Denise, you have given me the greatest gift I could have ever asked for. Because of you, my muse is completely awake and driving my artistic vibe once again!!! Thank you so much for your encouraging excitement and emotional support!! My little studio is back up and humming after 3 years of silence. Multiple surgeries in 2020 on top of chemo., radiation COVID, emotional whiplash, more procedures and wicked depression in 2021 - 2022 and finally, some strange medical diagnosis in 2023. These last few weeks have been such a blessing and it is all because I was lucky enough to have found you. Thank you for being out here, sharing your talent and joyful spirit with all of us!!! ❤🎉😊🎉❤
You are more than welcome my friend!!! Painting with you via TH-cam and Skill Share is going to be a real fun kick in the pants!! Can't wait to get going!!!!!
I have really LOVED this one!! I would have never chosen that color palette either... but look at the result!!! You created such beautiful pieces. Today I learned it is not the colors or the type of paint but only the creativity you put on it. Thanks for this amazing lesson! I have been painting following your lead... I am proud and happy of what I have done though I am still learning!!! Like you said, it makes me smile through the day. Love from rainy & cold south of Chile!.
Just introduced my 8yr old grandson to your inimitable style and he loves it. We've decided to do a weekly colour palette challenge together. He went home so proud of his creations.
I think Sarah has an affiliate program for her cubes. I love your enthusiasm and your narratives as you work through the pieces. You always have loads of practical advice to give. Whether it’s Skillshare or TH-cam, I think all your tutorials are amazing. You deserve to be a Skillshare Top Teacher!
I really enjoy your discussions of color and composition. I wasn't sure about the two color swaps you made at the beginning, but in the end , they matched your palette challenge better.
I love how the base of watercolors is soft but strongly pigmented followed by the the acrylics! The layers are so much easier to see! Love love love it! I’m inspired to get the watercolors!
Now this is the type of Watercolor painting I can totally get excited about. Love love love this. Thank you for your inspiration. I can’t wait to watch more of your videos.
I've been on vacation in South Padre Island, Texas for the month of October. Your videos have inspire my creativity and missing my art studio. Love, love your challenges!!
You are so amazing, and your smile always makes my day! This turned out beautiful!! Thank you so so so much for showing us how important it is to not doubt ourselves and just push through. I get so discouraged in my "ugly phases" but you are teaching persistence and perseverance. I adore this and you! ❤️✝️🌹✝️❤️
Oh my gosh, your addicting, like the best euphoric drug or dreamiest cheesecake in the world. I'm just sayin, I have been binge watching you for 3 days straight. lol my house looks like a tornado hit it. so thankful I found your channel. Big hugs,GinaB💕😍💖🥰❤
Hey Denise! These are super pretty!! I just couldnt imagine how those colors would turn out and your first paint down I was like...humm🤔 dont know how she is gonna pull this off. But you totally did. Just gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing! Susan in Az🏜️❤️
I came across your videos Monday and I’ve now been binge watching them for 4 days (im currently ill with flu) you are fantastic and your energy and excitement is up lifting. Please could you do a video on how you collage your left over pieces too, I’m intrigued x
I really enjoyed watching you challenge yourself. I’v been watching Sarah Renae’s channel and it was really nice to see another person use the Colour Box in a different way. I’m hooked!
The end result is truly awesome…watercolors have always intimidated me, but I think I’ll have to give them a try…just found your site and subscribed…you’re delightful….
STUNNING....JUST spent the afternoon with you and doing a test set, paper was rubbish, but no probs, all fun, thoroughly enjoyed listening to you whilst I just carried on....xxx
This is absolutely gorgeous 😍😍😍 It is like a magic trick 😂 I have only recently found your channel and your creations have blown me away 🤩 It is so inspirational to see how you use all the different supplies and just go for it. It has definitely triggered my creativity and look at it more loosely. I love so many things and you show how to combine them 🤗 Thank you for opening up my creativity to a whole new level 🙏
I am loving all your videos. You are such an inspiration ❤️ I am new to Abstract Art but eager to jump in. Do you happen to have a video on cleaning stencils or cleaning and taking care of your supplies. Thank you for taking time to make these amazing tutorials-much appreciated!
So glad you are enjoying the videos!! Thank you 😊... I don't really clean my stencils... putting the paint on with the sponge like I do leaves a very thin layer of paint that dries very fast. So before you could get up to go rinse them off - it is dry. I don't worry about it. If the paint gets too built up - you might soak the stencil in water and then peal the paint off. for the brushes - I sometimes use brush cleaner - but mostly water with my water based paints. I show the brush cleaner in my artist essentials video here: th-cam.com/video/emlgABI5pfU/w-d-xo.html
You definitely have talent. I tried to do a couple of these...and they ended in the trash. But I will keep trying. I love your techniques and it's a good way to play and warm up. Thank you and enjoy your day.
I have lots that end up in my pile of art that I don't love and I save them to cut up for other things. Don't be too hard on yourself... save them and look at them later. You might be surprised how many you like later! 😊
Maybe warm up in a sketchbook instead of on paper? Having a sketchbook or journal that you’ve decided to allow yourself to make a mess of can be transformative. Then you’ll be closer to getting in the zone once you start on a separate piece of paper. Denise’s advice, naturally, is spot on. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Try to just enjoy the process and let go of preconceptions etc. In fact maybe even decide that what you’re aiming for is to swatch colours, or see if the pigment is intense enough to show up thru a stencil, or make a background/collage ephemera or whatever you’ll feel the least amount of expectation about. If you’re not ‘ feeling it’ about a piece or process do as Denise suggested and put it away to come back to. Sounds kinda unlikely but coming back to something when you’ve already warmed up with something else or you’re in a different headspace or whatever really can totally alter how you feel about it. Heh. That’s true of a lot of stuff in life isn’t it? Also : There’ve been too many times to count when I’ve really not liked something but other folks have loved it. Art is so subjective, and depends a lot on where your head’s at. I know that loosening up and letting go of expectations is rather counterintuitive because it’s pretty much the total opposite of how we’re socialised to be. That’s no doubt part of the reason why using creativity can help so much with our mental health. Sorry! I do tend to ramble on once I start. Hope you’re able to be kinder to yourself and can find a way that works for you.
Absolutely beautiful 💕 I only found your channel a few days ago and love what you do! I’ve already tried the intuitive painting from a few days ago. I really need a calligraphy brush too. Thank you. Keep up the amazing work. Cheers from Australia 😊
Just found your channel and am enjoying your Intuitive creations. I think I’m inspired to get that color cube thing. I would have never used those colors either but love the result.
The Color Cube set is fantastic. I'm going to try to do every single palette in the 2 decks!! Might take me a few years - but that is the goal. I love the challenge of using colors I never would have considered! 😊
This is an amazing tutorial! These colors are totally my jam, and your use of the stencil was brilliant 👏. I definitely saved this video for future reference.
So glad you enjoyed it... these colors were so outside what I would normally pick... but man.. I love how it turned out when it was finished! Thank you!! 🥰🥰🥰
I’m going to try to work through all 500 color palettes and film it… might take years… but I think it will be fun. I truly didn’t like this palette when I pulled it… so it really made the “challenge” part of this for me! And who knew!! Turned out totally unexpectedly! I loved it. Fantastic way to discover new things! 😊
Oh yay!! So glad you are here! I like doing a few different creative things to keep things interesting for myself and the art classes are so much fun! 😊
These colour scheme videos are so much fun, in great part due to your enthusiasm and positivity. I love them! Also, maybe I missed something, but have all colour schemes so far been from cube 1? Would it be possible to alternate between cubes 1 and 2, for those of us who are trying to decide which one to get for ourselves? If not, that's okay too. I love your videos regardless.
I alternate between them in the videos. I haven’t looked through all the palettes to see if there is a difference in the way they pulled the palettes together because I want to be surprised when I pull a color card. I don’t think it says on their site either. My goal is to eventually make my way through them all… such a good challenge working in colors that you wouldn’t normally try! 😁
@@2lilowlsstudio Oh well, seems I just happened to have picked cube 1 videos then. Guess I'll just have to watch more. 😁 And I agree, this project seems like a perfect way to get out of a rut and into a creative routine. Thank you for sharing that with us. ☘️
Agree with you that the results were completely unexpected. I did not like this color combo at all, but you made it work so well. Loving this technique. I’m wondering if you could use watercolor paint right out of the tube. What do you think. I’m not a fan of acrylic mostly because of the smell. Blessings to you!
Right? Totally unexpected! Im sure you could use the watercolor out of the tube. Watercolor is a bit more expensive. The arteza ones I’m using are non toxic and I don’t smell them when I’m working with them. You might try a small sample of those and see what you think. You could substitute anything you have on hand really when doing these. Mark make with neocolor 2 crayons and skip stencils would be a good choice. 😊
Love this so much. Amazing personality choosing to share inspiring art techniques... subscribed and will be binge watching while I wait for my winsor newton #4 calligraphy brush to arrive 😅.
@@2lilowlsstudio You know things. Can you recommend a true white watercolor paper with watercolor paper texture? Love the texture of my current paper, but the vanilla/off-white background is interfering with with where I want to go. Thank you in advance 😊🎨
Love❤. This is encouraging me to make pallets with my extensive photography collection!! BTW, I’m trying to figure out of the special edition Kuretake set of 100 includes the 48 and the art nouveau? Anyone know how to locate the contents of the Kuretake sets?
Oooh! Yes - you should make palettes with your photos! I do that too, but just haven’t gone through the trouble to do a bunch and print them… future project for sure! I’m not sure how to tell what colors are in each set for the Kuretake. I got the art nouveau set because I loved the colors… and added the 48 piece set after and got lucky… and now I love these so much I want them all 😂…
I found some info on the gansai tambi website that is helpful. It looks like they make 100 colors - so that is the entire set. Here is some info for you: www.gansaitambi.jp/en/
I don’t have a special link. Just very inspired lately to do the color palettes in art challenges. I’m obsessed with the cubes and being to hold them in my hand as I paint. 😊
I love your videos. You are so much fun! Even if I wasn’t a creative person I think I would subscribe just to listen to your excitement and surprise at your creations! ❤ from Canada.
Hi Denise, after watching this cool video, a how to make your own stencil thing popped up. I thought you might enjoy it! You make it with a hot glue gun, or with Elmer's glue. th-cam.com/video/YbLcxJ0RYQQ/w-d-xo.html
Oh cool! Thanks... I like making my own stencils with Yupo paper too... have you ever used Yupo? It is basically thin plastic paper... not very expensive for a whole pad... and you cut shapes out and have a great stencil. 😊
@@2lilowlsstudio I haven’t, but I’ve definitely heard of it and alcohol paints are so fantastic! That’s so cool you can use it for stencils too. I love how the artist works with them in these paintings. Have you ever done a video on your stencils? I’m pretty new to your tutorials and I’d love to see what you did! ♥️
@@KMercure I have a few skillshare classes making and using them. I haven’t done any for TH-cam. This channel is new… so I’m working on adding fun stuff. 😊
You should stick to the colors on the card cuz now im not enjoying you trying out the colors on the cards. Why have them if you are going to do your own thing?
I got as close as I could - might have looked different from the filming. I do think as an artist you should create in a way that delights you regardless of the choices others make. I use the cards as a guide, not as an absolute. I do challenges to learn and play and grow. Not to copy things exactly. 😊
Denise, you have given me the greatest gift I could have ever asked for. Because of you, my muse is completely awake and driving my artistic vibe once again!!! Thank you so much for your encouraging excitement and emotional support!! My little studio is back up and humming after 3 years of silence.

These are definitely more my colors after doing this challenge than before I started!! They turn out soooo good!! 😊
I really enjoy your discussions of color and composition. I wasn't sure about the two color swaps you made at the beginning, but in the end , they matched your palette challenge better.
This one came out way better than I thought it would! Glad you liked it!! Thank you! 🥰
You are full of energy and a delight to watch. Your excitement made me laugh.
Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
This colour pallet is one of my favourite, and I love what you have done with it. Congratulations
It was a challenge! But turned out so good. Thank you! ☺️
You have the utet diabolcal laught! It's so inspiring!❤
Thank you! 🥰
Long ways I saw a park until the first stencil was applied. Then when you turned it sideways I saw a park with reflection below. Very cool!! ☮️❤️
Oooh! Cool!! I can see it too 😊
You inspire me to try stencils over my abstract painting. They do make a difference. Gorgeous pieces.
I must be in a stencil mood lately… I’ve been obsessed with playing with them… they really do add a bit of extra fun to the pieces! Thank you! 🥰
I adore how excited and happy you get about your art. What an inspiration. ❤
Thank you!! 🥰🥰🥰
I loved these colors! Your pieces turned out beautifully! Thanks for the inspiration!
So glad you enjoyed this! Thank you! 🥰
I enjoy your process….we have to feel a bit of freedom to experiment…thanks for sharing 😉
So glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you! 🥰
I love how the base of watercolors is soft but strongly pigmented followed by the the acrylics! The layers are so much easier to see! Love love love it! I’m inspired to get the watercolors!
I agree! I love how they layer! Thank you! ☺️
When I watch your videos, the word "gleeful" comes to mind- the pure joy that shines through as you share your art is inspiring! Thank you!
Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰

I got the art nouveau set because I loved the colors… and added the 48 piece set after and got lucky… and now I love these so much I want them all 😂…
I found some info on the gansai tambi website that is helpful. It looks like they make 100 colors - so that is the entire set. Here is some info for you: www.gansaitambi.jp/en/
@@2lilowlsstudio many thanks for your help
Do you get credit if we purchase the color cubes? Do you have a link so Sarah knows you are advertising those for her?
I don’t have a special link. Just very inspired lately to do the color palettes in art challenges. I’m obsessed with the cubes and being to hold them in my hand as I paint. 😊
I love your videos. You are so much fun! Even if I wasn’t a creative person I think I would subscribe just to listen to your excitement and surprise at your creations! ❤ from Canada.
Eeeekkk... you've really made my day! This was a fun set. Thank you 🥰🥰🥰
You could turn the small ones into ATC‘s with a little extra like you did
Such a good idea! Thank you! ☺️

Thank you! ☺️
Yummy!

Hi Denise, after watching this cool video, a how to make your own stencil thing popped up. I thought you might enjoy it! You make it with a hot glue gun, or with Elmer's glue. th-cam.com/video/YbLcxJ0RYQQ/w-d-xo.html
Oh cool! Thanks... I like making my own stencils with Yupo paper too... have you ever used Yupo? It is basically thin plastic paper... not very expensive for a whole pad... and you cut shapes out and have a great stencil. 😊
@@2lilowlsstudio I haven’t, but I’ve definitely heard of it and alcohol paints are so fantastic! That’s so cool you can use it for stencils too. I love how the artist works with them in these paintings. Have you ever done a video on your stencils? I’m pretty new to your tutorials and I’d love to see what you did! ♥️
@@KMercure I have a few skillshare classes making and using them. I haven’t done any for TH-cam. This channel is new… so I’m working on adding fun stuff. 😊
You should stick to the colors on the card cuz now im not enjoying you trying out the colors on the cards. Why have them if you are going to do your own thing?
I got as close as I could - might have looked different from the filming. I do think as an artist you should create in a way that delights you regardless of the choices others make. I use the cards as a guide, not as an absolute. I do challenges to learn and play and grow. Not to copy things exactly. 😊
@@2lilowlsstudio I agree I like to adapt it's part of the creative process for me.play❤
