The entire video is a delight ----- so well done When you are painting the hands the backgrounds of green and blues... I actually loved the 3/4s way through background not too blended in.. at 3.56-7 but you are the artist... we are always learning .. I have earmarked a shop and I am thinking about painting again I used to paint when I was 12- 21 in oils .. The Face painting .. your perspective and sketching out is so good not only that but it has great appeal with butterflies in the hair... as I write I am at 8.16 lets see what happens... painting take on their own life they evolve as you paint...the hand is good sometimes hard to get right.. well done .. I also liked it half done with yellow background.. also if we continue and paint enough and perhaps you stumble on a style that you might like... and others might really like.. Do another video If you haven't already

i've definitely let myself down and given up on art a few times (like multiple years long gaps) because i thought finding your style and having a certain 'look' to get an audience was most important. now, i'm 31 and i still have no style but at least i'm at the point where i'm just interested in trying stuff and growing through experiments and practice. great first video, i'm excited to watch your journey !

I’m not sure how you have fit so many truths into so few videos. “Artists wonder how their voices will be heard in the abyss of voices.” “It’s not a masterpiece but it’s important to learn from our mistakes.” I love your honesty and can’t wait to see what else you have to say. Thanks for sharing your voice with us.

Hi I just found you and subscribed love your channel and to me I loved the yellow phase of the girl. She was sketched on yellow and half painted perfection❤ Art is a poem sometimes. P.s I was trying to figure out how to take full advantage of this awesome, tourist busy, tiny desert 🏜 town joshua tree Ca. That I just moved to and want you know this video inspired me to go for it and open a studio/gallery. Thank you so much for the work you are putting into your channel. ❤❤❤🎨

Yes, exactly, If the waiting lists in Art Galleries are too long and we needed to wait for 1-2 years for an art exhibit that would only last for a month or two, why not do something about it, be inovative and more creative and start your own Art Studio and help promote art...after all even if it takes long artworks now-a-days become antiques after 20 years and antiques? The older they get, the more expensive they become...art is still the best business in the world where else can you find a business that can turn a blank sheet into worth thousands or even millions of dollars. . .yes the water is great lets dive into it . . . 😊
