Said I Would NEVER Do This Again... PAINTING ON THRIFT ART

After the drama and "backlash" I got from painting on top of thrifted paintings five years ago... I told myself I would never do that (and show the internet) again. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I ENJOYED IT. AND SO DID OTHERS. SO I'M STANDING UP FOR WHAT I BELIEVE IN. LET'S GOOOOOOOOO.

Did you look up any of the paintings/artists? I wonder if you just collaborated with another famous artist or like your neighbor or something.

[@KQonline]

I would love to buy more things from your store, but I’ve been getting multiple scam calls a day since buying your animal sticker sheets :(

[@TheAverageArtist]

OK FINE ILL GET MORE! #OBSESSED I NEED THE SHARK...

[@alannielsen4099]

HOW ABOUT WE DONT BUY YOUR PRODUCTS TILL YOU SHOW OTHER ARTISTS SOME RESPECT! :3

[@just_eirik]

@@KQonline That sounds like correlation not causation. I’ve bought from her many times and have not gotten anything like that.

[@_foxpuppet]

The art got thrifted. Either the artist didn't want it anymore, or the family of the artist didn't care about their art enough to keep it. So either we can let this art become literal garbage, or we can do something with it. Do those commenters want to fill their house with random thrifted art? Or do they just want it to be "preseved" in inevitable landfill?

[@katlynbrown3548]

Exact same thought I have when people get upset about others up cycling thrifts quilts. Like yes, it's a lot of work and love that goes into them but their family didn't want them and if you see a vision for it that you'll use then go for it! Idk why people have to be so mad about it

[@damienglynn]

Plus the snowy one had 83 on the signature... so maybe it from 1983? I think it's so exciting that you take a 40-year-old art piece and refresh it and give it new life.

[@alannielsen4099]

How about you keep it but dont destroy it ? hmmm its almost like ur talking from the perspective of a non artist or art lover? cause noone would say this who does art or loves vintage art.

[@thimug1150]

No, out of dignity of the original artist and the buyer “them” should not just grab someone else’s creation and clam it as your own work, it’s called “bastardize art” and it’s illegal, if the original artist sees this video they can legally sue for vandalism of original artwork and damages, if they want there artwork for personal tampering then they can paint it themselves as a copy, or do a photo-scan

[@_foxpuppet]

@thimug1150 These are DEEPLY mediocre Bob Ross copies that were legally sold. As soon as an original artwork is sold, it becomes the legal property of the buyer who can subsequently do whatever they want with it. Even if these random afternoon time waster projects were worth the kind of reverence you're demanding, there is no legal or moral obligation for it

[@astropgn]

Oh no, I lost my chance to see those originals at the popular Abandoned Thrifted Art Museum.

[@moda78z]

🤣😂 so true

[@alannielsen4099]

this is the attitude that leads to ppl stealing art.

[@karichiewilson]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jaydyboo]

Right? They would've really fit in well in there.

[@thatweirdartkid9990]

As someone who used to work at Goodwill I encourage everyone to do this! The way it works is that if something doesn't sell in a specific amount of time, it gets thrown out. This keeps these art pieces out of a landfill and gives them new life! We have one person who continuously donated his paintings. No one ever seemed to buy them, and it was really sad to see it wasted

[@thatweirdartkid9990]

Also, if anyone wants to do this without altering the original, put the original in a frame with glass in front and paint on the glass instead!

[@karichiewilson]

​That's a really great idea! Never would've thought of that! Thank you! 😀

[@kalinakoleva3734]

Damn, people will really look for anything to be mad about. You go girl

[@alannielsen4099]

damn artists caring about art so weird eh???? fn normies. this is legit a npc comment stop being a joke.

[@bethaniepetitpas5699]

People don't get that a lot of art at thrift shops is mass produced by artists for decor and not great works of art. Not to mention that as an artist myself, I would rather my art end up being rejuvinated by another artist than disposed of or destroyed.

[@mel4957]

the idea of someone coming across a painting you (general you) have worked on and being inspired to put their own spin on it is such a high compliment imo

[@MEKCreations]

@@mel4957 Right? I'm not much of an artist, but I cross stitch among other crafty things. My cousin turned her birth announcement (that I made when I was like 13 and was... not my best work...) into a purse and I couldn't even notice her apologies about having to cut some of it off over my delight that even at 15 she still loved it.

[@ARTSIEBECCA]

I agree I would be flattered if a semi famous or famous artist added thier touch on my work.

[@pureorangeness]

Commenters online are so hypocritical. Always finding something to criticize and acting like they have the high ground. These are great and a ton of fun!

[@katlynbrown3548]

Yeah honestly everyone has opinions and you cannot win and somehow your (general terms) videos and posts get to the wrong audience

[@katlynbrown3548]

Yeah. Like everyone has an opinion and have to always comment on something they don't agree with. Plus it always seems like someone's videos and posts end up getting recommended to someone that wouldn't like it and they get hate. Its almost like negative reviews is on purpose for the algorithm?

[@alannielsen4099]

Hypocritical???? HOW??? please tell me how? you legit just made a strawman with no legs xD stop being a joke and stop being an npc haha

[@captainshanwash]

I love seeing my favourite creators paint over thrifted paintings. I love seeing how fun, unique and interesting it turns out!

[@alannielsen4099]

you can do it aswell make a print out of your favorite artists work n then scribble on it!!! now u also made a collab lol

[@countermelody167]

Its very interesting how some people dont like this, but thrift flips are really popular. How is a painting art worth "preserving", but ceramics, furniture, glassware, quilts, and other handmade bits n bobs arent? Nobody bats an eye when someone makes a cool new sweater out of an old crochet quilt etc.

[@liberty6395]

I love thrift art things! The art you find at thrift store might end up in a landfill, destroyed. This is fun artistic and gives it life

[@alannielsen4099]

true might but unlikely if you have worked at a thrift store you know they do not do this lol but ok lets say that is the case how did the art not have life before a 2d duck was painted on it?

[@martiroberts1039]

As someone who probably has had some of her "masterpieces" taken to thrift shops , (thanks family), I would be honored and tickled pink if one of them ended up being spruced up by you. Haters are gonna hate,. I'm glad you do what makes you happy. I'd love to see you do. more of these.

[@HarukoSan]

I have absolutely no problem with this lmao i love your videos girl. Nothing wrong with painting on thrifted anything. You ate

[@HuntingSunder]

As many have said, the art either goes in a landfill or another artist adds to it. Such is the nature of canvases!

[@EmbalmerEmi]

I love these videos in general! Something that people don't seem to understand is that if it's not sold they're literally destroyed and thrown in the trash.

[@pastelrose2696]

I completely agree with you Kasey, though I don't fully understand why so many people were angry. They sold this art, since they gave it away they no longer have say what happens to it. I mean for all they know you just threw it away or burned it. Turning it into a different kind of experience brings new life into paintings the original owners or painters would have just tossed out. So, you go! These little guys add such a cute and whimsical almost vibe and I think its deserved.

[@JulesFrs]

Gosh darn it, it is ART and ART is supposed to be fun. The Artist did their part and Kasey is doing her part with it. This is super collaborative. I would be honoured if my artwork would be featured by you Kasey

[@TheAverageArtist]

Oh my, I remember this saga! And then it's soooo popular on tiktok.... Glad you are doing it again. I love it!

[@TheAverageArtist]

Dont tempt me with more blind bags, I am obsessed...

[@NutCase]

I always thought people being mad about you painting on thrifted art just don't have a life. You always seem to have fun with them.

[@AccioNarwhal]

People can be such wet blankets. The thing is, they'd never say it to your face. They hide behind a screen. Love these repurposed paintings, so just keep doing what you love, and don't let the haters get you down. ❤

[@ellyettepaige]

Just like Taylor Swift says in one of her songs, "Say it in the streets that's a knock-out, but you say it in a Tweet that's a cop-out."

[@matishtar]

Painting over thrifted art (or upcycling/repurposing other thrifted items) is actually my favourite youtube art content. I love seeing discarded stuff getting a second life! I don't care if some people think it's disrespectful. When they're bullying an awesome creator to tears, THEY are the disrespectful douche canoes here. Ugh! Love how these paintings turned out, their new quirkiness saved them to be appreciated and enjoyed once more. ❤️

[@dutchmill233]

Right? Art is creation after all. To give new meaning and life at something sadly discarded is ALSO what art is about

[@ScarabD]

I don’t think people realise that painting on top of art like this is… actually just more art? I mean like, art is basically commentary on reality. Nobody has exactly the same thoughts about what that commentary should be. This makes the painting into a conversation and that’s literally the point!

[@Beetalerry]

although I could understand where the dislike for painting on thrifted art comes from, i think some of the critics also don't understand that stuff that ends up in the thrift store were put there because they were originally unwanted by someone, and now the products have found a new home by someone who does desire it, whatever that purpose for desire may be is up to the individual user. The moment you have purchased the art from the thrift store, that painting is yours now, and you could do what you like with it. The same way as I could buy a bunch of t-shirts, cut them up, and create a quilt out of it. In the end, repurposing thrift store goodies is a wonderful outcome in my eyes, and much nicer than it ending up gathering dust in the store, and ending up in a landfill along with all the other unsold paintings. all this to say, I love your art and keep up the good work. Seeing these thrift store paintings are sweet, and a kind way to utilize thrift store purchase in my eyes. :)

[@DoodleDate]

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT SHENANIGANS KASEY IS UP TO ON THE INTERNET TODAY

[@Donnie_Frogs]

I love this idea! It reminds me of the video when you drew Iittle ants on real food pictures

[@typarsec1369]

I'm so sorry you had to deal with hate comments! I love thrift store art projects, it's so fun seeing how much the tone of a piece can change. Also, as someone with a few paintings floating around in the wild, I would think it was awesome if someone used an old work as a jumping off point for a new one! You do you hon!

[@dutchmill233]

I feel so bad that they made you cry. I actually love your creative hand at those thrifted art. You did not deserve the name calling.

[@HuntingSunder]

I love all of them! The ducks are my favorite too XD I think people forget that not all art gets saved. A vast majority of art is impermanent, and that's just the way the world works. Artists paint over their own works to reuse the canvas all the time. The important thing is that the original artist got to experience the joy of creating something, and now, so have you because of something that they made.

[@minyathegecko6769]

I agree with you! That art was already abandoned by its owners, there's no harm in re-purposing it!

[@kary47619]

Just like you said….. People are acting as if you went to a museum, stole artwork and then drew over it. If thrift stores weren't a thing, that artwork would be in the trash... so do they prefer it being in a pile of trash God knows where... or given new life???!

[@alexiavuillemard4648]

Why people can't express their opinions nicely ? As an artist I would be so happy to see what my art inspired to another person and know it will have a second life ! I love your art and like you I really like the contrast here. Thank you for doing your thing !

[@hevideer8931]

Just do your thing. You doing great!

[@RachelLevitte]

This reminds me of a time I was on holiday and I ended up in a Pixar exhibition and someone on Facebook tried to shame me for detouring from my self paid holiday to go to a Pixar exhibition. It’s like… it’s yours, it’s your money… whatever you do with it is your decision even if it “seems childish” to someone else. It is your time and your property and they have no right to shame you. It looks great and you did a very good job!

[@youalreadyknow-pt7ls]

Kasey is 100% my favorite artist i love how creative she is like how?!?

[@paulagebhardt6018]

The little Ducky's face peeking over the frame is peak art.

[@BrieJac]

Absolutely loved it when you painted over thrifted art last time. Just like you said, the contrast between your smooth art and someone else's realism style look great. Thank you for doing it again! You are really inspirational to me and my mixed media style.

[@onhandart]

As long as there are artists, there will be people telling us we're destroying the world with what we're doing. I'm with everyone else here who is saying you gave these paintings a new life. I'm a fan of your work and look forward to your next video!

[@bbmeltdown2665]

It's personalizing the art in a collab! And the end result is a piece you'll love :)

[@KaseyTheGolden]

Couldn't agree more!

[@nannywhumpers5702]

This. My brother passed and left some half finished art. I was inspired by video's like this to collab with him.

I didn't like the first ones very much but these are just masterpieces. Thank you for giving it another go. I know if you do another round they would be even more perfect!!

[@Prof_Granpuff]

[@willowytea]

As someone who sells (realistic) traditional art pieces I hope if my art ever winds up in a thrift store someone will take it home and if they feel it necessary to customize it to suit them. It will allow my art to live on which I feel is beautiful

[@SkywavesArtisty]

For the second painting it would be so cute to add open patches of grass. Looking like where the unicorn steps, the snow is melted and the grass if peaking through. Even under the unicorn could also have that open patch of grass! Still loved all of these! ❤

[@soda_fairy]

I remember the whole thing the last time you did this, i also remember when Jazza did the same idea nobody said anything. interesting how that works right

[@Microbirdsoup]

People just absolutely LOVE to be upset about absolutely nothing sometimes. I think this is a beautiful idea and it makes the piece so much more interesting and meaningful. I love your work, do what you love, and thank you! 🦆🦄🐊

[@zoehartist]

Kasey you do not need to justify yourself to others! Honestly if people are gonna be nasty I’d just block them and not acknowledge it! At the end of the day the arts been thrifted and you’ve repurposed it. Could have ended in landfill instead! Do what you like, ignore the haters!!

[@somethingbehindyouu]

Duude I’d be psyched if someone did this with my art.. love the mix of styles

[@knightxayvion]

I'm so sorry you got so much backlash and called names over doing something you enjoy and bringing new life to an old art piece you found in a thrift store. I guess some people just have nothing better to do other than spread hate and be toxic over the internet. Keep doing what you enjoy and if people don't like it they can easily click off the video. Nobody's forcing them to watch something they don't like. Anyways, amazing work as usual! 💜

[@nellshort6179]

I loved your first one of these! It was why I subscribed!

[@KaseyTheGolden]

Awww, and you're still here!

[@negligible_reality]

I don't understand why ANYONE would get mad at this tbh. These are thrifted paintings!!! They were donated because literally no one else wanted them or cared enough about them to keep them in storage, so they were inevitably going to be thrown out if no one purchased them. Now they can stay out of the garbage, and have a second chance, which I think is beautiful personally! As an artist, I would feel honored to have others do something like this with my work!!! Also, these are literally just random pieces that were made by completely normal people, it's not like Kasey is painting on the Mona Lisa or something lol. Like, I could totally see getting upset at someone for painting on the original copy of a priceless/famous piece of art history, but this ain't that lmao. The people who got mad about this kind of video just need to log off and go touch grass tbh, and maybe seek therapy for their anger issues as well. 🙃

[@Loloany]

To the second paint, I think doesn't have clouds because actually is a cloudy day! It would explain why the sky it's so pale But in general, artist might not paint clouds because they can't fit them in a proper way with the rest of the place and be difficult do draw too (For me it's both lol) In the end I liked your version of the paintings! They turned really funny and cute

[@AppelmoesArtandPhotography]

I love this type of content. Feel free to do this more often. No hater here! It’s your channel, do whatever you like.

[@CheySociety]

I remember people yelling at you about it and it was so insane and frankly, hypocritical. There are SO MANY creators who do it and get bit a single negative comment. You can do whatever you want with your own things.

[@KatelynMcCaigue]

These turned out so cute! I am glad you did another one of these videos and it really blows that the last one got so much hate. How I have always seen it is these were donated and thrifted. Either the artist or the owner no longer wanted them or needed them and these repaintings give them a second life! And like you said, this is way better than it ending up in a landfill as well.

[@noraf6514]

I’m glad to see you doing this again, I think that it’s wonderful to give art that has been ditched at the thrift store a second chance! Most thrift store art gets purchased for the cheap frame and tossed anyways.

[@LilHemogoblin]

You're giving a fun new life to things that would otherwise be collecting dust or thrown into a junkyard - BONKERS that people could be mad about that.

[@krissr4257]

Other comments have mentioned that a lot of art at thrift shops are just reproduced, mass produced products which is true. Most aren't unique 100+ hour masterpieces. They are quick replicas or hobbyist practice pieces. It's not that deep. And people don't realize it is a historical practice to paint over old pieces. The "greats" did it because it saved canvas. They didn't just make a new canvas each time they wanted to paint because that was time consuming and expensive. They painted over their own and other peoples' work all the time. Some professional artists still do it today. There isn't anything wrong with it especially once you own the piece. Once it leaves the artist's hand it is free game as long as you aren't trying to plagiarize it. Love how your finished pieces turned out! I love that you tried to keep the tones of the original while still mixing the styles. It looks so fun😄

[@horizon319]

I love your paintings with thrifted paintings. It’s not cool anyone would bully you for this. You did fantastic additions! Feel free to do these as often as you’d like. I’ll keep watching them. ❤ 🌈

[@BlackPixelDustt]

This is such a cool idea that I want to try. These painting (collabs) came out great! Makes me want to try acrylic again. Cute characters. Some notes: FYI, in here and the last video, when an artist writes their name in the bottom left of the painting, it signifies its a copy/study of an existing work. This is tradition in Fine Arts schools. (So don't worry about "messing up" a one of a kind!) If the acrylic paint is still wet, you can wet and wipe up some of the paint, like in the painting with the large ghost. Even if the paint is damp, you can still peel/scrub it off with a brush. It has been useful to me, especially if I want to make the paint film more transparent.

[@soupnoodle5909]

it wouldve been so fun if you had added your signature to the original artists'. especially the second painting where there was a year included!

[@Samahra01]

Someone enjoyed a piece of art and then they didn't want it anymore and instead of it becoming garbage it's being repurposed. People calling you an awful person for this need to take a serious dose of humility. You're a lovely human❤.

[@valeries1764]

Addition to all the positive comments: you show thousands of us these abounded art, which could have ended up not shown and not admired by anyone!

[@cb-wi1cq]

I would be touched if some environment study I did decades ago in art school got turned into such a lovely and cute piece of art. I think people forget that artists paint like hundreds of paintings throughout their career, they give those painting to family and friends or just donate them. Or in my case, it just paint over old painting and reuse the canvas. Ooooh I hope the art farts don't come after for me for that take lmao

[@telperinquar3724]

I enjoy your Thrift makeovers! You bought the art and honestly you can do whatever you want. Why are people complaining when you have every right to do whatever you want with the art piece. You coult lit it on fire if you wanted to - you payed for it. Thank you for still continuing what brings you joy ❤

[@hollytreece6671]

These are some of my favorite videos. I even bought thrifted art and painted on them after seeing your videos. I don't see why people have to be so hateful. It was in a thrift store because no one wanted it. You saved it from the trash like you said. It was your money, not theirs that bought the painting, and now it is your possession for you to do whatever you want with it. This is similar to people who take old dresses or clothes and repurpose them to make new times like updated dresses or ornaments or memory teddy bears. No difference. Keep making these videos because I will watch them every time!!

[@halarkin]

You're honestly very inspiring. The way you embrace your style (which I love) somehow makes it safer for me to let myself just... Make art. Thank you so much. 💙 Don't let the turkeys get you down. 💙

I'm glad you're doing this again!!! It gives paintings that're otherwise forgotten a new breath of fresh life, and a new home to be shown off in

[@kesime]

I feel like this is also such a great way to get over art block cus there's no blank canvas and you have a whole starting idea right there!

[@lucyssilverlining5396]

I'm sad you had to experience that. You have given these art piecesa lot of attention and love. I think the original artists would love this. Thank you for returning to this. I love it

[@whitpoob92]

It's upcycling. Taking something that could've just as easily went into the trash and giving it new life. The artist obviously didn't want it themselves, or someone that had it didn't want it, and donated it for someone else to use. It was "garbage" to those people. So... I mean... I think this is a great thing for people to do. Honestly, I have personal friends who have been doing this (myself included, though I've yet to paint on them), where they're buying old art from the thrift store and painting things on it themselves. Some of the things they're doing are legit MASTERPIECES imo. It's keeping that stuff from getting thrown into the landfill. I see no harm in it at all.

[@JuriLuvsU]

I love this series!! Yesss please do more! You could even expand to digital versions of art from famous paintings as a for-fun warmup. But in general, I love that you're rescuing thrift art and making it whimsical and loved!

Don't care what other people said, these are so cute! Just watched the other video too. You did a good job with these! Nice job going outside of your normal paint medium! Next time I go to the thrift store, I may be trying this!

The internet is full of trolls who have nothing better to do than make nasty comments.

The hate about altering thrifted art is similar to the hate people have for altered book art…. Ummm it’s a book that is destined for the landfill, not a first edition signed copy of a classic. If I want to rip out the pages, glue them together, paint and collage on a book I bought for a dollar then it’s none of your business

Hmm...recycling art is a thing. Whoever critisized obviously has no sense of art history. Ignorance can be ignored. Pablo Picasso, Louise Nevelson and Robert Rauschenburg are just a few of the many who have and still re- appapropiate art. Keep doing what drives you, silly or not, it all has value. Personal value cannot be overstated.

That is fun to do. I did it only once and quickly someone bought it from me. It was fun to do, but I didn’t consider it serious. I’m glad they liked it. It looked pretty good over their mantle.

I love these videos, I enjoy the addition of your art style with these realistic art pieces. Since you said that you’ll keep doing this, guess I’ll keep getting to watch em! Hurray!
