Relaxing Paint with Me! (Portrait + Q&A)

  • Let's do a chill paint with me session! It's been a while since I've done a portrait, so I wanted to do my yearly self-portrait with acrylic paints while hanging out with you! Let's also chat, make art, and do a Q&A! Questions kindly provided by you folks! :)
    Instead of speeding this up as a time-lapse, it's been VERY meticulously edited to cut out every time I dipped my paint brush in my paints or water, every time I mixed paints, pauses, etc. If brush strokes looked really similar, I also cut those. This makes the viewing process much easier for you, and saves my computer. :) Otherwise, this video would be a whopping 12-14 hours long, and I think my computer would honestly break if I attempted to render a video at that length! Anyway, I hope this provides you with relaxation and gives you a safe and inspiring space to be creative!

    I love love love this video! I can’t express enough how much you’re my kind of people. I’m also an experimental artist or as you would say: “a style hopper”. I run on coffee and the occasional tea. I’m a morning sloth and recently got diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Which I’m positively working through and every little progress is a high-five worthy step for me 😁. I’m a spiritual person so I’m aware that the Lord has perfect timing. I love this hang out and I’ll be rewatching again while I paint something. Much love to you & stay creative 💕

    Seeing the portrait come alive with each paint stroke is so awesome, especially the print on the shirt! Your videos encourage me to keep painting and also calm my anxiety. I just finished the base coat for 10 planters I'm painting as different Pokémon, and this video was absolutely perfect for my painting today. ❤
