You never fail to empress!!!! He is simply stunning!! You did a wonderful job on his face and the sparkles are beautiful!! Thank you!! You are such a blessing!!
I love this Santa! Please don't feel nervous or intimidated. You are so talented and your true fans would never make you feel that way! We appreciate and love you and your work! ❤
What an absolutely stunning piece of art! 😮 Santa's face is perfect, Rachel! Never doubt your ability on any of your work like human faces. He is magnificent! 😍😘
You've taught me not to be afraid of mixing paint; thank you! I love your videos. Watching from Tennessee. He should be asleep; it's night. lol His beard and moustache and white part of his hat look so fluffy, like clouds. He's beautiful.
Stop apologizing for your work! You always do an amazing job! I follow you religiously. Some people are just negative about everything. Ignore them and be proud that you are helping so many of us. Love you Rachel. And your face is wonderful! What are you talking about that you can’t do faces??👍
Im watching you as we speak on my big tv. Thank you for this video and all of your videos!. I suffer horribly with severe depression, anxiety and stomach issues so I'm sick everyday, but your awesome personality and hard work just lifts me up. Your a ray of sunshine! Thank you so much🤗😊 😘🎄☃️
Rachel I'm from Ireland. I have been watching your videos for months. I have learned so much from you. I too have no training as an artist but I like to dabble. I find it so relaxing and therapeutic. I lost my teenage son to brain cancer nearly ten years ago and I discovered that art has helped me to lose myself in creativity. The pain of losing him is excruciating. I still don't understand why he had to die. Your videos are wonderful. You are a natural. You share so selflessly. I want to thank you. I have started making gifts for friends and family with the pieces that I have created while watching you. Please ignore all the dislikes. You are fantastic. And your voice is soothing. Your laugh is contagious. You are a lovely person. Ignore the begrudgers. Keep those videos coming and know that you are making a difference. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He looks magnificent! I love that he is sleeping. He looks happy he has delivered all of his presents and is enjoying his nap. Makes me want to turn on the song “Santa Baby”. Have a wonderful Christmas!
I was so taken with this, Rachel. He looks so real. I love everything you did on this rock! The beard is delightful and the stars! They are gorgeous. Please don’t be so hard on yourself - you have such a gift and you are so kind and funny and loving. We all love you right back. ♥️
OMG!! He is so lovely!! I love watching your creations! You always give me the confidence to try to create outside of my comfort zone! I love hearing about your boys and your silliness lifts my days! I wish you would embrace how many people love you and your work and do not let negative viewers affect your magic ❤️
He is LOVELY 🥰 You did his face perfectly, too. I wish I could get you to understand that Noone needs a formal art education to be an artist. If you can create.. you are one. Period!! Also, we do not HAVE to be perfect in every form to have a successful piece of art, Hon. Just think how boring it would be if we all did things exactly the same way as taught exactly the same way as art instructors. You keep doing YOU... KEEP making your beautiful art.❤❤❤ Feel better soon!
Don't be so hard on yourself, your santa moon turned out amazing. As an artist myself I know we are are worest critics when it comes to our art. We see all the imperfections that other people won't see.
Do people actually jump down your throat for not doing something this way or that way?! My goodness, it's art! There's no right or wrong way when your creating something. We all view things different, therefore we create our art differently. It's OK to be different and to do things different. I just don't understand the fuss. It truly is mind blowing. Your rock art is absolutely beautiful! It's your style and technique's that make it that way! I hope you're not too hard on yourself because someone wants your piece of art to look the way they see "right." I love how this turned out! ♥️🎅
sending my heart to you also Rachel, Its a beautiful Santa moon. I am not sure i will try it, I too am not confident, but you should be. Your work is absolutely beautiful to me and it gives me such joy to watch your tutorials even if I dont try them. I always come away happier and calmer after watching you. I am struggling this year as many are, but you make life a little brighter.... I appreciate you and love you , Thank you
While heading into a new Christmas Season I really enjoyed watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. You are very inspirational. Your Sleeping Santa is beautiful.
Rachel: I just wanted to thank you for these wonderful lessons. It has been super fun learning from you. It has truly brought light to me in these dark times. Keep up the beautiful work-Vennessa
You may not have gone to school but you are good and have the knack for art dear friend! And you ARE a GREAT teacher and inspiration to those of us that have the love for art in many forms. This is absolutely beautiful! I love to watch you paint. XOXO
An artist is like their art, always a work in progress.😊👍❣️ Actually, I think that’s a true statement regarding all humans but only we determine the end result. You are a talented girl, Rachel😊👍❣️🥰I thought
This is gorgeous! You should never feel lost in your confidence, you are a very creative inspirational painter!! Blessings to you and yours. Hoping you feel better!
Girl you did wonderful ! I could tell just by your sketch it was going to be a wonderful rock ! I’m going to try him , I have a the same rock I made ready for painting. He looks matte , and I think that was a good choice! Just a fantastic Moon Santa ❤️❤️
He is perfectly imperfect...as we all are...he kinda looks like my brother-in-law 😂 but seriously, you are an artist! You are a beautiful and talented woman. I look forward to your next video and have been going through some of your older ones, very entertaining and always inspiring! Thank you for sharing your gift 💝

This is amazing. Thank you 🥰
He's sleeping peacefully...and its all because of you! You never cease to amaze me!
Love love love it. How anyone can give a thumbs down is beyond me. In the words of Mary Poppins..........."practically perfect in every way" xx
My sentiments exactly. They are just a bunch of dorks. It's how they get their kicks.
It looks amazing! I’ve never seen someone freehand so fluidly with a fine line paintbrush. You’re very talented.
Santa Moon is so gorgeous. Love him. He did Santa proud.
