- I paint my dogs basking in the glow of the firelight. This sketch was made using Liquitex Acrylic Gouache on cotton paper. I also discuss the process behind repairing my wood-stove.

Full quote attributed to Vincent Van Gogh seen at beginning of video:
"Someone has a great fire in his soul, and nobody stops to warm themselves at it, and passers-by see nothing but a little smoke and then go on their way."
-From Vincent Van Gogh's letter to this brother Theo Van Gogh (1880).
There are about a million variations of this quote, perhaps due to differences in translation over the decades. Some versions seem to have been streamlined for Instagrammable (is this a word? haha) captions. The version I used comes from a post by the Vincent Van Gogh Museum in the Netherlands. I assume they know what they are talking about, so I defer to them :)
Documentary about Jackson Pollock & Teri Horton mentioned in video:
Who the #$&% is Jackson Pollock? (2006)

You really captured the warmth and vibe you were looking for perfectly, Natasha. Great info on the engineering of fireplaces too. I always enjoy when you have a new video up, you have such a wonderful approach to the way you create art, and it's really cool to hear your thoughts when creating.
