Hi, what's your timeframe to finish 1 book?
Hi there, I really enjoy the calmness of your videos, so warming and so cozy. I especially love the beautiful view looking out from your window, as a kid I've always been fascinated with watching and hearing the sound of the breeze blowing through the trees, it's so calming and therapeutic and best of all, it's all freee for us all to enjoy. It takes a very strong minded person to visit their local bakery and not come out of there without buying a sweet treat....I sadly don't have that will power😂 You asked yourself whether you'll ever get bored or tired of drawing as you draw every day...... well, take it from someone who has been drawing all of his life, you never get bored of it!! Infact, you'll find your drawing skills will improve and that in return will inspire you to create even more beautiful work. As well as seeing the artwork that you've created you'll also be able to feel inside that you are improving and that's a priceless feeling. I absolutely love watching vlogs about people ( such as yourself ) who have taken that bold step into turning their hobby/ passion into a fulltime career, it's so inspiring and it proves with hard work & dedication, you can achieve your dream goals. I really wish you good health, and may your channel continue to grow and help inspire others out there to help realise their dreams and make it their own reality. Lots of Love & Best Wishes ❤😊
This is so inspiring 😍 lovely that you can work on projects that feel close to your heart with the picture books 💕 i am working on coloring book project myself and am struggling with getting it done as it's a self imposed deadline and there is no guarantee it'll sell at all, lately i feel a bit discouraged. But your video warmed my soul, thank you ❤️
you two are so cute together. Love your videos. They're so helpful, but I also love listening to your videos while I sketch to stay inspired.
Oh funny to see polish snacks that I know from my childhood 😀
Thank you for sharing your day with us. I have been working on my first book this week and it is really fun. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you for sharing your day with us, you are a big inspiration! 🥰
I absolutely love your color palette, and your whimsical style of your work. It just evokes nice thoughts and happiness looking at it.
Dear Mimi, thank you so much for being so inspiring! I really needed to hear these words.
I look forward to your videos, Mimi.😊 I find them inspiring and fun.💕
Loved this vidoe❤ thank you so much! This is so beautiful amd calming
Very nice video! Full of inspiration and positivity, thank you!🥰
The whole entire atmosphere is so calming and soothing. You're so lucky to see these beautiful things around you. You're an inspiration.😊
Thank you for sharing your day. It's a beautiful way of living, illustrating and connecting to nature. Love the encouragement and insights you share on your channel.
I loved the little duckling. I am totally a tea and snack girl too.
Your videos give me hope. I can't thank you enough. I have a LONG way to go, but your videos help me to press forward.
So lovely and cozy!
So heart warming 💕☺️🎨
Sooo heart warming! My heart would have melted if I saw those adorable baby duckies in person! Wonderful illustration Omg! You inspired me to go to my local park 😊
I love this video! Lovely to see how you break up your day, I must admit I get so lost in painting that I forget to take breaks as often as I should 🤦♀️ but this is something I'm working on 🥰🤭 How lovely to have a picnic and walk occasionally for your lunch! It looks like such a beautiful park!❤️ Love seeing your work and video as always! Rachel x
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!❤
Thank you so much for the valuable information.Its really helpful🥰
This vlog is so calming! I feel so much better and more inspired after watching it, so thank you! (Also thanks for a free month of skillshare, so useful 👀)
The fact you can draw that duck in 2 hours is amazing you have amazing talent x
Thank you Mimi for this wonderful video. I have been taken a lot more long walks to help with my inspiration. I have also learned to look closer at nature on my walk back from work and feel a lot more relax instead of rushing to and from. I reaaly appreciate your videos, they are very calm and beautiful.
That's so lovely to hear!
Love the ducks family 😍
Praha mug! Hi from Czechia
Wahhh the ducklings are so cuuute
Lovely video, I adore how excited you were about ducklings ❤️
It's funny to see Polish treats, you should definitely try dipping Paluszki in kogel-mogel - that's an ultimate 90s snack from Poland.
Greeting from Poland! Hopefully all the snacks were a good treat! I really like all the videos and super cozy vibe :D
That yellow duck, though 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I love the duck family ❤️❤️❤️
😮 I am very surprised that this video didn’t get as much likes or views, but it doesn’t matter, does it :)? All it matter is that you keep up the good work and take a break once in a while. I have recently subbed to you and I really love your art! I too am passionate about my art, you are in one of many artists that inspire me :D.
Can't wait to see this picture book in your hands!
Me tooo it's always so exciting to get the real world copies!
Harmonious day, putt hard work I saw, it's cool see the life of woman on the "area" you want work
You live somewhere fantastic, great view
Hey Mimi! I love your videos. I just wanted to add to the topic of looking after yourself as an artist - I have had a lot of wrist issues and have been trying to not only massage my arms and shoulders and stretch, but a big cruital help has been getting an ergonomic mouse and keyboard. I would have never thought it would be so helpful, but it has made such a difference. So perhaps it is something you could consider too! Mine are from Logitech, I do not know other brands' ergonomic accessories but I can definitely recommend it
Thanks for the great tip!
Ashley Weinberg has illustrated this year
❤️
fall in love with your town...and your job its amazing which country is this?
Do you crochet? I often see you in beautiful handmade sweaters and I wonder, who makes these. Also, I love the colour scheme and vibe of your art so much!♥️
I wish! I think I'd like to learn one day, there's a shop called Ghanda that does cute sweaters 😊
I’d love to get at quote for illustrations
I wish there are more Videos Like This out there ❤❤Everytime i Look up for Digital Art Videos there are mostly people using procreate on the IPads 😤🥲
Not me taking breaks after 30 mins as an illustrator
Hollo Mimi ! I love your drawing and I want to know what kind of laptop you use for your illustrations ?
Great video. Where did you get you picture book jobs from?
aw can never have too many fluffly ducklings to look at😀
They're the cutest!
Thanks for sharing! Your videos are very inspiring and professionally presented. ❤
I have a question for you, can you please tell me the name of the company that made your laptop’s holder? I am looking to buy one like yours. Thanks!
Would you recommend a laptop/tablet or an iPad for digital illustrating? I'm not sure which one to go for
What are you doing on the keyboard with your left hand as you’re drawing on the tablet?
What are the exercises you do for your shoulder?
Hi! I was wondering, which app would you recommend for artists??
Man this video was like a balm for my eyes.
... but in a good way.
Hi Mimi! Which tablet are you use?
What program/app do you use for your drawings?
Which laptop did you use
Hi can you please share the link of the laptop stand?
Hi, Shrinidhi! I've got a brand new page on my website where i link all my digital illustration gear. My laptop stand is on there too: www.mimimooillustration.com/my-art-gear
what kind of computer?
What if I don't have a laptop tablet
How can I draw on my tablet and send it to my laptop 💻?
Did you be teacher on Skillshare yet?
What you wake up?
