I love the idea of her painting with Bob Ross! Thank you. Count me among the people are better because she lived. This has been the toughest year. I lost my mom just a couple of weeks ago and then this. I'm ready for 2024 to be behind us.
I found Cinnamon 10 yrs ago she taught me all about acrylics while you Lindsay taught me Watercolors . I hope that her channel will continue as I still have so many paintings to paint. She will be greatly missed I hope that we can still refer and watch her videos and that in some way it can help her family. I consider Cinnamon and you the best of the best in providing content for everyone and staying true to your original platform and commitment to helping everyone learn to paint. I will look for Cinnamon's skies every morrning , thank you Cinnamon for all you taught me. Lindsay hugs , and thank you for all you do.
One of Cinnamon’s tutorials was recommended to me early in my crafting journey. Not long after, she was on a video with Maymay and Vinnie. I went to Maymay’s first grand opening on my birthday and when I met Maymay, she told me I resembled her friend Cinnamon. I thought Cinnamon was beautiful and that comment has stayed with me through the years. I then met her at a Pinner’s Conference and was able to get a hug. Cinnamon gave me the courage to try painting, and her tutorials helped me get through my mother’s passing and my grandson’s stillbirth. She was love, and gave it so freely. I haven’t painted in a while, life has a way of getting in the way. The next time I’m at the easel, wishes for her family will be included.
Lindsay, I am beyond shocked, as you are, to hear the sad news about Cinnamon. When I started painting watercolor years ago as grief therapy for what was going on in my life, I found you and Cinnamon and found inspiration to create. You two were my first painting teachers as I began my watercolor journey. Even though she taught mostly acrylic, I found the positivity in her videos uplifting. My heart aches for her sweet family and the youtube art community. She will be missed.
We are all in disbelief here, it truly doesn’t make sense. I joined the Paint and Sip craze in 2013, and in mid 2017 wanted to learn to paint at home. Did my google search for sunflower acrylic paintings, found the Art Sherpa right away for her Van Gogh Sunflowers, became obsessed with watching all her videos on learning to paint. Learned way more than I ever did than going to a P & S. A month later, found her mom Ginger Cook and Angela Anderson. I soon found you. I now have closets filled with supplies, canvases and my own art studio in my spare bedroom. Cinnamon literally changed my life. Heaven has gained an art angel, 👼 RIP dear Art Sherpa 💕you were truly one of a kind, the kindest person I’ve ever known who cared so much about others. 🙏
I found you thru her and all the people she connected with. That micro community. I have been waiting to hear what you would say. I have had tears on and off. She brought light when it was dark. She taught us that yes we can paint and be who we are no matter what. She brought love and light into the world and wore her feels on her shoulders. I remember when she got so upset about Bob Ross and his birthday and I really did not know who he was but the curly haired painter with happy little trees. Until I watched a full episode and understood. Cinnamon is MY bob Ross. Lindsay you are my Saturday Chat Chat when I am getting ready to do my morning hair clients. You are my go to to watch water colors and all the other things. Cinnamon has left a legacy. A community. And I bet she is riding horses, Painting all the things and hanging with Bob. In case you did not know you are also a hero to us in this art community. Thanks for the Out loud words. Happy Crafting, Be Kind to yourself......
You're absolutely right, it doesn't make sense. I stumbled onto Cinnamon's videos back in 2016 when I discovered that painting was a way to save my sanity and bring peace to my spirit. It was actually because of her that I found your channel. In a world where social media can often be toxic, negative, and mean, she created a space (and community) of kindness, acceptance, and beauty. Even though I didn't know her personally, I will feel her absence deeply. The gift she shared with the world is invaluable. My thoughts are with her family, friends, and community.
I was shocked and heartbroken to hear of her passing. She was definitely a bright light in the art community and hopefully people will continue to find joy in her legacy. ❤
I watched her video and mentioned your name as an honest broker in giving reviews. It was an eye opening video. I recommend everybody watching sketches and scrubs regarding this subject.
I’ve been a student of Cinnamon’s for about eight years and I found you through her. Honestly, I have been in a state of shock since I heard the news. She was a brilliant light in an often too dark world. Like you, I can’t make sense of it in any way. My heart breaks for John, the children, and Ginger. ❤
I was in work on Thursday and popped on Facebook during my break and found out about Cinnamon. My heart broke. You are right that she was a light. She got me back into painting after my Mother passed away. HUGS to everyone missing her right now.
🥺 very sad to hear about Cinnamon. I have followed her since 2016 when my husband was in palliative care. Watching her videos really helped mye with my grief. She will be missed. BTW your thoughts on Brands was thought provoking. Would love a video on that. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the Sketches.n.Scrubs video discussion. She would be n excellent podcast guest to have his discussion. I was shocked to learn ow companie have acted. It's good thahe (and hopefully others) set boundaries and stand up for themselves. Your tribute to Cinnamon / Art Sherpa is an example of how much she was loved. Thank you. I wish you can enjoy a restful weekend and a less trying upcoming week
I am in tears! I have an acrylic painting on our wall with a heart on it that I learned from one of Cinnamons tutorials it will remain on my wall, Cinnamon was kind, generous and funny, she will definitely be missed in my world Rest in Paradise Cinnamon ❤
I was so sad to hear about Cinnamon. The RUclips art community will not be the same without her. My heart goes out to her family and the community that she touched so deeply.
I'm still in shock and heartbroken over Cinnamon's passing. I read about it in Marty Owing's post on Thursday. Earlier that day, someone had hit and killed one of the squirrels that visit my balcony, and then hearing about Cinnamon just shattered my heart. I also watched S&S's video, which was upsetting. All of it just made me want to cocoon and retreat. Big hugs. 💗
Hello Lindsay, I was also deeply heartbroken by the loss of Cinnamon. She was the first RUclipsr I followed and she led me to your channel. She helped fuel a desire to create and she will be deeply missed.
I am so sad, Cinnamon taught both me and my grandchildren so much. She made my life so much better. Awful for the family. My heart goes out to all who knew her. 😢 Thank you for being here and talking about her
So sorry to hear about the art Sherpa she was a wonderful art teacher hoping you are okay and ty for your channel lindsay I’m long time fan and supporter
I too am in disbelief and so very sad. She was indeed a bright light and it seems unbelievable. Someone wrote that whenever we see a rainbow know that Cinnamon is painting from above. If it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t be painting. Your words mean a lot Lindsay.
Oh wow! Cinnamon was one of the first people I watched on youtube yrs and yrs ago. She taught me so, so much. Cinnamon made it possible for me to even imagine that art, painting was a possibility in my life. She was kind, encouraging, supportive, warm and loving. What a monumental loss to this world. She will be missed. Rest in the light cinnamon. I love you. ❤
I have been in shock after seeing the post on Marty Owings page. I feel so bad for her family. I enjoyed her tutorials. I found her through you. In fact I had added a few more tutorials to try when I am off during Christmas. There’s really nothing to say. Everybody needs a stacking rainbow in their life. Thank you for your reviews and tutorials. I enjoyed the mixed media, it was refreshing. Thank you for sat chat.
It never makes sense. We are all here for a finite amount of time. Human beings' biggest lesson is to learn to love people while they are here. I just found out I have cancer. I have always been 100% healthy. I struggle to understand why. Prayers, peace, and good energy to Cinnamon and her family.
Omg noooooo!!!!!! I didnt know. I learned to paint with her, as sooooo many of us, without knowing it she gave me emotional support when I needed the most. Im crying my heart out. Had to take a pill cause this news gave a panic attack. Im soo so soooo sorry.... Deeply, deeply sorry.......
@@heathernolan902 The clonazepan is working, so Im calmer, but is so surprising to feel so much for someone I didnt even talk to. I guess is the same for many of us. She was a part of my life, the beginning of my journey and I feel a part of me died with her. I cant imagine what her family is going through. This is heartbreaking. 😞
Thank you for helping us feel this profound loss. Cinnamon (such an apropos name for such a bright spark) was the first art teacher I ever found and she did exactly what you described, she helped lift me when I was in a dangerously unhealthy (physically and spiritually) place by demonstrating that working with colors could literally heal. It’s something I just intuitively picked up by watching her. I screenshotted a picture of her last summer so I could show my hairdresser how I wanted my hair-it was platinum blonde with pastel-pink in the bangs, all short but a pompadour on top. I’m glad I have that picture and I’ve looked at it often just because it’s such a perfect picture of a person that makes me so happy. I hope Cinnamon’s lovely family and all of the lovely art students and friends can feel some relief from the enormous amount of love everyone is expressing. Cinnamon seemed like a person who no one in this world could help but love. I wanted to add that I loved Cinnamon’s watercolor offerings as well, they had a really fun energy that was also very calming as watercolor’s energy combined with Cinnamon teaching-it was just really perfect.
I was also shocked to hear of Cinnamon's passing. I also lost another dear friend this past week suddenly and unexpectedly and we are still in shock over that. And my uncle passed away a few weeks ago. So many wonderful people taken from us too soon. The fabric you found is so cute. I hope you have a good weekend Lindsay.
I didn’t know! Such a shock! Cinnamon was/is a lovely soul! She will be sorely missed- she has made such an impact in my art world. Thank you for sharing this news😢. I’m praying for her family and all who loved her. 💔 💕
So sorry about your friends passing,that is very young..I appreciate your honesty about products,I trust your expertise…your rainbow is on one of the fabrics ,so cute.
Sorry to hear about Cinnamon. It is always a shock. I have been following Sketches & Scrubs channel & was shocked to hear how she was treated by the brands but then I thought about the channels I watch & realized that this could be true. Hang in there!
So sorry to hear about Cinnamon and sorry for your loss. What a lovely tribute you gave, and I am glad I got to “meet her” through your interview. Your views on advertisement and reviews are based on ethical values which is why so many trust your reviews. Love to hear more of your views or an interview on this topic. Hope you have a good upcoming week Lindsay, you certainly deserve it!
Yes, please do a podcast with Sketches and Scrubs. I totally agree with you about being paid for a review. Reviews done by brand ambassadors aren't worth my time. My sympathy to the art community on the loss of art Sherpa.
Cinnamon was the first art RUclipsr I followed back in 2016. It was such a big shock when I found out yesterday morning. We need more people like her, not fewer 💔
I’am so sorry to hear of the passing of your friend. I found her a short while ago and thought she had a kind and encouraging soul. She will be missed by this community and I send my heartfelt sympathy to her family and friends.
I’m so sorry to hear of Cinnamon’s passing, she was truly an Earth Angel and I can only imagine that God called her home because while he gifted her to us her light was needed in Heaven….Godspeed Beloved Cinnamon, you helped this artist pull up her bootstraps and keep going after a Cancer diagnosis and I will ALWAYS be grateful & try to honour your legacy. Today, more than ever I think, a company’s Integrity ( or lack thereof ) is having a large spotlight shone on their ethics ( see prev: lack thereof ) and business practices. Thank You for your integrity Lindsay, it’s why I respect and value you! Keep the Faith, Hugs my Friend❤️🩹
My heart is absolutely broken as she helped me so much as an artist and friend. She helped me grow my art business and she helped me find my community! I received the news from Ginger cook through an email early morning. She was a light and still will be. Thanks for acknowledging her as a friend would do! She came and did her work and left us a gift. I will see her again at the easel. Blessings all through this shocking time! ❤❤❤
We get, I am still in total shock myself. I am going back to her old stuff and redoing. Cinnamon is the reason I paint 😢. That’s how I found you, and Ginger, and Steve. Hugs to you all.
OMG May Cinnamon Rest in Peace and paint Happy Lil Trees with Bob Ross. Thank you Lindsay for that lovely tribute to such a great person. I was not having the best day when I turned on RUclips to change my thoughts and there you were. I was already thinking how so much doesn't make sense, and then to find out about Cinnamon. A reminder to appreciate what and who we have. Be well Lindsay.
Hi Lindsay, I don't think anyone can make any sense of death and grief, we just all have to process it in our own way. I hadn't come across Cinnamon, but it's still a loss when any artist is lost especially at such a young age and so suddenly, it pulls us all up short. Be kind to yourself, hug everyone, let's get the love out there, sending hugs to you. Thanks as always for satchat, dont be hard on yourself. ❤💐
Take care too Lindsay. I only know of Cinnamon from your podcast, but she really impressed me with her knowledge and intelligence. It’s a sad loss. And your poor Penny! After this experience she may even be more terrified of bad weather and you will need to watch her carefully. I had a dog that wasn’t bothered by storms until she was outside in one, and from then on had severe anxiety during storms.
A class A SatChat it must’ve been very difficult for you. You handled it like a champ! Hearts, and Hugs to all that are hurting. Breathe out, breathe. ❤🌹
Hi Lindsay, I'm so in the middle of my own grief that I had to skip the first part of the video but I heard the part about trying to make it make sense. I'm so sorry for your loss. 8 months after losing my mother suddenly, it still makes no sense to me, and I don't think it ever will, I just hope it becomes something I can accept, and that becomes less painful. I hope the same for you. X
It’s been a rough year. I lost a dear friend unexpectedly on Nov 22nd. He was 62. He went into the hospital because of 2 compressed discs got an infection and passed within a week. Life is fragile. I think Julia Childs said it best, everything in moderation. You can live the healthiest life and be killed by a drunk driver or even some masonry falling off a building. Just live and enjoy the time you have with those who love and appreciate you.
I was also quite impacted by the news this was definitely a loss that will be felt in our art community around the world. Cinnamon was such a positive beacon to so many. I also feel the same as you when it comes to sponsored videos and them not being reviews, if we are paid it immediately is a bias and I feel choosing not taking money for a review puts the audience first, which IMO is how it should be. I would rather have their support and trust and feel I am making the right ethical choices. Oh and on the lighter side great score at Mardens!!!
So sad to hear this news. I saw your interview of her when you did those on Sundays and I thought she was such an interesting and fun person. We have to appreciate every day! Take care, Lindsay, you’ve had a lot to deal with lately.
I am so sorry about the loss of your friend….for you, for her family, and for the art community. So young. You definitely needed retail therapy, and that fabric is the best. If I could sew well, I’d have snagged it too. Penny is so funny…first she’s afraid of the storm, then escapes into the storm, and then runs away when you try to get her back in. 😂 she’s like a bad child. As for your neighbor, she probably needs retail therapy as well. What a grouch. She’s probably just jealous that Penny is a free spiri!😊 have a good week, Lindsay.
I can't make sense of it either. I'm still in shock. When I got on YT searching for acrylic painting tutorials, she was the one I started watching first. She was so vibrant and upbeat and pixie-like cute. And she was a good teacher. What a large whole this is leaving in the art and YT world. 😥 No, Lindsay, I couldn't have passed up the zippers or the fabric... what a bargain! Oh, I'm so glad your dog is ok. TFS 💕
Cinnamon's death has hit a lot of people hard. I am in a grief group as I am still grieving the loss of family members. The tools I learned there really help.
Interesting Sat Chat 🌷 yes, we miss Cinammon. I giggled when you had her painting happy trees with Bib Ross, cause I was thinking she was doing folk art with Grandma Moses. Then you brought out those zippers and crafty fabric😊. Interesting comments about brands, too. I don't think I ever accepted money - mostly products, and never from those biggy companies. Oh well. I am still cheering for your DH and that situation to turn out. I admire your attitude 🌷
Sorry for your loss. I first heard of Cinammon when you interviewed her in your podcast. I watched some of her videos and she seemed very supportive and positive. I am sure she will be greatly missed and I do hope that they keep her RUclips channel open for her community. On another note, I would love to see you interview Sketches and Scrubs in a podcast.
I am so sorry to hear about your friend and fellow artist. There is no sense to be made but I like the idea she's with Bob Ross painting happy trees. Weird week--you described mine perfectly. We ended up with 4 inches of water in our basement and ripped siding. Never happened before so we are in a new world of sump pump shopping. Our dog was terrified of the wind. But, we are all healthy so I will count that as a win. You don't need to diet, but boy--the first couple of weeks are exhausting. Give yourself some extra time to sleep and relax, and some grace to deal with the loss of your friend. Would love to hear your chat with the other YTer about her experiences. Here's to better days to come...
So very sorry to hear about Cinnamon!! I was never into acrylics, but I watched her from time to time because she was so amazing! Lindsay, I want a lavender paint brush print printed art pouch!! You just tell me how much!! Seriously!
After this week, a little bit of silly retail therapy is forgiven. I may have done so myself. Cinnamon is deeply loved and her immense library of work will continue to inspire the world to be a more colourful place ❤ 😔
I saw the S&S video as well. Having come from a content creator background in a different genre, it was sad to see nothing has changed. PR will always try to get away with getting name recognition for free product… and will have different rules for different creators. Long story short, GET PAID for your work. And keep reviews and PR separate. Do a reaction video!!!
A $75 CAC screening test alerted me that I had an increased risk of having a heart attack. I had no symptoms. Losing someone is so hard. Cinnamon was a very good teacher. I am wishing you the best.
Damn, I missed a lot trying to work on my writing. I think I started following you from a recommended video after one of hers in the early days. Or it could have been following her from one of yours, I know I started following you both around the same time. And to think I was pulling out a sketchbook to work on some doodles. I think I might have to dive back into her videos today for inspiration again. Seems like the best way to remember such a beautiful soul.
I had seen that about wonderful Cinnamon. It is so understandable that our emotions take a hit and we cannot be upbeat no matter what. God bless her and all of us who miss her so dearly. I really must get to Critique corner and do those tomatoes!!!! I just love your painting.
Heartbreaking news about Cinnamon. She had a really rough couple of last years and was healing so much. My heart and love go out to her in her ethereal transition, to you her friend, and to John, Ginger, her kids, extended family and friends. She definitely made an impact in the world that will last forever. I spent so many hours scouring Mardens for everything and anything when I lived in Maine. I get you. 😁 as far as the zippered pouches, can't you shorten some of those long zippers, or make a longer pouch for like long tools?
I have the same issue with switching modes. If I go out of the house I try to get it done all at once and then I come home get every thing put away and whatever vegies I bought prepared and everything else decanted in to the proper containers and storage areas. By that time I feel like I need to take a break and just read a book or something because I feel exhausted :).
I love the idea of her painting with Bob Ross! Thank you. Count me among the people are better because she lived. This has been the toughest year. I lost my mom just a couple of weeks ago and then this. I'm ready for 2024 to be behind us.
Thank you for paying her homage. I expected nothing less from a lady with such grace. I loved your interview with her ❤
I found Cinnamon 10 yrs ago she taught me all about acrylics while you Lindsay taught me Watercolors . I hope that her channel will continue as I still have so many paintings to paint.
She will be greatly missed I hope that we can still refer and watch her videos and that in some way it can help her family. I consider Cinnamon and you the best of the best in providing content for everyone and staying true to your original platform and commitment to helping everyone learn to paint.

I started my art journey due to Cinnamon's videos and enthusiasm for painting. I never thought I could paint. Changed my life.
That’s so inspiring!

Agreed. Thank you for helping me understand that others are feeling the same way I do. She taught me so much (and will continue to).

Big Hugs!! Yes, sensitive time for creatives… and I agree with you about Copic… not refillable, not even what their standards used to be.
I am in tears! I have an acrylic painting on our wall with a heart on it that I learned from one of Cinnamons tutorials it will remain on my wall, Cinnamon was kind, generous and funny, she will definitely be missed in my world Rest in Paradise Cinnamon ❤
Well said! May her videos last on RUclips for all time.

Thanks for all of your honest , ethical reviews! Sorry for the loss of your RUclips art colleague and friend, Cinnamon.
Oh wow! Cinnamon was one of the first people I watched on youtube yrs and yrs ago. She taught me so, so much. Cinnamon made it possible for me to even imagine that art, painting was a possibility in my life. She was kind, encouraging, supportive, warm and loving. What a monumental loss to this world. She will be missed. Rest in the light cinnamon. I love you. ❤
So sad, blessings to her family.❤
So sorry to hear about Cinnamon , it’s such a difficult thing to comprehend , way to young , many prayers of comfort for her family ❤❤❤
I have been in shock after seeing the post on Marty Owings page. I feel so bad for her family. I enjoyed her tutorials. I found her through you. In fact I had added a few more tutorials to try when I am off during Christmas. There’s really nothing to say. Everybody needs a stacking rainbow in their life. Thank you for your reviews and tutorials. I enjoyed the mixed media, it was refreshing. Thank you for sat chat.
It is a very sad loss and I hope her family finds peace.
It never makes sense. We are all here for a finite amount of time. Human beings' biggest lesson is to learn to love people while they are here. I just found out I have cancer. I have always been 100% healthy. I struggle to understand why.
Prayers, peace, and good energy to Cinnamon and her family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I am so sorry! Please take care.
Thank you Lindsey. Cinnamon loved being your friend and always admired you. Sending you and all of the art community Love and Light.
That is so sweet of you to say.
Omg noooooo!!!!!! I didnt know. I learned to paint with her, as sooooo many of us, without knowing it she gave me emotional support when I needed the most. Im crying my heart out. Had to take a pill cause this news gave a panic attack.
Im soo so soooo sorry.... Deeply, deeply sorry.......
Hugs 🫂 It’s been really hard!
@@CianneDoodles is a nightmare.
I'm so sorry 😞
It hit me like a rock yesterday when I heard. So unexpected. I hope you are feeling ok (ish) now.
@@heathernolan902 The clonazepan is working, so Im calmer, but is so surprising to feel so much for someone I didnt even talk to.
I guess is the same for many of us.
She was a part of my life, the beginning of my journey and I feel a part of me died with her. I cant imagine what her family is going through. This is heartbreaking. 😞
Oh, so sad I will miss Cinnamon the art Sherpa. She was awesome.
Omg. I loved her! This is such a huge loss. People like her made the world better. 😢
(BTW, Lindsay, I feel the same way about you. ❤)

I’m glad I have that picture and I’ve looked at it often just because it’s such a perfect picture of a person that makes me so happy.
I hope Cinnamon’s lovely family and all of the lovely art students and friends can feel some relief from the enormous amount of love everyone is expressing. Cinnamon seemed like a person who no one in this world could help but love.
I wanted to add that I loved Cinnamon’s watercolor offerings as well, they had a really fun energy that was also very calming as watercolor’s energy combined with Cinnamon teaching-it was just really perfect.
I am so glad she made such a difference in your life.
I hadn't heard this. I am so sorry. Thank you for this posting.
so sorry for the loss of your friend Cinnamon. prayers up for healing & comfort to her family & friends
I was also shocked to hear of Cinnamon's passing. I also lost another dear friend this past week suddenly and unexpectedly and we are still in shock over that. And my uncle passed away a few weeks ago. So many wonderful people taken from us too soon. The fabric you found is so cute. I hope you have a good weekend Lindsay.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I didn’t know! Such a shock!
Cinnamon was/is a lovely soul! She will be sorely missed- she has made such an impact in my art world. Thank you for sharing this news😢. I’m praying for her family and all who loved her. 💔 💕
I started watching the Art Sherpa around 2014 and could finish a painting with her teaching.
Oh my gosh! I'm so sad.. she was such a bright light. I'm so sad for her family. 😢
So sorry about your friends passing,that is very young..I appreciate your honesty about products,I trust your expertise…your rainbow is on one of the fabrics ,so cute.
Thank you so much!
This messages makes my heart hurt😢 💔. Such a beautiful light. Her legacy will carry on. Prayers for the family.
So so sorry, Lindsay. She left a positive mark on the world
Sorry to hear about Cinnamon. It is always a shock. I have been following Sketches & Scrubs channel & was shocked to hear how she was treated by the brands but then I thought about the channels I watch & realized that this could be true. Hang in there!
Awwwww that sucks! Like many commenters she was one of the first I watched to learn how to paint!! Rip Cinnamon ❤. God be with her and her family.
So sorry to hear about Cinnamon and sorry for your loss. What a lovely tribute you gave, and I am glad I got to “meet her” through your interview. Your views on advertisement and reviews are based on ethical values which is why so many trust your reviews. Love to hear more of your views or an interview on this topic. Hope you have a good upcoming week Lindsay, you certainly deserve it!
Yes, please do a podcast with Sketches and Scrubs. I totally agree with you about being paid for a review. Reviews done by brand ambassadors aren't worth my time. My sympathy to the art community on the loss of art Sherpa.
Cinnamon was the first art RUclipsr I followed back in 2016. It was such a big shock when I found out yesterday morning. We need more people like her, not fewer 💔
I’am so sorry to hear of the passing of your friend. I found her a short while ago and thought she had a kind and encouraging soul. She will be missed by this community and I send my heartfelt sympathy to her family and friends.
Oh no!! I loved the way her husband and her worked so well together ❤❤❤
It was a joy to watch them work together!
I’m so sorry to hear of Cinnamon’s passing, she was truly an Earth Angel and I can only imagine that God called her home because while he gifted her to us her light was needed in Heaven….Godspeed Beloved Cinnamon, you helped this artist pull up her bootstraps and keep going after a Cancer diagnosis and I will ALWAYS be grateful & try to honour your legacy. Today, more than ever I think, a company’s Integrity ( or lack thereof ) is having a large spotlight shone on their ethics ( see prev: lack thereof ) and business practices. Thank You for your integrity Lindsay, it’s why I respect and value you! Keep the Faith, Hugs my Friend❤️🩹
My heart is absolutely broken as she helped me so much as an artist and friend. She helped me grow my art business and she helped me find my community! I received the news from Ginger cook through an email early morning. She was a light and still will be. Thanks for acknowledging her as a friend would do! She came and did her work and left us a gift. I will see her again at the easel. Blessings all through this shocking time! ❤❤❤
We get, I am still in total shock myself. I am going back to her old stuff and redoing. Cinnamon is the reason I paint 😢. That’s how I found you, and Ginger, and Steve. Hugs to you all.
OMG May Cinnamon Rest in Peace and paint Happy Lil Trees with Bob Ross. Thank you Lindsay for that lovely tribute to such a great person. I was not having the best day when I turned on RUclips to change my thoughts and there you were. I was already thinking how so much doesn't make sense, and then to find out about Cinnamon. A reminder to appreciate what and who we have. Be well Lindsay.
It was such a shock. Thank you for your kind words.
Hi Lindsay, I don't think anyone can make any sense of death and grief, we just all have to process it in our own way. I hadn't come across Cinnamon, but it's still a loss when any artist is lost especially at such a young age and so suddenly, it pulls us all up short. Be kind to yourself, hug everyone, let's get the love out there, sending hugs to you. Thanks as always for satchat, dont be hard on yourself. ❤💐
Take care too Lindsay. I only know of Cinnamon from your podcast, but she really impressed me with her knowledge and intelligence. It’s a sad loss. And your poor Penny! After this experience she may even be more terrified of bad weather and you will need to watch her carefully. I had a dog that wasn’t bothered by storms until she was outside in one, and from then on had severe anxiety during storms.
Wow. So sudden an unexpected. Cinnamon was also one of the first RUclipsrs I followed . She was very inspirational.
It makes no sense. I’m still in shock.
She was such a beautiful soul in every possible way.
Yes to both! Podcast with scketches and scrubs, and a reaction to her video ❤
Oh my goodness I had no idea. I will pray for her family that they will heal and continue on the way that she wants them to.
A class A SatChat it must’ve been very difficult for you. You handled it like a champ! Hearts, and Hugs to all that are hurting. Breathe out, breathe. ❤🌹
Thank you! It was a heavy one.
I couldn't believe the news, either. It was a gut punch to lose such a wonderful teacher and person. 😢
Oh dear! I'm sorry to hear that. She will be missed by her friends and family as well as the RUclips art community.
Hi Lindsay, I'm so in the middle of my own grief that I had to skip the first part of the video but I heard the part about trying to make it make sense. I'm so sorry for your loss. 8 months after losing my mother suddenly, it still makes no sense to me, and I don't think it ever will, I just hope it becomes something I can accept, and that becomes less painful.
I hope the same for you. X
I'm so sorry for your loss:(
It’s been a rough year. I lost a dear friend unexpectedly on Nov 22nd. He was 62. He went into the hospital because of 2 compressed discs got an infection and passed within a week. Life is fragile. I think Julia Childs said it best, everything in moderation. You can live the healthiest life and be killed by a drunk driver or even some masonry falling off a building. Just live and enjoy the time you have with those who love and appreciate you.
So very sad. Prayers for her and her family. 🙏❤️🙏
I was also quite impacted by the news this was definitely a loss that will be felt in our art community around the world. Cinnamon was such a positive beacon to so many. I also feel the same as you when it comes to sponsored videos and them not being reviews, if we are paid it immediately is a bias and I feel choosing not taking money for a review puts the audience first, which IMO is how it should be. I would rather have their support and trust and feel I am making the right ethical choices. Oh and on the lighter side great score at Mardens!!!
I never had the pleasure of knowing Cinnamon. I am sorry to all mourning her loss. She sounded like an amazing lady. -Kryste
So sad to hear this news. I saw your interview of her when you did those on Sundays and I thought she was such an interesting and fun person. We have to appreciate every day! Take care, Lindsay, you’ve had a lot to deal with lately.
It was such a shock. Thanks for the kind words.
I am so sorry about the loss of your friend….for you, for her family, and for the art community. So young. You definitely needed retail therapy, and that fabric is the best. If I could sew well, I’d have snagged it too. Penny is so funny…first she’s afraid of the storm, then escapes into the storm, and then runs away when you try to get her back in. 😂 she’s like a bad child. As for your neighbor, she probably needs retail therapy as well. What a grouch. She’s probably just jealous that Penny is a free spiri!😊 have a good week, Lindsay.
Prayers for Cinnamon’s family and community. ❤
I can't make sense of it either. I'm still in shock. When I got on YT searching for acrylic painting tutorials, she was the one I started watching first. She was so vibrant and upbeat and pixie-like cute. And she was a good teacher. What a large whole this is leaving in the art and YT world. 😥
No, Lindsay, I couldn't have passed up the zippers or the fabric... what a bargain!
Oh, I'm so glad your dog is ok.
TFS 💕
Thank you so much for your kind words. 💕
Cinnamon's death has hit a lot of people hard. I am in a grief group as I am still grieving the loss of family members. The tools I learned there really help.
Great chat, you rule❤
Interesting Sat Chat 🌷 yes, we miss Cinammon. I giggled when you had her painting happy trees with Bib Ross, cause I was thinking she was doing folk art with Grandma Moses. Then you brought out those zippers and crafty fabric😊. Interesting comments about brands, too. I don't think I ever accepted money - mostly products, and never from those biggy companies. Oh well. I am still cheering for your DH and that situation to turn out. I admire your attitude 🌷
I keep tearing up every time I think about Cinnamon 😢
Sorry for your loss. I first heard of Cinammon when you interviewed her in your podcast. I watched some of her videos and she seemed very supportive and positive. I am sure she will be greatly missed and I do hope that they keep her RUclips channel open for her community. On another note, I would love to see you interview Sketches and Scrubs in a podcast.
I am so sorry to hear about your friend and fellow artist. There is no sense to be made but I like the idea she's with Bob Ross painting happy trees. Weird week--you described mine perfectly. We ended up with 4 inches of water in our basement and ripped siding. Never happened before so we are in a new world of sump pump shopping. Our dog was terrified of the wind. But, we are all healthy so I will count that as a win. You don't need to diet, but boy--the first couple of weeks are exhausting. Give yourself some extra time to sleep and relax, and some grace to deal with the loss of your friend. Would love to hear your chat with the other YTer about her experiences. Here's to better days to come...
So very sorry to hear about Cinnamon!! I was never into acrylics, but I watched her from time to time because she was so amazing!
Lindsay, I want a lavender paint brush print printed art pouch!! You just tell me how much!! Seriously!
I'll keep that in mind!
I’m so sorry Cinnamon passed! She made a positive difference in this world . Hugs ti you and her family.
After this week, a little bit of silly retail therapy is forgiven. I may have done so myself. Cinnamon is deeply loved and her immense library of work will continue to inspire the world to be a more colourful place ❤
😔
I saw the S&S video as well. Having come from a content creator background in a different genre, it was sad to see nothing has changed. PR will always try to get away with getting name recognition for free product… and will have different rules for different creators. Long story short, GET PAID for your work. And keep reviews and PR separate.
Do a reaction video!!!
Very sad to lose Art Sherpa.
Such sad news about Cinnamon Cooney. She was so young. I grieve for her family.
Remember that only the good die young and it really is the truth. So sorry for your sadness.
A $75 CAC screening test alerted me that I had an increased risk of having a heart attack. I had no symptoms. Losing someone is so hard. Cinnamon was a very good teacher. I am wishing you the best.
I hope you are doing okay.
Oh my gosh, I did not know about Cinnamon. I loved her enthusiasm and tutorials.
Damn, I missed a lot trying to work on my writing. I think I started following you from a recommended video after one of hers in the early days. Or it could have been following her from one of yours, I know I started following you both around the same time.
And to think I was pulling out a sketchbook to work on some doodles. I think I might have to dive back into her videos today for inspiration again. Seems like the best way to remember such a beautiful soul.
I had seen that about wonderful Cinnamon. It is so understandable that our emotions take a hit and we cannot be upbeat no matter what. God bless her and all of us who miss her so dearly. I really must get to Critique corner and do those tomatoes!!!! I just love your painting.
Sketches and Scrubs podcast yes.
Also, yes please to having Sketches on for the podcast and the reaction video. I'm sure we all want to know what YT Mama Lindsay has to say :D
I saw the sketches and scrubs video and I agree with her.
I only learned about Cinnamon today. It's left a Cinnamon shaped hole in the world. It's so sad.😢
That fabric would look adorable on a canvas to hang up too. Distress the edges and center on a 12x12 canvas... so cute!!
Or on embroidery hoops!
Oh my goodness I remember that epis you did with her. She was so amazing. Praying for you in your grief journey Lindsey 😊
Heartbreaking news about Cinnamon. She had a really rough couple of last years and was healing so much. My heart and love go out to her in her ethereal transition, to you her friend, and to John, Ginger, her kids, extended family and friends. She definitely made an impact in the world that will last forever.
I spent so many hours scouring Mardens for everything and anything when I lived in Maine. I get you. 😁 as far as the zippered pouches, can't you shorten some of those long zippers, or make a longer pouch for like long tools?
I suppose I could, we'll see what I actually do 😆 🤣 😂
@@thefrugalcrafter 😁
I have the same issue with switching modes. If I go out of the house I try to get it done all at once and then I come home get every thing put away and whatever vegies I bought prepared and everything else decanted in to the proper containers and storage areas. By that time I feel like I need to take a break and just read a book or something because I feel exhausted :).
