I took up art in my 60’s and I have been doing it for 10 years and it’s the most relaxing enjoyable pastime I am from north wales in the UK I came across your channel this morning so I shall sit back and watch your work…❤
Thank you so much!! I directly had like the smell of books in my nose, when I read your comment 😊 - I don‘t know if you can say it like that in english, but I guess, even if not, you know what I mean haha
😊 I’m so happy this video popped up, it’s so nice to e-meet you Anou!! I’m Zuleka, a 24yr old artist who recently started a YT channel as well (: !! I also work a full time job (overnight) so balancing art, life, etc is tough at times but I want to pursue art full time so I’m taking baby steps to do so. Wishing you all the best and I loveddd this video it was so calming.
Hey Zuleka! First of all congrats to starting your RUclips channel!! 🥳🥳🥳 Just getting started can already be so challenging 🙈 Will go take a look at it and I wish you all the best for your pursue of beeing a full time artist 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I'm so glad I just stumbled upon your video! 🥰 I love your cozy aura, and it feels so good to "talk" to someone who juggle a Full Time Job as well as pursuing art! Please keep creating, you're doing an amazing job! I'm a very small artist, hoping to one day be living off my art! 💜 Big hugs, Caro
Tansi! From Canada. I'm a huge art lover and love watching others create. Also an artist, just been taking a hiatus for a year while adjusting to new life being married and pregnant.
Hey Tansi 😊 I guess sometimes the priorities in life just shift a little bit! I definitely had times where I made waaaay less art than atm and I can‘t even imagine how hard it is to find to for art when you have kids 🤯🧡
Your painting was beautiful! Such lovely tones and light, I love your style! It’s so great to glimpse another artist’s life and see how they work, thanks for sharing I don’t know how you manage to cram it all in! My chanel is quite new but I’m enjoying the challenge of working on a different creative platform and meeting interesting friendly people. 😊
Hi! I'm Maddie, a hobby artist and early learning educator near Seattle- I have a RUclips channel where I talk about art and picture books :) I'm so glad this video was recommended to me, it's great to see how other people balance creative hobbies alongside full time work, and I loooove your painting style! ❤
I so appreciate the perspective of someone who is not a full-time artist trying to make work. That's me, and I just don't understand how to make it happen. Thank you so much for putting this realistic perspective online.
So happy that you liked it and I hope it gave you a little idea of how to manage doing it. At the end of the week I was definitely a bit tired and I could not make as much as this every week of the year 🙈 Would be too draining 😅
Always love your videos Anou! I'm Jaz, all the way from New Zealand! I'm 37 and an artist too, I mostly paint large scale murals as well as original paintings. I just started on RUclips and I'm loving it so far, it's definitely a long game! Also I love how you plan your paintings first, I do the same! 🍂
My name is Mareen & I'm from Berlin 😃🐻 I work in "Irgendwas mit Medien" & love doing creative stuff e.g. Painting, Journaling, Photography 🌻But I struggle to block time for it 🥲 I really love your art & enjoy your vlogs - they have such a cozy vibe🐕& they inspire me to take more time for the good, creative stuff in life as well, so thank you ❤ As for favorite snack: Does mochi ice count? 😆
Mochi ice totally counts!! And hey, you’re coming from my hometown 🤗🧡 So happy that the vlogs inspire you to create more, but I know how hard it is to make time for it unfortunately 🥲
hello, I loved your video! I love seeing how & when others create amidtst all the life-ing. I am 49 mama to 6, artist/psychotherapist living on the east coast of Australia and also wrestling with how to fit my art/making practice in. Thanks for sharing!
Clearly imagine you wrestling with everything rn 😂💪🏼 Can’t even imagine how much stuff you must have going on with 6! I‘m already struggling and I just have a dog 🙈
I love sushi! I live in Algoma, Wisconsin and I am a hobbyist artist. I love acrylics, watercolor, gouache, and I have tried my first oil painting this week (a still life). I experiment with acrylic inks and all kinds of other mediums (oil pastels, colored pencils, neocolor II, etc.) I do everything with my best friend Janet, and it involves a lot of laughter and we have a fabulous time! We have dreams of plein air painting with our french easels we purchased! I follow a lot of RUclips artists for inspiration and that's how I found YOU! Really enjoyed your video and meeting Tula.
Hello! This is the first time I’ve seen you and I love the relaxed chatty vibe. Also, v cute dog 🐶 I’m Sarah, from Northern Ireland, live in Scotland. Just getting started with my own RUclips - I’m learning wax carving jewellery and sharing what I know. And I also have a very cute dog and a job 🖤🐝
Hey Sarah! Nice to meet you 🙃 I Just took a look at your very first vlog - and oh myyyy! Your dog aka "the wolf" is so sweet too💖💖 Cheers to getting started on RUclips, wishing you all the best!!
Hello - Don here from Houston, TX. I have been painting for about 14 years- oils, acrylic & occasionally egg tempura. Your videos are well done! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Love to hear where you’re all coming from! It‘s crazy, there are litterally people from all over the world - I mean, duh, I‘m posting on RUclips - but it‘s still crazy to me 😅
What a fun channel!! I like your forest painting, and I didn't notice any actual "ugly" phases. All I saw were "getting there" phases, where I could basically see where it was going. I follow a certain concert pianist named Annique based in Stuttgart. She helped me settle a bet with my wife on the right way to say "Bach". I think your English is really good, and it sounds effortless. Someone from elsewhere in Europe once told me that the English language was invented by communities of French and German people trying to communicate with one another. If that's true, you're both in one person, so maybe English comes more naturally to you than you realize. Anyway, great video!!
Thank you so much!! Love the wording „getting there“ 😍 Cause I know it doesn’t really look „ugly“. It‘s maybe more the feeling I get when I‘m at that stage of the painting, where I have the feeling that I ruined everything and that I should just stop painting cause I‘m making it worse… It’s kind of an ugly feeling you know? Buuuuut maybe wording it differently could help seeing it differently 🤔 Thanks for the compliment on my english 🙈, I think it was definitely easier for me to learn it, than for others, cause there are a lot of words that are similar to both French and German. I still don’t feel like I‘m quite there yet, but in fact making those RUclips videos helps to practice. Was thinking about taking classes tho in the future 😊
Hi Anouschka, my name is Irene Schoonwinkel, I'm a freelance writer born and raised in South Africa. I love art and mostly do it as a hobby at the moment, but I would like to improve my art. I have experience painting with acrylic, but currently I'm trying my hand with watercolour. I love drawing with pencils...and two/three years ago I discovered Prismacolor pencils for the first time. I never knew pencils could be so soft! I do have a RUclips channel, but I only started it recently so I only have one video on it lol😅 I loved watching your video, keep at it! And I hope you are doing well.
Hey Irene! Nice to „meet“ you 🤗 I think really the best way to improve is just by experimenting and practicing as much as you can, when you have the time for it! But I know it’s difficult to find the time sometimes haha. Cheers to beginning a RUclips Channel!! Can’t wait to take a Look at it 🫶🏼
I definitely loved this video! And I’m in awe at how you keep managing full-time job and painting on the side! You’re incredible, keep going! I used to work in marketing and also combine it with my passion for painting. It was tough. But now that I’m a full-time artist… it’s still tough even tougher than before 😅😅 but I enjoy every bits of it even if some days are disastrous. I wish you all the best ❤ Btw your filming style is amazing and inspiring. I’m still struggling with mine😅 thank you for showing how it’s done!❤
Heyyy thank you so so much 😊😊 That week was a pretty good one, but I definitely don’t Wang you to think that every week is that much Full of art making. Some weeks are more focused on my full time job and/or my life. I think I would bien out if I‘d keep the pace as high as in this vid 🙈😅 Will go take a look at your Videos in my lunchbreak!!! 🧡✨
Hello! I’m Hannah 👋 watching from British Columbia, Canada! I’m an artist and a new RUclipsr 🙈 I have watched your videos for a little while and love your art style and such. Thanks for another great video! Love your studio set up too!! It’s dreamy!! ❤❤✨
RUclips suggested this video to me on my homepage and I totally see why! I am also vlogging on my channel about being an artist with a full time job. It's so nice finding another person like me. Can't wait to follow your journey! Subscribed. ❤
Hi ! Just found your channel from Sophie’s discord 💗 i’m a freelance illustrator based in the south of france ☀️ i’m excited to have new creators to follow here ! i started my channel a couple months ago 🥰
It’s nothing really special- I use the Sony zve 10 with the Kit lense, wich I think is a good beginner vlogging set up, but I recently bought an ND Filter! I‘m not an expert, but it works like a sunglass for your lense. That way I can mess with my aperture and leave the lense as wide open as I can, to have a bokeh effect, without overexposing my shots. It was an affordable way for me to test out if I wanna up my game and Maybe buy a better cam or lense, cause the nd filter just costed me like 30€ 🤷🏼♀️😊 Kinda happy that you pointed it out haha 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Hello from Finland 😊 working full time and on the side doing art when I have the time (now most of the time goes to video editing also as I try to record sessions also.. 😅). Nice relaxing video, great for lunch break chill. Nice weather in Germany, it is starting to cool down towards Fall in Finland and leaves dropping.
Heyyy 👋 Oh man, yes! Filming and editing also takes up suuuch a huge part of my time 😅🙈 The weather here in Germany was like really cold for one week (last week), but now it‘s getting better again. Hoping for a soft and golden autumn 😊
I am a seasonal worker (holiday home host, btw you're welcome if you want to visit Italy!) so I'm not able to enjoy Summer nor have time to draw (and I'm sad because early Summer has the best light!). The rest of the time I dedicate a lot of energies on my master's degree (ending in November, I hope) and a lot of other activities I just can't leave. Most of the time I'm out of energy, but being a jack of all trades is one of my traits since I was a kid, so I think I just have to close some important cicles and better manage the new time I'll have to draw again
Oh no, I‘m sorry that you had a summer full of work! And thank you for the invite 😊 - where in Italy are you working? You can also dm me on Instagram @anou.fabre, if you don’t wanna talk about the location here. I think it’s always a question of priorities and sometimes our focus is on something else than making art and that‘s totally okay. Dont pressure yourself too hard. Already seems like you have a loooot on your plate 🙈 Wishing you all the best for your degree 😊😊😊 P.S.: spicy roasted corn? Yuuuum!!!
Hello! I am an artist in Utah, USA. I have tried to do RUclips in the past and am going to try again soon. (There are still some older videos up.) Love this painting you did, it's beautiful!
Hello !! I’m a fashion designer, and an artist from France ! I love charcoal and oil painting, I started my RUclips channel few month ago :) I love your content !! 💖
Saluuut! Thanks for taking the time to comment 🫶🫶 Congrats on starting your YT Channel, I know how hard just starting is 😅 will go take a look at it later!!!
hi there I’m from Kuwait I love to watch relaxing videos that motivates me to paint I liked your video .. I’m a computer engineer and a mother of 3 and an artist 😁 I try to find the time to do my art as much as I can with my busy life ❤️
Hey Anouschka! Great video! I made this account because I am realizing how important art is to me, even though my job has nothing to do with art. I haven't posted anything yet on my channel (still debating, dealing with insecurities and whatnot). I'm really interested in seeing how other people manage their personal art with their full-time job, which is how I stumbled upon your video! Great channel, I immediately subscribed :)
Heyyy thank you so so much 😊 If one day you jump into the RUclips water, come back and tell me! Would love to watch your first video! The start is always the most difficult 🙈💪🏼
I’m Megan. I’m a scientist living in the UK. I love drawing landscapes, plants and animals as often as I can (most days of the week). Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen. And I love Berlin ♥️♥️. Thanks for sharing cosy art videos 🌟 Your art is beautiful :)
@@anouschkafabre I draw simple things like a plant or bird to relax. Only on the weekend or when drawing with friends would I attempt something that takes longer than ten minutes to draw, like a landscape for example. So I am a doodler! 🙃💫🌸
Hey Ossie, nice to „meet“ you too! So fun to see where ya‘ll coming from 😍😍 I‘ve actually travelled to Malaysia in the past and I loooooved it!! Went to Kuala Lumpur, Taman Negara and then to a small island called Kapas. Soooo so beautiful ✨✨✨
Hey I'm Crystal. I love to colour, sketch, I am beginning to learn with water colour pencils, paints as well as Mix media, Acrylic paints, oil pastels and Gouache. Next year I'll be doing a course in Visual Arts to build up my skills and portfolio. I'm also a parent of four children, but two are usually with their dad and the other two are with me full time. Making it work. ;) I am from Australia, Newcastle NSW. Thank you for sharing.
Oh wow that sounds like you have a loooooot on your plate rn 😯 Hope you don’t pressure yourself too hard and I wish you all the best for your visual arts course! 😊😊
@@anouschkafabre I like being busy and learning new skills, it keeps me interested. Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to me. 😊
Yeah, beeing a full time artist and living Off of our art is such a big Dream for a lot of us. But I‘m often questionning if it wouldn‘t be to much pressure for me, if I tried 🤔 But maybe it would be the best thing eher - I don’t know Haha
Hello! I’m an artist from Russia and I also make RUclips videos 😊 Been following you for quite some time and really enjoy your personality and your art!❤
Je viens juste de découvrir ta chaine par cette vidéo. C'est drôle avant même que tu dises que tu es à moitié française j'y ai pensé direct (mais ton anglais est très fluide) entre français on se reconnait bien à l'accent 😂J'adore ton contenu et ton naturel ! Sinon je suis étudiante en chimie sur Rennes, et la peinture à l'huile et une de mes passions je prépare une exposition et j'essaye de m'inspirer de l'organisation d'autres artistes peintres car la vie quotidienne, les études/job et l'art...Il faut trouver un équilibre dans tout ça ! 😄😂
Saluuut! Contente que tu sois tombée sur ma chaîne 😊 Oui c’est sur, pas facile de trouver l’équilibre et j’ai tjrs et encore du mal moi même! Genre cette semaine là, j’étais super fière d‘avoir réussi à en faire autant, mais en même temps je pourrais pas faire ça chaque semaine, pcq j’étais quand même biiieeeen crevée à la fin 😅🙈
@@anouschkafabre Hahah tu m'étonnes ! Et c'est vrai que ça doit être un challenge en plus quand ta passion est aussi ton métier et que tes créations doivent correspondre aux attentes des clients. Il faut jongler avec tout ça 😵💫😂 Après tkt t'as pas à culpabiliser de pas pouvoir tenir ce rythme là toute l'année, la peinture c'est tellement un domaine où des fois il faut se laisser s'inspirer, vivre, s'enrichir d'expériences pour mieux s'exprimer à travers ses œuvres. Et tu as vraiment un univers artistique qui est bien à toi avec une manière de jouer avec les couleurs qui est hyper harmonieuse ! 😊 Et petite question est-ce que tu as déjà fait une exposition de ton travail ? (j'essaye de capter des expériences là dessus pour pouvoir monter la mienne et réfléchir à comment faire connaitre mon travail, je suis pas très réseaux sociaux mais bon je vais devoir m'y mettre je pense 😭)
@@carolinemanet3578 oui c’est sur! Quand j’ai l’impression d’être ne plein „art block“, généralement c’est parce que j’ai passé trop de temps à produire et pas assez à vivre/me laisser inspirer! Alors une expo fait partie de mes plans pour l’année prochaine, j’ai eu une proposition d‘un endroit et d’ici là il va falloir que je produise pas mal de peinture - histoire que ça ait un minimum de gueule hahaha. J’ai passé bcp d’année a dessiner que sur tablette ou ordi et je ne veux pas exposer que des prints 😊
Hello Anouschka =D I am Katha, also an artist with a full time job based in Germany with a RUclips Channel ^^ I follow you some time now with my other account and I love the relaxing vibes of your studio and your friendly, light artworks :) I think I found you for your video about the studio makeover ^^Have a really nice day!
Hi I’m Amanda, 33, artist who also shares videos on youtube about art, work at a gym, mother of 1 with 1 on the way, from Scotland, uk! Lovely video, thanks for sharing!
Hey! I'm Upasana from India. I'm an artist. I have a full time job as an art educator at a primary school. But my main goal in life is to become an independent artist showcasing my art to the world. I have a RUclips channel where I show the process of my paintings and talk about art. I'm so glad to see your work. Keep up the good work❤
Hey Upasana - what a lovely name btw ✨🫶 so fun, I wanted to become an art teacher as well at a certain point, but took another path at the end 😊 Will definitely go check out you Channel!
Hey there! My name is Kursten & I live in the very Southern United States. I also work full time at a library, go to school full time & have a full time life. I love creating art but haven't been making much time for it! Looking for inspiration & motivation!
Hey Kursten! Love the wording „full time life“ hahaha. Just so true 😂 I know how hard it can be to make time for art 🙈 Sometimes it helps to just have a sketchbook where you don’t pressure yourself to make „good“ art in it. Beeing creative is not about the result 😊 That helps me a lot. And also Havin a RUclips Channel was very motivating for me, cause you guys keep me accountable in a way! So thx for that 🫶✨
I'm Mel, German living in Luxembourg and I'm a freelance translator and community manager but I also try to build an art business :D I do have this RUclips channel, there's only one video so far because there was a lot of stuff happening in the past weeks but I hope I can get something up more regularly soon. Happy to connect
My name is Jessica and I’m originally from Los Angeles but have been living in Dallas Texas for a few years now. Former art teacher looking for creative inspiration ❤
Holà María 🧡 Don‘t be sacred, I promise that one, the RUclips community is soooo heartwarming and welcoming and two you will get used to filming yourself/your process and it’s gonna get easier and easier. The most difficult for me was just to take the step and start 😅 If you need any help or have questions about it, just ask me. You cam also write me a dm over on insta if you prefere 😊🫶🏼
My name is Liza, I am from Riga, Latvia. I have a channel where I write for animations. I learn to draw in private lessons. And I also have a telegram channel. Thanks for the video!
Thx for sharing 🫶🏼 and if you call yourself a „wanna be artist“ I’m sure you’re already one!!! The word artist shouldn‘t be as „heavy“ as we make it sometimes 🤗✨
I'm not sure but I think that you're using acrylic paint. If so, you really shouldn't put it down your sink 😮. Maybe wipe it out and throw the towel/cloth into the garbage ❤...just saying 🤷
It’s „acryla gouache“. I whipe away as much as I can to minimise the paint that’s going down the sink, but in the end I scrub the rest with water, would not be able to get everything off otherwise 🤷🏼♀️
I’m an oil landscape painter living on Kangaroo Island, off the coast of South Australia. I’m 53 and I’m painting for the first time in 30 years! @trish.artpages
Let's get to know each other in the comments! 😍🧡 Extra question, if you don't wanna share something too personal: what's your favorite snack? 👀
I'm a writer in Belfast Northern Ireland. Just about to start an art degree tomorrow! At 35!!
Oh whaaaat?? So so cool!! Wish you aaaaall the best for your degree, you got this 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Nice, enjoy the ride 😊

Hello! I’m Hannah 👋 watching from British Columbia, Canada! I’m an artist and a new RUclipsr 🙈 I have watched your videos for a little while and love your art style and such. Thanks for another great video! Love your studio set up too!! It’s dreamy!! ❤❤✨
Ooooh thank you so much and cheers to beginning your channel!! I‘m going to take a look at it tomorrow in my lunchbreak 😊
@@anouschkafabre 🙈🙈♥️ thank you!!
RUclips suggested this video to me on my homepage and I totally see why! I am also vlogging on my channel about being an artist with a full time job. It's so nice finding another person like me. Can't wait to follow your journey! Subscribed. ❤
Hey Jessica, so happy you stumbled upon my channel (thx RUclips 😂)! Can’t wait to dive into yours 😍
Hi ! Just found your channel from Sophie’s discord 💗 i’m a freelance illustrator based in the south of france ☀️ i’m excited to have new creators to follow here ! i started my channel a couple months ago 🥰
Yay to opening your channeeeel 🥳🥳🥳 Hope it’s going well for you! Will definitely check that out 😊 And thanks for taking the time to comment 🫶🏼
Thanks for sharing 🎉 So curious what camera and lenses you’re using in the opening shot, it looks so nice!
It’s nothing really special- I use the Sony zve 10 with the Kit lense, wich I think is a good beginner vlogging set up, but I recently bought an ND Filter! I‘m not an expert, but it works like a sunglass for your lense. That way I can mess with my aperture and leave the lense as wide open as I can, to have a bokeh effect, without overexposing my shots. It was an affordable way for me to test out if I wanna up my game and Maybe buy a better cam or lense, cause the nd filter just costed me like 30€ 🤷🏼♀️😊 Kinda happy that you pointed it out haha 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
We loved your vlog! Lovely :)
Thank you 😊🫶🏼
Hello from Finland 😊 working full time and on the side doing art when I have the time (now most of the time goes to video editing also as I try to record sessions also.. 😅). Nice relaxing video, great for lunch break chill. Nice weather in Germany, it is starting to cool down towards Fall in Finland and leaves dropping.
Heyyy 👋 Oh man, yes! Filming and editing also takes up suuuch a huge part of my time 😅🙈 The weather here in Germany was like really cold for one week (last week), but now it‘s getting better again. Hoping for a soft and golden autumn 😊
I am a seasonal worker (holiday home host, btw you're welcome if you want to visit Italy!) so I'm not able to enjoy Summer nor have time to draw (and I'm sad because early Summer has the best light!). The rest of the time I dedicate a lot of energies on my master's degree (ending in November, I hope) and a lot of other activities I just can't leave. Most of the time I'm out of energy, but being a jack of all trades is one of my traits since I was a kid, so I think I just have to close some important cicles and better manage the new time I'll have to draw again
Oh and my fav snack: spicy roasted corn ❤✨
Oh no, I‘m sorry that you had a summer full of work! And thank you for the invite 😊 - where in Italy are you working? You can also dm me on Instagram @anou.fabre, if you don’t wanna talk about the location here.
I think it’s always a question of priorities and sometimes our focus is on something else than making art and that‘s totally okay. Dont pressure yourself too hard. Already seems like you have a loooot on your plate 🙈 Wishing you all the best for your degree 😊😊😊
P.S.: spicy roasted corn? Yuuuum!!!
Your dog is adorable!
Tula says thank you hehe 🐶🧡
Hello!
I am an artist in Utah, USA.
I have tried to do RUclips in the past and am going to try again soon. (There are still some older videos up.)
Love this painting you did, it's beautiful!
Thank you and yaaaay to giving it a second try!! 🥳 Wishing you all the best for that and tell me when you get your first video out 😍😍
@@anouschkafabre You're very welcome! And thank you, I will! (Taking the process slow so I don't stress myself out. Haha!)
Hello !! I’m a fashion designer, and an artist from France ! I love charcoal and oil painting, I started my RUclips channel few month ago :) I love your content !! 💖
Saluuut! Thanks for taking the time to comment 🫶🫶 Congrats on starting your YT Channel, I know how hard just starting is 😅 will go take a look at it later!!!
hi there I’m from Kuwait I love to watch relaxing videos that motivates me to paint I liked your video .. I’m a computer engineer and a mother of 3 and an artist 😁 I try to find the time to do my art as much as I can with my busy life ❤️
Hello helloooo, seems like your days must be full full full too 😅 Sending you courage and motivation 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Hey Anouschka! Great video!
I made this account because I am realizing how important art is to me, even though my job has nothing to do with art. I haven't posted anything yet on my channel (still debating, dealing with insecurities and whatnot). I'm really interested in seeing how other people manage their personal art with their full-time job, which is how I stumbled upon your video! Great channel, I immediately subscribed :)
Heyyy thank you so so much 😊 If one day you jump into the RUclips water, come back and tell me! Would love to watch your first video! The start is always the most difficult 🙈💪🏼
I’m Megan. I’m a scientist living in the UK. I love drawing landscapes, plants and animals as often as I can (most days of the week). Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen. And I love Berlin ♥️♥️. Thanks for sharing cosy art videos 🌟 Your art is beautiful :)
Hallo Megan 😊👋 Thank you so much! I‘m impressed, that you manage to draw mostly every day 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
@@anouschkafabre I draw simple things like a plant or bird to relax. Only on the weekend or when drawing with friends would I attempt something that takes longer than ten minutes to draw, like a landscape for example. So I am a doodler! 🙃💫🌸
Hey Anouschka... I'm ossie from Malaysia. I'm an artist, and I love landscapes paintings. Nice to connect with you here ❤
Hey Ossie, nice to „meet“ you too! So fun to see where ya‘ll coming from 😍😍 I‘ve actually travelled to Malaysia in the past and I loooooved it!! Went to Kuala Lumpur, Taman Negara and then to a small island called Kapas. Soooo so beautiful ✨✨✨
❤

Hey I'm Crystal. I love to colour, sketch, I am beginning to learn with water colour pencils, paints as well as Mix media, Acrylic paints, oil pastels and Gouache. Next year I'll be doing a course in Visual Arts to build up my skills and portfolio. I'm also a parent of four children, but two are usually with their dad and the other two are with me full time. Making it work. ;) I am from Australia, Newcastle NSW. Thank you for sharing.
Oh wow that sounds like you have a loooooot on your plate rn 😯 Hope you don’t pressure yourself too hard and I wish you all the best for your visual arts course! 😊😊
@@anouschkafabre I like being busy and learning new skills, it keeps me interested. Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to me. 😊

I’m an artist, I’ve been drawing since I was a kid. I’ve been painting for 4 years now I love it. I wish I could be a full time artist.
Yeah, beeing a full time artist and living Off of our art is such a big Dream for a lot of us. But I‘m often questionning if it wouldn‘t be to much pressure for me, if I tried 🤔 But maybe it would be the best thing eher - I don’t know Haha
Hello! I’m an artist from Russia and I also make RUclips videos 😊 Been following you for quite some time and really enjoy your personality and your art!❤
Hey Marina 😊 Thank you so much! Will deeefinitely go take a look at your videos today 🫶✨
Je viens juste de découvrir ta chaine par cette vidéo. C'est drôle avant même que tu dises que tu es à moitié française j'y ai pensé direct (mais ton anglais est très fluide) entre français on se reconnait bien à l'accent 😂J'adore ton contenu et ton naturel !
Sinon je suis étudiante en chimie sur Rennes, et la peinture à l'huile et une de mes passions je prépare une exposition et j'essaye de m'inspirer de l'organisation d'autres artistes peintres car la vie quotidienne, les études/job et l'art...Il faut trouver un équilibre dans tout ça ! 😄😂
Saluuut! Contente que tu sois tombée sur ma chaîne 😊 Oui c’est sur, pas facile de trouver l’équilibre et j’ai tjrs et encore du mal moi même! Genre cette semaine là, j’étais super fière d‘avoir réussi à en faire autant, mais en même temps je pourrais pas faire ça chaque semaine, pcq j’étais quand même biiieeeen crevée à la fin 😅🙈
@@anouschkafabre Hahah tu m'étonnes ! Et c'est vrai que ça doit être un challenge en plus quand ta passion est aussi ton métier et que tes créations doivent correspondre aux attentes des clients. Il faut jongler avec tout ça 😵💫😂 Après tkt t'as pas à culpabiliser de pas pouvoir tenir ce rythme là toute l'année, la peinture c'est tellement un domaine où des fois il faut se laisser s'inspirer, vivre, s'enrichir d'expériences pour mieux s'exprimer à travers ses œuvres. Et tu as vraiment un univers artistique qui est bien à toi avec une manière de jouer avec les couleurs qui est hyper harmonieuse ! 😊
Et petite question est-ce que tu as déjà fait une exposition de ton travail ? (j'essaye de capter des expériences là dessus pour pouvoir monter la mienne et réfléchir à comment faire connaitre mon travail, je suis pas très réseaux sociaux mais bon je vais devoir m'y mettre je pense 😭)
@@carolinemanet3578 oui c’est sur! Quand j’ai l’impression d’être ne plein „art block“, généralement c’est parce que j’ai passé trop de temps à produire et pas assez à vivre/me laisser inspirer!
Alors une expo fait partie de mes plans pour l’année prochaine, j’ai eu une proposition d‘un endroit et d’ici là il va falloir que je produise pas mal de peinture - histoire que ça ait un minimum de gueule hahaha. J’ai passé bcp d’année a dessiner que sur tablette ou ordi et je ne veux pas exposer que des prints 😊
Hello Anouschka =D I am Katha, also an artist with a full time job based in Germany with a RUclips Channel ^^ I follow you some time now with my other account and I love the relaxing vibes of your studio and your friendly, light artworks :) I think I found you for your video about the studio makeover ^^Have a really nice day!
Uuuh a fellow German artist! Hey Katha, thanks for sharing 🤗 Can’t wait to go dive into your channel ✨🫶🏼
Hi I’m Amanda, 33, artist who also shares videos on youtube about art, work at a gym, mother of 1 with 1 on the way, from Scotland, uk! Lovely video, thanks for sharing!
Hi Amanda! Thx for sharing 😊 Will go take a look at your channel!! 🫶
I love the green flowy pants you wore with the white cropped tank! Where are they from?!
Love them tooo! They‘re like a perfect combo of chic and lounge wear 😍 the brand is called „urban classics“
Oh and I think the top is from the same brand, but I bought that one last summer, so I don’t know if they still have it 🙃
Really nice video! I am living in Mabank, Texas:….. have a great day!
Hey, thank you so muuuch!
your dog is sooooo cute 🥰🥰
Thaaaanks 😊😊 Love her tooooo
Hi I’m in California yes I am a artist like you lol 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Well then Hello fellow artist 🫶🏼😊
Hey! I'm Upasana from India. I'm an artist. I have a full time job as an art educator at a primary school. But my main goal in life is to become an independent artist showcasing my art to the world. I have a RUclips channel where I show the process of my paintings and talk about art. I'm so glad to see your work. Keep up the good work❤
Hey Upasana - what a lovely name btw ✨🫶 so fun, I wanted to become an art teacher as well at a certain point, but took another path at the end 😊 Will definitely go check out you Channel!
@@anouschkafabre ♥️
Goodmorning! 💖
@@suzanneboily5224 👋😊
Hey there! My name is Kursten & I live in the very Southern United States. I also work full time at a library, go to school full time & have a full time life. I love creating art but haven't been making much time for it! Looking for inspiration & motivation!
Hey Kursten! Love the wording „full time life“ hahaha. Just so true 😂 I know how hard it can be to make time for art 🙈 Sometimes it helps to just have a sketchbook where you don’t pressure yourself to make „good“ art in it. Beeing creative is not about the result 😊 That helps me a lot. And also Havin a RUclips Channel was very motivating for me, cause you guys keep me accountable in a way! So thx for that 🫶✨
Hi from Scotland 💙
Hiii! So nice to see where you all come from 😍
I'm Mel, German living in Luxembourg and I'm a freelance translator and community manager but I also try to build an art business :D
I do have this RUclips channel, there's only one video so far because there was a lot of stuff happening in the past weeks but I hope I can get something up more regularly soon. Happy to connect
Hey Mel! Here‘s to getting your first video out 🥂Always the most difficult one 😅 Will definitely check it out!!!
My name is Jessica and I’m originally from Los Angeles but have been living in Dallas Texas for a few years now. Former art teacher looking for creative inspiration ❤
Ooooh so cool! When I was younger I wanted to become an art teacher 😍 And I‘m still very interested in the idea of teaching one day!
Hola!!! Im María and im studying fine arts in valencia and planing to start a yt chanel of my art projects but kinda scared
Holà María 🧡 Don‘t be sacred, I promise that one, the RUclips community is soooo heartwarming and welcoming and two you will get used to filming yourself/your process and it’s gonna get easier and easier. The most difficult for me was just to take the step and start 😅 If you need any help or have questions about it, just ask me. You cam also write me a dm over on insta if you prefere 😊🫶🏼
@@anouschkafabre thank you so much for your kind words!!!
Hi I am huda ,iam from algeria ana iam an artist too
Hey Huda! So nice to see where you're all coming from, thx for sharing ☺
My name is Liza, I am from Riga, Latvia. I have a channel where I write for animations. I learn to draw in private lessons. And I also have a telegram channel. Thanks for the video!
Hey Liza! That sounds so intresting, on my way to go check it out! 🫶
@@anouschkafabre Thank you !

From Iowa in the USA. RUclips channel : Witchy Hocus Pocus, wanna be artist.
Thx for sharing 🫶🏼 and if you call yourself a „wanna be artist“ I’m sure you’re already one!!! The word artist shouldn‘t be as „heavy“ as we make it sometimes 🤗✨
Hmm, I wonder if other artwork on the phone can be considered referance... I don't think so. It's called copycating 😁
Oh nooo you got it wrong, I drew the reference image myself on my IPad! Didn't replicate any art from somebody else of course!
@@anouschkafabre ooh! Cool! Thank you for correcting my mistake. Oops. I am sorry! 🤦♀️😘❤️🍁
@@jaroslavareads no problem at all 🫶🏼😘
so many comments 🤯
Yes, craaaaazy 😅
I'm not sure but I think that you're using acrylic paint. If so, you really shouldn't put it down your sink 😮. Maybe wipe it out and throw the towel/cloth into the garbage ❤...just saying 🤷
It’s „acryla gouache“. I whipe away as much as I can to minimise the paint that’s going down the sink, but in the end I scrub the rest with water, would not be able to get everything off otherwise 🤷🏼♀️
@ofkiru another fellow artist
@@ofkiru Hey Kiru! Will go check out your Channel aaasap! 🤗
I’m an oil landscape painter living on Kangaroo Island, off the coast of South Australia. I’m 53 and I’m painting for the first time in 30 years! @trish.artpages
