I started this channel to keep friends and family updated on my van life and whereabouts. Since then it has evolved and developed into setting the goal for myself to paint all 50 states. The big finish will be with the publication of my book of landscape paintings along my journey.

I have sketched for most of my life but in 2017 I picked up a paint brush. I have not looked back. I astonish myself every time I paint with what I can accomplish and what there is to learn. I have entered what I feel is the best art school for me...the school of experience. I enjoy learning something new everyday. I wish to share this experience with all of you.
I look forward to continuing to share my joy in the journey!
Thank you for joining me on my quest to live my best creative life❤

Ode to Kettle Top| 10 paintings of this beautiful mountain range 🥰
I love Cannon Beach. Those are some great shots.
Very pretty views!
I have pictures of the leaning trees😁
Aren't they just wonderful? There's just something so special about their shape and direction 😍
@TheInappropriateArtist yeah they were definitely interesting and picture worthy 😁
I was at Canon Beach in September.. fortunately there was parking
❤ did you see the swan in the cloud formation, 28:23
I'll have to look when I have access to a larger screen😮
@TheInappropriateArtist that would be a great pic for you to sketch then paint it's a natural looking cloud of a swan 🦢
Jealousy, ... pissed off that they aren't you
I appreciate you. Thank you
I was at Canon Beach last month. It was gorgeous
I'm editing my Oregon coast video now. Tune in next week!
do you ever get all the way over to Georgia?
I was in Georgia back in 2020. I stayed in the national Forest not far from Springer Mountain on my way South and then on my way back North I went to the coast and got to have a little mini adventure on Jekyll Island!
Praying you get more stable living arrangements/income...
Thank you. I would truly appreciate more income 😁
Your artwork is fantastic. It's just tough competition out there.
fun
Thanks!
Head to Alaska, there is more open areas for you to camp at.
You may have missed the part that I'm in an uninsulated van 😂 and I have bald tires so won't be heading to Alaska until I can solve those things. But I do look forward to going when I can
@@Post-i5t just remember, the official state bird of Alaska is…the mosquito! Take lots of repellents
Thanks for sharing the murals, it was neat seeing the progress and the variety of art. Congrats on hitting 500! I have 2, lol. I want to start creating blog style videos, currently all my videos are just flip throughs to show my journals.
It really started as a way of letting friends and family know that I was safe and sound. Blog style videos are tough to edit. However you do learn an awful lot about yourself when you do it 😂
Wow! 500 subscribers is amazing! You go!!! :)
Yes, thank you🎉
Did you make it to Tacoma? Maybe you could circle back to port Townsend next
Oh this is back in July. I am hoping that when I go up to do Alaska that I will have the opportunity to spend more time on the Olympic peninsula exploring
Well, I just think you would make an excellent traveling companion. Love your attitude and that sweet voice! Your. Kitty seems OK too lol
I couldn't help but laugh at the end of your video when you said, "You mu st be a rock lover if you made it this far." So true! We love rocks ....and so much more!
Oh I love that you love the rocks and so much more! I definitely geeked out on my these latest acquisitions. I cracked myself up watching back how excited I was. When I'm in it I'm really in it 🤣
Such a treat to watch you. Please do some more rock hunting.
❤Oh my gosh, I drive for a company out of monroe wa Wonder if I passed you,. ❤ also i have a coworker that totally runs a business of gems,and rocks his name is Tom and he works with me,. Bty...❤
Oh really 🤔
Yes, I loved this video I had property just up the road from where you were in Baring along the river and it had fools gold flakes, but had to move due to the river shifting,. But as for Tom he works with me and is a huge artist of artifacts,.
@@MarcyR-c2v I'm glad I was able to share this with you! Right now I am in Arizona and next summer I am heading East. Hopefully. I won't be back to the pnw probably until the following summer... But who knows because plans are always changing.
I grabbed a bunch of perfect painting rocks in Rufus Oregon
Oh I wish you could put pictures. If you post on Instagram and are willing, please share your Instagram in the comments so I can follow you
That's really cool place. Ty for sharing this video with all of us here. Hello from Hillsdale Michigan
It really was spectacular and a real gift to get to stay there
Alternator sits on top, easy if no tow truck. I’m in Sandy.
I appreciate that but Sandy's 6 hours away. The shop I'm trying to get to is only 20 miles away. It's just that I can't safely climb these mountains without it just shutting off on me
@@TheInappropriateArtist semi retired truck driver,driving is second nature. Before I got lazy and drove truck, worked as a mechanic. Like helping people with the uncle vibe. ☺️
@@crockettslate I appreciate that. Thank you!
Wish you could have spent some time here in Port Townsend. Please come back sometime.
Me too and I do hope to be back there sooner than later!
I’d love to see more of your art and hear That sweet voice!
This part of the planet is OhSo special. I'm a Canuck who snuck across the border when so many Americans were sneaking across in the opposite direction (haha). Don't get me wrong, I legally own my property at the south end of Whatcom Lake and also own similar in Canada as well. I consider myself very fortunate because kids today will never know or understand true freedom.
I love that purple Victorian too!! Purple is my favorite color 💜
They really did a beautiful job painting it
@@TheInappropriateArtist yes, definitely!
Nice guitar skills! nice vid! glad you are happy!
Thank you, thank you!
I adore victorian houses. I plan to try to trim out my business with some victorian trim and paint it fun like that. I'm glad you were able to find the van community to help you out!
It's all the little details to highlight with paint. That's what makes it so much fun. I look forward to seeing what you do
nice too see you having fun you go girl
Marion! GET AWAY FROM THE EDGE!!! lol That was terrifying for me, it was like I was standing there, ha! Heights never used to bother me but they do now and I have no idea why. It was a beautiful view though, watching the kelp float in the water. I'm with you on the rocks. I have such a great collection from my travels before. Well, had, I left them behind when I split up with my ex a year ago. Too large to put in the rv. So I'll just have to start my collection anew. And smaller. 😃 Boat life has always intrigued me and I was torn between pursuing it and bus life. Bus life won for now but who knows, a few years down the road, I may find myself on a narrowboat in the UK. Oooooh, that drive/hike to those falls was spectacular! Thanks for sharing your adventures.
🤣🤣🤣 I was actually holding the camera out away from my body and my friend was holding on to me. I was actually pretty far from the edge but still felt like I was going to go over. I, however did not wish to miss the opportunity and I'm glad I did it for the sake of the kelp!
my sister lives there, so glad you got to see it. beautiful country we have here. so glad you got to see it.
Me too! I am definitely missing the cool ocean breezes now that I am in central California 🫠
Hi from eastern North Carolina! All that scenery looks so beautiful, especially Deception Pass!
Hello Eastern North Carolina! I caught some definitely cool images of the bridge and I look forward to painting when I get back to New Mexico.
@@TheInappropriateArtist that’s great!! My late aunt used to live in New Mexico (Chama). She owned and operated a horse ranch and was a taxidermist.
lol..I thought that branch was a dear...i like the vid!
It's fun to see all the possibilities! I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Beautiful !! Thanks for the share. I would have had a hard time not searching the beaches for rocks and things. Off to try and focus on my 2023 taxes. Have fun and safe travels. Hugs to you and Nugs. D
The van has a slight list because of all the rocks I've collect 🤣. Like I said in the video I might have a problem
@@TheInappropriateArtist LOL.... remember that I LOVE LUCY episode... ??? Trailer full of rocks couldn't make a hill and slid backward.... Poor Ricky...lol
@@okdk7 🤣🤣🤣
People get really offended if you don't choose to continue struggling in the societal way. The same people who argue that you would be fine if you only lived in a sticks & bricks and had a 'real' job would also yell at you and tell you that you're lazy if you DID live in a s&b but were unable to get a job, or find a job that could support you. I honestly don't understand why they get so upset by it. Other people have said it's because they are jealous that there are those of us who dare buck the system and carve out our own bit of happiness because they are too scared to do it themselves. It's sad really but I personally would rather struggle to make my own way than to go back living in a house and having a soul sucking job that doesn't all me to balance my needs as an autistic person who also has adhd. I still work outside my own business but I have cut back to just a few days a week and the change has been so uplifting for my soul. All that to say, keep carving out your niche, you will thrive and piss the naysayers off even more as they stew in their jealousy.
I love you! Thank you so much! I feel so heard and seen by you! 🥰🥰🥰
Hello! Welcome to the off roads of the pacific northwest! Somtimes (usually) steep, often VERY chuck holy, drop offs on at least one side and yep...very much wagon trail vibes. 😂 That plant you asked about is called Horsetail. Keep embracing your adventurous life. I can't wait to see some of your paintings from this area.❤ I'm born and raised PNW and of all the places I've been....the PNW is my heart and soul. Hubby and I once took a train from James street station in Seattle to Washington DC and back! Seen a lot of country, but still love home❤ Safe travels! Toni
The train adventure sounds fabulous! Thank you so much for identifying the Horsetail. I knew if I put it out there someone would have the answer! I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos and following along. Thank you! Thank you!
Blinkers, that’s great strictly, strictly a back east term.
My Connecticut is showing 😂
❤Hello you are in my area,wa, this is a gorgeous area from the bottom to the top ❤,love your channel but I must let you know it is hard to hear you at times, and that tree looks like it may have been hit with lightning ,.❤
Is this hard to hear thing a common thread throughout all my videos or just in this one in particular? I did realize after I posted that there was a whole section where I forgot to increase the volume on the voiceover.
@TheInappropriateArtist yes it is spots but mostly when you look away from the camera but also not sure if you have a fuzzy microphone they really help and your voice is soft but mostly it sounds like your far away. 🙂
@@MarcyR-c2v I will look into getting one of those little wireless mics. I don't really have the budget at the moment but who knows what the future brings. And maybe now that the request has been made, the universe will provide what I need. Thank you so much for the helpful suggestion 😃
@TheInappropriateArtist Absolutely and you are in my neck of the woods well Seattle but more in the town of Stanwood, I would love to travel I tried but was way to scared.
@@MarcyR-c2v I can say there definitely are times when the fear Factor is pretty intense. However, I have way more joyful experiences than I do fearful ones. I'm grateful that I didn't think too much about it and just jumped in the van and went.
Thanks Artist. A place called "She Who Watches" The Washington side of the gorge. Looking south. An ancient petroglyph. Worth a look. The "pink ladies" are fire weed. I learned in Oregon. To call it Pearly Ever Lasting. Fireworks is how the Eagle Fire started a few years ago. I was a long time Rv'er and job camper. In Oregon. I once worked at a place called, Cascade - Siskiyous National Monument. A beautiful place in SW Oregon. My second year there. A woman. Called herself, artist in residence. I spoke with her. Gave her the tour.
As a lifelong Oregon resident. The Columbia River Gorge is awesome. Oregon has falls all over the state. Don't forget to visit Sam Hill. What the Sam Hill. A real place.
Wow! Thank you for all of this!! I will be back to Oregon as I have fallen in love with the state. I will definitely be pinning Sam Hill on my map!
I wish I had some words of wisdom to help you in your dilemma- I will be praying for you!
Thank you Hannah!
Fun video 😁
Awww...LoLo Pass❤ Haven't been there in years and years! I think the wildflowers comnig into bloom starting with a C..might be Columbine? They are soo pretty and come in several different colors. I know the back pain...ugh!! I also have moderate arthritis in my knees...both of them..ugh! I am a school bus driver for a living and have been doing it for 17 years and I love my job, but all that driving has actually wreaked havoc on my aging body. And...just a thought...but when you get some funds together you might want to see about finding some school districts that might be surplusing some of their vehicles. You might be able to pick up a more suitable van for really cheap! And typically, they've been well maintained and are often good to go. Worth a shot anyway. Well..good luck on your travels. I wish I could helpl you out more but my life got flipped on it's lid and I've been working on getting myself uprighted. Always an adventure this life we live. Not sure where you are but my email is nakiskasnook@yahoo.com if you are near, maybe we can hook up for a good chat and art time. 😊 Toni
Awwww....too bad you couldn't get into Multnomah falls...thats the one where the parking lot was sooo utterly full. Its pretty iconic and has a full visitors center. The 2nd falls you showed was Pony tail falls and years ago I took my boys there and found that the trail took you back underneath the cliff behind the falls. It was soo cool!. I did a little watercolor of part the path going into the falls. Not sure where you are now, but if you get a chance to go over highway 20 to Washington Pass...I HIGHLY recommend it! It's one of my favorite spots to picnic at the look out. Before you head up to highway 20, take the highway 530 route to Darrington and stop and paint Whitehorse Mountain. 😊 There are soo many spectacular places here in the PNW I can't even begin to list them all. Oh...and the ""pink ladies" you were talking to....they are Fireweed. LOL Thanks for sharing your travels. I didn't get to go anywhere this summer. Hopeful to hit up my favorite spots next year. Safe Travels!! Toni
This is the struggle and it's real. Unfortunately, I'm no longer in Washington and this video was around the 4th of July. For safety reasons I have to post videos that are behind me so I don't get to get the information in time to visit these wonderful places you are suggesting. I will mark my map so that when I come back to the pnw, because I will, these are places I can check out! Thank you! Thank you for the suggestions and thank you so much for following along!
Beautiful shots !! Too funny Nugget assisting with breakfast. LOL... Thanks for the share , safe travels.
Why, Thank you madam. I do appreciate it! Yes, nugget believes that she is a top chef and that I should be giving up the chore to her. However, she has not quite figured out how to open the can by herself, so my opposable thumbs are still needed at this time 🤣
@@TheInappropriateArtist I still remember her little face when she first adopted you. 🥰
I just happened to stumble upon your video. I think I keard you say that you were traveling along the "Columbus River Hwy." Respectfully, it is the Colombia River Hwy. I am from Southern Oregon and have traveled up in that neck of the woods several times. I have also been to a few of these waterfalls but not all. I just wanted to correct that it is Colombia River Falls. Thanks for sharing.
Oh thank you! Thank you!! I do my best and struggle with not wording well. I usually catch it in the edit and type it out on the screen. I appreciate that you caught it and corrected me 😁
Bummer missed , UMPQUA HOT SPRINGS INAPPROPRIATE SOAKN POOL. LOL
Wow, what a gorgeous area! And that deer! 🥰
That little deer stopped by just about everyday 😃
That’s a painting …that’s a painting … that’s a painting 😅
My brain sees it and my mouth says it 😂
How did they build that bridge at crooked river? and that view of the mountain across the lake is awesome! Nice video!
And we've always found bridge building to be a phenomenal feat. There's an amazing fee campground that boarded Trillium Lake just below Mount Hood. They were right off the path we were on.
Great video as usual. I think you’re the Most unique and stunning human I have ever come across. Your smile is contagious. I understand your back pain I have DDD and sometimes it’s almost unbearable. Hope you get to feeling better soon!
I appreciate you following along. And thank you. Little by slowly the back is feeling better these days.
I found the other van video person I was trying to share with you in W. Seattle. "Static CamperVan" on UA-cam. There is one video called "an Olympic Day". He gives a lot of tips of where to go, what to eat and coffee shops. Thank you for sharing these galleries and artists!! Thanks for sharing these beautiful places. Your enthusiasm is great! I also love Montana.
Thank you! Thank you for the information. I will definitely look them up. It was wonderful to get to chat with you and so happy that you are coming along for the ride!
You always amaze me... Well done.
Thank you. This is never an easy thing to do. I'm pretty sure I deleted somewhere around 30 to 35 takes
