    Lindsay, I just have to tell you that you are such an incredible person and you are so inspirational to sooo many people. When it comes to art, the knowledge and wisdom you have is unmatched and the fact that you use it to teach us is so amazing. I wish you could see yourself through the eyes of the people that look up to you. Please don't ever lose the humility and compassion that you have in your heart for your art and for your students because even though you can't see us you are still teaching us. So thank you very much for just being you. I am so excited for this video!

I don't purchase any art tools without first consulting Lindsay's reviews. She has never steered me wrong! Her tutorials are inspiring and fun. She makes me run to fetch my paints and I can't think of a better compliment. Thanks and Bless

    Hullo Lindsay, I get just excited to watch you paint! I often fall to the "one more thing" and overwork a painting! I envy your ability to just stop! I have even tried to work with soft pastels and go with a more impressionistic look and feel to my work, still need to work on the stopping bit! It is a bit more noticeable when you can no longer get the pastel to stick to the paper, but by then, oops! to late! I am reminded of a Studio Ghibli movie whenever I see the Gansai paints! I have done a few paintings from stills of Studio Ghibli films and we re-watched Howl's Moving Castle again last weekend! I am thinking of doing another and I just do not know how so many Japanese artist start out with the Gansai paints! but they do! I guess we are just a bit spoiled in the west with our transparent single pigment paints! Thanks again for showing everyone how to create wonderful cups for an afternoon of painting fun! Simply Lovely!

    You may be interested to see a few of thede videos- I recently found a channel called Kaiteki Art, she's a Japanese lady who does traditional Japanese art along with Western Art. She uses Gambi paints a lot in her videos, along with various other paints, inks and other mediums. She's also big into ink drawing...man those inks are gorgeous too but I can't afford to take that up lol. I found her channel at first when searching for additional artists who use the Gambi paints (I learned of them through your videos).

    Oh and Thank you Lindsay for showing using the meeden cotton paper. I was wondering if it was similar to the Baohong. For the price I would speculate it is the student quality equivalent. I happen to really like Baohong artist quality and the student quality isn't bad either except for better lifting and masking fluid removal the sizing on the artist quality is better. Thanks again.🎉

    I'll obviously test it out myself, but I am curious if you've tried/had success with this? I'm going to do a mixed media piece where I'm considering using a bit of "gold foil flakes", like the stuff that comes in a jar, and you add a bit of glue and then glue the flakes down? In particular: have you used something like that on cold press wc paper?
    I'm concerned that because it's opaque it might remove some of the shapes (I'll be doing it in very small areas, but still), but was also wondering if, perhaps, the bumps in the paper might make the glue (will be using a glue pen) not perfect, so I'd get a bit of texture (and underlying colour) when the flakes doesn't stick to everything.
    (also, I just got Schminke's mars brown, cobalt violet hue and two of their supergranulating colours, and I'm sooo pleased. Can't wait to use them!)

I had gotten away from watercoloring and mixed media art lately, but when this popped up in my notifications I thought I’d check it out! But was wondering about your sketches of the cups, I’m 68 and don’t have the gift of drawing. So that’s why I asked you if you had sketches. But it appears you ignored my question. I don’t know why, because all you needed to tell me was yes or no. It wouldn’t have hurt my feelings if you had said no, but you not answering at all did 😢

    Aren't the Gansai paints formulated for rice paper? When I was researching them to find out how they would work best and if I should buy them which I still have not done due to financial strains. I found out in that research that they were designed to be used on rice paper. That alone tells me that they're behaving differently on watercolor paper and whatever other people we are using. I really would like to see how they work on rice paper if that is something that you at some point would and could do for us.
