I was telling myself something similar last night when I was doing a diamond painting (my first time trying them), I realised it's taken me a couple of weeks to get about half way through it and then had a sudden urge to start rushing to get it finished, then I was like "no, this is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable, keep taking your time, who cares if you're going slow?"

This was a random video in my feed. But so apt for the journey I'm taking on. So happy that you guys talked about children's book illustration and the tips and stages are very much appreciated.❤❤thank you😇

A lot of useful information. Thanks to both of you :)

Polina, we were in Valencia last weekend, I thought on you, a very beautiful town, best wishes 🌸

Спасибо огромное за музыку, невероятно приятно и атмосферно🌸🥹♥️

amazing technique....i just watch it now.. because I'm interested in surface pattern design..❤

Your video quality is excellent, but views are falling short. I can help resolve these issues if you're interested.

this nourishes my soul ❤

It is too fast

Artists love their arts, some don’t, quitting is fine, but still if you quit that’s fine

I am brand new at any kind of art. About a year ago I picked up embroidery, which I love very much. I just don’t have much time for. Then I found oil pastel painting. And I have quite a knack for it. I absolutely love it, and I never was much of an artist. But I am now.😊

I used to love drawing as a kid but my skills were not supported by my family because we leave in a third world country. After 23 years, I have decided to rediscover those skills. Just baby steps, I feel like a kid starting to draw. I cant't even make an apple look like an apple. After a month practice, its all coming back. Still not perfect though.

you are so good at drawing and keep going if not for your self do it for me. i love drawing and im 11 years old im still trying to learn 👍👍👍👍👍

Can you wash it?

Cool ty!

Beautiful, love the message & I happen to already have that song on my playlist! (Cigarettes after Sex “Apocalypse”) ❤️

💕 I needed to hear this!

Lindo e inspirador, era o que eu precisava ver hoje, obrigada!!!!

Your art is fantastic! I love seeing how you bring your ideas to life. I'm on a similar journey, sharing my own techniques and creative process on my channel. It’d be awesome if you stopped by sometime-always great to connect with other artists!💙

Crazy how much this says if you pay attention. Might be projecting. But did ya notice as he went on, the pigment lessens. Kind of like pain/trauma. As time goes on, as you keep painting. It fades and fades. Until theres almost nothing left. Or this could just be asmr. That sound is tasty and healing in itself.

Haha! no.

love your art, what brand of sketchbook/paper do you use? I'm not sure what paper to use with acrylic markers. love from the Netherlands🎨🖌️🖍️

Beautiful 🖍️🎨

Your work is so beautiful

I’m SO BEYOND GRATEFUL for showing a simple way to crest interesting repeats! Please make more as you mentioned you would. Thank you again

Thank you for this video! I am a starting tapestry artist, who is as well working full-time as a designer, but feeling that I don't want to do this forever, just like Luiza said she felt as well - so very relatable. This video found me at the right time. Luiza is very inspiring!

Looks great! Are you happy with your over head tripod? Which brand is it?

Thabk you for your live videos with artists .❤

Lady you literally saved my a$$, with this I can finally understand my school assignment. ❤️

I really like how you choose colors ❤. Started drawing again after I saw your works on IG. I am inspired by you. Hope to find my own style also.

This is so exciting! Thank you!!!

Thank you so much, very inspiring conversation! ❤

Dear Polina , your voice doesnt come loud hard to understand maybe because of the microphone .I just wanted to feedback for a better quality of the video .

thank you fo the video .What is the artist's name or her instagram ?

Great interview, very interesting! It's great to see how we can integrate AI into our work, in a good way, while keeping everything creative (the human touch). And like Hanna said, AI will continue to evolve. So whether we like it or not, we'd better find a way to use it in a positive way, to our advantage.

Thank you for having me

Every page is amazing!

Hi polina which program is free to draw patterns on ? No adobe or photoshop

Oh nice! I'm building up courage to update some tatty old cabinets we hid in the attic.......

Thank you POlina for this amazing video live sessions .And thank you Mabel Tan for all the honest tips and experiences shared with us.Hope comes the second program.
