I can’t even tell you how thrilling it was to see the FLOWERS painting w/lovely card on this video and then look up to see it framed on my wall. Thrilling and oh so satisfying! Thank you again Sandi. (And Grady for the excellent packing)
Hi Sandi, so happy to see how my painting was prepared by you for travel to our home. We are so happy to have a piece of your art work. It sure won’t be the last. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Grady and Cooper.
I’m so glad you liked it Laura!!! It really changed a lot didn’t it!!! I still can’t believe I get to have one of my paintings hung in that gorgeous house of yours!!!!! Thanks again!!!
I get so excited for your new video each week. You never disappoint and I love seeing the pets. I never mind when Cooper scratches or makes noises; it's real life and that's one of the things that make your videos so charming.
Congrats on your sales, Sandi! It’s so wonderful that you have collectors and are getting to experience that kind of validation as an artist. I enjoy so much your passion for what you create and the care and thought you put into your process. It’s so inspiring to watch! Thanks so much for sharing your light and creativity with us! Big hugs from Oregon! -Tara Kate
Yes, Sandi --- thanks for showing the "sold" paintings before mailing --- they are wonderful! I'm sure the buyer will enjoy them on their walls! Now back to watching today's vlog...and learning new information and inspiration!!!
Love you " Purple flowers. " look like Iris. Purple Irises...lovely. the vases @ different shapes and " The Jar " view. Reminds me of the very first Specs. Soo kool. Love collages too! Thks Super Sandi
Sandi, I LOVE your new purple painting of the flowers! Of course, I am passionate about the purple family. Congrats on these sales. Your rockin' it sistah! Your pieces are always so amazing and inspiring!
Thank you Sandi, I been binge watcher your videos for a few months since I found your channel. So enjoy watching you paint with such enthusiasm and your positive attitude. Love your art.
I was ridiculously excited for the Friday video!🎉 This was great! When you were looking through the jar it made me think "Sandi needs one of those cool antique magnifying glasses in a big brass stand!" You could set it at varying distances for really interesting visual perspectives. I love when your cat makes a cameo appearance. 💗 He looks like such a sweetheart!
Hi Sandi,That has to be one of my favourite videos of yours,it had such a cosy feel to it,I almost felt like I was sat in your studio with you having a coffee😀Your work gets better and better,and that was a great tip about trying out compositions using cutouts,so glad you didn’t add the dark shape in the foreground,it wouldn’t of balanced,but it know that feeling of ....what if.Keep the videos coming Sandi,I look forward to them so much.Bye the way,I’m 4lbs heavier but loving using the peanut butter jar as a view finder 🤪🤣🤣🤣xx
Thank you for sharing your art and your artist's life with us. I have learned so much from you. I appreciate everything from your supply hauls, to your tutorial tid-bits to seeing your work on your walls, to learning your process and the list goes on. Thank you!
Yay! Purple in a painting ;) It looked great. I always try and leave a comment for support (ant YT algorithms) as I know the boost it gives to read lovely comments. I was going through some of my watercolours to see which ones I wanted to mount and sell in the shop where I have some artwork. Even though they're all just sitting in a drawer right now, there are some which I think "hmmm do I want to let them go?" But I guess if they make you money - and more space to paint! - then we should be happy to see them go to new homes where they will be seen.
Much love, Sandi! I always get so happy and inspired from watching your videos. It's so interesting to see the whole process and all the hard work you put in! I love that the buyer took the time to film the unboxing and showing us it's new home. It's such a wholesome and happy ending of this process. Thank you for making my Friday.
I guess it says something about how exciting my life is when I'm awake at 1:30AM and think, "Oh, it's Friday! Sandy will have a new video up today." I agree with the change on the painting. The pink diamond seemed to have regular edges compared to the other shapes, and it was right smack in the middle. Good change. I like how the purple and indigo work together without competing, and then the yellow and red kind of pops out. :) The white and neutrals are nice, too. You're reading my mind! I like how you lightened/brightened the lemons!
Thanks and congrats on another beautiful painting finding a new home! how wonderful…I absolutely love the purple flower painting. I tried the glass jar thing and couldn’t do it because I wear glasses already. I tried to take my glasses off and it just distracted me. Too fun. Dont you love when the fur babies come in. I have many fur babies. I love watching your channel for inspiration so thank you again! I look forward to a patreon channel or online class one day. Happy painting!
If I wore glasses I would definitely try taking them off and painting. But I could see how it could take time to get use to also. Thank you for your kind comments!
You keep inspiring me to be looser in style and not so precious with paper and my intentions. Then I pick up a brush, grip tightly, and go for more perfect then my skills support lol. Beautiful work and my favorite RUclips channel. You are a delight.
I am so happy I subscribed to you....it took me like for ever to do it, all of 5 minutes, lol!! I have learnt so much from you in the short time I've been watching your videos and I've been watching so many of them!! You always make me smile and have given me sooooo much inspiration I can't wait until my first ever lay flat sketchbook gets here....and I promise I'll share pics for you to see my work when I get to using it!! Thank you for being you!!!xxx
Sandi your paintings are just jaw dropping beautiful I loved them all your videos are something I look forward to how glad I am to have found your channel thanks for inspiring and sharing Sandi 💜😘🙌👌
Congratulations! That painting was so beautiful. I love the before it leaves to after it finds a place in the new home. Also the painting with the purple 💜 is lovely. That is my favorite color. 🙂
Oooh seeing you make those cute and beautiful Thank You cards is such a super way to show gratitude 🙏 this video was so lovingly edited that the owner of this painting now has its story too ❤️❤️❤️
I really feel like you are honing in on your style and I am totally here for it! The purple flower painting is dope and you should make little prints of your paintings because I would love to have a couple of your prints I can pop up on the wall in a 4x6 frame.
Sandi, love your videos and your paintings. I love how you explain and bring us along in your creative process. Congratulations on sold paintings. You’ll reach 10k very soon.
Hi Sandi, so happy to see your channel grow. Way back I remember in one of your video you were not sure of if you should continue with this. So gad to see you come this far. There are so many valuable bits you share. Wishing you all the best. Love from a fellow artist!
Hey Sandi, been loving your videos this year! When this video dropped yesterday I wasn’t able to watch it immediately but I clicked it and liked it straight away because I know RUclips bumps videos which get likes in the first hour after posting! Keep up the good work, you’re such an inspiration 💜
I subscribed along time ago…lol I love your paintings and it’s cool to watch you tinker around and think of funny things to do like looking thru a glass jar when you paint. Who’d have ever thought of that?
Oh, I so loved that painting that you sold and enjoyed watching as you made changes to it. Thank you for taking me along and as always making my Friday perfect.
It’s so nice to see the entire packaging process! I love the amount of effort you put into making sure the work stays protected. Love the yellow tape, too!
I love that this video was, how did you say it? Jam packed with paintings. And btw, you are really good with purple!! Have you noticed that when you are working in the "old studio" your Pet Producer is Cooper, but when you work in the "new Studio" your Pet Producer is Finn? And for a while now I've been wondering why you are in the dining room more often. It's the sunlight!! Fun as always, Sandy!
I know I'm going to love it.. but won't watch until I have my coffee cup in hand and ready to give Sandi my full attention... always making my Friday better Sandi..!!
Sandi, I so look forward to your videos that I continually check my youtube to see if you have loaded the latest. I have re-watched several of your videos because they are 'feel-good' and encouraging. I got commissioned for a painting and am waiting to finally hand it over and I'm nervous as heck. lol My husband will not let me take it out of packaging in fear that I will 'mess' with it. (He knows me so well). Your love of painting and your positive'ness is contagious. Thank you and God bless.
@@sandihester Oh, it was! It was like holding my breath. I was so grateful when she and her husband said they liked it! Your videos helped me hang in there. Thank you!
Love your channel Sandi and an old subbie. You’ve been such a great inspiration to me and were the boost I needed after 2020 to get me back to painting again!!!! A million thanks!!!!
I always look forward to Friday’s because of your videos. I feel like it’s the inspiration I need to help me loosen up and paint 🎨 I love the videos of people sharing where they are placing your art! Questions-what varnish do you use? And also what size bamboo brush do you use? And are they the Winsor & Newton ones? Thanks!
I use all types of brushes. I have links in the description with the products I use in each video. I use to use Gamvar varnish but I’m looking for another varnish because they’ve changed their formula
Commenting to help you get to 10K by the end of the year. That breaks down to less than 150 new subscribers per week, which is completely doable! Even if you don’t make it you will be that much closer and certainly will in January. I’ll be watching :).
Your paintings for thank you cards are so generous and look amazing! Thanks so much for sharing about packaging! p.s. I kept looking for your new video yesterday afternoon and evening. Finally I realized it was not Friday yet! 😊😂
since you like matte/satin paint, you would probably love either Milk Paint. or, even better, Casein. It's like a cross between Milk Paint, Gouache, and Acrylics. it's made from milk protein. it's very matte. it can be resoluble if applied thickly but will dry insoluble with time. it can be applied to any non-flexible support. if applied to stretch canvas it may crack or flake off unless applied thinly. paper attached to a board or canvas attached to a board. it can be buffed to a satin finish with a soft cloth. Jack Richeson Shiva Casein is the only brand that I know of, at least in the USA. you would probably like them. Dick Blick sells them and Jerry's Art-a-rama probably does to. you may have tried them before.
Hi Sandi! do you have any videos where you cover what type of boards you use to paint on and how you're prepping them? I've purchased some wood boards that have warped on me and I'm curious if I'm just getting the wrong wood.
I hate shipping too! It was part of a couple of my jobs in the past so maybe that's why. And even if you package it really well it can still get damaged. And I hate telling clients the price of shipping even though that's out of my control too. I don't even charge a "handling fee" for all of the products that I use in shipping because of that. I've streamlined the process a bit but still. Would love one of those label makers for shipping labels but not in the budget.
I'd like to ask one question about the red plexiglass that you sometimes use to look through to better assess the tonality of colors. I have green plexiglass. It doesn't seem to me to work as well as black and white photography. Some colors it definitely shows lighter than they are. Is it possible because I have green glass, does this red glass "work" without problems?
Another interesting video, and a good reminder to subscribe and give the thumbs up. I am subscribed, but have a tendency to watch videos when I’m not logged in, often streamed to the TV. I just gave your video a thumbs up, and I’m pretty sure it’s the first time I’ve ever done that for any video. It’s not been on my radar and I think the fact that you can watch videos without being logged in must throw off the algorithm….? Are the views by people who aren’t subscribed/logged in and don’t “like” the video “counted” in some way? Hmm….

Loving the jar idea! Also repainting paintings in different mediums .
Thank you Sandi, I been binge watcher your videos for a few months since I found your channel. So enjoy watching you paint with such enthusiasm and your positive attitude. Love your art.
Thank you Darlene!!!! I’m so glad enjoying the videos so much 🥰
I was ridiculously excited for the Friday video!🎉 This was great! When you were looking through the jar it made me think "Sandi needs one of those cool antique magnifying glasses in a big brass stand!" You could set it at varying distances for really interesting visual perspectives.

That’s a great idea!!! I’ll keep my eyes out for one at antique shops! So glad you liked the video and Finn’s appearance!

love this!! When she opened that painting it made me cry... so beautiful in it's new home!!
Awe - it got me too Kristen!
Wow I LOVE that purple flower painting!! I really enjoy how the vase looks more realistic against the more abstract pieces of the painting.
Thank you!!! So glad you like it!!
So awesome and fun! Congrats Sandi! 👍🎨💙
Thank you Elizabeth!!!!!
Yay! Purple in a painting ;) It looked great. I always try and leave a comment for support (ant YT algorithms) as I know the boost it gives to read lovely comments.

Thank you Gillian - comments do help in multiple ways so thank you! And yes to paintings going to new homes!
Your painting with the purple flowers is just perfect. You should definitely make some prints of that one. Just beautiful! :)
Thank you!!
GOOD FOR YOU for using purple!!
😃
So fun to see all of your gorgeous paintings!!! Wow!!!
Thank you so much!!!

I LOVE your new “purple” painting! My favorite so far. And the one you sold was wonderful too!
Thank you so much!!!!
Sandi, love your videos and your paintings. I love how you explain and bring us along in your creative process. Congratulations on sold paintings. You’ll reach 10k very soon.
Thank you Ana!!!
You and your art and surrounds remind me of our Australian artist Margaret Olley. Came here via Iris Impressions last video 👍
I love how Margret lived - if I ever live here alone I’ll totally be taking over the whole house as an art studio!
@@sandihester I was thinking that when I saw your room! I would do exactly the same here! 😁

That is funny and I think you’ve nailed it with my side kick producers 😂
♥️♥️♥️
Those lemons add dimension and texture. Or just enhance with " Venetian plaster " then paint the plaster...love your ideas 💡
I know I'm going to love it.. but won't watch until I have my coffee cup in hand and ready to give Sandi my full attention... always making my Friday better Sandi..!!
I’ll take full attention any time - thank you Marie!
Thank you 🎉

It's like a cross between Milk Paint, Gouache, and Acrylics. it's made from milk protein. it's very matte. it can be resoluble if applied thickly but will dry insoluble with time. it can be applied to any non-flexible support. if applied to stretch canvas it may crack or flake off unless applied thinly. paper attached to a board or canvas attached to a board. it can be buffed to a satin finish with a soft cloth. Jack Richeson Shiva Casein is the only brand that I know of, at least in the USA. you would probably like them.

Love also painting " Mosaics " styles I want to paint different " Floral with Cherubs" thks for inspirations
Hi Sandi, found you not long ago and love your work . Have you done any video on how to price your art ? Thanks so much
Thank you Kathleen! I’m probably going to do a “business” video next year and pricing will be in that!
Hi Sandi! do you have any videos where you cover what type of boards you use to paint on and how you're prepping them? I've purchased some wood boards that have warped on me and I'm curious if I'm just getting the wrong wood.
I'm the same with packaging and shipping. It takes me sooooo long to wrap and make the box. I procrastinate in that department.
Yes - I hope I can get more stream lined!!!
I hate shipping too! It was part of a couple of my jobs in the past so maybe that's why. And even if you package it really well it can still get damaged. And I hate telling clients the price of shipping even though that's out of my control too. I don't even charge a "handling fee" for all of the products that I use in shipping because of that. I've streamlined the process a bit but still. Would love one of those label makers for shipping labels but not in the budget.
Yes - shipping is a beast!!!
They are very good
♥️♥️♥️!!!!!
Is there any special sealant for your paintings. ???🎉
At 10:20 it looks like the cat is also contemplating the lemons...
I thought the same thing 😂
I'd like to ask one question about the red plexiglass that you sometimes use to look through to better assess the tonality of colors. I have green plexiglass. It doesn't seem to me to work as well as black and white photography. Some colors it definitely shows lighter than they are.

@@sandihester thank you!
You have no idea what your videos mean to me. ♥️
I’m watching you right now! Lol
Slightly out there question, but what became of the peanut butter jar?
Can you tell me how you decided how much to charge for your work? I'm thinking about selling mine at some point but it is very overwhelming.
I’ve always charged per square foot. Start out low and move prices up as the demand goes up.
I'd buy one of your paintings just to get a boat card... ❤️
Awe - thanks Cecile!! Hopefully one day I’ll have cards for sale
Omg am I the first comment???😭😭😭
I just hoped I could be the first one...already know I am gonna love the video
Same lolol
I’m so glad that’s how you feel!!! 🙌
You guys are the best!
Hi Sandi. Can you give me referrals or recommendation of a " Projector" just adding 🎉 new tools
Are you always this happy?
Another interesting video, and a good reminder to subscribe and give the thumbs up. I am subscribed, but have a tendency to watch videos when I’m not logged in, often streamed to the TV. I just gave your video a thumbs up, and I’m pretty sure it’s the first time I’ve ever done that for any video. It’s not been on my radar and I think the fact that you can watch videos without being logged in must throw off the algorithm….? Are the views by people who aren’t subscribed/logged in and don’t “like” the video “counted” in some way? Hmm….

Liked the video but you didn't really show any art tools. 😕
