You did a wonderful job showing your process. I'm an older woman. I've been sewing and crocheting since forever. Been considering a RUclips channel, but not sure what. You've inspired me, young one! 😥😊

This was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing!

LOL I use random objects as weight too! This soft sculpture is super intriguing. Loved watching your process. Thanks for sharing <3

thank you so much for sharing this! i love soft sculpture but am super intimidated by sewing and stuffing because it is not an artistic medium they teach about in schools. you're so skilled with a needle and thread, i hope i get there someday too :-)

LOVE!! You're a genius

what you said about collage predominantly featuring as fashion media... you are SO on point. I was recently reintroduced to the medium in a queer collaging group run by a friend and it's COMPLETELY changed my view on it :) i really like your approach of it as sort of putting to use things that would otherwise just be scrap from more involved projects, its sort of like taking re-ownership of your own 'trash' and making it good and artful and intentional, i really love that

this was so impressive!!! I could tell immediately from the opening shot that turning and stuffing this piece was going to be a task and a half haha, you did an amazing job!!

it looks so cool! how would you clean it? i found a soft sculpture at good will from 1991 and cant find anything online for what to use to clean it with

Really interesting piece! Love it 👍🏽

having just gotten one of your drawings in the mail, i can confirm: your art makes people happy!! 🦋🥳🎨

I prefer the texture of these over normal acrylics. It is much easier to get flat, opaque color without brush strokes. I don't like to dilute my acrylics since it makes the paint more transparent and can affect the longevity of the piece.

Such a good good dog

hey honestly i felt that same way about selling my work, and i do feel like im selling out and making cheap things. but ya know, art is the only thing i really enjoy doing and if i have to pay bills then i have to capitalize off it i guess. i have a job on the side but i still struggle with income, so i totally feel you!!!

good luck!

6:31 dog!

i had a really similar thing, i finished my undergrad last year and had a lot of big plans for this year, (trying to get shows and residencies) and then the pandemic happened and everything closed and i couldn't make the work i wanted to make and everything kind of just fell apart. i'm in australia where the virus is like mostly under control and everything started opening up again relatively early, but it just totally derailed me, i was so motivated at the beginning of the year and then the pandemic happening was like driving into a wall. so i don't think anyone should feel bad about not achieving what they wanted to achieve this year. but i did get into the masters program i applied for next year so that's something!

i loved this!💕 i actually just posted the same video! this year definitely did NOT go as planned lol😅

This is my favorite video so far. I feel like the only things I'm proud of accomplishing this year are getting back into writing (I started tracking my word count and I've written over 100k since like, the end of summer?), then staying sober, and then just like surviving in general. 🙃 Also I am very good at administrative things!!! Pls hmu if you ever need help! 😊 Organizing is a fun challenge for me!

i didn’t write goals but i think i would have oddly reached a lot of the goals i had for 2020, but how they played out looked SO much different than i thought they were going to. i need to do a better job of actually setting goals and writing them down, but i think fear gets to me too, like i’ll be a failure if i don’t get to check the boxes. looking forward to the next vid where you formulate your goals for next year!

Really enjoyed your books review. I just discovered Molly Zuckerman Hartung right before I discovered your video. I am a beginner abstract, non-objective painter and love collage and assemblage too. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Thank you.

i totally thought those fuzzy blubs were intentional! i love how it turned out

WINAMP

I like ur bread clip necklace!!

7:50 - 😭😭😭 Love you, Ann 🖤🖤🖤

I see what you mean about the "bleed" on those markers. Beautiful.

the black and white filter value trick is so useful! also sorry i knocked over your youtube light 😖

i found your youtube channel through tumblr where i've been following you for maybe 5 years and i just wanna say i'm really enjoying them, i find them really soothing and i really enjoy getting to hear about your process while you make! i'm also an artist but i make work that's totally different to what you do, and it's just so nice getting an insight into a totally different way of making :)

ahh i really love hearing you talk about your experiences.

thank you for sharing! i feel like ur thoughts are always worthwhile - they're very layered and make me want to do art research myself 🧵🍱🎠

Anna, I really enjoy watching your videos documenting your art practice. I finished grad school in 2016 and felt the same kind of lost. I also completed a sketchbook in 4 years, lol.

really dig that laura owens book! also I always love seeing what you find in secondhand stores. 🥰

great vid ! relaxing

i would be curious to see how you mix paint colors/how much you mix up close

love it!!!

love hearing about ur process and thoughts!! i find it super valuable as a mixed media artist myself 😊✳️

welcome back!! 🦋🌈🎊 and the soft looms are incredible 📝🧶

ooo i would invest in a tshirt!

dam.... bi bich 😵

i have always been inspired by your organizational skills if i can just be quite honest.

the color, the forms, the texture. wow, whoa, what??

i love pentel brush pens, big big fan. as i recall i think once you said they are the pen that can smell your fear, and wow, yes i agree.

if i had a basket like that, i think i would put fruit in it like you, but i also think maybe i would try putting my cat in that so i could maybe snap a quick picture.

The markers remind me of going to space camp in sixth grade. It was a merit based day trip, and we pretended to be ground control guiding the landing of a Mars mission. I mention it was merit based because I'm pretty sure I conned my way in (I was a bad student).

If I had a basket like that I'd put like lil pieces of paper or maybe stones in it.

Marking that paper like I ain't never seen! Oooooohweeeee!

Love your desk tour! You have so many more supplies than I do and can probably put them to better use. Your organizational skills are tremendous.
