That is what I ended up going with. ... It seemed to be the general consensus. 🌸😉 I'm not sure if in your painting you are just using dotting tools or just using brushes but I did separate playlists for each of those as well if that makes it easier for you to find the rest of my videos.
I like to listen to the whole video. Sometimes you say some thing as your painting that you might not of thought of to say ahead of time. That is very helpful. I think you do beautiful work, and I thoroughly enjoy it. Gayle Dayton Ohio
I paint with you, I also enjoy just sitting and watching you paint. I actually am usually complaining cuz you are so quick and I always have to pause and rewind a lot. I like the videos to be real time
Thank you so much for your input on this. I appreciate that people understand that they can pause and fast forward at will. I'm so glad you like the video. I hope you're enjoying painting! It's great therapy these days
Thank you. There is something more earthy with the natural stone connection. I understand not everyone can get natural and I do like the molds...but I have been pai t real stones since I was 5 years old. I love it. So grounding...if that makes sense💗💗😉
Since I’m fairly new to this I really like the longer videos - and I watch the whole video, sometimes more than once. I feel like I learn something each time
You are doing wonderfully at teaching people! If the haters don't like it they can fast forward! Thank you for you videos! I paint with you every week, you keep me Zen!
Just discovered you and please do not shorten your videos...if people need it to be shorter then they can fast forward,,,,I am a senior and it seems a wonderful venue for me to make some unique gifts for people that will bring me great pleasure to do, and not cost the world while I learn,,,,thanks to your detailed teachings I am creating and it feels wonderful! I find myself looking for designs and colour combos that with a bit of tweaking I can make my own. Thank you for your time, and know that you do inspire a lot of 'closet artists' to come out and play..., hopefully bringing joy to those we gift....Bless you🙏💖👍
The beauty of UA-cam is, if you don't want to or don't have time, you can fast forward. Please, don't shorten your creativity. It's very inspiring to watch you creat beautiful art. Thank you.
I hope you find it helpful. I feel it is difficult to see what someone is doing..especially when so much goes on in my head. Plus you cannot really "see" when I am using more pressure etc Have to say it
I love your longer videos personally. I am newer and appreciate your info plus as I have mentioned in another comment, focusing on what you are doing plus the relaxing tone of your voice are now my go to for trying to relax my anxiety, depression, chronic pain and PTSD. I am so thankful to you for that. You had mentioned about doing two kinds of videos? Maybe a regular one like this for those that like the length and shorts for those not liking length. 🤗
I learn by painting my Mandalas with you. I’m such a Copy Cat! Love your colors and instructions. I’m always inspired to do another using different colors! People often come to visit for a stay of a few days. I always love asking them to paint a rock or two before they leave. It’s so much fun to have play time with friends at 65!
I enjoy the length of your videos and like how you do them now very much. I'm a beginner and I prefer the long version. Thank you for sharing your love of art, your techniques and ideas.
I love your vidios. Im new to this as many of us are. You have a soothing voice and manner. I vote for long ones just like this one. Its a bit hard to get the same look when your not sure what size to make your dots. Thank you for your time and sharing your talents.
I think I prefer your long form videos. They are calming, and I get the chance to study how you are doing each step. This was a very pretty mandala. The color choices were perfect. Thank you!
Wonderful! 100% of the people that responded said longer! Thank you for your feedback. It is so helpful to know what people think about this. I really appreciate your kind words about my designs :)
WOW! I’ve never made a mandala. I’ve always thought it would be too difficult, but after watching you so patiently break the technique down I’m going to try. Thank you so much I truly loved watching this beautiful video.
Hi Miranda, thank you sooo much for your outstanding instructional videos. They are perfect. I am new to this fun dot painting so I learn from every part of your longer videos. Like how to grip the brush, hand placement and so much more. I have seen some of the fast forward video’s that are out there but yours are my favorite by far. The time you take is appreciated! Thank you. Your work is fantastic too!
I came across your videos as I was looking for a new technique to teach the children I work with. I appreciate the whole video. If I need to speed past a lengthy part, I can always jump forward. I love this heart, and I'm definitely going to try my hand at it. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the wonderful helpful videos you share with us. I am learning so much from you and really appreciate your encouragement to us that are new to dotting. I'm learning from you to have more patience with dotting and practice, practice and practice. Please keep doing the long videos.
I love your videos and I think they are perfect, I paint with u, not always the same things u paint...but I'm copying your style as much as possible. Ty
I love to see the entire videos. I am a newbie, and trying to get nerve to get started, so please do not skip or speed up. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
It really is my pleasure. I try my best to make the videos work for everyone...but we know it is impossible to please everyone at one time. I have tried to make the length suitable for UA-cam to even show. I am so glad you enjoyed this one. It was one of my favorites from years ago :)
New to this & love it. Takes a little practice to get the dots nice but am working hard at it & enjoying at the same time. Thank you for your awesome videos, they are perfect!
I'm just learning this craft and I found your channel and I love it! Your very talented and I've watched your shorter videos and I have to go back and watch several times to keep up with your work and I have the same thought process as you trying to make decisions on what to do next.. your voice is so soothing and calms me instead of me panicking over what to do next and you give great advice and inspires me! So I do enjoy the short videos but I find the longer ones the best to sit down and enjoy painting with you more than anything! I hope my input helps... dont let UA-cam to pressure you... your fans that are serious about this craft will be watching as you we enjoy your work. And I would hate to see it split up into parts 😞 thank you so much for your hard work!
Your video is most definitely not too long. As I watched you working I noticed little techniques that I hadn't seen before, and as you continued on so smoothly, I began to relax. Isn't that the point of all this??? Anyway, Thank you sooo much.
I just subscribed to you're channel. Please do NOT cut the videos.. Your voice and hands are gorgeous, I like the way you dot and it helps me because I'm a starter.. Yesterday they just delivered my dotting set. Regards from The Netherlands 🤗
Your videos are so soothing and the pieces are so beautiful!!! You are the “Bobbie Ross” of mandala dot painting in my book 💕. So glad I found your videos - I shared one with my grandson (10yr) and he is now creating beautiful pieces - he made several for my garden and for his great grandmother. Thank you !!!!! (Your videos are perfect - don’t change a thing)
Very pretty ...it is rich ...maybe I have too much time on my hands but I will probably watch a 2nd time after gathering the supplies and letting the black heart dry and paint along on the next watch...sometimes on shorter how tos I find myself rushing which does defeat the purpose ...in my opinion ...of creating art to begin with although I always learn something ...it is more of a share to paint along for me. And my chihuahua Soco is snoring under my chair lol ...Beautiful heart thanks for sharing !
Thank you so much for your feedback! I love little Chihuahuas they are so adorable! Does Soco mean something? It is very cute name. This heart was really wonderful to create and many people that it was so sad when I said I'm going to go paint my heart black hahaha oh, but you get the gist and the necessity for it. This was one of my earlier videos I hope you stick around to see some of the later ones. Thank you so much for taking the time to say hi
I just heard you say some people only watch for 7 mins. I watch all the way through some times I paint, sometimes I am working on something different. I really enjoy your videos. I hope some day I am half as good as you are. Thanks for the inspiration.
Yes, unfortunately UA-cam sends me the analysis showing me how people do not watch the full videos. I wonder about the technology as I have had so many people tell me they prefer and watch the whole full length videos. Oh well..I just keep on doing what I do and I am thankful for so many people that it has helped.💗💗💗
I just found your videos. I am new to this type of art and appreciate all your information. I loved the fall heart. This might be my first project. Your heart is beautiful. ❤️
Once I get a chance to paint along, I’m definitely going to watch the longer videos. I love listening to your design process, and your color sense is A+. Thank you so much for making these videos. You are a natural.
Thank you so much for your kind words!! This is so nice to hear. I hope you find these videos helpful once you start painting. I look forward to interacting more and seeing your work!! :)
Miranda, I thoroughly enjoy watching you, because of your tone of voice and because you seem to take your time. Some of the others seem to go too fast and by the time the session is over I feel like I can’t keep up. Keep up your enjoyable tutorials . HAPPY NEW YEAR to your’s.........mc
Please don't shorten your videos. I just started learning this year. It is really a challenge I don't know how hard it is to do this. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING SO HELPFUL. GOD BLESS...
I'm just learning, so I like to see you make each dot in "real time". I've seen the videos with sped-up stuff, & I don't get the same information that you give us. Keep up the good work! I wouldn't change a thing!!
....and with a fold of the paper to make something symmetrical, you just solved all my problems. I thought I might have to spend a tonne of money on stencils and the such, when I can just fold some paper and go to town. 😂 Genius has always been simple and never complicated. I too frequently forget this.
I like the way you off set the heart. I am getting a heart rock mold, I was sorry after I ordered it but you have changed my attitude towards doing hearts, so thanks.
Have a surgery coming up on Monday....planned to look at all the videos and have ordered and received my supplies....I wanted to be ready for my recovery.....well......I have watched all the videos and I have even painted three rocks.....I am excited. Thank you for your videos. Don't cut them short. I like seeing the projects from start to finish. Especially since I am a newbie.
I really appreciate you letting me know this. It seems that 100% of the people who have commented on the length prefer the LONG version :) I hope you have a quick recovery!
Watching this Christmas Day 2020. New subscriber. I love the way you video. Some people like sped up and some like regular like this. Your voice is soothing. And it’s good to show how you dot. Even the basics of how you cut the heart. Some people don’t know that. For me, when I see this black heart, my first instinct would be to dot from the outside in. I do dot wooden crosses that way. It’s difficult because there’s no pattern.
Oh gosh Miranda... Don't shorten your vids... Some of us need every bit of instruction! I'm a decorative painter (tole etc)...but I'm learning dots! Thank you for what you do!!!
Thanks for the video. I have never seen it done freehand with a paint brush before . You are talented and it's a beautiful design. Nice voice to listen to.
I love the fact that you take your time. It’s much easier to see exactly how you are making your fabulous designs. I wouldn’t change anything. I love the way you explain what you are doing and why. Keep up the good work. I have learned a lot from you 😊
Thank you so much for commenting on this. I really appreciate hearing what others think about the whole process. Plus we are always a work in progress. I would like to know how I can improve if possible :)
My only suggestion would be to increase your sound a little. As far as I’m concerned you’re right on target. So very glad I found your channel! You’re an excellent teacher. Keep up the good work!!
Hi - I'm new to dotting. Haven't created a piece yet, still practicing/learning daily tho. I love to watch your tutorials, in their entirety, Miranda. You have real talent/creativity & I'm learning so much. I've painted along with you several times & I get better each time. Thank you for sharing your talent & your love of art. Your pieces are gorgeous, I have so many favorites! Thank you again. Keep up the good work!
Love your way of teaching, our days are in the high 80's now so dotting will be on my agenda with paint drying slower. Have been collecting rocks so when cool weather hits will be ready to spend lots of time at this. Hobby Lobby just put all of their acrylics on sale at 30% off....I really like Anita's brand it is so creamy and only 77 cents a bottle regular price.
I’m a first time watcher and I appreciate the whole process! I am learning so much! You should do what you enjoy doing the most, your work shows how passionate you are about your art.
I love the long videos and love painting along with you...I enjoy hearing your creative process and also enjoy the positive feedback just when I think my dots are horrible! Please don't shorten them...you are providing a much needed venue.
Excellent! Thank you so much for your feedback on this. I never really know till people tell me. I am so happy they are helpful and encouraging. That is exactly my goal...I never want people to be disheartened and think they can not create something beautiful and special :)
I enjoy listening to you walk through your process and especially appreciate the time you take to explain your methods. If this is how you enjoy making your videos - then I suggest sticking to what works for you, most of us seem to like your style as it is. :) By the way, this is going to be my next project, thanks for showing how you did it.
Thank you so much for your wonderful encouragement! I do want to keep my own style and I think it is helpful for people to hear the thought process. This heart just spoke fall colors and love to me. Sharing it with others is just sharing the love. Thank you again for your kind words
Thank you so much! They are a beatiful fall color pallete. Decoart has such a great selection. ....but no matter what paint you use...you will want a protective clear coat.They have that in matte if that is your choice :)
Just watched the video AFTER attempting my first mandala stones with my girls (10&11). We watched this video last night and were inspired to give it another go! If it turns out well, we will let you know (first attempts pre-video viewing turned out - meh - but we didn't know what we were doing!). Thank you for posting! I bought the brush from the link.
I really like your videos, I always watch your videos to the end. It is nice to settle down after a long day and just watch someone take the time to show their skills. It’s time out plus we get to learn new techniques, (the swipe or swish for example) fully explained. Thank you for sharing your skills, it’s much appreciated 😀
It is a blessing for me to be able to share! I try to explain these things to the best of my ability or what I am thinking as I go through a design. I am so happy that is helpful for you and others :) Thank you so much for watching and for your time stopping to let me know what you think :)
Beautiful love all your videos and thank you for the tips on what I can use for dotting tools which I was about ready to give up by now on trying to find them seems none of the craft stores in my area even know what I am talking about when I ask the help there
Awww...that sounds frustrating. I am so glad you found this helpful. Etsy and Amazon have helpful items for dotting as well. And you want your paint to be a bit fluid..like cake batter. Water based acrylics and not heavy body paints will work best.Feel free to ask more questions. Also there are many Facebook groups that are all about dotting...you could check those out
Don't shorten videos please. I get so into watching I can't stop. Someone wants it shorter they can fast forward.
That is what I ended up going with. ... It seemed to be the general consensus. 🌸😉 I'm not sure if in your painting you are just using dotting tools or just using brushes but I did separate playlists for each of those as well if that makes it easier for you to find the rest of my videos.
That is beautiful. I love the longer video. Your instructions are relaxing and easy to follow. thank You
loved it all
thanks
I prefer long videos. This way I can watch you and do the dotting with you step by step. Thank you for all of the beautiful stuff you have showed us 😃
Thank you so much for chiming in with some feedback💙💙💙🪷🪷🪷
@@MirandaPitrone you are very welcome 😃 🙏
FAB U LOUS. I’m late to the party but I love listening to your thought processes. Long, short or in between, I’ll watch them all.
Never too late. I am so glad these designs are still bring people joy😉🍁
I'm painting with you. I like it. Others can skip ashtrays. This is relaxing, which is the whole point. Thank you.
Skip ahead, not ashtrays. And I can't edit. Smh.
I like to listen to the whole video. Sometimes you say some thing as your painting that you might not of thought of to say ahead of time. That is very helpful. I think you do beautiful work, and I thoroughly enjoy it. Gayle Dayton Ohio
I paint with you, I also enjoy just sitting and watching you paint. I actually am usually complaining cuz you are so quick and I always have to pause and rewind a lot. I like the videos to be real time
Also, I sometimes will watch the videos in my downtime for ideas so sometimes 6 mins in and I'm off doing my own project
Thank you so much for your input on this. I appreciate that people understand that they can pause and fast forward at will. I'm so glad you like the video. I hope you're enjoying painting! It's great therapy these days
I love that you use your own shape on a natural rock rather than a molded round.
Thank you. There is something more earthy with the natural stone connection. I understand not everyone can get natural and I do like the molds...but I have been pai t real stones since I was 5 years old. I love it. So grounding...if that makes sense💗💗😉
Great heart
Thank you kindly💞
Since I’m fairly new to this I really like the longer videos - and I watch the whole video, sometimes more than once. I feel like I learn something each time
Excellent! I am so glad. Thank you for taking the time to let me know this :) I like to learn something new every day :)
I like the longer videos. I paint along with you.
Thank you the longer video helps beginners love you calm direct instruction as you work.
You are doing wonderfully at teaching people! If the haters don't like it they can fast forward! Thank you for you videos! I paint with you every week, you keep me Zen!
You are so encouraging!! Thank you very much!!
Just discovered you and please do not shorten your videos...if people need it to be shorter then they can fast forward,,,,I am a senior and it seems a wonderful venue for me to make some unique gifts for people that will bring me great pleasure to do, and not cost the world while I learn,,,,thanks to your detailed teachings I am creating and it feels wonderful! I find myself looking for designs and colour combos that with a bit of tweaking I can make my own.
Thank you for your time, and know that you do inspire a lot of 'closet artists' to come out and play..., hopefully bringing joy to those we gift....Bless you🙏💖👍
The beauty of UA-cam is, if you don't want to or don't have time, you can fast forward. Please, don't shorten your creativity. It's very inspiring to watch you creat beautiful art. Thank you.
I enjoy every minute. I am just beginning. My placement needs a lot improvement. I really like the angle brush. Keep doing what your doing. Thanks
Awesome! Thank you! keep at it! You will get the hang of it :)
Please do not cut your videos down, Love watching the whole thing and I learn so much by doing so.
Wonderful!! Thank you so much. I really appreciate the feedback!!
I'm new to dotting mandalas so I tend to watch the whole process. Your narrative as you paint, your ideas and process is fascinating.
I hope you find it helpful. I feel it is difficult to see what someone is doing..especially when so much goes on in my head. Plus you cannot really "see" when I am using more pressure etc Have to say it
I love your longer videos personally. I am newer and appreciate your info plus as I have mentioned in another comment, focusing on what you are doing plus the relaxing tone of your voice are now my go to for trying to relax my anxiety, depression, chronic pain and PTSD.

Keep doing what you're doing! :)
Awesome! Thank you! I really appreciate the encouragement. Also it is so cool to hear that you paint along with me :)
Please do not shorten your video! I enjoy watching the entire process.

You are so welcome!What a wonderful thing to share with children!!
Thank you so much for the wonderful helpful videos you share with us. I am learning so much from you and really appreciate your encouragement to us that are new to dotting.

Your videos are so soothing and the pieces are so beautiful!!! You are the “Bobbie Ross” of mandala dot painting in my book 💕.

Wow, thank you! I cannot believe I am only seeing this now. You have made my day!!! I am so happy to hear you are sharing this with family :)
I’m just starting but I like the hole video.. I watch all of it... love the heart...
I really like watching the whole process. But the 2 different versions/lengths sounds like a good idea.
Very pretty ...it is rich ...maybe I have too much time on my hands but I will probably watch a 2nd time after gathering the supplies and letting the black heart dry and paint along on the next watch...sometimes on shorter how tos I find myself rushing which does defeat the purpose ...in my opinion ...of creating art to begin with although I always learn something ...it is more of a share to paint along for me.

Stick with it..even if you do not think you are progressing...then one day you will look back and see how far you have come💗💗
I appreciate the long version so I know how it is done and not feel like I have to swoosh and dot at a rapid rate. Thank you.
Yes. Peaceful painting. 😉❤️
I just found your videos. I am new to this type of art and appreciate all your information. I loved the fall heart. This might be my first project. Your heart is beautiful. ❤️
Wonderful!I am so glad you are enjoying them!! :)

@@MirandaPitrone hey miranda, just schetsjin a fresh stone ... cant show ya yet , unfortunately.. but dot dot dotting away^*^
I think your videos are great just the way they are! I dotted this along with you and paused the playback when necessary. Loved this heart!!
I like to paint with you - I like the longer videos!
Good to know!Thank you :)
I am an artist, and I must say, I have NEVER seen such a steady hand with a brush. I LOVE this rock so much I want to buy it!
That is so sweet. It was a lovely smooth stone too
Miranda, I thoroughly enjoy watching you, because of your tone of voice and because you seem to take your time. Some of the others seem to go too fast and by the time the session is over I feel like I can’t keep up. Keep up your enjoyable tutorials . HAPPY NEW YEAR to your’s.........mc
This was SO informative, and this design is *gorgeous*! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Please don't shorten your videos. I just started learning this year. It is really a challenge I don't know how hard it is to do this. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING SO HELPFUL.
GOD BLESS...
That seems to be the consensus. Long, calm and dot on :) Welcome to the dotting world!! It is going to be so much fun!!! Thank you for your feedback!
I agree to the longer videos. This way I can paint along with you and do not have to keep going back.
Awesome!! That makes it a little easier :) I have been trying to make sure I list all the colors too :)
I really like your videos , real time not hurried, we can see more brush work and learn from the slower pace . Keep up the good work.
Beautiful as always!! I luv the long videos...so I can paint with u!!
Awww...Thnak you so much!! I hope you enjoyed this one! It is one of my favorites :)
I'm just learning, so I like to see you make each dot in "real time". I've seen the videos with sped-up stuff, & I don't get the same information that you give us. Keep up the good work! I wouldn't change a thing!!
I appreciate the longer videos.
Thank you!
Beautiful!!
....and with a fold of the paper to make something symmetrical, you just solved all my problems. I thought I might have to spend a tonne of money on stencils and the such, when I can just fold some paper and go to town. 😂 Genius has always been simple and never complicated. I too frequently forget this.
Nope....easy inexpensive fix...no stencils :) Happy to help :)
I like the way you off set the heart. I am getting a heart rock mold, I was sorry after I ordered it but you have changed my attitude towards doing hearts, so thanks.
Love your art cannot wait to get my Mandela sticks to start
I am so exciited for you to start on this path!! It is so relaxing!
It must be so relaxing to do! It's very relaxing to watch! 💜
It really is!
Have a surgery coming up on Monday....planned to look at all the videos and have ordered and received my supplies....I wanted to be ready for my recovery.....well......I have watched all the videos and I have even painted three rocks.....I am excited. Thank you for your videos. Don't cut them short. I like seeing the projects from start to finish. Especially since I am a newbie.
I really appreciate you letting me know this. It seems that 100% of the people who have commented on the length prefer the LONG version :) I hope you have a quick recovery!
Watching this Christmas Day 2020. New subscriber. I love the way you video. Some people like sped up and some like regular like this.
Your voice is soothing. And it’s good to show how you dot. Even the basics of how you cut the heart. Some people don’t know that.
For me, when I see this black heart, my first instinct would be to dot from the outside in. I do dot wooden crosses that way. It’s difficult because there’s no pattern.
I love the longer videos! Thank you for doing this
Thank you for watching and the feedback. I feel like I ask a question and hear crickets chirping sometimes...hahaha
@@MirandaPitrone I have watched all of your videos at least once. I love all of them!
Wow!! You are dedicated!! Thank you so much. You are so sweet :)
Oh gosh Miranda... Don't shorten your vids... Some of us need every bit of instruction! I'm a decorative painter (tole etc)...but I'm learning dots! Thank you for what you do!!!
I luv the longer videos too!! Luv ur work!
Wonderful! Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I have never seen it done freehand with a paint brush before . You are talented and it's a beautiful design. Nice voice to listen to.
Thank you so much for watching. I am glad you enjoyed the video.
I love the fact that you take your time. It’s much easier to see exactly how you are making your fabulous designs. I wouldn’t change anything. I love the way you explain what you are doing and why. Keep up the good work. I have learned a lot from you 😊
Thank you so much for commenting on this. I really appreciate hearing what others think about the whole process. Plus we are always a work in progress. I would like to know how I can improve if possible :)
My only suggestion would be to increase your sound a little. As far as I’m concerned you’re right on target. So very glad I found your channel! You’re an excellent teacher. Keep up the good work!!
Thank you. Will do :)
Hi -
I'm new to dotting. Haven't created a piece yet, still practicing/learning daily tho. I love to watch your tutorials, in their entirety, Miranda. You have real talent/creativity & I'm learning so much. I've painted along with you several times & I get better each time. Thank you for sharing your talent & your love of art. Your pieces are gorgeous, I have so many favorites!
Thank you again. Keep up the good work!
You can do it! Welcome aboard! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to say hello :)
Love your way of teaching, our days are in the high 80's now so dotting will be on my agenda with paint drying slower. Have been collecting rocks so when cool weather hits will be ready to spend lots of time at this. Hobby Lobby just put all of their acrylics on sale at 30% off....I really like Anita's brand it is so creamy and only 77 cents a bottle regular price.
Hot days....Ohhhh I will be at Hobby Lobby tomorrow :) Yay! Thank you for the info
I’m a first time watcher and I appreciate the whole process! I am learning so much! You should do what you enjoy doing the most, your work shows how passionate you are about your art.
Welcome! I am so glad you are finding helpful and I really appreciate you taking the time to make comment to encourage me too💗💗
I love the long videos and love painting along with you...I enjoy hearing your creative process and also enjoy the positive feedback just when I think my dots are horrible! Please don't shorten them...you are providing a much needed venue.
Excellent! Thank you so much for your feedback on this. I never really know till people tell me. I am so happy they are helpful and encouraging. That is exactly my goal...I never want people to be disheartened and think they can not create something beautiful and special :)
Your work is beautiful.😊 I love watching your video just found you on UA-cam will be watching more thank you!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful....your designs are amazing.... I will try this.
Fun, I’m going to try this! Thank you
I enjoy listening to you walk through your process and especially appreciate the time you take to explain your methods. If this is how you enjoy making your videos - then I suggest sticking to what works for you, most of us seem to like your style as it is. :) By the way, this is going to be my next project, thanks for showing how you did it.
Thank you so much for your wonderful encouragement! I do want to keep my own style and I think it is helpful for people to hear the thought process. This heart just spoke fall colors and love to me. Sharing it with others is just sharing the love. Thank you again for your kind words
Wow!.. That is beautiful and excellent pallet of color combinations.
Thank you so much! They are a beatiful fall color pallete. Decoart has such a great selection. ....but no matter what paint you use...you will want a protective clear coat.They have that in matte if that is your choice :)
Just watched the video AFTER attempting my first mandala stones with my girls (10&11). We watched this video last night and were inspired to give it another go! If it turns out well, we will let you know (first attempts pre-video viewing turned out - meh - but we didn't know what we were doing!). Thank you for posting! I bought the brush from the link.
Ty for this. It’s not as easy as people think it is.
you are right. It can be a little bit of a challenge...but well worth it! :)
Very pretty!!
That is so pretty, so enjoyable to watch. You are so perfect with your art💖
Thank you very much!
What a beautiful piece.... I love it!!!😊😊😊
I love your longer videos, please keep them long ☺️👍😘
Ok, Great! Thank you so much for telling me this. I appreciate the feedback :)
I not only paint along I usually watch it no less than twice before I even begin
That is awesome.. You must be sick of me by now..hahaha. I am so happy you are enjoying them. Thank you for watching
I try to follow with you as a newbie. I still have to pause so for me slower is better! You are my favorite dotter!
2 years. How is it going for you now?❤️😉
Your videos are not too long. Love them
Excellent! Thank you for the feedback :)
I really like your videos, I always watch your videos to the end. It is nice to settle down after a long day and just watch someone take the time to show their skills. It’s time out plus we get to learn new techniques, (the swipe or swish for example) fully explained.
Thank you for sharing your skills, it’s much appreciated 😀
It is a blessing for me to be able to share! I try to explain these things to the best of my ability or what I am thinking as I go through a design. I am so happy that is helpful for you and others :) Thank you so much for watching and for your time stopping to let me know what you think :)
Keep doing what you do Thank you 😊
Thank you...I did keep on. There are now over 100 videos from me on here. I appreciate the encouragement 💞
I like the long video’s! Your artwork is beautiful.
Thank you so much....
Beautiful love all your videos and thank you for the tips on what I can use for dotting tools which I was about ready to give up by now on trying to find them seems none of the craft stores in my area even know what I am talking about when I ask the help there
Awww...that sounds frustrating. I am so glad you found this helpful. Etsy and Amazon have helpful items for dotting as well. And you want your paint to be a bit fluid..like cake batter. Water based acrylics and not heavy body paints will work best.Feel free to ask more questions. Also there are many Facebook groups that are all about dotting...you could check those out
Miranda Pitrone Art well the good part is there are plenty of beauty supply shops I can get nail dotting tools ♥️ again thank you for the helpful tips
