Make more art. Experiment. Explore. More Collage. More Painting. More Creativity.
As of 7 May 2024 I have changed the channel name to A Creative Life which is less restrictive than 'My Journey to Become a Professional Artist.' and may have a broader appeal.
A bit of previous history:
Previously called Paint-Cut-Glue with Simone and then 'My Journey to become a Professional Artist'
The channel name 'My Journey to become a Professional Artist' was a title to keep me on track with my goal of seeking, learning and growing in my understanding of the kind of art I wish to make and fulfill the dream of becoming a professional artist.
I may never reach my end goal but I am committed to the path.

Sukoshi is the name of my other channel that I started in September 2023. It is a little bit about lots of different things that interest me.
Then I like to see what a creators most popular video is❤ it’s just so fun. I’m a big fan of collage. I do my vision boards this way. This was a year ago. How is your collage practice going?
I did some collage in a recent video. I tend to use painted papers and usually glue onto a wooden panel. I am a bit like most artists and find it hard to commit to one medium. I really am tempted to decorate a mannequin that I have after seeing yours! 😂
I couldn’t wait to hear your voice when I saw you are a London gal❤ this is lovely to get a bit of art history. I 🩷 Art. You’re brilliant! Simoneism. Your art is gorgeous.
@@SimoneWhippArtist since I became a creator too I realize how important likes and comments are along with subscribing to channels. I especially love to support channels with women my age and especially an artist!
@@Lifeinthewyldewest Yes! It is a good thing that we are all able to support each other especially with watch time and hopefully RU-vid will know that we are worth watching too! ☺
I call our garden a suburban garden too! I always like to see what a creators very first video is like! And! You’re in London!! Love the bird sounds. Is that your gorgeous orange kitty? And a black kitty too? Nice to meet you Simone and thank you for your sub and comments.
Thanks for watching my first video back in 2022! That ginger kitty is my boy cat Gizmo who is 16 or 17 years old! There is no black kitty as far as I am aware ! 😸
Hi Simone. What a good idea... why wait for the establishment? I have watched several of your videos on collage. I think this is an underrated medium. There is a lot of skill involved and the results can be stunning. I wish you all the very best in your journey...
Thank you for watching my videos Kay! I have done this video a little tongue in cheek as I am not so conceited to think I could invent an art movement. Do you have any books on collage you could review? I reviewed a few but there must be many more that I don't know about. Good luck with your channel!
@@SimoneWhippArtist Hi Simone. Yes I do have a few books on collage actually and a list of several collage artists I admire. I will review one next... I have three other videos to finish editing and then I will crack on with a review for you!
That is wonderful! so happy to get glimpse of your art journey. It is a wonderful idea to start art movement. And yours concept of Simonism is amazing!
Starry, starry night. One of my most favourite songs. The loneliness, ugliness and unexpected beauty in the every day world - an artist so to my heart. 😂 Simonism - 👏👏❤❤ I just love this!!. This was brilliant.
Starry, starry night...paint your palette blue and grey....look out to a summer's day.... one of my favourites too! Thank you for the 'brilliant' response Sonet. If only others felt as you do!
Hi Simone! First, thank you so much for sharing a link to my site! Second, your project is amazing! I really like the rounded edges effect and your colors are super pleasing. What a nice art work!
That 3rd one is beautiful ❤ I see an old mans face on the left in number 4, but I think it was intentional. ❤ The stained glass effect ones in the book is great. The owner confronted me about Twiggy today and demanded that I must give her back. It has been 4 months!!. Now he is going to open a case of theft against me. If I disappear then you must know I am in jail. 😮
Thanks for looking at my old stuff Sonet! 😂 That is a shock about Twiggy's owner. Can't you report him for animal cruelty? I hope that he is just threatening with words rather than actually take action against you. You should send him a bill for Twiggy's bed and board!
@@SimoneWhippArtist It is a pleasure. I see stuff second time around I did not when I looked at it the first time. I will not give her back Simone. I'll fight this with lawyers if I must. Problem is it gave me a huge panic attack. 🤣. I just came home from the ER.
Love your bracelets. The book cover is beautiful Simone. Your bracelets were the first thing I have noticed. 😊 Luscious is a beautiful word though. ❤ I spoke about getting weak in the fingers and hands as you age just the other day. 😊 Beautiful colour combination that turned out to be.
Thanks Sonet! I'm usually OK for opening lids. It is my wrists that I have trouble with as they are so weak. I wouldn't be able to do a handstand!!! Ha ha!!!
Great technique! I am a professional artist and I mostly work in oils. Sometimes I work in water media, too. I share my work on RU-vid. Cheers on a Sunday!
Thank you for leaving a comment. I have just been to your channel - your paintings are so vibrant and joyful! I have yet to try oil paint. It is a goal of mine to be able to paint in oils one day.
Loved the final artwork that looks so cool. You have a great way with color combination. Even the greens have lot's of variety in texture That looks great in this artwork!
Thank you! I really need to know your name one day Miss Dilettante so I can address you correctly. I still haven't completed the artwork but did just enough for the video. It needs refining.
Is it a free site you get your music from? Nice music and you do not have to give credit. I am still here. Watching your every move 😁 and listening to a music playlist whilst doing so. 17:18
I get all my music from RU-vid Studio. If you go to your channel, on the side bar is Audio Library and if you click on that a list appears of songs for you to choose from. If you click on License type it will give you a description. All of the ones I have chosen do not require attribution. It says: RU-vid Audio Library License. You can use this audio track in any of your videos, including videos that you monetize. No attribution is required. Hope that helps Sonet! 😊
@@SonetLandman I hope you can get access to the RU-vid Studio Audio Library Sonet. It is free to use and the only music I have ever played on my channel. ☺
