STUDIO VLOG 34 ✶ Our 1901 home, and an afternoon in the studio ✶ Natasha Newton

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

✎✐✎ ART CLUB ✎✐✎ I've just started my monthly art club on Ko-fi! Find out more and join us here: www.ko-fi.com/natashanewton Let's have a walk around the garden in the autumn sunshine while I tell you a little about our somewhat unusual home, a beautiful Victorian country house in the Surrey Hills that is currently being extensively renovated and restored by my fiancé Dominic and his family. My studio is on the top floor of the house, overlooking the North Downs. Come inside where we'll have a chat and you can see what I've been up to recently (and what a state the studio is currently in!).

Stunning home. What an amazing place to have an art studio. If only walls could talk...I think I listen to too many paranormal podcast. Love your art and love your color palette.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Well, it's funny you should mention that! We've had numerous paranormal experiences here. I'm so pleased that you love my art, thank you!

[@MrOddnerdrum]

Can’t wait to see more of your art and more studio/home tours and maybe a ghost story vlog. 😜. Thanks

[@Angie-pl3uw]

Your art boggles my mind; it is incredibly beautiful. Paint a map of that wonderful house and its grounds!!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you so much! That's a nice idea. :)

So this was one of the very first videos I watched on your channel. Then I've been starting from the very first video and trying to work chronologically to the most recent videos. I'm watching this studio one again and I feel like it's such a different vibe now that I've seen your progress the entire year. Thanks for uploading and sharing your process and work on KZbin. I really appreciate it.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

That's really interesting - how does it feel different? I think I know in which way the channel has gradually evolved and changed, but it's always interesting to hear another person's thoughts. :)

What a lovely calming vlog ✨ It’s so interesting to see all of your works in progress in your studio, 👩🏻‍🎨🎨 & it was fun to see the glimpses of my work in progress: our house & garden! 😆🛠🧱🧑🏻‍🌾🍃🤍😘 xxx

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Your work-in-progress is coming along beautifully! 🛠🧱😘 xxx

[@KatieMoody]

I've just found your channel Natasha and have binge-watched your videos! Really loved seeing your studio space and more of your home in this one, what a beautiful space to create!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you so much, Katie! Really pleased that you're enjoying the channel. I must have a look at your videos too!

[@judihussey5889]

Your creativity amazes me!

[@ninaf.2042]

Your garden seems huge, that is so nice and must be really inspiring. And I love the green details on your home :)

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Nina, I think the grounds of the house are about 6 acres in total. It's been so good to have space like this for walks during lockdown when we were isolating. So thankful for it! I'm always inspired by the trees in the garden. :)

[@SarahNewburyArt]

Hi Natasha! I’ve just discovered your channel and I am really enjoying seeing all your different works in progress! I haven’t really got the space to have several pieces going on at the same time but I love the idea! Take care 😊

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Hi Sarah! Thanks for watching - I'm so pleased that you're enjoying the videos and seeing a little bit of the 'behind the scenes' works in progress! I'm so thankful to have a larger studio space than the one I had before (although it was a lovely, cosy little room!). It does make it easier to work on several paintings at once, which is my preferred way of working. :)

[@MelanieChadwick]

That was nice to spend the afternoon in your studio and see soo many pieces in progress. I especially got excited when I saw the map!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Mel! The map needs a LOT doing to it! But I have some ideas for this series. ;)

[@kabruder]

I loved seeing the garden, the building, and the studio. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful places are really inspiring ❤️

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Karen! It really is a very inspiring place.

[@SpookyRooster135]

Wow what a beautiful house and view. Such lovely paintings. Marry him quick 🤣

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thank you! We're very lucky to live here, and especially appreciate it so much during lockdown. The view and having nature all around is very inspiring. :)

[@carlyamandaart]

Lovely Vlog Natasha, your studio is so ‘you’, it dawned on me when I saw the dark wall, that it looks like one of your beautiful paintings. Do you ever have the urge to paint some green hills with a little cottage and smoke coming out of the chimney on the wall? Xx

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Carly! I hadn't before but I do now...! ;) xx

[@wendybellamy1437]

Fabulous and so inspiring. Thank you.

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

And doesn't the house look lovely in this one! :)

[@katejanes4724]

Your artwork, studio, house and grounds are all so lovely!! Would you be able to share where you got the cream trunk you store the magazines you have been featured in? Love it!

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Kate! It came from La Redoute and I love it. If you can't find them there anymore, I know that Habitat do them too, as I bought a beautiful greyish-blue one with copper handles/clasps from there just a few months ago. They had a variety of colours, I seem to remember!

[@katejanes4724]

@@NatashaNewtonArt thanks so much! i'll check it out!!

[@fionasimagination]

Lovely video! Thanks for sharing ♡

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks so much, Fiona!

[@mollbatt30]

Gorgeous! So inspirational all around. How do you deal with not becoming attached to your work. I’ve created pieces that I don’t want to part with, which is crazy I know 🤣

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

It's hard sometimes! But I do create them with the knowledge that they will be sold...although some I really do want to keep. :)

[@BrenzerM]

I would sit in that room smiling all day! so peaceful

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Thanks Mandy, I pretty much do! :)

[@joffypanjikaran78]

Hi Natasha yours home is very fantastic. I think old is gold and nice placeses. Your new night painting are good effect. My new work is not completed.How are you and your husband. How are your paintings business. Tanks

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

Wow, your painting sounds like a huge piece! I hope it's not too much hard work (I remember that you said it was a bit of a strain in a previous comment the other day). Dominic and I are both doing well, thank you! At the moment, business is going very well, despite the current Covid situation, which I'm quite surprised about! Take care Joffy, and have a lovely day.

[@SJFoss]

I noticed when you were flipping through the magazine there was Acorn by Tugboat Prints!! I have the exact same one! Is it your print or part of the magazine?

[@NatashaNewtonArt]

It's part of the magazine! Such a beautiful piece of artwork. :)
