I'm sorry about my dirty mirrors, it's my fatal flaw - please forgive me

This is way more than a simple youyube video. The shots, the transitions, the editing, the colors are... amazing. You're so creative and inspiring.

Okay but the production quality of this video is actually so impressive. I felt like i was in a wes anderson movie! also the mirror perfectly placed so we can see you while also looking at the top down of your desk! Oh my gosh it is so sick! you have done incredible work on your videos and i just wanna tell you my little eyes appreciate the aesthetics and care

The mirror trick is genius 🎉

Sha'an! This video is so different, in the best way. I loved how you used a spotlight to highlight each item of your MUJI haul. Also, I find it really cool how you used a mirror in this video. the editing is great! xx

As a muji pens lover this video hits! I also have big bias to muji pens generally so it extra hits lol💛💛

as someone who has been looking into maybe buying cheap(er) art supplies to start out with, i'm glad you posted this~

The composition for the supplies and your experimenting with the supplies gives me so much joy! 😍 Beautiful!

The highlight of every Muji product is so Wes Anderson, love it 🦊

Omg the spotlight effect on the materials, brilliant 🎉

I would love to see you do a video of your favorite art supplies and art books!!!

Adore that last quick lil experiment! Love seeing your loose work 🥰

The mirror idea is so good, shoutout Rocket! Also liked the flat lay with all the materials you ordered and how the light animates it all. Might steal the idea for my own videos in future😏🤣 Can't wait to see what you create for Peachtober too!🤸🏽‍♀🤍

Obsessed with the editing in this !!! 💛 that little stop motion section with the materials and the lightswitch highlight was almost Wes Anderson-esque

This is absolutely brilliant to see you being experimental. I have a new sketchbook and I’m in a bit of a rut creatively but this has inspired me to pick up my pens again. Thank you! (Also your mirror trick is clever)

The editing/sound on this video is 👌👩‍🍳 and I’m journaling while watching, getting inspired to do some paper collage, and admiring your free style approach! I always feel so inspired to make art when watching your videos- it feels like we’re (the other artists watching, too!) having an art day together. How fun would that be? There are no art groups where I live out in the middle of nowhere, so this is so enriching for me 💛

I never realised if you do this in your other video's as well, but I really like the no music. My brain is very happy

I looove those pens! Muji have some good stuff ngl. Also, let me just commend how creative that mirror shot is with the flatlay shot. I seriously thought it was a separate vid at first 😅

I always like watching someone exploring new art supplies. Something relaxing about it. Also, Love how you used the mirror.

I love this video's editing with stop motion and lighting effects. the use of mirror to see your face is also brilliant!

The cinematography 🤩🤩

Please do a book recomendations video!! It is very interesting what books have you read and what do you like!!!

Always love how playful and casual your videos are (with those thoughtful frame compositions too of course.)❤

I just started reading seriously again over a year ago and I'm also in the middle of trying to figure out my taste 🥲 I finished tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow a few weeks ago and it's definitely one of my favorite reads so far! I'd love to see a book related video from you! xx

I love your relationship to creating and how you express it. It feels very confident, self assured, experimental, healthy, professional, and in tune with your "why". Was starting sketchbook #44 while watching :)

I love your color palettes in your art so well thought up

I love the Wes Anderson style of the video edit ❤

The editing in this one was 🤌🏼

Always love seeing you just have fun in your sketchbooks

Omggg, I've just discovered you and your amazing art ( I know I'm late lol ) ! You are just so fabulous and inspiring. I would really love 2 jump into Peachtober, its just what I need to get me goin.

love the editing in this video !!

We, my daughter, Haya and I had so much fun watching your videos. She drew the entire time and she wants to see more of your videos for inspiration.

These are so nice to watch.

Truly love how the vlog has been edited.. the "click on click off" and love the Mirror image.....sooooo Cool vlog and the thoughtful thought process...

The editingggggg!!!

Excited for peachtober! I’ve done a few Squarespace code injections for my artist friends, happy to help ❤

I was crocheting along to this video! :)

A cutie running through the train!! We love a good muji haul

Loving the Wes Anderson light style omg

Thanks for the mention! :)

Muji stationery is so good

I know the intro or swatch part of the video is an international choice, and I like that people try something new. I have to say though, that for me or really disturbed the flow because my s eyes always have to spontaneously focus on something new instead of being able to relax, like when you're just narrating. I did the second style much more relaxing (which I guess is what most of us are here for) 😊

painting peachtober and listening. Would be cool to see your art books. I don't even mind a lengthy video where you go into depth about them. Thanks for the painting company :)

I love the editing! 👍

Book recommendations would be amazing! Also I feel you on the panic of not having enough photographs/no proper photo album and worrying about forgetting those moments or being unable to relive them. I don't nearly have enough photos of my friends and I together. Might put together a scrapbook for us :')

Wow. This is really amazing 😊😊😊

Also i love the dirty mirror i think it adds to the vibe 🎉❤

Im crocheting while watching!!

i adore the wes anderson vibes when switching between the materials!

I loved this video and love to see another one of books recommendations! Also , i couldnt find you in Goodreads :(

I read a lot of science fiction/fantasy; if you are interested in that genre, here are a few recommendations off the top of my head: The author Robin Hobb is amazing, read either her Assasin's Apprentice series(I cried so much...I don't usually cry reading books), or her Forest Mage series. She is such an excellent writer overall, but I think where she excels is her amazing world building and her ability to make you feel a strong emotional attachment to the characters. I was so invested in both of these series. I think she is my favourite author; she's definitely up there. There is a book called "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson that is one of my favourite one off books(I read a lot of series); it took me a few tries to really get into it because there is a lot of world building and lingo that can be a bit off putting, but once I got rolling, I was hooked. He has other really good books also. His books are meaty/girthy/big bois(so, it's probably the equivalent of reading a series). The author Christopher Moore is hilarious, imo; he has soooo many funny books. A lot of them are on the lighter side and also aren't part of a series, so that makes them really accessible; however; I recommend one of his more "substantial" books, "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal." I haven't read this book in a while so I can't be more specific, but I remember laughing out loud...a lot. I also really enjoyed "The Cruel Prince" series by Holly Black...probably a little too much. It is 3 books long and it had, in my opinion, a very satisfying ending that hit home for me in stark contrast to the way many other books seem to fall flat(even books I enjoy!) While these books aren't necessarily "light" reading, I consider them fluffy, romantic, "feel good" reading; there is a lot of great world building, but I'm really reading them for the main relationship. >_> Another series like this is "A Court of Thorns and Roses" by Sarah J. Maas; once you get past the first book, it gets so good! If you decided to read these and could only read one, I would recommend "The Cruel Prince" series over ACOTAR.

I would love to hear some book recommendations

I'm watching while still in bed haha. Boyfriend and cats are still sleeping next to me. It was 7.30 when I started watching, this is like sleeping in for me because I usually get up at 5 ^^ ❤

The ABC has a youtube video called something like "Collage with Alice Lindstrom" that has a more controlled version of collage that you might enjoy more?? Or at least be a different place for you to start

Please drop your books omg! 🖤

Congrats rocket on gq!

I'm moving house and packing all my stuff and now I want to take a trip to Muji 😅

The best new book I have read this year - The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty, about a female pirate captain which is fantasy. Other non new books have liked: ‘Get a life Chloe Brown’ - romance with a bit of humour; the time travel funny books by Jodi Taylor - The Chronicles of St Mary’s; ‘Saga’ the Graphic novel comic series which is amazing space opera and a good Agatha Christie like A Murder is Announced, And Then There Were None or Five Little Pigs.

Congrats on the GQ, rocket!!

So who/what is little bean? " Oh hey there little bean, watcha doing all the way down here?" ;)

my morning pages are mostly just me planning my day, am I doing it wrong???? ahaha 😂

oooh it would be so fun if you tore up different colored paper in little pieces, pasted it down, then cut out your stars on black sheet of paper with an xacto knife and then pasted that sheet on topppp

I also tried reading American Psycho...and I also do not recommend! it was so bad and I remember it made me cringe a lot which really took me out of it! I could not get into it at all. I enjoyed the movie for what it was, but I could not get a foothold in the book. It is usually the opposite way around for me!

Did anyone know that she could carry a tune?!
