This is so beautiful I almost cried. So thankful she has such a wonderful mom who understands and most importantly you didn’t let it make you bitter just kinder. ❤️
No, Scott’s wife is Donna, who also happens to be my best friend. (I reference them both on my channel a lot though.) I also do their poster shipping, run their website, etc.
I love everything about this post, Bethany. Thank you. I remember middle school difficulties for myself and my daughter and now my granddaughter in 2nd grade is already finding this in her life. It's heartbreaking. Thank you for the wise words, compassion, and hope.
Finally remembered to subscribe to your channel today, and what a profound first video for me to appreciate on multiple levels. The painting is stunning and it is so Carrie Fisher-like to me, one of my favorite writers as well. Everyone has a right to express themselves in a manner that works best for them emotionally. I started a journal last week because of Donna. Though I don't know how she would take the news I am writing down my favorite Irish curses at the moment. I am really looking forward to going back through all of your videos. I grew up watching my mom paint in oils.
Thank you so much! I really felt broken and defective for the longest time because I couldn’t bring myself to (traditionally) journal, even when I needed to. (Also, I adore Carrie Fisher.) Honestly, Donna will love the Irish curse idea. ❤️
@@BethanyPrimrose I completely understood the reasoning why you couldn't journal in the traditional way. I worked in the mental health field for three years, then Special Ed for twenty plus years. My daughter is a Social Worker. "One size truly does not fit all". I am very happy you were able to discover you weren't broken! Good to know Donna would appreciate my Irish curses. I watched your Animals Playlist, so lovely. I have to say your owl is my overall favorite. Loved watching the time lapse and you capturing the depth of the colors.
what times do you guys over at the SBC Discord open up the rules channel? I've been keeping my eye on it for the past day and it's been locked constantly. it's a little annoying to be honest, because I've been trying to get into the server for ages now. I hope you can help me out with this, thanks in advance 😊
I had to laugh when I saw Pawcasso, then thought that would be my cat, Basie. A black cat highlighted with gold dust. Love your headphones; so cute. I might try a very small canvas to experiment.
I had just turned the camera off and turned around to go get something when I saw it happen out of the corner of my eye. She leapt up on the canvas, the easel tilted back upright, and Pawcasso went sliding alllll the way down the canvas, claws out. Donna, Nixxea and various people on Discord saw it happen and a cloud of gold rained down on the whole studio. 🤣
Hi!! Someone recommended me this channel! My parents got me Oil Paint for Christmas but I don't know how to use it as I'm just starting to learn art. Some yt tutorialss for me is too complex to understand I hope you can give me tips, I'd be really grateful! ❤ Happy new year!
Welcome, glad you’re here! I’d start at the beginning of my Fun-Sized Art Lessons playlist, especially about how I prep my canvases and preliminary canvas sketching. I’m working on a million more videos that will cover allllll the topics. Also, if you have learned to do things differently than I do, it doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong, it’s just a different way. We all have varying methods and you’ll find the parts that work best for you. 😊
