    Okay, I should be exclaiming, with my long ears alert and my little pink nose twitching as I consult my pocket watch, “I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date!”. But even though I’m not caught up with the 52 weeks, I am having a darned good time with my journal and the gel prints I have made so far.
    Robyn, you are absolutely The Superlative Artist. You can make any color scheme entrancingly lovely, as you did here. Your videos are wonderfully instructive, but also entertaining and interesting (somehow you breeze through an hour and fifteen minutes without ever running dry-and I know that is no easy thing to accomplish). I got on Patreon because I get so much out of your videos it simply seemed fair to pay you back, only to find I was eligible for even more fabulous videos! And I am so looking forward to your book.
    I don’t know if it’s a seasonal thing, but in just the past weeks, I’ve slid from exploring teaming Golden’s transparent brown oxide (which is really the most bewitching brown) with various blues, to building a few layers of the sheered-out brown over coffee stained paper. (Getting low on my big tube of heavy bodied paint, I’ve tried to buy it in the fluid form, only to find it apparently isn’t made in fluid acrylic (!) so I settled for a big jar of the heavier paint.). Also, while my go to metallic is Golden’s bronze, lately I’ve been mixing it with Golden’s regular gold and copper to get a metallic that is a bit brighter, so maybe that’s influenced by spring . . .
    Oh dear-this comment is supposed to be for the 15th Challenge video; the 16the must have sneaked in without me realizing the video changed. Oh well . . .

    Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤ I haven’t heard about Boro but it was so interesting that I looked up… At least I bought some Boro fabric for my journal 🎎🪭🧧🎐🥰 on etsy and found a guy on TH-cam „sashiko stitching“ or sthg like this and he is from japan …? explained the difference between Boro & Sashiko and he pronounced it exactly like you 😘

  • @63artemisia63
    @63artemisia63 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I’m always curious about words - spelling, pronunciation, etc. - so I looked up boro, partly because an O is so rarely pronounced like a U. And the only thing I know about Japanese is that words are usually pronounced the way they are spelled. Sure enough, it’s not pronounced “burrow” but FORO, almost like saying the number 4 and the letter O. Yep, the B sounds like an F, which is unexpected! Both O’s are long. But don’t quote me 😱 since Robyn probably learned from the expert she mentioned in her comment!

    • @RobynMcClendon
      @RobynMcClendon  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Lynn I’m always open to learning something new :).
      I’m only repeating the western accepted version of the pronunciation as I’ve heard and actually we shorten it to one boro. They would say boroboro making the r’s sound like n’s however most westerners who have even heard this term just say boro as in (bow row).
      Please share the source of your information and I’ll follow up!
      I’m certain that the Japanese would pronounce it differently (from region to region pronunciation varies the same as a southerner vs a northerner in America) considering that they wouldn’t spell it like that either as kanji is a ideogram language that uses a standardized 46 forms complicated by At least four other derivations of the kanji to make up a total of over 1000 of these complex ideograms...lol
      So it’s all a transliteration. Honestly Im no expert on this language I opt for what is commonly accepted
      Also which expert did I refer to regarding Boro? I know I share a lot with you all I just don’t remember referring to someone specific. Thx!

    Hi All! I didn't show the Boro stitch or (sashiko) this video in fact it never occurred to me as Boro means many things related to patching and little know is Boro Collage which I've taught in Patreon. However for those who would really like to explore the running stitch as well as other simple stitches not (sashiko specifically) I brought in a guest artist for my Free "The Voice of the Red Thread" January meet-up we did a lot there and had fun so here's the link and Enjoy! As always so much love to you all xoxo robyn-mcclendon.teachable.com/p/the-voice-of-the-red-thread

    Hi Robyn,
    Its Sara
    it is such a joy and kerning process to watch your videos, I love your spirituality personal and in your art!!!
    Thank you so much for your generous sharing your technic.
    Is there somewhere information on how you got your sacred writing? i'd to reed it... the energy in it is so powerful.
    and a question:
    You showed in this video a bigger art book you are using. Will you be so kind and let me know what size it is and what kind ?
    I'm from Israel and this kind of materials are difficult to find if any at all also very very expensive, so I'd like to order it amazon but i'd like to know the name of the product and manufacture it is.
    On amazon there is such a variety of materials and after being dissipated in the past from buying the wrong product I'm asking for a specific
    recommendation this days :)
    I hope it's OK with you.
    i'll continue watching you on TH-cam on Saturday.
    Thank you so much and all the best

      Hi Carol, Oh my how can you be disappointed with my Gift to you and the YT community, by now you know I don't believe in right or wrong, it's all just a journey! :) Actually I never said that I was going to do Boro stitching I referred to it as the Art of Boro, which includes stitching but also Collage. Little known is something called Boro Collage. Additionally, these are prompts that don't always have a technique applied to them. These are concepts that we can develop our ideas with.
      The whole point of this 52 weeks is to inspire and think outside of the box when it comes to our Art. It never occurred to show the boro stitch as it just a very simple running stitch, plus I really wanted to piece Text together in the style of Boro. Which so many people really wanted to learn.
      As with much of the Japanese aesthetic the words are not specifics as with English, but create moods that one can take liberty with, like wabi sabi this term is used in so so many ways meaning perfection in imperfection boroboro means to piece together and that can be many things. Try not to be disappointed as I'm taking you on a journey that you should really have no expectations except for it will last for 52 weeks and we will focus on our Art journaling the rest is meant to be unexpected and stimulating.
      If you go over to the January meet up in The Voice of the Red Thread, I brought a special guest in and we explored several stitches to include the running stitch which is commonly used in boro.... Here's the link Enjoy! xo robyn-mcclendon.teachable.com/p/the-voice-of-the-red-thread
