Dear You, everything you do and say about your process, is that of an artist. You are an Artist. Most of us carry around thoughts or being an imposter. Hard to believe that life can be this fun and creative - it is. I’m an old person now, and I love your approach to your home and your art. It’s full of thoughtfulness and care and not overly precious. Keep creating. 🎉

[@REISSUED]

Hi Leslee! This comment made my day 🥹 Especially what you said about life being fun and creative - it can be so easy to fall into a headspace where anything that feels joyful or comes easily is discarded to focus on the things that come with struggle or intense effort. It’s taken me awhile to realize that the things we toil away for are no more valuable than the beautiful moments that life hands us. I’m happy to able to incorporate that into my artwork. Thank you so much for watching and sharing your insight ❤️❤️❤️

[@SteveL2012]

@@REISSUED I agree with Leslee 100%. Art creation has little to do with a formal education. Yes, knowing art history and having reference to great artists provides a platform and launching point for creating something new, and technique is often essential to composition even in abstract work. These works are absolutely beautiful.

[@colleencolquhoun8818]

How excellent and cool, and brave these pieces are! I’m just like that, trying not to be inspired by something and cheat!! Haha like I have to re invent the wheel! Also, I work on 30 things at one time so I don’t freak myself out when things don’t go my way This was great. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@erflingnot]

I loved the idea you presented about things not being overly precious ;-) thank you Once it is done, you look for the next moment to create… Thank you

[@Behappy62]

Know what you mean I love creating art but feel like it never quite cuts the mark

[@NeurospicyJenn]

You create art just like I do! From thrift store finds and mixed media to letting fate and intuition be our guide! I have adult ADHD, anxiety and depression. Getting back to creating has helped me tremendously! I have been dealing with imposter syndrome and your video has made me feel so much better. Thank you for sharing your process! Love your work!!

[@katiebailey1811]

Absolutely loved this! So inspiring! The only thing that didn't gel with me was covering over their eyes with a splash of white paint. They seemed so much more charming when you could see their eyes, especially the portrait of the woman.

[@Larems879]

I agree. Such beautiful work. In my opinion the white splash adds interest, but also takes away the life and energy in the images. I’d buy them anyway though 😊

[@michaelsnider2484]

I completely agree. I felt very involved as both the pieces were developing, but as soon as the splotches went over the eyes, I felt immediately dissociated, almost pushed put of them. It was very disconcerting. Is that what you were trying to achieve?What was the motivation for doing that?

[@eavanmages9961]

Agree. Loved them until the eyes were covered

I am so glad I found you. I relate to your life journey so much. I was a dancer in my youth, designed clothing in Los Angeles for thirty plus years, retired, moved opened a store, sold that, did display for Anthropology for six years, and I still feel like an imposter in my artistic goals. Your work and home are fresh , on point, inspiring . Bravo ! Can’t wait to see what you decide to share with us next.

[@REISSUED]

Hey Laurie!I appreciate you taking the time to watch and share your story! I often find that the artists that do everything are the people that make the most unique and inspiring work. But it can be hard to see it that way when comparing to the artists that go all in on one specific thing. I’m sure your range of experience shines through beautifully in the things you create. Glad to have you here ❤️

[@stephaniemacomber3850]

@lauriewarner4848, love your comment and am so interested in the window design work you spoke of! I have always secretly wanted that job! I have a job I love, working in the film industry as a Scenic Artist primarily on-set as a Camera Scenic, and I have been doing this for over 30 years…Not sure why I shared all that. I really just wanted to say hi! and You’re Cool. Hope your day is good👋

These photos reminded me of the ancestral pictures I have from my family history. My Norwegian grandfather was strikingly handsome, so you’ve got my creative juices flowing. So many ideas, and so little time.

[@lisathomas1622]

Your work is terrific! You don’t have to air quote being a legitimate artist. That’s just a belief system. Being self taught means you’re truly pursuing a passion and the first person practicing anything was not trained in a school…and they were legit! Art grows from artists viewing and experiencing art… and people will borrow from you. Totally normal. I just watched a Van Cleef & Arpels video and both the people working on setting rubies into rails, jewels that are precious and took years to assemble the same shades that will sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, many millions, and they are self taught. In fact many of the VC&A lapidaries are self taught, or taught in house. Sooo.. you’re legit! Rock on! I love your ‘stache. I was very disappointed when Tim Tracker shaved his, so I’m grateful I get to admire yours.

[@ArtyGal]

Dear Artist! You are a professional artist because you have sold a piece of art not to mention you have sold several pieces of art. I think that you are marvelous and I love your style and your art. I am also an artist and you have inspired me to try this technique on a photo of my mom and dad on their wedding day. My mother is dying and I feel like this approach to creating a piece of art will work beautifully to celebrate my mom and dad. I hope to finish it in time for her to see it. Truly you have captured what all artists fear and summarized this in a lovely and kind way to say You are not alone, I feel like an imposter too. Thank you again for a wonderful inspiration and I wish you great success in all your endeavors ❤

Aw thank you so much for your thoughts! Your piece is going to be beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jelsner5077]

OMG, your dog is too cute. I had to put my Old Girl to sleep last week so I've been pretty down. 🐕Your artwork turned out great! I did a similar thing years ago when a friend begged me to show at an art crawl she was currating (one of the artists backed out). Reluctantly, I agreed and then had to come up with something to show. So I bought old baroque style frames from vintage stores, gessoed them and made "art" by scribbling on newsprint paper (it was the cheapest). I first crumpled the paper, then ironed it flat to give it some character. I used pencil and charcoal for the scribbles and couldn't afford fixative, so I used my roommate's Aquanet hairspray!I worked in a frame shop at the time, so I was at least able to make nice mats for everything. My "work" looked great together and I sold almost every last piece! The other artists were kind of pissed. I guess I shouldn't have mentioned that I made everything in a week. 😮

[@REISSUED]

Haha omg this story is amazing! Yeah I often find myself creating at the last minute with whatever I have on hand. But it is the vision to see the potential in the materials and the eye to put everything together that really counts! I’m so sorry to hear about your dog passing. I’m sure she brought you so much joy 😊

FATE led me to this video the day after I bought a picture in a charity thrift shop. I got it just for the frame, and was going to toss the “art”, which happened to be a very dingy needlepoint. Inspired by you, I’m going to see about creating something on top of the needlepoint, capitalizing on the texture. Thank for sharing your creative thinking. I, too, believe in the importance of fate in bringing you materials and ideas.

[@REISSUED]

Omg I love this idea! Utilizing the texture could be very cool!

[@tessabellstar]

Thank you for sharing. I’m also an “artist”. I never thought of myself as one before but now that I’m retired, it’s all I want to do and I’m loving my artwork. I loved your artwork! Congrats!

[@Jim-rh2nh]

The best art professor I had once taught me that we're all born with 50,000 bad drawings and paintings engrained, so we spend our lives trying to get past them to create the good stuff. I think thats the 'uncomfortableness' you mentioned while working through the process, and its ok to take a break from a piece when it feels pressured and come back again when it feels right.

[@Mel_leit]

Art is simply a pleasing arrangement of shapes and colours and that basically sums it up. We all have different ideas of what ''real art'' should look like, and people are often too quick too dismiss a fantastic piece of art just because it doesn't fit their ideal concept of what that should be. I love your artworks, you think outside the box, and I think that's what makes your pieces so unique, VERY ARTISTIC and beautiful. 🖼🖌

[@jennifergraham3752]

I think that it is easy to get caught up and overwhelmed by the options when starting a new piece or a project. It was a revelation to me when I had an instructor who said “turn off your voice of judgement” during the initial part of the creative process. It is very freeing (and takes a lot of practice). Then you go back after with a more critical eye. Your work is amazing. You should not feel imposter syndrome when you call yourself an artist. You are incredibly talented.

[@danae1326]

Beautiful work, I love how you left pieces of the patterns and paper to overlap onto the frame. Most who are true artists have such a difficult time saying the words "I'm an artist." But allow yourself to say it and believe it.

[@KerriGilpin]

Such good advice. Sometimes with art, it’s difficult to lay down “rules” or even steps, but here you explained it through your secrets so well. At first, my favorite tip was “Don’t force it,” because damn, yes. But the idea that there’s a point (possibly more than one point) that you’ll hate it very much and feel like you ruined it, which leads back to Don’t force it! The idea to trust the process and keep going is difficult to accept. Allowing plans to change, interpreting the way all the parts fit, and so often the materials can take you in a whole new direction. That’s when art gets really fun and active! Thanks again!

[@feygilo8601]

Thank you for sharing this! I have never heard of the Rasterbator. I do love decoupage. If you ever have a project you want to keep from absorbing so much liquid and rippling, try painting shellac onto the paper first. Once it’s dry, the shellac will keep the paper from absorbing the moisture from your mod podge. It will sit flat without bubbling. Remember, Vincent van Gogh? He only ever sold a couple of pieces to his brother. Having a paying audience doesn’t make you an artist. . “ if you work with your hands, you are a laborer. If you work with your hands and your head, you are a craftsman. If you work with your hands, your head and your heart, you are an artist” -Saint Francis of Assisi.
