Lena Danya wat lens are u using

[@kristianhelgesen4455]

That was great paintings Lena! I would paint a larger painting of the one with the street lights, it was so many beautiful colours in it, and it was cool and different 😀 great job!💞

[@shobhavs613]

I have to say u the secret that about youtube recommening ur 2 year painting video. The program is done in such a way that, if the video is titled having money, time it will recommend to many people thinking of hard work they have done and the money they have spent on the video so having thoses things on ur title will make youtube algorithm to promote ur video and even seasonal things in title but money is the important on u can add cost of ur painting in video ( should be more) so youtube will recommend u thinking ur working for them put ur resource.All the best

[@robynne_xo]

Thanks! But I have watched all ur vids! I watch 21 a day!

[@lizziehall478]

You are so inspirational, Lena! They all look so beautiful together!

[@LenaDanya]

thank you Lizzie!

[@rolliepollie74]

The northern lights painting from several years ago was maybe the first or second video of yours I watched and it was what inspired me to start drawing and painting more and now it’s my full time job. Thankful I stumbled upon your art whenever that was, and you’re still one of my biggest inspirations❤️

[@LenaDanya]

oh wow! That's so amazing to hear, I'm so happy art worked out so well for you!❤️ :]

[@MikeesArtSpace]

31 paintings in 31 days..... that's consistency. Great work!

[@LenaDanya]

thanks! :]

[@HeliPadUSA]

I used to watch rerun comedies as I fell asleep. Nothing better than relaxing watching your channel. Love your paintings and this channel so much. My wife watches now too.

[@ArtByHazel]

Now that’s commitment! So happy for you! 💖🖼

[@samyahmh2584]

i never use the term ''artblock'' but right now i have art depression i guess.. i have been so hard on myself to improve that i made it stress me out to the point i didn't draw anything for a month now.. hope i make it through.

[@AlphaDrivers]

Last week I had the same problem... I didn't forced myself to draw, I just did the other things that inspire me, like listening to music, watching art tutorials, going for a walk... It works for me, it will work for you too 😉

[@RJPalat]

i know this is old but i hope you got better and were able to get back to drawing.

[@cynthiamarston2208]

So simply put! Hard on myself to improve! That’s IT! Well thank you for explaining a thing I wasn’t aware of in myself. I’m hard to please! Hmmmmm I wonder why? It’s a lot of work to improve. Lazy? Why do I think something therapeutic and rewarding and the main thing I have a natural talent for is WORK. As an addictive personality I’d love to become addicted to creating art! Thanks for your comment

[@brendalcotto1230]

Thank you for saying what you said about “Artist Block” often times is hidden fears of making crappy art. ❤️🌸

[@miracleabshire7053]

You inspire me to become a better artist and realize the “ugly stage” comes before the beauty of the art, thank you for uploading, i love watching your videos and learning better techniques every time.

[@johncollado1151]

Hi Lena.... Well done video explaining your experience for the month and describing everything that inspired you in your paintings. And the important thing is that you completed the entire month. Congrats.

[@DarlingSpectrum]

A painting every day is so ambitious... I'm so impressed. Amazing job! Youre such an inspiration Lena

[@LenaDanya]

thank you!

[@deepayanbose1571]

Your painting are just amazing, l love painting too thats why l am so happy to see a painter like you who paints real paintings and the paintings look like pictures, no one believes its a painting. l am amazed to see 31 paintings in 31 days, it amazing, l have a request can you draw a person enjoying rain and dancing in the rain, l hope you will do it and continue your amazing art skillls.

[@skydance8017]

I just discovered you from one of your other videos. I have nothing to say that everyone else already hasn't..., but I'll just say you're amazing, beautiful, talented, gifted, and your work is something very special. WOW! Okay, just passing through, I'll probably never cross your path again. The very best to you from Montana, USA!

[@bridgetmenham5103]

Thank you you just reminded me why I shouldn't care about going out tonight ..cause you need rest to do art and a clear head .I just turned people down to go out tonight but I'm drawing my niece for my sisters Xmas present do I don't have time to be partying xx

[@mykasiabostic9592]

it’s beautiful how you convey transparency ( like in the lime ) so well. I’m more of a watercolor gal but i’m so inspired by your lil cityscapes. it’s wonderful.

[@ashleymia991]

You are very inspiring! Painting is such a personal journey for me. I have to feel truly inspired in order to paint anything so I totally respect the fact that you pushed yourself to commit to a painting everyday. Very impressive ♡

[@AngelikaRenee]

I love the paintings you created! I agree about fear getting in the way. That had been something I have been overcoming in my life and in my art!

[@LenaDanya]

thank you! :] it's a normal thing to feel, we must overcome it!

[@soulsunshine108]

So happy to find your channel. I really resonate with the comments about artist's block. It's true, you just get caught up in fear but you have all the power to just push through it and keep creating.

[@Geotubest]

So inspiring. I love your studio, the plants.. the light. Uplifting.

[@chycammillionrednour6776]

Great material for a calendar!

[@noreenkellett3863]

Absolutely LOVED this series, LOVED each and everyone of your works. What a great accomplishment of a huge challenge ❤

[@LenaDanya]

thanks so much for taking the time to check them out :]

[@marilynsartadventures3956]

Noreen Kellett , I agree , it was a great accomplishment, these full month challenges are difficult to complete!

[@elisamilan]

You're right! Artist block is fear. That's what I've learned lately. Normally when I can't sit down to do the work it's uaully because I'm scared of failure. Thank you for this video ♡

[@Ava-ns4go]

I feel so jealous of you but its a good jealous that makes me determined to keep painting! You're beautiful and talented, how cool to find a channel so hands on, modern and community like for young artists :) love from australia x

[@dontheroof]

Well done Lena, quite a task but I’m sure you have learnt a lot by doing it. They were all very nice pieces too.

[@ARTYCOATY]

I am happy to meet your video! Today was a good day. Thank you.

[@jennkuenzler4979]

Very cool. Thank you for the inspiration! You do such beautiful work.

[@Foxriverstratergy]

I love the statement about artists block. It really is mostly based on fear. Didn't really realize it until i heard it just now. Thanks for that. It helps in a way.

[@sailajakalapala7037]

And your so talented and thanks for sharing your talent here

[@diy4homedecorandmycooking436]

Hi Lena😍Just view ur video and I liked all your paintings dear👌👌👌Thanks for Sharing dear😍😍 Keep posting and Stay connected dear🤗🤗🤗

[@baileykuhlman3527]

So glad you mentioned the breathable varnish! I'm also an oil painter (just starting a YT channel), and I was wondering how you were able to varnish so quickly. Lovely paintings & love your channel!

[@PaintingStepByStep]

I respect Inktober a lot but i loved Oiltober much more. It's difficult to see art without colors. I really loved your Oil paintings. May be next time someone should try Watertober, so i can participate :)

[@LenaDanya]

thank you so much!

[@TartantazCreates]

Painting Step By Step well as you know there is inktober, now oiltober. There is also acrylic April (which you may or maybe not have heard of) however there are 8 other months in the year. Perhaps you could pick one and set the trend for a watercolour month challenge? 😉🎨🖌

[@PaintingStepByStep]

@@TartantazCreates I like my freedom :)

[@TartantazCreates]

Painting Step By Step that’s an interesting reply. Do you mind if I ask? what is it about making your own challenge that results in you losing your freedom?

[@PaintingStepByStep]

@@TartantazCreates Oh! That is OK. I thought group of people publish it and than everyone follows like Inktober.

[@ChelseaArtunez]

You're impossibly beautiful!!! And what a fun idea!!!!! October!!!!! What an awesome thing!!😄⚘🌻🦋 thank you for the Gamvar tip! I didn't know that!

[@deborahthurber8931]

Oh, you leave in Bradenton right next to my town. How wonderful, I hope that I see you sometime at an Art Show here. I just love all that you have created particularly how you inspire and teach me.

[@lunadargent5292]

I thoroughly enjoyed this series of videos. My favorite was the lime lol. Well done. Love your talent

[@gouravkumargupta7486]

Wow... 👌All are beautiful. But I really liked that Red Rose in black.. 🖤

[@KirsiJulkuArt]

Im so thankfull to have all four seasons :D Love the paintings, you manage to make every painting so vibrant and lively

[@rabianaeem5620]

Your paintings are the images of your soul,, You are beautiful inside out..♥️

[@Beautyofcolors]

You are such an hardworking artist, thanks for creating such an awesome channel, it inspires me to create more videos, please never stop uploading awesome contents.

[@LovelyDollsAndToys]

Beautiful Boho tunic and nice new ombre. :)

[@sirikim1111]

WOW These paintings are all great!! It's made me inspiring. So I feel that sensitivity and emotionally, and Lena's appearance is beautiful too. ✨💖

[@dhmhtrhsdesign]

Lena don't need to feel alone... When you are creating so beautiful things, never you are alone…maybe its looks like that you are alone but it's not the truth. Just you are able to feel fulfill with your own self and that means that you are a powerful person and you are connected with people, animals, nature and God through the magical power of love. You love yourself a lot and you love people very much! Lena thanks for the inspiration with this amazing video, I hope you to see my comment and don't forget that you are beautiful, honest and powerful human! Have a nice day Lena!...(From Greece)

[@brandisalmon7668]

I love your videos! Have been watching for a couple years now and you have given me so many tips and insights! I finished my art degree yesterday but I am forever learning. Thank you from Australia🙏🏽

[@TheNiqabiDiaries]

I really want to do this next year. I like that you didn't use prompts. Such beautiful work 😍. I wish I'd known about this before and then I wouldn't have bothered with inktober or Mandalatober because by the end of the month I really missed painting and I've been too busy since to paint.

[@christineingram55]

What a clever idea..You did some beautiful miniature pieces of art 😀

[@jhoeyvee1]

I’m not sure why you only got 500k + subscribers, should have been 1M + . Your work is amazing

[@sammariofan]

Thank you Lena. One of my biggest inspirations of this decade

[@Deb1650]

I love the red rose you painted!

[@sandrasala4586]

Yayyy Bradenton!! I used to visit people in Parrish every Sunday when I lived in Tampa. I lived on the Howard-Franklin hahaha!! These turned out beautifully!❤❤❤

[@LenaDanya]

aw small world!

[@gracee8162]

your paintings of your home town are probably one of my favorite paintings of yours. Like you said, it Is cozy to look at and seeing something familiar in painting form brings a certain nostalgia feel to it.....thats just my opinion.

[@vanshaj5700]

Lena u r as like as 9 years ago.. ive seen all your videos.. im from india and im in 9th and i also paint and all people say that im a little picasso😁😆😆 u r inspiring for me. But u r greatest than all other 😀😄🙂🙂😊

[@smalltownpicker]

Your painting is remarkably realistic. Love it. Wish I had that talent.

[@ShefaliRanthe]

[@timbarnett3898]

Please take this most positive, we are not encouraged to praise, but I've seen Northern lights several times in NW, an your close maybe even more defined in vertical curtains! You have a great glow too!

[@shopmeganrose]

I loved this challenge so much, you’re so inspiring & talented. ♥️

[@lonnymead8976]

Your work is so amazing ... and you are so beautiful. I don’t know how to paint but have always wanted to learn , it is fascinating to see how the different colors and details make a painting look so real. I read a book on Leonardo Da Vinci and it said that in his younger year’s he was taught first to see. I believe that is the gift you and other inspirational painters have, you can see the shades of colors within the details the things you look at. Similarly my vocal teacher is teaching me to listen. Now I’m having to undo years of poor habits... Art is so fascinating!

[@jwj63645]

I so love your paintings!

[@user-iq5lv4zm9c]

Really enjoyed these paintings! I found it very inspiring! Loved your creativity with so many different types of paintings!!

Hola Danya, estoy Encantada no tengo palabras me fascinas su arte

[@kindrabaker]

What an amazing challenge! These all turned out great! Thank you for sharing your varnish brand! You are such an inspiration, keep up the beautiful art you create! xoxo

[@anjaleemadusha3789]

So beautiful paintings

[@richardbarksdale3810]

Truthfully I go to sleep when I get artists block because of much needed rest and regeneration. That works for me, also taking walks and maybe going to a cafe to just hang out and relish the beauty that is all around us going to see others art work can lift your soul into something I call spiritual gratitude. Thank you for sharing your story! Here's a piece of information that might interest you. When you clean your brushes or palette off ,use baby oil instead of all those bad chemicals like the turpentine even though they may make odorless paint thinner for brush cleaning. Remember though baby oil is not, is not a medium it's just for cleaning..

[@catalinamartinez3079]

You are such an amazing artist!!! I loved the oiltober :)

[@iqpaintingsparkles1902]

I like this oiltober very much. you inspired me in a amazing style .i hope to become a good painter like you. thanks for this amazing oiltober paintings.
