- Looking for the right pink ! Mixing a variety of reds to find what I'm after. Continuing with the painted/mixed media tulips from last week, exploring different ideas.
#mixingcolours #arttechniques #experimentalart
The trouble with binge watching all of your previous blogs is that I now have to wait every week for a new one! It was worth the wait………and now another 7 days 😢😂❤
I know your pain. Wednesdays are now the longest days ever
Same here… always waiting for Gaynor 😂 That sounds like a book ✌🏼
Same here. Working through all the videos and really liking them. Gaynor, you are such a lovely person, so much enthusiasm and energy!! Thanks for sharing so much!! ❤
@@dianecourtney2724 maybe we should paint pictures with that title!
THANK YOU ANDREA XX
Thanks to you Gaynor I've just done a landscape painting that had my best ever foreground foliage, a good middle ground semi abstract field and a good sky........ BUT they didn't go together.
So I haven't the skill to make them go together and then I had a brainwave? I found my Stanley knife and chopped off the top third (it was an a canvas board) and surprise surprise I now have TWO really good paintings.
I wouldn't have thought about that if it hadn't been for your inspiration to do anything and never give up.
Take care.
LOVED reading this message Keith....so so pleased for you. Have a wonderful week X
Hi Gaynor you are a bundle of fun. I love the variety of subjects you go through it makes it so interesting. Love your paintings and how you manage to completely alter a picture for the better. Enjoy Mothers day.❤❤❤
Ahhh, thank you Andrea for a really lovely message, I'm very grateful XXX
Another great video and I am not all the way through thank you Gaynor so pleased for your success in selling your wonderful paintings.

Hello Gaynor, good luck with the exhibition and well done having new and different work. You have such a variety now for everyone to enjoy. Another fun video. Thank you. Have a good week. 💐
Thank you so much 😊
Hello Gaynor!
Great paintings!
Chocolate and Matisse colors are inspiring!
Your truffle dog rocks on the vlog!
Happy pop up art!
Ahhh Such a lovely comment, Thank You so much XXX
Tulips 1 and Big Tulips look fab in their frames, so vibrant! I love the textures of the chair/table in your old sketchbook too. Have fun at your exhibition Gaynor ❤
Thank you Charlotte, currently I have a mix of nerves and excitement but will be fine once all the hanging is done !!!! Have a wonderful week XXX
I’m addicted to your videos! Always waiting for them every Thursday! I love your paintings and your sense of humor! You inspire me and at the same time make me laugh! Love it!!!!❤❤
Hello Patricia....so lovely to read your kind comment....Heartfelt thanks XXX
@@gaynorpattle❤
I look forward to my Thursday mornings with you. You are such an inspiration and your paintings are just beautiful! Thanks Gaynor.
Thank you so much! XX
Awww poor Rocket! He's such a cutie pie!! 💖🤗 absolutely love the red tulips, looks amazing all framed up. And the Orange chair is fab too. Loved the pink mixes! 🤗💖😊
Thank you 🤗 X
Rocket thinks he's a squirrel 😂. Loving your tulip pics x
That is so funny....the squirrels in our garden drive him bonkers !!!! Have a lovely weekend X
Those tulips are beautiful in the frame. Well done. Great series. Love the Matisse chair.
Thanks so much Mary X
Spring has sprung in Gaynor's studio. Amazing that good old Cad. R. med. made such a lovely neutral pink. I like it! lightening Reds is so challenging - too cool, too warm, or goldilocks perfect. I pretty well put most of my reds in their beds and mainly use Pyrrole PR254. I find I can warm or cool it easily. I'd forgotten how much I liked Cad. R. Lt. It makes a good, more opaque orange when warmed. Thank you for giving us this video when you are so busy. Take care of yourself.
Hello Ann, Having a little break soon, a chance to recharge and hopefully fill the art tank with fresh ideas !! Have a wonderful week XX
You always make me smile with your sweet sense of humor. I absolutely love your videos and your work.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your support X
Congratulations on the website sales Gaynor and enjoy your art sale this coming weekend. Lots to be excited about! When you mentioned chocolate I thought you meant chocolate coloured paint at first! I then started to imagine chocolate coloured paint with a bright blue and a pink as a colour combination! All your tulip paintings are developing nicely. Enjoy your weekend at the Pantiles! X
Thank you Simone, praying for some nice weather...well anything but not rain !!! X
I like that you persevere. You push through the ugly stage to find new beauty. I think a lot of people including me, get stuck at the ugly stage. X
Hello Judy, ....as much as I can I practice, practice, practice ! Have a wonderful week X
Love yr work as always....and yr joy in what u do. ❤
Thank You Pat XX
It’s over too soon! Such gorgeous work. I love big tulips and all the chairs. Your sketchbook pink is fantastic too. Thank you .
Thank you so much! X
Your videos are always a delight! So happy for you with your upcoming exhibition and website sales!
Thank You Cheryl, I am very grateful for your kind wishes XX
Gaynor, as always it was a treat watching you this morning< informative and silly just what I like to start out my morning with.

Thank You XX
Hi Gaynor fab fun video this week!Nothing wrong with nutty moments they are in us to makes us laugh and enjoy life!Everything has a reason lol!!Loving the tulips and hope they all make the exhibition..must be so hard to choose which to take!Your charcoal Roman bust is wonderful,would love to see some of your old work,maybe you could have an episode where you get it all out and show us!!!👍🏻Poor Rocket!they don’t do themselves any favours do they!I had a dog that used to eat bulbs,the squirrels used to get the blame until he was caught red pawed lol!😀You can some effective citrus dog repellent,give it a go..Have a Lovely Mothers Day,hope naughty Rocket has got you a card!(give him a hug from me!)❤Enjoy the exhibition!!❤
Hello Beverly...Rocket is driving us bonkers....the latest trick is to reach (somehow) into tall planters and haul out bulbs !!!! I go charging outside and then it's a running game around the garden...guess who wins ! I will look for the spray, thank you XX
Congrats on your exhibition, wishing you lots of success!
THANK YOU XX
You bright and happy excitement is contagious! I love an look forward to all your discoveries with you!

Love the red, black-and-white and blue❤
Thank you XX
Loving the blue of tulips 1 and then the green in big tulips!
Thank You XX
I LOVE YOUR BEAUTIFUL PAINTINGS.very interesting videos too ❤
THANK YOU X
Do you ever get discouraged and just bin a painting in progress? I love how your response to something you aren’t fond of is not « yuck », but « more work to be done on that » - what a great approach!
REBECCA.....if only you knew how many paintings I have binned !!!! Before I realised there is an alternative way ..... I wish I could have them all back BUT I learned something along the way !! XX
Thought of you as I viewed your Matisse inspiration at the Detroit Institute of Art. I tried to attach a picture, but couldn’t. It deserves all our admiration. A beautiful work. Congrats on your exhibition, and thanks again for a wonderful post today. Bonnie in Michigan.
Oh you lucky girl !! I am craving the opportunity to stand and behold a Matisse !!!! Thank you Bonnie XXX
I so look forward to your weekly video! I love all of the pinks!
Hello Kate, Thank you for a lovely comment, have a great weekend X
Always lovely to see your works. Love the orange chair!! Your tulips are such fun and to see you develop them. And, Rocket! I was just telling my husband about Rocket just yesterday, will show him today. Hope he feels better very soon. Have a great show this weekend. Congratulations on your website, i know it will be a big success. Have a great week!
Thank you for your kind wishes Kathy....Rocket's desire for bulbs is so strong that he's even dragged them from a tall planter !!! Have a wonderful week XXX
I just love your videos so much! And i learn a ton, specially about having fun and experimenting with art. Thank you!
Very Very kind, heartfelt thanks XX
Yes yes yeeeesssss🎉🎉🎉❤
Thanks so much for brightening my day with your beautiful spirit and artwork Gaynor I was working on a project while watching you create magic Happy Mothers day weekend ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Deborah, such kindness XXX
I make mod podge. 3 parts Pva, 1 part water, then a glug of water based varnish. I used it for my collage workshop that I ran I my studio in Kent last week.
Interesting!
THANK YOU ....will be giving that a go for sure XX
Love when you dont mute out the sound when you speed up the video...❤❤
also ❤ the addition of yout yummy treat.
I Look forward to your posts each week...your style is inspiring to me. I love how you blend abstract and impressionism and your process ❤
Such a kind, fantastic comment, THANK YOU X
Save some nutty chocolate for me, hopefully I can visit on Saturday.
HOW EXCITING XXXX
Smiles from Dunedin FL. US…Happy to see your work…xoxoxoox
Thank You Andrea XX
I always smile while watching you😊 your videos are so entertaining and,of course, full of usefull information😀
Thank you so much 😀
Great video Gaynor, very productive. Hello Rocket, you doggies all have your naughty moments,😅 .....Alioban ❤
Thank You Alison XXX
Lovely work Gaynor, I Hope you find time for the hyacinths, they are a fantastic subject to drawn and paint and I'd love to see what you do with them.
Will do XX
Couldn’t hardly wait for Thursday-tulips being my favorite flower I was so excited to see your continuation of your tulip studies/inspiration. You are sooooo creative! I see your work and just say to myself, “how does Gaynor come up with the variety of compositions?” I watch you to admire your work and try and get some inspiration! Love your semi-abstract style❤😊
Hi Sherrie X I have just tracked your parcel and it is in transit in the US !! I hope you receive it soon. Heartfelt thanks for this lovely comment XX
I can’t wait to have it hanging in my home!!! Thanks
Really loved the pink you got in the Matisse chair in your sketchbook! 😍 I found you could really see the colour intensity in the picture rather than in the video showing of it.
Always love seeing other artists that have lots going on all at once and have different projects all over the place in different stages of completion, it’s reassuring! Hihihi! I feel like to “normal people” I must seem so scattered but then I see from artists TH-camrs that I am not alone in that. Fiew! I am normal among my kind. Hahaha!
Doesn't it feel good to scatter !!! Have a great weekend XX
YAY Thursday!! I watched while working today. I could not wait until I got off for the evening 😊 Love love the tulips and can't wait for the window flowers too!! Thanks for the Rocket fix ❤ SO glad he is feeling better. I am happy that your little shop is moving and grooving too!! Yay!! I do hope that you will make more cards to maybe put in it and by Fall you'll be shipping to the States. I loved the cards and they made me feel like they were possibly something that I could strive to achieve on that scale as a beginner. Love those and always when you play with the gelli plate and use items ie. flowers, leaves etc. Have a wonderful weekend!! 👋 Roxanne from Atlanta, GA ❤
Hi Roxanne, I am overdue a session on card making !!! I am thinking about prints etc and will look into the shipping and packaging for those items. Rocket sends his very best even though he is grumpy about a bulb ban !!! Have a fantastic week XX
I’m a newbie who has become besotted with your generosity and enthusiasm…..plus a little bit ‘ green eyed monster’ about your lovely cabin. Where do you get your black frames from please?
Hello Deborah, Lovely to hear from newbies .... thank you for watching and taking time to comment. The latest frames are from Ikea, I usually don't think the quality is great but these were more expensive and are well put together. Have a great week XX
Found myself GRINNING at so many points in this video. You're so fantastic. ⭐🤩🤩💛 P.s. the red and pink are amazing!!
Ahhh hello lovely one ❤❤❤ glad you liked it !! XXX
Hi Gaynor 😊
Pyrrole orange by Golden mixed with white gives a beautiful glowy pink! 🤩
Hi Teresa, I've made a note and will put the Pyrrole orange on my paint list...thank you X Have a great weekend XX
Hi. I found a brilliant supply of gorgeous frames at our local Reuse shop when I went to the tip last week……average price about £4 !!! Great for seeing your work in a frame and keeping them safe. One or two of them were in absolutely perfect condition….as new!!! Now, of course I have to cut my paper to fit a potential frame before I begin a painting.
We have many charity stores but the frames go like hot cakes !!! Well done on your find XX
What a pleasure to watch you work! I came upon your channel today and look forward to your videos and inspirations! Congratulations on your website sales doing well.
Thank you so much! Lovely to hear from a new viewer. Thank you for watching and taking time to leave a great comment XX
Hi Gaynor, just to let you know I’ve started a sketch book all because of you. Really enjoying it too. Think it’s time Rocket started painting to keep him out of mischief. Have fun this weekend 😂
Hello Wendy, MUSIC TO MY EARS !!!!! Very exciting and I am glad you're enjoying it. We shouldn't be surprised....as a puppy, I remember planting things and he'd come behind raking everything back out of the soil !!! Have a great week XX
I absolutely love what you do,and I am trying my brush’s at it…. 😢 keep sending these from Canada.
Keep practising by working in rotation - you can do it XXX
This was lots of fun. So many pretty things.😊❤
Thank You XX
🌬️ I hope Spring comes sooner than later for you. 🙏🏼 What a fun idea, PINK! We love you Gaynor 💕 Keep painting!
Also, have you thought of selling your artwork inside you cabin with a walkabout? I saw someone from Australia do that and they made out like a bandit and didnt have far to go. I think the public viewing of an artist studio is more inviting for sales so I hope you get the chance to do that.
Your Painting Pal in Arizona. ❤🎨
Hello Stefanie, more food for thought ! Thank You and have a wonderful week in Arizona XX
Good morning. I’m fascinated by the journey of the tulip paintings. I journeyed too from I liked, l didn’t like, it was okay and then I liked. I’m not good at the risk taking part but continue to work on it. I’ve got 20 more days of exhibit time on my first show and I’ve sold two paintings! I’m shocked but excited too. Thank you for being such a wonderful inspiration. I hope your exhibit goes well. Have a lovely week. 💐🪻
CONGRATULATIONS XXXXX
Good luck with the exhibition Gaynor and have a lovely week yourself! Those chocolate shards look delish!
Thank You XX
Apparently Mod Podge yellows over time. I wouldn’t want to risk using it as a varnish. I’m so in love with your work!
Good to know....thanks for sharing X
Another super session, thanks Gaynor.
Opera Rose by Windsor & Newton is my all time favourite pink at the moment !
So kind of you to say Melanie, Thank You and I'll look to see if I have Opera Rose XX
Rocket!!! We have cats and they too munch on things in the garden that they shouldn´t . . . and so a lot of plants have to be covered over.- I hope he is better. Seems like those hyacinths are rockets too.
I know !!! He is a bit grumpy now the game is up....caught with bulb in mouth together with a clod of dirt !!!! Have a lovely week X
@@gaynorpattleI think you had better get some images down of those hyacinths pronto - as THEY are certainly not dragging their heels.
Gaynor,
I so love watching your videos! They are full of inspiration and ideas. More importantly, I love your enthusiasm...Your joy and love of life, nature and beauty exudes throughout your work.......
Thank you so much for sharing your process and "giving it a go".
Good luck with your exhibition,! It takes courage and bravery to put your work out there .
On a side note, astrologically speaking this is an 8 year a time to take action and you certainly are doing that......keeping going, your doing great!❤❤❤
Hello Kim, Thank you for such a lovely comment. I keep thinking "I'm pushing my luck with too many balls in the air" but I can't seem to stop !!! I will need to investigate an 8 year - you've peaked my interest XX
These look wonderful, I love it ☺☺☺
Thank You X
Great videos Gaynor and through you I found out about Art2Life. This sharing is so valuable. Thankyou
Hi Dianne, the sharing is fantastic ! Thank You for a lovely comment X
Fantastic! I love your style... thank you TH-cam for showing me this video. I just subscribed...
Thank you for watching and subscribing, I am very grateful XX
Such a wonderful video Gaynor TY. Feeling inspired thanks to you. Also Naughty Rocket needs his own channel 😂🌷
AHHH This makes me smile ...Thank You XXX
I love all your videos! Thank you so much.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching XX
That was so wholesome.... thank you!
XX
Your art is so exciting!!
Thank you Linda XX
Hope your weekend was a success Gaynor!
Hello Vanessa, I really enjoyed it, even though the rain all day on Sunday didn't help !! A few paintings have sold and some cards, so I am a very happy bunny XX
Love your tulips. I like he yellow one too, I know you think it needs more, but I like the contrast.
I wonder if you could say where you get your frames from please?
Hello Carol and thank you. The most recent black frames are from Ikea, normally I'm not mad on their quality but these were more expensive and nicely finished. Have a great week X
Hmmm. Car giving trouble so I can’t go shopping, band practice tonight. Do I watch the video or do something useful and save it for tonight. I quite like pink so I’ll save it for later and clean some windows - or not!
.....just how my brain works....XXX
THANK YOU X
Gaynor! Hi from Guatemala!
Here is something that worked for me. Storing, as well as taking to sell at shows. Cheap Joe's Perfect Presentation for flat work.
You get backerboard , mat, and sleeve to protect it all...acid free! Maybe something like this is available to you in your country?
Sounds perfect ! Thank you XX
The Secret Lives of Colour... Kassia St. Clair😊...Ann
Have a used copy on order, thank you Ann X
I did a quick scan of comments and could not find where you may have mentioned what kind of giant paper you are using? You have inspired me to set up my easel and use it for paper, but I definitely need bigger paper than I currently have. :) It's all good though, as I am still having a blast painting. Thank you for all you so generously share with us.
A1 paper is snowdon 300gsm, any brand will do the job, just make sure it is 300gsm or more X
@@gaynorpattle Thank you so much! I truly appreciate you helping me out.
Pink and ALL that goes with pink in a modern peachy....style of 2024.
Like that the colors take on a new look each year. .. like fashion does... and hairstyles. Imagine if we all still wore the look of even 5 years ago. This year will mark the year of changing out the historical look I've been in ....staring with hair, then the closet will soon B bare. Can't wait to start sewing a modern look... I think I'll start today. Yea 😅
Study color theory and look at some of the art from the 600 BC on, shows there ain't nuttin' new in the color wheel. And talk about fashion ... history of the arts is in vogue for 2024.
Found a fun artist this week, Robert Joyner... also watching Ian Roberts. Ur substrates R getting so large ... soon U could have panels and compete with Monets panels, won't that B fun.😊 Ann,Florida fan
Have a great week, whatever you decide !! Will take a look at R J and I R X
Hi Gaynor, where do you get your frames from? I’ve been pricing and sourcing frames for my art to sell, the glass alternatives are interesting and I’ve struggled to get away from the ‘purist’ idea of real glass, but it’s really not practical in the post, also same thing with real wood frames, lovely idea but soooo expensive, then I found recycled polystyrene frames that look really good, so why not, got to be better for the planet and more of the value in the art work. This is where seeing other artists online and the products being used is great for broadening my way of thinking, thanks, great channel
Hi Lesley, I am endlessly looking at frames for paperwork....these black ones are from Ikea....I don't usually like their quality but very pleased with these ! Thank you for watching and commenting X
You should write a book. 👍
And he’s gone! What’s the first things I notice? Your plants on the table. Mother in laws tongue (snake plant to you) and the variegated hen and chicken (perhaps you call it spider plant) both of which grow wild in my garden. The hen and chicken are quite thick and have cascaded down an ugly wall. Now to watch the video!
What a name for a painting....Hen & Chicken XX
@@gaynorpattleI hope yours makes babies. They send out a long shoot and there’s a mini plant at the end. When it hits the ground it takes root quickly. So I cut them off as it would soon get out of hand. Fabulous video today, so inspiring. As to pink, Amsterdam have a beautiful Venetian Rose and on their website they give the pigments used: PW6 titanium white, PR112 napthol red medium and PY42 yellow ochre. They don’t give quantities but it was an easy mix and makes a very pretty salmon
Plexi glass
THAT"S THE STUFF XXX
Hi Gaynor what is your preferred fixative ? Apologies if youvve previously mentioned . Always love " Thursday Gaynor fix" no pun intended!! ❤
Hello Angie....Daler Rowney Perfix Colourless Fixative....at the moment ! Most brands are good though. X
Why not paint the hyacinths right into that picrure of the beautiful chalkow lady? Just an idea that came into my mind seeing them close together...
Nice idea X
Try a Degas ballerina pink
Will do XX
Just wondering if you varnish your acrylic paintings on paper...(I am enjoying your channel)
Hello Jeanine, Sometimes I put matte or gloss medium over X
OLÁ! Acabei de me inscrever no seu canal. Amei as suas obras e o seu jeito de ser! Você poderia falar mais um pouco sobre o tipo de molduras que você usa e como você faz para embalar, por gentileza? E qual a gramatura de papel que você usa para pintar? Gosto muito de colagens, texturas visuais e gelli print. Mas sinto que ao usar essas técnicas na tela de algodão que tem o fundo atrás da tela, não fica legal pois não tem a sustentação. Por isso já percebi que a minha forma de fazer arte, deve ser no papel e no papel me solto mais, sou mais livre e lembro do meu tempo de criança.
Hola, muchas gracias por mirar y tomarse el tiempo para comentar. XX
Hello!, why don’t you try magenta or permanent Rose for your pink,I paint in oils but I’m sure acrylic have them too. Take care and greeting from MEXICO.
In acrylic they have a blue undertone but thank you for the suggestion XX
Gaynor, could you tell me what size those papers are? Is it watercolor paper? It doesn't look very textured, perhaps hot press?
Hello Leslie, it is 300gsm cartridge paper, I use any good brand and it works like a dream X
@@gaynorpattle Thank you!
what paper you use?
Snowdon 300 gsm
@@gaynorpattle thank you Love your work
Thank You X
Way past my bed time. Please stay away from the mod-podge its not stable and will reactivate with heat and humidity. Avoid that. Use liquitex mat gel medium in your work. This is recommended by my teacher a professional artist in collage. Look her up you would like her. Elizabeth StHilaire.
Thank you Susan, I will take a look XX
