*REGARDING MY SHOP UPDATE* follow me on Instagram for updates. I am waiting a bit to update my shop since some postal services are shut down right now, I will feel it out as time passes. Hoping to wait no longer than a month but there’s no telling how things will be. ♥️ thank you for your patience! I’m excited to have everything in my shop. ✨
Bingeing your videos and realizing that you are my ideal aesthetic. The lil banana hanging on your lamp is what did it for me. It’s like a combo of colorful minimalism (LOVE THAT, I don’t like neutral minimalism all that much), but also still cutesy without being too much? Teach me how you do it!
your sketchbook prints are so neat!! i originally thought they were gonna be sold as lil books at first glance. Have you considered making little zines??i think it would suit the work you do and be really cool :) as all always, love your studio blogs its really cool seeing your workflow and processes. hope you stay healthy + take care!!
I can't tell you how grateful I am for these videos. They've pulled me out of a weird analysis paralysis (with a dash of imposter syndrome) thing with my art business. You really inspire me and I hope you remember that if you have weird days too. You look great btw 💚
I’ve said this before but I just wanted to say thank you so much for being such an inspiration! It’s so calming and motivating to see your videos, you’ve been a huge part of my artistic journey! I never would have tried watercolors!💕✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I’m obsessed w that white polo dress omg. And I usually hate dresses. I wish I lived in the US cus w shipping and exchange rate the dress alone is like $70 cdn. And that’s with the discount 😭
I totally relate to the thing of the not knowing what day of the week it is anymore! Since my classes have moved online and I’m stuck in a house, the days are blurring together! 😅
i appreciate the recent vlogs so much 😌 all of my college STEM classes were moved online and the transition has been difficult but this makes me feel better 💓
All your Studio Vlogs leave me so motivated to actually launch my own website and start selling prints of my work ❤️ Thank you so much for sharing these ☺️❤️
How did you integrate other media’s together creating this mixed media art form? What media do you mostly recommend to beginning artists? What brands do you think are the best for beginning artist? P.S.your art is just beautiful!❤️🌺🌸🌼🌻❤️
Take a look at Arteza products. Never tried it myself but everyone say they are pretty good and affordable. Plus they have many kind of art supplies :) Start with cheap art supplies (not the crappy one of course) and experiment! Only you will know what you like to work with. Then you can invest in better art supplies.
Awesome advice! I would also recommend Arteza supplies, I think they’re very comparable to higher priced products. Pick a medium or two that most interests you! It really about experimenting ☺️
I have a suggestion: a huge part of what made my preferred mixed media combos is paying attention to what I like about others art. I'm a HUGE fan of texture. I've found my bliss more recently in watercolor and/or gouache with colored pencils or pastels. What you enjoy most in others work is a great tell on what you yourself might have in you. I'm sure that art that appeals to you is a sign of what you might want to try for yourself. Like someone said earlier, if you go with a budget brand research what works best. A big part of your success in using that medium is really being able to see how it works. A lot of cheaper brands tend to be so bad that they give a bad impression of the medium as a whole. If it helps, buy single items in your favorite colorway so you can try a good brand and all you are out is the cost of a couple of items should you not dig it. Also, paper...use a good paper. For years I HATED watercolor because i never used proper watercolor paper. Once I used a proper paper, it was like night and day, dude.
Do I have to comment on every vlog? Yes! I do. Just so you know I love your landscape arts. I’m going to need one for my home. So hyped for you to outsource your prints. They look amazing!! Hope we can get more for the shop sometime!!! Your try on was perfect. Love ya! Seriously been considering getting animal crossing but I’ve been rocking on Pokémon and I still need to beat so many gym leaders and catch em all ya know??
Suzy Hinnefeld I honestly look forward to your comments. Would love to make a landscape for you 😍 animal crossing is so fun, but I’m sure Pokémon is equally as fun! I don’t have it!
I visited my parents last week and they have that same rainbow mug. I used it every single day while visiting them because it's just so cute. Wonder where it's from lol
God! I had that too. My leg was hurting so bad when I put weight on it. I was using anything I could to take weight of it while walking. It got worse and worse over the course of a few weeks to the point that I couldn't even make it to the toilet except crawling. Turns out it was broken right through🤣 They had to put a steel rod inside. I used to love going for hour long walks with my norfolk terrier. He was so happy his ears never stopped flapping♡
So happy to watch your vlog as always. love all your prints and paintings. It also made me to think about art swap someday. I am not sure if you like my style though. Anyway hope you stay happy and healthy. oh, all the dresses are look good on you. ^^
Are you planning on restocking your deer “no” sticker? It’s super cute and it perfectly suits my college bound daughter’s personality. Btw, I so love your art!!
by bun they will be in my next shop update! I’ve postponed the update for a few weeks, since a lot of mailing has stopped in other countries 😥 will post about it on Instagram when they’re up ♥️
I love your videos so much, you’re such a cool artist and personnn! Everytime I see that you’ve come out with a new video I save it for the end of my day, it’s like a ritual ... idk lololol 😂😂
lol leigh thank you for these vlogs and for making me feel like everything is okay lol. also thank you for introducing me to handzy last year?? uhm I definitely bought that yellow dress because of you last year? and also that green dress just arrived today after I saw it on your insta last week?? lol. #supportlocal
Alexandra Helbing my black ones in this video are from lululemon they’re expensive but I wear them until they literally rip, so I invest. The cropped red and green ones I wear are from aerie, they’re called chill and play or something like that. Way better price range and super soft and comfy. I wear these until the bitter end as well.

Hi Leigh 🌞🌼 im a huge fan of yours, and I’ve been wondering how you create your gifs that you put into your RUclips Vlogs ? Soooo curious 😻🍓
Are the new postcards sets in your shop? I can't see them?
shan Sait I haven’t added them to the shop yet, I’m waiting on my shop update because some postal services are shut down right now.
Great vlog they are always so chill, thank for the company! you made me laugh! :)

Alexandra Helbing curious about this as well!
Alexandra Helbing my black ones in this video are from lululemon they’re expensive but I wear them until they literally rip, so I invest. The cropped red and green ones I wear are from aerie, they’re called chill and play or something like that. Way better price range and super soft and comfy. I wear these until the bitter end as well.
Think I'll paint some postcards and send them to my friends!
Are the prints towards the end ordered from Moo?
Anna Lisabeth they’re from awesome merch :)
