“Fudge with Martin” episode 1…. Fantastic!🎉 Make it a series please. You can call it “sweets with my sweetie”….Thx for another fun vlog🌺

[@monkeymintaka]

That's a cute name Susan!

[@Andyapolis]

I second this! :D

[@Andyapolis]

You look so happy that Martin finally agreed to be in the vlog. :D Excited to see what you do for the 100 days!

[@monkeymintaka]

Yeah, I was surprised! I think he just really wanted fudge though 🤣

[@anne-marieolivier8318]

“You won’t know if I do it anyway” 😂 Oooh, a whole box 🎁 Looking forward to seeing the 100 days 💪🏻

[@EmmaCarpenterIllustration]

The clip of you and Martin trying fudge was so sweet 😄 good luck with your 100 day project and all your courses!! You’re going to be a busy bee 🐝😅

[@monkeymintaka]

That's Emma! I will be busy, but I'm just switching out my focus, so hopefully it's doable :)

[@pelocat]

ah this will always be one of my favorite videos of yours! I love illustrations of everyday objects and your style is so fun and beautiful!

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Joy! I don't remember what happened in this one so maybe I will watch it myself :)

[@mymanyinterests]

The spider photos was really cool, also seeing you water your plants reminded me to water mine, I've been a terrible plant mom so far. I love seeing your art challenge/exercises, makes me want to draw! Anyway, as usual I really enjoyed the video!

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Tatyana 😊 I have gotten better at watering the prayer plants as I notice they really suffer without water. I'm still not very good with the Janet plants. I think they are Janet Dracaena, and I can't seem to get it right with them 😭 glad you enjoyed the video 😁

[@Xethira]

the stuff at 8:15 is springfill / crinkle paper! I don't know if it goes by the same name in the UK though, but I know Uline sells boxes of them in basically every colour, including yellow!

[@monkeymintaka]

Cool! Thanks :) I think yellow would be really nice

[@ItsLizV]

yay I did it, I caught up with all your vlogs whoo! Now, on to the patreon videos :D

[@monkeymintaka]

Congratulations 👏👏👏

[@KatieCannonDesigns]

Really enjoyed your sketches and love how the marker page turned out. I have the same feeling about markers. But I love the look.

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Katie! I actually bought some more markers 🙈 maybe I just need to find the ones for me 🤔

[@LucyLocksArt]

I really love watching your vlogs whilst I work. so inspiring! :) my mum lives in clapham near the lakes and its so beautiful there. You will feel so inspired

[@monkeymintaka]

That makes me so happy to hear Lucy :) Glad to keep you company! Yes, nature is so inspiring to me 😊

[@fuzzydragons]

love the hair colour 😀 yep getting cold here boo its the lloyds bank horse! beautiful black stallion yeah some movies now are def way too long!

[@monkeymintaka]

Yes! You win the bank card quiz 🤣 ahh...it was 10c tonight and I had to wear a hoody on our walk so it's progress!

[@BeckieArt]

Ok I’m very late watching this 1 but I wanted to say seeing you crack on with challenges and courses is super motivating!

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Beckie! I'm glad to hear that 😊 I am still going with 100 day project, but doing courses at the same time is proving challenging 😬

[@BeckieArt]

@@monkeymintaka yeah that's a lot alongside a full time job! I've been doing more arty stuff after a bit of a block recently. Finally figuring out how to balance some things 🤣

[@Rubi_in_paradise]

I loved Fudge with Martin! That was so cute. I can't stand hot weather! Lol I am so looking forward to fall which is in 2 days. Woot! I want to do a 100 day challenge but it would be cool if there were gouache pens. 🤔 great video! 🙃🙃

[@monkeymintaka]

Yay fall! It's getting colder here slowly now which is nice. Gouache pens would be amazing! I know you can get paint pens but I'm not sure what paint is in them 🤔

[@pinandinko1970]

I did buy the floof! I got it on Amazon and they have lots of colours, I love it cause I don't have to wrap pins up other than in glassine, I can just put the crinkled paper in and the pins with thank you note etc and it's done. Also it stops anything moving inside and keeps it all safe :) I will send you a link to it but search zig zag shredded paper on amazon to see. :)

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Rozie!

[@7808]

Your hair color looks great 👍

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks 😊

[@ALLJArt]

Hi it is Amanda from the future I am so behind but better late than never I just want to say, that purple hair really suits you!

[@monkeymintaka]

Thanks Amanda :)

Would love to hear if you have any recommendations of book you liked from the challenge.

[@monkeymintaka]

I have enjoyed a lot of books this year! Some of my favourites are: Mr. Mercedes trilogy by Stephen king. The seven deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. Meat Market by Juno Davis. Ketchup Clouds by Annabel Pitcher and Goodbye Perfect by Sara Barnard. Have you read any good books? I always love a recommendation!
