It really is. I’ve heard it takes 2-5 years to recover from burnout, and, at the point, I fully believe it. Sending you so much goodness as you navigate this transition.

Thank you, JK! I was really hoping to foster that balance. I appreciate your feedback and would love to hear any insights it might bring up for you! I’m really working to take my power back in *all* the ways!☺️

Dani, I love this so much!😂 I have also been known to do that- the time and state of being has also changed a bit over the years! Lol! Tell your people you love them! I’m so glad you like it. I’ve got some troubleshooting to do and then it will be ready to be shared! And, don’t worry. There will be more lives! I really enjoyed it! Was super nervous for the first half and then eased into it. It’s good to do new things! I appreciate you so much!❤️

@@AlexisViele ♥️♥️♥️

I’d love to hear what you think once you get into it. I was so Not into it for so long. But something just hit me and I decided it was time. I’m not mad about it!

I’m so glad you’re here! Has your experience been similar?

Thank you!😂 Being raised by women who were *always* dyeing their hair to cover theirs, I knew I’d never want that rigamarole!

I *really* loved that distinction! It's truly incredible how accurately naming emotions can help us to take our power back!

Thank you. I’ve really enjoyed all that’s come up through the work!

Thank you for being here! We are going to make it all the through… So close now!

Thank you! I appreciate you spending your time with me!☺️

Thank you so much! It was such a joy to create!

Always so glad to see you here! Thank you for spending your time with me. It was a solid week full of so many things. I'm truly so thrilled with how the commission turned out. I hope you are well!

I’m so glad to hear this! I was so skeptical, but I’m really enjoying it at this point! ✨

So many possibilities!

😂 I don’t need it. I’m excellent when the wall edges are straight.

I love this. They may not all resonate, but I do think there’s something to sitting with them to see if and where resistance exists. Good luck! I’m excited for you to do this!

I love this so much for you! I’m really excited for all that’s to come and the greater clarity on what I want to do to get there.☺️

Thank you so much for giving it a watch and for spending a bit of time with me. I truly appreciate it!

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words.☺️

Thank you so much for being here. I truly appreciate it! I have not, but I am adding it to my Bookworm app right now. I’d love to hear your thoughts on The Artist’s Way once you get going!

Thank you for your kind words. I’m truly so glad you’re here! I think you’re definitely onto something. What makes a practice sustainable is finding a way to make it work best for you! We are all so different. I usually do mine between 11am and 1pm but sometimes I squeeze them in at lunch!

Yes I think consistency and routine is the way forward for me. I’m glad you’re here too.

Oh, I am so thrilled to hear this! I’ve been so pleasantly surprised and encouraged by this work. Cheers to carving our paths as creatives!

Hi Sarah! Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the updates and are a part of our community here!☺️✨✨

Thank you so much for your kind words! I truly appreciate it. Teaching really is a *thing*! I am incredibly thankful for all that I learned during my time in the classroom, and so thankful to be out. I hope your friends have found their feet and are enjoying life on the other side!

Indeed! I should have thought about it more before just jumping into it

I’m so sorry you’ve been there as well. There are a lot of us! I hope you’ve found a solid place on the other side.

The gold ones in the living room?? I love them so much😂 They we’re my splurge from West Elm!

​@@AlexisViele the paper lighting one :D

I got you! The one in the kitchen is Ikea. The Big one in the office I think is Amazon!

You’re right. I will do a tour soon! I showed each room as it was finished, and I now realize how many people would like a proper tour. Getting to it soon

I did. They are very small and narrow so they were panned shots. But, at the end of each room I showed the finished product. I’ll do a tour soon!

I’ve been wanting to play around more with gouache! But, you’re 100% correct. Might be a reason to have some fun *making* it work! I’m into it!☺️

Thanks for watching! I truly appreciate your feedback.

Hi! My shop link is in the description. It’s www.AlexisViele.com Please let me know if I can help in any other way!

Thank you so much! I truly appreciate your kind words!

Absolutely. I should have planned better for sure!

Thank you so much! I really was questioning everything by the time I got to painting the office 😂 So glad to have done it and glad it’s done!

Yes! I most definitely should have thought it out better😂

Yes! Thank you so much. I really should have thought more about it before I jumped in. I really underestimated how far it would spread. 😂

Yes. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you’re here!❤️

@@AlexisViele I stayed up past my bedtime watching your videos. Oh how I would love to be a full-time artist!...

@@wendibrandner7583 I appreciate you so much! It’s absolutely a dream come true. And, a lot more “business” than I anticipated 😂❤️

Thank you! Definitely worth the work, even if it had me cross eyed😂

Thank you! It *was* exhausting 😂 By the time I got to the office I was dragging! But, I’m so glad it’s done.☺️

Thank you so much! And, that’s really interesting. I never knew that about the greens, but it makes sense! We saved up for a min to get all the paint- in the middle of a big life transition, but really wanting a new space to grow in and with. Thankfully we could get most of it for less than $40 a gallon. Your Victorian windows sound so dreamy. I dream of more, Big windows. I’d love more space for more plants!😂

@@AlexisViele yes, I missed those big ceiling to floor windows when we moved into an apartment a relative had just redone. And my beautiful Wandering Jew plants died because we moved in early December and lost our Eastern exposure. Our new windows were tiny in comparison! This was 46 years ago, lol. But I can still see that apartment.

Oh! I’ll have to get on that for sure! There are a *couple* of small things I’d like to do first but it’s on my list!

@@AlexisViele Good to know thank you

Very smart! I really should have thought about it a bit more before diving right in. Thank you so much. I’m so glad you’re here!

Hahahahha. A constant state of underconsumption and releasing what is not needed for sure! Space is a premium!

Hi! I’ve been in this apartment since 2011 and have been in the city since 2008! Definitely feel very lucky to have had such a long standing home in what can be such a transient city. Are you still in the city?

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I’m heartened to hear your mam came out better and happier on the other side! So much to be thankful for and so much to hope for.❤️

Thank you for being here! ☺️ I truly appreciate your kind words. Thanks for watching the video and for letting me know what you think!

Yes! It feels so good in here! It went through a bit of an identity crisis 2020-2024😂😂

Thank you! It was fun! And, I was ready for something a bit different 😂
