    Thank you very much for this great video. I love how you show exactly what you do. I really like this layering. You always come across as so sympathetic and calm. Do you actually have painting courses too?
    By the way, your cat is so cute. It's nice how you integrate them into the painting process......I have 3 cats myself and one of them is always in my studio and helps me paint.

    It’s helpful to see how much work you put into a painting. I tend to be impatient and want to get to the final result. I’m not sure why.

    • @KitchenCounterAbstract
      @KitchenCounterAbstract  5 місяців тому +1

      I’m impatient too! That’s why I work on so many pieces simultaneously. 🌺🌹🌸🌼

    Thank you so much for sharing your tips. I actually wrote them down!!! I know these things, but when I get to the "pickle place" I forget a lot. And I panic, questioning myself "WTH am I doing?" Things always turn out in the end, but I'm going to bypass that nasty devil talk next time lol! Just pull out my notes... I especially like the paint chip tip - new to me and I'm going to use it for sure!! 💙

      Thank you for this. It’s comforting to know that we all go through rough patches and your advice was really helpful. I had never thought of taking a picture of my piece and playing with it on my phone. Genius idea! 🙏🏽

      I have an episode on Mark Making - this episode inspired me to make the mark making booklets. Maybe I’ll do a video on how I make those books though. Thanks for the idea.

    Love that shade of pink, in the big book. What color and brand is that?

    • @KitchenCounterAbstract
      @KitchenCounterAbstract  5 місяців тому

      I most likely mixed that from a variety of colors. I’m using Liquitex and Golden paints. Watch my video on mixing color if you want the deets! 💐🪷
