Your bird paintings rock my world, Sandi! I can't get enough of them, and I can't get enough of your cheerful spirit and the JOY that comes from within you bubbling out. I am thankful to have the opportunity to "spend time with you" through your videos.
I really love this spread: the color palette, composition, the various birds, the mark making...
This is the most beautiful painting.
And by the way, I LOVE the effect that the pencil gives over the top of the paint. Your colour palette for this one is sublime as well.
I'm sooooo glad you like it - I love it too - I wish I could bring that effect into my oil paintings some how.
I loved your birds!
I love the incredible way that you get such detail with a loose hand. The nests might be my favorite element because they're so free.
Thank you Erika!
So relaxing to watch the birds come to life. Love the texture of the pencils on the paint.
Thank you so much 😀
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉 I love Birdies. Nostalgic moments..My mom had a Cockatiel white bird...She loved him. She named him Elvis. Lol.
Thank you!!! I want to try it all! You have helped me so much in my own approach to my art.
Catching up on some of your videos - I love your birds so much. The colored pencils on top are really effective, too.
Thank you!
Love the paint with me ❤
Your bird sketch is beautiful. I enjoyed the paint with me. I had seen this sketch in previous videos and thought "I would love to see how she did that"...now I know.
🤗
I absolutely love your birds (and your hair looks lovely in this video)!
Natasha thank you - that means a ton coming from a talented artist as yourself! Really appreciate it! And, thanks for the kind hair comment!!!
These are delicious! Thank you for sharing Sandi. So glad to hear the morning studio time is working too. You’re inspiring me to work up my sketch books more! The Flashe paint looks great and I love the thin paint brush marks in the background 👏
Ohhh Katherine THANK YOU! Man alive that makes my day to hear these vids are inspiring you to work in your sketchbook more - whoop whoop!!! Thank you so much for letting me know! AND thanks for watching!
Awesome birdies🦅
I've gone through similar boredom lulls with my project of drawing the human figure. Right around the point you are now, a couple months in, I was feeling like "this is gonna suck" but it got better. I still hit slow points if I'm not super excited about my reference images and I find that letting myself go down a rabbit hole of googling images online helps to reignite excitement when I see a photo from a particularly unique angle or color scheme. That's one thing I've discovered about myself is that my references and how I feel about them plays a huge part in my excitement to work.
I think it's the norm for us artists for sure! I DEFINITELY HAVE TO be excited about what I'm painting. But sometimes I do feel like I forgot how to paint - it's so weird! Thanks for watching Lyssa - I always appreciate your support!
❤
Beautiful
I love it!!!
Love Love Love your birds!
Oh I so love your birds!
Beautiful. You make it look so easy!
Loving your birds Sandi! I started a small sketchbook last year of just local birds.....I’m so inspired to get back to it and keep going! Thank you! 😁
Love this one! (and you look beautiful btw) I’m inspired to try both the flash paint/colored pencil combo and painting on a black background.
Ohhhh goodness - this made my day!!! So glad I could inspire you - that's top of the list of what I'm trying to do with these vids. And thanks for the compliment - was actually having a decent hair day for filming day - that doesn't usually happen :). Thank you for taking time to leave me such a nice comment - REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!
Good Painting Sandi...I enjoyed seeing the birds...
No, wait! Now THIS aid my favorite! 😍
Love love love the birds! 💛💛💛
Thank you ❤️
Beautiful
Santa fe NM is an artist paradise. You will love it. Have fun. Love those birds, will have to try.
Thank you! We had to cancel that trip because of COVID 😔
I really loved this paint with me and would love to see some more.
Ohhh, thank you Gaye! That's good to know - I always wonder if people get bored by this kind of video but I am learning that people want to see my process so I've been trying to pick up the camera more and let yall see and hear what I'm doing through a painting.
Found this video while looking for info about the Flashe vinyl colours. Loved it! Now off to watch some more. :)
Hey Josefina (love your name btw)! Welcome! Hope you enjoy the channel - I have lots of paintings on here where I use Flashe - and lots of other mediums - hope you enjoy.
I love this!!! 💓 So beautiful!
Thank you so much Tamara! 🥰
I LOVE these birds. You make it look so easy!
Thank you! I’ve been painting birds for a LONG time - you get better over time.
Awesome! Great job. ✌️
OHHHH - THANK YOU!!!
Ahhh...the pink!
Fabulous work, always enjoy your videos Sandi’
Thank you ❤️
painting birds. right up my alley!
I do love painting them too!
Loved this one. Thanks!
Thank you Jane!
Your birds are beautiful. Love these videos :)
Thank you very much!
Love your videos- you are so talented
Thank you ❤️
So good 🙌
Thank you!
Loooove the birds😍✌️
Thank you!
Super fun! I'm out in the garden with my Sibley Guide trying to be loose. Gratitude from southern Oregon.
It’s not easy so keep at it and have fun!
Can you share in a future video how you prep your blue/black backgrounds for gouache? I know you said it was a mixture of acrylic and gouache, but can you maybe take us through the paint mixing and application?
I was watching one of your more recent videos last night and it occurred to me that your style reminds me very much of stone lithographs. Then in this video you mention vintage posters which were often made with the stone litho method. I am very tempted to try flash paints now. You are a bad influence and a fabulous enabler.
Your comment cracked me up! Sorry about the bad influence 😂
@@sandihester like I need any help buying more art supplies! 🤣
Lovely work Sandi, I like colour pencils too. P.s. I liked the Grady impression too ! Im going to search for your trip video x
I’m so glad you liked the piece!
Delft blue is a Dutch colour from the Delft blue and white pottery. Xxx
😊🌸
I so relate to what you say. I just paint and they say that I can always compose but I go through hell trying to get my paintings the way I want them. I would like to take classes with you because you are my kind of artist. Please my art is on bluethumb that sells art in Australia. I recommend you sell in Australia vie bluethumb as they are really genuine guys. My name is Mary Ann Partridge. I would like a critique. I went to college in UK with Tessa Newcomb daughter of Mary Newcomb artist. But I never painted after that and took up painting three four years ago. So I have little skills and even I dont know how I knock them up. Really its a mystery. Have not sold anything but some people like my imagination. I have no discipline like you have. But I love your approach as I dont much like the Sergentson school where its so real and perfect. Even if I took the time to learn this I dont think I would want to. And im not keen on KMart art you see online.
Love the birds. When I turned your video on I laughed as I looked up and the tan part of your top I thought you were naked lol my strange brain as if you would be naked. Loved this video. Although I hate insta I’m following you. Much love Chris xx
Oh no 😂😂😂😂
I loved your video and your chit chat ❤️
Bethanya (I love your name btw!) thank you so much - I'm SOOOOOO glad you enjoyed it!
gourgeus
Thank you!
Sandi i have just received my first sketchbook and it is humongous (like yours), and I don't want to mess it up! But maybe i will start it out with some of your birds :-) and get the ball rolling. Love watching your demo videos. thank you so much
Ohhhhh, how fun Sarah!!! Totally get in the “I want to mess this baby up!” mode and play in there - it’s just paper! Mess it up! 🤗
@@sandihester i have :-( first page is a ' hot mess' quote/unquote.
@@sarahhopkins577 🤗🤗🤗way to go!
@@sandihester well, if messing up is the way forward then I am on the right path!
@@sarahhopkins577 😂😂😂 I’d say, if you’re not afraid to mess up - then you’re definitely on the right path!!
Photographing on a overcast day can sometimes help with black, at least that’s how I photograph my one cat, I’m assuming it would translate well to art too 😂🐈⬛
good tip Jen!
Sandi your painting is so satisfying to watch and your voice soothing! Also great job on the editing--you got the whole painting process captured in only 10 minutes and it looked so effortless! I really enjoyed this video and feel inspired to create today! When you paint, do you mix up most of you colors before you start so you have a set palette, or do you mix as you go along? I loved the colors of this painting!
Friend, you always leave me to most encouraging comments! I haven't watched your latest vid yet because Grady is going out of town soon and I'm saving all my favorite UA-cam vids to watch while he's gone - but I can't wait to see it!!!!! I'm so glad you felt inspired after this video - whoohooo! As far as mixing my paint - I ALWAYS mix as I go. I think the worse thing you can do is mix a big pile of paint - you get slight variations when you mix as you go which I LOVE.
@@sandihester I'm honored and hope it's worth the wait! 😍
You are my daily inspiration! Love your channel! I’m a birder and painter. I have lots of field guides. What reference books do you use?
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you are enjoying it! I just have some random $1 books I found at the used bookstore ages ago.
Did you ever make it to Santa Fe? I loved New Mexico. We rented a car and went from Albuquerque. It was so fun. We drove on "the singing road" and then took the Turquoise Trail Highway to stop and visit little things on the way like Tinker Town Museum. So weird, and quirky, and fun, and artsy. Then you'll pass through a little artist village. A town called Madrid. Its just quirky little galleries and restaurants. Santa Fe has a whole street lined with Galleries. So put your walking shoes on. I started at the bottom in Meyer Gallery to see some things specifically and then worked our way up. There is a really nice french restaurant in the area where we stopped one evening for just creme brulee but wished we had room to try more of the menu. There is plenty of New Mexican restaurants to try and they love their green chili sauce. You absolutely MUST visit the Meow Wolf Museum. And hopefully you haven't googled any spoilers about it already. You will be absolutely delighted. But I'm sure you've heard about that one already. My mind was completely blown. And even though I'm not a huge Georgia O'keeffe fan but i enjoyed seeing so much of her work in person at the museum there.
We didn't make it to Santa Fe unfortunately - the lock down happened and we had to post pone our trip. But thank you for these recommendations!!! I had not heard of the Meow Wolf Museum but will definitely put that on our list of things to do when we do get to go - thank you!
This is beautiful Sandi! Are you able to tell me which sketchbook you’re using for this painting?
love this, you make it look easy painting birds…what colored pencils are those?
Polychromos.
Wonderful video! I didn’t quite get though, what are the paints that you were using?
Sandi can you link the brand of colored pencils that you used in this video? I just wanna make sure that I use ones that would work well on top of Flashe paint
The bests are my favorite part in this piece. I’m still trying to get used to filming while arting my latest one I had to make into a speed paint cause my talking was boring 😆
Elin - thank you! Painting and filming is HARD I'm still getting use to it. That is hysterical about the "my talking was boring" - I felt the same way on this one but just left it.
Sandi Hester if only UA-cam was around when I was in high school 😆 I had no issues getting on camera/talking back then. I was told we get more confidence as we age but I didn’t get that delivery 😂
I do better the other way around.. Do other stuff I need to do first thing then by afternoon I have the rest of the day in the studio.. everybody's different
I love it!!!
