Realistic art studio tour (aka I didn't clean it before and also it's my living room)

Anyone else hate that their art studio never looks as aesthetic or as organized as the beautifully shot studio tours you see on KZbin? Yeah, me too. So here's mine, only it's my living room, and I didn't clean it beforehand.
Let's reinvent the genre and start a trend of posting realistic art studio tours, shall we? Bc I know y'alls art workspaces don't look like they're straight out of a magazine 24/7, c'mon now
So, yeah! This is my realistic art studio tour for this workspace. My boyfriend and I moved into this NYC apartment in August, so almost six months ago now. My workspace is a wall of our living room where I've devoted probably 90% of my decorating energy. It's a pretty straightforward set up-- an ikea countertop, two Alex drawer units, a trestle leg, and a chair that I spent wayyy too much money on because I'm tired of having more back pain than my 90 year old great grandmother.

It's a clean studio. I recently moved all my supplies to my desk so I don't have to get up to grab anything. It's so nice. I have started to label all my storage, and my brain just won't keep track anymore without them. All my stuff is sourced from thrift stores or from family.

[@Franziii96x]

I have cats as well and I was not sure if I could start oil painting when they in the same flat, because of the drying process. It's great to see that there is no problem even if I would paint in the same room! That gives me courage to try it for myself:3 Thank you!!

[@cherijackson6727]

Thank you for sharing a real studio! I scrolled right past all the white, minimalist videos. Yours is wonderful and definitely more my vibe. :D

[@soggysalami3240]

Your studio looks so pretty! I feel so inspired to make my studio look as good as yours

[@NQQ613]

I don't have a online shop but I hoard packaging and cardboard boxes for when I next move (I don't move often) but there are some boxes you get from deliveries that are so good quality compared to buying ACTUAL moving boxes! (they are expensive and thin!) Lol But in regards to the rest of the video😆 love your work space! I want my own art space at some point. I am working at home most of the time and only have space for a work desk, which is always a mess! Your "mess" is honestly my tidy! I also love all the plants and natural feeling of your space, very calming! 🥰

[@ModBloomArt]

Love your studio tour that is so authentic and not staged! I am inspired to get some more plants and possibly a cat

[@amoraslucha]

my art studio is also my living room that i share with my fellow-artist/musician partner! :) we're all doing the best we can

[@KelseyRodriguez]

Absolutely! Doing whatever we’ve gotta do. Thanks for watching 💕

"...I know where everything is, I know what all of it is…” - this spoke to me spiritually

[@christopherburnett1745]

Congratulations on reaching 100K!! That's amazing! I'll bet you'll pass 150K by the end of the year!

[@naomimccowen2720]

The wooden bamboo desk organizers are a life saver for me in an apartment where I don't want them out out of reach. My desk is a bit wide. Best artists gift my sister has given me besides a metal easel.

[@ashleyruth_artadventures]

Best art studio tour I've ever seen, haha. :) It's so cozy, and way more my style of organising!

[@devanshisrivastava1143]

Ahh your art studio is the definition of prosperity for me I felt so good :D

[@Parshwikaarts]

That's super cool I also have a similar junked drawers in my room where I make art so I can really relate to it but I feel plants make it more peace and more beautiful 😍

[@KelseyRodriguez]

oh absolutely! plants definitely make the space come together and feel homey

[@Sophie-ts2wq]

Your studio makes me feel happy :)

[@fork1127]

your studio is gorgeous i would love working in this space

[@ellengiannikos]

Omg, you are so much fun! Beautiful art, I love your mushrooms! :D

[@KelseyRodriguez]

Aww, thank you Ellen! I've had one of your videos in my Watch Later tab for agggeeess, thanks for reminding me of it hehe, I'll go and watch it!

[@m0yasi]

9:48 "hoarding packaging" I IMMEDIATELY LOOKED OVER AT MY BOX FULL OF PACKAGING SUPPLIES THAT I HOARD HAHA...

[@BlancaVarguesArt]

Amazing studio, nice video!!😍😍

[@silverquibal1270]

Im inspired now to make my room beautiful as yours

[@aronhelios1734]

Thanks for this realistic studio tour, it's very relatable ❤ esp the part where u like to hoard mediums: I have the same thing but for white gel pens 😅

[@cristinavidalart8460]

Loving the vibess 😍😍 and the honesty lol we all have one or more junk drawers 🙌🏻

[@KelseyRodriguez]

the sinking realization I had when I kept opening drawers and being like "....and another junk drawer!"

[@nystromfam636]

"she's lookin a little bit sad, but mostly okay." I relate.

[@Leewheeee]

I love the lighting in your studiooo

[@KelseyRodriguez]

this video was 100% sponsored by the sun and my south-facing windows lmao

[@Leewheeee]

@@KelseyRodriguez LOL

[@Christina24life]

New York? Wow you must be doing quite well. Beautiful studio

[@oh.journals]

Hello from another fan of Leigh! I have the artist frog on my computer too. I just discovered your channel, you're amazing, girl!

[@KelseyRodriguez]

Leigh's the best!! I love her stuff. I saw on her Patreon that she's redesigning the "I am artist" sticker and I can't WAIT for the new version!! welcome the community btw

[@minicloud]

Awww this was an amazing video absolutely 🌼 just explored your channel and it's soooo goooddd 💗 new subbie here to support you always 🥺

[@KelseyRodriguez]

[@unnamed6556]

Beautiful space! What kind of lamp is it?

[@j.rosloniec9419]

Love it!! Btw where did u get the lamp which is on the desk?

[@KelseyRodriguez]

It’s the Canvas lamp! You can find it at shopcanvas.co

[@alchemyandcraftarts]

Hoarding packaging! 🤣🤣 I'm so guilty of this

[@eg-g]

most useful "studio" visit ever.

[@SophiaMitropoulos]

Lmaooo this title is everything

[@natalieroy2977]

I'm from the Twin Cities! What thrift store did you go to?

[@emblarovardotter]

A little bit sad but mostly ok: a mood

[@fuzzydragons]

yep everyone has one of those random stuff drawer and are a liar if they say they dont lol can never have too much white paint!

[@KelseyRodriguez]

yessssss white paint is the best!! I dread the idea of running out, plus each white is a little bit different and it's worth it to try them out and see how they affect your color mixes!

[@bayleeborwig6852]

that’s actually a green heart-leaf philodendron (personally I like philodendrons more than pothos)

[@jessicathayer3151]

what is the star wars painting over your desk with rey?

[@KelseyRodriguez]

It's a reylo piece by Audrey Estok!

[@veelut]

thanks for the transparency. kept skipping over videos of home studios that were just too neat??? like, it was staged??? idk, but i really appreciate it.

[@felicity4841]

aha i appreciate you didn't clean, i can smell the turpentine

[@KelseyRodriguez]

I actually use an orange based solvent so the apartment always smells vaguely citrusy hehe 🍊✨

[@ReggieTime]

Hi dear I have a question I see your drawers (they look like a chest of drawers l have. BUT MY MYSTERY IS why oh why do my drawers have no sides...each drawer pulls out perfectly, but it was made without a left side or a right sides Everything i put in it rolls out If u can help thanks

[@KelseyRodriguez]

huh, I've got no clue. It's possible you got a knockoff of the one I have, which is from IKEA. These do have sides, and work great! hope that helps

[@ReggieTime]

@@KelseyRodriguez thanks for responding, ill keep trying.....nice video,😁

[@hinata1452]

where is your desk from ? Ikea?

[@KelseyRodriguez]

yep! you can find details here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGndeX2FdslqjtU

[@hinata1452]

@@KelseyRodriguez oh my dear thank youu

[@shamz_ai]

this is pretty clean for not being cleaned 😂

[@KelseyRodriguez]

lmao fair haha

[@DragonGateDesign]

There was a little pink soccer ball cat toy under the table

[@KelseyRodriguez]

adds to the realism, you should see all the cat toys under the couch

[@peachypunch]

You are soo sweet😍😍❤❤

[@KelseyRodriguez]

No you are ;)
