arteza.com?a_aid=UA-cam_MirandaPitrone arteza.co.uk?a_aid=UA-cam_MirandaPitrone I am so ecstatic that you have chosen to practice my designs. It takes me a great deal of time and effort to make these videos, come up with designs, find great products for you all and sell my own products to try to make ends meet for my family. I humbly request that you do not sell my designs. please feel free to give them away or share the videos. Truly I appreciate.
Thank you
Miranda
I always watch your videos from start to finish and I love that you talk about your process and why you do what you do. I have learned so much from watching your videos. There will always be negative comments, but please continue. You help us become better at our own process by sharing your thoughts and talented with us🤗
I really appreciate you taking the time to encourage me. You're absolutely correct there's always going to be people who are unhappy and you can't please them all. I figure as I explain everything it helps people to understand so I'm going to keep on keeping what I'm doing. Cuz there are people that it's helping. Thank you again for stopping by to say hi
Agreed! I love hearing your creative process. I’m just starting out and it helps a lot. So thank you!!
And that little voice was a sweet addition. She (or he) must be steeped in all this art. Wanting to share in the conversation was wonderful because we need to learn to let the child within ourselves out to create.
Everyone loves this rock, it wasn't to hard either, even tho it looks extravagant. T.Y. Miranda. I appreciate your time.
Very pretty, I love your calming voice. I also like your talking your way through your process.
I'm so glad! It is not for everyone, but I think it really helps people when they are trying to develop their own process and techniques :)
Your voice is very calming - I wake up and drink coffee to your videos.
Your artistry is just beautiful !!!
Thank you !!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to stop in and. Probably some times in the video it is early morning and I'm painting while drinking coffee too. 😉
Love your work from Worcester Massachusetts
I just wanted to add that I enjoy your talking through the process, I learn alot that way.
Haha.. thank you for that encouragement. I hope it helps with the process. Plus I like to feel like I am there painting with each person😉
Great to see someone use the silicone tools, made the purchase based on this video, thank you.
Great to hear!It is my pleasure. As you can see it took me a bit of practice too. BE ENCOURAGED and have fun :)
So glad to see you back. Your farm sounds wonderful. Have a great day
Oh yes! I am sooo glad that you are back with us. I have missed seeing you and your designs. I understand how you feel about the Winter weather returning. I have citrus trees that I keep in the garage in the Winter and bring them out when it warms up. Unfortunately, Spring came and went! The trees had to be dragged back into the garage. But the cold temps make it necessary for me to stay in and that gives me a chance to pour some more moulds and play with mandalas a little. I am hoping that the weather here in SE Virginia gets back to Spring even though I won't have as much time to paint. Stay warm and safe. Enjoy your new orchard!
I just ordered the silicone tools. Can’t wait till they get here. I ordered them to remove my boo boos. You have given me such a wider use of the tools!! Thank you so very much!! You make it look so serene…. That makes me feel better. ❤
Serenity is one of the goals I am striving for with these videos. I'm so glad I could help. Thank you so much for watching
My husband is always on me about my rock painting. So you saved the day with the coffee and painting. I got to show him you and say you see I am not alone. I have yet to make a good mandala I can not get the lines straight or dots the same but I can spend forever watching you.
I’m hooked on mandala painting because of your videos.
Oh no! I hope that's a good thing 😂💞
This was a great tutorial for me. I had gotten the silicone tool a while ago, but wasnt really that sure how to use them. Thanks! Beautiful work you do!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I haven't really used them that much. But they seem to work pretty well. How's it going for you
I just discovered your site today. I am enjoying watching and learning. I am going to buy some supplies and stencils. I am 73 and can no longer do some of the things I used to do. I think dot painting looks fun and manageable😘
I feel there's never an age that we are too far past starting something new. I think it is definitely manageable and budget-friendly and also a most enjoyable time to sit and relax. Let me know if you have any questions I will try to help if I can. My best advice is to make sure you have pains that are water-based acrylics so the consistency will be good for dotting💕☺️
Glad to see you back.
Good to be back for a minute. We had a bunch of snow so it gave me an excuse to not have to work outside. 😂😉
Beautiful work as usual!
Thank you so much 😀
I really enjoyed listening to you talk through your process. I wondered how to use the silicone tools. It was fun seeing all the things you did with them. Thank you for sharing!
I'm sure there are many more ways to use them than what I did here. I really love experimenting dipping everything in paint from screwdrivers to q-tips to dotting tools etc I'm glad you enjoyed this thank you so much for taking the time to encourage me and put a comment here. I hope your painting is going well.
I love the way you talk about what and how you are doing. I am just now trying to create my own designs and this was very helpful.
Awesome! Creating your own designs is so freeing. You're not confined to stencil lines or guidelines or someone else's idea of what it's supposed to look like. It truly is freeing and enjoyable to create. I look forward to seeing your creations!
I really enjoy watching you paint. You’re very calming and you inspire me to get out my supplies and start dotting. Thank you!
Yes go for it! Look forward to seeing your creations! Have a great day and thanks for watching
Loving your videos. Im a new learner here and myself and my 75yr old mother are both enjoying the new art. Shes been doing mandala coloring books for years so the idea of creating her own is great for her therapy.
That sounds wonderful!!!
Very beautiful. Thanks for these videos.
Hi from Florida! I’m new to Mandala art and I thank you for your videos! I am learning so much from you and am excited at the thought of getting better at it!!
Hello!! That is so wonderful. Welcome!!!
I have surely missed you. This is gorgeous.
You are so sweet. It is not easy to keep on here...but I am trying. A brief hiatus and refresher and I will be back :)
Thank you for this information on the silicone tools. I was wondering how to use them.
Beautiful!! Thanks for all the tutorials and instruction for using different tools.
It really is my pleasure. I like to try the new things and new tools that are out. That way we can find something that's comfortable for ourselves.
When I'm walking the dots I get to the end and say 'meh'! as long as it looks even, it really does not matter how many dots you make! :)
Thank you so much Miranda, I love your work, I live in South Africa, and started dotting in January, your tutorials have taught me so much. Am a great granny, walking the dots my favourite.
@@irenerhynes6732 My pleasure. Hello to South Africa! Thanks so much for watching
I totally agree. Just enjoy the painting time
Love the rock. Great colors
I love your videos,not only are the Mandalas beautiful but they are so calming, and the process of creating is calming, which seems to be in short supply these days, thank you💖
Thank you so much! I really do enjoy the process! It is very calming for me to watch others paint as well. But the process is so enjoyable. I'm so glad so many are getting into this. I hope it's a little way I can help put some kindness and calmness into this world
First time seeing your video and I never would have thought that I'd enjoy this so much and I love that you are telling me what to do.. and that's helpful for me step by step like watching you.. I cannot wait to watch more of your videos... I'm off to watch more thanks
Awesome. Welcome! I am so happy you found us here. I appreciate your kind words and encouragement. I feel the step step explanation makes it easier to learn. I hope to hear how it is going for you in the future.💓
@@MirandaPitrone thank you so much I need to figure out what all I need to start like basics.. I do have a bunch of acrylic paint and a few canvas.. is there a video of what I need to pour,get cells ETC.. pretty much i am just asking for the must haves so I can start out.. thanks again 🤩
Another beauty, Miranda. That first round of shwishy swipes with the oval above gave me the feel of tassels. Still tickled to no end seeing my lovlies in your photos. LOL. Great to hear you're loving your new place.
Thanks for showing how to use the silicone tools.
You have a steady hand with the big center dot. I struggle with that. I now use a circle template and a thin black sharpie to clean up wobbly edges on my big circle.
Thank you for your calm inspiring lessons. I just enjoy watching and listening, even when I'm not painting.
what a great idea with the sharpie! Super ingenius
Love ❤ watching you paint….you make it so smooth ! I am in the learning process. Your videos really help…
Thank you 😁 ✌️
Thank you so much for watching! And also your kind words. We are all in the learning process just at various stages. I'm so glad you are finding the videos helpful. Thank you again
Beautiful design and colors...so inspirational ! Good teaching skills !
Many many thanks
You have a knack for teaching this...you are what drew me into this hobby a couple months ago and it is the most relaxing and rewarding hobby I've ever done!
Wow, thank you! I never meant to teach. It just sort of happened :)I am so happy to hear how rewarding it is for you!
This is beautiful and I love watching you paint! I’m inspired now to start dotting
That is so awesome to hear! Let me know if you have any questions. It's very easy to begin with items and stuff that you have even around your own home and then just finding some water based acrylic paints not in the little foil tubes, more fluid in the bigger plastic bottles
I'm a new viewer. I live in Arlington,MA and have started dotting over the past year. You just saved me some money by teaching me how to bend the stylus on my dotting tools. I also didn't know how to use the silicone end of the dotting tool l until you demonstrated it, so thank you thank you thank you! I find I get into a Zen mode while watching you, so thanks for that too. Your work is original and beautiful.
Welcome aboard! I grew up in Western Mass. I am so happy to hear you find these helpful. that is my goal :)
Love this. I’m new to all of this and wasn’t sure how to use those; but now that I’ve watched this, I think I’ll buy a pack and give it a try. 😊
Awesome! It is as with any tool... there is a learning curve and we need to practice more with the new ones, but eventually you will succeed😉💞💞💞💞
Love this, Miranda. Thank you for the video. I'm just starting out and really wanted to know how to use the tools.
Now to find the rocks!
You are so welcome! Congrats on the beginnning of your journey! It is going to be so much fun!!
Beautiful. Thanks so much for demonstrating how to use the silicone tips!
Thanks for watching!
I have learned so much from you! I’ll watch your videos all the way through then paint along with you another time. I love how you show how to use different tools. I’ve just recently started molding stones. I have a big collection of painted stones- not sure what to do with them....give away, put in garden....Enjoy watching you from Northern Calif.
Pretty! I dot along with you! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hi! I’m from bay St. Louis ms( 50 miles east of New Orleans la.) it’s actually very entertaining to watch you paint
Hello MS 👋 Thank you for stopping to say hello. Just wait till you see a blooper reel. 😆
I loved painting with you. Just the creative outlet I needed. I learned some new things about silicone tools. Thank you.
You are so welcome! I am so happy it was helpful. Thank you for watching!
Hello! I am practicing along with you now and using both the silicone tool & ball tip, it does take practice!
I’ve begun teaching some other neighbors too and they are very excited to learn! Thank you for this beautiful one and all your inspiration throughout COVID times!
Thanks for sharing!! It is so awesome you are helping your neighbors...fantastic!!
This is beautiful I have tools similar to those and I must clean them too hard too. One of my silicone tips comes out. I’ve just pushed it back in. Next time it comes out I may put a little glue in there. I haven’t tried to dot with them, but will definitely try it.
Thanks for sharing!! I will try that
💕💕💕very inspiring, you are. Love your work. And your website looks amazing ,, so thorough! Heading over there now.....
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoyed it. Let me know if you have any questions :)

Thank you so much! Good to be back :)
Your voice is so calming, I get mesmerised just watching. Hope I can be as good as you as I've just started dotting.
Thank you so much for stopping to say hello. Welcome aboard. Don't get disheartened just takes a little practice and perseverance and you'll be dotting away in no time.
Love dot art. Your truly an inspiration. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for watching and taking a minute to stop and encourage me I really appreciate it.
I love you talking as you paint. Learned a lot!
I really appreciate you saying that....some people do not feel the same...:) I am glad it helps people in their creating process or to get to sleep :) hahaha
Wow Miranda!! Definitely worth the wait for this awesome stone!! I'm gonna have to get some of that topcoat now!!!
Hi Miranda!! This design is great! I am so happy that I can still access your videos. I love the encouragement that you are always giving to all of us. Hope you are feeling okay and your family is doing fine. Denise

It's very beautiful. Ty for teaching so nicely 👌👌😍😍
Great to see you again, Miranda! How are the kids? This is a beautiful piece, as always, and thanks for the tips... as for me, I prefer hearing you talk through the work!
Wonderful! Yes..I am a talker. haha. The kids are great. Loving the new land! Thank you for asking :)
You are so talented. Thank you for sharing 😊
I absolutely love your tutorials. Your positive attitude and the way you tell others to just have fun and paint really inspires me. I'm a UA-camr ( Jennifer's Sewing and Creativity ) and new to dot painting and I have used you as an example in a few of my videos because your videos and knowledge are so helpful.
Very enjoyable to watch and it's beautiful!
Love it!! Beautiful!! Thank you!!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching :)
Thanks, really enjoyed watching and learning. Off to use my silicone dotters.
Your work is amazing and truly inspiring!
Thank you so much! That is so nice of you to say :)
Your work is amazing.
love another great tutorial, you are a wonderful teacher
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. I'm sorry for the delay I'm not sure why I'm not getting UA-cam notifications but I'm just saying this comment here 6 months later. Quite disappointing for you too I'm sorry. I never intended to become a teacher but I am so elated to see how many people are enjoying this art form now. I hope you have a wonderful day
I love your videos and your kind words. I love that you're using silicone ends, I haven't seen that before.
Thank you so much!
Wow girly so beautiful 😻
Beautiful. Nice systematic tutorial.
Thank you so much. I am glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you I am from Dublin Ireland I love watching and learning from you keep up the positive talk. It is so calming love it
Thank you, I will
Hello!! so happy to see your post this morning...had to wait fir lunch break to watch though🤪. Always enjoy your tutorials. Your videos are how I started learning & have been with you since. Really appreciate you took this one from beginning to end of project. Thank you so much for all you do. Look forward to seeing more💖
Absolutely brilliant ~ love your banter 💗 Im a beginner and Im so looking forward to dotting your pattern here.
Thank you so much for encouraging comments! There are a lot of people who don't enjoy the banter but I usually talk through the process to try to help people understand what I'm thinking about each part that I'm doing. My grandmother used to tell me I could talk to a rock. Apparently it's true. I hope you enjoyed the video and I hope the pattern came out well for you
Stunningly beautiful. Absolutely love listening to your soothing voice and your artwork is amazing
Love watching your videos. I am a beginner Dot Painter. I love watching you to get ideas and how to hold, how much paint, ect...thank you so much.
You are so welcome!It really is a pleasure to be able to do this. I am so happy you are finding it helpful!!
You have such a steady hand and create such beautiful designs!
HI! Thank you for the encouragement and explanation of giving a comment.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for these beautiful videos!
Thank you so much for watching! This is one of my favorites to create.
Great tutorial! Thanks for the chat...your voice is relaxing and your words are very encouraging...sharing your life with us..thanks alot..lotsa love from Jamaica.
Hey Miranda
I’m from Denmark and have been following you for many years. Good to have you back, and thanks for all your lovely and inspering video 👍🏻😁
You are so welcome! And I greatly appreciate that you have stuck with me all these years :)
Thanks for this - I feel inspired to keep trying with the silicone tools 😀
You can do it!
Thank you very much! I love watching your videos - hello from the SE of England 😀
Enjoyed the demo
Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing your talent and showing us how you do your work. It's beautiful.
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy the videos :)
Thank you Miranda, your instruction is great, and you don't talk too much!
Glad it was helpful! haha I appreciate that you do not think I talk to much. I tend to err on the side of more explanation than less :)
Calming and enjoyable…that’s why I’m here watching. Haven’t started yet but. Getting geared up and excited. I’ve decided that 2022 is going to be the year I relearn how to chill out. Enjoying your videos very much. Thank you for ll the tips and demos.
You can do it! I look forward to hearing how it goes for you :)
Love your artwork!
Thank you so much!!
Just love watching
Thank you 💖
Thank you for taking the time to do this video! I enjoyed it from beginning to end! I absolutely love that you share your thought process when creating your videos. So many times when I watch videos that are done just to music, I find myself having questions and wishing there was commentary with the video. I also love how you share your experiences of using different tools, as it gives me an idea of whether it is something I want to try or not. Thanks again!!
I am so happy to hear you enjoyed the whole process 🥰 I have been doing this for years and they are still coming out with new paints new tools ..new people to the 🎨 arts. It makes me happy to see how many people are painting these now! It is a great stress relief
@@MirandaPitrone it is definitely a stress reliever and it’s so satisfying to see the design come together!!
Really love your work just heard of these never heard of th3se before so nice to fi d these
So very pretty. Gonna try this one tomorrow
Wonderful! I hope it went well :)
I'm from MA too! I thank you for these videos!
Beautiful! 🕊
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for the detailed instruction I can't wait to try out your techniques
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. So glad you like the step-by-step instruction. I think it's easier easier for me to just explain what I'm thinking each time I create something and that helps people kind of find their own path for creating designs.
Love your work. Dayton Ohio
Thank you from OHIO :)
I am completely new to this. Thank you! I got a set that had the silicone tools and I had no idea how to use them.
Well now you know at least one way there's probably many more than I did here. I've taken lots of time to dip things in my house from screwdrivers to erasers to q-tips. I just like experimenting and seeing what they all do. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I'm glad you found it helpful
Thank you for your amazing expression with painting mandalas.You’ve help me trust, having fun, making mistake and painting intuitively.
~Maria/Portland, OR.
That is so awesome to hear thank you so much for sharing that with me. I hope it is going well. Please excuse the delay in my response for some reason I wasn't getting notifications from UA-cam for a very long time. I hope you have been able to find your way okay.
Miranda love your work and your calm voice!♥
Awww... thank you so much. You never really know how it sounds to others..lol
Thank you for these videos
It's my pleasure! I'm so glad you're enjoying them
Love these colors! I have been learning by practicing and painting with you! Thank you for being here on UA-cam !
You are so welcome! How is your painting going these days. 3 months in???
@@MirandaPitrone I have been working at it at least 5 hours a week! I have my ups and downs. All in all I'm improving ! People see my art stones now and want one. Really a good feeling!
