    So happy to see this. I just got my brushes delivered yesterday and I’m excited to try them on my swooshes. This is so helpful even for someone like me who has been dotting for a couple of years. I could never get those swooshes so evenly the way you do so hoping these brushes will help. I was using shorter ones. Thank you Demi for not only sharing your art but you knowledge with us. It’s greatly appreciated.

    I'm jealous. The swooshing is making me nuts. I always use Deco Art Americana. Might be my brush. When use lighter paint on black, the black shows thru. This is beautiful.

    Hi 👋🏾 Demi… thanks ☺️ for uploading this video, it is very detailed and informative!! I would like to ask how to you like to position yourself while creating your large mandalas such as this? I know you said kind of positioning to the right helps with these swooshes. I love 💗 your work and I’ve been so inspired to create this art 🎨!! 🙏🏾💜💯

    Love the tutorial! Learning so much from you!!
    I have a question though::
    You wash your brush and use it again when it’s wet?? Just dip it into the paint and use it again? Don’t you get bubbles on your artwork ??

    Hi Demi… I just came across your very helpful demonstration, so that you for that! I was wondering if hand positioning and wrist movement are important factors in making swooshes. It feels like mine get kind of “stuck” when I get to the curve of the swoosh and that’s where I make a mess 🫤

    I've been practicing the b rush swooshes, and it DOES take some practice to get the feel of the pressure you need. But I'll get it.

    Hi Demi, I keep watching this tutorial and try to do what you do. I’ve got the same brushes and paint, I’m practicing, but still the magic is not really happening…. I’ve seen you on patreon, do you go into more depth in your lessons on Patreon in regards to getting these swooshes happening? Is the Patreon a monthly fee? Thanks! Phoenicia

    I’m new to dot painting - all I’ve done were a few Christmas ornaments. Wondering what happens to the guide marks - it looks as though they remain somewhat visible on the finished piece.

      Yeap, i get the same problem. I added medium to make paint less thick but it didn’t help. Even with minimal pressure my swooshes are “streaky”. 😢
