mural apprentice vlog

[@KeyDyer]

Did NOT expect to see Kiptoe in a tiny little egg video! incredible ❤ I hope to get into murals one day and your channel has been awesome

[@littletinyegg]

Unexpected collab!! Haha thank you so much! I hope you get to make the mural of your dreams!

[@lulabelle33]

The bird and fish piece is soooooo cool

[@littletinyegg]

thank you so much!!

[@meganhobza]

Thank you for sharing your process, it's very helpful. In a video of yours I watched a month or so ago, you explained how to set up an art making space with materials visible and touchable. After thinking on it for a while, when I had some time off, I got my own work space set up per your advice. I really like it now and I'm drawn to work in it every day 🙂 Appreciate you!

[@littletinyegg]

omg I love this comment!! I'm so glad it helped you!

[@AubreyFite1]

I'm very impressed that you were able to do a second layer of block print stamps on those totes while keeping everything lined up so well!

[@littletinyegg]

I was very unsure it would work out haha but I made it happen! Thanks Aubrey!

[@watermelon_dragon]

I absolutely love this vlog, I love your way of praising and talking about other artists. The murals are beautiful, especially the one with plastic earrings ❤

[@littletinyegg]

Aw thank you so much! I love that one too!!

[@kennyrote]

So glad your heron painting sold! My partner and I stared at for so long when we first saw it. Your vids def inspired me to starting making my own!

[@littletinyegg]

omg I love that so much, thanks you two

[@madeline4711]

Not me cheering when you sold the painting hahahah

[@littletinyegg]

aww that's so sweet! thank you!!!

[@Hoostyboosty]

That conversation between Taylor and you was so sweet! The knife thing made me laugh haha :p

[@CharlotteKreilkamp]

I love walking around my city and seeing the murals. I live in a major city and it Is FULL of pretty art. Im so glad now that saltlike city gets to be more populated by artwork because of you guys (a good mural can make anybody's day.) MAKE MORE ART IN THE WILD!

[@littletinyegg]

aw I love that! Thank you! MORE WILD ART !

[@fuzzydragons]

always looks like fun making murals, and i need a scissor lift in my life (lift goes up, lift goes down, lift goes up....) ❤😝

[@littletinyegg]

hahah just imagine the things you could reach!

[@artngoodfeelings]

I love hearing these lil check-ins on your life. This sounds like a super fun and dreamy experience!

[@littletinyegg]

Aww thank you Meg!!

[@dizzellen]

Great video! I'm glad you got to do this. A lot of my friends do murals and I'm always in awe on how they do it, especially on taller buildings. If you haven't tried it already, dish soap helps get spray paint off! My husband used to keep it in the shower when he used it a lot lol.

[@littletinyegg]

It’s such an impressive feat! Thank you! I swear I tried that but maybe I didn’t scrub hard enough haha

[@dizzellen]

@@littletinyegg Ohhh I was telling him about it and apparently I got it wrong... The dishsoap was for motor oil. He said try cooking oil like olive oil or baby oil! My bad!

[@alexblaisart]

You are so cool. It was super cool watching you do something that took you out of your comfort zone a bit.

[@littletinyegg]

aw thank you so much!

[@Maddie.d326]

So fun to see you stamp the bags! I literally just finished a linocut printing project in art class, so it was fun to see someone doing the same thing. I printed on paper only, so printing on other stuff is intriguing! 🥰

[@littletinyegg]

aw yay! I love lino, I wish i had more time to make more of it! You can print on so many different things!

[@Maddie.d326]

@@littletinyegg true that!

[@aboveboard4914]

I've been painting graffiti/murals for years but I've never really filmed any of it. Hoping to do more filming in the future. It made me smile when I saw how tired you were afterwards because it is exhausting!! It's so physical compared to painting on a small scale. It's a full body workout! Love your channel and work 😊❤

[@littletinyegg]

Haha I seriously underestimated how hard it was going to be! So much climbing and moving stuff and crouching and stretching all outside in the sun! Thank you so much!

[@SpottedJournal]

This was such a great insight, what a cool and dreamy experience to have murals and selling at markets!

[@littletinyegg]

It really was quite dreamy! Exhausting but fun, thank you!!

[@liannejohnson5491]

this was great...loved seeing the mural process and how it went for you. I appreciate you sharing it all. :) We have a mural fest where I live too (very art-centric town) and I find it so fascinating how these folks go from concept to finished piece...it's pretty amazing!

[@littletinyegg]

It’s so impressive! Thank you so much for watching!

[@dezs-diary]

So cool to see this process! And congrats on selling an original! That’s amazing, you’re incredible ❤

[@littletinyegg]

thank you so much Dez!

[@AndreaAlexander]

This seems like it was such a wonderful experience! 🥰

[@littletinyegg]

it really was, thank you!!

[@da-quan]

Yes ma’am! I love all of what you made and shown in the vid.

[@littletinyegg]

thank you!!

[@mattieleerootandpine]

What an amazing experience! I've wanted to get into muraling. There are a few places in my town - like under an overpass on a bike trail - that I think would really benefit from a mural and I've thought about putting together a proposal for the city just to see. Congrats on the original Sale! that's huge!

[@littletinyegg]

Now that I know more about murals and how they get applied, I've been taking so many photos of random buildings and blank walls around town that I think need a mural haha. You should make a mock up just for fun and send it out! I feel like once people see the art they can't say no! Thanks Mattie!!

[@ChantelleArts]

this is so cool! I've never heard of a mural fest before, not sure it's a thing in the uk 🤔

[@whitneymason406]

This was so cool to see, I love watching your videos! Hope your summer is off to a great start! 💞

[@littletinyegg]

Thanks Whitney!! Same to you!!

[@imposterchild5688]

aww Im watching your older vids bc I love your content sm, this was so cute!! love watching you navigate through new experiences and success, makes me optimistic about my upcoming gigs. id love to see more digital drawing content if you're up for sharing. greetings 🐣🏵🏵

[@newflanged_]

You’re doing a lot of cool stuff in 2023!!! I’m glad for you! I’d love to try making art in the wild :)

[@littletinyegg]

Thanks Benjamin!! There’s a lot of wild wild art out there to be made!

[@newflanged_]

@@littletinyegg agree! that's why we can't stop making and sharing!

[@letmehaunt]

so cool to see some of the mural making process and congrats on your market success!! it really is a different thing entirely to meet people in person who enjoy your art. so special :-)

[@littletinyegg]

yay! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@Lilialark]

I LOVE your videos and your art. I am wondering how you paint gouache on canvas? I thought it couldn’t be done bc the gouache would crack

[@littletinyegg]

thank you!! Its acrylic gouache so its more like acrylic paint and won't crack!

[@KimiPetri]

I love Rubblebucket tooooooo 😊 Been wondering what it takes to be a mural artist and how to transition to that type of work. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@littletinyegg]

Aren’t they great?? Thank you!

[@alphonzosolorzano5011]

Pretty brave of you to have hand stamped those Indigo dyed totes. So much work went into them already.

[@littletinyegg]

Haha yeah I was a little bit nervous for sure!! A labor of love

[@Lilstarnerd]

omg NOOOTHING is more embarrassing than pulling out all your camera equipment LMAOOO

[@littletinyegg]

setting up a TRIPOD in PUBLIC??? kill me

[@wiebkewollenberg5752]

🐣💪

[@darcyvanpelt8131]

You are an artist AND a youtuber! Go you! Love your videos. What does it mean that I love seeing peoples cats in videos but I don't have one because I'm allergic? I think I'm a cat person wanna ge. Don't tell my dogs! And I love the new "do"!

[@littletinyegg]

aw thank you so much! haha I would be so sad if I was allergic to cats. but I love dogs too!

[@afos32]

Is your website down

[@littletinyegg]

it’s currently under construction! Making some changes :-)

[@allsixxes]

reallyyy dislike artists commenting on other artist’s work by saying things like “it’s not even good” etc. it’s both elitist and untrue. something can be good without being technical, tastes are subjective, and all art is valuable.

[@littletinyegg]

Did that happen in this video??

[@allsixxes]

around 9:03 kiptoe says “idk i see a lot of stuff on youtube where it’s like, i kinda feel like they’re just a content creator, and the art’s really not.. it’s not that good, you know?” essentially stripping whoever he’s talking about of their artist title because he personally doesn’t think the art is good (because he doesn’t like it)
