I am amazed with the size of that sand dollar and thank you for the glimpse of the ocean at the end of your video. Glad to see you are more comfortable with your choices regarding your business. i think it would be really difficult juggling having inventory in a store and online at the same time. I think the only way a person could do that without stress is if the inventory in the store was treated as if it had already sold and wasn't listed online. A person would be having to stock both and there would be the pressure to get both done and that pressure would I expect take the enjoyment out of the artistry. Once that's taken out it is just work. I think you are a talented artist and a talented business woman, I admire that.

It is so beautiful where you live. I loved that you showed the sunset on the beach at the end of your video. I could watch those waves at that time of the day forever. I'm glad to see your enjoying yourself with your hunter, he seems like he would be a fun kind of guy to spend time with.

I have followed you for years. I used to get paid for my art but never as successful as you. But I notice that you tend to isolate yourself out of fear from things. Like the Hunter, who is now your bf. Recently you have expressed how selling is difficult and dealing with all it entails. I think you are in a place in your life where you maybe need a break. But …. My thought is for you to stay true to yourself but not give up all you built. Try to not get frustrated. It’s not an easy business doing what you do but you have so much more success than so many other entrepreneur artists. Just sell your items at the price you want. If you need to create a discount, do it. But it’s not personal. What you create is beautiful. Isolate from the emotions with selling your art. Artists are emotional about their craft but try to isolate it from sales.

I love the bubbles when the water rushes in to the shore. I would love to live where you live, it's such a beautiful area. Maybe you need a bit of a break to give you time to recharge your energy and then let the magic flow.

I really enjoy your vlogs. It's refreshing to see how another person is working through the issues that life brings. In my opinion you're handling life's challenges with grace and strength (with God's help). Did the shop owner actually call you out for your video?

Could you have the awning on a bunch of hinges so you can prop it up or leave it down depending?

I honestly think it’s just the way someone in that field thinks… because it’s all open he was trying to protect you from the elements. You are coming from the creative side of needing light.

I'm loving those blues and purples and the mushrooms are cute.

I really enjoyed your Vlog today. Beautiful sunsets and the ocean, anemones, and watching the joy you are living, its good to see. I also find that watching you paint with the wax is real calming. I was wondering if changing your light bulbs would make a difference. There are ones that are soft white but I got some that were a natural light for my daughter once, not sure if they still make them. I like incandescent but I'm pretty sure they don't make those anymore. Best wishes for figuring out your lighting issues. I actually liked the hoodies you weren't happy with especially the Fuschia one. I thought it was magenta, lol, I don't know much about dye colors.

It WAS an exciting and interesting vlog! I hope you release the one you made yesterday, too.

Your hair is blending beautifully. I was thinking it looks rather spectacular today. Maybe hanging some mirrors or leaning some against a wall, ir something. That could reflect the existing light. Just a thought. The fuschia shade is pretty. You'll figure it out! You always do!

Maybe you can do some microdosing 🍄‍🟫- it helps tremendously.

Installing bigger windows or another window and also put in a skylight would help with the light but bitcoin would first have to reach $100 LOL

procion powder dyes and a journal for formulated mixes helps me with mixing up colors consitently

Even your man will say that you are .not capable of being boring. You're far , far from boring. That's why we keep coming back. Can't wait for your story time.

I'm glad you realized by the end of the video that the pants were too big, not YOU. I loved walking the beach with you and hearing how well you're doing!

Glad you are so happy! Cheers!❤🎉

It's so great to see you again and to catch up on what you've been up to 😊

Are you waiting for your hair to grow 2 inches before we get another vlog LOL

I live in Oregon. I'm an artist and also almost 55! In January ❤! I think you should keep your hair growing without bangs! Your hair is awesome! I've grown my hair since the pandemic and am loving it! Do it! I'm so happy for you! Love your blog! ❤

Congratulations so happy for you! ❤

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I am obsessed with your coat!! Do you mind if I ask you what kind it is? Love it!

Woo hoo! Great to see you. Don't kick us to the curb since you may have some nay sayers. Who cares as long as you are happy with your man!

Very nice lesson ! How to get those tools

Wild footage. Never seen anything quite like that before. A piece of hamlet literally coverd in water.

Yesh, I don't think it will work out speaking from personal experience

I'm happy for you!

You're glowing! Whether it works out or not it's worth the adventure. 😊❤

I’m glad you worked through your thoughts and he was right there to make up. He gets you.

Genesis 1:16 ❤👏👏👏

i’m not a man that’s a pic of my dad

When someone lights a fire in your soul!

I'm so happy for you!

Your spirits are lifted ❤

hi

I identify as a dolphin. I suggest upping your meds. You seem a little more than unhinged.

i do see an imbalance.

If "him" is watching......do yourself a favor...RUN!!!!!!! Jeez, what an annoying woman.

im a man but no worries i identify as a goldfish

Hello, friend, I watch and like your videos on my husband's account (Gene France) because he has a subscription to you tube. Please don't cut me off. I'm a batik and tie dye artist and I really get a lot of inspiration and value from all of your videos. I don't ever comment under his account name because it would be misleading but it's just me. And yes these are a treat to watch and you're providing ME a valuable service. I've had similar life experiences and can really identify with you.

A guy at work today told me his initial 8k in bitcoin is now 56k.

People that I have blocked… once I get in a better head space I sometimes just unblock. To leave the door unlocked but not necessarily wide open.

Amen. Preach truth girl! It's your channel. You call the shots and own it!

I wish the hunter would comment if he's listening.

It looks great!

You have good ideas and you are on a roll 👍 gonna be a great and productive time . I have a question, did you do the painting that hangs behind the clothing rail in your work room ? I love it 🥰 and would really like to see some more of your paintings if you felt like showing them . Best wishes 😊

Looks great! It's got to feel right,to work right.

If he wanted to be your husband... it seems like he'd behave differently. He may be a poor match.

Such a cute dress! Hope you are well! Missing our group!
