Buying silly little things with your “adult money” because you can is truly one of the greatest joys in life

[@littletinyegg]

Literally ! ! !

[@happyleanbean]

I know I need to get on with my day, but all I want to do is watch your videos and watercolor in my sketchbook. I tried watching other youtubers' videos to diversify but they just aren't little tiny egg (and that isn't their fault.) Thanks for this wonderful little corner of the internet 🥰🍵

[@nichegosebe]

I'm binge-watching all your videos from the start, and this one really cracked me up, it feels like you had so much fun with the editing here! I love your paintings! The subject matter, style, and color choices are so inspiring to me. Thank you for sharing your work and your process!

[@littletinyegg]

Haha thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed 🥰

[@hannahpickert9061]

The iMovie sound effects made my day lmao. And it's super inspiring seeing you challenge yourself and talk about how making goals for yourself can create a different kind of expectation and the thoughts along w that

[@littletinyegg]

Hahah thank you Hannah they were fun 💥

[@CharlotteKreilkamp]

Totally agree!

[@fionnajames422]

Thank you for sharing about your struggles with meeting expectations while being chronically ill. I also have a chronic illness and I am working on not being so hard on myself if I don’t meet my own expectations because it can be so easy to fall into comparing myself to other artists or feeling like I’m behind. Watching your videos makes me feel inspired to go paint!

[@littletinyegg]

It can be so hard to not compare yourself to others and when your abilities are limited in any way it feels extra hard so I get that! I’m so glad you’re feeling inspired that’s my whole goal! Thank you so much!

[@floatwiththesticks]

Fellow chronic illness creative here!! I’ve only just started having enough energy to make art again but have already overdone it and am burned out 😵‍💫 The comparison thing is something I reaaaallly struggle with. We’ve got this! P.S I’m starting to make videos about this subject too 💙

[@CodeAubrey]

New here 👋🏻 i'm loving your content, art, energy, & style! I feel like i've learned a lot from watching your videos-- i can feel the positive impact they're having on my creative process as well as my outlook in general! Congrats on getting monetized and thank you for all your hard work in sharing your process like this 🩷☺️

[@littletinyegg]

Thank you!!

[@barbthemonstera]

I just found your newer vlogs recently and love them! So im watching all the vlogs from oldest to newest :D Thanks for making these you are very inspiring and love your art!

[@littletinyegg]

Aw I'm glad you like them!!

[@dezs-diary]

Oooh I’ve been tempted to get a little Stillman & Birn sketchbook once I finish my pocket sketchbook! You’ve convinced me 🤭 Also, adore your videos ♥️

[@dezs-diary]

Also congrats on getting monetized! So excited for you

[@littletinyegg]

Thanks Dez!! You totally should, I love mine and use it all the time now! And thank youuu!!!

[@ArtGardenOracle]

I struggle so much w meeting my own expectations (and I have adhd so there's an extra subconscious or whatever pleasure in blowing past the deadline and/or waaay overestimating what I can do). Coupled w having chronic illness too it sucks. From an outside perspective I am amazed at how much you do monthly!! You are making great things in diverse ways and places and making space for fun. I know the head torture of self analyzing...but I'm seriously impressed;)

[@littletinyegg]

Thank you so much! I’m not diagnosed but seriously suspect there’s some ADHD or some neuro divergence goin on up there so I feeeel the blowing past deadlines and overestimating by an insane amount hahah. I’m glad it at least appears I have it together somewhat :-)

[@intergalacticpeachpatrol]

love this! i'm still learning how to gauge what i'm capable of achieving in a given time period. it makes me feel so low when i get it wrong and i don't meet my expectations too. hugs! xoxo

[@littletinyegg]

Thank you my peachy friend 🥰

[@whitneymason406]

Love the new desk! Congratulations on being monetized! ❤️🥳👏

[@littletinyegg]

Thanks Whitney!!

[@taylorceladon]

I just visited Jackson Hole a few weeks ago and went to the National Wildlife Museum! It was beautiful, exciting some of your art is going to be sold there!

[@littletinyegg]

Oh that’s so cool!! I’ve never been to the museum but Jackson is so beautiful! Thank you!

[@Ripebanananan]

I don’t usually comment on videos but I wanted to say Hi Kristen and that I love your content!!!!! It’s equally calming and inspirational to what your videos, 💜💜💜

[@littletinyegg]

Ah thank you for taking the time to comment! Hi and I’m so glad you enjoyed!!

[@unintentionalminimalist]

Hi, congrats on getting monetized, I'm new to your content but love it ❤

[@littletinyegg]

Ah welcome and thank you!

[@fionasimagination]

"Hi" I have indeed watched all of your videos and enjoyed them a lot. However I can't follow your advice to go outside. I am bedridden and stuck in a tiny flat without any nature around. It's bin that way for 12 years😪 I miss the outside 💔 I'm glad that desk is helping you so much! The paintings look great🎉❤

[@littletinyegg]

Thank you for this comment! Frick that sucks, I’ve been very bound to bed for long periods but man, hope you can let some outside in through the good ol internet. Thank you ❤️❤️

[@CharlotteKreilkamp]

I have been directed to make a comment, so I will. I think the larger painting is turning out really well, at least at the point of filming this video. I have been binging your videos and creating along with them, and I think that you're drive to do the big painting, even if it didn't get finished on deadline, spreads through the screen.

[@littletinyegg]

Aw thank you so much! I appreciate your comment and hope you’re enjoying your binge/art making sesh!!

[@rosestroup7148]

Love your vids. Love your art. Frogs are amphibians 🐸

[@littletinyegg]

Thank you so much for this valuable info 🐍🐊

[@anapaulaotero-illustration875]

Very nice art!!! I love it!

[@littletinyegg]

thank you so much!!

[@toeresa]

i bought the big chinese white and regretted it so bad! so much thinner than the titanium. have you had the same problem?

[@littletinyegg]

Yes!! Lol it sucked I just used it to tint colors and got titanium as soon as I could

[@Керкури-н8л]

I'm the new one) My name is Lena and i'm an artist from Russia:) Wanna say i found your videos very inspiring, thank you for doing your content😻

[@SamTalbotStudent]

👋

[@AliceDel]

why paint big if it causes stress? your smaller, illustrative paintings are so utterly charming. or maybe something halfway, like a canvas that's not SO large...? anyway, i've watched all your videos so i guess i'm just here to say hi. :)

[@littletinyegg]

So true! Something about trying to be a “real artist” who paints big?? which is something I’m tangling with lol. Thank you so much Alice!!

[@SublimeStim]

HI :)
