I struggle with the way my voice has sounded my whole life, and like you mentioned in a past video, can’t rewatch a video after it’s posted and done. I say this because today I found you and watched several of your videos and have felt so much at peace and thoughtful after hearing your voice all day. Your magic comes through your words, your beautiful artwork, your kind spirit in the way you answer questions and the music you choose to play. The way you describe the world is like listening to a novel. Thank you for creating. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Isn’t it amazing that no matter how old we all get we are constantly searching for our own identity and who we are as artists or as human beings. And when we think we know, life shines more light into the dark undiscovered corners of our selves and we find out that we are even more complex and more beautifully created. That’s when we discover those around us and how they affect us by changing and molding ourselves into more amazing individuals. God is never done working in our lives.
You my lady are a work of art yourself ! Your beauty and creativity is effortless. And it's not a wonder, with the beautiful backyard you have to play in ! Glad you're feeling better and thank you for sharing your journey. You've been an inspiration for many I'm sure of it! Big love and hugs to everyone!
I love the way you express yourself. I'd love to share with you...I did a monoprint workshop and I loved it. Felt like a kid playing and was pleased with the results x
As I’ve gotten older I feel I’ve become more of a rebel. I refuse to give up on beauty, truth, and all that is right. I feel that is the battle! Live in the light! 🌞🌻
The place I feel most myself is the Isle of Iona. I first visited when I was 8, and again when I was 15. It has been 45 years since I was there, but it is the place my heart loves most, even though an ocean separates me from it.
Beautiful video,and congrats on becoming a Grandmother!Thank You to you and James for sharing your trip to the castle and seeing those wonderful ancient trees!!!
What an epic video. I am not sure why it made me emotional..will figure that out in a bit. Your and your self portraits are so beautiful. I love that you have a partner who complements you so well.
Wendy, Your comments at the end of this video about what you learned on your journey meant so much to me I kept listening and re-listening until I was able to note your words in my own journal Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart!! The honest and raw love you show for nature, creatures and people is awe inspiring. God Bless you.
It’s a great way to take break from art works to just enjoy the day. I like tour of arts, history and scenery. When you come back to your studio you been inspired to do art of what you saw from tour days. Love it. Cheers 😎😎😎❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥
thank you Wendy for the gentle reminder to love and look after one's self ,i look forward to your vids they give so much peace ,so glad you are feeling better,love always xxxx
Congratulations on becoming a grandmother! Thank you for bringing an awareness to the miracles of self awareness a chronic illness can bring about. I did not realize that is what is happening with me. The push to stay the same person I was before until it knocked me down. Since the knock down I’ve rebuilt according to my energy at the time. It’s really strange how being older and having less has brought an awareness to the parts of me I neglected and tried to hide during my younger years.
So lovely you are with your soft voice and accepting nature 💕 All my life, I have drawn castles and princesses even though I grew up in California, where there aren't any. Sometimes, I feel like I have lived in a castle in a past life or two. And it seems to me you are here now, but a piece of you belongs to the past. So much so that it is hard to be of this world. That's where art is so rewarding to our souls. Enjoy your granddaughter. It is a chance to see life a new. Warm hugs 🫂 🤗 💖
I truly love the outings you take together!❤James playing each and every cord of that log-looking xylophone😂, you telling of not being able to scale the waist high wall, your attention to detail in painting and making us a companion on your beautiful outings…..💚TY
Having my coffee half a world away with the Wendy Chronicles is a perfect way to start the day!! I’m a grandmother artist as well and so appreciate your deep dives into Self with the beautiful Dunster Castle as your trigger… thank you over and over again for Being Authentically You!!
Such beautiful pages you created in your art journal. 🖌️I always love watching your process but this one feels extra special! 💛 Congratulations to you and the family on the new arrival of a baby girl. A true joy these little ones are to the world and to our own journeys. ✨ Much love and many blessings to you and James. 🙏
I just love the way you dress, the outfit at 0:22 is perfect! I've missed your videos and am glad I resubscribed. You are so blessed to have close family, not many of us do. I most enjoy the shots where you show your studio and your home space, don't stop doing those!
What an absolutely gorgeous castle and grounds, where is it again? , its beautiful. Lovely video, love your painting, what a lovely way to remember a moment in time. You look beautiful.
Look after yourself, hope you’re feeling better soon. I too became a grandmother earlier in the year. Sending positive vibes ✨. She lives on the other side of the world and I’m grateful to you for your tips on journaling, as I plan to journal my life’s thoughts and lessons … for Sophia 💫🧚✨
Thank you Wendy for this video. It was lovely. The castle was very intriguing and you looked so cute in that bonnet. Congratulations on becoming a grandmother. It happened to me 9years ago and she is the light of my life. We have done art together and both enjoy it. Take care dear and.. Keep on keeping on!!❤
Very interesting. What resonated with me was your comment re choosing our life experience and then battling badly with it. ((My friend is doing this) Instead of embracing the experience whether bad or good and learning the lesson from it. I too am an artist, and have the mental time to analyse stuff. Health issues too. Maybe it's pointing me to rest. Anyway I love your channel and am sorry u feel u don't have friends. I think if u look u will find many. X
What wonderful news! Something so beautiful as the birth of a new soul on Earth, a new explorer of life. I am sure that you will have so much to teach and learn on that road. A third gorgeous star has lit up in the sky. I wish you all so much love and happiness.
I knew this vid was going to be a good one so I saved it until I had time to enjoy it. I loved it. It seems you live the life all artists would love to have.
A beautiful soulful video. Thank you for bravely sharing your thoughts and experiences it helps others who are struggling too. My heartfelt congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter. My dear granddaughter is 6 years old now and I really believe she saved my life. In moments of darkness I picture her face and know I must be strong and work my way back to the light.we make art together and have a wonderful connection. It is our duty to share wisdom with the next generation. Unconditionally and lovingly. I hope your health is good now. We never truly know our own strength until we are tested. Sending you much love and strength 🙏🏻💐✨🫶🏻🎨
Congratulations! You have Earth mother energy all the way through. You will make the perfect grandmother! Such a lucky girl she is. Will she be calling you 'Grandma' or something else?
Congratulations Granny Wendy! I enjoyed your art process in this video very much. Even more than that, thank you for taking me back to Dunster Castle again, for a better look around where one line of my ancestors lived for a few centuries. To return to the UK and explore some more, including Dunster, is a cherished dream of mine. I'm glad you are feeling better.
These have been the best pages I've watched you create. Layers that enhance but not completely cover. Seeing this wonderful building and its landscape around it, it is indeed a magical environment. So many stories that we can now only guess at. Thank you both for sharing your day with us, the wider world .
I especially enjoyed the section where you speak of the power of creativity, a reflection of inner self. Viewing nature usually brings the most profound "metaphor of the inner workings of my mind". Your bright words mean a lot to me. With this video, I am back to my artwork and journaling! Thanks.
Love the castle you visited it is beautiful stunning art work as you rarely see things like that anymore the tapestries and so forth. Fantastic video thank you so much for sharing ❤❤❤❤ I am also not very well at the moment and I too was reminded to take a leap of faith in a sense, like stepping stones you take your time with each step otherwise you will trip up so can fully empathise with this video 😊😊😊😊
This is wonderfully beautiful 4 generations. Your daughters baby has her great grandma 👵 not many get to see their grandparents. Grateful that my daughters got to see their great gramother before her passing and they can remember her too. 😊 Not over 50 yet nor 50 yet either but I'm a young grandma too its just divine it is. 😊
This is a great way to journal… art sketches of the self progressing and pressing on through difficult times into the light of beautiful beginnings! I love this video! Its perfect timing for me right now, as im on a healing journey. Have you ever listened to Joe dispenza? For me im combining scripture and his teachings.. great medicine!! And so is your video!❤🌸
Congrats on the granddaughter ❤ I found being a grandmother to be an entirely different experience from motherhood. It’s wonderful in so many ways! The love I’ve experienced is so deep and wide with joy and hilarious moments. It marks a new phase in the stages of life that gives life a wholeness, a completeness, a sort of immortality. Kisses to all of you - including your mother who is now great grandmother!
When I lived in Mexico, I would visit the churches and cathedrals where I felt such an integration of myself and the outer world, I went to a little village called Putum, the town seemed deserted I went up a hill to the little church it was surrounded in colorful crosses some so small. my heart ached for the babies that must have been buried in these small graves inside the church the statues were stunning clean and lovely in their gruesomeness. But the rest the benches and floors were crunchy with pigeon's feces. then all of a sudden the bells above rang out above me and played the most beautiful concert. When it was over I left out into the grave yard and then the town came alive and people were streaming out walking up the hill they came. I still feel the amazing energy of the place the people streaming colorful around me, the concert of the bells, the incongruent beautiful statues and then the pigeon feces. Sometimes I go there in my mind and feel the sense of being cleansed and somehow recalculated. I feel beautiful and ugly, new and old, alive and dead. Hum - thanks for reminding me of these sacred spaces.
Thank you for sharing your inner and outer journey, Wendy. I love the mill as my great grandfather was a Miller in West Cork. That 200 year old mill house is still inhabited.. I am on a healing journey after major surgery. Like you, in the depths of many sleepless nights, I have been on a journey of self discovery. Wishing you well. I love your art journalling. ❤❤🎉🎉
Finally got to listen and view your lovely video …beautiful music and sights to see and your wonderful person (James) and congrats on the g..baby… watching your videos takes me away from the ugliness of the world … beauty in nature is always the healing process…. Thanks Wendy you wonderful human!
Thank you for all that you share. I love your little day trips and watching you make art. I dreamt of fairies last night and I know it was because of you as I have never dreamt of them before in all of my 46/soon to be 47 years of life 😬😁 Your light is bright 💖🧚♀ Also Congrats on the new addition to the family! What a lovely gift.
I loved this video and the artwork you created within it. They are my favorite pieces I have seen you create so far. Each one tells a beautiful story and shows the change in you, a lightness reflected. I appreciate your storytelling and sharing your feelings and thoughts. I learn and see so much about myself while watching and listening to your story. Thank you for sharing and creating a warm and safe place! Most importantly, congratulation on becoming a grandmother! My best to you and your family.❤
Hi Wendy. Love this video! Love the outfit you wore in it and the fun 'field trip' you both took, and the inspiration you got from it. Love the journal pages.♥️ Congratulations on being a grandma! Isn't it Great! If you could, please share the names of the music tracks and bands you played on this video. Love them. Hope you're feeling better. ... You both always look so happy. ♥️🌷🎨☕️🫖
Congratulations on becoming a grandma. Holding you grand child for the first time brings a rush of feelings of when you held your child. Great feelings.
Just stunningly beautiful..wow. Thank you for taking us to this beautiful place...oh by the way.. congrats on becoming a granny!! Now the funn begins!! 😊 You will be a wonderful grandma...I love this video so much I am watching it again...thank you and lovely James...hope your feeling stronger soon.❤😊
"Every human being is a collection of selves. We never stay the same as we travel through life".... One of my favourite quotes & so I totALLy get your words 💕
Wendy, You and James have been a joy and pleasure to watch. Thank you so very much Dearest Wendy for sharing such a private , yet beautiful part of you. You are truly treasured more than you will ever know. Love, Lisa ❤🫶🏽❤️🦋…
I found you on TikTok and I’m so happy you’re on here too! Thank you for sharing these wonderful moments! You are living the dream and I will live it vicariously through you 🥰
Thank you for such a lovely video! 🥰The castle and it's grounds were so beautiful.😍The sea shore reminded me of my own Lake Michigan although with skyscrapers instead of castles. 🤭 I loved your reflections. My ME/CFS has had a lot of downs and ups these last 10 months which has sparked similar thoughts for me. This was so helpful and uplifting. 🥰Hugs and much love to you and James. 💜🤗🤗
Congratulations to you and your daughter for welcoming new life into your lives. ❤️ My favorite indoor space that reflects the way my mind works is either San Xavier Del Bac Mission, south of Tucson AZ, and also the Catholic Church of the Rock in Sedona AZ. And no, I'm not religious, I'm a witch, but these places were liminal before the Church became... Thank you, Wendy for inspiration, as always! ✨️ PS: this artwork today, of yourself, is my favorite so far. The swing of your hip, your braid, the cut of the vest just captures your essence, which is innocence, wisdom, authenticity, spiritedness, and truth. I dearly love you, Soul Sister, though we are strangers.
Thankyou for sharing your thoughts with us. You are courageous and I admire you. Im learning to create and to love myself enough to allow myself to create.💓
Watching you paint is special. Thank you for sharing. Glad you are feeling better. The castle footage was beautiful. Congratulations on the new grandbaby!
Such a powerful sharing, it is amazing when you declutter and rearrange how this also happens inside of us too. Many Blessings and thanks for your videos..xxx (actually Suzanne Macpherson)..xx
Thank you so much for taking us with you on your travels, but also allowing us to join you on your life journey as well. I feel we are learning so much together; thank you for sharing. Sending love, light, and healing energy your way. Your creativity is inspiring, as is your joy of life and your embracing simple pleasures (so important when illness hits or life becomes complicated). I always love your art journal pages, and appreciate being able to peek over your shoulder to see your explorations at times. These glimpses have allowed me to give myself permission to be braver in my art journal, and your videos have inspired me to get out and explore nature in my area more (sometimes it is worth putting in extra effort - to experience the magic all around us). Much love and gentle healing hugs 🤗🧡❤️
Gorgeous! Everything about this video. And CONGRATULATIONS, being grandma is the most wonderful love you'll ever feel. God bless. Please tell James hello. Have a fabulous evening. Sending love and big hugs Sherry 💚
A lovely video and I’m glad you’re feeling better. Also, congratulations on the birth of your first granddaughter. I have also become a grandmother for the first time, two weeks ago. Enjoy this new and wonderful chapter.
I’ve been wanting to do a youtube vlog of my art, my studio house, garden and life……. Thank you for giving me inspiration to do it… your tag on your Chanel is close to what I too want to weave together. I am stuck not starting but am definitely doing all the things… just not the vlog of them! In the meantime I’ll watch you all! ❤
The little girl will treasure you Wendy darling congratulations you are sooo lovely Wendy 😊 thanks for sharing the beautiful places in this video the Beautiful journaling and your voice😊
Absolutely love the metaphor of the castle as Self-the layers and layers also much like your beautiful works of art. The rich tapestry of life a work in progress ❤
Beautiful Wendy! Your videos get better and better every time! Loved this, one of my favourite ares to visit, it made me quite emotional watching it. xx

Places do resonate where we have been or where we are heading. A snow scapes bluff in Wisconsin is not only sad and cold but refreshing and spectacular. Thank you for the reflective video.

Wendy - you are so lovely, with so much beauty and joy - I love your videos, and always wish I was there to give you a big hug!
♥🤗
Thank you for all that you share. I love your little day trips and watching you make art. I dreamt of fairies last night and I know it was because of you as I have never dreamt of them before in all of my 46/soon to be 47 years of life 😬😁 Your light is bright 💖🧚♀ Also Congrats on the new addition to the family! What a lovely gift.
So sorry for you being so poorly 💐 May you continue to get stronger and keep your light shining bright ! 💛x
Your words are as beautiful as your art.
I agree! I stopped the video so I could write down some Wendy quotes to ponder throughout the week. Inspiring and wise.
I absolutely love the narration on this video! So insightful.
Thank you for sharing your lovely journey through life 🌹
I loved this video and the artwork you created within it. They are my favorite pieces I have seen you create so far. Each one tells a beautiful story and shows the change in you, a lightness reflected. I appreciate your storytelling and sharing your feelings and thoughts. I learn and see so much about myself while watching and listening to your story. Thank you for sharing and creating a warm and safe place! Most importantly, congratulation on becoming a grandmother! My best to you and your family.❤
So Gorgeous this Vlog!❤ Thank you!
What a gorgeous video! I loved your reflections. Thank you!
thankyou so much, so glad you enjoyed it! xxx
Hi Wendy. Love this video! Love the outfit you wore in it and the fun 'field trip' you both took, and the inspiration you got from it. Love the journal pages.♥️ Congratulations on being a grandma! Isn't it Great!
If you could, please share the names of the music tracks and bands you played on this video. Love them. Hope you're feeling better.
... You both always look so happy. ♥️🌷🎨☕️🫖
Congratulations on becoming a grandma. Holding you grand child for the first time brings a rush of feelings of when you held your child. Great feelings.

I found you on TikTok and I’m so happy you’re on here too! Thank you for sharing these wonderful moments! You are living the dream and I will live it vicariously through you 🥰
Thank you for such a lovely video! 🥰The castle and it's grounds were so beautiful.😍The sea shore reminded me of my own Lake Michigan although with skyscrapers instead of castles. 🤭 I loved your reflections. My ME/CFS has had a lot of downs and ups these last 10 months which has sparked similar thoughts for me. This was so helpful and uplifting. 🥰Hugs and much love to you and James. 💜🤗🤗
thanks for sharing, it's helpful to know I'm not alone, big hugs to you too xxx
Oooh, fantastic video ❤ Love those two pages in your art journal... And at the end that inspiring sunset 😊
I truly think those are the most beautiful paintings you've ever done. I've been following for years.
You look incredible!!!! Thank you for a gorgeous video❤❤❤
Congratulations to you and your daughter for welcoming new life into your lives. ❤️
My favorite indoor space that reflects the way my mind works is either San Xavier Del Bac Mission, south of Tucson AZ, and also the Catholic Church of the Rock in Sedona AZ.
And no, I'm not religious, I'm a witch, but these places were liminal before the Church became...
Thank you, Wendy for inspiration, as always! ✨️
PS: this artwork today, of yourself, is my favorite so far. The swing of your hip, your braid, the cut of the vest just captures your essence, which is innocence, wisdom, authenticity, spiritedness, and truth.
I dearly love you, Soul Sister, though we are strangers.
A grandmother - how lovely!!
oh thankyou indeed it is magical!! xxx
Thankyou for sharing your thoughts with us. You are courageous and I admire you. Im learning to create and to love myself enough to allow myself to create.💓
Watching you paint is special. Thank you for sharing. Glad you are feeling better. The castle footage was beautiful. Congratulations on the new grandbaby!
Congratulations on your new grand baby! How exciting! A lovely and relaxing video. Loved your journal pages. Glad you are feeling better.
thankyou so much xxx
Wendy, I hope this message finds you well and happy for you and James... I watch your videos every day . Abundant Blessings, 🎉my friend😊
Congratulations!! You’ll make a magical Granny………free spirit that you are… x
Every thing is so beautiful and authentic. Your spirit and honestly keep me positive, we got this :)
Such a powerful sharing, it is amazing when you declutter and rearrange how this also happens inside of us too. Many Blessings and thanks for your videos..xxx (actually Suzanne Macpherson)..xx
Thank you so much for taking us with you on your travels, but also allowing us to join you on your life journey as well. I feel we are learning so much together; thank you for sharing. Sending love, light, and healing energy your way. Your creativity is inspiring, as is your joy of life and your embracing simple pleasures (so important when illness hits or life becomes complicated). I always love your art journal pages, and appreciate being able to peek over your shoulder to see your explorations at times. These glimpses have allowed me to give myself permission to be braver in my art journal, and your videos have inspired me to get out and explore nature in my area more (sometimes it is worth putting in extra effort - to experience the magic all around us). Much love and gentle healing hugs 🤗🧡❤️
Gorgeous! Everything about this video. And CONGRATULATIONS, being grandma is the most wonderful love you'll ever feel. God bless. Please tell James hello. Have a fabulous evening. Sending love and big hugs Sherry 💚

A lovely video and I’m glad you’re feeling better. Also, congratulations on the birth of your first granddaughter. I have also become a grandmother for the first time, two weeks ago. Enjoy this new and wonderful chapter.

I’ve been wanting to do a youtube vlog of my art, my studio house, garden and life…….

@@theunexpectedgypsy Yes, they are.
Places do resonate where we have been or where we are heading. A snow scapes bluff in Wisconsin is not only sad and cold but refreshing and spectacular. Thank you for the reflective video.
