Looks like fun. I am seeing it differently though. To me, it appears the first one you drew was only a head on shot. The backside of the one seems to belong to the sheep furthest in the back. It is hard to see for sure. Either way, you always do such a great job. Love your determination to make it all work. Thanks for showing us and encouraging us to never give up on what we're working on. To be fair, I did skip forward a bit as I'm going to be late and wanted to catch as much as I could.
Vintage Lindsay!!!......the M Graham palette, big watercolour brush, few extra supplies and a lot of determination! An inspirational hour spent watching you work. TFS!!
I enjoyed this painting tutorial. I’ve even seen sheep these colours at our country shows. I believe I have a whole set of those pens somewhere in my craft room that I bought for my grandchildren. I might need to dig them out.
I think they're adorably cute. That guy on the right looks a bit snooty but he'll get over it. Sheep do have a condescending way of looking you right in the eye and making you feel like you're in a staring contest. I'm trying to find the ref pic on Unsplash to give this a try. If you had any doubts about this one, they're not obvious and you recovered well. I think these types of tutorials, albeit frustrating for you, help us novices to persevere. Don't give up, trust the process. Thanks for sharing.
Well, I love the pen and ordered one 😂 Your reviews have sold me more art supplies than anyone else. There were a few times i hollered "stop!" But thankfully you pulled it off. Definitely a load of fun to watch!
Raising the middle sheep's eyes made it work. You also made the first sheep's behind work, even though it's not his. lol, You are certainly determined, and you were successful!! They look cute! I love them all!
Im really grateful you decided to share this video with us. I learned a lot. It was so refreshing to see a painting been fixed. Perfection doesnt exist and to see you dealing with this was so inspiring. ❤❤❤❤ P.S. The sheep on the left looks weird cause it was actually standing straight. You drew the rear of the sheep on the back of the reference photo. That sheep was standing sideways. 😉 So, basically, you did a Frankensheep! 😅
I loved doing this project, but in the spirit of “use what you have,” I used my elegant writer! It was so much fun! Be kind to yourself; I think your work is amazing! Thank you for sharing the real process of loving art.
This turned out great! To answer your questions about horns: it depends on the breed. About sheering- they all need sheering. We raised Friesian sheep for years.
This is wonderful! I love using strange supplies to see what happens. I pretty much add water to everything just to see what happens. Sometimes the results are hilariously terrible, but nothing ventured nothing gained!
Hullo Lindsay, I do enjoy watching you attack these mixed media paintings! You use your reference and create a painting that makes it all your own, So Well Done! I feel like you made dying the wool a superfluous step! I know this is silly the wool will still need to be dyed and spun and all the rest of it, but your sheep are quite a lovely pastel shade! Thanks for posting another winning video!
I love this one. I don’t have any Sparkle Pops on hand but got a similar effect mixing a grey Diamine ink with a shimmer Dominant Industries ink and applying with a dip pen. When I go back with water and brush not quite as juicy acting as yours, but that might be the paper. Thanks for another fun tutorial. 🐑
I love the Pentel Sparkle Pop pens! I use them mostly for holiday cards. I've used the same set of pens for 5 years, and they're still going strong - nice juicy ink flow and sparkle! No sign of drying out or ink skipping.
I’ve been off TH-cam for a week and I’ve missed so much. Trying to catch up on all your videos. Love this painting so far and I know it is going to be gorgeous ❤
🎉🎉 brilliant vid title. i could not click fast enough and i was in the middle of drawing 😊 and doing some online research thank you for a wonderful and much needed break. you’re the BEST
Thx Lindsay 🌿 I’ve drawn my sheep and included a part of another one behind it too. Lol They are looking at you, asking if you said ‘treat!’ 😂❤🌿 Love it
Such fun! These pens are 10€ each in 🇩🇪😞. I experimented with fountain pen ink instead. Diamine has several that swoosh out in different colours when wet with a brush. I tried with "Earl Grey" (black reddish grey) and "Smoke on the water" (blue green). I will try with other inks, as I have more ink bottles than I hope to write with 😂. Thanks for these lovely sheep and beautiful door.
I think having the pack of them is worth it. The gold and silver are great for outline work, the most shiny pens I’ve ever tried, then there’s a pink, blue violet, blue green, and the ones with blue get pretty dark.
You always do awesome work. Thank you for sharing with us, you give me inspiration to pick up the brush again, *and other stuff I've never tried in 30+ years. Lol the one on the left looks like he's standing opposite of the way on the right. You did great!
very cool .i want to paint an image i saw in the clouds as a kid ,it was Jesus with a cane and 3 sheep to his right hand ,i also want to paint a river with gems in the water,love your channel
I had to think on this one for a minute. I am Not going to buy another pen! I actually just bought the last one you recommended... and it's still in the package! 😂❤ (the Pentel brush with the refills) So... I have a pen from Timu, and the ink is very water soluble. It dilutes to a beautiful Prussian blue. I did a little test sheepie, and it's adorable! ❤🎉 This is such a great idea!! The page I tested it on also had some homemade Walnut ink which is also water soluble, so I'm thinking of doing a series using those and maybe some watercolor pencils or the brush pens that I've never gotten out. It's a great way to test out my different supplies and get some practice on the sheep before I try something giftable. ❤ 😅
Lindsay, do you know that you have a sheep standing sideways behind the sheep on the far left? That could be what's throwing you off on his backside and weird legs. Makes that sheep in the front left look like he has an enormous rump! Lol
I can’t find ‘sparkle pop’ anywhere in the UK, but I can find ‘Pentel hybrid dual metallic gel pens’. They look to be the same, maybe we’re just not ready for a pen called sparkle pop 😂 Ordered one to have a try as I love the way this wicks out.
It feels a bit flimsy to me, but I am more used to having my sketchbook on my lap. I guess for the price, it's good, but it dosnt suit me as well as I'd hoped.
This looks like so much fun I ordered the pens. How does the experience of these pens compare to using the elegant writer? I've been too busy for much art in July, but I have some time off in August so that will be my personal art month. I'm aiming to do some art every day. Can't wait! I'm looking forward to trying this. In the meantime I'm going to experiment with some pens and inks I already have.
The Bleed Proof white worked well. You are bothered by the rear end of the left sheep because that actually is the back of the fourth sheep. Nonetheless I think you made it work, it's great that you didn't give up and voila... a painting in under one hour.
I sketched it with the pen and then pulled out the color with a wet brush and added watercolor (yellow ochre,quin rose and colbalt teal I think) if you look on my Instagram you can see step by step photos.
Horns on the sheep or cattle is usually determined by the breed, not the sex. Most of the males will have larger or heavier horns for fighting, but female s will have some kind of horn as well.
Amazing and beautiful painting. ❤ I just have a question about bleedproof white. Do you let it dry first before you put the lid back on the bottle? Or is it okay to close it even if there's still a bit of water?Thanks.
Hi Lindsay, I think you enjoy painting more when your not having to explain, where as you start overthinking it when you are having to explain what you are doing maybe.
It’s really bothering me that you added the butt of the sheep facing sideways in the background to the sheep that is facing forwards on the left! 😂😂😂😂😂
Makes me feel so much better to see you struggle. I mean that in a good way. Social media artists seldom post anything other than their perfect 👌🏽 finished pieces. It makes our blank pages/WC paper intimidating. I was a professional for years. I am in the field on the Epstein/Wall St racketeering investigation and have lost touch with my true passion. I am so grateful for the community you've helped to create. I am disgusted with the corporations finding ways to exploit artists as influencers and not fairly compensating them. All part of our investigation. Epsteins partners-in-crime on Wall St aka Big Tech, Big Businesses in general are all about exploiting the rest of us as consumers & creators.
🥰😅🤣😂 It is so funny listening to someone who doesn't know livestock "intimately" try to figure out pieces & parts & to understand who is where. 🤣😂 Sorry, I am laughing with you, not at you. Yes, sheep look like Yoda, but their intractible behavior & supercilious attitudes are legendary, a lot more like Tusken Raiders. You only have 4 sheep in the photo-16 legs, 15 easy to see. The rump of ewe # 2 is to the left of Ewe #1, she's cross-wise to the flock. Yep, they are all probably pregnant with twins, that's how my girls looked a few days before lambing time. That is. except for ewe #4. It might be she's younger & will have a single first time around.
I have those pens & I was honestly working on those prompts! I am so, so, so excited. I had started working on a Nautilus shell for spiral. I collect Nautilus shells! I was also a spinner/weaver and I was trying to decide what to do for fiber. I figured I would do something with my piles of wool roving or a fleece for fiber, never thought of using photos of our sheep and going back to the source!! Thanks for the superb ideas, I will look no further Lord Bless!
You drew the butt of the second sheep from photo standing behind the first sheep as part of the first one😂 artistic license.
That's why the legs look sorta weird.
@@jimflack9462 yep
I was gonna say this too! Looks like a bubble butt😂
It’s real painting…time for me to paint. Thanks, Lindsay 😊
It’s like little bo peeps sheep from toy story where the number of legs and heads dont match up lol
Looks like fun. I am seeing it differently though. To me, it appears the first one you drew was only a head on shot. The backside of the one seems to belong to the sheep furthest in the back.

I loved how that white totally transformed the sheep.

Glad you like them!
You did great with what was happening. Sometimes supplies take on a life of their own. Lol
Haha yes
I absolutely love these sheep. I need them on my wall. I'll have to get that sparkle pop pen and try this.
Raising the middle sheep's eyes made it work. You also made the first sheep's behind work, even though it's not his. lol, You are certainly determined, and you were successful!! They look cute! I love them all!

Thank you! This was fun. I like seeing how you 'naturally' create. And the sheep are adorable.

So cute!! Thanks for showing us the full process. I always learn so much with your videos.
You are so welcome!
Love, love , love
So cool. Spraying the mist was mindblowing!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you Lindsay , love how you stayed with it and made it right , i could use some of your determination , and it turned out out great 😊❤
You can do it!
Appreciate how authentic you are with this. Reminds me of myself reworking a pc over and over till it looks decent!😂
This turned out great! To answer your questions about horns: it depends on the breed. About sheering- they all need sheering. We raised Friesian sheep for years.
Good to know 😌

Great technique! I've got an entire set of Sparkle Pop. I must pull them out to play.
Please do!
I love all my sparkle pops but this a whole new twist. Thanks Lindsey 😊
You are so welcome!
Love seeing the process and yes, they’re cute!
Thanks 😊

Indeed, Diamine Inks are fabulous for this effect. This turned out to be such a fun sketch!
These sheep are adorable
I like your saying about pushing through, and you did,and the painting turned out well!😉

Welcome back!
I love it and would proudly hang it on my wall. Every painting I do is this long frustrating process though, lol.
Thanks 😊
What a cool technique! I enjoyed watching this and now I am off to find my Sparkle pop pen. 😊
Have fun!
These sparkle pop pens are amazing they are the best gel pens ever!❤❤❤
8:40 why do I feel like I'm about to be robbed? 😂 they are a bit menacing looking at this point, and I find that hilarious 🤣
Lol 😆
Hi, Lindsay. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
🎉🎉 brilliant vid title. i could not click fast enough and i was in the middle of drawing 😊 and doing some online research
thank you for a wonderful and much needed break. you’re the BEST
Thank you so much 😀
Awwww - I love these "judgmental" sheep, hehe! Such a cool effect w/ these pens. 💗
Thx Lindsay 🌿 I’ve drawn my sheep and included a part of another one behind it too. Lol They are looking at you, asking if you said ‘treat!’ 😂❤🌿 Love it
I love your sheep...and the different colors! 👍
Thank you. I am going to try this. I love my sparkle pop pens but I never thought to use them this way.
You are so welcome!
It turned out very well, actually. Kudos to you, for I would not be able to talk and work on art at the same time! 🥰❤
Thank you so much 😀

Such a fun art piece!! Thanks for sharing ❤
My pleasure 😊
They’re adorable! I like to begin with a pen, but I’m always off with my initial marks. Good to see a pro “not like “ your beginning marks. Thanks!
I think having the pack of them is worth it. The gold and silver are great for outline work, the most shiny pens I’ve ever tried, then there’s a pink, blue violet, blue green, and the ones with blue get pretty dark.
Good to know!
Awesome colours ❤ I bought myself a small pastel paint set, that I wanted for a long time. Can't wait to try them.❤
Have fun!
Beautifully done! I love it
Thank you! Cheers!
These look like fun to paint. Watching now, but will paint these cuties.
love it!!! I shared it to try later. Thank you!!!! I always love your art!
Yay! Thank you!
Very cute. 😊
Thank you! 😊
That was so fun, thanks.❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
These guys are so cute! What fun colours. I have an old set of gel pens I don’t really use. I’m going to experiment!
Have fun!
I love your sheep Lindsay! Trés skewt!! 💜✨🥰
Thanks 😊
These look amazing ☺☺
I love this. I wanna see what water soluable pens I have and see what they do. Thanks for the inspiration!
You are so welcome!
What a fun find, that pen does some cool things. Your art work always turns out amazing. Lindsey, you are a great artist
Thank you so much!
You always do awesome work. Thank you for sharing with us, you give me inspiration to pick up the brush again, *and other stuff I've never tried in 30+ years. Lol the one on the left looks like he's standing opposite of the way on the right. You did great!

I love this technique! Came out so pretty!
Thank you so much!
People think sheep say "baa, baa, baa" but actually they say, "meh, meh, meh". LOL!
😄
Very cool! ❤ Thanks Lindsay
Cuuuuuute❤

I realize that now 😆 🤣 😂
@@thefrugalcrafter I'm so sorry! I wasn't poking fun! :) 🥰
Interesting pen effects. The Sheep Gang approves. :
To me, it looks like you drew the backside of the fourth sheep in the reference! This was nice though 😊
I think I might have 😆
I can’t find ‘sparkle pop’ anywhere in the UK, but I can find ‘Pentel hybrid dual metallic gel pens’. They look to be the same, maybe we’re just not ready for a pen called sparkle pop 😂 Ordered one to have a try as I love the way this wicks out.

I LOVE this! But my lunch break is over so I'll have to come back.
I'll be here!
Hi Lindsay, the sheep are amazing, my favorite is the shell. An aside, what are your thoughts on the Medeen watercolor plein air easel?
It feels a bit flimsy to me, but I am more used to having my sketchbook on my lap. I guess for the price, it's good, but it dosnt suit me as well as I'd hoped.
I love this! Limdsay, will the ink ruin a good brush (even if it’s synthetic)?
This looks like so much fun I ordered the pens. How does the experience of these pens compare to using the elegant writer?
I've been too busy for much art in July, but I have some time off in August so that will be my personal art month. I'm aiming to do some art every day. Can't wait! I'm looking forward to trying this. In the meantime I'm going to experiment with some pens and inks I already have.

Maybe the art supply fairy brought you the sparklePop pen!
Haha maybe!
If all fails you can turn m in to sottish blue head christmas sheep. Splatter the life out of the bleed proof white and call it done :P
I love sheep! Gorgeous painting. What is the white stick that you used? Inktense blocks?
Yes!
@@thefrugalcrafter thank you
QUESTION is it possible to explain how you painted the shell? Did you use masking fluid? Love the sheep.
I sketched it with the pen and then pulled out the color with a wet brush and added watercolor (yellow ochre,quin rose and colbalt teal I think) if you look on my Instagram you can see step by step photos.

No, I try not to let it dry out. I add a bit of water if it's getting dry.
@@thefrugalcrafter oh okay got it. Thank you so much for your reply. 😊
I think the first sheep looked odd because you can see the backside of the second sheep that is standing sideways.
