I had the amazing opportunity to be flown to Texas for my first creator trip! It was so lovely meeting some new friends and doing little activities together. I also share my favorite art supplies since so many of you had questions about them from my last video. Thank you for the love, enjoy~

Some of you over here on KZbin told me that you didn't know my shop was back open! As a little secret treat that only you will see over here... for the next week as a little thank you, I'll be having 20% off because I am so grateful that we now have 200k of you here. Thank you so much for the continuous love for my videos and my work!! ILY

Your creativity is beautiful 😍

[@Nurthecat]

That portrait of Theo turned out so pretty and special…what a precious gift to receive ❤

[@lilhungry2068]

Her vlogs are therapy. Better help? Nah Apple cheeks? Absolutely

[@apple.cheeks]

hehe

[@zeljkaciciban6213]

literally, every time I feel down I put the vlog playlist on (also ❤ for lee know)

[@belle132]

I would have cried if I got something like that Theou painting! The beads and bowtie were great touches! So precious 💖 Congratulations on 200k, Tiffany!!! Hope you get to check off more of your goals for this year and beyond. Thank you for creating this space for us. Appreciate you.

the theo portrait. THE THEO PORTRAITS!!

[@benipray]

The painting of Theo is absolutely stunning!!! The use of color is chefs kiss

[@ChantelleArts]

That painting is the cutest birthday present! I never would’ve thought to sew things on like that 😮

[@pandispandis]

Watching you paint the purple Theo portrait made me cry, literally. Just beyond beautiful! 💕

[@artistikitty]

Theo painting is JUST THEEEEEE BEST❣️

[@gwenritch]

Theo painting is stunning. What a heartwarming gift!

[@SarahScript]

loved watching the process of painting theo!! and how cool to see two of my favorite artist youtubers meeting! 💖

[@memoatelier]

You are so talented! Theo's portrait is stunning!

[@sypherianlp]

Honestly I've been loving all of these videos. It's like we're watching a Tiffany renaissance. All of the art has been delicious.

[@pegeek77]

Oh my 🤯🤯 the final boss painting is amazing !!!! Thank you for the video, it was sweet !

[@user-hp7di1qs1l]

The Theo portrait is gorgeousssssss!! Everything is so pretty about it, the underpainting, the whispi-ness of his whiskers where some look out of focus and some in focus, the soft fur in bright, vivid colors, THE BEADS AND THE BOWWWW. It's perfect. Also, congratulations on 200k!!

[@augustatkinsonillustration5341]

Congratulations on hitting 200k, Tiffany!!! I hope your channel will grow.

[@ajadelarosa9773]

The Theo portrait is the cutest thing ive ever seen!!

[@pepostudios]

Omg can we acknowledge the transition between the hammering and the beat of the next song? Genius, A+, amazing execution 👏

[@maisartcafe]

I love cats so much but I always find them the hardest to draw. I love both of your portraits so much and how effortless it seemed to make them. Your art is so beautiful, I’m so always mesmerized by it. ❤

[@_.lorelei._]

That portrait... SO CUUUTEEE! 😻😭

[@artbyinky]

I love your videos so much! You’re one of the few bigger artists on here who actually take breaks and make art to just make art in between business stuff. And I totally get how you feel about making products, you’re probably just burned out and needed time to rest and be creative again. I’ve been learning to balance art for commercial/ profit purposes and art just for myself. Also, I wear a very similar outfit when I have my work from home days- high socks with the slippers, shorts, crop top and big chunky cardigan!

[@apple.cheeks]

When my life feels too business, I get too sad. But too much art, I also feel sad. I'm always finding balance !

[@artbyinky]

@@apple.cheeks so very true! We need a break from both time to time.

[@clatisciagomes3625]

Love your videos, your art , your vibe , it’s everything ❤️

[@DanyaStoyanova]

I am utterly in love with this painting

[@TheStainedCanvasArt]

The line variation you get with the large black posca is amazing. I think I'm going to see if it's available in my area. Thanks for another great video!

[@apple.cheeks]

It's so fun!!

[@girlbehindthereddoor]

I bought those super thick posca paint pens thanks to you and I love them!!

[@natalieastravars7313]

The kitty painting is absolutely gorgeous!! love the colour palette so much!

[@conmeows]

Your curled hair is so cute

[@CreativePhenomenonArt]

“Now to face the final boss”😂😂 Girl …….🥰you so get me😢

[@cgilbert210]

[@chrsmoreau]

here early!!!

[@apple.cheeks]

good morning

[@margueriteguineheux8139]

Not sure if you will see this comment but I was wondering what you think of working at drafting tables. I notice you work on flat surfaces. Any thoughts anyone?

[@dori.whateva4614]

what type of paint do u use for underpainting? love u❤

[@apple.cheeks]

Liquitex Acrylic Paint!

[@magalilaforest2540]

What kind of paint did you use for the Theo portrait? It’s so impressive and satisfying to watch!!!

[@apple.cheeks]

I mainly use a lot of Liquitex Professional Grade (mixed with lots of water because it's kinda chunky) for Acrylics. I feel like it's a good in between of price for what you pay for and it's very saturated which I love~

[@magalilaforest2540]

@@apple.cheeks oh thank you so much i’ll try them! :)

[@lovelyS2s]

Could you link your necklaces? ☺️ Theyre so pretty!

[@apple.cheeks]

Most of them are vintage or heirlooms! But some of my favorite jewelry makers are BittersweetNY and July Rose :)

Yes very beautiful you

[@sarahh.9063]

That's what I needed to stop running everywhere for nothing ! Thank you so much ! Love you so much ❤️ Btw, I'm a content writer since January but I'm not making any income. Do you have any tips for a new freelancer like me ? I'm still a baby freelancer and I can't help stress out so much that it makes me feel sick... I mean I don't have any missions yet and I'm desperate 😿

[@PanchitaStudio]

it is such a meaningful gift ,
