It’s been a couple years since you made this video, so you may not see this comment. It was such a joy to see you doing “slow“ artwork. We are entering a scary time with AI and I am just happy to continue the tradition of doing “slow” art. Hope you are continuing to go strong.
This is exactly, what I thought
0😊0😊😊⅓😊
I don’t know what I love more from this video honestly your voice, your thoughts, the painting or the music 🎶. Everything here is just beautiful 😍
That's exactly my thoughts
I have been in a creative block because of the boundaries put upon us, and rules and limitations have crept into my psyche, making me feel closed inside and out. I have a feeling that this way of painting will not only relax me, but make me look at creating in a whole new freeing light. This is lovely, and the background music is perfect. As a child I use to ask my mom to make a squiggle on a piece of paper and I'd see what I could make out of it. I remember it being so much fun, and challenging. I am so glad you brought forth this memory that I'd forgotten. I may use it again. Mom is 93 now and to make something beautiful out of something she started would be not only a challenge, but putting a piece of her into my art. Thank you so much.
I feel so at peace after watching your video. Your art is very soothing. Thank you
I'm still fairly new to watercolor and thought I wanted to be a purist. You have changed my mind. Thank you for sharing and your inspiration.
Exactly!
I watch your videos for the beautiful art, the peaceful inspiration and you. Thank you for working through the hard times and being the light for us as well.
I would not have picked those colours... And I would have been a fool for not choosing them. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT! IT IS BEAUTIFUL 😍. So inspiring; thank you CC!😊
I forgot the world for a little while and began to relax in this beautiful process you are sharing. Thank you!
You are communicating with heart relevance! You have helped me A lot with depression, getting inspired and not feeling so alone. Much of what you say is meaningful, memorable and very wise.
I love your statement "... Who am I to argue with gold." That is packed with meaning on many levels!💜
Thank you for all this!!! Namaste🙏
I love your shows they are very creative very soothing and you make me want to just draw and and enjoy the art of painting and paint thank you very much for taking the time to share your talents with us we really appreciate it have a wonderful day.
Thanks so much for the inspirational videos! The way you start your painting is a good way to unblock yourself...fantastic!
That's a lovely piece of art. I enjoyed watching you create. Very relaxing. Thank you.
⭐Wow, I LOVE this painting and all of what you so gently do, invent in colours and share from a place all uniquely your own!!! Beautiful!!! THANK YOU !!!💜
I think this is your best work, I have watch it now 3 times.
Amid a hurried world this is a sanctuary of calm. The music is good for meditation too. Thank you 💓
Cee cee you are sharing your inner thoughts,talents,feelings and creativity. You are so genuine and helpful to so many people. A true artist! Thank you for your honesty.
Watching u over and over again. Your design sense is remarkable! I try so hard to “lighten up”….. what a struggle! Thanks for the continued inspiration!😊
This is a lovely work of art as well as a great plan for removing the block that sometimes restricts us. Many thanks!
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever watched. Thank you.
I could watch you paint all day
I knew this was an essential video to download. Driving my car yesterday, I played only the audio. Just that was a southing tonic, enough to concentrate on your expression of treating one's self well; being kind, going (literally!) with the flow. Thank you.
I am your most recent fan. Your work is a discovery for me. It is so fresh and free. I love it. My favorites doodles are your birds. Thank you for sharing.
I’ve read that anything that you do that is repetitive but requires concentration is a form of meditation. It quiets the mind and reduces anxiety. Doodling, painting, knitting... anything like that! Thank you for continuing with your videos and sharing your thought process, CeeCee! Stay well
Welcome to the 4d 5d 6d 7d new earth dimension. If u keep on going then you will surely experience the next level of consciousness. So well Done
I agree!!!
Beautiful video; process well presented and final product is stunning!🎨❤️
I remember as a kid, we would make big scribbles all over the paper and then color all the spaces in! I forgot until you mentioned it! They can be simple (only 5 or 6 spaces) -- or very complicated - scribble all over page over and over! It is GREAT for any age! I suppose that it would work in Black and white too! Great for bored kids!👏👏👏👏👏👏💗💗💗💗💗
Brilliant, Beautiful, Peaceful, Calming....❤
J'adore! Your style has brought me back to my childhood and my constant doodling! OMG I am almost in tears, its like you have given me permission to continue doodling and see what comes of it...and its ok that I LOVE just blotches of colour...like LOVE....ok now I am in tears...you've opened up something in my soul...merci xo
Aside from your wonderful & creative art expression, I enjoy your soft voice, honesty and that on your channel, you spend most of the time creating & painting. Most other similar sites spend too much talking, either before during or after. You strike the perfect balance and it's much appreciated. Nice music as well! Thank You, Claudia🐝
Wow, thank you!
Like that you talk and teach, nice having a window into your thought process with up and down daily struggles to make art. I'm new to this art form but fast falling in love with it. Thanks for helping me move forward with art and similar life struggles. In a nut shell +++++++ U rock
Freedom tress free great in doling. I enjoyed watching your lovely doodle. It reminds me the way I let go in my own doodling. Love the gold. Nice touch. I need get out my own and paper and just start my own dooling. Thank you.
I love everything about this and your process is so mindful. Thank you for the inspiration and for the relaxing music. Very special.
I used to get a lot of satisfaction and that happy place as a child when I discovered the joy of doodling...thanks for reminding me how beautiful it is...can't wait to get back to it...
I am mesmerized by what you do. I just discovered your artwork tonight. I will be watching many more videos.
I recently started painting with old eyeshadows & no longer need. They make great colors to work with sponges or sponge brushes. Not to mention the little tin holders can be used over again.
Wish you would do a video explalining the watercolor sets you enjoy the most. Some watercolor sets can be pretty expensive. Love the Payne's grey! Thanks!
Hi, this video is just what I needed now, I constantly overthink my drawings, coloring and all. I really like the tips and reflections all through the video. Thank you for sharing.
Joy to you always!🙏⭐You are a true genius, brilliant artist and gently nurturing communicator! 💜
I adore your GOLD, LINES AND DOTS !!!! PLEASE TEACH E!!!
That gold from Kremer... It's sooo luscious!
Another excellent video! Your work is very sensual and that slow mo clip of you mixing the gold paint was orgasmic!
LOL i was wondering if anybody would comment on that clip. so far you are the only one. thank you for that!
Wanted to say 2020 wasn't my worst year the world basically has experienced what I have and so many who have been sick most of their lives. That being said in the times I rediscovered myself love for art again and a job working from home that year.
Basically, working on healing. Your channel I discovered recently I absolutely love your style, genuine nature and personality. I appreciate your insights greatly.
So, thank you.♡
Drawing squiggly lines and then filling them in with doodling is like zentangle. Very relaxing and meditative.
I really loved this! I found myself smiling while watching it. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. I truly appreciate it.
Harmonia...thanks sooo much for there tips...💖greeting from Austria🎨🎉💐👋🏻
artists are always sensitive. You are right. When I have negative thoughts attacking, I tell myself-it is normal reaction because this pandemic is very different, I am not the only one. Even now, it is still challenging for me to open the door and go out. You are very talented, your arts always comforts me. Thank you. And please just keep going. Love your attitude and arts.
thank you so much for your kind words, angel. and i understand about opening the door.... it is quite scary for me too. but we will see this through. wishing you a peaceful and creative week.
creationsceecee thank you!
So much good advice within your videos. Your channel has become my goto place when I am feeling stressed and overwhelmed. It's like therapy just watching you create your beautiful pictures. Thank you so much.
Mine toooooo!!!
Thank you for this- I have been in a terrible slump and appreciate this as an inspiration to get my creative juices flowing again. Stay well and God bless you CeeCee
Thank you so much for inspiring me. I have been blocked since March and today I was able to create a piece following your technique. I wish I could send you a picture. Thanks so much.
Stunningly creative 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I have been watching your videos every now and then, between all the other different types of art mediums videos, and I always seem to come back to yours. I have my own channel, have been working with everything from acrylic pouring to watercolor to resin and woodworking, etc. but am so frustrated with myself and my artistic progress... I think things to death, overcomplicate things, try to work with too many mediums at once... my mind never wants to give me a break! I just tried encaustic this past week, after years of wanting to ty it, and was actually sorely disappointed, which disappointed me terribly. I think I am going to now, inspired by your lovely videos and tutorials, work in just one medium for a while, if I can manage to, and try to become better at being less complicated. Thank you for your lovely videos and words.
Love this video and your wonderful tutorial!
Beautiful! Nice! ILOVE❤ THIS! And I like the soothing music. It goes well with therapeutic doodling.
Dear Catherine, I knew there was a reason I was drawn to you and your art, it's not just what you do, it is also your complete honesty. You have saved many lives, not too much pressure, lol. You will always find a way when you are honest. Thank you my dear for sharing. Sherie Rodrigues from Australia. 😘
your kind comment touched my heart, Sherie. thank you so much and have a beautiful and creative week! big hug all the way from Canada.
@@creationsceecee 🥰🥰🥰🥰
This is beautiful! Very relaxing video. Thank you.
Beautiful work!! I've been inspired!!
Trying to break my slump. 2 days in a row for the first time in a long time! Not much but it's a start. These ideas were super helpful and your art is always delightful to watch unfold!
I just cannot express how much I LOVE this. So much to praise but my biggest love is the colors you chose for the initial application. Well done!
I see a chicken blowing bubbles! I love the way you work, with no particular goal in mind. The art you show us is always beautiful and interesting.
My first video of yours. How did I not find you sooner? I love your art. Great tips as well. Thank you
I loved watching you doodle and paint. So relaxing. Less stress in all our lives and more creativity. The music was awesome. Thanks so much.
I have to remind myself that it is something to do that is there for me to enjoy, a private indulgence, that I may share, or keep the whole bliss secret. My health precludes it so often that this is more true. Knowing this is a good motivation and gives me a build up of inspiration for the next burst. Thank you for being a spark of light fuelling this 🙏
You can really create something stunning out of nothing at all...I was mesmerized. TFS
Ceecee, You have talked about gold so much and I finally found some while visiting Memphis. I want to tell you what I tried, I did a wet on wet wash of gold all over my paper before painting abstract art. It turned out just beautiful! Thank you for sharing your style, I love it!
I bought my watercolor kit a while ago and had no idea how to use it. I discovered you tonight...so happy! Now the fear has gone away and I can tell you tomorrow will be colorfull! Thank you so much for sharing your tips with us, now I must get gold 😂 🤗
I LOVE painting with you and FINALLY put in my order for the Kremer Gold, Bronze and Siver Watercolors. I can't wait until they get here!!! Thank you so much for continuing to post to UA-cam and sharing your talents, your calming way of approaching "painter's block" and sharing your resources with all of us. Going through chemo/radiation 5 days a week can be super stressful and downright scary. You have such a way of speaking to my heart and my muse, that each day I can't wait to come home and paint with you, whether it be an old favorite posting or something fresh and new. You are one of my healing angels!! Thank you CeeCee!!!! Have a wonderful week!!
This really helped write out questions to clarify the overwhelm of possible. Ty.
I like your camera angle so we can see how you are doing your line work ❤️
Some content creators are not paying enough attention to the viewer perspective- happily we are not watching the back of your hand all the way through
I enjoyed your video
How kind of you to reply with such encouragement and compassion. Thank you! I've got the 5 tips now and will keep moving forward. Gee the times we are living today can really mess with your whole being. I wish good things and better days on all of us.
Thank you for your videos. Love your paintings and love to listen to you. I am a beginner. Not even a month in this new journey and loving every single step....thanks to you!
Your videos are absolutely relaxing to watch. You make everything look so effortless. And YES, doodling is FUN!
This was amazing to watch this piece come to life! Thank you for sharing it!!
I absolutely love your creativity. I so enjoy watching you work and can't wait to try some of your suggestions. Thank you so much for sharing
Gorgeous! I always love your colour combinations and the way you're able to turn random-looking splashes of paint into art with your doodles. So creative!
This may be my favorite. Great job! And thanks for the tips.
Thank you for the tips & video 💛
Omg, this is the best video that I have seen before. Is the best technique to wake up my creativity. Thank you so much. I love your art work. 🙏😍🤩❣❣❣❣❣
Thank you! This was so calming and your process was amazing to watch. It’s helped me a lot.
How good is this... watercolor doodle👌👌
I have watched several of your videos. Then I subscribed. Now I have to comment: I do love your videos, I have learnt a lot with them. And you, dear, are an awesome artist; you make look very easy and simple what it is not. Thank you for sharing your art and your knowledge. God bless you abundantly! Much love from Spain 💙🇪🇸
Thank you for these videos. The painting, the open door to creativity, your voice, and the music all help cope with the adverse effects of too much isolation and a world that has become hard to recognize. Thank you, too, for sharing your own approach to this and taking us along for the journey.
Just found you! Been searching for me once again. I’m a watercolorist and love to get caught up in my own lines and colors. BUT had a knee injury. Couldn’t get to my studio. Watching you create in a small area motivated me. Thanks for letting me watch you create.
I am learning so much from you. I understand now how important it is just to enjoy the paints; the colours, the shapes and the way they bleed into each other. You are so creative and I think you are helping me to find my creative self.
Here in The Netherlands we say: SCHITTEREND. That means more than beautiful! I love it 🥰
interesting! thank you for this linguistic lesson. i love languages... it's a passion of mine. have a "schitterend" day!
Idd! Geweldig woord! 😀😀👍 Grtjs
Is that a ‘sh’ or ‘sk’ sound?
@@Deanriley neither of them.. it's the famous 'g' sound, we dutch are famous of .
when you pronounce a sh... it all becomes a different word..
and when you pronounce a sk... it's a dialect... lol...
hope this wil help you!
@@Deanriley
'Ch' in Dutch is like the Scottish 'ch', as in Loch Ness. I'm from Scotland but I live in Belgium, in the north (Flanders), where Dutch is spoken. A main difference between Dutch in Belgium and The Netherlands is the harder guttural sound of the 'ch' in NL. In Belgium it's a softer back of the palate sound. So try pronouncing s-ch !!! Good luck with that! 😁😂
"It isn't always about reinventing the wheel. As long as you get the wheel moving forward, the progress will come." - CeeCee 2020
This is so lovely. It makes me feel peaceful and happy when I look at it. Thank you for the break from stress and worry Cee Cee!
Lovely work effective and free! You rock!!🌟
This is so lovely...right down to the musical accompaniment. Thanks for pushing through the pain to share your talent with us. You are an inspiration.
Thank you for your vulnerability with this video. I struggle with creative flow as well when I get overwhelmed. This was such a beautiful video for me to ponder!
A big thank you, Cee-Cee, from Scotland, where summer is over and winter with its long, dark days are on the horizon. Your video-ed demonstrations and gentle words and manner help one who lives alone to manage and cope with the long 'ground hog' days of isolation and lack of physical contact. In April, hidden away by Covid restrictions, I made the decision to cast inhibitions aside and to start trying to paint. I'm so glad that I did. I have found the mindfulness of your kind of "doodling art" so absorbing and recuperative, particularly when I'm rudderless and feel all at sea. It really helps. And I've discovered that I LOVE golds! ☺️
Be gentle with you. Keep painting. Keep safe.
With love. 😘
You always inspire me to try something new. I love your work. Thanks for sharing it.
That is a beautiful “doodle”😊♥️👍
I'm so very lucky to have come across your video's which are so mind expanding yet calming at the same time. Yes, when you slow down and repeat drawing lines it does calm your inner self, almost like meditating with color.. Thank you so much for your ability to share your inner self which will permeate to all who follow you.
Loved this and was inspired to have a go at this one 🙏🏼
This is stunning, but it's more than that. I was feeling some of the effects of this situation we're in this morning and you reminded me I need to get back to being creative every day! I have some 140# cotton watercolor paper punched out to fit my disc journal and I'm going to go spatter some paint and try to follow your 5 tips. Thanks for your generosity in sharing your talent and your techniques. My talent is more of the wanna be than the real, but it is enough to keep me trying and using the creativity that I have. I do appreciate you and what you are accomplishing!
You have brought me back to water colour...your work is beautiful..
i love this. I've always doodled and then added the watercolor...but I LOVE this approach!!! i'll let the watercolor talk to me for my doodles :)
So enjoy your videos and talent.
You are my happy place! Thanks for your inspiration and the sense of calm that you bring to my day.
Thank you,so peaceful watching this
This is my chill out place. Beautiful art, gentle kind voice, and that music. Who could ask for more. And it has helped me loosen up my style. Thank you so much and stay well. Our turn in S Africa with the virus is still to show it's worst side, it only arriving a good while after other countries, so this lovely work is food for the soul in the long days of trial, take care my dear friend, you are precious among us. Xx
Truly beautiful and soothing.
