Song by World's End Girlfriend - garden in the ceiling

I don’t think it’s likely that you check random new comments on your older videos, but just in case you do, I wanted to say that I still think about this specific painting/video nearly a decade after the first time I saw it. And I still listen to Garden In The Ceiling every so often. Both the art and the song bring me a strange sense of peace and comfort. I’m very grateful 💜

[@stinana]

Same ❤

[@Artemystik]

I agree.. it was seeing this video 12 years ago that started me on recording my own watercolor speed paintings.. I had never seen one before this portrait, and I felt so drawn in to it, with the music as well.. I loved it so much that I tried playing it for my mom and my sister when they came over one day, but they are not artists and have very different taste in art. They were "disturbed" by it, lol.. but wow, 3.5 million views!! Seems like a lot of other people can appreciate it too. Thank you Agnes for sparking my own KZbin painting journey. My skills don't compare, but it's become a life love. And I still come back and watch this every now and again.. 🥰💜🎶🖌️

[@eviloatmeal98]

never been more terrified of a song but you are so talented

[@mewwew411]

I like the song

[@karlarodriguez7469]

The song is great !

[@yasmimvitoria6963]

selppin me

[@sianypopsmith1429]

Ha 😁 felt the same!

[@321Kanari123]

Watching this is like watching someone come to life. She's born right before our eyes. Beautiful.

[@user-ys6hb3sg2s]

а чего у нее проказа? чего морда вся пятнами?

[@ishasharma8733]

She makes it look so simple and easy ...... When actually ITS NOT !!!

[@ThoughtsofAnt]

With practice it gets easier

[@mysteryme6655]

Still one of my favorite speed paintings and songs throughout my art career. You introduced me to World's end girlfriend and I KNOW I wouldn't have found them without you. Thank you.

[@MrBeiragua]

listening to this song while looking at the drawing taking form. For some minutes, life seemed to make sense

[@motiemo]

Marcílio Mosco I couldn't have worded it better. :)

[@noceboil]

can you tell me name of the song please

[@shep6671]

+Hannah Baker Darude - Sandstorm

[@daemondoesnotexist]

I know right :)

[@Mary-fo2uv]

The addition of red made it loook so much better i love it.. the details, incredible

[@Dukkha]

What i love about watercolor is that you're always on the edge of screw up everything...

[@jacksonohno]

I love how she lets the paint do its thing.

[@KatieJobling]

Your KZbin videos inspire me so much! I've just started an art KZbin channel and you've given me so much more confidence to share my work with others. Thank you!

[@NatChasouwall]

I think this one is your best portrait, because it's dramatic and abstract. "Metaphor of the disintegration from a body without soul"(you inspired me to write that) and it's just so emotional and mysterious, NOT JUST DETAILS, it has a watercolour soul!

[@karalynniette8536]

I watch this video like a hundred times a year for the song and this beautiful painting. My art teacher showed me this all the way back in middle school; I’ve got a kid of my own now.

[@ClariPonce]

Agree! I found her when I was like 13 years old, keep coming back here and recently started watercolor painting just for her inspiring art ❤️

[@QWlN]

The song and video play in my mind on repeat all the time, especially when I space out and daydream. It’s wild to me that a decade has passed, because every time I come back here, it feels like it was only yesterday.

[@midnighthanyou]

You make it look so effortless!!!

[@UConceptPublishing]

I really enjoyed watching you working with watercolors. You really master it. And the music was so perfect for the type of portrait.

[@lpsstarttv]

your right!

[@fayz-dayz]

i LOVE her paintings! I never get tired of them 😊

[@sleepyret]

this might be my favorite video on youtube,, i just love how she commands the colors in this one i could stare at it for hours!!!

[@maryelkhair5011]

My favorite. A moment of torn feelings between sadness and beauty - I love it

[@napoleaomoura3107]

[@814ck5t4r]

Seen ur work on DA and was suprised to see you had videos! Awesome!! Thanks for sharing the making of your amazing creations!

[@Sabrrrina]

I am speechless when I look at your art - breathtaking.. absolutely love it.

[@samandria]

I can't stop watching this, this is by far my favourite watercolour painting ever

[@vagentnica6430]

the song is so creepy, like in the old circus

[@zeecaptainz]

Oh god! I really love the song on the background! Usually artist have crappy taste in music (no offense) or just don.t get well with the drawing. I think that.s the first art video i really liked from all points of view (i watched only 50 secs literally :3)

[@fatgeezerdave]

Just beautiful watching the process, as it is looking at the finished work.

[@Mizerilia]

I'm coming back to this video after years. You've inspired my work a lot when I started using watercolors, and I ended up listening to World's end girlfriend too so thank you for making me discover such a nice artist!

[@amandarupp3400]

To me this painting is very dark. Brilliant and dark.

[@megaltright974]

this music is freaking me the fuck out.

[@ginavillaronga]

I have this on my favs on deviantart, admired it for a couple of months now. Normally I work in oils and encaustics, but this really has me looking at watercolors in a different light. Great use of colors on all your paintings, awesome portraits, and I love your style. Thank you for sharing your art. I just wish I had a small part of your talent.

[@davemaclean1878]

Beautiful. The window to the soul is in your hands and yours are beautiful.

[@DarkBubbles12345]

the music really fits the drawing

[@lin8168]

Man, I enjoyed this video so much, but I'm sitting in the dark at about midnight right now and the music scares me to bits

[@SomaraSon]

About a year ago i watched this because I wanted to watercolor paint very badly now I have a set for myself and I've come back to this for inspiration. This is absolutely beautiful.

[@jbjj67868]

So chilling, yet beautifully done. The music choice was perfect to portray the surrealism. It gave me goose bumps and looking at this felt as though something in me was directly affected by the emotion of the woman in the painting. Absolutely stunning!

[@danielc.6158]

This is amazing. If I may ask, what were some of the different brushes you were using? I'm practicing watercolor myself, so I was wanting a little help. Thanks!

[@GirLuv11]

I would like to know too :)

[@mayurhande6159]

i would also like to know it... :)

[@kseniasnow3248]

This song is so creepy, but I love it)

[@ealhyung1]

Can't find any good words as good as your paintings!!!

[@lisarae7823]

You are an absolutely incredible artist. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. This is just so beautiful.

[@lhynalbert1998]

the song was a bit scary lol. but this is amazing :)

[@lilyindacity]

i was watching the video at midnight and the audio scared the hell outta me

[@LaMasLatinaaa]

So unique and eerie. So much talent!!!!

[@lifeasmadison]

Honestly the style of your work is just so unique and i would love to be able to make something that appears so minimalistic so complex like that. All your paintings are phenomenal.

[@StevenRogers268]

creepy music the portrait is of a girl wearing a hat that has some lace or fabric or something? The red on her head. Also the second eye you painted was super bloody looking and slightly less so at the end but whoa!

[@jaspriest1997]

I didn't see a hat, I saw a woman being shot in the head?! Red splotches are entry and exit points and the blue is skin coming away.... Morbid!

[@jondougherty1114]

It's a dead woman.... Face cold and blue... Eyes lifeless , blood coming out if the back of her head.... Sad

[@viviennebeck2549]

Which whitening pen did she used at the end ? ❤️

[@n.w.3863]

+Vivi Be. it is called white gel pen

[@Sorrowsofthemoon]

white signo!

[@luke38luke]

incredibly stunning on so many levels.

[@ImagineRealistically]

That is absolutely breathtaking!

[@pornogore09]

Someone knows the song??¡ Its amazing!!

[@souhail208]

garden in the ceiling by World's End Girlfriend

[@Enonimesh]

[@pornogore09]

Its beautifull!! But any way, we re diferent. Thanks for tell me the song! :)

[@TheEvica72]

Song by World's End Girlfriend - garden in the ceiling :)

[@daemondoesnotexist]

I love the music... So creepy. 😈💀

[@PaleyDaley]

Truly phenomenal. This is actually my favourite painting of all time, and I genuinely mean that. So amazingly creative and stunningly beautiful. It really reminds me of the Japanese movie "Belladonna of Sadness."

[@llaz83]

just plain awesome! Love the song, love the painting and love the colors!!! thank you for this

[@CybertoothXI]

I AM THRILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT TO LEARN FROM YOU! PLEASE! HOW CAN I GET CONTACT WITH YOU? PLEASE INFORM!!!

[@meyaquarius1474]

anyone know what was that white pen called? O_O

[@silvi00001]

I think, it is a white gel pen :)

[@mewwew411]

***** That's rather specific haha

[@jeffbakerdesign]

ahh I thought it was an empty pen she was usin to scrape away at some of the paint

[@1114Daisy]

Jeff Baker never, ever, try to scrape watercolor paint...

[@jeffbakerdesign]

1114Daisy never, ever ever?

[@igneousmoon]

absolutely love this artwork, it's the kind of thing that would look amazing on a book or album cover

[@giangian86]

Stunning!!!WOW!So elegant!!!

[@jana_lee]

the audio scary me D: xD

[@oliviagillig8102]

This music is creepy

[@MatTags3]

Mesmerizing. I could not stop watching. Glad you don't show the final version as your lead. Amazing talent and inspiration.

[@YousafHDar]

wow this is amazing! watching the actual process really inspires you much more than just images. BTW you background soundtrack reall was amazing haha loved the dialogues.

[@Majeztyque]

Lady gaga .. anyone??

[@AltafHussain-dz2qs]

WTF why she is playing that creepy music???

[@maryelkhair5011]

Because that's her awesome style. It's a shame I don't hear from her,I wish artists reached out to their fellow artists that have been looking for guidance.

[@callofdutyfan950]

Mary Elkhair I think sometimes its hard to explain certain concepts and techniques to other artists looking for help. A big thing I'd say is to get out of that comfort zone by experimenting more and more

[@Shadow11152]

The song is wut some ppl care about! No matter how many times i watch ur vids my mouth always drops i love ur art

[@DaniaZucchini]

the palet of colors you use is magical

[@alya97101]

sometimes i randomly open good painter to enjoy the unique music that goes along making the painting is telling a story

[@hhhhhhhhh61]

Unfreaking-believable! That is something mad crazy talent! LOVE IT!

[@Petlex12]

This fascinates me. I could watch you paint forever. I try and see what I can learn from this but ... Really just watch in wonder. Thanks so much!
