One minute I was looking at a brown stick figure and the next, it was a realistic deer with antlers. I actually went to pick the card up off the screen to see it closer! On the cabin card the whole thing popped when you highlighted the the snow below the cabin. I kept saying put some footprints in there. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Thank you sooo much, Ellen 🤗 PAM
Dear Ellen, thank you very much for your thorough tutorials and for helping me wake up my creativity! I’ve always thought that I couldn’t paint, which was true. But thanks to you I’ve realised that I don’t have to be a real artist to paint what I want. I can do it for my pleasure, simply enjoying the process. And I love it how you make everything look simple, but at the same time beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️
I panted along with you this time, but darned if I just don’t get enough paint on the paper!! I have the hardest time with water control. Practice, practice, practice! I love these scenes. Thank you so much!
Thank you! I'm getting started on my Christmas cards November 1st. I only make 5-6 cards to send out to close family members. I'm so excited to see the designs and ideas 😍🎄🦌 I have the sketch ready to go!
I love your paintings! They are just what I have been looking for and you help me see myself doing them. Great approach to watercolor. Thanks so much. 🎄❤❄🦌
Ellen, these are a delight...thanks so much...listening to you and the way you do your tutorial...it is like sitting with one of my friends...you are so down to earth. You walk us through these creations and bring ou the best in us!!!
Ellen. Question and gratitude....,Your teaching style is the best! I love your tips n tricks......thank you for helping me to earn this relaxing art. And........I wonder if you have a second best watercolor brand since the Holbein is a bit expensive. Is there a good quality that's a bit less? I am getting the brushes ou recommended cuz they really make a huge difference!
I’ve been using Daniel Smith (local for me in Seattle) but $25 on Amazon for 6 mini tubes (warm red/cool red, warm blue/cool blue, and warm yellow/cool yellow - mixing new colors take some practice but I love it! The pigment is so smooth and wet on wet has been gorgeous. Another brand I’ve used before Smith was Kuretake Gansai Tambi - you can add more water for a gouache effect which is nice because I use the white for snowflakes. The paper is important too - Arches is pricey but so worth it especially if you use a lot of water (like I do) Happy art making Mary!!! Hope this helped 🌺
I've been struggling to paint animals, and you did it very well! I never make a proportional one. It always looks silly. :') Once I tried to paint a deer and my friend said, "Is it pregnant? And what happen to the head? It looks ad chubby as cat. So it's a cat with antlers, then?" 😂😂
They’re tough to paint LOL, my deer had alien looking eyes. It’s all good, I plan to make more and hopefully the eyes become more deer like over time 🤣🤣🤣 Don’t give up!

Да у художников все легко.... Там мазнем, там разотрем и шедевр😁
My family acts like i dont exsist. Sucks i cant send christmas cards out
Make them for your own enjoyment. Sometimes family is not the way we need them to be. Take care of yourself.
so sorry send them to friends then :)
Neighbours always appreciate lovely cards ♥️
