It is beautiful how much you share with us and I am grateful to be able to follow your journey. I also appreciate the house tour; looking at houses gives me the same rush as looking at art. Sending you all the creative vibes for your new space!
Nice property! The historical farmhouse is SWEET! I suppose having a sink in each bedroom puts a modern spin on the pitcher and bowl that would have been used during the house's original heyday. Let's grow some wild blueberries!
I LOVE your new place, so bright and airy and beautiful. The land is fantastic - my grandmother (in Japan) used to say we should look to far out greenery to rest our eyes and mind. Seems like that's the perfect place for that. I look forward to seeing how the country environment might add different nuances to your art!! As always, THANK YOU for sharing🥰🏡🎨
@@SouthernArtist77 I somewhat understand her reluctance if she's not lived anywhere else in the US. There's a certain comfort in certain states with a known Japanese population...my mom is the same way
Thank you so much for the tour!!!! I love that you shared it with us as it is. What a really wonderful place to live and work and see the beautiful countryside outside your windows :)
So nice you have all that room. I do mixed media abstract and i have about a12x12 room and it is all packed in there. But it is the first time I've had a room just for my studio!😊
What a beautiful property you have! Thanks for giving us a tour of your slice of heaven on earth. I am also relieved to see that you won't be alone there.
when my UA-cam feed showed the video of what you have been doing I was excited cause I hadn’t seen any new videos from you for so long. I’m glad you let your followers follow you.What a fantastic place for an artist! So calming and inspiring. I just moved to a new place in October and I was silly enough to get a new puppy and I’m seventy years old. The vet says she should calm down at about a year old, she is four months now but I have hope. A new puppy, a new kitten and a new horse just stuns me. No wonder you haven’t had much time for your art. You couldn’t get father away from downtown Toronto but what a fantastic place to be. I am so envious. Best wishes to you and your sister as you make this fabulous space your new home and studio.
Oh Sherry haha you are brave! But they are such a pleasure to have around right? As much as they drive us crazy I couldn't see my life without them all. ALl the best to you and happy holidays.
Lori, so nice to see you settled in Nancy’s old farmhouse. I noticed in the video you are making use of table that I left stored at Sandra over 18 yrs ago lol........so glad someone can use the stuff. I’m sure it’s a big change from TO but the tranquillity & serenity at Mount Blow is so soothing. Enjoy your new homestead. I’m sure we will see each other in the next few months.
Hey Monique!! Hard now to settle in quickly at Mount Blow farm. It’s a pretty special place. Yes!! Sandra was using your table as her desk. It’s a beautiful table. Looking forward to seeing you...it’s been a very very long time.
Thank you very much for the private and professional house tour! Your house is beautiful and homey. I'm sure you'll find your peace and inspiration for painting here. I could very well live there, just brilliant. Enjoy your life and many more glorious summer days.
That was great thank you! ...and going the extra mile showing us your personal spaces too!. Have fun getting fully set up and I’ll wait patiently for my favourite UA-camr to get back into your rhythm when you’re ready!
Love, love love this space! It is beautiful💜 And squeaky wood floor tip...try lightly dusting baby powder between the wood, sometimes it stops the squeak.
I had a hard time following one video right after the other, when they are connected and have numbers, like that, giant, very wide piece with lots of dark colors, blues, etc. I found number five and then the rest were gone. POOF! I love watching your paint!
Thank you Lori. Your new home and studio tour was worth the wait. What a beautiful setting. Spiders, I thought that is what cats were for, to take care of those pesky creatures. You should see the spiders down here and the snakes too! I don't like either of them much. Well done on the new studio and looking forward to many more hours of UA-cam creativity and inspiration.
I would rather have snakes unless they can kill me. Too many spiders for her to kill. Plus she’s old and sleeps most days or now she’s taking to watching the birds from the windows.
Thanks so much! getting myself set up here so everything works properly is taking a bit of time. but it's getting there. old house has some kinks in it hahah.
Congratulations on the new place. Love the rustic charm and it looks like a place that will inspire creativity. You are definitely blessed. NOTE: To keep spiders away, spray your entry door hearths with a mixture of water and peppermint oil. It worked for me.
A Fantastic place !!!!!! So much natural light in there !!! Are you going to have horses ???? Still dream of something like that !!!!! Congradulations and thanks for the visit !!!! -Mireille.
So wonderful of you to film and share your new place. The spaces are awesome! Lots of light everywhere! I’m jealous. And your sister’s garden is beautiful.
That was so exciting! I looove old houses! I love to see art studio tours, I'm stuck in a 10x12 bedroom that I'm quickly growing out of, and just don't know what to do, since I don't know what my future holds in terms of relocating my home or not. ugh so frustrating..
Love your place, love your work, the open paintings of recent which you have sent to Holland are my favorite. Your place reminds me of Pollock's home in East Hampton......
Wow Lori! What a fantastic spot you have there :) I love old homes with character, and yours has tons! Your studio space is wonderful and I'm sure you'll get set up in no time. Lovely garden your sister has, perfect for doing plein air abstract florals - wink wink lol. Was that an indoor swimming pool in that barn/shed? Thank you so much for sharing your new place, and I hope you'll find more joy there than "city living" Enjoy and Happy Painting
Beautiful setting! I see a whole lot of new inspiration. Nothing better then to walk outside first thing in the morning with your favorite beverage and enjoy the quiet.
BEAUTIFUL!!!! I was raised in the country, my parents moved into my grandpas working farm when he passed. I moved to a major city after college and still love it here but looking forward to moving back to the country. Hopefully sooner than later as covid gave me a new appreciation for privacy and fresh country air. Your new home pulls on my heart strings. Love. ❤️❤️
What a charming log house!!! I even like the old wallpaper!!! There's not too much (just enough to add that vintage charm). Your studio looks marvelous. Are you going to have a painting wall (where you can hang your large canvases as you work on them). That's what I personally love having in my little studio. I learned how to do it from Betty Franks. Thanks for the wonderful tour and I'll continue to watch for and enjoy your beautiful art.
Aww thanks Carolyn....I know the wallpapers does have some charm lol eventually it will be removed but until then I love it. Nope I stopped painting in the wall years ago. I prefer the easel now.
‼️‼️ OMGGGG you are living my DREAM. Painting in a fab studio on a rurall farm with Horses and supporting it all!!!‼️‼️
It is beautiful how much you share with us and I am grateful to be able to follow your journey. I also appreciate the house tour; looking at houses gives me the same rush as looking at art. Sending you all the creative vibes for your new space!
OM GOSH ME TOOOO!!!!
Oh Lori. What piece of heaven you have found.
If I have a choice in my next life I pick yours. 🙏
awwww Karen 😊😂
All the best in this gorgeous place, Lori. It's amazing! ❤️
Thank you very much!!
Nice property! The historical farmhouse is SWEET!
I suppose having a sink in each bedroom puts a modern spin on the pitcher and bowl that would have been used during the house's original heyday.
Let's grow some wild blueberries!
Yesss. The pervious owner years ago did a bed n breakfast here...hence the bedroom sinks.
And so it is....😇
Thanks Lori - it's amazing, a great way to live. Enjoy!!
Thank you so much Jackie!!! 😊

Your grandmother wise woman. I couldn't agree more....🥰
My sister in law was born in Japan and I’m trying to get her to move to Arkansas from CA, I’m afraid they’re going to run out of water, seriously.

Thank you so much for the tour!!!! I love that you shared it with us as it is. What a really wonderful place to live and work and see the beautiful countryside outside your windows :)
It really is! and thank you for watching🥰
Your new place is amazing! Art AND horses? Now that’s my idea of heaven. And all that’s space? Wow!
It's my heaven too. I finally started riding again...only a couple times a week right now
I love your new house set up. Thanks for sharing. I love seeing houses. Peaceful setting should get a good mindset there. ❤
Enjoy your new home and studio! 😍😍
Thank you so much !!!
So nice you have all that room. I do mixed media abstract and i have about a12x12 room and it is all packed in there. But it is the first time I've had a room just for my studio!😊
Gorgeous place! I don't like gardening because of bugs. Glad to know I'm not alone 😃
I love all the windows! Wow! Beautiful property! And I can’t believe I just found you. Your art is gorgeous! Now I’m off yo watch more videos. ❤
What a beautiful property you have! Thanks for giving us a tour of your slice of heaven on earth. I am also relieved to see that you won't be alone there.
I know right would kill the wolf spiders for me 🤣🤣🤣 it’s nice having family as neighbours
Wow! That's amazing. It's a lot bigger than it looked from the outside. Lots of wonderful space AND it's in a country setting! My dream too!!
yes it's 2800 square feet.

I had a hard time following one video right after the other, when they are connected and have numbers, like that, giant, very wide piece with lots of dark colors, blues, etc. I found number five and then the rest were gone. POOF! I love watching your paint!
Gorgeous house! Nothing more needs to be done to it. It's perfect. So tastefully done.
Aww thank you 😊
Very nice place. Both the house and the scenery. Love old houses. It must be an excellent place for creativity.

Hi Lori, your new home is fabulous and spacious! There are so many pretty areas around OTtawa and Almonte is certainly one of them. Congratulations.
I agree Louise it’s quite pretty out here.
Its a beautiful house and property. You and your sister are so blessed.
Aww thank you !!

Thank you so much!🥰
Thank you Lori what a great space you have; studio as well as home! :)

ohhhhhh good tip lol I have some peppermint oil around here somewhere. If not I'll buy a gallon from some where 😂
@@lorimirabelliabstractartist I can pat snakes all day but show me a spider and I lose all function. LOL Totally with ya, Lori!
@@lorimirabelliabstractartist or a spray of water and household vinegar will also work.
Incredible place, thank you for the tour!! Will be interesting to see how the beautiful property etc 🌸🌻🌱 spins into your work!!
I'm not sure it will spin into my work... but you never know.
Beautiful beautiful spot, ❤❤❤❤
Thank you it was…but just moved to a new house May 1.
Lovely space, great light. Almonte is a wonderful little down. Welcome to Eastern Ontario.
It is very beautiful here.
Hey this is actually HUGE with the upstairs. Love the greenery outside. Should be a nice change of pace from the city.
Yesss it's very large house. 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. I'm super happy to be out of the city.
So beautiful Lori! Much love 💜🌸💕
thank you very much.
A Fantastic place !!!!!! So much natural light in there !!! Are you going to have horses ???? Still dream of something like that !!!!! Congradulations and thanks for the visit !!!! -Mireille.
My sister has 4 of them and she is boarding 3 more so I have all the horses to enjoy as well.

It's a charmer for sure. just redid the front and side porch this past summer. Slowly but surely the plan will be to restore this gem.
Congrats on your new beautiful art studio. Looking forward to watching your videos again... :)
