    “remember that you are still an artist, even when you don’t make art” makes me feel so much better ahhh! I’ve been in an art block for so long now and feel like I’ve just been doing crafts to fill the void. I needed that

      i find myself not doing art or not finishing pieces because I don't see a vision of what I want it to look like as a final piece. I'm too self-critical at the ugly phase of a piece. Seeing you carve out time for art and fighting to not give up on your art despite being self-critical is very awe-inspiring. Gives me hope that one day I can too. Your videos are grounded and real. Keep up the great content.

    Your experience for the first day is so telling. In the daytime, it was like "oh I'm going to sit down and make art", and it probably puts a subtle yet present subconscious pressure to create in that way. I realize now that I do this to myself all the time. Yet, when you were chilling in bed at nighttime, you happened upon something you found interesting/provided inspiration, and the art that flowed out of you then was more spontaneous and "organic", in a sense.
    I also feel inspired to create and have generally higher energy at night! That's when the spontaneous shit happens.

    Yay! I love seeing you dabble in other art projects! I have a tip for linocut! Always cut away from you, never towards yourself (I’ve had many booboo’s) and hold the tool overhand with your finger above the base of the blade so it’s easier to guide and get more precise cuts! 😊 Happy Printing!

    This was so entertaining to watch!!! One thing about polymer clay you need to keep in mind is that if you are doing it in the oven you also bake in, you should air it out until the smell is really gone as the fumes are hella toxic

    Just a little tip for the lino-cut printing, use a THICK piece of glass or an acrylic sheet to roll out the ink on first, it wont absorb the ink and means you will get a more even coat of ink on your roller :)

    I love the way you will try anything - you don't have that inner censor that I have that tells me not to do something for one reason or another - good for you! - but I did just volunteer to make a collage for the local library children's room and I have NO IDEA what I'm doing - but the more I get into it, the more I like it - and finally, you are so down to earth - no art jargon and stuff - I loved the "Rolly rolly roll" line - that's exactly what it is! - and now, back to my collage ....

    love your channel-- i dont believe in coincidences. maybe ducks are your spirit animal for a reason:
    "Ducks are especially interesting in that they are creatures who are comfortable in all the material realms; Earth, Sky and Sea.
    The Triad, being the number of the whole as it contains the beginning, a middle and an end. The power of three is universal and is the tripartide nature of the world as heaven, earth, and waters. It is human as body, soul and spirit.
    Indo-European mythologies represented the diverse fields of application of the divine power by endowing the gods with three heads. Hinduism recognizes the trimūrti, a figure with three faces on the same head, representing Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva; in other words, the creating, preserving, and destroying power of the divine One."
