I’m sure I’ve said it before, and I’ll keep saying it… your videos bring me so much joy and inspiration. I truly appreciate your realness, and the way you openly talk about your feelings and motivations around your artworks. 🥰💕✨
thank youuu!! :')
Something about the beginning to mid stages of an artwork is just so full of personality 💥
right I love that look
Agreed!!
Literally stuffing my face with lunch 😅
I work as an engineer and the little bit of peace I get during my days are watching your videos or podcasts. I get to live my creative side vicariously through you. Often times I work on different experiments in creepy sub-basements (usually alone) so I just pop in my earbuds and listen to your podcasts. They make me feel not so alone, so thank you! Killin it as usual
The piano music over the farm painting was really gr8
there's something about watching you paint with oil pastels and seeing them glide like that, that it makes me wanna try them again even though they were my nemesis back in art class hah
Love all the MTG content with the ratssss haha, and the music you played while painting in the end made me want to cry😭 so goood🧡
I have to say that sometimes I find it hard to watch long videos but with your videos I just never get bored, it brings me so much peace that I always end up watching till the end 🥰 I also have to say that those little conversations you have with james are so cute haha he seems to be such a golden retriever type
James voice over, I can't hahahahahahahaha I wasn't ready or prepared
HAHAH I love it so much
“Phew, now a word from our sponsor” lol he did such a great job
I'm teaching an art class while watching this video. My students love the quiet and cozy vibes while they work on their pieces!
I just enjoy how much you are experimenting these days. It’s still so “you” but also new!!!! I love the lil devils!
The part where you mentioned having a weird relationship with painting now that it’s been your job I FEEL THAT. Not only because it’s a job but because you have to show it and feel like it all has to be sellable. It really interferes with the creative process. It’s something I’ve been trying to nurture too and wish there was a group of artist that this could be discussed about and support for one another. When I don’t document/film/ photograph the process it gets better. Also staying offline too has helped. Sometimes I think I have made painting a habit again and then I drop it and go back to sketching or digital illustrations
Following your directions at 1:05:
I am lying on the floor with a blanket in the dark all sweaty while I watch this video. I just finished a grueling aerobics workout and this is my little reward.
I’m watching your video as a comfort treat while I work ❤
I'm so glad!
what i'm doing while watching? taking a break from my day job and working on my own shop orders lol
I’m tidying up my desk to get ready to sketching for a while and then plan my week ahead 😊
Love to see the return of the dance at the start. I'm about to start my sketch for my 365 day challenge day 321 and today it's elderberries. So much art in this vlog - you are a real inspiration. Toadie snores adding to the art vibe.
Man I've been in a real art funk for MONTHS but seeing you paint always inspires me and makes me happy :-))
I'm currently working on a textile wall sculpture while watching your video I love making art while watching others make art!
I am usually watching while I am drinking some tea at night or getting ready for my day in the morning with my coffee 😄
i just love james’s magic the gathering thing hahaha :) beautiful video as always it was super comfy cozy
I really appreciate the Herb Ellis jazz that's been sneaking into the vlogs
While I was watching this video I was journaling my day in my stalogy. I usually either journal in silence or let my watch later playlist go in the background. The vibes are so nice with your videos though.
I have 100% figured outfinally after 36 Years that all my highs and lows with creativity are related to my cycle. Now I plan
things appropriately around my cycle . I know that would probably be difficult to do When it's your bread and butter but It's worth
some thought . Also I totally loved your painting of the vase with the pink underpainting as it was with first layer like you did. Feels like it holds move emotions with those loose brush strokes and the underpainting coming through
I literally work from home for a marketing agency and your videos are on auto play in the background as I work. I'm learning so much from you! I love your vlogs, they're so soothing and aesthetically pleasing to have playing.
I would usually be working on Etsy orders while watching video's, but feeling under the weather...so just lounging on the couch. Just found you today! Love your work and calm videos.
I am eating my first bowl of caldo de res of the fall season while watching 😌 the vibes are 🌟💫💞🐛✨
I am crocheting a mustard color coffee cozy for my friend Jordan while watching this video. I discovered your channel a couple months ago and I love it. Came for the art, stayed for the dancing.
the vibes are off the charts 📈
I wanna use PASTELS more but I'm afraid of storing them and smudging the hell out of them lol
Ditto. They’re all leaning on the wall individually rn. Waiting to be ruined sos someone help
Started at your very first vlog and am so close to being caught up! I may or may not have been watching them constantly for like 2 weeks now. Happy to be a new puppy patron as well!
my first videos are so horrible i'm proud of you for making it here!!!
I disagree! I’ve enjoyed every video. Super inspiring to see your growth though! I’ve gotten back into creating art ❤
Grumpy painting is still a great painting by Leigh 💕Also I love James' ad for Pela, I chuckled when I was watching it.
I’m currently folding laundry while watching this ✨
Im crocheting, I love watching your videos and being inspired the fancy artzy things that go on.
I just got my print and sticker today and I also just cannot with how cute and perfect they are!! Oh and James doing the ad voiceover is the best. I dont know why but seeing/hearing him is always hilarious! As always, your videos and well, everything you do, just rocks 😊
I crochet while watching, but sometimes I watch on break at work. Right now I'm crocheting
Absolutely LOVE the farm animal painting you did at the end! Would love that on my wall. ❤😍
I'm very tediously scoring lines in a load of tiny pieces of card to make little books atm, but your video made it slightly more interesting 😁
Really great vid. I was folding my laundry but got so distracted by the farm painting it’s so cute 🐓
I usually do laundry or art while I watch your videos!! you bring me so much creative inspiration, I love it!! plus your art is just 😙👌 chefs kiss*
Yay! Thank you!
love the branch and the flower buds on your painting, keep it up :) looks beautiful
i’m doing a bit of drawing (for the first time in a whiiiiile) as i watch your video! holed up in a cafe with a drink while its all cloudy and windy outside. v nice ☺️
I’m eating lunch at work while watching today :•) usually I watch when I first wake up to give my morning a nice atmosphere!
The painting at the bottom shot at 17:04 is SO beautiful. The amount of times I said "SO GOOD/BEAUTIFUL" while you were making it. Wonderful video as always Leigh!
Bath time ❤ after work time. Helps me unwind and fills me with inspiration ❤
I'm organizing and cleaning my work space. These videos make me feel like I have a coworking space lol
Thanks for keeping me company as I make an activity book for my 3 year old ❤
i watched the sunset through the window of my job, still a few minutes left before I had to endure the hour of traffic to my house where a warm plate of rice and steak waited for me on the table. I’m enjoying this meal now and giving you 90% of my attention, the other 10% is focused on making sure I don’t choke and petting my dog when he passes by to beg for a bite. looking forward to the chill vibes. ❤
Crocheting dog bandanas for my coworkers Christmas presents while watching. I work in animal care so there are a lot of beautiful little dog children to crochet bandanas for and I appreciate having this video as company
The cemetery golf cart zipping around 😂
eating my breakfast before work, watching while my stinking dog lays in the sun. thanks for the lovely vlog 💖
usually i draw or paint while watching - today i'm just hanging out drinking my water
love your art and it's inspiring me to learn to do still life and landscapes!
currently rearranging my bedroom art studio after seeing how beautiful yours was!! XD
your flower pot paintings are amazing! i also like the idea of sticking your art on the walls. i really need to do that with my drawings too.
I watch your videos on my lunch break at work. They reeeeeally help put me in a good mood and puts my mind at ease and reminds me of my goals
i'm watching this while eating lunch (fries and oven-roasted bell peppers!) and trying to relax a little before selling at a christmas fair tomorrow. thanks for the company!
While i watch this i am knitting and drinking coffee & water, watching a snowstorm :-)
Your videos are always so comforting to watch, and always motivate me to start drawing again! I love how honest and open you always are with these videos 💕
I watched while guillotining prints in prep for an art market! :) I like using these vids sort of like visual podcasts + to keep me in the arty headspace
I really love your content, Leigh. It's like hanging out with a super chill friend while we make art together. I'm working on finishing the last couple pictures for my coloring book! I'm trying so hard to send it to the printer by Nov 30th. Wish me luck!
omg james doing the sponsorship!! what a welcome surprise
I am eating pancakes while watching your video... gearing up to go clean my studio. I always watch one of your videos for inspiration before I hit my studio! My partner loves the MTG coverage, he has boxes and boxes of cards!
love the farm painting! i would 100% buy a print of that ;)
Ahh lilstarnerd mentioned you and i was like oh i havent saw leigh post in a while... so i look up ur channel and here you are still posting! I assume your nktifications never came through even though i have the bell ticked, just glad i found your amazing videos again!! x♡x
im sorting out my books while i watch this. i love your art
I'm drawing a birthday present for my best friend while watching this :)
I love watching your videos as I plan my stationery business. It's great inspiration and motivation to see a small artist business make it!!
I feel like keeping up with videos such as this has really helped me prepare for selling my own work, it kinda gave me an idea of how the behind the scenes aspects of professional art production goes. This years my first attempt at selling art so fingers crossed it goes well 🤞 I’ll be watching a lot more art vlogs now lol
I’m assembling earrings for a big market this weekend! Your videos always get me through the long studio days 🥲💖
i totally feel what you're saying about being a painter and wanting to be a painter and not just a sketchbook person. nothing wrong with the sketchbook person vibe. i think we're all here for a good sketchbook time any time. but i definitely feel the same way about wanting to be more into my painting and wanting to be ALSO less scared about it. i feel so intimidated about starting a painting - especially on canvas - because what if it's not shareable??? the only way i'm managing to get through this - even at the slug pace that i'm actually getting through it all - is to just do it anyway. ya never know if you don't try it out. and maybe it WILL be nice enough/to our standards enough to share. but we have to do it to find out. HOW AWFUL HAHA. actually crying.
I love how chill this studio vlog was! I also love the farm painting!! That’d be lovely as a print :^)
I love the first plant painting you did. I would buy that. The raw movements of the brush strokes are so nice ☺ 3:33
I am illustrating a piece for my job while enjoying your video :) You inspire me to be a full time artist
I love the green wave sweater!! Peace and love back. Great farm painting.
the oil pastels of the flowers are so tasty! Just love the colors and texture
Just lying down in bed after coming back from work. Always looking forward to your videos because i find them so soothing💕
Ahh I just love your vlogs. The trees are so beautiful, where I live the trees don’t change because it never gets that cold :( but its cool to be able to watch it through vlogs :)
I must say that James’s voiceover was really nice and I hope Pela loved it like we did!
so glad to have found your channel! this video is so inspiring, i literally paused and went on to do something artsy. i've been having the longest art block. can't wait to binge on your videos and do more art. thank you so much! 🥰💖
I LOVE your videos Leigh! I'm currently watching while I eat my breakfast before going to work. Hi and love all the way from New Zealand! Xx I have to go to work now but I will watch the rest when I get home. ✌💖
This isn't exactly the same as fulfilling the postcard tier, but recently I was working on a piece and it was a piece I sort of knew would never see the light of day, i.e. I wouldn't share it on social. But I simultaneously didn't want to work on it while I also really wanted to finish it, but ALSO also wouldn't allow myself to start any new art until it was finished. It ended up taking almost a week because I was also busy working on other non-art projects. It was really annoying, but I just couldn't help myself from finishing it before I started anything else. And it would just sit there staring at me in my studio.
I love watching your videos while I am either filling in my journals, or working on my own art. A very nice and calm background to work to :)
Obsessed with the farm painting. This video was just such a treat.
I like to watch your videos before going to sleep 😴 so calm and peaceful
when i moved to portland for school i started a note of places with almond/oat milk i didn’t like since the way i explored the city was to draw in a different coffee shop each time i wanted coffee outside. it got to a point where i just have every milk brand i’ve tried and my thoughts lmao
We’re the same
I draw while I listen to your videos ❤ I’m home alone most part of the day when my husband doesn’t work from home, so you keep me company lol.
I paint while watching you work good luck!
Big fan of staying spooky during November 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Love ur vlogs! Watching them to find inspiration and get into the right mood for drawing. It always works! Thank you for that❤
I am eating lunch while watching your video. A great way to take a break from work. 😀
I’m eating raviolis for lunch while my baby is napping. Happy to be here! Hehe
painted my nails orange and sparkly while watching this :3 such a nice vlog as always Leigh! ⭐️🤎🤎
i just moved and I finally have all of the wall space to display all of the patreon postcards i have been collecting! it's time to get some big boi prints
Hello from Michigan -- small tourist town on Great Lake Huron --from a small fish a couple miles and a lifetime from lakefront property --Love your work and your vibe
Love watching paintings.
your vids bring me so much inspiration and joy it makes me want to work on my own art while i watch :)
Love the energy of all your videos, so chill, feel like I'm just vibing with a friend! Also I'm decoupaging a tiny wooden box while watching, never done it before so wish me luck ｡◕‿◕｡
Love the vlog
Love the content you put out. You’re someone I watch/listen to in order to keep calm and recenter myself.
What a chill and comforting vlog! Can’t wait for your shop update!
Hi Leigh! I’m walking around my house rn (getting my steps in) and just watching your video while I also cook pasta. It’s a good day today and this video made it even better :)
Normally I watch your videos while I work on my own art things, but today, it’s while waking up from a much needed nap and having dinner
Currently working on a GCSE art project whilst watching this video. My exams are coming up so this is defo motivating me ❤
