Sorry but as an artist who hears this question a lot, i had to pause the video the second you were questioning if you should call yourself an artist, to write this comment. YESSS! You are such an artist! You create, arrange, express, iterate, imagine, share, appreciate. All the basic elements that drive us to do what we do. You are an artist. Your medium is nature, and your content conveys a lot. Keep crushing it!
you are absolutely an artist. you've created a beautiful collection and space, you create with intention, you create with freedom.. you create! and you also inspire others to create, which to me is inherent to being an artist :)
AHHHHH OMG!! I gave Benji’s Mom that grafted succulent (: it was a pain to me never wanted to grow more roots haha I’m glad she likes it!! (: Benji’s mom was so sweet she kept telling me to take the leftovers haha!!
Hello! This vlog was supposed to come out before the one I just previously posted, so the events in the video are around early-mid December. There were some delays due to the holidays, but here it finally is! p.s. my next video is going to be about my pots and ceramics :)
These videos really are something. Seeing all the lovely moments that Benji shows in these videos gives me motivation to go out into the world and have my own! Thank you!
As a fellow Asian (British born with FOB Vietnamese/Cambodian parents). I love how supportive your parents are. I’ve fallen in love with them! Your dad positively surprises me all the time even though it shouldn’t! Xxxxx
If a person has seen even one of your videos, there will be no doubt in his/her mind that you ARE an artist. You create beautiful work. You create beautiful vibes.
You absolutely are an artist! Your "canvas" are your plants, and your home. How you display your plants. Your aquariums are pieces of art, with water and the tank being your medium. The way you landscaped your balcony is art. Your photography is art. Your choice of music for the videos is art. You are an incredibly talented artist, who has not limited himself to just one type of art. I have just accidentally stumble across your channel this evening, and have been watching several different videos for the past 4 or 5 hours! You have given me much to think about, and much inspiration for how to display my own "green babies". You have also just inspired me to venture into another "habitat" for plants...water. OMGosh, the possibilities.... :) I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight, my mind is already whirling with idea at 100 mph. THANK YOU for the very relaxing, informative and inspiring videos!!!
Hello artist here, you are definitely an artist! Different artists use different mediums and I find yours unique and beautiful. I believe that what you create holds meaning and that’s what art is!
ive been feeling shit these past few days but watching your vids is just 🥺🥺🥺❤❤ theres comfort in listening you talk about the things you love and it makes me want to cry happy tears. thank you so much ❤🌱
As someone that's been watching both yours and PearFleur's content for a while now, this collaboration feels so refreshing, it's like my two worlds colliding lol! Much love to you both
I was having a pretty rough and bad day but your videos always brighten my day and I could not stop smiling throughout the whole video. Your videos are just so calming and give me nothing but pure Serotonin. I want to thank you for that. Also, I would absolutely consider you an artist! You create these wonderful videos and inspire people. THAT IS ART.
You can absolutely call yourself an artist bc, I think being artistic is being creative, passionate, love it, and you going your way to make projects of/with it. You really love what you do and thats the most important thing with being an artist. Artist can come from all forms.
the essence of art I think is supposed to make people feel and your whole channel is just feels on feels for days,from the plants themselves to the arrangement, video editing,bgm,you,and pear fleur is an amazing artist, and artist asking another artist for their artwork, I am here for, art is forever changing, so I guess labels will come in for people who work with plants as their medium of art, benji you're gonna be there too,much love.
Saying this as a graphic designer/illustrator/creative, You are ABSOLUTELY an artist. Art is an extremely broad term so please don’t feel bad using it to define who you are and what you create! 😊
You are definitely an artist. You have a definite sense of design. The way you display your plants is awesome! Love your videos. Your balcony is awesome! 🥰👍🪴🌱🎋🍃🌾🌿
There’s no doubt...You are a gifted artist by nature. 🌱 What I wouldn’t give to have half as much talent and design with plants. You have a authentic calmness and peacefulness that show through your plants. That is truly a gift that no money can buy. You are an artist and plants just happen to be your medium. Thank you for sharing your artistry with all of us.
Benji, you are a artist, your prints are lovely and don’t sale yourself short, I only found you recently and they are so relaxing, so a big thank you 😃🙏 ❤️from Bristol uk🎍🪴
What you said about this collaboration with nature is exactly what classic poets like Goethe and Schiller said was essential for creating art. That's one of the main characteristics of classic poetry.
Oh I love watching your vids so much bc they are super chill, always. It takes me to a much calmer place, as I am usually hella stressed, always. Thanks!
I relate to the artist conundrum a lot. I do digital anime art, but I always have the intrusive thought "well it's not REALISTIC art" but that's not how art works, Brain!😖
You are an artist. Art is in painting, ceramics, programing, architecture, design, science, plants, the list is endless. Anything can be art, it just depends on the intention to call it as such, and the presentation. You are without a doubt an artist. I am Visual Designer and Artist.
i believe you are an artist, bc of your plants ofc but also you prints bc photography is a type of art. you are a artist :) if you are seeing this you are a insporation for me and my plants i love watch your videos and you make me rly happy, i want to grow my plant collection bc of you so thank you for helping me find something i love doing. thanks again
I love how organic your videos are. I particularly enjoyed this one. So relaxing! You are most definitely an artist and a damn good one at that! Keep creating :)
I don’t usually comment on plant vlogs. Benji, you are nothing but pure calmness. Your voice, your humility, your ART. Yes it is art. Don’t forget ‘art is what YOU create’. I want the plant art to show support.
I paint and make things and do “art” all the time and I think what you do is art! You make art with plants especially your terrariums and little ecosystems they’re art 🥺 the way you display your plants is so unique
Dude… what you do is more than Art. It’s a life style. It is Life. It’s a bondage that we form with Mother Earth. I grow different kinds of plants, cacti, and mushrooms at home and they are all beautiful. Which in my eyes is Gods Art that we get to enjoy and life with.
Oh Benji you are definitely an artist! You create, present and inspire all of us who view your work. We learn from you and admire your creations, in all forms. Thank you for sharing your art with us and thank you for your beautiful videos, you have such a way that captivates your audience ❤️ 🙌
Hi Benji, I recently found your channel and your videos have easily become my favourite videos to watch! Your videos are super calming and they help me relax after a long day or when I'm anxious. I hope you continue putting out more and more videos. Much love from Kenya🙂
In a time of over stimulation and multi-tasking I can’t believe I watch your videos from beginning to end without interrupting myself …you are an artist
Your content is soooo therapeutic. I learn so much from watching these videos, I’m thankful that I came across your channel. Btw your family and friends are so awesome! Keep on being great benji.
Oh goodness my dear don't convince yourself BELIEVE yourself you are so very talented and an amazing Artist 😁💚🌱🌿🪴💯 I love your Vlogs and you and Chris are so very sweet together You guys totally vibe it's beautiful to see !!
Hi Benji. I totally agree with Pearfleur your work is Art. The way you display your plants in the pictures, your creation etc........soooo pleasing to the eye. 😊
I really appreciate your channel. I watch your videos almost every night before going to sleep. Thank you for bringing such amazing content. You are an inspiration in many ways)))
I love you. You are sooo creative, the things that you create.. I can’t even explain it but as a kid I’ve always wanted to create things like this. This video brought me so much joy. I love how calming your energy is.
wow such a happy coincidence Pear Fleur is your commissioner, I've been subscribed to her since 2017 I loved her plant studies and artwork. It's such a relaxing aesthetic, it also lead me to getting into plants and home gardening as well
Art is any kind of expression..... That creates emotion.... Happiness sadness amazement It could be visual audible readable It has many form And what your doing is an art🤩
What you do is definitely an art. It's interesting because you view your work differently than everyone else. Your work and sculptures are absolutely stunning. I definitely consider you an artist.
You are definitely an artist!! You make the ecosystem and plants come alive with your artistic view. You take us to another world, that we really don't pay attention too. The beauty is you can name your craft whatever you like, just like your work. Think big!!
I had to pause the vid ( like other people did lolz ) cause you are an artist. Every possible criteria to define an artist, is met by what you do. You’re an artist. An amazing one at that! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💜
Benji you’re absolutely an artist! A lot of us own plants, but most of us can’t style them in the way you do. I told you this before, but you inspire me to do so many different types of plant projects that I never thought of before. I always want my plant aesthetic to look as good as yours. It takes a certain type of eye and talent to style the plants & create plant projects in the way you do. Love every second of this video. 😍🌱
Yes you label yourself an artist. Oh my gosh you are so humble and amazing. At least what you show on video. But I feel it's genuine. Art is in the eye of the beholder and I think you are doing art.
anyone creating something is able to call themselves as an artist ❤️ I would love to someday live in a world where the label artist is not exposed to so much gatekeeping...
You're definitely an artist. I feel if you express yourself through a medium other than talking it constitutes as art. You're asthetic appreciation is shared via your creations and I love it the same way I love certain musical artists or architects etc
Plant art, I love it. I define art as anything that speaks to the soul. You seriously have a great eye for plant design. It is inspiring me to change the way I display my collection.
my sis is a graphic design artist, and i would always chill when she was making her art, and one thing i learned, is that the term “art” is very maluable, and what your doing, is absolutely art
It's absolutely art, all of it. Some youtube videos I wouldn't call art but yours are. It is magical and brings such a vibe, you're an incredible artist in my opinion. Especially the things you do with moss and the content you create around that ❤️
I'm studying like architecture and visual arts (I don't know how it's called in English) some people think that that makes you an artist and u need that to be one. But It's arguable what art is , some might say it has to do with studies or degrees but I think that if u are passionate, know what ur talking about and good what u do ur an artist. So I think u are an artist. I also love ur ✨Aestetic✨ and plants😊🌱
I vended at a plant and art craft show today and I made a piece inspired by your moss art work and terrarium builds. I ended up making a bit under $700 on all my botanical art. so yes my dear you are a botanical artist and that is so valid!
Definitely an artist, anything working with compositions and creating something I would consider art. I myself make a lot of art and crafty things but indoor/outdoor gardening and decorating allows me to express that creative desire with minimal effort/supplies 🙂🪴🌵🌿🌱. I’m really bad at finishing art projects at times so it’s fun to do something less involved than sitting over a hunched over for hours or waiting for paint to dry 😂. And when I mess up or feel overwhelmed my pieces are less likely to be worked on lol.
hi i just wanted to pop in and say as someone that has a degree in art history i’ve seen so many things that are considered art with much less than what you do. you can 100% call yourself an artist and call what you do art. art can truly be anything if you label it as such
I think you are an ARTIST. I think art has to make you feel something and you're PLANT ART is making me feel comfy and nice and it reminds me of how beautiful the nature is. I think if you're being creativ and create something you're an ARTIST.
How can you bit love Benji.... he is such a calming human... You are an artist... it takes skills to do all you do. Artist is not a one dimensional field. Many can't do what you do
Your definitely a artist! You are so talented! Your interior decorating, terrariums, display of plants etc is incredible! Your my favorite plant youtuber hands down! Ps tell theo I love him!
Glad your plant swap turned out well. I would love to attend a plant swap some day. Love your honesty about being nosey. 😊😊 People just need to claim it when it happens 😜
