"Showing up for yourself". That's exactly what it's all about. It's not about anyone else's opinions of our output. It's about creating our own creative place for self expression. Love this video! Glad I found your channel. 💕

Watercolor is so freeing for me. "At the end of the day, it's only paper." Thank you for your videos. They have helped this beginner so much.

I started following watercolor tutorials and feel like I can't paint from my imagination. But it's okay, I'm doing this to heal myself. My own therapy.

Thank you Mako for being such an inspiration!

[WhimsicalHare]

Just to let you know, I've spent a couple years watching you and recreating some of your works/tutorials. I have never felt more like I had a teacher in front of me than while watching your videos. You are so great at what you do, and I have signed up for the waiting list of your latest class. Thank you for all that you do!

I started colouring in adult colouring books again and really love bringing the pages alive..

[leahduselli]

I never leave comments on videos but I really think you should know how much your advice speaks to me.
There are so many aspects of my life I can apply this attitude too.
Thank you!

I bought some supplies and I plan on learning how to paint with watercolours soon! I love how you touched on adapting and adjusting in life - since watercolours can be unpredictable and harder to control compared to other mediums. Your videos are always an inspiration ❤❤

I have watched many youtube videos about how to paint with watercolour. But only makoccino that give me the "right" tutorial somehow (this is just my opinion so don't judge me)

I've ever felt like "I don't wanna paint anymore" because my painting looks very bad. But then I take a look at one of your video and it gives me some spirit to do watercolor. Now I feel like my painting has improved day by day. Thanks for all your tutorial and motivation that you say within those painting videos

[eloracy]

Wow...you came just on time in my life...I felt you were discribing what I DO!!! Thank you SO much!

[seenaap]

Woke up this morning..and was confused as to why I can't stick with what I want to do (self-talk) and seeking perfectionism...
And then I find this video. Thank you.

I usually compare it to the old good days when I was drawing as a kid. I drew it bc I liked not because someone wolf me to do it. I loved to show what I draw to my mom but I never drew just for her.

[davidjackson]

I found this video really helpful because drawing and painting on and off since I left school 20 years ago but I haven't always kept it up I do draw but I never let anyone see what I draw or paint because Its the fear of been criticized and I think sometimes when use watercolours I think I end up over powering to painting and messing it up I think your tips on watercolours are very helpful
