We love the reminder to start with the big shapes first and progressively refining the image- that's such an important principle, and even the most experienced artists need a reminder to start general and get more specific as you go! Sorry to hear you're sore- it's just all too easy to ignore what the body tells us it needs when we're overloaded with work. The thing about taking a break is there's a part of the brain that's still engaged in making art, and those ideas will still simmering away in there until you're ready!
So true Blick!
Blick Art can you please really do something about your shipping costs to Canada? We are literally neighbours so some neighbour advantage would be nice plus it would be a great business move for the company. I really hope you consider it!
@@PunjabiHumanitarian We hear you. Unfortunately shipping costs are part of the customer experience that we have least control over, but we are always looking for the best delivery options that meet what artists expect in terms of promptness and reliability, as well as cost. Thanks for reaching out!
@@Blick_Art Thanks for getting back!
'Talens' is a company from the Netherlands that makes art supllies. Amongst other things (like your Art Creations Sketchbooks) they make 'plakkaatverf'. 'Plakkaat' is an old fashioned Dutch word for 'poster' and 'verf' means 'paint'. So: poster paint. Most artists and designers in the Netherlands would use the French word 'gouache' for that nowadays. It's probably on it to indicate that it's the sort of gouache that designers prefer. (Opaque) Some artists prefer a more transparent gouache that helps them to make gradients.
Ok….I’ve just finished watching…haha, you’re so funny!! Diapers for plein air painting…I can see the mass rush to Blick now. The endorsement potential: “Sandi Hester Painting Panties” or you could call them the “Painties”. It has a ring to it don’t you think?!! I hope you didn’t end up getting sick.
Oh my goodness this made us laugh sooooooo hard!!! Maybe I can do a painted version for them - like the one with the pooping tiger 😂
Omg. So funny and can't you just see it take off like all Sandi touches lol
Although i like watching you paint and talk about art i really your Christian music. May u always be strong in your faith and share it with others
😂😂 Between pulling your shirt out of the "dumpster," to your discussion about adult diapers and period panties, and the chair toot at the end, I am absolutely rolling on the floor! 😂 Thanks for getting my day off to such a great start! ❤
So glad it gave you some laughs 🙌❤️
Dutchie here, plakkaatverf is dutch for gouache 😄
Ohhhhhhhhh. No wonder I couldn’t pronounce it 😂
Happy belated 50th birthday to Grady! 🎉 I hope you recover well from your overuse of your arm. Take care.
As always love your art process & your realness of life sandy, especially as a woman in her 50's myself, i can relate to the underwear dilemma. By talking about it openly your helping to normalise the issues we women deal with x
Love this vlog format so much, to really see the bits of your artist life, making art in action, the ups and downs and your fun and authentic personality. And, I appreciate knowing your restocks bc that means they are tried and true! Thanks and take care.
Good point about showing the restock!
Glad I’m not the only one who goes out in public with paint on my clothes!
Just claryfying: Royal talens is the brand. Plakkaatverf is the Dutch word for gouache. Thanks for a great video, always inspiring; wow for throwing the party and happy birthday wishes for Grady!
Thank you!
@@sandihester you pronounced it very well by the way
Happy birthday to Grady.
Get some rest and heal. I really appreciate you sharing your artist journey with us. You inspire! Be well 🙏💪
Haha…love you Sandi. I mean, you are such an honest and real RUclipsr…even letting us know that you retrieved and put on a dirty shirt. That made me laugh! Thanks for taking us along on your car sketching outings…great idea for people nervous about doing art in public. Oh, and, a very happy birthday to Grady too!🎉 Oh my goodness! I wrote this comment and then watched the rest of this vlog…little did I know you were about to launch into a period panties/adult diapers discussion….hilarious!!😂😂
😂😂😂😂 this made me laugh
Happy birthday Grady 🎉
Heal and feel better 💜 You will be missed 🤗
I LOVED this Vlog. Great combination of studio onsite materials sketch review. And YOU!!! That Sandi magic.
Awe - thanks!!!! ❤️
Hello, I have been a subscriber for a little while but I have just recently been able to go back and watch some of your older video's. I love your video's but this one sealed the deal. (You are my people). I love that your so honest about everything. My sister and I forget the simplest words and have to run home and pray we make it. Those period pads are a great idea. Thank you so much for your hard work to bring these videos to us.
Do know that I went right out to buy some empty little pans to use my favorite colors when painting! You always inspire me with tidbits like not even getting out of the car some days…it’s permission which we all think we need❤️ Your energy is beautiful Sandy and please take all the time you need to rest our favorite tools on RUclips!! xoxoE
So glad you’re finding some inspo here!!!
Always a pleasure to see the gorgeous Sandi and her wonderful art. I always get a folklore type vibe from it.
Thank you Paul!
Sandie... your videos fill me with such joy. You're such a warm and wonderful person, I have had your videos on throughout the weekend catching up while I draw. I saw that your new Birds course is live - I will be buying that this week coming when I get paid, I have a love of drawing and painting birds so I cannot wait to join the class. I also hope that your wrist has healed. I once had RSI in my wrist (as a trainee accountant of all things, filling in pages upon pages of numbers) and it was not fun. I wish you a speedy recovery, your hands and arms are so important to your craft. Sending well wishes and warm hugs, Eve
Btw LOVE YOUR GLASSES! Thank you for being a bright light in a dark world. You gave me such inspiration... And long story short-I'm doing a painting for an orphanage in Luxor Egypt!! If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have had the self esteem to do it! Thank you
Ohhh that’s amazing!!!!
Wow I needed a visit with Sandi Hester… such a mental vacation. Thanks Sandi… chat away I’m listening with my creative parts lol everything else is too tired . Blessings
Ok Sandi…I’m not even all the way through this video but I love the music you overlaid. Beautiful! Also, I’ve got to thank you. I’ve signed up for Emma Carlisle’s and Sarah Dyer’s Patreon groups. Thanks to you. I just adore you and hope your spirits are up. Just love you to pieces!!
Ohhhhh awesome!!!! I love them both so much!
Yes please share info on the music! ❤
the painting of the red car 😍!!!!! I love your vlogs
Get well! And keep on painting, we'll enjoy then when you can
Thank you!!!
Really enjoyed the music you selected in this video. Might be the 4th time I watch this video. 🤓💕✂️🐞
Well, bless your heart out plein air in our Nashville heat. It’s nice knowing I’m not the only fool around town pouring sweat into our sketchbooks.
Thanks Sandi! I have been following you since way back. I remember when you almost gave up. Look at you now. :) I haven’t been painting and drawing for a while…was off on another art tangent. I need to come back to this. And take the time….your followers will be here when you feel better! :)
Happy birthday to Grady!
The excitement about the ducks 😄 Your cake looked amazing 🥰
Hello Sandi😍This is probably my most favorite video of yours🙈 Please take us along for more art trips in the car when you finish up resting well~ seeing all the used up art supplies gives me so much artist joy hehe, super inspiring how you found the time for all these things❤ also very glad to see a christian artist on this platform🥰 Looking forward to your next one!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Sandi, I just loved this video! You made me laugh so much. Happy 50th to Grady! I know so many people celebrating the big 5-0 this year. Sounds like you hosted a wonderful party. Enjoy your well-deserved rest! 🥰💜🎂
I just love that you talk to us like your best girlfriend about stuff like period panties ❤ You made my day 😊 So happy you had a fun birthday party for Grady. Thank you for sharing your art and your heart! Hope your elbow feels better soon.
So glad you enjoyed it!!
Wow, I didn't realize that you are a believer, too. Love that! ❤
I really love the ducks and the raven in your landscapes. Happy belated birthday to Grady. The birthday cake is beautiful. You are a real trooper in this crazy heat. 😊
Lovely music Sandie thanks ,also lovely party you planned for Grady so nice what you said about his friends that you treasure them as your friends too.
Girl you crack me up! “At least I didn’t sing.” 😂😂 love love LOVE your videos! Can’t wait to just get out there and do it tomorrow! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you!!!❤️
I needed this today!!! You are always so authentic and open, and that is so very inspiring! I can't wait to paint from the car -- I love that idea. I am in Texas and it is so HOT right now, so car painting for the win!!! Those duck paintings are so awesome!! I am so excited about your upcoming bird class. I have watched and rewatched both the landscape & acrylic classes -- so good! I pray you are well soon. Take time and take care, Sandi, we will be here when you are better! Blessings!
Yes - Texas is even hotter than here!!!! Bird class will be out at the end of next month 🙌. Thank you for purchasing the other two classes!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed them! ❤️
@@sandihester ❤
pulling up in different areas and painting in the car is such a fantastic idea, I might give this a try 😊
Give it a go!
Take care and get a good rest for your hands and yourself! ❤
This was possibly my favourite video you have made. ❤️
Salud, salud, salud!!! Espero pronto estés bien y puedas curarte! Descansa y vuelve cuando te sientas mejor 😽 gracias por ser tan buena maestra 😊❤💐🪴🪻🦆🪿
Hi. I love that you are honest,upfront and human. Keep sketching and painting. You inspire us a lot. Attitude is everything. Happy drawing!
Great work! I love the first song you put in the video! PTL! Hope you heal soon!
Take the time to heal. I recently had a sick break when I got a cold that just laid me out. Took 3 weeks to even start to feel a bit better. Guess I needed a break. I don't think people understand how much time it takes to edit. Anyway, you kept me company while rewrapping my handmade watercolour as I'm relaunching them under a different brand.
Yes, unless you edit you don’t know - it’s quite a lot of work
I love to sketch at Centennial Park too! It's fun to watch someone vlog from my neighborhood.
Ohhhh neat!!!
Super lovely podcast, I've enjoyed it so much and am so pleased to have found you! Have a really lovely break, enjoy x 🤗
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you...grazie mille e ...happy birthday😊
You never fail to fill my cup with inspiration! Thank you so much ❤️
Happy belated birthday to Grady! 🎉 🎉
I hope you heal quickly and that you didn't get sick from getting worn out. Take care!
I’m glad to hear it was inspiring! ❤️
Happy Birthday to Grady and as always I love how you inspire all of us to create. Take care of yourself.
I LOVE the Royal Talens Gouache - especially that olive color, it's one of my go-tos!I I have several colors in that brand and have been very happy with them. As always Sandi, thanks for the inspiration!
That’s good to know! I’m probably going to purchase some more
I loved your video!, being a woman & mentioning your unmentionables😂. Your cake was beautiful, & bet it was delicious, HB Grady🎉.
Taking us for an outing, twice!! New supplies, seeing sketches, and your new day packs!!
You have been a busy little bee‼️
Rest when you need to, am glad you’re in physical therapy for your arm, take good care of yourself, and we’ll see you when busy summer slows down a bit! Love ya ❤️
Love that bag! 😉 Glad to see a 5 million years long video from you. Please make more. Would love to just see you work, no editing, no anything… Last two weekends we went to the lake up in the mountains (Pinecrest Lake, California). Beautiful scenery! Thought about you and your outings. I hauled some art supplies with me since I wanted to do some sketching. The spot we landed on (we actually took a boat to a more remote area of the lake) was a bit tight in the sense that there was a bunch of vegetation and trees all around me offering only small windows to look through at the landscape beyond. I thought about some of your on location plen air paintings and how much I enjoyed the big, in your face, kind of trees and things. So I used the opportunity the location provided for me and sketched a couple of pieces that I absolutely love. I hope to turn those into larger paintings one of these days. Took plenty of photos to reference later, but nothing beats doing the actual sketches on location. As always, you’re an inspiration and a muse.
Ohhh how fun and way to go for gettin out there!
Yes. We do love the 5 million years long videos!❤❤❤
@@lleehome 😂🙌
Yay a Sandi Video!!!!!!
Sandi- First I just want to say those ducks are adorable! You should put those on repeat and put them on fabric. So Cute! Second; You should 100% take a few weeks off! Even if this week goes great for your elbow. Rest, recharge. It's not good to burn the candle at both ends. It's not good for health and it isn't conducive to making our best work when we do. I'll be praying for your elbow. 💞Don't feel guilty for taking a break you work hard; Truth and Love from one workaholic artist to another. 🏕📺
Thank you!!! So glad you like the ducks!
@@sandihester You're welcome 💕
The birthday cake turned out fabulous! I wish you a complete recovery & some nice r & r. 🌟
Thank you! It was soooooo yummy!
Hi sandi !! I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it !
You really inspires me to take the car, bring a few art supply along and just relax sketching. I’ve never done it before and I think it is a great idea
XO from France
Yay Sandies back.
Thank you Sandi for wonderful videos that help me after a stressful week.
I’m glad to hear it was helpful! So sorry about the stressful week 😔
Happy birthday Grady. You are the same age as my husband. I don’t comment on videos hardly at all but I had to say happy birthday. Love your work Sandy. Take that break and heal up.
And don't be gone so long❤. Love seeing your videos and we just love you Sandy. You always inspire me. I'd love to see you do some demos and play around with some brusho it's crazy stuff and it's really fun doing some abstract watercolor
Belated birthday greetings to Grady! That cake looks really yummy! Hope you feel better soon x
It was so yummy!
Sandi, you are such a refreshing, little ball of joy. Thank you for all of the great tips and banter. I savor these videos.
Love a Sandi art vlog! And Happy Birthday Grady!!! 🥳🥳
I’ll tell him Michael!
Happy Birthday to you, Grady! Your cake was gorgeous! I don't know how you keep your car seats so clean. Take care of yourself, Sandi, and rest up. Thank you for your great video.
Feel better soon.😊❤️
Please do have a break Sandi. I really must be inspired to grab a few minutes here and there to sketch. I've been moving house and the new studio is a mess of boxes, my dad just passed away as well and I've only managed to do one sketch in the past couple of weeks.Your sketches are always inspiring...love the ones with the geese.
So sorry to hear that about your dad! When I have seasons like your having its hard to find time to paint - on the other side of this you’ll get back to it - some seasons breaks are required
@@sandihester Awww thanks Sandi 💜
Great video, Sandi. I absolutely loved the painting of the elderly couple sitting in front of a car. The feeling was so authentic. Beautiful painting!
Thank you!
Happy birthday, Grady!
Take as much as you need. Have you tried to use your non dominant hand with the mouse? It’s good for your brain. It does take longer because your brain is building synapses. But take the Tim off anyway, because you need it! Big hugs!
Sandi you are always so inspirational to me! Thank you!
Thank you for what you do. Always inspiring.Always makes me smile. Take some time and take care of you!
Great video Sandi, just what I needed this week! :)
Sandy uncensored. I love it!!
😂
Of course if you need to heal, take time off. Love your paintings and the vlogs. Thanks for sharing, Sandi.
I really enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for sharing! ❤
thank you so much for this peek into your crazy week, Sandi! These are my favorite videos 💕 Please take a nice long break if thats what you need. xx
Hi Sandi, I have just found you on youtube and want to say WOW! 🎉 and thankyou! You have changed my outlook.
Welcome! And I’m so glad to hear that 🙌❤️
Wonderfulness explosion! Thank you❤
Thank you for making me laugh. You know what you were talking about so I won't repeat it! 🤣🤣
😂
I love all your duck and geese paintings. They're so fun. I hope your elbow is doing better and you're able to get a nice break. Thanks for bringing us along during your week.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! I love your vlog videos ❤ It came at the right time for me - It got me all fire up to get back to it 🥰 HAPPY BDAY Grady OXO
So wonderful Sandi! I hope you can get some helpful rest. Please take care of you! You do so much for us.
I absolutely love your video's. They are so inspiring and I need that🎨🖼
Thank you for another inspiring and fun video!
Great Sandi. Thanks for the inspiration. Paint and draw anywhere and anything you can. I need to use my sketchbooks more. 😊❤️
super inspiring ❤
Great real life video. I especially relate to trying to manage all the things while painting outside, and being exhausted after putting on a party, and your arm needing healing. Thank you for making these videos for us and hope you heal well.
Great video as always Sandi. I hope your arm recovers well, and that you can enjoy your time off. Also Happy Birthday to Grady, the cake looked so tasty btw.
Hope you heal Sandi, great video.
DYING a over the period panties😂! SANDIIII!!! Happy belated birthday to Grady! Watercolors will always be my first love for the very reason that they are so portable. Oh, and FUN! I hope you recovered from your sickies, Sandi, or never got it. There are better excuses to take a break, wink wink. I love your long videos. Post as many as you want! Okay, and now fork over some of that gorgeous cake! 🍰
❤️❤️❤️
Happy Birthday Grady! I'm glad the party was a success! 🎉 Everytime you said "period panties" I cracked up! 😂
🤗😂
This relates to me this week, puppy had a surgery scheduled and thankfully I had a small sketch book in my purse.. I quickly found lots of fun people behind the desk and cute dogs coming in and out.. thanks
For sharing Sandi and happy bday to Grady a fellow Leo..
Thanks again Sandi for making my Friday much better with art inspiration !!
You bet ❤️
I’m enjoying your sketches and can’t believe you took the time to share with us! You have so much going, thanks so much! Take a nap😂
I’m still watching but I’m enjoying it so much, your videos help me reconnect with the playfulness I lost a bit along the way.
The birthday looked lovely, congratulations 🎉
I’m glad you left it in, these are things that cross my mind too 😂
That’s so funny! Grady actually wasn’t too bothered by it 😂. Guess he’s use to me.
@@sandihester 🤣
BTW “Happy Birthday” Grady!!✨🎂✨ Wishing you health and happiness in your new year!! That cake looked delish! xoE
It was soooooo good!
Lol, you crack me up, Sandi! Awesome video! Thanks for sharing a peek into your life. 😊 ❤
Sandi, you crack me up! I love love your videos so always excited when you post. Your sketches are so beautiful too. Love the ducks. Take some time and heal totally okay. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Gwen!
Happy Belated Birthday to Grady!!!! Sounds like you did a fantastic job with his party. We are having high temps & humidity here in Ohio too. I can't believe you were sketching in your car! Take all the time you need to recuperate. I'm taking notes from all your Vlogs. As I am fairly new to your art & YT channel. I'm really terrible at the sketching but I hear your voice in my ear saying " Get the large shapes first & then the details." Love your work.
It’s really a great way to work - big shapes first
Hi sandi, you go girl its great you are being yourself you make me laugh some of the things yoou say, dont change.
Sandy, that WAs a busy week! I loved this video, and your joyful and honest reaction to life’s ups and downs. Please do take time off to heal . I know from personal experience that our bodies do not take kindly to being ignored especially when they are sending out clear signals to rest. God bless.
So true!
