Video

Love your videos ❤ your abstract art inspire me and I can’t wait to paint again 😍 thank you 🙏

Yeah, I totally get that asking yourself is this any good? But then you look around and see the other wonderful art you have done, and realize it is probably great!

I have chronic fatigue so my art is from my bed, in my living room. I have painted some murals in my house too. ❤

Hi! I’m so glad I found your video today. I’m just starting the process of making a space in my home for an art studio. I love both the ideas you suggested and listening to your soothing voice. Keep up the good work 😊

The studio is sooo vast and the ambiance feels great too❤❤❤❤

Thank you Jess. It is so helpful to see how other people organize their art supplies. And I am so impressed with how handy you are with that drill. Kai

Wow, I just happened to come across your station. I so enjoyed watching you go through your day. It was so relaxing. I will be sure to watch more.

Love this video, Jess! Your studio is such an inspiration in the way you have it beautifully organized. Thank you for sharing!🌺

🥰💓🥰💓🥰

Such a nice calming video, as always. Your studio is lovely. That paint tube hanger is so great. I wish I had more tubes so I could have one too.

It was a pleasure watching how you overcame your obsticales in persuing your intrest in your art and studio. Great ideas! I am interested in sewing but have been procastinating. I love making rag dolls because i find them very cute. I'm also planning to make a love quilt using my late mum's scarfs, shawls and garments too as a remembarance of her. It's been less than 3 months since she passed. I guess i'll givee myself some more time? However, Watching you has given me more inspiration to move forward. ❤

How wonderful to find your channel!

Love the painting😊

Lovely to find you on my feed today! Your landscape is dreamy…and I love your space.

Where’s part 2….lol

Amazing!

Totally awesome! Congratulations on great collaborations - almost surreal. But... very inspirational too!!!

I follow a number of artists on CZcams - discovered you a week or so ago. What tickled me was that you turned 40! Oh, my dear Jess, I'm turning 80 next week! Thank all the gods I'm in good health and intend staying that way... I've used art materials since aged 7-ish and have always had a bit of a struggle with "style"... yeah, that. I've done The Artist's Way twice before and have just started for the third time as I felt totally blocked - many reasons. BUT... the good news is that things started happening on Day 4! So, I've let my inner artistic child loose in the field of all possibilities. And she's playing like she's 7 again! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

How fortunate you are to have such a dad! I was fortunate to grow up on a farm in South Africa and had just the most amazing childhood with loving parents and grandparents.

So happy to see a new video from you appear in my feed - your videos are so creatively inspiring and have the most wonderful calming feeling - they always bring to mind the importance of intention when doing. Thank you for sharing your creative process 💫

Thank you for your video. I needed to hear you this morning! You inspire me! From Louisiana 💕

Absolutely beautiful, new follower here!

Jess-you are so lovely…I love the painting that declared itself a landscape. So clear to me, all the fuss and arrangement of things is the artists’ life, I’ve been like this since I was a child. It’s bliss!

I love your videos :)

Wonderful video. I really believe organizing and refreshing our spaces are essential to the creative process. It allows our energy to divert to a different kind of creativity, giving our focus a pause. Refreshed and organized spaces are compelling and inviting! I love the pegboard - it showcases the value of the paints in your professional world.

I enjoy your videos and love your artwork. Your voice is very calming, so I think it makes you extra special with your content. Where did you purchase your art desks and drawers? I want to reorganize my studio space and like your setup.

Lovely calming video 😊

amazing video, Jess!! <3 (i'm from Brazil)

Great video! I had my first craft sale after 5 years. It went really well and it was really nice meeting people who connect with my art.

Hi Jess. I watched this as I sit on the floor(!) surrounded by teaching binders as I sort and recycle and get ready to get rid of loads of stuff. I, too, want to start working on new art projects but my small space is so cluttered with things I “might need someday”(ahem) but that I never end up using. Part of my issue is that when my space is perfectly tidy, I can’t find anything. I need to see my art supplies and then my creativity jumps up and down clapping when it finds that perfect quin violet and I put it next to, oh, I don’t know, a manganese blue that glows in the dark. You know the one by DS. Alas, dear soul, I swear we think so often in similar patterns. I’d love to share my art with you but don’t want to here as it’s not about me. I love how you delicately replaced Pierre’s paw. So cute. Be well. And may you wear your day with ease. Dana

I will be moving into a new apartment - one that we will own not rent - here in Portugal this fall. I will install so many of your ideas in my tiny studio space! Thanks so much for sharing. May I ask - how long does it take your small oils on raw canvas to dry?

I always look forward to your videos ❤. I'm a ceramic artist working from home. I converted my living room into my pottery studio. My workspace is always evolving, and your videos are a great source of inspiration ❤. I've been trying to wake up earlier in the morning these days, and it's been a game changer. What time do you like to wake up to get your day started? Keep the videos coming 😊

~*Gets the vaccum cleaner and duster out to sort my studio* ~😁

Love those wilting sun flowers!~! Love your studio…..

never worked with oilpaints, but your newly built tube Station seems to be very handy when working with these kind of paints. I also love your botanical art that resembles the japanese ink art. I used to have a Phase like this many years ago, where I was very inspired by the japanese ink drawings and paintings. I really should do some of these again. It is also very nice to see you pulling tarot cards. I also do this in my daily practice and it helpes me so much to reflect on life, my needs, my relationships, everything. ❤ Have a great time turning your creative Storm into wonderful pieces of art 😘🙋🏻‍♀️

So lovely to get organised. Such joy ❤

Love love love your videos ❤❤ i really like how you permit yourself to experience other mediums and styles! I feel like flowers are your current muse! Sooo beautiful! Very of often as artists we tend to stay in the same style over and over, afraid to try something new that would remove us from the consistency of our “known to all” art style. What freedom stepping outside our comfort zone brings 😊 namaste 🙏

Hi, love watching your videos and find them so grounding. Your voice, your calm daily intentions and your general outlook on life are just so uplifting. Thank you 😊

Lovely, you always inspire me to tidy my studio up 😂. We had a fabulous time in Arizona, saw so much changing landscape it was a real treat and I’ve taken so many photographs I don’t know where to start! I was given loads of old slate roof tiles last year, so I’m going to be recreating some of those landscapes onto the slate. Unfortunately I only have one week left before it’s back to school, 😢 but I know I’ll be in the studio in the evenings so that’s ok. The allotment is going well, getting back on top of the weeds after being away 😂 but we are there tomorrow morning to continue, got rained off the last few days, and my mum was looking after the greenhouse veggies for us, so they are happy. One thing I did do, was paint two Koi and have printed them off as small prints, and into frames, to take to the next farmers market and craft fair in the next village next month, will see how they go…looking forward to the next video! ❤

IT' S BEAUTIFUL! What type of ink are you using? I see two bottles beside.

I love Kylie Flavel too!!

So thrilled for you. What an inspiring space.

I am definitely grabbing some of those overalls to paint in. 😉 loving these glimpses into your process.

It is a lovely journey you are on. It’s funny with my ADHD brain - I need to watch your videos at 1.25 speed! Then your voice sounds more at the correct tempo for my internal way of observing things. 😉

Thank you for sharing this…we are moving this fall and I will have a very small bedroom to create into my art studio. You have me some great inspiration, Jess!

Your videos are always so soothing and inspiring for me. As an artist and nature lover myself, I find the cycles of gaia to be the best medicine . Love and hugs to you Jess! :)

I enjoyed seeing your fine abstract work. We have had a similar path in art. I was a commercial artist, illustrator/ designer for a major corporation for many years that had hundreds of clients, and I freelanced as well. I wrote and illustrated some children's books too. I saw that you did that type of thing as well. I always try to defy labels and even the word artist throughs me off because I just seem like a builder or something. I simply make things that are artful. The background of forty plus years in design helps me as a painter of modernist abstract work which is relatively new for me and I'm loving it. Do you feel that your background is the foundation of your modernist work? There's a lot of design to it. I was primarily in my fine art work a contemporary realist painter that switched over to abstract and still trying to figure out if it's a season that will change. Abstract work fascinates me in decision making of when to stop and not overwork things. In realist work everything is planned out and generally I know pretty much what the finish will look like, and abstract is the opposite of that which I find joy in.

Just found your channel, love your art and your energy is just calm and so pleasant. I like how you call your pieces “studies”. Beautiful space! Thanks for sharing and inspiring ❤
