One thing I love about your style of videos is about talking through your process. It's not blabbering to us lol! A lot of you tubers just show a sped up time lapse, but I personally don't find that as relatable or as motivating. It's hugely inspirational to hear someone else go through the motions of "I'm not sure if this looks good or not, but I had fun." or having a part of a painting that you originally loved and then ended up being a fan of. Love watching and hearing your process!

@sandihester 3 года назад

I'm so glad this is helpful!!! It's a balance constantly of what to show - the dance of too much or too little. I try to share what I would want an artist I admire to share.

@leli_bonustrack2476 2 года назад

Sandi, your way of setting up and painting from a still life is so inspiring. I enjoy painting in your "old" style of capturing light and shadow, but I am in the thick of crafting a more whimsical, wonky style in view of illustrating children's books. Your processes and way of painting loose are just what I need to help me on this journey. You are helping me see HOW to see and translate my ideas in to a fun, childlike language. I am still far away from my sought-after ideal, but thanks to you, I am a lot further along than I have ever been before.🥰. Thank you, thank you, thank.

@amidmoonandmeadow3268 3 года назад

Wow, this channel is what I've been looking for!!!! YES I love that you don't just blab and complain about the things you need to get done and you just PAINT and share with us tips and tricks on how to live an artist life! WOW, totally excited about binge watching all your videos! You make me wanna paint and I have a boost of artsy mojo back in my now! Thanks for being REAL and loving what you do!

@sandihester 3 года назад

Well goodness - thank you so much!!! I'm sooooo glad you are enjoying it!!! And extra glad to know it gave you an artsy boost :)!!!! Really appreciate your kind comment!

@bunnyrose9525 3 года назад

When still life refuses to be still. :) Reminds me of my vacuum cleaner. Apparently, it gets excited easily. I got my food delivery and walked back in saying, "Food's here!" like someone else lives here and will come running. Well, the vacuum cleaner woke up and came out from under the chair. I said, "No, not you! Go back to bed!" The vacuum cleaner turned around and went back to its cradle and said, "Charging now." So, I guess I now have a pet.

@jessaldrich9921 3 года назад

I just found your channel recently (2 days ago??) and have been watching a TON of your videos since. It's so refreshing and real to see your whole process and the waves of emotion you go through with each piece (loving, hating, and all of the things in between). I've learned so much from your channel already...tons of wisdom about practicing non-attachment to each piece and following through with the entire process. Most importantly - you have so much fun when you're painting - the Joy radiates from you and it really inspires me to go create to feel THAT feeling and nothing less. Thanks Sandi!!!

@sandihester 3 года назад

Well goodness Jessica - what a great note to get this morning from you!!! Thank you so much and I'm THRILLED you're enjoying the channel so much and getting something from it. I really appreciate you taking time to write me - so encouraging!!!! And... a big fat WELCOME!!!!

I would definitely buy this painting, it has so much character. If I was to title it, it would have been “The cat chased the bird off the chair” I personally think your own cat had something to do with it. Saw him/her stretching lazily in the background.

@sandihester 3 года назад

Tersia, I think your right about my cat 😂. I was also thinking a good title would be ‘Who Ate the Bird?’ 😂

@CHCHNZ461 3 года назад

@GoldenAstroCat 2 года назад

I love this! I would call it "Where's the Bird?" coz it looks like everyone, including the cat, is looking for it and we can imagine that only the crocodile knows... 😄

I am almost caught up on your videos - and this one was just a delight! I literally laughed out loud with the fruit jumping across the screen (and thus under the couch) - haven’t we all been there! 🤣 I love how you titled this the most fun you’ve ever had - but - I also hope to see more of your videos with the same title, because you shouldn’t only have one time to experience that joy! 💕

I think you’re very sellable! I love what you do and you just make it look like fun! You could at the very least put out a chapbook of some of what you’re proud of. With a few words of your process or something. I would buy it!

Well, THANK YOU!! Really kind of you! I sell stuff all the time and I'm always stunned - it's ridiculous but I've always been like that!

@kathysuits4749 2 года назад

I would title it “Unexpected Happy” a term you used early in the painting. Also, I think the looseness and joy you had at the beginning dwindled away with your “criticism” of it. Keep loose, Sandi!

@Janartable 3 года назад

I’ve been watching from the top of your video list down while color swatching in a new journal...seeing how my mediums look on this new paper. So i haven’t been commenting on each video. But I’m soooo loving your videos. The ‘shelf’ of the mouth on that line will really help me. I’ve done that formula for a long while but i always fuss at the mouth...ahah! Thanks Sandi! And....you’ve made me realize i can go back and change a painting i don’t like instead of scrapping it. I hated a funky little lady I made earlier today...and went back and changed her hair and put polka dots and cuffs on her dress and wow...what a difference. Thanks so much for all your inspiration. You just never know what will ‘touch’ us and make sense for us. Just keep on doing these videos I ask..please! Lol.

@sandihester 3 года назад

Thank you!!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos 🙌🤗🙌! Thank you for sharing and have fun with those swatches!

@gayebrodie9664 3 года назад

Hi Sandi, You said you enjoyed painting this picture maybe the best. I definately loved the video THE BEST. I love seeing your process and setting up the still life. I get really frozen when I can't decide what to paint and assume every other artist always knows what to paint all the time! The looseness I love and seeing how things gets changed around and that it is ok to do that. Thank you so much.

@sandihester 3 года назад

Gaye, we ALL struggle around our paintings trying to figure our what to do and what's not working. It does get easier with time and I'm getting braver to not give up on a painting and to take chances. I'm THRILLED you enjoyed the video so much!!! whoohoooo!

How fun to let your imagination and thoughts lead the way, I really like how you change things if you’re not happy with them rather than panic. I love the cat and 🐊. I need to set up a still life, I may even get the children to help, it would be so funny to see what they put on the table. Maybe for fun you should ask Grady to pick items from around your home for your still life and get him to place them. Be a fun painting or sketch 🎨 ✏️

@sandihester 3 года назад

I do still feel the panic at times - or more like “ugh!!! Nothings working “ - I’m in that right now with another large painting. So I have to consciously move back into - “hey, remember - we’re suppose to be having fun!” Mode. Great idea about the kids setting up your still life. I also love the idea of grady setting up my still life! Possible future video?!?!

@watchmanonthewall77744 3 года назад

Hey Sandi--I sent a comment earlier but somehow it must have gotten lost ....so i want to say i LOVED this video ! and i LOVED that crazy painting ! ( looks sellable to me ! ) I am inspired to paint and to paint more loosely but also to THINK more loosely. I mean look at this situation ...there's a table with some bananas and binoculars but what we end up with is this nutty party with an alligator and a sneaky cat and strange heads and some leftover legs and a bird ! Holy moly ! FANTASTIC!!

Now how much fun was that? I don't know why but for some reason your painting made me think about when I was a kid, we would build colorful crazy quilt tents and the boys playing monsters would sneak up on us and scare us.

👋 Sandy. My wife is apprehensive on writing a comment on RU-vid. But I, her husband will do it for her😊. She has kinda been binge watching all your videos lately. She just found you on RU-vid. She loves all the unboxing videos. She's all like "I want that brush 🪥.I want that paint." She's an artist too. But the real reason I'm commenting is because of that Green, on your walls in your house, in that room through that door, where you are painting that still life early in the video. Do you know what the name of that Green is? She now wants me to paint her studio, or the living room, or the the whole house, IDK that color. 🤷🏽 I'm hoping just the studio. 🤣 But anyway if you know what the name of that Green is I would really appreciate you letting me know what it is. 😊 Have a nice day. 😊

@sandihester Год назад

So glad your wife is enjoying the channel!!!! Unfortunately I don’t have the name of the paint because I just mixed it up myself and don’t have a formula for it. We painted it that color like 12 years ago
