I discovered your channel like yesterday and im already a fan! c: i am currently studying graphic design in my hometown and watching you doing art and stuff is giving me so much motivation to try like literally anything i persuaded myself i couldnt xpp sending a biiig hug from mongolia:DD

[@sunnykabocha]

omg you're from mongolia? my grandparents are from inner mongolia 🥹 lots of love!

[@joodyuniverse2322]

I’m studying graphic design too good luckkk

[@ninanegedu]

I literally just discovered it and I love it here❤

[@BiteMeMyLoveXoxo]

Wow, I just wanted to say I love your illustration, the diversity, detail and characterisation of them, creates such a narrative, even in the drawings of mundane actions. They don't shy away from imperfection or hide behind extensive line art. I think I'm in love.

[@sunnykabocha]

🥹🥹thank you so much sweetie

[@BiteMeMyLoveXoxo]

@@sunnykabocha no, thank you 😭

[@ArtyAntics]

I’m so happy to see you making friends, it’s no easy thing. I was really concerned for you last week, but you seem a lot happier 😊 and I always love to see your art. P.s. in England fat ‘fries’ are called chips. Never seen fish n chips with bread tho, that was new.

[@sunnykabocha]

awww thank you for your concerns :,) yeah that hot dog form was def kinda crazy tbh HAHAH

[@Blick_Art]

This must be such an adventure! We saw painting again, and after last week's coiled hand building ceramics, this week we saw wheel throwing and slab building, and every artist's favorite haven, the library! We can't wait to see some close up painting footage and some details about your materials and process!

[@sunnykabocha]

omg hello again, thank you so much!! 😂💖

[@katiefowler5170]

[@sunnykabocha]

love you and thank you!

[@blob9638]

hey! an important thing to keep in mind when knitting is to keep the tension pretty consistent throughout --- so tighten the thread a good amount when you start a new row!! bc manipulating it loosens the last stitch of the previous row hopefully it'll keep your next project from getting all warped wide :D

[@sunnykabocha]

ohhhh okay. but i kinda like the ones with like diff tensions and yarns, like the thick and thin and they look kinda ratchet but cute 😂

[@fruitchew]

I love how blick keeps commenting !! also, very cute yarn choices

[@sunnykabocha]

THATS WHAT IM THIBKING

[@yueningnhaa]

I'm so happy that you are thriving in grad school!! I can't wait to see more your adventures and journey as a artist! 🥰god I wish I could've meet you during your time in sva ahh 😭

Hello Sunny! your video reminded of the time when I studied art in the UK! everything was so new I made so many mistakes but when looking back, everything was wroth to get through! You will need a lot of vitamin DDDD due to weather lol! have a lovely weekend xxx

[@sunnykabocha]

ahhh thank you so much for watching!! and i will remember the VD 😚💖🫶🏻

[@Schiris]

I would love a video about your procreate art, it is so beautyfull. Like what kind of brushes you use and how you create the immage from start to finish. I use procreate myself but mostly for lineart, i am definitly intimidated by all the brushes💞

[@sunnykabocha]

i can try, but i just need a better tripod hahaha

[@juliachng]

sunny i cant wait for the new video, i love your videos and ur style in general ur amazing :))) also random question but have you listened to midnights and if so whats ur favorite song?

[@sunnykabocha]

[@juliachng]

ahhhhhhh u replied!! i like karma and vigilante stuff lol

[@Amy.PCB.home.]

I just discovered your channel and love viewing your beautiful artwork and creative process. I love art but can't draw and it's inspiring to watch your process. It's great to see positive content also. Don't doubt your talent, it is a gift and you will always be able to support yourself. 🦋💜🌷

Hey Sunny, I admire your art sketch I live in Plymouth not far from the Art school. Saw a poster of a girl in the kitchen with her dog put on a wall in the city centre of a exhibition of your work I felt in love of it that I made my way to the Ocean studio Royal William yard 3days ago and saw your collection!

[@sunnykabocha]

ahhh i'm so happy to hear that!! thank you so much 🥹❤️❤️

[@ponokealii]

I really love your channel. I've been a freelance Art Director and Designer for a few years but I just recently decided to focus on developing my digital fine artwork while still doing freelance design work but more as creative passion projects than as a working career. I love your creative style and the way you explore various mediums rather than only participating in one. I believe that creatives are better served by applying their creative gift to all possible media in the search for vehicles for their creative expression. Pono 😛🤙

I love your voice!!! And excellent art work!!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@sunnykabocha]

ahhh thank you 🥹🌷

[@Swamprinzess]

Great videos. Re:knitting Im sure you figured it out already! My mom taught me to drop a stitch at the end of each row so my scarves don’t widen.

[@sunnykabocha]

i did not figure that out thank you LOL 😂🫶🏻

[@cholezhang772]

It is nice that is my love as well!

[@PrincessRomi1]

I choose bread by price 😆 Only the cheapest in this household please 🤣 20GBP for superdry jacket is a STEAL. Working clay looks like so much fun, I wish there were some pottery classes near me I'd love to do some clay creations. Doing well there Sunny!

[@sunnykabocha]

i like hardy breads tho! i cant with the ones that are too soft you bite into it and it's melts... that's fine for pastries but not for my toast!

Your vlog is so relaxing as always

[@sunnykabocha]

thank you! it's just like an ink brush i think... not sure 😭

[@ShatteredRippleBooks]

I forgot to say the easiest way to add extra stitches accidentally in knitting is forgetting to take your stitch off after you've knitted in to it. It just takes practice.

[@sunnykabocha]

thank you dear 🥹💕

[@hftc8970]

hello! i liked your video it was really of relaxing. regarding the knitting i’m not really sure exactly what you’re doing wrong or if you figured it out but don’t skip stitches that could unravel! i had the same issue of widening when i first started, now i’m pretty sure i had been going in the little strand before the one on the needle and accidentally adding one. watching videos to see what it should look like helps, and just practice will help you get the hang of how the stitches are made. also i recommend shorter needles, the long ones i hate so much, i love circulars or short ones so i don’t have long metal rods banging my elbows. if they’re the only size i have that’s fine, just makes the experience slower and more annoying. also the colors and yarns you chose were really pretty, and i love your art!
