I think this was very productive regardless if you didn’t let go of a lot of items. Taking inventory an of your items will allow you to be able to recall what you already have for your upcoming art and help you make smarter purchases in the future!
Awesome video!! My art supplies are so unorganized and in desperate need for a declutter but I keep them in boxes under my bed, so if I can’t see them they aren’t there in my mind!!(:
Thanks for another great video, Carly! They're always so enjoyable to watch. Are you going to sell any of your paintings on etsy in the future? I absolutely loved those little whales you did :)
These kind of videos are so good! I feel the same, I have tons of drawers of art supplies from high school, and they just make me feel bad. I'm a graphic design student, so my work is mostly digital. I feel so torn between my fine art past and getting better at digital 😫😫😫
Yee, I do. I’m much more comfortable with having things I need or use regularly since an over abundance tends to lead to decision fatigue and burnout for me.
It’ve been doing fiber arts off and on since about 2002, but I started getting really into embroidery in 2017 and ended up getting my watercolor-loving friend hooked on it, so they taught me how to use watercolor about 3 months ago. I’ve since then expanded my interests into gouache and printmaking.
Happy new year! I loved the video, it’s great to see some of your arts and crafts interests. Are you thinking of doing any videos based on that? If you haven’t already please check out Minnie Small’s channel (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g8S2N2ARyXA.html). She’s being doing a series recently to challenge her self to go out of her comfort zone by doing quick small water colours with a limited pallet to try and learn and experiment. Thanks again, looking forward to your next video. P.s I hope the financial situation improves for you soon, I’ve been there and it sucks having to count the pennies to pay the bills/eat.
Happy New Years to you as well! I have watched some of Minnie’s stuff and I think some of those videos. :) I don’t think I’ll do art specific videos here, but I post a lot of what I work on over on Instagram if you want to keep up with that. :) @avantbasic
