Love reading your posts and updates. Really looking forward to the Spell songs event, wow, what a setting that will be. We had tickets for this year and last so fingers crossed we can get to a live concert in the future.The paints sound fab. Hard to choose a favourite colour but Yellow or Red are always at the top of my list :)

This is gorgeous. I'm excited to follow Deep Deep Light - there insta photos are beautiful.

My favorite color is purple, all kinds of purple - big and bold and royal, soft and sweet and lavender. Interesting yours are blues, which can tend to indicate creativity and communication, along with those calming energies.

Light and love.

I used to be firmly in the blue camp, but lately deep rusty red has begun to appeal to me. I want to thank you and your lovely books for reawakening my urge to create.

posted 6th February 2021

My favorite color is nature - the red of an English Robin, the green of a field, the yellow of a daffodil, the color of the sea. Thank you for the beautiful paintings you create.

posted 6th February 2021

Choosing a single colour is like choosing a favourite child or (in my case) favourite cat. It's cold and grey here today so I'm going to choose a foxy English Red because it looks warm and cosy.
Will spread the word and # on Facebook. So looking forward to this new book.

My favourite colour is blue - the blue of the sky, rather than the greeny turquoise of the sea

posted 6th February 2021

I've been looking at the winter birds colours- I think the shadowy blue in that set is my favourite. I've been painting sparrows, wrens, goldfinches, blue tits and long tailed tits over the past few weeks to try and help my mental health during lockdown - I'm enjoying finding the colours and shapes of these familiar friends.

posted 6th February 2021

Oh however can you choose a favorite color??? I love the light pink at sunrise, the green of the ocean, the yellow of a sunflower, the brown of the soil. But I will settle on the deep blue of the sky after sunset with the tree trunks inky black.

I have always loved blues, as well as the emerging green shades of early spring, and saturated plum colors.

These look absolutely LOVELY... and the foxes are gorgeous... I have been trying to think of a really lovely present for my friend Sam who is a designer and paints a lot... he designed the ballet that I was making for Birmingham Royal Ballet... and also an adaptation of Fox and the Star (Coralie Bickford Msitjs beautiful picture book...) and when we were in the studio he would just start painting ideas, forms and pictures... I bet he’d love these.. but which colour?!? Blimey that’s tough... I agree the blue looks gorgeous... we called the piece Lazuli Sky trying to find that amazing blue amd this looks pretty flipping close to it..... sending all the best... wxxx

The deep, deep green of my cats eyes. They hold the darkness of secrets from his past life before he knew my name, the warmth of kindness within his gentle soul and a love that shines far brighter than any precious jewel.

Green is my favorite color, all shades! The grey-greens of lichen, the deep greens of forests at duck, the pale greens of new apples, the blue-greens of oceans, the yellow-greens of spring grass, the powdery greens of verdigris...most of my wardrobe is green, and I work as a gardener which allows me to surround myself in it...
I love these images of your work space! I am also excited to see more foxes forthcoming. I've been following your work since the Three Ginger Cats blog.

What's my favourite colour? When I was a child it was red. I don't even know if it was my favourite, I just knew it was an answer that pleased grown-ups.

Now I enjoy the colours of earth, and red is sometimes one of those colours.

While I am a blue lover as well, the warm brown of the fox’s fur is so beautiful, I think I have to choose that color. Looking forward to this book and the upcoming ones! Please stay safe, everyone.

Lapis for me! I adore Deep Deep Light’s paints, which I discovered via Jackie, and have just bought my daughter some. I love their passion and ethos, and it’s so wonderful to see Jackie working with them. A great partnership.

posted 6th February 2021

Definitely following and sharing... My favourite colour changes with my moods and my needs. The fox is my spirit animal, I feel, so I would probably choose his colour right now. But at other times, I might choose a cool turquoise or a vivid purple..

posted 6th February 2021

I am always drawn to blues and greens, calming and invigorating at the same time. The solstice fern green is my colour. Strangely this year I have been drawn to the warm ochres and golds. I think they remind me of the safety of home. Adore your foxes, the creature that sits in my soul....

posted 6th February 2021

My favourite colour is yellow. My bedroom walls are dark yellow and when the sun shines (it doesn't happen very often nowadays) through the curtains in the morning, it just makes me happy. It gives me warm fuzzys.

posted 6th February 2021

My favourite colour is Autumn. I love the changing colours of the leaves - reds, russets, golds. I love the bare dark bark of the trees. I love the treasure that can be found under foot - rich shiny conkers, golden sycamore wings and acorns. It is the season that awakens my senses and quietens the disruption that is all around.

posted 6th February 2021

Once again a beautiful update and my oh my those paints. I’m always drawn to the blues and a few greens that run and dance together to form teals a beautiful landscape for a dash of russet from a fox. I follow all the accounts and have now put the paints on my wish list.

posted 6th February 2021

Lovely update - quite impossible to choose a favourite colour but its often the blue of the sky either the blue patch in a stormy sky (today's blue) or the deep blue as the sun sets at the end of day or the endless blue of the sky reflected in the sea. Very much looking forward to the NHM event!

posted 6th February 2021

I love the combination of these stunning colours and your art Jackie . They marry perfectly. I can almost smell and taste the colours as they touch the page. My colour? Has to be amber.

My favourite colour, at the moment, is Siena. I love the richness, as reflected in your fox paintings. These Deep Deep Light paints look fantastic and I am so tempted to purchase them xx

posted 6th February 2021

What magical paints! I didn't realise there was a maker of these on this side of the Atlantic. Now I covet them; I shall try and save up!

Jackie is making such beautiful things, and is so good at sharing others' magical things and makings too.

...happy sigh...

posted 6th February 2021

I think my favourite colour is green in all its many shades but to be truthful any of the autumn hues have my heart . Green gold reds and browns , yellows and purples in their richness . Colours of ancient woodlands , ploughed fields , rich fruitfulness .
I have admired your Deep Deep Light paints and love the richness of your painting with them . Winning this would be magical .

posted 6th February 2021

These are heavenly colours! Just looking at them is very soothing. I love Rūta's Dream, both for the name -which sounds like a story - and the colour, grey-purple...the colour of flowers which excite bees and butterflies. Playing with these paints would be fun!

My favourite colour is highly dangerous ( if not illegal )to make now.
Arsenic green. My nan had some dangerous wallpaper in the spare room.
My father wore his WW2 gas mask and a rubber suit to strip it. We all laughed at him at the time. The council weren't laughing when he got them to dispose of it.
My hub class could have a lot of fun with these paints. We always have fun with paint anyway.

posted 6th February 2021

Those paints are wonderful, so beautiful to look at. It's very difficult to pick a favourite colour, it changes for so many reasons. I think I just love to see colours in all their hues and beauty. At the moment, it's coppery, reddish earthy colours. I think I need to save and get some of these to play with, I shall be sharing far and wide.

posted 6th February 2021

Thank you for sharing! Deep Deep Light's Insta is gorgeous, and I was also delighted to follow Unbound, as I didn't think to do so earlier. It's so very hard to pick a favorite color. The question made me think of a beautiful sunrise I saw earlier this week. It started with a dusky blue and soft yellow, and then - as the sun kindled its way up over the horizon - burst into a brilliance of hot pink, bright yellow, and fierce orange. Stretching away from the sun's point of entry into the sky, the colors faded again, transitioning into a muted rose and then a deep heathered purple and finally a pale blue that hinted at the color that would eventually take over the whole sky. Each color was captivating in its own moment. I could hardly choose just one. :)

posted 6th February 2021

Those watercolour pans look beautiful- reminds me of my childhood paintings using my Dad’s watercolour pans paints whilst he would sit at his easel using oil paints. He would teach me how to look into colours to know how to create them using paints and so I would mix his paints for him ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Such happy memories. Miss him and my Mum (the green fingered one of the family) so much.

As for my favourite colour - it’s got to be that sea green you find near the coast. It’s almost like a green turquoise.

posted 6th February 2021

Thank you for sharing this. I have been looking at Deep Deep Light on Instagram, the watercolours look lovely. Choosing a favourite colour is a bit of a challenge and for me changes with the seasons. At the moment I’d have to choose green. The green of the woods when the sky is dark grey and the sun is shining.

posted 6th February 2021

I love receiving these updates on how things are progressing and I'm super excited about the release of east of the sun, west if the moon this autumn. I've followed both accounts on instagram and my favourite colour in tuff volcanic ash. I love deep reds and purples.

Blue, blue, hues of blue all the way... though having gone through this winter, bleak on all levels, green and gold are weirdly growing on me. That Juniper Shadow whispers of long walks among tall mountains, of trips to the Lake District. I'd love to see it paired with Partridge. Even the names of the paints read like poetry! Almost like one one of your books. And that leather bound artist set is gorgeous... I am in love.

But light greens and yellows (like maple tree's blossoms) are creeping in as I long for spring. Thanks for the chance in giveaway!

Wow I love your paintings and these watercolours look amazing! I have been enjoying the extra time lockdown has provided to sketch and improve my Watercolour skills. My favourite colour changes but I always have to have indigo.

posted 7th February 2021

I love talking about colours anyway, to share them with family members and friends - we describe them to each other during lockdown calls, as we cannot truly look at them together. A rich teal that cannot quite decide whether to be green or blue is my favourie colour.

posted 7th February 2021

As others have found, choosing a favourite colour is such a tricky task. All colours are a treasure, but I must say I am drawn to the deep mossy greens of the forest or the acidity of limey and ochre mosses and lichen on rock. Thank you for introducing us to your new paints, I’m also going to invest in some Deep Deep Light pans. You can feel the wild in them.

posted 7th February 2021

such a lovely update - so excited about this project. Very difficult to choose just one colour from the Deep Deep Light range, but indigo is calling me too.

posted 7th February 2021

I visited the Deep Deep Light website and fell in love with the Jay Blue and Juniper Shadow set. They are colours that speak to me of water and shade, deep pools and dark pines, but also something of Japanese art and possibility.

posted 7th February 2021

I have always loved blue, and wear it by preference. I often verge towards a turquoise blue, but lately teal has become more flattering on me. In my home I try very hard to be more adventurous with colour, but I always come back to calming green.

posted 7th February 2021

Green is my favorite color...I miss it in winter when it's hard to come by but not impossible. Moss, winter ferns, lichen, pine needles. Never have to be encouraged to share your work!

posted 7th February 2021

My current mood is Indigo for distant mountains, copper for wet landscapes and deep greens for tea leaves. Lemongrass scented paint sounds a true delight for the mind.

I love deep deep light watercolours, they look so beautiful. I would have to say Payne’s Grey is one of my favourites as I always like some of this moody colour but it varies. The deep deep light colours are so evocative though I can imagine lots would become favourites.

posted 7th February 2021

The foxes are beautiful- what a wonderful prize to offer. Looking outside on a snowy, bitterly cold day - the colour that stands out for me is Solstice Fern. A wonderful lush green - a hint of what is slowly about to unfurl.

posted 7th February 2021

My favourite colour was my hair, aged about 16.

Now I love my front room but think the colours aren’t what I see (I’m colourblind in some shades of natural colours. I think it’s between dust and cocoa, and a couple of odd greens).

The colour of my boots is called ‘cigar’ but I thought “who’d smoke a grey cigar!”. I’ve since been told they are brown.

I like night skies when you can see oily rainbows near the moon.

posted 7th February 2021

I love this work and can really see the difference between the deep deep light paints and the ones you normally work with. I love the textures they create!
My favourite colour at the moment is Payne’s Grey and I can’t imagine working without it right now.
Good luck with the Spell Songs. I cried my way through the entirety of the performance in Manchester, in a February that seems a lifetime ago, not just two years!

The book will be amazing, and I would love to add it to your other books already settling in here in my home. Also supported the new project and can't wait to receive that book now! My favorite color changes - but blues and greens are always there. In spring, it's the tender green of new leaves, summer is the bright yellow slash of the Goldfinch, autumn is the rich blue that the sky deepens to as the heat passes, and winter is the rich browns of the landscape, & the hawks hunting. It's too hard to pick just one.

posted 7th February 2021

I love all the projects you are doing to support the arts, to protect the planet. Thank you. Many years ago I first saw your paintings in St David’s cathedral in Wales. I feel in love them and have remained a fan ever since. I think the rich red calls to me from across the paints. Maybe it reminds me of one of the ladies I remember from that exhibition years ago. I’m sure there was one had a rich red capes as she walked in the snow with a big white bear. Or maybe it just feels warm and velvety, a place I could hide from grief and feel warm. It’s been a tough old year but colours can make all the difference. Thank you

I looked at DeepDeepLight's watercolours after seeing your Instagram post the other week, they are utterly gorgeous and I was thinking of getting some for my dad to try (William Tillyer). How to choose a favourite colour? For me (if I ever get my muse back!) the Solstice Green or French Indigo but I'd also love to try the Caput Mortum because my dad once told me he thought it was the colour of the fells/moors in winter - wet dead bracken, sleeping heather and the distant hill tops.
Lots of love from Cumbria x

posted 8th February 2021

I’m loving the layers of reds in your foxes there. For me, the colour to look at and love has to be luscious deep red velvet just after I’ve stroked it the wrong way - but somehow my painting keeps going back to that singing blue of the low western sky just before dusk settles. Thanks for opening this door.

Choosing a favorite color is like choosing a favorite child. I have a favorite but if I say it out loud the others might feel bad and get jealous. If I had to pick though, it would be indigo. Something about it just has my heart and I still find myself drawn to it no matter how many I own

I am in love with these beautiful paints! They seem to grow and become more than colour on the page, no doubt also thanks to your glorious watercolour paintings. I do love blue lapis, and indeed any blues found in the sea or sky, both unfathomable. I would love to learn to know these paints.

posted 8th February 2021

I am another in love with blues (there seem to be many of us). One of my daily delights, now that I live near the sea, is watching the colours change on the water against the sky; so many varied shades, not always blue of course!

A lovely post, full of so much happy news. I'm excited for the new book - as well as the new copies of my favourite 'East of the Sun...' and 'Wild Swans'.
The paints look stunning. They look so otherwordly.
My favourite colour changes with my mood. I think overall it's all the shades of purple - but blue is so soothing so I return to it when I need peace.
I named my dogs after blue colours - Indigo and Lapis Lazuli. My dyslexia glasses are indigo coloured too.
Interesting to know which paints you usually use, am I allowed to ask which brushes you recommend?

What a lovely approach to a giveaway! I loved the winding, secret steps it took to get here and the beautiful things I discovered along the way. Thank you

My favourite colour is indigo. I love the depth of it. The darkness of it, and the beautiful glow of it, almost like sun shining through water - soft in the middle and dark and heavy on the edges.

posted 9th February 2021

This is such a lovely giveaway. If I had to pick a colour, it would have to be indigo.

posted 9th February 2021

Wow! Lovely foxes and story, it made to love my first meeting with your work! Before meeting your foxes I made new friends with deep deep light watercolours. Their colours are what I was searching for - a reflection of nature and my desires...
My favourite colour always has been red and it's shades are also shifting, now it is somewhere between red wine and purple...

posted 9th February 2021

I used to be all blues and purples, but now I find it is the deep forest greens and earthy reds that draw me. I'm no watercolour artist, but I do harbour a secret fantasy of stepping out, Beatrix Potter-like in long tweed skirt and sturdy button-up boots, to wander over hill and dale with my paintbox under my arm, and a hound at my side...though I expect my lovely lurcher/bitzer/staghound/roo-dog/who-knows-dog, Fergus, would just chase Peter Rabbit and all his family away!

Happily shared on FB.

I don't want to choose! They are all so lovely.
Thanks for turning me on to these beautiful paints. If I force myself I will choose Night Raspberry, I love a nice grey to drop into other colours to mute them and make all the washes work better together.
I saw your beautiful work in Dunster, 18 months ago, it was a beautiful, unexpected treat!

Hi Jackie, gorgeous as always. I am a printmaker based in cornwall. A good friend gave me some raw-pigments to work with and Burnt Sienna had the most beautiful, deep quality to it. There is something so special bout the earth tones, especially when sat next to watery blue hues. Love your work, magical as always. Best wishes, Jen x

I love the blues, but out of the colours on this palette, all shining from water, I like the very middle one.

posted 10th February 2021

I have a soft spot for the blues; the cold blue of a winter's sky, the startling intensity of lapis lazuli, the fleeting flash of a kingfisher, but also all colours of nature: the russet red of a fox, and the cheerful red of a robin's breast, the green of the first leaves of spring and the yellow of daffodils.

posted 10th February 2021

I cannot wait to see this new book it will hold such wild magic! A favourite colour? Autumnal damson,plum and grape,deep burgundy and rich russets that all sing when twisted through with deep gold. Then there are the greens, woodland shades of olive, green-gold, lichen, deep moss, soft new ferns and vibrant new spring leaves dappled by golden sunlight.

posted 10th February 2021

I don't know how to pick one color. I will have to just say any of the infinite combinations of blue and yellow. I can see why you teamed up with Deep Deep Light. I felt like I fell down the rabbit hole when I visited their Instagram. It's magical.

Oh, the foxes! Your foxes and hares have always been my very favorite of your works (I hope you don't mind, but I've got them tattooed on me!). My favorite colors as a child were always blue and green, but they've sort of merged into my current favorite of teal.

How to choose a favourite colour?! So difficult. Torn between French Ultramarine and Burnt Sienna, but I will go with Burnt Sienna, the colour of fox! Beautiful work Jackie Morris and gorgeous looking paints I would love to use!

Such wonderful looking colours, and such sensitive and beautiful paintings. My favourite colour would be cobalt ultramarine. The cobalt blues were always a favourite of my Nana Pat, who was an accomplished watercolourist, and it is very much a significant colour of the New Zealand summer I am experiencing now. Both good reasons to love it!

posted 11th February 2021

I love every yellow variation that exists! I never liked to paint or draw because I wasn’t “good” at it. My daughter and I tried watercolors as a distraction from anxiety a few months ago. We found that we are better than we thought.

I go for almost daily walks in the Sherbrooke forest in Victoria, Australia. There are lyre birds, kookaburra, rosella as well as little yellow-breastfed Robins and as assortment of wrens. I've started picking up feathers. Sometimes you find in a feather, a band of teal, rather like the Juniper Green. That is jostling out my favourite colours, although Cobalt and Indigo are up there as well. But, really - how to choose? Yesterday came home with a kookaburra feather, beautiful brown and cream, warm as bread. What to do with these feathers?

I love the color yellow. It's so cheery. I never really wear yellow, but I always feel a sense of happiness when I see it.

I literally fell in love with Deep Deep Light watercolors too! My favorites are Mother Earth grey, Rūta's dream, Night raspberry, Rose ashes, and Juniper shadow. Can't choose only one! Since I got them, I barely use my Daniel Smiths anymore. The colors are so magical, changing all the time, unpredictable and rich. I also love DDL values and that's why I am happy to work with them.

Colour makes my autistic heart race. I can get quite overwhelmed in a flower shop, or a yarn shop, or an art shop....

Picking a single colour would make me really sad. I just can't pick one. Does that disqualify me? I can say that I love 'burnt' colours - oranges, reds, greens, blues, browns, yellows.... but I can't choose one. They & I would hate that.

I've had a fox appear in my garden several times the last few weeks. I always swoon a bit when I see it appear, I just have such a mad love for them. :) Choosing a favorite color feels a bit like choosing a favorite song! I can say I am drawn to cool tones, purples and blues, silvers and greys, forest-y greens. Shared this post on FB followed on Insta, and now crossing my fingers and toes for luck!

I have shared this post on Facebook and will happily talk with two artist friends of mine. Thank you.

For me any colour comes to life when it is zinging next to another colour. Its all about contrast, dark and light, warm and cold, soft and hard. Today I'm really enjoying the wintery landscapes and the deep inky dark grey blues against light almost white with a hint of warmth from a barely there yellow.
I'm loving the feast of colour and texture coming from gorgeous paper and rich deep deep paint in the gifted hands of Jackie..

Blue. But not just any blue, and not only one blue. I used to dream, as a girl, of a dress that went from a silver blue to a blue green in the light, something you might see in a reflection, on the ocean. But also, that deep, deep blue near dark, so deep it is almost night, or at the edge of dawn, moving from infinite to finite in the sky.

I am likewise mesmerized by the deep deep light watercolours and will surely give in to temptation...

Green is always my colour, but I dance between the green that's nearly blue of the sea as it sinks downwards into clear deep waters over pebbles, the translucent green of the western sky after the sun's dropped below the horizon but before the light has left it completely, and leaves in all their millions of different shades of tree type or age of leaves. Green.

Those paints are so beautiful! And the foxes are just gorgeous.
My favourite colour fluctuates so often. For years it was a deep, royal purple. But these days I prefer a warm, mustard yellow. Sometimes it's even burnt orange, or the colour of terracotta. But mostly it's the yellow. I feel warmth & joy when I look at it. I think that's why sunflowers are my favourite plant too!

posted 13th February 2021

Ultramarine is the colour I love. I close my eyes and imagine being bathed in that blue light. I love your painting Jackie, I sit and look, and look, and look again. Immersive

posted 13th February 2021

There are so many colors I love. It changes with the light and my mood. But when it comes to watercolor paints I'm deeply in love with Schmincke's Paynes Grey Blue Shade (they have two Paynes Greys). It's a beautiful muted blue that works so well with earth tones and natural greens.

posted 13th February 2021

My favourite colours is the eye colour of the Little Black Cormorant (Phalacrocorax sulcirostris), a beautiful shade of blue green

posted 13th February 2021

My favourite colour is green, all shades on all things - leaves, feathers, rolling hills. Your paintings are beautiful, they lift my spirits and my spirits really need lifting

posted 13th February 2021

My favourite colour is terracotta - like the coat of a fox, brick, fallen leaves, tiles in summer heat, just washed. I think it's one of those colours that is taken a little for granted. I'm loving the paintings you've shared with us, Jackie Morris - and what lovely comments here. Carry them in your heart for those difficult days with no colour. As a fellow artist, I understand.

posted 13th February 2021

I love all the colours but there’s a certain shade of green shot through with yellow, reminiscent of a Christmas light or cellophane wrapping from a chocolate held up to the light that still strikes my heart with a pain that is joy, many decades later.

posted 13th February 2021

My favourite colour is perhaps black... it seems to be a mixture of them all. Although I also have a liking for greens of all kinds. It is so inspiring to see these works- how truly magical x

A walk in magical welsh woods reminded me that my favourite colour is green, especially the green of the lush lichen covered rocks of the woods.The green of the jungle or an emerald shimmering humming bird.Lush green treetops, grass, leaves.olives...So many wonderful shades of green!Thank you for your wonderful posts.

Hi Jackie I've always shared your lovely books so I'd love to be lucky this time. My favourite colour is turquoise. As the light catches the tip of a translucent wave blue. X

I love the glowy pink of the Sanger de Cristo mountains in New Mexico. You can see this color in the evenings during sunset. The color is just magical!

Love your work! Love your foxes! Want to smell and use these paints! My favourites are the greens, loved green all the 73 years of my life, it is all around us here in East Devon. Sent Lost Words and Spell Songs to Grandchildren in Melbourne and New York, they love these books! X

My favourite colour moves from deep indigo blue to lapis and forest green. I love your foxes.

posted 13th February 2021

The fox paintings are beautiful and full of spirit... Deep deep light sound like a wonderful artisan company and I would be intrigued to try their paints... My favourite colour has to be turquiose in all it's mysterious shades, flowing from pale pale twilight skies into the rich malachite of verdigree hues... I try to use it in all my paintings... This has been the year when I finally broke free of my creative paralysis and started creating again with beautiful tools and beautiful materials... It's tentative but feels good to re-kindle the spark.

Love it all but my favourite colour is blue...,

So gorgeous, I can't wait to dive in. Green for me - all shades. Thank you.

posted 13th February 2021

Beautiful work. Deep deep nature connection. Dived heart-first into both Lost Words and Spell Songs and scattered them liberally amongst friends and family. The colours speak to my own practice of making and mark making with natural inks from materials collected on coast and woodland walks. They are all deeply delicious but I'll go with the granular colours as they behave similarly to my inks - Juniper Shadow right now...

posted 13th February 2021

Such beautiful worlds to get lost in, images, words and songs to transport me. Blue is my colour- from the midnight sky to a summers day, from icy seas to the darkest lake.
I would love the scent of those gorgeous paints to inspire my days more.

posted 13th February 2021

Such lovely insight and awakening of what truly is, nature that surrounds us and is what we are. Color awakens my heart and sound and words add to the joy. Turquoise blue and it’s shadings to green sing to me as they are seen in my favorite snorkeling lagoon and play with the sky whose blues adjust their mood. Love the fox and it’s red earth warmth, too.

posted 13th February 2021

What a beautiful giveaway. The favourite colour is very easy for me. Without a doubt - purple. Deep Cadbury’s purple. I love it so much I even had it on my wedding dress!

posted 13th February 2021

This is such a gorgeous giveaway. My favroite colour is definitely misty blue, the kind that sits on the sea surf on a dusky day. I've been saving up for a set of deep deep light watercolours ever since I saw them on your page because all of their colours are beautiful.

posted 13th February 2021

Beautiful project. Gorgeous paints. (I know what to ask for my birthday). Always been drawn to blues of every shade.

Such beautiful foxes filling up the book. My favourite colour is blue. It can be the glorious blue sky of a cold, sunny winter day, the sparkling blue of the ocean, the midnight blue of a clear night sky filled with stars, just blue, any blue.

My favourite colour is teal, but I also adore burgundy, which goes well with teal. The rich jewel colours. :)

My favourite colour is Rose and Juniper...just beautiful combination, sounds like a perfect gin tipple too.
Jackie, your frozen feathers are looking sublime. I walked through a field of seagull feathers today and thought of you.

So much Beauty here. Looking forward to the Natural History Museum event. I love the golden tones of Ochre. I see Deep Deep Lights have a shade called Golden Ochre. I am intrigued by their Solstice Fern. I can almost smell it! Sharing this on Facebook. Thankyou for spreading beauty and awareness of Nature.

How to choose a favourite colour? An impossible task!So choosing a hue to reflect today.
A Blackbird’s eye seeking respite from the icy East wind. The point where snow filled clouds touch the sea. The silhouette of a bare branched Oak etched on the frozen snow. Indigo then. Deep dark Indigo

What a fabulous giveaway. I've been a fan of Jackie's work for many years.

The colours are all beautiful. Difficult to pick just one. I'm usually a blues person but the Greens are divine so I'll settle on them.

I came for the giveaway but got lost in the lovely conversation here, good luck to all and thank you for a lovely opportunity to win this lovely prize.

Those foxes are just getting better & better - could curl up beside them or go walking with them - just perfect!
I’d love to try watercolour & these paints look awesome - perfect for taking out & about - wonderful design & covetable!
I’d have to go for blue as my favourite colour - denim shades & indigo dyes from India! So calming & relaxing.
That book is going to be a unique & exquisite treasure.

Love your foxes, I feel they are our wild. I've followed your posts on insta and they have been deeply connecting during this time. Over Xmas your books were beloved gifts.
I'm so happy the work has flowed out through you and land in Pembrokeshire.
Thank you. I like the colour orange the rich colour of marmalade, just freshly made btw. The the belly laugh, head tipping colour of joy.

Got to be the golden ochre for me. Such a sharp, mustard-rich yellow.

What a fantastic competition! I love these foxes and I have started painting again since lockdown... my favourite colours at the moments are blues, lilacs and yellows. Dusk.

posted 13th February 2021

That's such a difficult question to answer and can change so quickly. I love the deep grey of storm clouds against the brilliant yellow of the rape as I drive over the hill on the way home. But that's one snippet of time. The inky blue of the sky after sunset is another favourite. Then this afternoon there was the red of the fat Robin trying the drink water out of a bucket.

posted 13th February 2021

Those paints look divine, I can only imagine how beautiful they must smell! Choosing a favourite colour is so tricky, mustard yellow, mossy green, tangy orange or a deep plum... I think if I'm pushed to choose just one it would have to be a greeny-blue turquoise like the cool, crystal clear Greek sea I swam in on my last holiday several years ago, those waters were so healing. Loving all the foxes and following the progress of the book, it's the first time I've done something like this and I'm really enjoying being a small part of it. This is such a wonderful prize, good luck everyone!

posted 13th February 2021

I will always adore the brightness of yellow. It’s radiance, it’s look at me attitude, it’s ability to offer hope in the darkest of times! Great to see the support for this project stretching so widely! Good luck in the competition all!

Your paintings are beautiful Jackie and so are the paints you use. Choosing a single favourite colour is hard - mine change all the time but right now I’m loving burnt sienna/ochre - it feels warm and happy and like the sun is beckoning us towards long days...

Blues and greens or somewhere in between - be it ultramarine, teal, jade, grass green or chartreuse.

I don't think I can choose just one favorite color. But that blue in the tin is glorious. I tend to be drawn to watery colors of blues and greens. Although, today, I am longing for bright vibrant colors as it is cold and dark outside.

I prefer the blue end of the spectrum, and of those shades my favourite is a deep imperial purple especially when it is set off by a mid yellow - not too sharp and not too buttery.

I’m loving the foxes and I have found myself looking forward to seeing them each day. The paints look beautiful and I really love the wonderful granulation on the paper - captivating. I can’t decide which colour I like best, this morning I am drawn to the Indian indigo, juniper shadow and always the cedar teal.

posted 14th February 2021

Lovely project! I love all colours, but like you, am always drawn to blue. My current fav is a type of blue green, the colour of the sea on a stormy day, just before the rain. Lifts my heart whenever I see it

I can't wait to see this book. Unwinding was beautiful. Silent Unwinding was a wonderful gift of space and calm. This new book seems to be poised to be something even more special. What a wonderful woman you are Jackie Morris.

I had a look at the painty people's Instagram. Beautiful, beautiful colours I think their juniper green sang to me the most. I am no great shakes as an artist so maybe I'll just paint my skin and hide in the forest.

I'm so glad I looked you up online after I watched a talk with you and Rob Macfarlane and so glad that even though online presence is probably not your thing, you're embracing it! I always go for blues, I do love the grey-blue colour of one of my sister's eyes, but today, in an effort to ward off the Valentine's pinks, I will opt for mustard as my colour. So grand to read of all the gifts that you and your clan are creating, love it.

Jackie - my friend has re-created a long tailed tit nest using moss and lichen, using a needle in place of a beak and gold thread in place of spiders webs and the colour, I realise, is so deeply touching as it's a dusky sea green teal, akin to a ruffle of faded lace and trimmings. If I was small enough, I'd want to sleep in that nest. Happy Sunday Jackie!

We had a lovely vixen who would visit us daily at our backdoor and my Maine Coon cat would get so exited to see her. She hasn’t been around for sometime and hope she is ok. My daughter is hoping to go to Writtle in September to take their Art & Design course and know between her and myself the watercolours set would get a lot of love. Thanks for the chance.
