Carly, you are as fine a film maker as you are a visual artist laying down layers of subtle tones of gray and black. Really enjoy your editing and sequencing. Marvelous work.

The attention to detail and clarity is stunning. You have a natural gift . Thanks for sharing these videos they are inspiring.

From one insomniac night owl to another - the struggle is real. I used to stay up all night programming. I did so much more work in the hours between midnight and 5am than any other time but it makes me wrecked the next day. There's something special about the energy at night. When everyone is dreaming and the world around quiets down. I sometimes think I'm too sensitive and absorb the energies around me and that's why the nights are so appealing, because they feel more like my time. And this is strange to me because I live alone but it is what it is. What's really bad is I also LOVE the sunrise and early morning hours after a deep restful nights sleep.

Stunning work again Carly! Take a walk before you go to bed and count some sheep :) You inspired me to try charcoal, never used it before, graphite, watercolor or acrylic only. So I bought a nice charcoal box and practicing right now, my first charcoal portrait. Thanks for the inspiration and the challenge!

Her spirit will always be with me!

New profile picture is lovely !!!! 😍 One more beautiful beautiful video !!!!! 💙💙😍✨

Even your breakfast composition is beautiful!

It’s really looking good, the color added to the paper below the woman made it work for me. Added that sense of softness and depth. How am I doing you asked for responses. Hot! It’s the middle of summer here in North Carolina and the humidity is awful 😞. But really no complaints, life is so good and I’m grateful. I hope your enjoying your winter 🥶.

👍Delicious looking meal and beautiful artwork , greetings from Moore, Texas. I too have trouble sleeping, up at 7am sleep at 2am I've decided to just go with it as long as my health is good.

I love this piece that you're working on, I can't wait to see the new piece your currently working on, your work is so inspiring🥰

Carly, Thank you so much for sharing your art and work, which is truly inspirational, and for carrying on through a house move. Your videos and your art take away from the madness this world has become. I often watch them a few times to escape.

I think tbh the fact that you have an awesome studio in an inspirational environment is a plus, I look out my bedroom window in scotland as 50 mph winds rattle its hard to get some work started let alone finished 3 seasons have passed by in 3 minutes ⛈️🌞🌪️🌈

Today , I really lost a great friend and I went to see her face one last time, it was very very cold and I didn't want to keep anything other than the memory of her serene and inanimate face, so I didn't go to the religious ceremony and the burial!

Fascinated with ur work.

Carly you are so talented, I'm enjoying with you amazing work thank you so much ❤

Wish you a Beautiful Day ☺️🌹🌸

Incredibly beautiful, amazing

Thank You for showing your progress! Can’t seem to find an artist that shows this much as they work (Myself Included). You Inspire me to show my own stuff. Much appreciated! Looking forward to seeing the finished piece 🙌🏽

Beautiful progress on your artwork, I’m sure it will be received with amazement. Creative people have a hard time with sleep I have discovered through the years, hard to shut that on and off at will. Excited to see the new artwork!!

If it was their favourite photo before, I would love to be a fly on the wall when they both see this for the first time! perfect is an understatement 😊

So beautiful work! Tbh, You inspire me ❤️❤️

You've done the Amazing work... Carly..☺️

I feel like I use so much of the creative side of my brain it drain me so I have no problem with sleep. Also workout. I'm starting a new drawing! Super excited about. Love your videos, you inspire me so much.

Wow .so beautiful..❤️..very hd anatomy..😱🌹🌹🌹 😍💪 Excellent skills👍👏

I think amazing and beautiful in no words that not only new profile image but also this art vlog video. That are all attractive!! ✨💕😍

Beautiful work 🥰👍👏💪

I can totally understand the not sleeping thing! my body is very ill, and morning is rough..hard to move, more painful, etc... so it takes me most of the day just trying to break open my joints...let alone energy. but early evening its like I wake up and suddenly want to do things (in my small way) but its when we're having dinner and winding done, but through the night is when I feel I want to do things. plus....laying there only makes it worse. ill be wide awake, then the sun comes up and my body finally says "ok, sleep" ... but, now its time to go all over again. but, that's just me probably, as this body of mine has a mind of its own. lavender.... a warm bath with Epsom salts and add several drops of lavender, frankincense, orange essential oils and mix it up, then drop some in your bath as it fills and more later. that helps some. its also really hard when you're.. when I, am either in the middle of a project or if an idea has come up that I really need to do or try...I don't sleep much until I finally get it out of my head. your place is beautiful! I'd love if my art area (dining room of our little home, but my hubby is nice enough to not care that I'm slowly taking over everything😊) was as calming and clean as yours :) I'm glad you're more settled in. your glowing smile shows that you're happy! in another video you make a chocolate cake that I'd love the recipe for😁 but your art, on the paper and with the camera, is stunning, as always!!! hope you have another wonderful week!

HI CARLY, AS EVER YOU "KEEP BLOWING MY MIND" YOUR VIBES IS ON 🔥 🔥🔥 & YOUR DRAWINGS ARE LIKE "WOOOW", I LOOK FORWARD TO MORE BRILLIANT ART FROM YOU, & EASE OF THE COFFEE 😇😇😇

Watching television or listening to music at night puts me right to sleep, thinking about work related projects keeps me up, mostly because I like my work. Everyone is different and I hope you find something which works for you.

Que hermoso trabajo!

Wow you are amazing I also draw and have a channel but not like you You are the best and I have never seen anyone like you

Sublime piece. Truly beautiful. Can't wait to hear about their reaction to it 🥰 Unfortunately I don't have any sleep tips. I work all week and get up early to do a yoga and dance practice plus fit in some artwork so by the time my head hits the pillow I am out. Relaxing meditation and breathing may help plus try Pukka Relax tea. Delicious! Xo

I like your art 😍

Have a great and good day, Still!

Carly; Happy belated BD!! I know the late night thing.... what works for me is reading.... It puts me out after i have been reading for a while... best wishes......

If every person in this world planted a shrub, +, an aromatic plant and a flower, in a healthy way by taking care of these plants often, it would be magical for the planet!

Omg you taught me how to make coffee in a french press lol 🤭🤦‍♀️

👌👌👌👌

Hello Carly, I Think to you!

😍😍💙💙💙💙💙

I drink tea (Celestial Seasonings "Sleepytime" here in the States) and read a book for about an hour. My doctor recommended the tea when I was having issues getting to sleep. I think it's the Valerian root that's key ingredient. As always - consult **your** doctor first.

Love you 😘♥️

👏👏👏👌👌👌💯💯💯

w-o-w!

Hi Carly, this is Red from Brisbane, I like your channel. 🌷 I haven't tried charcoal drawing just oils and acrylics. Were you affected by the floods from earlier this year? Take care 😉👍

Have you tried Melatonin. I have had issues for years working shift work. This has made a considerable difference to me.

Where do you find your reference pictures??.. do you take them yourself??

really skilled artwork. What's the name of the 1'st song?:D

Me gusta como pinta con la brocha bien gorda hace unas sombras incleible tocará conseguirme una brocha bien grande para dibujar.

I'm a 10PM sleep til 7am person. Hot chocolate drink or herbal tea with fennel peppermint lemon balm chamomile and lavender sends me off. Health shops or supermarket should have something for you. Chamomile is the strong ingredient on me.

What brushes do you use for blending?

Could you name the songs on this video?

No help for you on the falling asleep, I’m a night owl as well, but my body or mind can even overcome sleep meds. Or it could be a month of triple digit heat and the utility bill that comes with it. I see you wearing a jacket, so I take it it’s cooler there? I’m not by any means an expert and it could just be the way the camera is filming, but check the perspective of the hand that is foreshortened.

Oh, and if you can't sleep and are a night owl, like me, either get sleep medication from your doctor or stop waking up in the morning. Years of being naturally a night person, but trying to be a morning one, has been years of misery because of sleep deprivation.

Stupenda creatura mondo cosa mangi ma un buon bicchiere di rose il caffè alla fine si è quello che si mangia quella rosa che a sul sentinella stupenda donna potrebbe fiorire assieme alla torta un bicchiere di bollicine e per farti felice e acarezarti il cuore unmadarineto e un limoncello un bacio on il vento da mandello

Seriously what books or classes should i be taking im good with animals but when it comes to the human body my brain draws a blank lmfao

You have stopped and made lunch I spent 10 years as a chef that scramble was a piece of art in itself, its bugging me how I never see anyone else in your videos are you doing everything on your own or is there someone hiding in the shadows

I remember I had my pencil drawing as best in art winner in school , I wasn't using drawing pencil at that time , drawing with pencil is really easy , me? I'm the only non LGBT God since the world was created 🤪
