STUDIO VLOG: PAINT WITH ME!

[@neidedegouvea]

Thank you very much Sandi for the great ideas for a Sketchbook 🥰

[@cherihermans9118]

Yes please to having more sketch with me or paint with me videos. 🤗

[@priyajoshi2323]

I ADORE this style and process, and your tips are so so precious, you are a blessing ❤

[@vichitorcaza1402]

Love that you drew Fran Meneses! 😁

[@cherihermans9118]

Just lately I have started sketching so this video came at just the right time. Have been trying to water colour as well. Thank you 😊

[@impish22]

love this... how fun

[@angelahunnel9425]

I am so glad to have watched this video! I've seen glimpses of these drawing journals in your other videos and I love this! I don't think I've ever seen anything like it! It speaks to me...lol! I really enjoying watching the videos on your channel. Some of them I've watched multiple times! They make me happy!

[@sandihester]

Thank you so much!

[@pambuike4587]

Yes please....I really enjoy the sketch and paint with me videos...such good info and I am a visual person. You make it so much fun and sharing the "not perfect" results ... in your opinion ( they look great to me) makes it much easier to just jump in and enjoy the process. Thanks Sandi, you are amazing.

[@sandihester]

Awe - I'm so glad these videos are helping you jump in there! Thank you for your kind words!

[@intuitiveinspiredart4366]

Yay! This is oooo inspiring.

[@sandihester]

Oh good!!!!

[@Suzi77]

So excited to see your video. I love your relaxed approach to sketching and painting. Having fun is my purpose in life.Yes please more sketch with me videos. Have you been able to stick to your plan to give yourself the mornings to do your art. My best drawing time is in the morning. Looking forward to your seeing your next video. Thanks so much. 🙋🏼‍♀️🌻🎨

[@sandihester]

Suzanne thank you so much! I'm working on filming another paint with me video this week! Thanks for asking about my mornings in the studio plan and for the most part I have been sticking to that - it's been sooooo helpful and I've actually been more productive in life in general because of it!

[@loriminor7253]

Love it!

[@sandihester]

So glad!

[@christinebarone2151]

I Love sketching since I consider myself an urban sketcher using micron pens, tombows and good watercolors. I am going to try fountain pen next ( on my Christmas list ) lol.

[@sandihester]

I think you’ll love it!

[@AprilThriftArt]

I am super excited about this idea of sketching your day! I cannot wait to try it myself. I LOVE how playful and beautiful your sketches look

[@sandihester]

April, I’m so glad you enjoyed this! Let me know how it goes! It’s a really fun way to sketch things you don’t normally draw and document time. Thanks for your kind comments about work!!! And thank you for letting me know how you found me. So glad to have you here and I hope you find lots of inspiration.

[@AprilThriftArt]

@@sandihester I did try it and had so much fun, I loved it. I think I may love this more than just plan journaling and I have always been a HUGE journaling fan. Thanks again for such wonderful videos!

[@sandihester]

Awe, man, that’s great to hear - whoohooo! What medium did you use?

Really well done. Very talented and your studio looks fantastic. Subscribed

[@sandihester]

Ohhhh THANK YOU!! That means so much - thanks for subscribing and leaving me such a nice comment - really really appreciate it!

[@ElinWinblad]

This is the excuse I needed to stop prepping my winter sowing jugs 😆. I have most of them outside already but this is a nice break.

[@sandihester]

Elin Winblad that cracked me up! Hope it’s an inspiring video for you. Thanks again Elin for your continued support and encouragement- I love getting comments (it’s like getting good mail in your mailbox!)

[@ElinWinblad]

Sandi Hester I miss snail mail - when I was a teen my friends and I would send multi page letters to each other twice a week (even though we saw each other 1-2 times a week 😂 90s life) sometimes one small soda bottles with confetti 🎊. They probably ban that now 😅

[@sandihester]

@@ElinWinblad soda bottles with confetti - oh my - I LOVE that!!! you're probably right about banning that now - so true!

[@AWonderfulSheep]

Awww I like this one. We must be on the same wavelength because I've also been doing more visual journaling this year--trying to incorporate sketches into records of everyday mements. (Also I love Frannerd too! I see your color homage to her!) Very interesting tip on the watercolor--I'll have to try that out! Also Sandi, what did you use to record your voiceover--the sound quality was great!

[@sandihester]

Which tip for the watercolor were you referring to? I'm interested to know! Ok, you're not going to believe this but I just used my voice memo thing on my phone! It was better quality than my new camera (I don't like the quality of my mic on my new camera - ugh!). I'm glad you thought the quality was good - I thought it sounded pretty good too but wasn't sure. Thank you for letting me know!

[@AWonderfulSheep]

@@sandihester the tip to rewet watercolors! And yes the voiceover audio was great--I though you used a mic!

[@thefreylife]

Thank you for bringing us along on this day of watercolor journaling!

[@sandihester]

You're welcome - and thank you for watching!

[@tacoman3937]

Love your studio! Just a quick question - i might be moving into a new studio where I can’t get paint everywhere as I do in my current one. I noticed that your table, walls, floor etc don’t have much paint on them. Do you have any tips for not getting it everywhere?

[@sandihester]

Thank you so much! I do have some recommendations but I personally am not a very messy painter. Every now and then I drop my brush or it goes flying but I do have old floors that I don't mind getting a little paint on. For the floors you could either put a rug down (get inexpensive indoor/outdoor carpet), put cardboard down, or drop cloth. I've seen one artist that was in a situation like you are going to be in, put drop cloth or large pieces of fabric all over the wall - she just hung it I think. You could use push pins and then patch those small holes up when you leave there. If I think of any more ideas I'll let you know. Thanks so much for watching and leaving me a comment!

[@tacoman3937]

Sandi Hester yes that’s a great idea! I use a drop cloth but never thought to put them on the walls. Will do!
