Hi Louise. A big thank you to you. I just started watercolour this year and I love your tutorials. I have fallen in love with painting and it has given me so much joy.

Hi Louise. Thank you for your lovely Christmas message and news, and for the many, many paintings you have guided me into completion. Because of you, each of my children and grandchildren will receive a watercolor painting for their birthdays in 2022! I continue to learn and improve because of your tutorials. We are having a quiet Christmas in Oregon...3 separate visits from grandchildren and their partners, for brunch or dinner. We are expecting a lot of snow and will likely be snowed in for a couple of weeks. So it should be a quiet, pretty, peaceful Christmas. Congratulations on being a grandmother (I LOVE it!!!), on the health of your family, and enjoy the snorkeling My husband and I have spent many hours exploring the beautiful life underwater. Look forward to your paintings in the new year!

Lydia Frazier Bosley

What a lovely Christmas video, Louise, thanks for putting the time into that for us all - I loved the retrospective of tutorials, many of which I still look forward to doing. Your sweet personality and amazing talents are treasured by your students and the community you have created enriches each of us. All the best to you and your family for lovely holidays and a great snorkeling and trekking adventure in Cairns. Looking forward to photos/videos of you with the birds! 💜💛💚 Hugs!

Barb Couilliard

Thank you Louise. You are a wonderful teacher and I look forward to another year of your tutorials. Happy holidays to you and your family.

Hi Louise, I am new to Patreon and totally enjoying the videos I have done. I don't know which one to do next because there are so many I want to paint. Thank you for your Christmas card video and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. I was so happy to hear you are going to add the Pelican video in January. I have a friend who loves pelicans and I would love to paint one for him. I'm also a bird lover and look forward to more bird videos from your upcoming trip. Thank you again for your beautiful paintings and videos and your wonderful teaching abilities. Take care and bye for now.......

Thank you so very much for sharing your skill and marvelous talent. I had admired your skill for awhile and am delighted to have become a member very recently. I discovered that besides your talent and wonderful teaching skill, you are a wonderfully warm, witty, charming and gracious person sharing your most personal aspects of your life and family which we all connect to one way or another. I am looking forward to my water colour journey with you and juxtapose this new medium for me with my colour pencil work. Exciting times ahead indeed! I do wish you and your’s a wonderful Christmas and continued, wealth, health and happiness for the new year.

Wendy Kelcey

Thank you Louise! What a wonderful message and video! Enjoy Christmas , especially with your grand baby! Nothing like a baby around to make Christmas extra-special! With the pandemic ramping up here in Ontario Canada, the limit of gatherings is 25 outdoors, and 10 indoors. With 4 children, their spouses and 10 grandchildren we have 20 in the clan! So…we will ALL enjoy Christmas dinner in our son’s large garage and around the fire pit! We’ll all have fun! We always do when we get together! Again, Merry Christmas to you and Dom, and have a wonderful holiday in the new year! Blessings for 2022!

Novella Gouldsborough

Thank you Louise for your lovely Christmas message and video! Your grandson is such a treasure and I’m happy to see him doing so well. I’m looking forward to seeing your new studio take shape and all the new videos you mentioned. My husband and I look forward to Christmas with a small family gathering due to COVID. I hope you’ll share some photos of the birds to help me get through the cold Canadian prairie winter. Have a wonderful time!

Thank you, Louise, for your lovely and warm Christmas message. I feel like you are not only a teacher but a friend, and am so grateful for all you have taught me and for all you do for your Patreon subscribers. It was such a treat to see your grandson so happy and thriving after a difficult start in life. I’m sure you are going to have a very happy and special Christmas. We will be spending Christmas with family starting tomorrow and look forward to seeing our great niece’s enthusiasm for everything. The new projects for 2022 look wonderful and varied. Very exciting. Happy New Year from rainy California!

Joy Wright

Thank you Louise, what a beautiful Christmas message. I can't thank you enough for your fabulous tutorials - they have helped me develop so much as an artist and got me through two pretty horrible years. Thank you also for sharing so much of your life with us. Cant wait to see the new studio. I have three weeks leave where I intend to paint everyday, I have so much to try. Sydney is a sea of covid so we will stay put. I can't wait for your lessons next year. Best wishes for Christmas and 2022 and enjoy your well deserved break

Carolyn Palmer

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family, from Whittier, California! What a sweet baby! Aren’t grandchildren the best? We will be staying close to home this year for Christmas. It’s a good thing my husband and I still enjoy each other’s company! Once again I can’t thank you enough for all I have learned from you, and for all the amazing projects I’ve completed. I have painted all of your roses, and many other flowers, and frogs and birds and much more and I’m always amazed at the results. Watercolor has helped me stay sane during the pandemic and it’s helping me develop patience - a quality I have always struggled with. I am so thankful for your tutorials, your knowledge, your gentle personality and your sense of humor. I have shown all my friends the beginning of the Christmas dachshund tutorial (we are dachshund lovers) and I still laugh every time I watch it. Enjoy your time with your family. The bird sanctuary looks amazing. I can’t wait to see which birds will end up being projects to paint. Take good care!

Red Scott

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Louise. GOD bless us all and everyone. :) Red

Cathy Bowden

Merry Christmas to you and your family. I love your work and have really enjoyed the tutorials. They are easy to follow even if I have to stop and start to keep up :).

Thank you so much, Louise! I loved your message and was very touched by it. You're an amazing artist whom I greatly admire, but you are even more so an amazing person. I'm so glad you're doing more water tutorials! I've been wanting to learn how to paint realistic water for a long time.

Elizabeth R Gambaccini

You are so appreciated with all the efforts you put into teaching us! You are my very favorite teacher-Patreon, Skillshare, and Teachablesp? . I've done my best work following your patient instructions. Thank YOU!

Trudy Keyser

Thank you so very much Louise for the past year, you have been a great inspiration to me. You are not only a talented lady and instructor, but you are just the most humble and loveliest of ladies. I hope you have a wonderfully blessed New Year. May you and yours enjoy a happy and healthy 2022

Patricia Rapisarda

Hi Louise. I hope you had a very merry blessed holiday and that you have a wonderful New Year and holiday. That was a lovely thank you. I wanted to let you know,I’ve been a patron for over a year I believe. I very rarely comment on social media because there is so much negativity. I wanted to let you know that I’m a middle age self taught artist who was lucky enough to find you on skill share. You have taught me so much and in a relaxed, friendly way. If I’m working on my own and am struggling with a technique I look up your Patreon list and sure enough you have a tutorial to help inform what I’m trying to learn. This time it was water. I have a beautiful sunset pic on the beach of my young grand daughter and a friend in silhouette I’ve painted 7 times and just couldn’t get the water right. This boat tutorial fit the bill and I loved doing it! Please continue to inspire us with your amazing talent and warm bubbly personality. I’m excited for your new studio! I’m so happy your husband is ok. All the best to you and your family in the new year. May God bless all of you with peace and good health. Your grandson is adorable. Best regards , Pat.

Linda

Hope you and Dom and your family had a lovely Christmas, Louise. And all the best for 2022🎇. I am looking forward to a big learning curve this year. As I write I am looking at your tutorials😊. Your teaching style is amazing and I have learnt so much (from zero knowledge) so thank you so, so much. Cheers, Linda👏🌺

Eve Eichner

Happy New Year! Blessings to you and Dom in the year ahead.

Siddharth Singh

A very happy 2022 to you and your family Louise. You are the reason i got stuck in the watercolour world. Love you to bits 🙂💕💕🤗

Alana

Hello Louise ,

Alana

I’ve just signed up for Patreon today. I’m early intermediate level and can’t wait to get started. A question: now you’re building a studio will you host any live weekend retreats? I’m a Sydneysider and would perhaps love to do an escape intensive for a couple of days

Alana

Louise De Masi

Hi Alana, Welcome again! I will let everyone know here on Patreon if I decide to do any workshops when I get it finished. Thanks 💕
