hi! I am Gabi (aka Goob). I recently left my engineering job to become a full time artist and I'm posting vids about the journey here. Let's be art pals!
I'm not an artist and not a crafty person ,how I really wish I was, I think I was born without a talent😅 but I just love watching your videos. It feels therapeutic for me ❤
So you seem to be one of those people who are not messy, and don't hoard, but just had an accumulation of things-over-time. Everyone does this for sure... there is a minute amount of people who keep up with the purge and declutter "all the time." GREAT JOB sorting through, making decisions, and getting the stuff under control again. I remember in my youth, when all I had was my bedroom... I could do this. Now, not so much. I enjoyed the video and your thought processes. Nice job and the place looks great. :)
It sounds silly, but I never even considered doing it for a little each day instead of all at once. It’s so daunting to declutter it all that I just avoid it. Seeing how excited this made you is really inspiring. I’m super excited to get home and start with just my shoes and extra clothes!
I’m going to give this a try! I want to share my progress on RU-vid! I’ve been so afraid since I don’t have an amazing set up but I’m going to go for it.
thank you so much for this video! it was so fun to follow along as you decluttered your cute apartment! i have been working on decluttering for so long (and also moved a few times in the last several years), so i was looking for some motivation to keep going! i am the same way in that i sometimes feel so guilty for getting rid of things, AND i want to be sustainable too! something that has helped me a lot is finding recycling programs for random items. my favorite one i just participated in is called SuperCircle. you can send them your old/worn out socks/underwear/nylons and they give you credit to their store of organic cotton underwear/socks/loungewear. i am waiting to get my order and so excited that i got rid of like 17 old clothing items in the process!! anyways, thanks again for the video! :)
Relate to this so much! Thank you for sharing your process 💛 I accumulate a lot of "trash" because of my fear of being wasteful and my place is so small so it doesn't take much to look messy. This year I have been more decisive and started a huge clear out. Steady progress.
Your painting is so good for a first time! I’ve been debating between getting into painting or upgrading my iPad or getting a bigger drawing tablet. Now this makes my decision harder because this looks so fun!
@@tofugoob well I’ve gotten some other new art supplies this year I haven’t used so I’m trying to choose wisely right now until I make use of what I have lol.
Are you kidding me? You did amazing! Good job, I can’t believe for your first time how it turned out, that oil painting is gorgeous 🥰 so happy for you for ticking off a goal you’ve wanted to do for so long. Love that feeling 🙌🏻 thanks for the good vibes!
Yayyy Bob Ross love! I never noticed how huge his palette was...or how huge his afro was haha. Your painting turned out great!! If you'd like some more challenges it'd be cool to see you attempt a paint by numbers and give it some style! I used to love doing those but they always came out so basic so I would try to change them a bit to fit my style.
you are so inspiring! - I love Bob Ross - and when I was a little little kid I used to watch reruns of this guy named Jon Gnagy and he was just like Bob: if you wanted to draw and paint and your heart was in it, you could do anything - and your first oil painting was so good! - and when you said 'he's trying to teach me but I won't listen" well that was my whole school career right there - this was one fantastic video, and I think what I love most is that you won't let anything stand in your way - good for you! - (but please buy a pallette! - lol)
wooow, that was one of your best videos, AND i have to admit that from where i stand you did a better job than him! i just love it! so funny when you treat painting like make up, it's basically the same i agree!! 😅
