haha), but I feel some hearts needed some more contrast. The painterly heart on the simple background looked stunning. I cannot wait to try these ideas myself. I would also love to try these markers, so I definitely want to enter the giveaway🥰
More ideas! The strips that isn’t your favorite isn’t my favorite, but I still like it. I think maybe changing up the color would help?? Thank you for keeping it there, because we all have good and bad days or drawings, they are still part of us that make us grow! Love all your work! So glad I found you. I have to start filling my sketch book now! Thank you, Paula!
I only discovered your page a few weeks ago and keep coming back for more creative inspiration. I would love to enter the Arrtex acrylic paint pen contest. The "feathered" heart is my favorite. Over the years I have learned to keep the experiments that I "don't like" as a reference for what did not work for me... I never know what inspiration they will give in the future to spark something new. Your upbeat energy and joy in sharing and the showing the "ups and downs" of the creative process are much appreciated. Thank you.
I absolutely loved the painting that you were not liking and am going to create my own as soon as I get my own markers!!! You are such an inspiration!!! I love your videos!!!🥰😍🥰😍
😻💖OMG, the color combination of the heart that looks like a feather is so gorgeous! 💛So many different beautiful hearts, Paula’s imagination and skills are so amazing!
I've recently found your channel and love your sketchbook ideas! I just purchased one and I'm hoping to start drawing and painting again. It's been a few years lol. I'm a caregiver to my husband and his mother, so I don't have a lot of free time, but I've realized I need to make some time for me. I would love to be entered into the drawing for the markers as I have never used any like that before. I look forward to your upcoming videos.
I love your approach. I also struggle when I make art I don’t like & it can ruin the fun I’m suppose to be having. I love how you work around that. Thank you for that! ❤
I really love the sacred hearts page! The colors pop so beautifully against the black background. 🖤 Omg the petal-y heart is also lovely. Definitely have to try these markers at some point! Aww your dogs hanging out with you 🥺
I would love to try out the ARRTX markers! And I understand your struggle being a perfectionist in my art too. But seeing you push through and not instantly cover it up, was inspiring. I’m going to try some of your methods before I instantly cover up a drawing/painting I don’t like. So much love! 🖤
Love your art! My fav was the big heart. Retiring at the end of this month and plan to dive into art. Love to try these markers❤️💚🧡🩵💜💙🩶🤍🩷💛love your dogs 2
Loved the lil owl charm you made absolutely too cute! Also love all the art work in the sketchbook as well. Especially the one you didnt like and the framed ones are my favs. Ive been wanting to try these markers so much...been doing research and comparing prices...atleast if i dont win the giveaway i can still look into purchasing them when i save the money needed
Watching (and binging) your videos for months now, it is still soothing to listen to you and watching your beautiful art. We are learning by watching you, but I actually think we're watching you grow as well. Great how you managed to not let the tantrum get the better of you. Mistakes are okay, we'll try and learn from them. I would love to enter the contest (Netherlands, EU)
Entered, and thank you so much dear Lesley for your kind words and all the views!!! ❤️❤️❤️ yes, this is definitely a space where I’m sharing my own journey! I’m so grateful you are here for it 🥰
Oooo, I would love to be entered in the giveaway for those markers! Thank you, Paula! And I LOVE the page of hearts that you hate. I was relieved when you didn't tear it out!
I really loved the second page that you did not liked much but still it was looking like a masterpiece and I am defenately gonna try it. Also the colour theme matches well with each other and it encouraged me to draw it with the same theme... I am really appresiated by you and i love and will always love your drawings and art videos. Even though I am not a really old subscriber of your channel but still i really feel that you can always help me draw/try something in my sketchbook whenever i do not feel like... Love your videos Paula...
Just came upon your video by accident and so glad I did! LOVE your ideas! ❤❤The swatch page was awesome and the 2nd page was terrific also! Soooo glad you did not paint over those wonderful lined hearts! I’m the ONE that you mentioned and the reason you left it alone! 🥰🥰. The 3rd page was very colorful, but not a favorite compared to the ‘rainbow’ heart and the last watercolor painting. I would love to win a set of these wonderful acrylic paint markers so I can fill my sketchbook using them. They look so much easier to handle than paintbrushes which I have a hard time controlling as a newbie in the art world. Thank you for this opportunity to see new ideas and learn some amazing techniques.
Hi ,Paula ! Guapa as always and fun too . "I had issues" , graciously she says about herself ...hahahaha Thank you for the laughter 🤣🤗 You the best ! They all look splendid , I am with you , the brown must go but the whole concept is beautiful .Try some doodles along the lines of the hearts , maybe that would change the perspective over what you were initially wanted to create ? I simply adore the blue booby , what a cutie . Thank you for sharing your time and art with us and for introducing the Arttx paints to us . I don't need the paints beside I live in Europe , doesn't worth all the trouble with the shipping etc . Have a great week end ahead y hasta la proxima , abrazos . Tus perritos son adorables 🥰
I’ve found your channel I believe last week and I just love your content. Your sketchbook ideas your art is amazing and very creative. I loved the two pictures you did on the black paint with the markers. Those were both amazing and I plan to do them tonight. I would love to be entered into the contest for those markers and I look forward to seeing, the next videos that you put out. PS I loved the page that you hated and I love the fact that you put up your pictures blown up art to see what it would look like.
I love the range of different ideas you demonstrate! I havent thought of shrink plastic in years, brings back happy memories! I have to try it again. Fun sketchbook demo! I would like to be entered in the Arrtx marker give away please. Thanks so much for the inspiring videos that always make me smile 😊
Entered! And thank you so much! ☺️ I’m sure you’ll enjoy the shrink plastic!!!! I’ll have to make a video of stuff we can make with it to “justify” the playtime 😉
I love your art. I’m usually not a heart person but fell in love with yours! I’m actually looking for a set of acrylic markers, so it was nice to see your use of them. I would love to be entered into the giveaway!
Such a creative way to do swatches 😍 I think this might be my favourite page. So simple yet so cute! And ohhh those markers seem to be awesome. I would love to take part in a giveaway. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
Subscribed! Would love to win the marker set. Thank you for some of the best art inspiration I’ve ever seen!! I love love love your style and that you show how it would look on a wall? Chef’s kiss!!
Aww i think the second page is just so beautiful. I know we are sometimes our own toughest critics but you did a fabulous job! I absolutely live the way those markers flowed for you. I would like to be in the drawing for these. Would make an awesome birthday gift this week 😊 Thank you so much for all of your beautiful content it helps me to have inspiration when i just can’t seem to get motivated. Blessings to you❤️🌹
Hearts are my favourite subject to draw or incorporate into designs. Your rainbow painterly heart is just divine! I would love to enter the giveaway xx
I love these markers! Watching you create was so satisfying to me. I like to watch and imagine I actually was creating while you were!! Silly but the smooth way it painted on the paper made me sold me on buying a box if I 😂don’t win one. I’m a 72 year old granny who loves your videos and loves to create!!
I was so happy that you kept that outlined heart page in your sketchbook. Yes, you were talking to me. :) Love your inspiration. I would like to enter the giveaway for the acrylic markers. I've just started using them, and they are wonderful.
I love these idea videos! I really appreciate that you mention when you are struggling. It helps to know that we all struggle sometimes and we are not alone. I also appreciated you keeping the page you didn't like in. It wasn't my favorite but just knowing that you kept it in for the people who would love it made me happy. I have definitely liked stuff that you we not happy with. I love your dogs! I hope you show them more. ❤ Lastly, please enter me in the drawing. Thank you!
Paula, I love your videos. I am over 50 years old, and just beginning my creative journey. I’ve always been held back by fear of not being any good, but you are teaching me to let that go. Your sketchbook ideas are beautiful and I feel so proud of myself when I do something similar. Yes, please, I’d like to be entered into the giveaway.
Entered! I’m so happy you are enjoying your art practice and shaking some limiting beliefs! And I’m very honored I have inspired you somehow 😊 keep feeling proud and joyful! That what it’s all about ❤️
I’m happy you left the page! I actually loved it once you changed for the blue!! Sometimes it takes ais a few days to accept certain things especially when out of out comfort zone!! Right?.!?❤❤❤
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful video, I would like to put my hand up to be the 'YOU' you needed to validate that page, I do honestly love it, it's intense. I would like to be entered into the giveaway please, I never seem lucky enough to win anything, so if I won these markers I would be feeling out of this world! Your videos are always so inspiring, they just flow with love and enthusiasm, thank you for being you Paula, xxxxxxx
You have a Beautiful style to your artwork, absolutely LOVE IT, and a BIG THANKYOU for all the Inspiration you give me, i have always just used acrylic's for my art, by watching your content, i am now excited to try other mediums, i would very much like to be in the draw, and Thanks again Paula for the Inspiration. Sending Love, Light and Creativity to all.
I was just watching and painting along with one of your previous video earlier today and you go and post more! Yay!! Thank you for the inspiration! … I have subscribed to both and would like to try out those markers! Thanks again!
All these ideas made me feel very inspired I love how you played with different colous and ways how you apply the marker 😍 I wish I could have these markers too 🥰
I came across your channel a couple of weeks ago. Thank you. I really enjoy your sketchbook idea videos. I love hearts. The painterly method would make a beautiful dahlia. Your blue booby is so cute. I was fortunate to see some many years ago in Mexico. I would be thrilled to win those beautiful paint markers.
I would like to be included in the giveaway! These ideas are fun and inspiring. No stress and colorful play which is very satisfying. I like the page of hearts you dislike. If the page bothers you too much, you can always cut out strips and use as bookmarks... (I've done that a lot! LOL.)
I really like to paticipate in the give away! The sacred hearts Page absolutely surprised me, I really love how it turned out! ❤ Thank you for sharing your ideas and also second thoughts and struggles, that always helps a lot!
Would love to be entered in the giveaway. Now that that's done. Again, Paula, I love everything you create, and I will say it again you are such an amazing artist and just a wonderful human being. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend. Your friend ~Gina ~❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just recently discovered your channel and absolutely love your work!! I really adore your interactive pieces, your use of color and the painterly heart was simply gorgeous!! I haven’t heard of this brand of markers before but would love to win a set!! Thank you for the opportunity!!!
I think it’s great to show the honesty that you don’t like every page. Leaving it in is just a reminder that everything isn’t always perfect, and that’s okay! Thanks so much for the chance to win the markers, they seem awesome!
I'm interested in joining the giveaway. I recently came across your videos because I have a bunch of sketchbooks that aren't being used and I wanted to get some ideas. Those acrylic markers are lovely and it's great to see them in action! I love the blue footed booby and the heart swatch. Thank you for sharing these ideas!
I love, love the first one so much I immediately wanted to make it in every gradient I had. I LOVE Acrylics, never used the Acrylic markers, its my favorite supply and the look is so polished and full at the end. Your blue footed boobey keychain turned out amazing and adorable, the amount of detail it caught shrinking down- thank you for showing they can blend and texture too! You represented this brand and markers much better than the previous reviews I had seen, and I'm once again tempted towards them after I had decided they were not for me. I never knew what sacred hearts were, or that those hearts were sacred? The name of them- they are gorgeous and so is your collection, I have something new to motivate me when I get back into my book. Thank you so much for your effort, inspiration, honesty and kind words Paula! Love your videos.
Entered! And thank you so much Kate for all the love you are giving this video!!! I’m so happy you liked how I reviewed them! I have actually received more offers from art supplies but I want to make a point of just using stuff I want to try or I already want to use and then trying to give you as much as I can of my real experience with them! It was hard not to open and play with them before using them for this video lol Good luck with the draw!
I wanted you to leave that page. So thanks. I’m also so excited by the idea of a swatch page that looks like a beautiful piece of art. I can’t wait to try that. Please enter me into the drawing. Thank you for your great inspiration!
I‘d love to be entered in the giveaway if it’s still open! My favorite page was actually the swatch page! I love the colourful hearts and the black lines not matching up! It would make a very cool cover for a notebook, sketchbook, and such!
I would love to be entered! I love all kinds of crafting. I’m just starting my sketchbook journey and don’t feel I have much talent, but I think it would be a fun way to deal with my anxiety. And I did love the heart drawing you disliked! The neon green really made it pop! If I were to do anything else to it, I would maybe do some kind of black outline or just other images with black over it. But it’s still awesome! I just recently discovered your channel, and I’m loving it!
Hi Paula. I hope Australia is on your list for the giveaway. The paints look amazing, and I too am inspired by hearts. Thank you for sharing your ideas ❤
Love the page you hate, lime and aqua are my fave colours aside from teal and I just purchased sneakers in those exact colours lol. Thanks for showing your journey ❤
OOOOOOOO!!! The beautiful beastlies! They're wonderful!!! That's the only way to paint. Fantastic!! 🐾💜 Hahhah, I've been binge-watching your Create This Book 3 videos (the cover of that book is so fun and I love how over-and-above you go with the prompts) (I've also been binging on these fill your sketchbook videos). ooooooo the look buttery and creamy, very nice. LOVE the painterly heart, beautiful. You could always go back to the striped hearts and add words over it or in the stripes. It's most certainly save-able. I love your humor and honesty. You're an amazing content creator. I'd love to be entered into the giveaway. Great colors collection 🤩
I just stumbled across your channel, and I love these sketchbook videos! Between watching these and some of your shorts, I'm definitely getting the impression that it would be a lot of fun to play with some paint markers, so I'd love to enter that drawing.
Paula!! I LOVE the big heart you painted! You have such good ideas and it is always pleasant to view your videos. Of course I want to be entered in the giveaway!! Now that I’ve seen you have so much fun with those, I want to try!!
I like the line hearts, too. Thank you for keeping it. I'm learning about not being precious about things. I never know if what I have designed or painted may be the one thing that ministers to someone. It's not about me or what I like; it's about helping others.

Hi Paula, was someone already selected for the acrylic marker set giveaway?
Three years ago I took an early retirement (I was an “essential worker” during the pandemic and I had such burnout that my husband told me to leave and just enjoy my life. However; I had no idea how lonely I’d feel. I played with watercolors for the first time last year and loved it but this year I’ve struggled with depression and feeling hopeless and useless. Today I decided to pull out my watercolors and your video just happened to be in my feed so I watched while painting grounding circles. I just wanted to thank you for bringing some joy to my day today. ❤
Hi Maria! Please know that you are never never alone! I’ve struggled with depression in the past and I know that feeling all too well but there is an after! There’s is a looking back with a heart full of joy and appreciation and being surprised that’s you ever felt that way!
In so happy for you that you found art as a tool and you started with the grounding circles; it helps ! ❤️
Journaling was the thing that helped me most! If you curious I’ll tell you what I did
Have the last wonderful day and keep playing 😊
Thank you for the work you did as an essential worker during Covid and for sharing your struggles. I hope you are feeling at least a little better. Could you do an internet search to see if there are groups that meet regularly in your local area of like-minded and/or similar aged people for companionship? Our local government has community centres that hold different events, classes or groups on a regular basis that are cheap or free to attend. You might find something similar in your area? Are there volunteering opportunities in your local area that might interest you? Here we have opportunities to help young school children learn to read or spending time with elderly patients in a care facility who might also be lonely. Most important is taking care of you ❤
I'm the YOU for whom you kept the art. Thank you. I like the art just as it is.
Yes!!!! Thank you so much and I’m glad you liked it! 🥰
I deeply resonate with your narration - the amount of detail you go into and thoughts behind, during and after the art - very holistic stream of consciousness. I also LOVE how you show what the art will look like on a grander scale, placed in a room of one’s home. In addition to how beautiful your voice and your appearance are, these are reasons why it is a pleasure for me to watch your videos. Furthermore, the art itself speaks to me and meets me where I am in my skill development. Please keep sharing your magnetic feminine gifts. You are a treasure, to be sure.
Hi again! Thank you so so much for all these beautiful words; they truly encourage me and fill my soul with purpose! I’m very grateful for you. ❤️❤️✨
I recently bought some of those markers since I’m just getting started with art. I’m going to be 86 years old in December and I’m so thrilled with people like you who share their work with others.
I’m liking your style and hope I can get to be a fraction expertise as you are.
Again thank you so much
Hi Brianna!! Thank you!!
It’s never too late to have some fun doing art ❤️ I hope you are enjoying your markers and your practice ☺️
i appreciate the heck out of you for leaving "bad art" in your videos!! sometimes it looks like everyone is perfect with every piece of art they make except for me, even though i know it's not true
Oh my I feel the exact same way! I’m glad this helps us both! Thanks! 🥰 (and more ugliness coming soon 🫣)
that painterly heart came out gorgeous. those pens look like they flow really smooth. nice set. the keychain booby is simply adorable!
I’ve recently returned to painting after recovering from 20 years of addiction and I’m so happy I found your channel, Paula! Watching you create art is incredibly inspiring and motivates me to do more painting. I’ve been able to rediscover my passion for art and painting that’s been hidden away in me for so long, and watching your videos gives me tons of ideas and helps me learn different techniques. Thank you so much for sharing your art, Paula!
Please enter me in the paint marker giveaway! I’ve only used regular acrylic paints and watercolors because I love to use tons of colors and I didn’t know they made such huge sets of vibrant colors! I promise I’ll put them to immediate use!!!
Kudos to you for your recovery! Art is very cathartic. Sending you good vibes and hugs!
What a beautiful testament to the healing powers of unleashing our unique creativity and art from deep within ourselves. Thank you for sharing ❤
Entered! And thank you so much for your beautiful words and sharing a part of your story with me Kristin ❤️I’m so glad you’ve found you way back to your passion 🥰
❤this is this is my first attempt as a budding artist at 78 yrs old .wow luv your videos .
Thank you so much! I hope you are having fun!!! ❤️
Hairdryer or heat gun will help that tape peel off perfectly.
Also that huge heart looks exactly like a latch hook kit!
Fantastic ideas!!!! Thank you ❤❤
I use the hairdryer method and it works every time! 👍
Thank you so much! I didn’t know that tip! Will try next time 😊😊😊
Great ideas, Paula! I really needed some inspiration as I'm really stuck and drawing flowers, flowers, flowers and often the same ones!
You are so welcome! I’ve been there! I’m actually finishing a video where I really tried to go a different route haha it’s sometimes so hard 😅
I like the page you weren't a fan of, I think the colour theme is really pretty! what I love most about these ideas is that you've taken such a simple subject and created some completely unique and different pieces, it's very creative 🥰 (I'd love to try these markers too so please enter me haha 😂)
Please put me in the drawing for the markers please
Entered!
Of course! Entered! And thank you so much! Trying to show a range of things 😊
Me too .I love it!♥️
That opposite page is an excellent background to lettering with an inspirational message. It wont overwhelm the words but its still colorful and fun.
I had the same thought
A very pretty little box they....... HOLD UP, theres a dog on the desk!!!!! YES
Hey buddy! Haha yeah they like the desk now! Maybe they hit the idea from watching your video 🤔 uh!!! They hadn’t done it before!
I'm glad you didn't get rid of the line hearts. It's really pretty!
I would love this set of markers?! So many pretty colors. My husband is having brain surgery on Friday and I can foresee many hours of sitting with him while he recovers. It will be great time to work/play/learn in my sketchbook. ❤️💜💕💕💜❤️❤️💜💕💕💕
Hi! I hope you husband does well; I’m so sorry but this giveaway is closed. I have a new one coming tomorrow
@ thank you. I hope he does too. I’m nervous but he is in God’s hands. I didn’t realize this one was closed. I will watch for your new one tomorrow. I absolutely love watching you! Keep up your great and fun channel.
I love the dogs on the desk hahaha. They're your personal admirers! The pastel sacred hearts looks so fun! I didn't really know what a sacred heart is, so I looked it up and learned something, too! The fuzzy looking multicolor one next to them is gorgeous as well! Its really nice to see that you decided to keep a page you didn't like in your book this time - something I have been trying to do is not stress if I don't like something I did in my sketchbook, and just keep it for the effort I put in. If the contest is still open I'd like to enter from Norway!
You are totally right! It really serves a purpose to leave finished art even if we don’t like it; but sometimes my inner critic disagrees and wins the argument 🫣
Thank you so much! I’m happy you liked the ideas ❤️
Entered!
@@bycreativepaula The inner critic can be quite LOUD! But, you did it this time and thats great!
Can I be entered I can’t see if it the uk or not I love the last one If inspired ❤❤
@@cosmicglitter thank you! 🥰
@@Artkittyk entered!!!
I really liked the color palette on the hated page! Thanks for keeping it 😊 My favorite was the big (painterly?) heart - beautiful colors and I love how it extends past the black background just slightly- I love these ideas videos ❤️
Thank you so much! Yup I had big hopes for that color convo so I’ll need to try it again 😊
Hi Paula! I'm writing to you from Sweden (EU). Your tips has got me painting again after a 10+ years of pause. I've been longing to get back to the art, but stifled myself with high expectations. Thank you so much for all those lovely inspiration flow exersices! I especially loved the drawing of wavy crossing lines and rounding the intersections! Now I'm starting again I notice I only have oil and water colours, no acrylic paint (it dried up) and no markers. I would be super happy to get one of the arttx boxes, since they are kinda both! Love those! ❤
Also let me tell you I really liked the page you hated at first and was pleased you let it be! If you'd blow it up it would look good as wall art in a Skandinavian style room with blonde wood and off whites in the furniture. Trust me! Thank you again for getting me started, it means a lot to me!
Oh I think you are right! In that room setting it could really shine!!! Thank you!
I’ve entered you into the giveaway; in the meantime I’m so happy to know you’ve returned to art! 😊
Your dogs are so adorable!! 😍😍 The multicolored heart inspired by the globe is my favorite
Thank you so much! Mine too
Hi Paula! Just discovered your channel and love your great instructions, the lovely music, and all your beautiful ideas and videos. And I loved your blue, gray and yellow heart design. I’m so glad you kept it. Also love seeing your adorable pups. You have a great channel and I am an instant fan. Thanks for taking the time to share your talents to inspire me. Please enter me in your drawing. Thank you. ❤
Thank you so much for all the beautiful compliments! 🥰 entered! Good luck!
I don’t mind the blue heart page. But maybe if you add a few black lines around some of the hearts it may give you the break the colors need or maybe even white.
Yes I think black could have tied the whole thing! Thanks
I’m glad I realised I needed to out the stickers on before they got mixed up. Then I swatched them.
I'm really glad that you left the one you hated! I'm also really glad you shared your thoughts out hating it and showed what you did to get back into your creative mood. So many people hate what they create and either destroy it or give up and stop creating. I think you are modeling a healthier approach to moving through the emotions. Thank you! I began watching a few of your videos on Friday, and by Saturday, I turned my house upside down to find the sketch book I KNEW I had! And I've been exploring ideas and various medium which I have - I have a LOT of supplies, some of which I have NEVER tried (yet) but am saving to try. Your approach and ideas are reason for me to break out these supplies and actually TRY! Thank you for that too.
Wow Susanne!!! thank you so much for sharing this with me 🥰I am truly happy and honored that this has inspired you to create and that you actually reached for your sketchbook and had some fun!!! . Please keep me posted on how the creative play goes ❤️🙌🏻Hugs.
Hi Paula,
I'm Mrinalika from India, and I recently stumbled upon your videos-what a delightful find! From the moment I watched your first video, I fell in love with your creativity and the genuine way you connect with your subscribers. Your sketchbook ideas are simply inspiring, and your authenticity shines through in every video.
I’m excited to participate in your giveaway. This is the first giveaway I’ve ever entered, and I’m doing it because your content has truly captured my heart. Winning would mean the world to me! Although I know I'm late for this entry, but please.
Thank you for all the joy and inspiration you bring.
With lots of love,
Mrinalika
Plz Paula, I am really interested in filling my sketchbook, I recently bought a new sketchbook but looking for some ideas and got this video.
Thank you so much for all your beautiful kind words! I hope you are already playing in your sketchbook! 🥰
Entered
Love those markers ! The design of the page you are not to fond of is very nice, I think a different choice of colors would make it more vibrant. Your videos are inspiring..
Thank you so much! Yes I think the color choice failed me 😊
I just recently found your channel. This is the second video I've seen of yours, and I'm really enjoying your content. FYI - I'm one of the ones who are going to telll you I actually like the page you didn't like, so I'm glad you decided to keep it! Finally - I would love to be able to win the markers! 😃 What a great giveaway! Oh, and by the way, I LOVE sketchbook ideas. They always get my attention.
Entered! And thank you so much! I love to know that you liked the video enough to watch more!!! 🙏🏼❤️❤️
I love those line hearts . I don’t think you should throw that away. It’s just a sketchbook and I like how it looked.
Yes you are so right! I sometimes forget it is only a sketchbook, and I’m so grateful I have now somewhere to share were I’ll be reminded of that 🥰
I found your channel a few weeks ago and I really appreciate your teaching style. It's fun to be creative but sometimes you need that extra push to get you started. The markers would be interesting medium since not everyone is interested in painting.
Yessss that’s part of what makes them amazing ! Get the look without the mess of paint!
I really enjoyed the painterly heart. Like you, this was my absolute favorite! I would LOVE to try the acrylic markers. I think I'd enjoy their opacity on dark or even busy backgrounds. Thank you for your very helpful and pleasant videos. Keep up the good work!
Entered! And thank you so much! Will do! ❤️
Thanks for the video and the giveaway opportunity! I have subscribed on your channel which I only discovered yesterday, and even though I play music now more than visual art, I still love watching and would like to enter your giveaway. When I filled sketchbooks or even created new art, I created a lot of things I didn't like. The way I looked at it is that it is part of getting to ones you do like, like the trial and error process of using new tools. I have sketchbooks with ones that I now cringe looking at, so I know the feeling! And like you said, someone is going to end up liking it!
Thank you! And welcome!!! So happy to have you here
I’ve entered you in the giveaway 😊
I absolutely love all these ideas. I really like the idea of the stripes with hearts (the page you did not like haha), but I feel some hearts needed some more contrast. The painterly heart on the simple background looked stunning. I cannot wait to try these ideas myself. I would also love to try these markers, so I definitely want to enter the giveaway🥰
Entered! And thank you 😊 yes maybe more contrast could have helped! Def need to try again ❤️
More ideas! The strips that isn’t your favorite isn’t my favorite, but I still like it. I think maybe changing up the color would help?? Thank you for keeping it there, because we all have good and bad days or drawings, they are still part of us that make us grow! Love all your work! So glad I found you. I have to start filling my sketch book now! Thank you, Paula!
Have fun filling it! 🙌🏻
I only discovered your page a few weeks ago and keep coming back for more creative inspiration. I would love to enter the Arrtex acrylic paint pen contest. The "feathered" heart is my favorite. Over the years I have learned to keep the experiments that I "don't like" as a reference for what did not work for me... I never know what inspiration they will give in the future to spark something new. Your upbeat energy and joy in sharing and the showing the "ups and downs" of the creative process are much appreciated. Thank you.
Entered! And thank you so much ❤️ I’m really grateful that you are here and have been enjoying my content 😊
I absolutely loved the painting that you were not liking and am going to create my own as soon as I get my own markers!!! You are such an inspiration!!! I love your videos!!!🥰😍🥰😍
Oh thank you! I hope you made yours already ❤️
😻💖OMG, the color combination of the heart that looks like a feather is so gorgeous! 💛So many different beautiful hearts, Paula’s imagination and skills are so amazing!
Thank you so much!! 😊 I’m really enjoying your product! It’s amazing!
I've recently found your channel and love your sketchbook ideas! I just purchased one and I'm hoping to start drawing and painting again. It's been a few years lol. I'm a caregiver to my husband and his mother, so I don't have a lot of free time, but I've realized I need to make some time for me. I would love to be entered into the drawing for the markers as I have never used any like that before. I look forward to your upcoming videos.
Hi Lisa!! How smart to give yourself time; you definitely can’t pour from an empty cup ❤️ so fill yours with joy!
Entered, and thank you so much 😊
I’ve only recently discovered your channel but I’ve been back again and again. You remind me to “play” in my sketchbook! Thank you
Thank you so much for coming back! 🥰 I feel honored I’ve inspired you! ❤️
I love your approach. I also struggle when I make art I don’t like & it can ruin the fun I’m suppose to be having. I love how you work around that. Thank you for that! ❤
Thank you so much! ☺️ you are welcome! ❤️
I have always struggled to figure out what to paint. This has been such a great source of inspiration! Thank you so much😊
I’m so happy it helps! ❤️
I really love the sacred hearts page! The colors pop so beautifully against the black background. 🖤
Omg the petal-y heart is also lovely. Definitely have to try these markers at some point!
Aww your dogs hanging out with you 🥺
Thank you so much my friend!!! ❤️🥰 my doggies definitely keep me company ☺️
I would love to try out the ARRTX markers! And I understand your struggle being a perfectionist in my art too. But seeing you push through and not instantly cover it up, was inspiring. I’m going to try some of your methods before I instantly cover up a drawing/painting I don’t like. So much love! 🖤
Entered! And thank you so much! I love that someone understands the impulse to paint over stuff!!❤️
@@bycreativepaula you replied!! Haha sorry that made me geek out. Sending love 🖤🖤
Love your channel, and would love the markers. I'm a beginner, but so far I'm surprising myself and others with my watercoloring.
I’m so happy for you! Entered! And thank you so much 😊
I love the shrink wrap keychain. I have some shrink wrap sitting around that I need to try out.
Thanks friend! Hope you do! It’s so much fun!
Love your art! My fav was the big heart. Retiring at the end of this month and plan to dive into art. Love to try these markers❤️💚🧡🩵💜💙🩶🤍🩷💛love your dogs 2
That’s sounds like a very nice plan! Thank you! 😊
Loved the lil owl charm you made absolutely too cute! Also love all the art work in the sketchbook as well. Especially the one you didnt like and the framed ones are my favs. Ive been wanting to try these markers so much...been doing research and comparing prices...atleast if i dont win the giveaway i can still look into purchasing them when i save the money needed
Thank you so much! 😊 entered!!
I love the blue footed booby birds they just are so cute! It makes me smile whenever I see photo of them. I really like charm you made too!
Thank you so much! I find them so interesting and cute too!
Watching (and binging) your videos for months now, it is still soothing to listen to you and watching your beautiful art. We are learning by watching you, but I actually think we're watching you grow as well. Great how you managed to not let the tantrum get the better of you. Mistakes are okay, we'll try and learn from them.
I would love to enter the contest (Netherlands, EU)
Entered, and thank you so much dear Lesley for your kind words and all the views!!! ❤️❤️❤️ yes, this is definitely a space where I’m sharing my own journey! I’m so grateful you are here for it 🥰
Oooo, I would love to be entered in the giveaway for those markers! Thank you, Paula! And I LOVE the page of hearts that you hate. I was relieved when you didn't tear it out!
Hi Kathy! Thank you so much! 🫶🏼
Entered
I really loved the second page that you did not liked much but still it was looking like a masterpiece and I am defenately gonna try it. Also the colour theme matches well with each other and it encouraged me to draw it with the same theme...
I am really appresiated by you and i love and will always love your drawings and art videos. Even though I am not a really old subscriber of your channel but still i really feel that you can always help me draw/try something in my sketchbook whenever i do not feel like...
Love your videos Paula...
Thank you so much! I’m really happy that my videos let you know that you can DEFINITELY create something! ❤️❤️❤️
Just came upon your video by accident and so glad I did! LOVE your ideas! ❤❤The swatch page was awesome and the 2nd page was terrific also! Soooo glad you did not paint over those wonderful lined hearts! I’m the ONE that you mentioned and the reason you left it alone! 🥰🥰. The 3rd page was very colorful, but not a favorite compared to the ‘rainbow’ heart and the last watercolor painting. I would love to win a set of these wonderful acrylic paint markers so I can fill my sketchbook using them. They look so much easier to handle than paintbrushes which I have a hard time controlling as a newbie in the art world. Thank you for this opportunity to see new ideas and learn some amazing techniques.
Hi Betty! I’m happy you stumbled on the video too! Welcome and thank you very much! 😊
Entered!
Hi ,Paula ! Guapa as always and fun too . "I had issues" , graciously she says about herself ...hahahaha Thank you for the laughter 🤣🤗 You the best ! They all look splendid , I am with you , the brown must go but the whole concept is beautiful .Try some doodles along the lines of the hearts , maybe that would change the perspective over what you were initially wanted to create ? I simply adore the blue booby , what a cutie . Thank you for sharing your time and art with us and for introducing the Arttx paints to us . I don't need the paints beside I live in Europe , doesn't worth all the trouble with the shipping etc . Have a great week end ahead y hasta la proxima , abrazos . Tus perritos son adorables 🥰
Thank you so much for all the kind words and the suggestion! Maybe it could work! 😊
I’ve found your channel I believe last week and I just love your content. Your sketchbook ideas your art is amazing and very creative. I loved the two pictures you did on the black paint with the markers. Those were both amazing and I plan to do them tonight. I would love to be entered into the contest for those markers and I look forward to seeing, the next videos that you put out. PS I loved the page that you hated and I love the fact that you put up your pictures blown up art to see what it would look like.
Hi! Thank you so much! So happy you found the channel! I hope you had fun trying the ideas ❤️
Entered!
I love the range of different ideas you demonstrate! I havent thought of shrink plastic in years, brings back happy memories! I have to try it again. Fun sketchbook demo! I would like to be entered in the Arrtx marker give away please. Thanks so much for the inspiring videos that always make me smile 😊
Entered! And thank you so much! ☺️ I’m sure you’ll enjoy the shrink plastic!!!! I’ll have to make a video of stuff we can make with it to “justify” the playtime 😉
I love your art. I’m usually not a heart person but fell in love with yours! I’m actually looking for a set of acrylic markers, so it was nice to see your use of them.
I would love to be entered into the giveaway!
Entered! And thank you so much I’m happy you liked my hearts! 🥰
Such a creative way to do swatches 😍 I think this might be my favourite page. So simple yet so cute! And ohhh those markers seem to be awesome. I would love to take part in a giveaway. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
Entered! And thank you so much! 😊

Reading that makes me so happy!!!! Thank you for coming back!🥰

Aww i think the second page is just so beautiful. I know we are sometimes our own toughest critics but you did a fabulous job! I absolutely live the way those markers flowed for you. I would like to be in the drawing for these. Would make an awesome birthday gift this week 😊 Thank you so much for all of your beautiful content it helps me to have inspiration when i just can’t seem to get motivated. Blessings to you❤️🌹
Blessings for you too! I’m very happy my content inspires you 😊
Entered!
Hearts are my favourite subject to draw or incorporate into designs. Your rainbow painterly heart is just divine! I would love to enter the giveaway xx
Love them too! Entered and thank you! ☺️
I love these markers! Watching you create was so satisfying to me. I like to watch and imagine I actually was creating while you were!! Silly but the smooth way it painted on the paper made me sold me on buying a box if I 😂don’t win
one. I’m a 72 year old granny who loves your videos and loves to create!!
Entered! And thank you so much Anna you are so nice and it’s not silly at all!!❤️
I was so happy that you kept that outlined heart page in your sketchbook. Yes, you were talking to me. :) Love your inspiration. I would like to enter the giveaway for the acrylic markers. I've just started using them, and they are wonderful.
Thank you so much! I’m so happy I was talking to you! 🥰 entered!
I love these idea videos! I really appreciate that you mention when you are struggling. It helps to know that we all struggle sometimes and we are not alone.
I also appreciated you keeping the page you didn't like in. It wasn't my favorite but just knowing that you kept it in for the people who would love it made me happy. I have definitely liked stuff that you we not happy with.
I love your dogs! I hope you show them more. ❤
Lastly, please enter me in the drawing. Thank you!
Entered! And thank you so much I’m so happy you are liking the ideas and how o share them ❤️🥰
Paula, I love your videos. I am over 50 years old, and just beginning my creative journey. I’ve always been held back by fear of not being any good, but you are teaching me to let that go. Your sketchbook ideas are beautiful and I feel so proud of myself when I do something similar. Yes, please, I’d like to be entered into the giveaway.
Entered! I’m so happy you are enjoying your art practice and shaking some limiting beliefs! And I’m very honored I have inspired you somehow 😊 keep feeling proud and joyful! That what it’s all about ❤️
I really love the colour scheme you chose for that second page, the blues and greens + greys look nice together!
Thank you! Yes I like those colors I’ll need to try them again!
I’m happy you left the page! I actually loved it once you changed for the blue!! Sometimes it takes ais a few days to accept certain things especially when out of out comfort zone!! Right?.!?❤❤❤
It totally does! Thanks! ❤️
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful video, I would like to put my hand up to be the 'YOU' you needed to validate that page, I do honestly love it, it's intense.
I would like to be entered into the giveaway please, I never seem lucky enough to win anything, so if I won these markers I would be feeling out of this world!
Your videos are always so inspiring, they just flow with love and enthusiasm, thank you for being you Paula, xxxxxxx
Oh Devon thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ I appreciate them so much! And I also appreciate the support for my line page 😊
Entered!
@@bycreativepaula Thank you so much xx
You have a Beautiful style to your artwork, absolutely LOVE IT, and a BIG THANKYOU for all the Inspiration you give me, i have always just used acrylic's for my art, by watching your content, i am now excited to try other mediums, i would very much like to be in the draw, and Thanks again Paula for the Inspiration. Sending Love, Light and Creativity to all.
Entered! And thank you so much I feel very happy that you felt inspired! ✨
I was just watching and painting along with one of your previous video earlier today and you go and post more! Yay!! Thank you for the inspiration! … I have subscribed to both and would like to try out those markers! Thanks again!
That’s so great!!!!thanks for telling me and subbing ❤️
Entered
You are so inspiring and fun to watch. Love your process and love your art.
Thank you so much! ☺️
All these ideas made me feel very inspired I love how you played with different colous and ways how you apply the marker 😍 I wish I could have these markers too 🥰
I came across your channel a couple of weeks ago. Thank you. I really enjoy your sketchbook idea videos. I love hearts. The painterly method would make a beautiful dahlia. Your blue booby is so cute. I was fortunate to see some many years ago in Mexico. I would be thrilled to win those beautiful paint markers.
I’m so happy you are now part of the channel! Entered!! 😊 and thank you so much !
Beautiful! Those markers seem great! I'd love to try them out
My fav is actually the swatch page haha ❤
Entered! And thank you so much! 😊 it is a fun page lol
I would like to be included in the giveaway! These ideas are fun and inspiring. No stress and colorful play which is very satisfying.
I like the page of hearts you dislike. If the page bothers you too much, you can always cut out strips and use as bookmarks... (I've done that a lot! LOL.)
Entered! And thank you for that idea is wonderful!!! I’ll have to do that!!! ❤️
I really like to paticipate in the give away! The sacred hearts Page absolutely surprised me, I really love how it turned out! ❤ Thank you for sharing your ideas and also second thoughts and struggles, that always helps a lot!
I’m so happy it helps that I share! Thank you! ❤️ and entered!
Would love to be entered in the giveaway. Now that that's done. Again, Paula, I love everything you create, and I will say it again you are such an amazing artist and just a wonderful human being. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend. Your friend ~Gina ~❤❤❤❤❤❤
Entered! And thank you so much Gina you are so kind! ❤️😊
I just recently discovered your channel and absolutely love your work!! I really adore your interactive pieces, your use of color and the painterly heart was simply gorgeous!! I haven’t heard of this brand of markers before but would love to win a set!! Thank you for the opportunity!!!
Entered! And thank you so much for all your nice and encouraging words! 🥰
@@bycreativepaula Thank you for entering me into the giveaway and you are very welcome!!!! ❤
I think it’s great to show the honesty that you don’t like every page. Leaving it in is just a reminder that everything isn’t always perfect, and that’s okay! Thanks so much for the chance to win the markers, they seem awesome!
Entered! And thank you; I loved the way you’ve stated because it’s definitely how life goes! And we are ok! 😊
I'm interested in joining the giveaway. I recently came across your videos because I have a bunch of sketchbooks that aren't being used and I wanted to get some ideas. Those acrylic markers are lovely and it's great to see them in action! I love the blue footed booby and the heart swatch. Thank you for sharing these ideas!
Entered! And thank you so much! 🩵 I love that chubby bird too! And I hope at least one of those sketchbooks is seeing some action now! ☺️😂
That big heart is gorgeous! All of them were beautiful but especially the big heart.
Thank you! Def my favorite!
I love, love the first one so much I immediately wanted to make it in every gradient I had. I LOVE Acrylics, never used the Acrylic markers, its my favorite supply and the look is so polished and full at the end. Your blue footed boobey keychain turned out amazing and adorable, the amount of detail it caught shrinking down- thank you for showing they can blend and texture too!
You represented this brand and markers much better than the previous reviews I had seen, and I'm once again tempted towards them after I had decided they were not for me.
I never knew what sacred hearts were, or that those hearts were sacred? The name of them- they are gorgeous and so is your collection, I have something new to motivate me when I get back into my book.
Thank you so much for your effort, inspiration, honesty and kind words Paula! Love your videos.
Entered! And thank you so much Kate for all the love you are giving this video!!! I’m so happy you liked how I reviewed them! I have actually received more offers from art supplies but I want to make a point of just using stuff I want to try or I already want to use and then trying to give you as much as I can of my real experience with them!
It was hard not to open and play with them before using them for this video lol
Good luck with the draw!
The scrap of paper you used for the watercolour was really nice too. I saw a vulture on the left hand side and a rock formation on the right.
Oh how cool! I didn’t really pay much attention to it 🫣
I wanted you to leave that page. So thanks. I’m also so excited by the idea of a swatch page that looks like a beautiful piece of art. I can’t wait to try that. Please enter me into the drawing. Thank you for your great inspiration!
Entered! And thank you so much! ☺️
I‘d love to be entered in the giveaway if it’s still open!
My favorite page was actually the swatch page! I love the colourful hearts and the black lines not matching up! It would make a very cool cover for a notebook, sketchbook, and such!
Oh yesss you are right! I’ll definitely revisit! And the giveaway closes tomorrow so you are good and entered!
Thank you so much! ❤️
I loved all your projects today! Especially the first page of hearts. I would love to win the set of Arrtx markers. You made them look so easy to use!
I’m so happy you enjoyed them! Thank you! 😊
I’m joining the giveaway! I love how you showed your process to feel good after making something you don’t like. So relateable!
Entered! I’m so happy you can relate to that!
Quickly becoming one of my favorite channels
Awww thank you so much!!!!
I totally agree!!!! :-)
Those markers look gorgeous, especially pastel ones
Entered!
I would love to be entered! I love all kinds of crafting. I’m just starting my sketchbook journey and don’t feel I have much talent, but I think it would be a fun way to deal with my anxiety. And I did love the heart drawing you disliked! The neon green really made it pop! If I were to do anything else to it, I would maybe do some kind of black outline or just other images with black over it. But it’s still awesome! I just recently discovered your channel, and I’m loving it!
Thank you so much and welcome!
Please remember talent comes from practice so start for you and your own joy! ❤️ nothing else really matters!
Entered 😊
Hi Paula. I hope Australia is on your list for the giveaway. The paints look amazing, and I too am inspired by hearts. Thank you for sharing your ideas ❤
Entered and thank you! ☺️
What beautiful markers for your sketchbook. I would love to participate in your giveaway and try them out. Thanks for sharing
Entered! And thank you! 😊
"Because I have issues..." SAME, girl, same. 😂 Great vid, thanks for the ideas!
Hahaha thanks!!!! ☺️
Keep these coming. Love watching you!!❤
Thank you so much 😊 ! Will do!
Love the page you hate, lime and aqua are my fave colours aside from teal and I just purchased sneakers in those exact colours lol. Thanks for showing your journey ❤
OOOOOOOO!!! The beautiful beastlies! They're wonderful!!! That's the only way to paint. Fantastic!! 🐾💜
Hahhah, I've been binge-watching your Create This Book 3 videos (the cover of that book is so fun and I love how over-and-above you go with the prompts) (I've also been binging on these fill your sketchbook videos). ooooooo the look buttery and creamy, very nice. LOVE the painterly heart, beautiful. You could always go back to the striped hearts and add words over it or in the stripes. It's most certainly save-able.
I love your humor and honesty. You're an amazing content creator.
I'd love to be entered into the giveaway. Great colors collection 🤩
Entered! And thank you so so much for your kind words and also for all the views! ☺️😉❤️
I just stumbled across your channel, and I love these sketchbook videos! Between watching these and some of your shorts, I'm definitely getting the impression that it would be a lot of fun to play with some paint markers, so I'd love to enter that drawing.
Entered, and thank you so much 😊 glad you like the videos!
Paula!! I LOVE the big heart you painted! You have such good ideas and it is always pleasant to view your videos. Of course I want to be entered in the giveaway!! Now that I’ve seen you have so much fun with those, I want to try!!
Entered! And thank you so much! I’m so happy you like my videos 🥰
I like the line hearts, too. Thank you for keeping it. I'm learning about not being precious about things. I never know if what I have designed or painted may be the one thing that ministers to someone. It's not about me or what I like; it's about helping others.
Oh yes that is so beautifully put Kathy! Learning to learn not to be precious about things and rather focus on feeling and experiencing ❤️
