art making vlog ♢ 

art making was definitely not boring!! Literally throw it all in we want it all!!!

omg leigh, i have been watching your videos for a long time and i am currently visiting my parents/home (in ohio). i got my parents to try embroidery with me in the living room and i was sick of watching football on the tv so i switched it to this video, to have someone do art while we also do art. my dad (61 y/o) has been a huge inspiration for me and my art. as he has gotten older, he has been doing art less and less. to my surprise, he put his embroidery down and said out loud "that's a good idea! maybe i should carry around a sketchbook and do art". serendipitously, i just went to blick and bought a sketchbook same day and ran up and gave it to him. he looked so happy! because of you and your video, you inspired my dad to do art again! it means so much to me and i wanted to share. thank you

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who feels that often the panel paintings go great, or the sketchbook spreads are great, but rarely both at the same time 😅

i really enjoy sped up footage, not necessarily for the sounds, but because i love seeing every little step you take in your process 💗 it helps me remember that other people dont just instantly create art but take quite a bit of time to produce it!

I love that you added the “sped up” ink drawing! Keep ‘em coming 😊

the way your layouts in your journals are ALWAYS so inspiring, it kills me when you talk about how you don’t like some of your pieces but lol i get it at the same time… always love your own life shots too (breakfast montage?? perhaps? walks to your studio) and could seriously have this video be twice as long :] also can we talk about how great your outfit was with the matching bra straps and bandana?…. wow.

perfect amount of art making footage 🩷

Loved the sped up ink drawing footage and your sketchbook work, the colour palettes are awesome! ❤❤❤❤❤

I love the art making, with or without commentary. I think it’s very relaxing to watch!

These videos are the perfect thing to get me out of ‘art brain fart’ vibes

I had the same issue down sizing in my sketchbook so I turned it into a warm up sketchbook book. That’s my thing now I have a lot of small warm up sketchbooks and big “prettier” sketchbooks with full spreads and paintings that I take more seriously. I find that constantly switching between them helps not having such a struggle period starting a different sized sketchbook.

I love the speed up sketching. I also love the tree you did not. I liked the mix of art making sound and voice over. ❤❤❤

loved the art making, can't get enough of it honestly, so please keep it coming 🙌 also, big yes to sped up ink drawing footage!!!

I really love the red ink page, it looks gorgeous!

I love these creating parts so much!!

Loved the video, the art making, the voiceovers, everything.

Loved all the art making in this video!! 💛

I’ve always loved your sketchbook work. Not to discount your paintings, because they’re still lovely. I just prefer the look of the work you do in your sketchbook. It seems looser and more fun. I especially love your pen drawings. The way you put shadows in makes me so happy.

Your art making with voice-over is perfection to my eyes and ears. Thank you ♥️, so much, for making art and sharing it on RU-vid💫👌

oh my god...never been this early to a leigh video im so happy

I use these Art Creations sketchbooks too- the smaller one, I leave on my desk for those days when I just feel like I only have the motivation to do a small sketch of something....I am like you, not taking sketchbooks "on the go" so leaving it on my desk is perfect! I have the pink one in the tiny one and I can't remember what color I have in the A5 size- the only bummer about these is that they aren't good for wet media-like watercolor. but gouache works great!

I honestly your forehead is completelys fine. I think this hairstyle is cute on you and I love widows peak, i think it looks like a heart. ❤

If you do art you don't like, you've created an learning experience, which you will take to the later iterations. FWIW, I really liked the tree. I find your paintings, all of them, to be amazing. :) Great colors, great strokes, and original.

leigh forehead reveal

If you did the painting and the sketch at the same day after each other, I would say, that the first one is always a warm up. So don’t be so harsh on yourself, you just warmed up your painting muscels in the first try. You wouldn’t expect from yourself to climb the hardest route on your first try. And maybe that’s why the second one feels better!

Your hair is getting so long! And it looks great!! 😊

I loveeee the red ink spread 😍

YAYYY a new video from you, I missed you girl!!!

You’re the best ✨ Keep doing what you’re doing 🌻🌸

Bonus points for the smiley face of blue paint spots in the tree

How come everything that you do is so incredibly beautiful???? 😭😭 I wanna be like you someday 🥹

Loved it 😍

That oura ring gave u +1000 aura🎉🎉

I freaking love your color selection so much, they are so just so different but go so well together. I need my brain to do that 😂 it would be fun to have maybe a little bit slower when it comes to the colors

i luv ur forehead

Me: I should buy and use that sketchbook brand, i would love to use the same as leigh (*who still haven't finish a sketchbook *) 😂 I love your videos Leigh 🩷💚

widows peaks r superior i want one

🖤🖤🖤🖤

Yes, leave your sketchbook on your desk with the art supplies around it 🙂 that is the only way I have been able to fill my abandoned sketchbooks, I have filled 4 this year and I still have many left 😫😅 (but I don't make beautiful art like yours, my "art" is very ugly, fast, messy, but it works for me) 😂

leigh i think that its so funny that i also bought a red, pink, and lavender medium sketchbook. this was after i watched ur sketchbook video

I loved your videos

We were not ready for the forehead reveal... No complaints, lil surprised.🌝🤍🌸

I have the same brand of sketchbooks from the beginning, and there was a time when I was working in all the three different sizes at the same time. When I wasn’t sure about one drawing’s outcome I tried it, in the smaller one, and the smallest was my warm up sketchbook, and I made more complex images in the bigger ones. And do you paint with guache on the woodpanel?

❤

We need a travel gouache palette tour pleaaase/at home setup?? Ps my forehead is my dirty little secret

Not me eyeing up that big boy painting like 👀

Excellent forehead well done for sharing it consider keeping the art you dislike and moving forward onto a new piece because there could be a day where you look back at it and you go. This is the gem what was I thinking? Love your content thanks

Enjoy your videos!!🤗

I love yours video❤

Hi Leigh! I watched today’s vlog i loved it! I immediately went to my local art supply store to find that pinky orangey pencil you sketch with but i had no luck. Would you share what color it is? It looks like a prismacolor pencil. Thanks so much ! You crushed it today!!

perfect and cool like it

you went almost the entire year without saying a single word about palestine. not even acknowledging it. in ANY shape and form. it must be really, really nice to not think about it and the way it’s affecting our lives !!!! love that for you !!!!!!!!!
