Studio Vlog: Navigating My Artist Week with Puppy in Tow!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- Join me for a peek into my life as an artist. But it's not just any week-it's the first full week with my new studio companion, my 12-week-old puppy, Willow! Follow along with me as I tackle everything from admin tasks to unboxing new art for my walls and, of course, plenty of painting, all while juggling puppy mama life. To be honest, I'm a little surprised by how well it's all going! I hope you enjoy the video. I just love seeing how other creatives navigate their days. Let me know in the comments if you find vlogs calming too!

Wonderful video. You are so gentle, analytical and articulate.
Thank you! I really appreciate your comment and encouragement to show up as I am 🥰
I love watching you Laura, you really inspire me and always manage to get me out of a block, so Thank you for sharing your time
You are so welcome! I'm so happy you find it valuable 😊
Keep these types of videos coming, Laura & Richie! ❤
Thank you, I will let Richie know. There's a bit more work that goes into the editing for this type of video so I will make sure Richie knows it's appreciated!
I love watching and learning from you. Your calmness really appeals to me and keeps me calm. Thank you for all you do for us! And I love your work!
Yes! I don't know if I had really tried to articulate that...but you are absolutely right! It is her calmness that makes me feel sort of safe, and like I can trust her to share in a way that inspires. She is so genuine.
Thank you, I'm so glad my videos have that effect. I watch quite a few RUclips channels for similar reasons-to bring a bit of calm and comfort into my day. Some people are incredibly soothing! It's so nice to soak it in after a busy day.
What a lovely comment, thank you 🙏
Such a lovely video, Laura! Thank you 😊
Thanks Rachel, glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful update Laura and thanks so much for the lovely review of my painting ❤ Great company also with your work and the other beautiful paintings you shared. Super cute pup too.
This whole vlog is delightful! I enjoy following you and admire your calmness with your precious new puppy 🐶
Thank you so much! I am lucky as she is quite a calm puppy - she suits me well!
Love this longer glimpse into your life. Willow is adorable! Fun to see what artists you collect. Looking forward how you decide to finish your new work.
Thanks Michelle, it is so interesting to see what artists purchase from other artists! I love picking up small pieces of art so I can have many pieces!! I hope to work more on the pieces in my studio later this week. 🤞
I love watching vlogs! I'd love to see more of the puppy too 😍
I'm so glad you enjoy them! Thank you for watching, the pup will certainly be appearing in future. She's become my studio buddy!
Thank you for sharing so much. This video was a huge inspiration. I love your work, Laura. ❤
Thank you so much! Glad it was inspiring 🎨
I love the Vlog format and continue to be inspired by your podcasts. Keep up the great work Laura and Ritchie! Willow is adorable🥰
Thank you so much! It makes me happy to hear that feedback!
Aww willow is so cute!❤
She's such a sweetheart!
I love this format! Looking forward to more.
Thank you; I appreciate the feedback. I've been hoping to take my videos more in this direction, as it enables me to get on with more of my own painting but still get a video out of it!
Thank you for sharing studio time. I have just moved into what I thought was my dream studio. Turns out I'm missing home and getting very distracted at the studio. Your video is very helpful.
I hope you've settled in! It's so hard to be away from a familiar space, or have to create a new familiar. Thank you for watching.
I loved this relaxed varied style of video! Willow is the cutest puppy ever, and I am so glad you are feeling good about the routine. I am also really enjoying you and Richie on the podcast.
Thank you, I've been a bit surprised at how it has all worked out. I think the timing was just right for us to get a puppy. We thought about it a lot before jumping in and it is much easier now than when we had our last puppy 12 years ago! Children are older; there's more time to devote to her and she's so easy to love bomb!!
GREAT video! Thanks so much! I feel so inspired right now (and have major "studio envy".) Also, your little Willow is so cute. I worked for a woman who had two dogs of that breed...favorite dogs EVER!
Thank you! Glad it was inspiring. I'm really in LOVE with Cavoodles now; she is so sweet and funny.
Oh what a delight ❤
Laura, I really enjoyed your vlog. I love you and your art. It feels like me and it makes me happy. Congratulations on your new family member 🐶🎨☀️
Thanks Tammy, what a lovely message to receive 💓😊🎨
LOVE the vlog style! And this new work is so cool! Inspiring for sure.
Thanks so much 😊 I love the vlog style too! It's such a fun process for me and feels like a way to connect easier with all of you 💖
I really enjoyed this video of your week in the studio. Felt so relieved to hear that you too have pieces that you started more than a year ago and haven't finished. Your art has developed in leaps and bounds. I just love what you're do now.
I believe as artists, we all have art that we set aside and don't care to revisit. I can guarantee we all find similar struggles and all get stuck in those messy middle bits! Thank you so much for watching!
Awwwww so adorable….hello from Dunedin FL US
Cuteness overload! She's so fun 🐶 Thanks for popping by!
Love the vlog and your podcast and everything you are doing. Love from Sweden ❤
Thank you so much! Lovely to hear that you are tuning in all the way over in Sweden 💓
YES!!! Super enjoyed this vlog. Please DO MORE of these. I enjoyed every moment. ✨🤍✨
Will do!! Thank you so much for watching! 💖🐾
Love that you’re on RUclips now! Thank you for the free content! God knows I bought everything else else you’ve put out but it’s still nice to get casual videos longer than Instagram! Thanks for all the hard work you and Richie do to keep us all inspired and engaged! 🎉
Thanks for all your support of my classes over the years! RUclips is a fun place for those more casual videos; we enjoy making them :)
Thanks for sharing your process. It is interesting and inspiring. Love your work!
You are so welcome!
Love the cut up part…..fabulous
Glad you enjoyed! I love cropping into larger pieces to find the best bits and turn one piece into many!
So inspiring... I work on a few pieces at a time and jump back and forth with various mediums and strata's so it was good to see how you work.
Glad that it was helpful for you!
Oh Willow is beautiful! I find your painting explorations really interesting, as are your podcasts. Thanks so much for sharing, have fun with Willow, I’m sure you are. That blue in the big painting really makes it pop!
Thanks for the lovely comment. I'm feeling good about the blue addition; I wanted to create a more complex colour palette. I will keep experimenting with it later this week. Love blues, pinks, and browns together.
Your puppy is adorable! Loved seeing your paintings in process.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and can't wait to work more on all the paintings I shared!
Omg she's adorable 😍
Thank you! 😊🐕🐾
I am in the middle of your Mixed Media art class. I am really happy doing all the exercises and paintings!! It has brought me so much joy. Thank you for showing the BTS in your own art making process. I think life is just one big work-in-progress.
I'm glad you're enjoying it! I am so happy to have you as a part of my little community 💖
Thank you Laura, I hope you do continue with the studio life Vlogs.
Willow is such a sweet puppy. It looks like she will become a great studio companion.
Thank you, she's already bringing so much joy. I definitely plan to make more vlogs as they are the videos I enjoy watching so it feels like the right direction!
I loved this! It was great to see how you go through you days and how you focus on your art process. I especially liked how you broke that watercolor up into mini’s to creat “new” paintings. Very inspirational.
Thank you so much!
Always enjoy vlog format and seeing how artists work nature’s inspirations into their work!
Glad you enjoy it!
The "weird" piece reminded me of Mathew Wong's art.
I really like your walking through the studio and the comments about your art. 💜💜💜
Thank you!
I really enjoyed your varied video. Thank you.
Thank you, it's good to get the variety in. I love videos with bits of everything in them too.
Yaaas! I love your work and have spent hours with you over the years listening to you, trying to paint your style and just loving hanging with you. You inspired me.
BUT, I stopped everything when I saw your Cavadoodle!!! I got my first dog at 6. Life hasn’t been the same since. Best thing I’ve done in maybe ever, ok not as great as learning to paint but my little Cheeky is my joy in life even though I have lots to be joyful about. It’s my cheeky that makes me laugh relish every bit of my time with her. ❤❤❤
So happy to have you watching, creating, and hanging with me! I adore my pup, they are truly blessings for us! 😊🐾
Welcome to Willow ❤ I LOVE both this kind of Vlogs and the magic art from other fantastic artists - thank you for a cosy Vlog full of inspiration and good vibes ❣
So glad you enjoyed, it's lovely to be able to share some of the art that I enjoy from other artists! I've been wanting to do that for a while 🎨
Love this type of content, and after losing my kitty last week it was so nice to feel joy watching your sweet puppy.
So sorry for the loss of your kitty, glad that you enjoyed this 💖
Love this vlog style video and getting to see your beautiful studio. Behind the scenes is always so interesting for creatives. Very inspiring to see your routine and environment. Thanks for the extra editing work Richie 🙌
Thank you, Richie went a bit crazy editing this as we used a different camera and had some issues, but he's such a trooper and he made it so good! I am exactly the same - love a peek into the creative world of other artists, always fascinating to me!
I love this type of episode! Super relaxing to watch!
Glad you enjoy it! Great feedback for me, I'll keep it in mind for future videos!
Willow is so cute😍
She really is so adorable. I can't stop looking at her and admiring her cuteness!! She has a cute personality as well. Sweet but cheeky.
Your new work is wonderful!
Thank you!
Welcome to your new family member; she is absolutely adorable! I've finally adapted to the dogs. They are pretty laid back now in their old age, but they want to go in and out and in and out, etc. However, getting adapted to the cats is a whole other story. My studio is in my home - the other side of the kitchen - and it's an open plan so there is no way to keep them out. The struggle is real having to put everything up and away every time I want to work. There are painted kitty paw prints all over the house. LOL. I love the vlog format!
Thank you, she has quickly become my best friend! 💖🐾
Thankfully, she is much less mischievous than your little kitties! I suppose they just want to help you create 😂 Thank you for watching!
Lovely vlog, Laura 😊 I rarely comment but this was a very inspiring one. Love to see your work evolve especially because I am exploring new directions with my own work and often bounce around from piece to piece as well. Love what you do and those artists you purchased from. Art is so diverse and we all have space to contribute because everyone is so different. It's exciting! And Willow? Well...enough said...such a sweet edition ❤ Enjoy every minute, they grow so fast. Look forward to more vlogs like this 👍🙏
Hi Melissa! Thank you for taking the time to comment. I rarely comment on videos as well so I know what you mean! I really appreciate the kind words and encouragement 🙏
Such a wonderful video, what a good pup ☺☺☺
Thank you! 😊 She's wonderful!
Love these vlogs Laura 🌸
Thank you!!
❤❤❤❤ Love these Vlogs. Thank you for sharing my artwork on this. I was so excited that you bought this one and that your son loves it!! He’s got good taste 😆. Love the puppy 🐶 spam too. Very cute xxx
Thank you! 😊💖🐾
Loved this vlog, Laura! Gave me some fresh ideas. Willow is adorable!
Thanks so much! 😊
Enjoyed this. Thank you.
So glad! Thank you for watching!
Really enjoyed this, you packed so much into 1 video, think I need to get a cuppa & re-watch immediately (& pass onto some friends too)
Take good care Laura x
I hope you enjoyed your cuppa! That's such great feedback! Glad to hear that you want to watch again and pass it on to friends! It was a fun video to make so hopefully more like this in the future!
Love the vlog, inspiring too! And Willow is so sweet 🌟
Thank you!! She is really adorable, so I am so glad we took the plunge and got a puppy. The timing was right for us!
Oh my goodness - what a DOLL!
She really is, the sweetest little face and she's tiny-well, at least for now!
I also wanted to say I took and loved your watercolor class and just purchased the Acrylic Exploration. Thanks for the great classes!
Laura, I so enjoyed this vlog. Congratulations on your new family member, Willow ....... she's a real cutie. The painting you purchased are wonderful and I'm with your son, the last painting you showed of the Australian flowers is beautiful. The very large painting you are working on is wonderful and the 4 painting on your wall are absolutely gorgeous. I love your style, don't change it. TFS you studio, home and family. Have a tip top day! xo
Thank you, I really appreciate your comments and it's a great reminder to me that it isn't really about changing my style; it's about building my confidence with it and getting in more regular practice, especially with the bigger pieces.
@@LauraHornArt Remember that, Laura. xo
Adorable. Traveling and missing my "puppies" so this was great
Thank you, I hope you get puppy kisses and snuggles soon. They bring so much joy!
Love the vlog style-and little Willow💞
Thank you so much!
Loved the vlog! Your work is so beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, glad the video was inspiring! A fun one to make and share. Hopefully more vlogs in the future!
I love your work in the corner. I having by 2.thanks
Thank you! I love those pieces too.
I love all your videos Laura. You are a true inspiration and so calm and well articulated. Can you tell me who the female singer is that you play towards the end?
Wow, thank you for such a lovely compliment. I am pretty sure the artist is Emorie for that song - trying to remember off the top of my head. We license music through Soundstripe, but you can also find her music on Spotify-really beautiful!
This format is awesome for artists
Fantastic to get that feedback, thank you!
I too have a new puppy in my studio. New challenges eh! Yes Canadian. Question for you , looks kie you're working on paper and illustration board perhaps. I assume you mount on cradle panels. The other question is using oil pastels in your wor, how do you seal them. I LOVE oil pastels but always had to frame under glass. I hate framing with glass. Thoughts please. Love your channel, very inspiring. Wondering how I can have a wee house as a whole work site studio.
Hope puppy life is going well for you! I am working on paper and I often sell these pieces for people to frame. You can mount on boards; you would just want to use quite a few layers of fixative, especially for the oil pastel. The Sennelier oil pastel fixative is quite good and then you could also finish off with a spray varnish to protect against UV.
Excellent ❤
Thanks 😊
We also have a puppy named willow! Awwwwe 😍😍
I hope your puppy adventures are going well! Great name 😉💓
How's the cat feeling about the puppy? I'm sure Willow loves him, but is it mutual? LOL! Great video; I really enjoyed it!
You are spot on. Willow is obsessed with the cat, the cat is perplexed by the whole situation but handles it quite calmly and maturely. It's his turn, though, as when he was a kitten, he pestered our old dog, Cooper, to no end!! Karma. I think in the end Willow and Spencer will be friends, each day things get a bit better.
Awesome watching…thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it
I have a mini golden doodle named Willie!
Gorgeous, our Willow has brought so much joy to the whole family!

Welcome!
Buying dogs. As if there aren't enough at the pound to be taken before being put down. Come on!!!
I appreciate your comment and did look at shelters. I did my research for a year before deciding this would be best dog for my family for various reasons. I don’t think that overpopulation is the problem I think it’s retention. More education and process is needed for dog owners. My pets are my world. My view is that people should be able to get the dog breed they want and that suits their lifestyle so long as they get it from an ethical place and are committed to giving it the best life ever which of course I am.
