    This was enjoyable! I have to apologise I tend to watch art videos while I’m cooking dinner and end up not commenting. But I always enjoy hearing your insights. Usually I’m standing there nodding like YUP

    I just wrote a comment on another video saying i don't go out anymore because i get sick from the sun but when you said that being outside affects your health, now I'm thinking it's because I don't go out enough!
    I love all of these vlogs, the scenery where you live is gorgeous!!thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to make them. 💕💕
    I could never go out to draw because I'm scared people would approach me lol. And my hand always starts shaking when someone watches me draw/paint

    Nice tips. Thank you. That pencil looks so fun! I've never seen one before. I'm not an artist, I'm a watercolor dabbler, 😊 but last year I braved plein air. My favorite place is an area where people go to bird watch. You can drive around, so I often just sit in my truck and paint. That way no one can watch me. 😄

    We have a state park near us surrounded by our enormous lake. Love to paint there! I’ve been enjoying painting tiny things lately. If you just stop and look at and around your feet for a few minutes you can see some amazing sketchbook fodder to capture 😊

    For the most part, I love creating at my desk. It is quiet there. I get easily distracted and rarely finish my work when I'm outside. I do admire those that art in the wild.

    As soon as I saw that Artraveller I had to stop the video and look it up! I love art supplies and figuring out good ways to take my materials outside and/or traveling. I hope you will do a video soon on your setup with watercolors. Can you carry everything in that? I have lately made a folding lap board from a 9x12” piece of foam board and white duct tape and use it with magnet clips for my metal watercolor palette and clip-on water cups. As to whether I am nervous about working in public, it has never really bothered me, which surprised me because I have a fear of public speaking and that sort of thing. I do work in small sketchbooks which perhaps make me less obvious. I’ve had some wonderful conversations with interested people.

    Took a break from art for about 2 months. Could not stand the sight of art supplies, much less hold a pen without shivering. But now the joy is slowly coming back and your video is the first art related thing i watched in this period. It was fun and inspirational. I like making art outside though I really don't like people watching me haha. Also, i love those rainbow pens. Have one also 🥰

    I haven’t tempted being outside yet, in part because I’m in a wheelchair and don’t have much movement in my arms. The sort of water colour painting outside it’s a bit scary but I have packed ready for anything. That brings its own problems like by the bag is so heavy. It’s just a bit of a worry as to where I could put things on, particularly water. I will be very interested to catch On some of the things you talked about in this video, for instance, you mention the use of magnets. Are the ones we have quite powerful and that they hold water if I attached the travel bottle to them do you think?

    By the way, I wouldn’t consider myself being an artist, since I am extremely insecure about if I am “good enough to paint/draw in public”. I would -unfortunately- consider myself an art supply collector, though. Same kind of subject that @creating cute art recently talked about in her video. Thinking: “with this palette (paper/pen/pencil/brush...you name it) I will paint outside”...I buy it-and guess what...
    So, I really love the idea of Miranda Watson to “use up a palette (or other art supply)”. And maybe I would even use up one thing “outside”. 😄

      I’m in Germany. The best art-related thing about that is, I think, that we get Schmincke colors “KIND OF cheap” 🤣
      I make homemade watercolors as well. I have one color that I named “Laguna”-based on the water of Venice. If I can find a picture of it or a painting with it, I’ll put it up on my Instagram and let you know.
