Hi everyone,
I thought that I would take the opportunity in this newsletter to explain about YouTube memberships. Many of you have subscribed to my YouTube channel and that is free and I really appreciate that you have done this. However, YouTube encourages its creators to offer memberships to anyone that wants to pay monthly, to get extra benefits from the channel and so this is something that I am now offering. You can find out more details about it here – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnH-UarZwm-_7dJuuHBaVMQ/join
I did not want my non-members to miss out though, so I am just offering early access to some videos, to members. This means that they will get some of my videos early and non-members will have to wait a while (usually up to a few weeks) before they can access them. This way no one misses out, which is something that was very important to me when setting this up. It gives members a little bonus but means that everyone still gets to see everything eventually. For me this seemed the fairest way to set it up and I will never feel comfortable with charging people for video access which is why I am trying it this way. If you have any comments or questions, please do reply to this email so I can explain things. If I get lots of questions, I will address them in my next newsletter.
I have been having fun colouring lots of new pictures as you can see above, as well as making new videos for you. The pictures above (from left to right) are from Wildlife Wonders by Millie Marotta, Night Garden by RJ Hampson and Atlas Botanica. You will see all my completed pictures for the month in my 1st July video, so keep a look out for that!
I have also made a whole series from a Klara Markova free download page for you and this will start on 28th June for every afternoon until 26th July! There will be a huge compilation video for members to get early access to these coming out soon, but otherwise everyone will be able to watch a short video each day. After this series ends there will be a selection of video ‘shorts’ in the afternoons. These are speed colouring videos of one item under a minute each. They are videos I have released previously, just sped up and I will try to remember to put a link to the real time video in the description, so you can find it if you would like to colour along. I have done this as these were very quick to make and I need to get some quick videos made ready for when my kitchen work starts as it is likely the builders will be too noisy to allow me to record in the day. It has been estimated they will be here for six weeks!
I have also started on a new Ivy and the Inky Butterfly series completing the right hand page, to a page that I have already done for you. This will be coming out in July. Before that there will be a few single pages including my first watercolour pencil attempt on video and some planner pages.
I do hope that you are all having fun with your own colouring projects. Thank you all for your ongoing support, it means a lot.
Happy Colouring,
