If you have dedicated palettes for groups of colors, would you show them in a picture or short video? Thank you!

Kathy S

Do you have any tricks for those of us who have 'the shakes' in our hands? I'm still working on the ornament tutorial, and for the life of me, I can not get a pretty circle. I think in 2025, I'm going to do all of your tutorials, turning all of the pictures into circles......😵‍💫😆😵‍💫😆🥰🥰🥰

Anna Bucciarelli

Thank you Kathy! I can definitely relate, especially when I paint first thing in the morning after my double espresso and my hands are just not capable of doing straight lines or proper circles 😆 To be honest, I mostly use my Staedtler compass tool or just random camera lense caps that I have laying around on my table for smaller circles:))) Happy New Year!!!

I really enjoy painting your demos. Thank you for sharing this beautiful wreath! I have a question: I struggle with keeping my watercolor wet. It seems to dry within seconds, but I notice that when you paint, you're able to keep working in the same spot, and it stays wet. I use Arches paper and Daniel Smith paints, and I've tried using ox gall as you suggested in past videos. I'm wondering if the dryness of the area where I paint could be affecting how my watercolor behaves. Any tips?

Anna, thank you so much for sharing your gift, talent, and knowledge with all of us. I have a little bit more to finish on this wreath and think it will be done tomorrow. I have watched both the Youtube post and the Patreon demo so many times. I even read the transcript on the Youtube post to make sure I knew what colors to mix. Here are my thoughts: 1. I was absolutely amazed at how well the cardinals came out. 2. like Ericka, I’m noticing my paper drying out faster than I want it to. I did order the Ox Gall and will let you know what I think. We live in a very humid state (coastal South Carolina), but, we have big ceiling fans going all year round. I do think that is a factor, and it could be for Ericka as well. 3. Again, I’m so pleased with my piece thus far and intend to have it made into our 2025 Christmas card with your permission. 4. And finally, this was much harder than the Fall pumpkins, chestnuts, and crabapples because I couldn’t hear your voice. But… it was good practice for me to trust myself with what I’m learning. While there are mistakes, for the average person they may not see it. Thank you again, you are a gem!

I finished this piece about an hour ago and I’m just as thrilled with this as I was the Pumpkin, Chestnut, & Crabapple piece and here’s why. I trusted myself after taking a lot of time watching, listening, and studying. I was uncertain if I could do it when I realized I couldn’t hear your voice and there were no notes. Did I make mistakes? Plenty! But they are unrecognizable to most expect me. Taking notes after painting 2 pieces now I continue to go forward with lessons learned. Tomorrow I am taking it to a company that does high resolution scanning. I’ll have them put the scan on a thumb drive and then send it off to Shutterfly and have them make our 2025 Christmas cards. It will be interesting to see how they come out. I’m having them frame this piece as well and I’ll hand it during the month of Christmas. Now… I probably shouldn’t say this, but since this is a private space I will. I’m no spring chicken by any means. I’ll be 76 years old soon. All to say, older folks can still find enjoyment in a hobby and do well with it too.
