Love your grey lipstick ❤ enjoy the video and watch to the end. Anyway, my fav.meal of the day is lunch 😂

[@katiebechtel9320]

Do you have a link to those brushes? I've been looking for some good fine detail ones. That print is adorable!

My favorite meal of the day is def breakfast and it is my favorite pin of that collection as well :) Your work is always so inspiring to look at, and you're making me want to try gouache as well lol!

[@artistamandamillar]

Love the video! I enjoy learning about gouache, as it's a medium I've barely dabbled with. I too tend to "overwork" pieces and end up not liking them a lot of the time. "Keep it simple" is a normal mantra so I don't go crazy overboard and spend weeks finishing some idea that could have taken a few days 😆 I'm a baked goods fan, pastries, desserts, all the breakfasts and BACON! 😍

Hope ECCC goes super well!! Wish I could make it!

😁 There's no such thing as "a surplus of stuffed animals."

Loved the segment on designing the pins and generating the files, I find stuff like that so fascinating (even if my brain only processed like half of those words 🫡) They look so freakin cute too

Cool you live in Canada, me too. Which province?

[@dayinthesky7480]

What supplier do you work with or would recommend, curious especially being a fellow Canadian interested in making pins

[@ArtbyTuna]

The best way to find a supplier is browsing alibaba.com for “enamel pins”, or search “enamel pin factory/manufacturer” on instagram. You will find tons of great options! They are always in China. Try sending some queries for price quotes, including info like size, number of colours, shipping, etc. See how that goes, and choose one from there! Do some research into design techniques, what to expect from your order/manufacturing experience, stuff like that, and the process will be more comfortable!!

Definitely lunch, because you can eat anything from cereals to pizza without being frowned upon (not that that would stop me 🤭)

[@ArtbyTuna]

so true!!! at lunch ANYTHING goes!!!

[@anbu1325]

Dessert is my favourite! The slippers were worth it! Love them! What was that bat-cloth for on the table while you were painting?

[@ArtbyTuna]

That’s a little crocheted dish scrubbie my friend made! I use it to blot overwetted brushes, and wipe it after cleaning!!

[@TonyTylerDraws]

This was super helpful; I’m hoping to venture into preordered merch rather an just rely on print on demand

[@ArtbyTuna]

It’s a scary plunge to take but gotta spend money to make money haha!! And sending out ones own packages is really fun :)

[@jeannettesalazar6442]

Love your girls. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@madammuffin6737]

Such a fun vlog, full of cat and cute drawings, love it 😊

[@Esziepants]

Breakfast and dinner are tied for me. I can’t wait to see the finished pins, I’m sure they’ll be amazing!

[@ArtbyTuna]

Thank you Eszie!! Ahh I will be sure to film a grand unboxing, I can hardly wait!
