    I am just watching this and don't know if anybody already said this: you say with the washi tape if you would have worked on the other page you could have just slid it in. But you still can do that, just turn the washi tape around to the non sticky side, slide it in and then fold it over the page you want to protect. I hope this makes sense!

    Exactly what I needed to really grasp what I always saw you doing on the Kerby pages! The repetition you feared was perfect to really drill into the technique. I find myself repeating it as a mantra. Thank you so much, Karen!

    Hi there Karen, I'm new to your channel and so enjoying your tutorials. Your colouring is amazing. Thank you for this tutorial, I bought these crayons a few years ago, used them once then left them on the shelf. I'm going to give them a go after watching your video, 💖

    Thank you so very much for this tutorial! You have no idea how happy I am to have this knowledge of how to get this look with Neocolor II!
    My husband bought me the 84 set for Christmas and I had watched another tutorial for how to do a similar background look to yours but when I tried to do it, I ended up ruining my picture! 😢
    I’ve not picked the Neocolor II’s up since then but have been feeling guilty not using them since I know how expensive they are!
    After watching your tutorial, I feel more confident in attempting to try a background again!
    Thank you for being so detailed in your demonstration and really explaining things! ❤❤

    I was messing around with my Neocolor II crayons and discovered that they are erasable before and after they have been activated. I was erasing some pencil guidelines and the color came off with the pencil. I couldn't believe it. Warm wishes from Minnesota! ❤️❤️❤️ May your pencils always be sharp and your colors never bleed.

    Thanks so much for explaining it very well, showing every aspect and the repeating helps! 🥰.
    Curiosity question…whenever I see people using the water brushes, there always seems to be a lot of dabbing on a cloth or paper towel to absorb extra water. Wouldn’t it be easier to use a paint brush and cup of water for more control? Maybe I’m missing something, but would love to hear your thoughts on why you (or most people) don’t use normal brush and water instead 🤔. Thank you!

    • @MyColourfulCountryLife
      @MyColourfulCountryLife  5 місяців тому +2

      So when I'm dabbing on the cloth it's to remove the colour most of the time so I don't bring the dark into the light or vice versa. If using a paint brush and water you would be cleaning the colour off the brush in your water and then have to dab the water off onto a cloth, so it kind of skips a step. Hope that helps 😊

    I love watching your videos and have learnt much from you. There’s a book out called Fantasy Fairy Homes Grayscale. It’s published by I S publishing and is full of beautiful mushrooms and fairy homes. It’s a bit daunting and I don’t know where to start. I was wondering if you would be interested in getting that book (if you don’t already have it) and colouring some pages in there. The front of the book is very dark with bright blue background and a fantastic tree house. I thought that you would bring it to life. Thank you for your beautiful inspiration. 😊
    I have prisma pencils, poly chromos and acrylic paints.
