What a beautiful space to be in.
Thanks Joanna!
So amazingly cozy. In my humble opinion, the only way to improve this studio would be in the corner where there is a basket, I would put a dog bed and the goodest girl could be next to me while I doodle and paint away. ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for the tour!
Awwww, that would be lovely!
Your studio literally looks like a hip fancy art store. 😮
Ha ha! Years ago I had a very functional and unaesthetic workspace, but gradually I started collecting furniture and storage that really appealed to me (I've had to do it very slowly) because my surroundings really seem to impact how I feel. I'm so thankful to have this space to work in; it makes me feel inspired. :)
How fun.. thanks for posting..!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you. :)
What a beautiful studio, Natasha. How wonderful it must feel to work and relax in such a lovely space. Your home is incredible--I love Victorian-style homes, they have so much history.
Thank you so much!
Watching on my TV, sipping morning coffee... Imagining I've been invited to your beautiful room. I can't express how much I love studio tours!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I love them too! Thank you for watching mine, I hope it made for a nice start to your day. :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt Yes you did! I sat down to work on my sketches! :D
Looks so cozy and beautiful to work in. I really need to tidy up my space. My art creativity space is with the family lounge =( it looks like a truck has hit it during our 3months lockdown....with kids. But I can't blame them entirely lol
I can relate - it took me a full THREE DAYS to rearrange, tidy, and clean this room before I filmed the video, as it hadn't been done properly for months! You should have seen the 'before' version. ;)
Such a lovely and cozy work space!
Thank you! It really is so cosy - especially with a fire in the wood burner on a winter's afternoon. :)
Seeing your work on a large scale made me realize how powerful it is - thank you for sharing!
Thank you! The painting on the easel is still very much in progress, but I'm looking forward finishing it and sharing it soon. :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt Looking forward to it!
What a beautiful space 😍. Love the desk.
Thanks Maria! I'm so excited to have this desk - both beautiful and functional. :)
Would love to see the rest of the huge house!
That's really Dominic Bellamy's territory when he starts his own channel! ;)
I need this desk in my life
It really is brilliant, I'm so thankful I have it.
Your studio space is so lovely :)
Thanks Eve! :)
Love the new setup for the studio, your voice over is also so relaxing to listen to.
Thank you, Naomi!
You have a beautiful studio. Happy painting!
Thanks so much, Wendy!
You are so lucky to have such cozy and beautiful space to paint and create. I love everything about it! And again, those Winsor and Newton brush vases. 😍
Thanks Selma! Ah, the W&N vintage brush vases - they really need to bring those back into production!
I love your studio💕 It is beautifully curated right down to the succulent pots. And that view - I would never leave that window. Flexispot was quite generous with the desk - perhaps you can update us as you use it for durability. Thanks for sharing your lovely, creative space.
Thanks so much! I'll definitely be featuring the desk and talking more about it in future videos. I'm loving it so far! I'm now enjoying standing up to paint and I'm feeling the benefits of not sitting so much while I work.
Just stumbled upon your studio tour and it's FINALLY one in which I can visualize myself working! It is the biggest inspiration I found so far for my own studio. So perfect! 😍
That's so lovely to hear, thank you! I really appreciate your kind comment. I'm planning on filming another studio tour in a month or two as I've made a few minor changes/improvements to the way I store my supplies as well as adding a couple of things that have improved my level of comfort. I'd like to go more in-depth next time and show different aspects in more detail. :)
Your studio looks wonderful, Natasha! And your view is such a dream! Super inspiring video, as always 💗💗💗
Thanks so much!
I definitely needed this video to motivate myself to sort out my studio. Can’t believe how organise and tidy your studio is, l must give my studio some serious attention. Natasha l notice you don’t have a lot of art work on your walls, do you have a special space for all your collections. Can you do a videos on your favourite art collections. Can we see some of your Christmas shopping haul for this year , last year videos was amazing l got lots of ideas it was fantastic. Thank you for all your honesty and generosity sharing your art with us. 🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴🦋🦋
Wow, so beautiful and cozy. I’m sure when you have an art block, it won’t last long because there is so much inspiration around you. The decor and furniture are so well balanced. My compliments to you! Enjoy.
Thank you so much! It really is a very inspiring place to work. :)
The paint cloth was soo relatable! Your studio view is divine! I would like to move somewhere mountainous when I finish my studies here in Sri Lanka! And I should really say this, you, your and your channel are really important for me in coping mechanisms. Hope you’re doing well there too!
I hope that you're able to move somewhere mountainous! I really love being surrounded by hills here. Thank you for your kind words about my channel, I'm so happy that you enjoy it! Take care. :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt thank you sooo much!😊
Yay! I was looking for inspiration! Great timing and lovely studio as always!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful studio. That view from your windows is stunning. I’d be far to tempted to try and have all desks faced looking that way. Lol and those floors are gorgeous.
Hi 👋 Natasha’s fiancé Dominic here,
I’m a big fan of the view too, and I’m glad you like the floorboards!
If you’re interested, we stained the floor with ‘Clay’ from Mylands Earth Stain range of wood stains.
We were so pleased with how the floor turned out that I used it again when we decorated the Breakfast Room (which looks out over the same view) and I’m planning on using it in a few more rooms in the house too!
The only downside is it does smell quite strongly when one first applies it, so something to do in warm weather when you can leave all the windows open!
Otherwise I really recommend it!
It’s really lightfast, made with natural pigments, and gives a room such a tranquil feel, and no, I’m not sponsored by Mylands! 😄
I honestly would have had the main desk by the window if the radiator wasn't there! I look out at that view so often. It's great to just stand there with a cup of tea and watch the birds (and sometimes the squirrels climbing the trees!).
What a gorgeous , cosy and inspirational space! ❤️
Thanks so much, Sarah! 😊
The view out of your window is amazingly beautiful! How inspiring your studio is.
I know, I never tire of looking at that view! So lucky to be able to see that from my window each day. :)
Your studio is so beatiful and cozy Natasha, thank you for sharing it with us! :)
Thank you so much, Gabriela!
I love this updated studio tour!
It’s been so enjoyable to see how this space has evolved and the stylish ways in which you’ve finessed your art supplies storage solutions!
It is such a tranquil and cosy place to be.
I was very impressed with how solid the new desk feels. It’s so easy and fun to adjust too! I’m sure that it’s going to make the world of difference to your back, and hopefully help you avoid a few migraines as well. 🤞😘 xxx
Ah, thank you! Yes, the new desk is a heavy beast, isn't it! Hopefully no camera-wobble when I film on this one. ;) I'm looking forward to when the weather turns cold enough for us to light the woodburner, and maybe even stick a couple of baked potatoes in the oven at the top! 😘 xxx
@@NatashaNewtonArt Oh yes! It will be fun to be able to cook in the wood burner again! Let’s pick some blackberries for a crumble! 😋
Yes, I’m sure there will be less camera jiggle with the new hench desk! 🦾😁 xxx
@@notesinthemargin CRUMBLE TONIGHT! Let's get out in the field and get picking! 😘 xxx
Beautiful art studio and a delight to the senses.. Natasha I love the energy and vibe that view from the window that worked in lived in feeling everything is sweet and gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your beautiful spirit xx
I'm so pleased that you like it so much - thanks Deborah! xx
You uploaded this at exactly the right time for me, so relaxing to wind down before bed.
New desk looks fab! Thanks for the discount code. Your whole studio is so neat and lovely, what a great creative space!
Thanks Debs! It doesn't always look this neat, ha ha! Sweet dreams. :)
Adorable studio!!! I love all your supplies and the general colour palette of your work! Also, i love that book shelf! Please could you do a video on your favourite books? I am intrigued with the rainbow set of books!
Thanks Devanshi! Someone else suggested a bookshelf tour and I think that's an excellent idea!
Yes a book tour video would be wonderful- please🎉 @nathasha
Thank you for sharing your studio and storage. I’ve found out when I could afford to grow my art supplies, trying to find comfortable with easy access grew more difficult. I found pots, like you use, to be my favorite way to store my brushes on my desk. I need them where I can see them so I don’t reorder before I need them. If you like something once, you will like it again… probably every time you see it! (My kitchen pot is red) Thank you for the butchers tray way to store the brushes you are using most. I’m now using my butchers tray to my desktop to hold the brushes I’m using. I’ve been trying to find a safe way to store my brushes while they’re drying. Now, they can live there too! I do love the rolling carts, they’re awesome and I decided they are better in multiples. Congratulations on the new FlexiSpot Standing Desk! That should help you a great deal. It’s so easy to get caught in work we forget to get up and move around. Your space is wonderful and cheerful, a perfect setting to create your beautiful works of art!
Thank you! The butcher's tray was something I bought recently from Jackson's with the intention of using it to mix large quantities of acrylic paint, but I've found that it's more useful to me on the desk at the moment. I love that it can store the brushes I'm using without having them rolling all over the desk, and I can use it as extra mixing space if needed! I've found that I can never have too much storage space in the studio - it really helps me to keep things organised. When I didn't have enough, there was just so much stuff everywhere and I'd lose things etc. I really couldn't be without the art carts either!
I would love a book tour!! You have some gorgeous editions there!
What a lovely space! I’m so happy I came across this tour tonight. So perfect😍😍😍
Thanks so much, Fawne!
So so nice and cozy!!!
Your studio is wonderful!
I wish to have a studio, too, one day. As well enough time for spending in there :-)
For now I have a tiny desk in our living room. But that's totally okay since I'm totally lacking of spare time.
So now is a good time for collecting nice ideas for my own future studio 😉
Enjoy your studio, Natasha!!
Ah, thank you so much, Angela! I used to work at the kitchen table before I had a studio and then I finally had a couple of small rooms (at different times) before this one. I feel very lucky to have such a lovely room to work in. Have fun collecting ideas for your future workspace. :)
What a cute little room! I love the view out your window and all your cute little plants. Thanks so much for letting us into your world. ❤️
Thank you! Isn't that view amazing?!
Such a lovely studio Natasha. I found this video really soothing. And will adopt a few of your ideas. The desk looks great. Will have a look at it online. Thank you so much for sharing once again.
Thanks so much, Andrea! 😊
Love the plants along the ledge!! I'm in the process of collecting little plants for my studio too! I started making watercolor botanical art : )
I'm so, so glad I found this video! Your paintings are so lovely and atmospheric and I can totally connect them to the energy of your cosy studio. Your voice is so relaxing, by the way. But most importantly, that view! It looks like you're up in a castle surveying your forest kingdom. An absolutely lovely space. I immediately subscribed, haha.
I love that - my forest kingdom! It is a bit like that when I look out onto the trees from up here. :)
It’s super tidy and organised! Also your style and colour palette are reflected so well in the decor! Beautifully done! It’s so useful to have multiple desks, I do everything on one small desk and it gets a bit mad during product releases! 🙈🧡
Thanks Alyona! I think artists' workspaces often reflect their work and colour palette - and even their dress sense sometimes! I can imagine that it's difficult to do everything on one small desk. My old desk/table will be used in a small room adjacent to my studio that will become the room where I pack all of my orders and do admin/computer work etc. I am finding it difficult to do everything in one room - it quickly becomes a chaotic mess at times like that. By the way, I cleaned, tidied and reorganised this room for THREE DAYS before I filmed this video - that's how bad it was!
I love the aesthetics and neatness it's an absolutely beautiful studio I've seen this a few times I love it 💜
That's so kind, thank you! x
Such a lovely studio, seems like a very cozy place to work.
Learning how to stand and paint was an adjustment for me, but I feel like my posture is improving because of it. Thank you for taking us on tour of your lovely cosy studio. The view out your window is the best.
I painted standing at the desk yesterday and found it so comfortable! I think it's the fact that you can adjust it to the exact height that suits you personally. Really excited to know that I don't have to endlessly sit anymore, which was damaging to both my posture and my health. That view is fantastic, isn't it?! I never tire of looking at it.
The studio looks really amazing with all the changes. I'm so glad you can see how much will benefit your well being. I love Arnold the Armadillo!!!so cute!!! ,love the idea of a studio mascot!!! I like too that you have some crystals on your desk too,I have crystals around my studio too. the new art cart for all your watercolour palettes is a great addition too. The colours you have painted the walls really works too almost lke defining different areas of the studio. My studio space is compact too, so it's lovely to see how you have arranged yours.The book case is a beautiful piece of furniture it has the look of driftwood. I have a few old trunks in my studio space too. I wonder if the Flexi spot desk might be an option for me with my new physicality,especially after recent spinal surgery.,the fact it has the potential to transform how you work I think struck a chord with me because I can see it could do this for me as well,I stand at my easel,but don't actually have a desk in my studio. I love the view you have from the studio with the verdigris coloured roof. Such a lovely gift to get a glimpse behind the scenes so to speak and to haer the reasons for how you have configured the studio so it works in the best way for you,really insightful. It will sound strange but the aesthetic of your studio space does reflect in your work,the light in your studio is realy fantastic and this makes itself visible in your work,sorry not finding the words very well,but hope you can see what I meant.
Art carts are he way to go for sure!!. The bin in my studio is actually a ceramic bread bin, in that famous blue and white striped (devonware? or cornish blue?),I smashed the lid years ago,but loved the bin so much I kept it and it became my bin.
It's great to haer that you and Dominic are doing more things together as well. I think the desk as wel as helping your overall well being will also really boost your creative well being too. I hope the newly configured studio really fuels your inspiration on your new creative journey. (matt)
P.s the work in progress in the easel looks intreaguing as well...... and Ilove stone you painted the hand on next to your photo of David Hockney.
Isn't Arnold adorable?! I bought him from an Etsy seller earlier this year. I just fell in love with him, and I felt like the studio needed a mascot! The desk is incredible - I would highly recommend it. They're so well-built - very heavy and sturdy. I can't get over how easily and smoothly it goes up and down, and I love the fact that it remembers your favourite sitting and standing heights. I'm looking forward to not spending as much time sitting as I think it's causing me so many health issues. I hope that you're continuing to recover well - I'm sending lots of good thoughts and good vibes your way! :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt I think once I have fully recovered and recovered from my spinal surgery,a stansing daesk might actually be good for me in the future,sitting for long periods of time does Impact your spine and posture ,I have had simmilar back and neck problems to you all my life, so once I can have the cage/brace and metal rods reomved from my torso,I think a stnding desk like this one would be good, as standing stetches and strengthens the spine. A few artists I follow here on yoytube have invested in this desk and all say how much it has benefited them. I will talk to my partner Craig about his and go from there but something tells me it would be an investment in my own long term future and welbeing/creative wellbeing. Arnold is definitly Adorable!!! my studio mascot is one of my Lego minifigures from my hige collection of them, it's of an artist with a brush and a palette to and paint splats on his clothes.
I think a studio mascot is an essential!!!
@@avirtualcanvas7584 You've really been through so much with the various health issues you've been dealing with. I really hope that things get easier for you from now onwards! Sending good vibes and best wishes your way. :)
@@NatashaNewtonArt Thank you,I'm doing okay ever day is a day of progress for me,I'm in a good place (and importantly for me in a good place creatively) and I'm happy and as you have Dominic at your side to love and support you I have my partner Craig at my side to do the same for me.Sending good vibes and wishes to you and Dominic too.I also sent you a liitle email that I hope will make you smile.Watching your brilliant insightful and inspiring videos have also been and are a part of my recovery too they really are,so thank you for that gift. (matt)
@@avirtualcanvas7584 You're very welcome, Matt! I saw your email and replied yesterday - love your studio mascot! :)
Nice and soothing upload thank you Natasha Newton
Thank you!
Beautiful studio to create your amazing art work.
So far this one is THE BEST 💜 Really loved it 😘
Thank you so much! 😄
Natasja, beautiful studio! A tip for your standing desk: consider standing on a wobble board, this forces you to rebalance constantly to avoid strain one one side of your back.
Thanks Karin! I've seen people using these and am considering getting one, because I have a problem with my lower back sometimes from an injury years ago. I'll look into it further! :)
What a wonderful space and view you have! I can only imagine that it helps inspire your lovely art 😊
The view from the window is always inspiring! And I love how it changes so much with each season too.
Oh so tidy!!!
So lovely!
Thank you! 😊
Such a lovely, soothing video. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Sara!
Your studio looks amazing Natasha, and I’ve got my eye on that desk, as I too get a lot of neck and shoulder pain 😢 xx
I worked for about 2.5 hours yesterday afternoon on a larger painting standing up (which would have been time I would have just been sitting at my old desk) and I found it so comfortable! The fact that you can adjust it to just the right height whether sitting or standing really seems to help. I literally feel your pain with the neck/shoulder issues. xx
@@NatashaNewtonArt It sounds brilliant, I feel sorry for my neck sometimes 🤣 xx
that looks like a great studio, nicely organized and easy to work in 😀
Thank you! It doesn't look anywhere near this neat most of the time though, ha ha! Although since tidying it up and getting more storage, I'm hopeful I can keep it looking this way now.
bookshelf tour PLEASE :)
What an excellent idea!
@@NatashaNewtonArt :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
You’ve created such a positive vibe in your studio. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me to keep working at doing the same with my own studio corner.
Thanks Linda! :)
The Collins pocket guild to the sea shore is both beautiful and a good way to get a accurate ID on organisms. It style of identical is known as a key, it has a statement on a feature and you follow through depending on the organisms has till you get to a identification. I’m a marine biologist and the main book we use for lab id (Handbook of the Marine Fauna of North-West Europe , edited by Peter Hayward and John S. Ryland) used the same system. The Collins book may use the old names for things, the ranges will be wrong and it is missing so newer stuff but it is so far the only book I can find which has a keyed approach to flora (plants) in the U.K. waters and have success identified so very weird sea plant with it (I did a Google to check the naming and get a photo to verify but that was just to prove to someone else)
So pretty, Natasha. Let us know how you do with your desk. I too suffer from back pain, and I can’t paint very long at my desk despite a brand new desk chair.
I'm sorry to hear that, Mariangela. I will let you all know how I get on with it. I'm so thankful to have it!
Absolutely inspiring. Every time I watch one of your videos, I’m inspired to dust off my paints and brushes and get to work!
That's so great to hear, thank you!
In addition to the sit/stand desk, have you considered a small desktop easle for you smaller drawings etc? I do digital work and it makes such a difference to have my drawing surface elevated and angled so I am not hunched over my table. I think attaching the paper to a drawing board and setting it on a small tabletop easle would make a huge difference for you.
I have one! It's tucked under the desk behind the photo board that looks like a marble table top! I don't use it all the time, but it really does help and it's going to be even better to be able to use it while standing now. :)
I’m sorry to hear about the pain and the migraines. ☹️ Those are awful.
Can you do a tour of your books? I’m particularly curious about the looks-like-a-series, on the upper left shelf of your desk? I have a friend who gets to know people by looking at their bookshelves, and from the looks of yours I think we’d get along just fine. 😊 May I recommend “Bright Earth” by Phillip Ball, if you haven’t read it already? It’s a history of color, paint, ink, and related.
Thanks for the book recommendation, Julie! I haven't read that one yet. I'm hoping to film a bookshelf tour sometime soon, so keep an eye out for that! I agree; you can learn a lot about people from their book collection. ;)
I love your studio so much! It must be a pleasure to work in there
Thank you! I feel very lucky to have such a lovely space to work in. :)
What a beautiful space!!!
Thank you!
love the desk.
Lovely!
thank you you have inspired me
So beautiful 😍
love that table it would i bet help my back pain .... probably oxy condone which i take for my cancer pain it just makes me so much less pain
I'm so sorry to hear about your illness Deborah, that must be tough.
Loving your studio tour! The way our house is, I have my workspaces in 3 different smaller spaces. It's not good for consistency and keeping on task. Some definite changes are overdue for me.
As you may know, Jackson's is such a great art supplier and is so popular in the U.S. that they now have a U.S. website but the merch still has to come from the U.K. I've never ordered anything from them, and of course, the shipping is a good bit higher to ship over here. BUT I've heard people say that because they have such good prices, that they believe that offsets the higher shipping costs to the U..S.😊 I've browsed around the Jackson's site before, so I'm sure to find some tempting buys there and order from them one of these days.
Hi Nancy! I can imagine that it's difficult to have your workspace in several smaller spaces. It's definitely beneficial to have everything I need to be able to work efficiently around me and within arm's reach. And yes, Jackson's have so many products at great prices. Their own brand range of art supplies is very good too. :)
I have a question, why do all my succulents die ? I have an aloe I have had for years. It's the only one out of close to 20 succulents that has lived over the years. The rest die with in a month. Yours look so healthy
I've had my succulents for a few years now and the most important thing is to give them enough light (some varieties need more than others) and don't overwater them! They HATE being overwatered; if anything you need to neglect them a bit. I'm going to repot one of them today as we realised that he's standing in water (I had thought he wasn't getting enough, so I over-compensated and accidentally gave him too much) and although he looks good right now, his roots will rot if I leave him. I also have another one that suffered badly when I moved him as he wasn't getting enough light, so he's now back in his favourite place on the windowsill! They're fussy little critters. They also need proper succulent compost and good drainage in their pot (I put stones in the bottom). I hope that helps you a bit!
A beatiful ART STUDIO
Thank you so much!
Wow that's amazing ❤
Thank you! 😊
You are very tidy! 😄❤️
Could you do a video explaining the use and advantages of gouache vs. acrylic gouache? I have found that using gouache muddies my watercolors, so I tend to use for highlights only. How does acrylic gouache differ from acrylic paint? I swatched a new palette of handmade watercolors using a little landscape inspired by your work, so your name is now in my "book". I too find joy in simply being in my creative space and find it less stressful to start if I have everything around me ready to go. Your videos bring such joy. Thank you for sharing your work.🐑
Thanks Bobbie. I'll make a note to film something along those lines at some point!
Lovely video, I love it!😍
Thank you! 😊
hermoso🙌🥺 puro arte
I love your collection of vintage observer's book. I've got already enough references books but otherwise I think I'd just get some on Etsy ^^ I mean... I still might, they're books XD
Books are so addictive! I love being surrounded by them. They also make a home or workspace cosier, I think. :)
Aw, young David Hockney was so cute! Who knew.
He was a cutie pie! (Still is, in a slightly take-no-nonsense old man kind of way). :D
Your studio is really nice. I draw in Korea. ^^
Thank you so much!
Wonderful video!
Thank you very much!
I love your studio, thank you so much for sharing it with all of us....I'm in the process of redecorating my office space so that it's half work half art space which I need b/c I have overtaken my dining room table. Could you tell me where you got your bookshelf from please? I have found similar ones but not with the same finish which I really like a lot. Thank you :)
I think it was from Graham and Green (I don't know why I'm hesitating, but I'm worrying that I've misremembered!). I have another earlier studio tour where I mention the bookcase and where it's from. I got it in a sale. :)
What size is your room please, you have a lot in what seems a small room. Thank you for sharing
I'm not sure, I'll have to measure it! It's a fairly large room.
🕊
