I know the goal was realistic painting of lips, but I can't help loving the "don't" one xD

[EliBlau]

This was perfect ^_^ thank you very much for the tutorial.

About the next thing to do or how to paint, how about H A N D S? I’m really curious in watching your technique!

Thank you, sunshine! ☺️

I have always loved this series and I'm glad to see it back. There's something really organic and almost raw to your painting style that I really love and admire.

Well young Lady you are a GEM! you continue to create vitally vibrant content no matter hat social media outlet your use! I believe you might tackle hands next for those inclined towards the body paintings, and why not some Seascapes for those of us still lamenting for the water paintings of old? Your so talented and I do mean your gifts allow you to concentrate and excel at instruction, I used to be good at teaching as well, I seem to lack the patience these days. Oh to ageing not as gracefully as we could wish to do so! I adore your offerings and wish to tell you that your appreciated. You are truly amazing. Thank You.

I'll love a hair tutorial, I don't know why I find hair painting complicated

[STICKYArt]

Great tutorial! Lips 👄 can be challenging!

[satelliite]

its so nice to see when you pick up a paint color and start building the paitings! it makes me understand more about your process and how I could learn from you, thanks for that!

[berndmusura]

I watch your videos on and off for some time now and i just love your intros and your humour overall, thank you for that. And thank you for your great skill to teach.

[evaefstathiou]

its really comforting to see you use tracing transfers for your drawing section! i do this as i'm much more of a painter and dont particularly enjoy drawing even though i would be ble to get an accurate drawing if i worked on it for long enough, but it always makes me feel like a bit of a cheat (even though its really not cheating bc u still have to paint the entire thing) thankyou! xx

[syedasultana]

Love that you're back and brighter than ever

[vickyclark]

Love your water, oceans, waves, landscapes, Portraits, and awesome tutorials! Love hoodie and live animals popping in and out and you making the magic happen!!! I'd love to see paintings of people doing what they love most, like singing, repelling, hiking, children playing or just crazy memories where the painting tells a story, like the Mona Lisa, the chickens, or some wonderful adventure like painting in the mountains, wait, you've done all this, haha!!! love You !

This is super helpful!! Thank you! A few months ago I had to do a close up portrait for my painting project, and for some realize the lips just looked off and it was because I made them wayyy too pink, so seeing this helped me realize what other shades i should’ve incorporated. Also I missed your videos so much!^^~

[Jess-xdeu]

Oh hell yeah. It's like you knew I just found your channel and needed the mouth portion. Thank you!

[donnacampbell]
