Diane, I have so much fun hanging out with you while you're having fun! Your wit and laughter, along with your creativity, are incredibly precious. Thank you for sharing with us. 🥰🥰
Hi Diane, we British are notorious for being animal lovers! It’s very commendable of you to help distressed animals, I was very happy to hear you were able to help the pig, and I’m sure the poor dog will soon benefit from your caring! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️🔥🫵🏼✨✨✨😊 1:19:19 😊 1:19:30
Thank you so much! Yes, it’s true, and the French are deplorable. Utterly deplorable. 20 years of living here hasn’t made me any more accepting of the way they treat animals in the countryside especially. How can a civilised country not have the equivalent of the RSPCA?? The PDSA? The laws against animal abuse we have in the UK for farms and domestic animals? I know it’s not perfect in the UK (puppy farms and dog fights still happen…) but the ignorance here…. Anyhow, the dog lives with me now, he’s at my feet right now, and the pig gets his food each day from me, and so do the neighbours chickens. Sigh. What can you do.
Pam at Paper Outpost was the first channel I watched 2 years ago when I was inspired by Junk journals. She’s not an artist like you, but she goes forth unafraid. Then when I discovered your whimsical artwork, I put it together with her channel and combine the craft with art. At least I try.
I love your description for the reason of these long videos Diane! You just hit the nail on the head with just needing company in the house if alone or relieving stress, settling in with a cup of tea and just feeling cozy. We all need this. Hope to see lots of long videos from you. I love all your musings and ‘ponderings’. Just love you. You’re a comfy cozy snuggly blankie on those down days.
Beautiful Christmas tree ideas!!! I'm so sorry about your blood pressure medicine. I hope you feel better soon! I love to listen to you too and I love thae way you take such good care of all your furry and feathered friends and rescue animals in distress in your neighborhood!!! You are a very kind, talented and entertainging person! Now for the rest of your fantastic video!
The birds have always been my favorite since you were doing the bird a day several months ago.. I was successful the very first time I tried.. That was encouraging.
thank you Diane for your Christmas workshop….So many options for cards, so many inspiration’s to choose….I particularly love your christmas stockings….they were just beautiful, the mice were delightful. as were the decorated stockings……I have to paint those stockings this year for the grandchildren.❤❤❤❤❤ Have a great midweek….🥝🐈⬛🐾🐾🐶🐷🐾🐾💙💙💙
I'm just 2.5 hrs in and I have to say I'm smitten with the meeses😂in the mittens! The little mice are adorable!🐀🐁🐀🐁 I'm making Christmas cards today, so can't tell you how thrilled I was to see your long video! Thank you for keeping me company lovely lady and a big Aloha from Maui🎄🌈🌺🙋♀️
Excellent, so informative, especially the mixing of colours, how to achieve shadows and being able to paint over the lovely washes, in the last video. Thankyou Diane 😀
🌟 Your artistic talent, creativity is inspiring and absolutely Spectacular! Thank you for sharing your wonderful videos! ❤😊 Best wishes sent your way to feel much better real soon! Sorry to hear that you are having health issues. 🙏 My prayers are with you!
Thank you for no music. 😊 I try not to listen to instructional type channels with music because my tinnitus annoys me more. I’m going to come back to this tomorrow. It’s getting late in Australia, work tomorrow. Thank you again 🎉
You’re welcome 😊 and I’m glad to be able to do the music-less videos. When we first started we used music to help us learn, but now I don’t need the backup so much and it’s better I think without music. Sorry to hear you have tinnitus. My husband has it bad too and it makes him quite irritable sometimes - which is understandable !
CHARMING ideas! After making LOTS of cards, I’m near;y brain dead. But here you are with new ideas for us! I think you’d be a super PM! But happy you like the one you got. If I don’t continue to get you, I’ll boycott Utube and pass it along to.everyone I know! I love our daily chats over your kitchen table….and your coffee (with or without paint in it), is great. I’m playing with my meds too!🤪. Please take care of yourself ! xxxoxx❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful work. I like to hear you talk. Teaching me how to paint. Learning about brushes,paint, if I have a block. Also no music in background is wonderful. When I watch you it is a art class only need to hear you.😊
Wonderful! You are so welcome Betty and thank you for being a loyal, committed follower for so long. Merry Christmas to you and yours and a happy new year xxx
Thank you for posting another wonderful video. I have you on my screen while I paint or crochet or make jewelry. I was thrilled when you mentioned The Detectorists. What a wonderful series. The actors, the stories and the beautiful scenery. A lovely hello to Tamsin!
Love spending time watching you paint!!! Learned a few tips along the way!!!! Thank you so much for this compilation!!!! Have a wonderful and Merry Christmas!!!!🎄 Greetings from Florida!
These were all fabulous as always. You never disappoint Ms. Diane. I’m going to do the Christmas 🎄 and the Christmas balls. Oh the sheep are adorable too! I’m painting on 140 # cold press. I have so much to use up before I buy any hot press. I love your holiday paintings best on UA-cam because they are doable. Besides I like to listen to you talk. Your wit is adorable plus you have interesting stories and insights. 😂 Good luck with the awful neighbor!
Hi Sharon and thanks so much for your kind words! We have a slightly better neighbour now, thank goodness and he has a pig in his garage that he lets me feed - honestly, what next, a tiger?
I enjoyed all these paintings very much. Can’t wait to try them. I hope you feel better soon. I have blood pressure issues sometimes and it’s not fun! ❤️🙏🏻
You made me laugh. I feel the same way about good watercolor paper. I cut it into small pieces that I glue unto card stock. It's less expensive to do it that way. Love all your work Diane and listening to you! ❤😂
I just bought the kuretake gold set through your Amazon account. The person you're referring to is Pam from the Paper Outpost. She's a very interesting to watch. She's the reason I got into making Junk Journals. I recently started dabbling in watercolor and then came across your channel and absolutely love you! I love art and only painted with acrylics in the past, but now I love painting with water color. Thank you for your talent and inspiration :)
Thanks so much I’m so glad that you found us and that you like our channel! It’s a wonderful community we have here on UA-cam, covering so many different types of craft! Hope you enjoy exploring the world of watercolor!!
I love The Detectorist, one of my favourite shows. I made your splattered Christmas trees for my family last year, they were very impressed and asked how I did them. Gold and red splatter, one large tree in the centre of the card. I like the first collage trees, I am going to try them. Thank you
I painted the mice in the stockings last year for my daughter in law. It’s such a cute painting! I can’t believe it’s been a whole year. It goes by faster and faster the older I get.
I'm so very sorry to hear about the poor dog, the conflict with the neighbor, and the discomfort that is causing you, Diane!! I had a very similar experience years ago. Animal Control said that the poor dog's 6 foot leash was leagally acceptable and she had water within reach. She was a young black German Shepherd who often knocked over her water dish and barely had any shade during the hottest part of the day, and we had many hot days here in S. California. I used to sneak over to refill the water bowl, but was eventually told to keep out. The poor thing barked all day while they were gone. It was torturous!!! I hope the situation gets resolved in the best way possible for the dog, your well-being, and everyone's peace of mind! Many people should never have dogs or other living beings, including children!!!! Hugs and best wishes to you and your family!!
Yes, fortunately the matter resolved itself eventually as the woman moved to a house where she could let the dog inside. I despair about the level of ignorance there is around the issue of animal care…. And now I’m worrying about the new neighbour’s piglet!
@DianeAntoneStudio Thank you for sharing this hopeful outcome for the dog!!! I think I heard/read something on your channel recently that the pig and some hens were moved into a shelter out of the cold and wet conditions they were in. I hope so for everyone's sake!!!!❤️🎨💐 I'm enjoying the Christmas paint-alongs!!! Thanks for sharing 💖
Can I ask , do you usually use hot press paper ? I use cold press but wondering if I should get some hot press after watching so many of your wonderful videos with mark making .

You are so welcome! And there’ll be a new long one coming soon! (They do take a while to put together but they’re so popular it’s worth it!!)
Thank you so much for posting this long video! I look forward to making some of these cards. 🤗

Exactly!!
I love your dicarded painting I think its beautiful
Thanks so much 😊
I’ve always loved the sheep. I wonder what they’re thinking..
When you started that lovely wreath I thought how will it ever turn out round without some pencil lines but you did a great job of it!
I have a guardian angel!

That is awesome! Sometimes the simplest things are the best, aren’t they!
Beautiful tutorial ❤my circles never stay circle ,always lop sided xx
First sheep: All ready for the company party?
Second sheep: as always, I fall asleep
Third sheep: just don't ewe drink too much egg nog!
😂🤣❤️😂🤣❤️
I painted the mice in the stockings last year for my daughter in law. It’s such a cute painting! I can’t believe it’s been a whole year. It goes by faster and faster the older I get.
That is so true, and a bit unnerving. So glad you enjoyed that painting!
I'm so very sorry to hear about the poor dog, the conflict with the neighbor, and the discomfort that is causing you, Diane!! I had a very similar experience years ago. Animal Control said that the poor dog's 6 foot leash was leagally acceptable and she had water within reach.

It was torturous!!!

I'm enjoying the Christmas paint-alongs!!! Thanks for sharing 💖
Diane ,when there are lots of berries or lots of acorns it means a strong winter
I love your painting and they inspire me lots. I am still very new at painting. What white pen do you use over the paint for it to stand out so much?
You could try an Artistro paint pen like this one: Artistro White Paint Pens amzn.to/3qjSxCe
What size brush did you use on the berry wreath? It's beautiful.
