I turned 50 in November. I've been drawn to my creative side this year. I've only ever been a mother really. I had five children, lost my only daughter almost ten yrs ago. Autoimmune disease has left me feeling quite ineffectual for far too long. Over the years I started many creative projects that never got finished, or even got further than buying supplies. Thanks to you, I've been looking around and gathering things, and discovered I have quite a few bits and bobs. You have been very inspiring. I'm going to turn my dining room into an art studio. You have such a lovely, gentle, honest way about you, and it's greatly appreciated. I'm even going to dust off and finish reading the book, "The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity." It emphasizes never being too old to learn something new, and start a new path. Happy Mother's Day.
Sending you lots of hugs and love as you reconnect!!
The Artist's Way is a wonderful book! I have done Morning Pages off and on for decades, and an "artist's date" is a wonderful weekly tool. I've never actually finished reading the entire book, and I've given away my copy, but recently found a free copy of "The Vein of Gold" which is like Book 2 of The Artist's Way - so maybe I should finish up reading that one for starters!
The Artist's Way was what got me started again when I was your age. Saved my life.
I am so sorry you lost your beautiful daughter, to survive that means you can do anything.
I do hope you find your way.. 🌺
First, Happy Birthday! And on Mother's Day, in the US, I have been thinking about this link between creativity and motherhood. Being a mother is the ultimate creative act-of bringing another human being into this world and helping shape a growing little person. As mothers of young children, I think our creative energy can often be filled to overflowing in this season of our life. And then, when our children are older, we continue to have all this creative desire to nurture, to recognize the beauty in the world around us (who besides a mom sees the beauty of a scribble proudly presented by their child?), and bring forth something new. Finding a new creative outlet is so healing and helps us to continue our natural generative process. Some paint/sketch, others bake/cook, some find others to nurture -the ill, homeless, elderly, very young, etc. But all should seek ways to continue this God-given gift of being co-creators. I am sending prayers for the healing too, of your mother's heart. Losing your child is a unique pain and I hold you and your daughter close in prayer.
My situation mirrors yours. Autoimmune disease is pernicious and exhausting. I had to stop drawing and painting- unable to hold a pencil or brush. But-- I started fingering painting on a small scale. I used strong coffee, used or secondhand acrylic. I painted on paper bags, junk mail, the backs of envelopes, The crappier the supplies the bigger risks I took and the more I practiced.
For the longest time it was my only pain reducer.
I feel a bit better, but keep using the least expensive tools and supplies to reduce the stress of producing a perfect image.
I wish you joy and satisfaction, as well as enjoying the lovely memories you have.
Two years ago my husband very suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. I am not an artist but I used to enjoy’dabbling’. I decided to get my painting things out from where they had been stored away for years. After quite awhile of dabbling and painting’pictures’ I decided to start a nature journal which I shall give to my little granddaughter who loves nature.
Well, all I can say is I LOVE it, I think I’m addicted!😂 I have not done a lot, but everything is turning out so well and I’m finding I’m painting things I haven’t done before eg; birds and insects. The beauty of it is you can do one little thing a day and complete it then think about what’s going in your sketchbook next. YesI LOVE it and absolutely definitely it has been and is a complete LIFE SAVER, you are quite right.😁😁🇬🇧
I am so sorry for your lose of your husband. Mine is much older than myself and I fear his passing, but while doing that I am missing out on the present. Art helps this Libra have balance. Yes, I am addicted, as you, of color, creations and expression of my inner self. Bless you for sharing.
Sorry for your loss of your husband. Art and sketchbooks have been my saving grace. I lost my father in 2014 and my mother in 2021. I fear the loss of my sister. She is 18 months younger than me. I just found out Tuesday she has lung cancer. Never smoked a day in her life. We will find out the stage of it on May 20. I suffer with high blood pressure and anxiety among other illnesses and I just look forward to creating and watching my artist friends on you tube. Lifts my spirits. And Wendy really helps so much. Just get creating something like Wendy says and it will bring you some peace and joy. My sister would never do it. I always told her you can do it to keep your stress level down. Take care. ❤
@@ljshaw8516Thankyou. Enjoy your artistic endeavours 😊
@@madelynsmith8281Thankyou, There is no doubt art has helped me, hope it can help you too. Take care.😊
I am so glad that you are enjoying your artwork again…and to make something of beauty for your granddaughter. ❤
I just watched this and cried…..after such a difficult week god knows I needed a reminder to get out of my head and remember how good it is to just draw and forget what’s going on around me for a few minutes ❤
oh soft hugs for your tricky week, and yes, take some moments for your creativity xxxx
@@theunexpectedgypsy Thank you so much for taking a moment to reply, I really do appreciate that ❤
I love your little sketchbook. I may be 58, but when I 'grow up' I want to be able to sketch buildings like you
I feel the same way!
OMG! I sketched a bee . . . copying a card from the V&A Museum. It looks like a bee . . . I'm thrilled. Thank you Wendy.
It's true, art is therapy. Best skill I ever picked up - and it wasn't until 31 that I did it! No regrets at all.
Idk how to draw besides a stickman and a square house. But I bought me a sketchbook and I started sketching. My first sketch was an eye and it was really good I was surprised.
Soundz good!
Good for you!!! Keep sketching.
I used to draw eyes often. There is definitely truth to the saying that they are windows on the soul I think. Happy sketching.
Love to draw eyes ✍️
Thank you so much for your video. I was a watercolor artist. I say was because I haven't done it for many years as an illness came along and just wiped me out. But I am alive and going back to it and I realized that I must do sketching again. My grandson has been encouraging me to sketch more. I would love to see any videos that you want to do about sketching and being a better artist. I love your channel and appreciate you so very much. Blessings from an old lady in New Mexico
Good for you!!! New Mexico is so beautiful!!! I have an “adopted” family in Tucumcari that was wonderful to me when my son died in California. I was traveling from Alabama, and now I love NM, too!!
oh wonderful, your grandson is very wise indeed! happy sketching dear soul in Mexico xxxx
Thankyou luvly. I don’t know why I resist so much. I have sketchbooks and pencils and in my mind I want to sketch every day, but I just keep on resisting. I annoy myself 🙄
Right… I’m getting a piece of paper out now and a pencil and eraser… right this moment. X
Me too. I have everything ready . I just need to sit in the chair and go. Let’s do it. 5 minutes a day.
Hi Wendy, always such a pleasure to watch your videos, thank you for sharing. Being a Creative Therapist in a NHS Hospice, I can also tell you first hand the huge amount of benefits the patients got from any kind of art and crafts, also creating memories for their loved ones. I am an art tutor as well, and also worked in a NHS Mental Health hospital for many years. It was amazing to see how art could give the patients peace and stillness, as well as confidence and self esteem knowing that they could achieve something in times of huge distress.
Perfect timing of this video…I have so many sketchbooks just sitting around waiting for me. You have given me the nudge I need to take one out and start sketching something! I would very much enjoy a video with ideas of what to sketch as that is sometimes half the battle. As usual thanks for another great video and loved the music you chose to go along with it.💕
Aww so glad you enjoyed it XXxs happy sketching xx
Same.
This is wonderful for me. Just the encouragement I need. I’d been doing art classes for a while but didn’t know how to move forward to do stuff independently. Thank goodness I’ve found you! I even got disillusioned and have stopped completely for a while. After listening to you , I’m ready to get started again. Keep it simple, uncomplicated and fun - no perfectionism.❤
Thanks for the push to get me sketching /im a artist that goes by pure DNA talent /thats got a freezing up problem /im alone and unsupported emotionally for the most part /and I need a lot of emotional support!
My last sketchbook was filled mostly with sketches of trees, all kinds. And before I could choose a new book, I made a stack of drawings on printer paper and lined note paper. My new sketchbook felt "too nice" at first, so I went back to drawing in an old mixed media spiral notebook. But I find real joy in creating every day (or almost), whether it be sketching , doodling, or making an involved drawing or working on a painting, or writing. After an escape with myself, I usually feel more relaxed and have a renewed perspective and outlook.
I think you are spot on, Wendy, that sketching can be life changing or life saving. And I love the idea of inspiration from favourite artists, and of using a sketchbook to develop and explore and learn technique, and to discover the nuances of our artistic voice. Also, developing a habit of sketching early in our day is probably good for starting our day right (and hopefully positive).
I love all your sketches; thank you for the reminder that some can be rough and loose, others detailed and more finished, as well as the reminder that sketching can be fun, relaxing, and inspiring.
Magic happened - the Aurora Australis was visible near me last night! Could the fairies have been having a rave or a festival?😉 Hoping they spread their pixie dust to the other side of the world. Much love, hugs, and inspiration from Australia.🧡❤️✨
I am off to the Lake District next week so will definitely be bringing my sketch book! xx
I live here 😊
Thank you Wendy, I am going to put up my craft table NOW in my tiny flat ready for a NEW BEGINNING. My table is the size of a small cottage!!! it makes moving around tricky . . . but I'm now up for it. Tar very much!!!!
I’ve just read through a few comments from this wonderful tribe of artists at heart. I adore your tribe. Honored to be counted within.
Thank you Wendy. You are always my cup of tea! I needed this boost of your shining light! ❤ to You.
All your videos are inspirational for me. Any video you do will be so too. Thank you for being on UA-cam.
After watching your video , I’ve now got the confidence to finally do a sketch book class at my local college. I’m starting in September !
Thank you Wendy 🙏🏻
Thank you, Wendy, once again for the company of your videos in the nights I can't sleep well... I get such inspiration and solace from your videos.. I did blow the dust off my little sketch book I draw, color, collage in and felt my soul spirit rise in grateful vibration.
I currently belong to 2 different art groups, which I call my mental health support groups. We meet once a month and though we do talk about art and do a "show and tell" on our current projects, more often we just talk about life. Between us, we've supported each other through surgeries, marriages, deaths, widowhood, cancer, new babies, repairing flooded houses, and on and on. These women, lift each other up and help us all get through those tough parts of life....and art. I couldn't manage without every one of them. That is my art community.
Thankyou Wendy for stopping by and taking time to chat. I agree that sketching is cathartic. I also sketch on scraps of paper that sometimes get glued into a journal or become part of a collage. I love to make my own sketchbooks and journals from different sizes and types of paper,that way they seem less daunting to fill. I have some sketches from when I was a teenager and love looking back at them..I’m 63 and my love of all things art has got me through the ups and downs of life. We’re a strange bunch us artists but we’re a kind hearted bunch . Sending love and light 🙏🏻✨🎨🤗🫶🏻
Thank you so much Wendy! I never skip your videos and they always bring me such comfort and inspiration. They feel like a warm hug for my soul. I'm going on holiday soon and you've inspired me to take my little sketchbook with me. Thank you so much for all that you do. Much love to you & James xx ❤
oh thank you so much for keeping me company every video! Happy sketching and happy holidays! xx
I cannot fully express or know why but when i found your channel it has brought me a way to sketch to recover from the grief of putting my elderly dog Buddy down easter Sunday. Now i also realize the evening sketching will probably help me from my pending head injury induced dementia in a few years. Thank you for posting these lovely videos and i hope they also continue to help you and not become a burden.
Sending you a healing hug. May you enjoy many years of joyful sketching x
Just wanted to say hi I have an aquired brain injury and legally blind after accident.I froze for 3 years and then found Wendy.I started a art journal mixed media etc as I used to make a living from selling my art and felt I could not do that,so I could not create.I am slowly starting to find new ways to create, thanks to Wendy.I wanted to say to you,you are perfect,worthy and there are ways to find ourselves again.I wish you all good things.
@lisamorice4701 Thank you I wish same for you!
I truly love these small quotes that are so impactful. ❤ I quilt and do art journal and stuff a bit. It is so great to create the trauma out of my system or go deeper during these moments.
Today I wrote myself a note to start drawing again! Tomorrow will be sketching. Glad to see a left hander too! i also love books that open flat, I usually use spiral books, cos as a mancina (left hander) you can start at the 'other' beginning of the book!
Thank you lovely.
This was lovely and can i say i love your studio and you creating but also as a sidenote i love your gray hair and the way you dress and your jewelry,very you!!! I just turned 47 and i am now letting my hair be gray,still a journey until i am totally gray but it feels good to just be me☕🫖🥧🍵🕯📓🖋Warm hugs coming your way💖🫂
Oh wow! Meeting Rick Mayall! I loved the Young Ones so much when I was at Uni! Was he lovely? He must of been chuffed at your sketch!😮
I am so thankful for you Wendy❤️. I started my art journey when I was 62, 7 years ago. I love being in my studio which is a spare bedroom. I have even been asked if I would paint for commission which I have done. I am self taught. You tube is my go to to learn from many different artists. Your channel brings me joy!! Thank you and have a great day.
Wendy, you have reignited my wish for a studio. Oh how I have missed art and creative expression.
Beautiful video, thank you Wendy for being so generous with your info and sharing your wonderful spirit to help others. 🌹💗🌹💗🧚♀️
Thank you Wendy for this inspiring video. Your wisdom is so helpful. This video is exactly what I needed this week. I found out Tuesday that my sister that is years younger than me has lung cancer. Never smoked a day in her life. We will find out what stage it is in on May 20. I would love to hear more about ideas for the sketchbook.❤ It is Mother's Day today in the US. A rather rainy one at that.
What a *fabulous sketch* of the actor *rik mayall* from 1995 And rik mayall signed your fab artwork - *brilliant*
I enjoyed Rik mayall playing a _conservative_ Police officer in the wonderful 1980 drama called _walcott_
Keep sharing.
Stay happy everyone
Thank you Wendy for inspiring me to pick up my pencil again, You are a STAR....⭐⭐⭐ ✨🌟💫😊
Thank you so much, Wendy. I want to sketch for so many years, but never had the courage to go for it. I think now it is the time. Thank you for your encouragement and your tips. I would be happy to see a video about what to sketch in my journal. That would be nice.
I find an image that brings me joy. Then I draw and draw and draw, over and over, as many times as I feel like it. I might sketch something once or I might do it five or six times and each time I learnt something new.
the very best Patreon value. You always under promise and deliver LOVE BIG!! Love you Fairy Queen Wendy Wind
Love you Wendy!🧡🧡🧡
Yes please a video on what to put in your sketchbook. I’ve been going through a bit of a block lately.
Ooh yes please - what to put in your sketchbook!
Great video! I am 46 and just started sketching at the end of April or so and watercolor painting in March of this year. It has been fun and healing. This video came just at the right time for me. I always think of giving up because I am not "good" at it. I just need to keep doing it. Have a blessed day!
You’re the best. Thank you for your timely pep talks and generous demonstrations. I learn so much, every time. 🥰
Thank you for this very positive video Wonderful Wendy. My art was put down at school as being cartoon like, which put me off even trying, as I wanted to not be that way. I am now 66 years young, and I do paint pottery, but tend to stick to abstract design, as I am afraid of failing with drawing, and am a perfectionist. Although I am a very observant person, and notice if anything is different, I find it hard to get scale right with things on paper. I can see images in my head, but can not get them down on paper, which is sooo frustrating. I do find I can copy things though. xxx
Your videos inspire me, they make me think that life is lighter and that it's never too late, beautiful work of art and psychology ❤
Great video. Love your art so much!!🤗
Loving this Wendy. I’ve just bought a small watercolour sketchbook- I love working with watercolour and pen, and I’ve been getting back into my artwork over the past few months. It definitely helps with stress, with improving hand-eye coordination, and also imagination. The more artwork you do, the more you want to do - ideas just seem to come from nowhere!! I also use a sketchbook for mixing colours, or trying out different colours, and trying out other media. I’d love to see more videos on sketchbooks- especially on location (I always work from photos) but any tips on sketching or painting outdoors would be brilliant. 😍🥰
I absolutely love you ❤❤❤everything you are and everything you do❤️🌹🌹🌹
Definitely would love Inspirational Ideas for Sketching
I know it's celebrated a different day there, but I have to come give love and appreciation to you, one of my mentor mamas.
Happy Mother's Day, lovely Wendy!
🪷😊✨️💕💐
Thank you for all you do ❤❤❤ much appreciated
Love sketching❤ very important in the journey of artistry...
Hello Wendy, I especially loved this video! It will be one of my favorites to keep and watch again and again...Very inspirational... Thank You so very much...KCP
Hello beautiful Wendy, you are looking so wonderful.
I’ve just returned from a month long out of state stay due to my mum passing and this is perfect time to view this wonderful video.
I love to draw, sketch and seldom have a sketch book anywhere were I go but now realize I need to start doing it more.
Loved seeing your sketch books and your paper sketches. So lovely. You spark the best in all of us. I’ve been known to sketch on a napkin out, or the back of an envelope but need to carry a small sketch book when I’m out and about. So many times I’ve seen something I wanted to draw.
My dear friend you inspire so many of us and you’ve shared some more valuable tips from your wealth of knowledge and experience. Thank you for all you do.
Keep your lights shining bright and sparkle and I will too. Much love.❤❤❤
Happy Mother's Day Wendy.Hope you and James have a wonderful weekend.
Thanks for the advice! I always love your videos!
What a treasure you are Wendy. X
I really love your video style. I feel as if I’ve come round for a visit and a cup of coffee. You are always inspiring and uplifting, even when you are working through something, emotionally heavy.
Thank you for allowing us to join your journey.
Greatly appreciative
Dee
You are, like a 'little, piece of hope'
Thank you, a lot 🙏🏻🤗✌🏻
God bless, you 💟
Thank you for the reminders of the benefits of sketching Wendy. I like to sketch, doodle, draw on the backs of envelopes for some reason.
Happy birthday!! (belated but hey)
Best sketchbook is the non-planned kind
Oodles of love Wendy 🩵💚💛
Your videos soothe me so much. Im going through a lot right now; empty nest, selling my house, looking for a new house, packing, restructuring my novel businesses including Delisting all book with current publishers. I was so stressed out and then your video with the song... hang on tight it will be alright.. it was the sign i needed! ❤❤❤ Thank you ❤️
I just love you and your videos. Your talents also include kindness and great inspiration and motivation to just get to it and do it. The preciousness of the sketchbook was/is my biggest hurdle because .....right you want everything to look good. ....but you are you own worst critique. At least i am to myself and i need to stop THAT. LOL. Like you say "let your light shine". You cant do that if you snuff it out with the self critique. So THANK YOU for encouraging and promoting me into action. Happy Mothers day!!! Thank you for letting YOUR light shine so that you illuminate US😍❤️❌⭕️
I never thought I was any good at drawing, but when I began the Milan Art Institute's Mastery Program online a couple of years ago we had to do drawings, and I couldn't believe just how well I could do when I tried. I've mostly been painting since then, but started the drawing of a barn and outbuildings recently in order to paint it, and fell in love with the drawing so decided to keep this as a drawing and perhaps do a painting of it later. Since then I've picked up my pencil and done a drawing of an open window opening onto lovely scene, and I think this video of yours, Wendy, is encouraging me to keep sketching as a weekly, if not daily, habit. The process of drawing a thing is really helping me familiarize myself with the details of it - like a pansy plant I recently bought that I did a watercolour of. Thanks for your encouragement and inspiration! Love and Light to you and James!
Thank you I always feel good about my drawings when watch you & feel happy in my liver too x
Yes would love to see a video on what to put in your sketchbook ❤❤❤
Oh Wendy I love this video. Beautiful sketching and super music. Love love love it ❤ thanks so much.
I host art therapy paint parties in my home 6x a month and absolutely love it. Art therapy and the coming together has really benefited all of my creatives. All who have attended have never painted before. We have so much fun and have discovered different parts of ourselves. Thanks for a great video full of wonderful truths! Cheers all and keep creating
Thank you for sharing your sketch books with us. It encouraging to know you have several sketch books that you work in and it just takes a few minutes a day to do work in them. I plan to watch your video again and take notes. I love watching you work, your drawings are very nice. ❤
World is upside down, I came here now to calm down and listen to your lovely voice and learn. Thank you for this wonderful channel! :)
Dearest Wendy
You are such a bright light!! Thank you for all your wonderful suggestions. It really puts things in perspective 😊
I have missed you a lot. Love your art, dedication and lovely attitude. You are truly gifted in so many ways.
Best wishes from Lima, Peru, South America

Love this video! Thankyou xo
you have inspired me to start painting again - I'm 58 and wondering around in the dark with what I'm supposed to be doing these days - the painting has brought me back so much joy - thank you
I would love a video on what to put in my sketchbook. I love this video also. Very helpful. I hope you have a great week.😊
Thank you for this session. Anything about sketchbooks would be so fantastic! What size and paper weight would be motivating? Watching you is always a win, win, win ….Keep on doing what you do💜
very important and useful info you have given here. I truly know drawing, sketching and art really helps my moods. Thank you for this and all your videos.
Thank you for sharing, Wendy. 🙂💚🌺
Love, Love, Love - thank you for this lovely video.
I started keeping a sketchbook and am discovering a new way to create art - using lots of new art materials. I enjoy not taking my art so seriously, having fun and finding enjoyment in just creating art for me. 🙏💜
Wendy I love to watch your videos. You keep me company throughout the days. What you say and the way you think is so close to my own inner world. I always wonder - have you ever considered creating an online course teaching sketching, particularly faces and figures? I would definitely become your student. x
Thank you for sharing your experience and talent 🌷🌺🐾
Thank you! 😍 This is so helpfull! I have been panting Vedic art for many years. Now I will try to sketch moore. 🤩
