Happy Thursday! In my last video we were testing out all the different gold metallic watercolors, that's why I decided this time we could play around with them and create something beautiful! Have you painted with metallic watercolors yet? If so, how have you used it? Let me know!

Yesss. I just love metallic colours on black background

[anu_ghosh]

I was having a bad day but watching you paint helped me to calm down and this works even better than meditation. Thank you so much😍❤️

[tracyleal]

What you said at 3:00 Mark about mistakes and life mistakes, was so helpful. Thank you.

[trasicworld]

No matter what colour you use, you always end up with a perfect work.

[Linda-qqmg]

Your paintings are lovely! You are so right about not getting discouraged while trying new things!

[potteryokc]

I like your insight of life lessons. You break down the paint process so easily and it’s so relaxing to watch. Thank you for your inspirations!

Isn't she amazing Love her art alot

[cnpf]

I love the opening of this video. There is something whimsical and magical about it.

[MrsJoSmith]

Love the fact you show your "mistakes" and have such a good outlook about them. I myself just view
each painting as a learning step (even if I did have a disaster with salt sticking to my painting, I just made glittery star from it) #makoficationsquad

[pinkynoble]

The metallic colors are beautiful. The feather would be an easy painting for me. Now I learned about putting a background color first. TFS.

[dianelangford]

What a very beautifully express philosophy about life's random disappointments. Thank you for sharing those insightful thoughts.

[Shesvii]

Thanks to Mako my shimmering and metallic paints now have a goal in life.

[Blissfulthings]

What a fun thing to do! I have all the supplies and a forecast for a rainy weekend! 🦄

[cassandrabriggs]

I discovered your channel a few months ago, and have learned so much! What I appreciate even more than the skills you teach, is your positive attitude of creative exploration, and the encouragement you give beginners to try new things and not be afraid of mistakes.

[patsyannriendeau]

So nice! You make it look so simple. But.... you are right! Practice and playing with new mediums is very important. Thank you so much!

[Emma-xhch]
