Thank you! We definitely want to make sure to round out your painting experience with us, just wouldn't be the same minus the giggles and sound effects, right?😉
Isn't the stamping technique so cool and totally easy? The possibilities are endless with how you could incorporate this technique into your future paintings. Thank you for watching along with us!❤️
Ok, YOU GUYS ARE A-MAZING!! I’m laughing out loud, cracking up all while learning excellent techniques. Both the techniques and delightful “OMG-I-LOVE-THEM-&-would totally hang out with them!” remain long after the video is over. My process - I watch the video first so I know what to expect then go back and paint along with the video. You guys are such a gift 💝 and a whole lotta Santa “Ho Ho” ‘s!!! 😂💃🏻
Dawn your kind comment totally made our day. We LOVE that we get to paint along with you and that you walk away from the experience happy! Thank you for loving and supporting our small business. What painting is next on your to do list to work on?
@@LetsMakeArt Well, funny you should ask. Ah-chem…😂 I had followed your (Sarah) advice of letting the painting guide you. You can tell I was DEFINITELY freed to have fun because I began painting birds “wing around each other” (I mean really?! THEY’RE BLACK SILHOUETTES! 🤣), then went with a supportive Winter Paralympic theme. Yup. Four card stamped swinging lines up top for the cheering audience, including a family of six. Then towards the bottom have two bolder lines with Olympic and Paralympic birds all singing! Yup. One’s doing an aerial twist and finally one that turned out looking like the HUGE black Angry Bird character. Other than that I just finished painting a camomile flower. I don’t need to settle down. No. I’m good. 🤪
Hi Sarah. I love your ideas for painting with watercolor! Your suggestion for using the side of your paper is awesome. I wanted to say that you actually did follow the strategy for odd numbers being pleasing in a composition. You had two wires with 5 birds on each.
You guys are the best - I often watch and re-watch your tutorials because you guys are just amazing humans and I like to hear you talk - apart from the very cool tutorials! Thank you for the Jurassic Park fun today, made me smile for the first time in a while. (Also I totally pictured a chicken sitting on that wire and I hope some people try and paint that :D )
Thank you for your extremely kind compliments! We feel so lucky that we get to paint alongside you. We love that you envisioned a chicken sitting on wire. That would be a really fun painting to try out. If you do bring that to life, let us know how it turns out.
Saran Wrap, that's such a great idea!! There really is something so fun about incorporating textures into your artwork. We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed this painting!💚
This was a nice one. I tried one with the plastic wrap technique too. Really nice project. AND today is my son Amos' birthday and he loves birds so win-win!
Happy birthday to your son!! That is so fun that you were able to paint this project today. We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed this project. How did the plastic wrap technique turn out?
I was SO excited to find you this morning. This is the perfect project for me and making the pledge to myself. Spot on!! I am going to attach mine onto card stock and write a card to my friend. She will love it too! Thank you for the inspiration and fun!
Welcome!! We are so happy that you found us and that we get you paint with you. We LOVE the idea of creating a card for your friend from this project, such a genius idea.
Could you have put plastic wrap over this while it was wet... let it dry and end up with some cool textures? Great job Sarah..always enjoy your videos. I subscribed because of your videos and i'm new to watercolor.
We're so happy that we get to paint along with you and hope you continue to enjoy the content we create! You could totally use plastic wrap to create some fun textures. Let us know if you try it and how it turns out!
Sounds like I am the exception to the rule. I’ve used Holbein Soft Tape four times since buying it in my last order and it tore my paper 3 of those 4 times. Blue painters tape doesn’t tear nearly as much for me.
Dang it. But, at least you found what works best for you. We totally think when you find what works best for you, you gotta hold true to it. Don't you think?
Lol, this reminds me of when I was is California for my daughter's wedding. I had a migraine so I went to the hotel to rest. Unbeknownst to me they were remodeling the room nextdoor. So Im in the dark trying to sleep and that noise happens. I was getting frustrated so I picked up my phone to record it. So theres a video of my explaing my problem. I said: "so Im trying to rest and the people nextdoor are screwing (at that moment the noise happens again)". Idkh but it got erased. Enjoy.....
Wonder if you used Saran Wrap for texture that would lift less of the color so you could keep your darker color? (Oops, wrote that before reading the other comments or hearing her mention it .😂)
Next project will be a Dino 🤔😁 I like the stamping technique; I'm actually using this for thin lines of masking fluid! Works perfectly. Have to go to practise birdies now 😊
We're so happy you're enjoying this stamping technique. Using this technique alongside masking fluid is a genius idea. Have fun practicing your birdies!
Adorable painting! We don't just get valuable painting lessons here, we also get special sound effects and plenty of giggles! Love you guys...
Thank you! We definitely want to make sure to round out your painting experience with us, just wouldn't be the same minus the giggles and sound effects, right?😉
Doing this again today. And now I want to letter "Snacks are key" - Keenan
That's just good life advice!
Wow I love the stamping technique this is why I love LMA so much great videos and great information… plus Sarah and Keenan what’s not to love💕🦋
Isn't the stamping technique so cool and totally easy? The possibilities are endless with how you could incorporate this technique into your future paintings. Thank you for watching along with us!❤️
I TOTALLY agree! We all have never met but by them being their delightful selves, feels like one big-yet close-family!

Thank you for sharing your joy, talent, and wisdom!!! You and Keenan are pure delight!!!

Sarah Cray was my first thought when I read Saran Wrap. I thought you were making a joke 😂
🤣🤣🤣 that's so JURASSIC!!!!
This was a nice one. I tried one with the plastic wrap technique too. Really nice project. AND today is my son Amos' birthday and he loves birds so win-win!

Hahaha.. It did sound like a Dino... It was just an added bonus.. Hehe
Totally!!😂
Next project will be a Dino 🤔😁
I like the stamping technique;
I'm actually using this for thin lines of masking fluid! Works perfectly.
Have to go to practise birdies now 😊
We're so happy you're enjoying this stamping technique. Using this technique alongside masking fluid is a genius idea. Have fun practicing your birdies!
Thank you for this, I love the stamp wire idea. Cannon a video isn't complete without you talking about food.
We love hearing that you enjoyed the stamp technique Sarah did for this project. Keenan totally does love his snacks.
