This was the sweetest arts and crafts video ever tribute to the sheep. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, darling. Thank you for your warm lovely creativity and your cute authenticity. I love your voice.
I am lying flat with a violent flu infection and have a lot of time to search the Internet for ideas for my hobbies. This is how I came across your Videos. I love your unexcited way of painting and have enjoyed every minute! I enjoyed also listening to you and in the meantime polished my English. With pleasure I leave a thumbs up and a subscription there! Thank you from Germany for three wonderful hours of inspiration! Gabi
Thank you for your talent and calming presence. I am a 70 year old retiredart teacher in the US. I find that I I tap on your videos after binging on political news. You help me relax. I love to draw and paint and you fill the bill!!❤❤
I’m watching this and doing my own paintings. I’m in Feb 5th 2025 and our treasury department of the US has been taken over in a coup by Elon Musk and there are protests in all 50 capitol buildings today in all 50 states. I would have liked to have attended the protests, but I’m 72, so the best I can do is make phone calls to our state representatives and try to calm my mind by watching your doodles and following along. Love that there are birds singing in the background while you are painting the birds! 🫶🏻
I am new here..and wow you are so delightful charming and very pleasant to listen to. Thank you for inviting us in to your space and love for painting❣️
I love all of your long paint-along videos! I watch them through when they are new and then replay them in the background when I am writing...but you really have me at all Animals. ❤
I agree about not copying. I get inspiration from other people but then I put my spin on it. Painting along with you tube artists has helped me because I get a ton of practice as a beginner. I am now at the place where I can do so much more on my own.
I really like what you said about copying inducing stress. I hadn’t ever thought about that before and your comment really hit home. I’m so glad you “didn’t shut up “ as you put it. I, as well as many others I’m sure, needed to hear your insight-this is one of the reasons we follow you! Thank you, Diane, for everything you do for us!❤
Thanks so much for these whimsical characters…watercolour with pen pattern embellishments are so enjoyable…love the dip pen for the hairs on the cats tails..suits there personalities so well..🙂🇨🇦🎄🎄🎄
I've enjoyed your 3 hour videos and it has taken me awhile to get through them enjoying every minute.. but... now this morning over coffee i'm missing you... Hope you had a lovely Holiday! Hugs! deb
I rather appreciate your calm voice and your quite spaces too. It soothes all the other voices in my head calling me to do uninteresting things…like house work 🙃
I've loved watching this Diane,I've not watched it in one go just a few paintings at a time. You made me laugh when you said take an idea and run with it, I'm going to name drop here AHUM! When I met the Queen Camilla , I decided to paint a hedgehog, just a card for a friend , and as we were asked by the organiser if we could take along our hobbies to work on while HRH walked around, I decided to take my card,I also painted a fairy on a toadstool with hedgehog and a few other animals, she went along chatting with everyone when she got to me she said 'Oh I do love your Hedgehog ' which caused a few sniggers around the men on our table and something I now have to live with , Anyway I said 'Do you ? She said yes I know how hard it is to paint woodland creatures. I didn't believe her either but it was lovely of her . While I was talking to the queen someone took a rather nice photograph of us ,I sent it to my brother in law who keeps a copy on his phone, he told me last week that when he's at his favourite hostilery, he often shows people a close up photo of me,while they are wondering why? he panns out and Queen Camilla appears, apparently it's going down a storm in the pub, so when l walked into the pub at Christmas I was asked by a few people what was it like to meet the Queen 😂 Oh the price of fame !!! Happy New Year everyone ☺
Hi Anni, I hope you are okay and you get this message. I’m worried that something has happened as you suddenly stopped commenting - are you okay? Would love to hear from you, sending you love, Diane xxx
Diane I want to wish you a Happy new year that God will bless you and you will know How much he loves you. And how much we enjoy your art and like a beginner as I am , love how you show how to paint and explain how to do it. USA ❤
I tried the quirky bird today. First a practice one and then one in my painting journel. It turned out so pretty! Thank you, you are a wonderful teaching and you are very calming to watch. I've been trying a number of your birds, I've done the cute bird family and three round birds, and three cats! My family is very impressed. I'm 67 and I just started. Your designs are so cute!
Dear Diane, it has been awhile since I sent appreciation for you . I love your content (except when you are hard on yourself😉) but it’s you and your voice and stories which are so comforting while I art alone all day. I imagine that your voice is the comforting mother I wish I had experienced and my usually unsettled nervous system calms right down. Do you realize how special you are? I hope you do and that someone close to you is telling you what a wonderful difference you make in the world. Blessings from the Kansas prairie.❤️
Hi “art tulip” and thanks so much for your kind words ! I’m so glad you enjoyed this video and that you find them comforting. I also didn’t have a mother to comfort me when I was young so I suppose that’s one reason why I tend to be hard on myself - I expect criticism not approval! So it’s great to have guys like you reassuring me that what I do is helpful - thank you so much and sending you love and blessings from the wilds of Brittany! Xxx
This very generous Diane! Thank you. I enjoy these long form videos. I sometimes paint along, other times I watch them while I am doing something else. Ofyen I need to stop and get painting along as well. Hope you and your family are having a peaceful Christmas 🎄 holiday!
The Tiller Girls !!! 🎉🥳. Fabulous. Sunday Night at the London Palladium ! That’s a blast from the past, indeed 🤗 I was about to type this to you saying my parents let me stay up late to watch that on a Sunday evening…..and you said the words !! I thought it was so grown up being allowed to watch tv at that time of the evening. 🥳😂 It was quite eery when you said the words that I was typing ….and that often happens …but I guess we are a similar age, so no doubt we will have memories of the same era .
Hi Sheila, thanks so much for you message, that’s so funny! I loved Beat the Clock (our tastes were very simple weren’t they!) and I think it was on at about ten to nine and I was allowed to watch that before being packed off to bed. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year !
Made the first three and had trouble deciding which one to give my daughter in law for a birthday card. Settled on the first one…whimsical bird. I think that should will love it
You just said not to copy, but that's why I watch your videos. I just started painting after raising 6 kids and working. Painting with you is giving me such joy and the skills to do my own, so Thank You ❤❤❤
I learned to paint the birds and cats watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your fun and lovely work. I adore your work. Oh, I also enjoy hearing the different animals.
@@DianeAntoneStudio Спасибо! И Вас поздравляю с наступающим Новым годом и Рождеством! Побольше Вам Удачи, Любви и Творческого Вдохновения в новом году!!!!❄⛄❄⛄❄⛄❄❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I painted this whimsical bird for a little girl I’m trying to encourage. I feel sure she will really like it! She loves art and music which makes me hope we can be friends!
Super painting session. Really enjoyed the tip about using tracing paper for eye placement. You always have such great lessons along with calming painting. I’m still watching the rest. Have a Happy Easter, or Mother’s Day - whichever is coming up for you.
I love your art and I also live on a farm, though it was my rootiy crowing for a second! 🤣 I love hearing your story’s about the farm. I know the winter being hard, it so much work but I also feel so sorry for the animals being cooped up. But they manage and do just fine. It’s better than them freezing and being wet.
thankyou so much - loved this video and thankyou thankyou so much for not playing loud distracting music I always end up turning it off so again thankyou - couldnt paint today but will be replaying and painting tomorrow x - Lynne Australia
Hi Lynne, and thanks so much for your kind comment! It’s always difficult to know what to do regarding the music, but we have learnt over the years that people prefer it without, in general. Although for the latest long video that we just put up we decided to go for a mixture, and of all 10 projects about half have got some quiet music in the background! if we make it quiet enough I think it often can be tolerated even by those of us who are sensitive to it. Personally I don’t like listening to other peoples videos when they have music so I totally understand your feelings! Hope you enjoy watching this one again later and painting something along with it. These long videos have turned out to be a real favourite amongst many people. Sending your best wishes, with love from Diane XXX
Coxcomb or comb is the name for those top parts of the head …and the Wattle is the name for fleshy bits that hang underneath the chin. 🤗🤗 I always see to have a block with that word too….so just it looked it up . Love these, Diane ! Thank you 🤩🤩💕💕
You are so welcome! Words are funny. Comb (in respect of a chicken) is one that eludes me, as is wattle. But I think I’ve got to grips with it finally!
Thank you soo much for this Diane. Im recovering from hysterectomy op had last week so im going to enjoy watching this and a lot of your older videos when im recovering. I hooe that you and your family have a lovely Christmas. X
Thank you! I can't wait to attempt these. I have not been in the mood lately and know these will be easy enough for me not to become frustrated or seek perfection. Happy Holidays!
How do you sharpen your pencils? Love your mixed media approach. Sitting here watching with my pups in my lap. They hear sounds and perk up! Hilarious. Thank you for this relaxing demonstration. Marilyn from Pensacola.
It was so terrifying reading in the college class intro that no copying is allowed. What! I have no ideas at all, and there is nothing new under the sun. Since I started watching you, it has become much easier not to copy. Relaxing into beyond the beginning of your picture gets me discovering my direction.
What white pen are you using? I have scores of white pens, none of which I like. I also have sheep and chickens. After an exhausting lambing season I'm lounging around with a chai watching this. You've inspired me to start painting them a little differently. I'm excited to see where this goes.
Hi there, thanks so much for your comment! Lovely to hear from you as a fellow sheep parent! Nothing more exciting than having lambs - we really enjoyed our (exhausting) lambing seasons but we don’t have a ram any more so no more of that going on for now! I haven’t found a satisfactory white pen. They all give up after a while. The Posca I used today isn’t bad, but the line is a little too thick for what I need. It’s a Uni Posca PC 1-MR .7mm - I also use Uniball and Pentel - I think they are all roughly the same. They don’t work well for long on cold pressed paper, they don’t like going over paint unless it’s absolutely dry, and their nibs dry out. You have to have a constant supply of them, they just don’t last. I threw out two today in despair! It’s an alternative to use white gouache and a fine brush, but more fiddly. Have fun though, that’s the main thing!
Joyeux noel Diane , je regarde ta longue video par petit bout a cause de mes yeux qui me font mal devant l ecran , j en suis a la tortue bleu , je l aime bien , j en ai jamais encore vue en bleu , nous ici il y a les tortues d hermann , il y en a dans le jardin , l hiver on les voit pas car elles s enterre , elles sont brun ocre , c est une espece protegee . Est ce que tu t es coupee le pouce ? J aime bien ton travail , tu as vraiment du talent ! Bises a bientot mon amie . P.S. as tu vu ma reponse l autre jour ?
Happy New Year Diane,it's been quite a sad time for me, my best art buddy has gone to live in Australia,they are about to stop you bringing your elderly parents over to Oz now so as she is 80 going on 25 she has gone kicking and screaming before she had to pay, she didn't want to go but her worried daughter insisted , she's not my friend now as she spends her time sending me pictures of her in the pool,sea,restaurants ,pool pool you get the picture,my other art buddy has gone to live in Spain and sends similar photos , my Indian FB friend who was hilariously funny,made me laugh all through my cancer journey ,I thought the world of him,has suddenly died ? It was such a shock, it just reminded me life is precious don't waste it,if you want to do something ,learn something ,do it ,love and laugh ,sorry to be a dolly downer. I met the tiller girls, my uncle in London was famous for his parties and they always came,straight from the London Paldium, they were huge ,their legs went on forever and lovely beautiful ladies , they loved my Bham accent so spent half the time talking to me, I just got a crick in my neck looking up. Your bird reminded me of a boy I went out with years ago,now thats another story 😍 ☺
I’m so sorry to hear that you lost a good friend suddenly - that’s an awful shock and please don’t think you are a dolly downer, friends are there to take the downs along with the ups and they are only too rare. Some people only ever want to have a laugh never mind what’s going on in others’ lives. That’s a lot of loss for you to deal with and you are right to feel it. I know you are strong and you’ll pick yourself up but it’s ok to be sad for a while. I remember when my mother suddenly died when I was 17 and I cried a lot and people started to tell me to get over it and I found that very insensitive - how could I get over it ? I’m looking forward to you sharing your lovely stories in the new year, I always enjoy them, your sense of humour is great! Wishing you a better 2024 with good health and good friends, love Diane xxxxx
@@DianeAntoneStudio Thats so kind of you Diane, sorry about your mum how awful for you and you were so young , Iv plenty of rubbish to tell you in the New Year no doubt , Im sure your people on here are sick to death of me haha lots of love xxx

I prefer video without music. You have a soothing voice and your tone is calm & relaxing. Wonderful video/tutorial. Thank you very much.
You are so welcome!
I just heard your rooster! I love that, and also the cats and dogs. I find it relaxing, like I am in another place.

Thoroughly enjoy all of your painting tutorials, you’re very gifted, you’re a treasure here on UA-cam 🤍🤍🤍🙏🏼🕊️🕊️🤍
Thank you for the “NO music”. It’s much easier to hear you.
Good to know!

Yes, those were the days!
I believe it's called their comb
Comb on top, wattle, under beak, and let's not forget the earlobes!.

Happy New Year Diane,it's been quite a sad time for me, my best art buddy has gone to live in Australia,they are about to stop you bringing your elderly parents over to Oz now so as she is 80 going on 25 she has gone kicking and screaming before she had to pay, she didn't want to go but her worried daughter insisted , she's not my friend now as she spends her time sending me pictures of her in the pool,sea,restaurants ,pool pool you get the picture,my other art buddy has gone to live in Spain and sends similar photos , my Indian FB friend who was hilariously funny,made me laugh all through my cancer journey ,I thought the world of him,has suddenly died ? It was such a shock, it just reminded me life is precious don't waste it,if you want to do something ,learn something ,do it ,love and laugh ,sorry to be a dolly downer. I met the tiller girls, my uncle in London was famous for his parties and they always came,straight from the London Paldium, they were huge ,their legs went on forever and lovely beautiful ladies , they loved my Bham accent so spent half the time talking to me, I just got a crick in my neck looking up. Your bird reminded me of a boy I went out with years ago,now thats another story 😍 ☺
I’m so sorry to hear that you lost a good friend suddenly - that’s an awful shock and please don’t think you are a dolly downer, friends are there to take the downs along with the ups and they are only too rare. Some people only ever want to have a laugh never mind what’s going on in others’ lives. That’s a lot of loss for you to deal with and you are right to feel it. I know you are strong and you’ll pick yourself up but it’s ok to be sad for a while. I remember when my mother suddenly died when I was 17 and I cried a lot and people started to tell me to get over it and I found that very insensitive - how could I get over it ? I’m looking forward to you sharing your lovely stories in the new year, I always enjoy them, your sense of humour is great! Wishing you a better 2024 with good health and good friends, love Diane xxxxx
