Ty for beginner tutorial. I’m sure it will help people like me. ❤️

I love your techniques, i would like to ask how you get the General chalk pencil off, especially on canvas and rocks. I have found round pencils of soapstones. They can sharpen in a pencil sharpener, fit in a protractor and last forever. A damp Q-tip or a kneaded eraser works much better. The lines literally melt off. Hope you don’t mind the tip? You have inspired me to no end. Thanks!
Hello
Can I set the primary color in the background to a color other than black?
👍❤️❤️
Hi, I am wondering if you could help me answer this question...I am using a white background for my next mandala and I can't seem to find a washable darker colored tool/pencil to draw my grid, I am looking for something with a fine tip...do you have any suggestions and possibly a brand you would suggest? I have been looking everywhere and can't seem to find anyone talking about this. Thanks for your time and help 🙂
How do these stand up outside? Do they fade or what?
If you happen to mess up, is it possible to peel off after drying ?
How does it shine?? What colour do u use?? Please tell
And pretty
Did you put anything on the qtip to remove the paint? I didn’t hear that part. I used metallic paint and it kinda smudged 😬
How often do you wipe your tool off , I’m finding that if I don’t wipe it each time the dots are getting bigger than the one before.
Hey! The mandala looked amazing. You make it look so easy. Could you please tell how to make those plaster rocks at home? The place where I live, they don’t really have natural stones and there’s literally no way for me to order. I’m broke 😢
I don’t make mine, I buy them from TheRockShopCo on Etsy!
Happy Dotting Company is on TH-cam. She has videos showing you how to make rocks.
On Amazon she sells the molds and supplies for rock making.
when dotting if there are different brands of paint you like can you use them in the same design you are doing? like the stone you are now? like if you needed a colour one brand didnt have
Of course! You can use whatever you’d like ☺️
Beginner beginner here. Wouldn’t those paint pots with covers be better so paint doesn’t dry as your working because the paint is in smaller area? Probably have to add more frequently. Thoughts?
I only use the big paint pots for larger projects. This is so small that it goes quickly for me and therefore doesn’t need pots. You can if you want!
Do you varnish your ornaments with triple thick also
I am not sure what you mean by ornaments? Like Christmas ornaments? I have never painted any.
i use deco art but to me the gold is really runny. some colours u use cant get no more
You can add a little bit of gel medium to thicken up runny paint! I like Liquitex brand ♥️
Your extra large 12 inch stencil is sold out on your Etsy shop. How can I buy one?
You will have to wait for the re-stock :)
