Ahh! This was so lovely. I woke up early and having my cup of tea at 5.30 am I’d save this to watch and I wasn’t disappointed - what a lovely relaxing and informative journey you took us on. This brought back a lot of childhood memories too as there are many links for me and the Mayflower as a recurring theme. My dad was doing his national service in Harwich when he’d travelled to London and met my mum. Within 6 months they were married and had emigrated to Canada for a better life, and we ended up in New England, Cape Cod. I remember it so well. Our travels eventually brought us back to Europe and I came full circle when my work brought me back to Harwich a few times a week. To see where my dad had been in his youth and where the Mayflower had begun its journey to the New World is such a strange thing. It was lovely to see another link in the chain of that amazing journey and those incredibly brave people who made it. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us.
I’m glad I could provide a little extra bit of context for the Mayflower. I wish I’d had more time at the museum. It’s definitely someplace I’d like to go back to in the future. 😊
Thank you for showing us what is possible with just a few colours, a waterbrush and a tiny piece of paper. The three little paintings and the filming of your day out are captivating, and always love to see Poppy, what a great little dog 🐶 🤗
Hi I hope u will give me reply . The products u use are really costly in Amazon ❤❤please give any solution by coming up with website were they r a little low please
I really enjoyed your video because I loved tagging along for the experience and because your journey reminded me of the days when I had a one hour train commute. I carried a small sketchbook, a pen and some colored pencils and drew the whole time in both directions. The bumps from the train were just a part of the drawings. During that period, I was drawing at the table at a friend's house when another friend kept bumping the table. My friend admonished the bumper, but I actually didn't consider it a problem because incorporating vibrations was something I was totally used to by then.
Really enjoyed this trip with you and Polly❤ I checked out the Blue Star Palette since I thought it very practical and also cute, but was a bit shocked by the insanely high price of almost $700,-, there's even another one with only 9 colour wells for over $1300,- WOW😮 😢
@@LeslieStroz I thought I checked their Etsy page as well and got the same? Thanks for checking it out. I will keep an eye on it and look in a little while again. Greetings from Spain
Thank you for sharing your river ride. I can see what inspired you and you captured it perfectly! I love miniature paintings (what do you do with them?) You looked like you enjoyed yourself and I enjoyed it with you!
This is the epitome of a perfect day for me. the moors, cold weather, a cozy Inn and sketching. Mind you I’ve only dreamt of this as I sit here in Arizona’s 114 degree days. Two days into experiencing your videos and I can’t stop watching. Last night I couldn’t sleep. I decided to get up and make my own tiny sketchbook. I love bookmaking and have made all sizes including a few minis but I never had a purpose for sketching and watercolor. I used canvas fabric to cover the covers then decided to use my Gelli Plate to add some color to the covers. Before I knew it was 7:00 AM. Time to watch a few more videos while eating breakfast. Thank you for all you share and your gentle, soothing manner and your music choices for you videos.
I love following your channel, I immediately get a calm feeling watching you work. You inspired me to buy the Peg and Awl Scout box. I haven’t used it yet, but I’m excited to use it during my beach trip next weekend. Have you been able to use yours much? I’d love to see some more videos about it.
Yay another vlog even poppy is here!!! and i am really early lucky me!!! My god the scenery is majestic 🤩 would love to visit once!! Man your art is beautiful I love it sooo much!! The architecture there is sooo pretty 😍
This popped up this morning just as I’m looking forward to a day trip to Broadstairs today. I’ve been so inspired by your videos I’m taking my art kit with me and aiming to to paint the beach huts. I’m a true novice but my dear late father was a very talented artist so I’ve taken up this hobby in his honour and I totally understand now why he enjoyed all aspects of his creative talents. In a small way painting connects me with him and it’s very healing in my grief ❤
Thank you for the cruise it was nice and really interesting 😉👍 I love the way you challenge yourself at the end it's always beautiful and the boat was a good one 😉😁💪 I still in love with all yours thin boxes now I want to thrift 😁🤷♀️🤦♀️ Bises
I wanted one for sooo long and once I finally got it I didn’t really like it. It’s adorable, but the palettes are so small and fragile (my daughter broke one of hers). I’d recommend their pocket box instead. It’s a terrific starter box!
I so enjoy going along on your day trips and getting to view things I normally wouldn’t see. I especially enjoyed the Museum and the history of it. And as you say” the icing on the cake “ is watching you paint along the way, Thank you.
Thanks for taking us along! I think watercolour sketches like these are great for practice sessions as well learning to focus on capturing the scene at the moment. I’m always too focused on the sketch and I end up being nit picky about the details that I often forget to enjoy myself while painting.
Your videos are so informative on so many levels! You are a fantastic creator!💕

Enchanting; all of it! You, your paintings, the boat trip, Dartmouth, your friend and Poppy 💙 Glad that I came along - thank you for taking us
I’m glad you could make it. 😊
I love that you have art supplies that you'd imagine Q would give 007. That is a gorgeous tour!
Thank you! Yes, I love my art gadgets. 😊

Thanks! It was so nice to be in the open air splashing about some paint. It was a lot for Poppy though; she slept for 24 hours afterwards! 🐶
@@LeslieStroz cute little dog ❤❤❤😊
@@LeslieStrozI'd do the same if I was in Poppy's place! :D

What a beautiful video. I can tell you have such a sweet friendship and I absolutely loved your tiny paintings
We need to paint Poppy together! :)

Where did you see that? This palette is much less than that. Wow, I just checked their website. Clearly, there is some glitch. I’ll let them know!
It’s listed at £38 on their Etsy page. I think their website has a glitch!

You looked like you enjoyed yourself and I enjoyed it with you!
I’m so glad! I keep all of my tiny paintings. They will be heirlooms for my children. 😊
Thank you for taking us to Dartmouth with you. It was refreshing.
Thanks for coming along! 😊

Oh how exciting!! The weather here has finally warmed up and stopped raining so I’m planning to take mine out soon! 😊
What do you have on your neck that is holding your phone to film?
It’s a lanyard with a magnet that holds my phone. It’s made by a company called Telesin.
Can you show me in more detail how you drew it with a black pencil? It's very nice.❤
I have some other vlogs that discuss the pencil in more depth. 😊
Really nice triptych???
Gorgeous
Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

My god the scenery is majestic 🤩 would love to visit once!! Man your art is beautiful I love it sooo much!!
The architecture there is sooo pretty 😍
Thanks so much! Yes, I love the architecture there too. You can feel the history everywhere you look. 😊
Wonderful! Totnes as from the Griffin and Sabine books by Nick Bantock. Do you know them?
Love the challenge! I wanted to take my kids on a boat tour along the Middle Rhine Valley, I need to bring my paint set too
Yes! You won’t regret it! It was sooo relaxing! 😊

Thanks for coming with! I really enjoyed this box for quick sketches, but you could make your own from a little mint tin! 🤗
@@LeslieStroz yes that exactly that what I do 😁 I have already one for little papers😏😉👍
Hi ! Would you recommend the W&N field box for beginners ?
I wanted one for sooo long and once I finally got it I didn’t really like it. It’s adorable, but the palettes are so small and fragile (my daughter broke one of hers). I’d recommend their pocket box instead. It’s a terrific starter box!
@@LeslieStrozThanks! My daughter wanted one of these but couldn’t decide.And she LOVES your channel ! Keep it up 👍
What an amazing adventure ☺☺
I so enjoy going along on your day trips and getting to view things I normally wouldn’t see. I especially enjoyed the Museum and the history of it. And as you say” the icing on the cake “ is watching you paint along the way, Thank you.
Awww thanks so much! I always love seeing other parts of the world in videos too, so I’m glad I can provide a bit of that for others. 😊
@@LeslieStroz 👍

I would recommend this for anyone feeling like they are in a rut or have artist’s block. 😊
Or have you participated in an artistic work in Turkey?
What a delightful trip, ty 4 sharing with us! 🫶
So enjoyable 🤗👍
Thank you! ☺️
Thank you for bringing us along. What a great day to share with your friend.
It was a lovely memory. 😊
Poppy 😂❤
It was a long day for her, poor baby! 🐶
Have you painted in Turkey?
this was a lovely video!!
Wow.😊 Thanks you for❤ bringing us along😊😂
My pleasure!! 😊
I love that blue star box ❤
Thank you for sharing about your trip. I think my partner and I may have to plan a little weekend trip to Dartmouth before we move out of London!
There is so much to do here in Devon. But yes, that’s definitely a good one! 😊
That seems fun activity when time is limited. Wow I really like the first one so much. 💖🌼
Thank you! It was the least controlled and finished, so maybe that’s the trick! 😊
I love Poppy!,
How do you position your camera to take the video of you painting?
I’ve learned so much from you… unfortunately I can’t afford all the goodies, but in most cases I’ve found ok substitutions
Forgot to say, I just bought my first Go Draw palette, can’t wait to see the difference from the Temu brand. Saving up for the ponchade box
All the goodies aren’t necessary. Sometimes homemade is best. ❤
Love your first tiny sketch 🧡
Thanks! 😊
poppy is the cutest dog ever❤
Awww ❤
Thank you so much for taking us with you and the tricks. 😊
Thank you for your video! It's very interesting. Beautiful sity! Such a little houses.. Look like a toys❤❤
Your puppy so cute ❤❤
Thanks for watching! ☺️
The holster! Oh my, too cute. A lovely video, thank you.
The holster is adorable. 😊
Love watching all you do! Thank you!!❤
My pleasure! 😊
