@@LenaDanya aaah thank you!! 🥰 I remember your video talking about how you're kind of like a plant 🌻 and wanted to root yourself somewhere (it really stuck with me).. I like to think I have rooted for at least the next few years and it makes me beyond happy 💞 Your store looks incredible btw.. I've loved seeing it's evolution 💙 Fingers crossed after being a long time fan I can place my first order this fall/winter when I'm a bit more settled in :) You have my support forever and always!! 🐘 Wishing you the best
Hello Lena! It's always a pleasure to see you paint while listening to you. Your creation is so dope, the details and all, it's too amazing! Have a great day!❤
Dear Lena, this painting is a masterpiece. Just stunning! I love almost all of your paintings, but this one is my favorite so far. =) A note on your struggle with the violet underpainting... I recognised problems with starting portraits on a very purple background in some of my older works. I think it's because when you try to mix your skintones as usual and put them on top of the purple, they appear way more yellowish. Probably because it's a complementary contrast. =D Of course the skintone you've created here looks very natural. Not at all too yellow or in anyway off. =) Hope to see more portraits with abstract backgrounds like this in the future. You can trust that side of your inner artist. =D Happy painting!
😍 I actually really like the glow from the purple under painting! And that blossom bloom, wow! I really relate to your description of the struggle to balance realism and painterly freedom. Sometimes it’s less about the product and more about enjoying the process!!
I love this looser look. Painting outside your comfort zone is always a bit uncomfortable but as long as you don't let the obstacles defeat you and you don't give up too soon, you can be rewarded with a wonderful and inspiring result. Bravo!
First time watching one of your videos. A fascinating collaboration of two artistic spirits. This definitely seemed uncomfortable for you, but at first glance, this seemed a VERY valuable exercise. The artist that values accuracy and realism is going to be pushed out of a comfort zone by this painting, and the original, expressive artistic vision in you doesn't have the same depth and variety of tools. YET. Again, this is only my impression, but as the free innovator pushes her accurate counterpart into new problems, that painter is going to become more adept at finding solutions to get that vision on canvas with accuracy. A synthesis of the two, giving you a wider selection of options that you feel comfortable with. Freedom to put your ideas on canvas in the way YOU see fit. Just my impression. Gorgeous and impressive painting!
Your skill is impeccable! This is stunning! It's one of my favourite pieces of yours. The tree is so beautiful! I definitely understand two artists warring within. I'm trying to do an imposto piece, but every so often I freak, get my brushes out, smooth everything best I can, and make it realistic again. Only to get frustrated for not being brave, and trying again and going back and forth so many times to the point now that even if I were to try and smooth it out there's so much texture I'd have to sand it down. Lol. So at least that's forcing me to continue. It's very much a trust the process piece and it's really intimidating to try something so different. You really inspire me and I love all your work so much. I love road trips so your paintings of streets are a definite highlight. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your beautiful creations, helpful lessons, and your thoughts about your process for all these years. ♡
This is such a beautiful painting! I love the different hues of purple you used! I thought I was the only one painting with a baby monitor in my studio nowadays. It is definitely adventure balancing artist and mommy life. ❤
I am from Taiwan, and I am a lover of art and architecture. I saw your paintings for the first time on youtube by chance. It is really pleasing to the eye, superb skills, amazing, great!
I love this beautiful tree nymph! She’s surrounded by the spirit of spring for sure! I see those cherry trees all over the place in the spring and I can see why you would be inspired by them. I think you’ve struck a really good balance between restraint and freedom here. Amazing work and super inspiring to watch!
shes done it again folks 😍 thank god for you lena youre amazing as always, your talent remains endlessly inspiring 🙏🏻 hope you baby and hubby are all healthy and happy!
It is such a joy to watch you paint! Make more videos please. You heal my soul. Wondering when you are restarting 'Sketchbook Sundays'. It was so inspiring for all of us. Thank you. 💜💜💜💜
With shadows of the K of light or led light to florescent.....the violent,,to yellow. Or orange.. but the prisum is key. To feelings...and emotions.. much Love...Russ. my best to your Tribe.
Your art is so beautiful. I love how you got inspiration from the trees you'd seen and that you are trying to come out of your comfort zone with your art! The background is stunning. I'm always a sucker for more absctract pieces. Also you've had a baby!? Congrats! Thats amazing. Love your art! Definitely am going to check out your shop.
It's like she's emerging from an ethereal mist into the foreground of our conscious awareness. I love the dimentionality of the piece. Maybe a personification of that hidden artist, perhaps? She is beautiful. Much love, and support, as always. ❤
That was an ornamental cherry tree btw, incase you didn't know. I'm in Vancouver B.C. Canada and we have them all over here. Very common on the west coast. We have the cherry blossom festival in spring when they are all in bloom. The painting turned out beautifully, I actually really love the tone the purple underpainting gave to the whole composition.
Yah is soo awesome. Just gotta love his beautiful trees and nature. Which can really inspire. I love realism in a fantasy setting Because those are things that don't exist but it's made to look as if it does.
I think a lot of artists can relate to what you said about loving details but having a part of yourself trapped and wanting to explore and be free. Ahhh the purple tree...or was it violet?
I can so relate … when you proceed past a stage of the painting that you really liked … then fear that it’s ruined and wanting to go back … but proceeding on to something else good and unexpected and probably unachievable unless you took the risk!!!
I LOVE this one! Congrats on trying something different, it can be hard to step out of your comfort zone even when you want to. Also I love the purple under painting lol
Hi Lena, come across your video and loved watching it. So nice the artworks are and attracted me the inspiration you took from nature.. blossoms is really amazing and motivating. Lots of likes ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤and you look so beautiful like your paintings😊😊
Belated congratulations! 🎉 your artwork is just as inspiring, and your process is as magical as it's been in the years I've followed you. Keep up the good work!
I love this painting. I totally want to buy a print! I wish there was a size between the legal size and the big one because the legal is too small and the big one too big. But I'll probably still pick up the smaller one. Love this so much!
Hey!! are you planning to make a. Video like you ued to "a week in life of a artist"?? Or ask the artist qna type??? Thise are one of my favourite❤🔥 3:39 and when you said messing with the painting here on it starts looking completely amazing 🤩❤❤❤
Hi Lena I was watching one of your sketchbook Sunday's and was wondering if you were bringing that back anytime soon. I really enjoy watching your art videos.
I think the yellow bit on the upper right corner was the perfect addition to contrast the general purple tone of the piece. It improved it so much ^^ Love this piece, the woman and the flowers are stunning. Maybe you could experiment with painting some of abstractions before painting the main subject. I saw that approach with Eva Gamayun here on CZcams and I think you may like it :)
Apparently, I published this video with the comments turned off. Oops. Now they're on 😂
Anyway, hi!! how is your weekend so far?
LOVE YOUUUU!! thanks for sharing the painting & inspo 💖💮 weekend is good, decorating the home :)
@@chinarapiriyevaaww home decorating sounds like a fun weekend!! 😍 thanks so much for your support, much love ❤️❤️❤️

What a beautiful painting. I still cherish the prints I bought from you many years ago
Lena, I'm sorry to keep asking you this, but about how much would the original run? If you were willing to sell it?
Hello Lena! It's always a pleasure to see you paint while listening to you. Your creation is so dope, the details and all, it's too amazing!
Have a great day!❤
Thank you so much!
You are right😮
This painting is absolutely gorgeous! Happy to see you let yourself have some freedom/experimentation in it!
Thank you so much!

Haha that was exactly my problem, all my colors felt too yellow-ish green😂
Thank you for your support ❤️❤️❤️
😍 I actually really like the glow from the purple under painting! And that blossom bloom, wow!
I really relate to your description of the struggle to balance realism and painterly freedom. Sometimes it’s less about the product and more about enjoying the process!!
I feel the same about the glow from the purple underpainting!
oho wow this is so beautiful and I can imagine so many stories
thank you!❤️❤️❤️

"Experiment" she says, and then proceeds to paint an absolutely stunning piece!
👌👌👌 Дивовижна робота! Дуже красиво! ❤❤❤

This is such a beautiful painting! I love the different hues of purple you used! I thought I was the only one painting with a baby monitor in my studio nowadays. It is definitely adventure balancing artist and mommy life. ❤
This is gorgeous! I'm glad you are becoming freer in your art. The experimentation in this one definitely paid off!
This turned out beautiful! Sometimes, the best pieces are made when we let ourselves experiment!
When you talked about "the two artists within you" I 100% related to it!
Even this painting like any other by you is a 10/10 (i am no one to rate but, they are so good😭💕❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful work! You're really talented. Greetings from Italy 🌹🌹🌹
