Love your new hair cut, looks beautiful!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Lori!

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

Wow your hairstyle looks fabulous! Cool looking t-shirt! Those are gorgeous workspaces that each of your patrons have got. They are all very beautifully organized & gives me inspiration for many ideas for my future art studio space. Presently my space is still much smaller than any of the others shared. I hope to have a great art studio/shed later this year like yours is set up. Thanks for sharing this wonderful inspirational video with us! 🥰

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Colleen. I'd love to see your studio/shed when you get it set up. Send me an email when you do. 💕

[@annewatman677]

I love her new hairstyle too!

[@ThatJewyJesusChick]

The hair is LOVELY lady-suits you so nicely! The video was WONDERFUL! I adored seeing everyone’s spaces SO MUCH! Each was equally charming and had such unique character while also having lots of similarities in terms of functionality it seems! This is the third indication I have received in the last 24 hours letting me know it’s time I do a studio tour on my own channel! Anyone interested in seeing my studio (I have only 16 subs and 4 videos😂) please feel free to come take a look. As always crushing the art creation game, Louise!!! 👍🏻🥰

[@marciawalker3527]

That new do takes 10 off! You always look great but wow!!!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Wonderful compilation of real painting spaces! Thanks for putting this together:)

[@pattioneill3849]

Love your new cut! You look great. Thanks for all your beautiful art. Patti O.

[@julialguns9675]

Thank you for the tour of the workspaces…and love your haircut! Really lovely.

[@annenglish2935]

You look fantastic! Just beautiful! Thanks for sharing!!! ❤ A California Gramma ❤

[@TimBissettMedia]

Great video Louise. Really enjoyed seeing your space and the others. And of course, as always, your outtakes/bloopers are so worth staying till the very end! 🤣🤣 Great T-Shirt too! 👍

[@meeraahuja1594]

Love your new hair style. You are looking beautiful. I have no workspace, not even a table to work on.

[@anjikauffman6416]

Your hair is adorable! ❤️ I completely lost what you were talking about... 🤣

[@velviteenrabbitt]

Gosh you hair Louise you look so beautiful ❤ Fantastic video. Your content is always spot on thanks x And thanks to your students for sharing their spaces!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

You're very kind. Thank you! ❤️

[@karenwhite1541]

I am new to painting-took it up after my retirement. I love to look at others work space. I am currently transforming my old office into a work studio. My husband is making all of the work surfaces😊

[@anniefeld2158]

You are so beautiful with your new cut👍👍👍

[@lisap5615]

Yes, I agree with the others. Your haircut looks amazing! It's a great fit for your facial features. Also, your presentations are always wonderful and interesting. This tour of watercolor studios, large and small, was so inspiring. I don't have a dedicated space set up yet, but I do have a little sitting area in my bedroom with a desk and an unused dresser that could probably work. It looks like to me that having things organized to meet your painting needs is more important than the amount of space when you are just starting out.

[@janacvk1112]

Helpful. In my various moves I've had small spaces and a dedicated room (miss that room!) and now my husband and I share our 'studio', my side all about art, his multiple computers for business and a piano...I have to work around his business schedule but use the dining room table as needed. It all comes down to making the best of your space and doing 'the work'! Cheers.

[@chayaq6690]

I don't have a lot of space in our apartment but I see that a dedicated space with some organization would be very helpful. Thanks for this.

[@alisonhendry2928]

I love how your fans all notice the wonderful new hair cut! Me included! Beautiful! Thank you for this sharing. I was taking screen shots to keep for future reference when I need to make a new studio set up when we move back to Canada and I lose my glorious garage apartment space. Fabulous ideas from your patrons and great idea for this KZbin .

[@dao8805]

Screenshots for reference - great idea.

[@Hammertoez]

This was a great video, thank you, lovely to see how other people set up. I’m privileged to have a separate space for my art recently, and still working out what works best.

[@roseannebyrne7233]

I love that your painting area gets a little bit messy when you’re working. I feel better now. I’m mid decluttering teaching stuff and next up is craft stuff I haven’t touched in decades. I want a calm peaceful place to paint. Mess is really inhibiting for me.

[@dao8805]

Louise, your new hairstyle is so very flattering, just lovely. You are brave to try new things and make changes and this one is a real winner! Missed seeing darling Leo but enjoyed the studio tours. I can't believe the inventories of paper and brushes that some of these artists have - it's almost like they have their own in-house shops! I have to be careful how much I spend and find that it actually helps me focus on priorities and learn to use what I have in different ways. One thing I did not see were any mat cutting systems or framing set-ups even though some of the spaces definitely had room. I can relate mostly to the smaller spaces for now but we can all dream. Congratulations on your graduation to a large, beautiful studio: You have earned it!

[@debi_rodriguez]

Wow! I love love love your new haircut! you look fantastic!

[@janetalbot6529]

Great video. It would be great to see some of your students work as well 😊

[@pearluser22]

Your interior design taste is amazing and inspiring!

[@afternoononthedock]

So inspirational, thank you! When we moved and I had to (temporarily) give up a really functional, dedicated space for painting. But soon we'll finish renovations and I'll have a permanent location. Can't wait! I love to leave my stuff available for daily painting. Also, your new hair style is beautiful!

[@ellengraham8001]

Your hair looks fabulous! You look younger!

[@carolpenn1155]

Thank you sharing spaces. Wish I had one like those! Love the hair.

[@nkguenther1]

Loved seeing everyone’s spaces. I have my own art room but it seldom looks as neat as these! I use IKEA drawers for paper and supplies, built in bookshelves for palettes and other supplies, a nice large desk and a large window. I love your new hair style!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you NK!

[@jademail77]

Your hair looks so cute on you!! I love all of the studio spaces! Such variety! Thank you to all for sharing!!

[@user-tg8wh7uz3j]

These are super - these tours of studios. Thank you all. Great inspiration. I have what I call my drawing table, which is the same table in Nancy's studio. I keep the drawing surface at a steep slant, so watercolor doings are at a simple but ample-in-size foldable tabe near the drawing table. The drawing table I purchased some 5+ years ago at Hobby Lobby (I think), after scrutinizing a lot of such tables online. The one that I have is moderately priced.

[@yvonnewalton2888]

Love you work space and it’s awesome to see other people’s space. I have been with you for a while now and I recognise the names of you lovely people that have given us a look into their work spaces. I’m still on the kitchen table. 😊

[@maryalgar8779]

GREAT HAIR CUT LOUISE! You look so beautiful and radiant. I have a little table in corner of fairly large bedroom along with a little 3-shelf open cabinet. There is a north facing window as well and a clamp-on light. Nothing fancy at all, but does the job. Occasionally have to go downstairs to a hobby closet to retrieve paper etc. All the spaces you showed in this video look well thought out and very workable. Thanks to your patrons for sharing their art room videos.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Mary. That sounds like the perfect place to paint.

[@cordeeskywalker4074]

That was such a fun video! So lovely to see everyone's working space as well as your beautiful studio, Louise! The hair is EVERYTHING!!! You look fantastic ❤

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Blushing- thank you so much!

[@dorisdavidson7849]

They are beautiful, very organized work spaces. Love the new hair style and clever t-shirt.

[@dijosephine9556]

A beautiful work space. Thanks for sharing the other work spaces.🥰

[@LouiseDeMasi]

A pleasure. Thank you!

[@pattycyr8662]

Thanks for showing us the various creative areas! Also, your new haircut is really great!

[@hannahcrumley3103]

This was fun to see! Thank you to your patrons who shared their lovely spaces! Btw- I love your hair !

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you Hannah.

[@claudiachicas1426]

I wish to one day have a nice room or space dedicated just for doing art... Lovely video, thanks for sharing

[@terririley186]

Thanks sooo much to you and your patrons for a lovely video giving me lots of ideas for my own working area. I simply ADORE your new haircut - it looks fabulous!!! I also love the T-shirt! Very clever and cute!!!

[@priscillamengyan6883]

Love your new hair style!! And, of course, your studio is gorgeous!! Love seeing other studios! 🥰

[@deidralewandowski2659]

that was so much fun to see all the spaces, each one with their character! love that! Thank you!

[@B1ackDahlia767]

Those "paint puck" cups are THE BEST! I have 2. :)

[@nancydunn5818]

Loved to see your students' painting spaces. I've gone from working on a very small table to having my own studio and I'm grateful for it. You look beautiful, by the way! Greetings from Mexico.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Nancy. Lucky you- that's wonderful!

[@susieford3954]

I love your work and the bloopers today were an extra treat!!!

[@goldfishgames]

I’ve had to disassemble my painting room/space due to the necessary accommodations I need because of a failed surgery. To say it’s heartbreaking is an understatement. The one thing which we all can do and become totally lost in time with is currently in plastic bins stored on shelving in an unused room upstairs. My (hopefully) short term goal is to move out the furniture which I can no longer use and bring in the things I need. I’ll then rebuild my creative space there. I will need to reduce by well over half of the supplies I had and used since I can’t physically sit for the amount of time painting requires. Also my mental patience won’t let me nor will time as I’ll have to devote so much of it for therapy. All in all not where I had looked towards being at this point. I’m still a patron but haven’t accessed it in many months. All of these studios look quite nice! Kudos to each artist.

[@JuliaFrost]

Love this video, its so nice to see other peoples painting spaces and get ideas from them!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you Julia.

[@anermila6325]

Wow I just gotta comment your new hairstyle is super gorgeous; giving you a refreshing aura. We can now see your very beautiful face❤ Love love!

[@evamarcum2520]

Love your new haircut.

[@ashleyevans3330]

You look fabulous!!!!! Wow!

[@brifren2]

Thank you so much for generously sharing all these wonderful painting spaces! They are all so inspiring!

[@fadilasides3080]

Magnifique quelle belle réussite c'est très beau et c'est bien de travailler dans un environnement calme et serein ,agréable avec toutes les merveilles que vous faites et votre coupe courte vous encore plus belle . Merci beaucoup de partager avec nous cette belle aventure même c'est un honneur pour moi merci et bravooô ❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🎨

[@PaulaScardamalia]

I love you new hair cut! And the t-shirt. Creative space is so important. I'm clearing out yarns and looms from my time as a professional weaver so I have more room for writing and watercolor. Hubby made me a table top easel from an old loom bench he made me long ago, and I love being able to have the work at an angle so I can get more perspective on it. My mother was an art teacher and watercolorist and I use her pencil/brush organizer for mine now. It's always fun seeing other creatives' work spaces. Thanks for sharing.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Paula. I hope you get your space sorted soon! I love handy husbands!

[@lisakinney3747]

What a neat video! Until I clean and organize my spare room I paint on my large dining table with drop cloths on top. All you need is a flat surface and a few containers really. But I can’t wait to create my own studio. How lovely that would be.

[@elkepaull-keller9039]

You look fabulous, healthy and happy. This is fabulous having a look at other artists work spaces.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

So kind of you to say. Thank you very much. ❤️

[@lizetteniemand7777]

Looking gorgeous

[@24starbuck]

A privilege to see your studio - thank you. My favourite of your subscribers spaces was Star’s. Organised but also personal with the lovely Japanese vases and clever use of the soap dishes.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you! You don't need a big space if you are organised.

[@fuzzydragons]

i worked on the floor with supplies under the bed for the longest time and feel special having my own desk to work on now 😀

[@tracyleehughes2463]

Of all your beautiful hair styles this one is by far an away the best !! Great video of student art spaces !! Thanks Louise :)

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Tracy! Dom likes it longer but I'm happy with it. Thank you for sharing your space! 🥰

[@mariannedanhofbekkers2671]

Men ! They love long hair but they don’t realise the trouble it usually gives. This hair style is fantastic and it suits you perfectly. That’s what matters ❤

[@kamalalove6083]

Love these studios! Thanks for sharing.

[@barbcrabb8542]

Love the new hair style.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Barb!

[@tinakirvin1097]

Wow, thank you so much for the tours of studio spaces. It gave me plenty of ideas! Everyone is so neat! My space is tiny but finally organized. I will be looking for soap dishes and palettes in thrift stores! 🖼️

[@kimjensenable]

Wow! Your hair looks good!!! I learned to paint from you. My studio is still in my dining room. I rather enjoy it though due to the fact that I have my own little art table separate from the dining table. You're still my favorite watercolor teacher after two years.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Kim! 🥰

[@vfilosi]

Great art space and very nice new hairdo.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you very much!

[@anitalota]

Love this video,in the summer I paint in my sun room, beautiful natural light. I live in northern Canada so in winter my sun room is freezing (-40) so I’m stuck painting in my dining room and have to clean up and put everything away so we can eat 😢 maybe someday I’ll have a dedicated art space

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Summer painting in the sun room sounds beautiful Anita. 🥰

[@CatWezel66]

👏👏👏I love your new haircut. It suits you so well Louise 😁💝

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you very much.

[@GKganesan]

You inspire me Louis!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I'm glad. Thank you GK.

[@bethcarroll5988]

Inspiring spaces. Thank you. And nice haircut.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Beth!

[@DottieStanley]

Excellent! So great to see everyone's work spaces! Love the T-shirt and your new hair do!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Dottie!

[@vickiestewart7394]

I have 3 things to say (I'm a bit late, so I'll repost on Patreon): 1: LOVE your hair, Louise!! So flattering :) 2) VERY glad I did not submit a video of my "studio," as it looks like Fred Sanford's house and yard compared to these examples. If you're not familiar with "Sanford and Son" from the 1970's, think of the kind of "home junkyard" your neighbors would complain to your municipal authorities about. MY so-called "studio" is a roughly 8-foot-square area where my old "office area" was when I worked at home as a court reporter, and it was disastrous then, so as a creative watercolor painting area now? Gee, I guess you could describe it best as resembling a bombed-out crater, maybe, with paint tubes, brushes, paper and Amazon boxes strewn about waiting for me to DO SOMETHING to them. It's a corner of my bedroom, essentially, and until my son graduates college next year, it will continue that way. Sigh. So let me dry up my tears and move on to my third point here: Please tell everyone who sent in their videos (special mention: Susi) that they are now the envy of everyone who watched this video! We all gathered much inspiration and truly appreciate your sharing your tips and stylish setups. When I DO have a proper studio I intend to refer back to this video for ideas. But Susi, OMG, those wood items in her studio! Those paints, the sheer number is more than my local art supply store! And did I see Hahnemuhle "Collection" paper just stacked up by the gross? ATTENTION WATERCOLOR ARTISTS: Do you know they quit making the GOOD version of that beautifully textured paper? If you have some you bought a while back and you don't know whether it's a "good" or "bad" batch, look on the back of your paper pad/block, and if the control number starts with "M2R," you got a "bad" new batch, made with their new felt supplier, which they claim made no marked difference in the paper, but which MANY of their customers agree makes the new texture completely suck. It may not make a difference to some people, but it did for me, and I cut my current pages (the new version) into swatch cards. Well, as usual, I wandered completely off the subject and forgot what video I just watched -- oh, yeah -- Louise! Great video, so sorry once again -- lol!!!!

[@joyhsieh512]

Love this video. I am thinking to organize my workspace. It is very helpful.

[@deborahbarbaccia6813]

Wow your hair looks really cute. It fits you. Ioved seeing your and everyone's painting spaces. I'm lucky to have a dedicated room to work in too. ❤❤️

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Deborah. I'm so glad you do too!

[@mollypenwhistle7918]

Love your new haircut... thanks for your hard work, love your videos 🥰

[@ab4690]

Thanks for sharing, I would have loved to see a minimalist artist's work space.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you!

[@user-xj9oo1lj1b]

Fantastic hair style! Love the video of the work spaces, they give me ideas on how I can improve my space. Thank you :)

[@Rebecca.G]

The last small space was beautiful and so functional! I loved the blue and white Japanese Porcelain containers, the light and pool noodle idea. Very well done!

[@pamelafaulkner8649]

Love all,the Art Studios.Thank You Louise!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

You are so welcome. Thank you Pamela.

[@magaliblein3527]

Hello. This is a very helpful video. Tks a lot! ❤ I am painting in the dining room, near the bigest window of the house. 😊

[@ruthiebianchi6329]

Love your new haircut Louise!

[@MariaMartinez-jb3zn]

Loving your hair Louise❣️I live in a studio apt so space is limited for sure. I am by no means so makeshift is me. I could probably use an organizer cabinet for all the mediums I am into as far as paints, embossing materials and papers. Nice to see other’s ideas for space! Thank you ladies! 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽Mia

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Maria!

[@jenwilly7260]

Oh, jeez, I really hafta step up my workspace game! I currently work on a small portion of my dining room table. I have no storage 😅

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I know what that's like! Thanks Jen.

[@user-zh1dr3yz5h]

Louise, I appreciate you showing yours and others work spaces. Wondering if you could do a tutorial on various types of artificial lighting lamps? Which are the best? Thanks for your expertise. Kind regards, Cindy

[@suzannemarieclinton1635]

Love the haircut!! It really suits you.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Suzanne!

[@barryedgington6812]

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Monica.

[@robynfraser8085]

What a helpful video. Thank you. I’ve just moved into a new house where I have a small dedicated space for my art. I’m searching for ideas on how to set it up that will work now and in the future. This is the best art studio tour video that I’ve seen so far and I’ve looked at a lot.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I'm so pleased. Thank you Robyn. I'm glad it's helpful. I hope you get your painting space set up soon.

[@willianyaminuddin5235]

Love your new hair cut.. looks so beautiful. Thanks for sharing videos on yours n your student's studios ❤

Lovely haircut 👌 and thanks for sharing soo much of your personal space. I've an office room that doubles as a studio, not ideal but 🤷‍♂️ good for now.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I'm glad you have a space to work. Thank you!

[@bfly5]

Love your haircut!!!!!!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you! 💕

[@SoulshineBnB]

Looks like your new haircut is getting more comments than the workspace. You look fabulous as does the workspace. Great to see the spaces and get ideas. I work out on my veranda so the parrots can come and keep me company. It's not ideal but I love the fresh air.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you! Sounds beautiful.

[@lindaloiselle8251]

You look fabulous! 😊 great new hair style…..loved this session….i have to find a little corner..you have given me some great ideas..thank you.

I'm glad. Thank you Linda.
