Art Vlog: cozy, foggy winter days. planning and process of my new painting
Here in Australia, we're in the thick of winter, so I decided to re-watch all the twilight movies this month. For a while now, I have wanted to paint something inspired by these haunting, misty aesthetic - and this July turned out to be the perfect time for it (it was unusually wet and cold).
So I wanted to bring you along on all the cozy moments and planning of this piece.❤

What a perfect week this was, fully immersed in feelings of the sea. I made some sketches and three small paintings of the merfolk, as I imagined them sprawled on these beautiful dark rocks (and I filmed as often as I remembered:) This was my first time taking my new pochade box out to paint (you can see me make it in the last video), and I couldn't be happier with it.

The level of detail & attention you gave to create this whole vibe is INCREDIBLE. Ahhh my heart is full! Do you think you would ever create a collection of art books? It would be the perfect thing to curl up with on a cozy evening.
I absolutely loooooove this video!!!! Im going to make one, thanks so much 💕🎨💕🎨
Love your paintings soo much and to get to see your creative process is such an inspiration. Thank you ❤
I love this style of painting and was looking for tutorials/videos to learn and get ispiration and this is exactly it, so thank you! You are so good, please keep doing these videos ❤😍 also, where did you learn to draw?
Firstly. OMG! Never heard of those bugs either ( I live in Perth WA) I hope it doesn’t flare up too often. Secondly, love the painting and enjoyed seeing how you put the figure in by taking photos of yourself ❤ Thirdly, yes please to a tutorial on how to edit in procreate. I’m completely computer un savvy but have been considering getting procreate to see what I can do with my own paintings.
Oh thank you!🥹 yes they’re so horrible - be sure to check your garden gloves properly, or maybe don’t leave yours outside like I did😅 I’m glad to hear it, and I’ll be sure to make an editing video soon then, and share more about my reference photo process because I do that a lot I just forget to talk about it much🍂🍃
I love your artwork and videos! I look forward to seeing them.
Oh I’m glad, thank you!♥️
I love your artwork, so beautiful! it was really cool to see how you make your own references, I think it helps translating the more exact image to what you imagined the art to look like
Thank you! And I’m glad to hear that - I think I’d like to share more of my ‘reference-translation-to-art’ process in future, as I do take a lot of my own photos these days for character poses😁
@@laveragrace yay I would love to see it! Your art inspires me a lot <3
this is so inspiring and beautiful, ive been feeling this exact type of way here in aus winter. thank you so much for this creation!!!
Ooh thank you, I’m glad to hear it! And you’re very welcome🥹🍃
You capture atmosphere beautifully what a lovely artwork love your vids 😊
Thank you so much!🥹
That turned out so beautiful!!! ❤ Thank you for the video, made my whole day !
I’m thrilled! Thank you so much🥹
OMIGOSH you Aussies and your wild bugs & spiders! I’m sorry you got bitten-so strange that it comes back at random times. I wonder if you were to take a Benadryl (I think you can take 2) to rest more at night. It’ll calm down the bite/swelling and make you drowsy. Don’t know if you have Benadryl down there. I hope by now it is gone! Wonderful drawing-loved seeing your planning & photography phases leading up to the artwork. THANKS HEAPS!
Ah yes the horrible bugs, this was by far the worst😅 and thank you! I try not to take any medication unless very necessary, but I will keep this in mind now🍃 I’m glad you enjoyed the video, thank you for watching!😊
Also, congratulations for 3k subscribers!! 🤗🌸✨
Thank you!!😁🍃🌷
I love your videos and your art (video is also art tbh) so much. 🥰 Going over how you edit your work on procreate would be very interesting. This is something I often struggle with. xo
Oh thank you!🥹 righto, I’ll be sure to make an editing video sometime soon🍂
I’d be interested in any videos you would do on using procreate for compositions and editing. Love your artwork!
Thanks so much! Okee dokee, I’ll be sure to make one soon!😊
I very much enjoyed your video and the story telling. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching! I’m so glad you enjoyed it😊
Beautiful ✨💛 well done, absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks so much!♥️🍃
I don’t personally find the twilight saga remotely eerie or unsettling in the aesthetics, but i adore the painting and the fact it inspired this painting means i will give the saga some credit lol. Eerie, unsettling, haunting, dark art, especially captured in a landscape is the best type of art for me. Great video
Ah yes totally understandable. Now that I think of it, something more like angsty might be a better word😅 I think a lot of the eerie whimsical vibes come from my own interpretation of the places and colours etc. but thanks so much, lovely to hear!😊
Awesome - sorry who was the artist that you mentioned that inspired you?
Thanks! Ida Rentoul😊
I’m not sure what kind of eraser you’re using at this point in the video, but I stopped using kneaded erasers on WC paper and now use only the white Staedtler Mars plastic erasers. I use Arches cold press. Now, my Dad, 88, swears by the pink Pearl eraser, but I find it leaves a wee bit of pink on the paper.
❤❤❤
Lovely video! ❤ I, too, love inking (since the 1970s when my Dad gave me a set of Rapidograph pens) and water coloring in the lines. Every once in a while I do a painting with no ink and I miss the process cass of the inking a much! I figure it’s good for me once in a while to show myself I can do it. Also I have a little orange tabby who looks SOOO much like yours. Her name is Sonsie. Hope you’re having a good year. Happy to have found your channel.
Music is annoying....
Hi Lavera, I've only just seen your video and I think the idea of weaving the hat is fantastic! Could you perhaps explain in more detail how it works with the cardboard and the division? I would love to try this too. By the way, I love your style of drawing. Thank you very much 👍🥰
You’re videos and art are so enchanting and beautiful 💕
Lovley <3
Excited to make this palette with my Bob Ross tin😊👍
I respect folklore. It is part of who we are. 🎉😊
I discovered this poem through Loreena McKennit’s song, and it’s one of my favorite poems. Your painting really does it justice, it is so beautiful.
Beautiful work! those tiny faces blow my mind with the level of detailing you achieved!
i love your magical fairy paintings! beautiful and relaxing video, although the volume seemed a bit low at times
This an amazing artwork. Your voice is very soothing. Have a lovely day :)
I support your genuine feelings concerning your art. This is natural continue to go with the flow of all that you feel to accomplish. Enjoy your journey😊
Very beautiful your make colors paint in little box. I like Good idea. ❤️
A beautiful peace of art! The idea of combining painting and poetry with reenactment b-rall is inspired!
I love you story and I like your picture too it's beautiful just like you
Just lovely, I enjoyed watching you painting develop and listening to you recite the poem. Thank you.
All I can ever see in my brain with this poem is Anne Shirley floating away in her sinking boat. This is a gorgeous work of art.
Thanks so much😊 Oh yes! -or at the beginning of the film walking through the trees, reciting dreamily to herself 🍂
just stunning and inspiring
just found you - brilliant
Thanks!
Beautiful painting! ❤ The poem of course reminds me of Anne of Green Gables… heh
Thank you! Oh yes, Anne is very much in love with this poem🥰
So beautiful ❤ I just subscribed 🎉
Thank you so much!♥️
And what an artist you are dear ❤❤
Oh thank you♥️
Gorgeous as always and I love this new format with the poem, art of the process ❤
Ohh thank you, I was really stuck on this idea of a simple poem recital as I paint🥰
i gasped when i saw the painting on instagram today!! i've been weirdly into the lady of shallott lately (just purchased a perfume inspired by her and have been listening to the loreena mckennitt song lol) so seeing this felt very auspicious lol. i need to buy the print on my next paycheck!! 💕
Ohh thank you so much🥹and what wonderful timing! I’ve also been dwelling on this topic for a while now, and reading the poem over again-to make sure I didn’t miss any key details for the painting🌾💐
I’ve watched several of your videos now- your figures and compositions are exceptional. Thank you for sharing your ideas. RE: the paper stretching, I have tried doing this and been pretty miserable with it. but I’ve been getting the paper very wet-dunking in a bathtub for 2-3 minutes, removing, and then taping down. With a large piece of paper, it’s miserable. But I did not use the tape you did, so Im going to try it your way-just sponging generously and then using the water-activated tape. I’ll keep you posted!
I wish I could give this two upvotes.
😊
One of my favorite poems and the subject of many paintings. Your reading and watercolor combined are so exquisite. I love the water moving and creating a ring of motion around the small boat. The use of desaturated colors forming this circle, almost a halo of muted colors, underscores the haunted and romantic tragedy of the Lady’s inevitable demise. One suggestion…a longer pause at the end so that I can REALLY SEE your finished work as your paintings deserve time to be appreciated, not only for your skill but for the beauty of the finished work. Thank you so very much. I look forward to seeing and listening to your next subject. Wonderful to enjoy this first thing in the morning.
Ohh thank you for the lovely words, I am flattered🥹 the water took me a while to figure out, so I’m glad to hear some good feedback on it! And gotcha, I’ll try to leave a longer pause at the end of the work next time ( it’s funny, I actually felt like it was too long this time- because I needed more shots to fill up the poem’s length😂 and was scrambling to find more footage)
@@laveragrace footage of your work is a splendid way to fill what may feel like long gaps. Your work holds the viewers attention.
I listened to this three times while knitting. I had never heard it read before, and had never read it myself. Wonderful job, you! The painting is absolutely beautiful.😻
Ohh lovely, what a wonderful vibe!🥹 And thank you so much!💐🌾
Do you by any chance listen to Loreenna Mckennitt? I love her song rendition of this poem. Your illustration turned out so beautiful!
Thanks so much!🌾 Ah yes I have heard her Lady of Shalott song, very atmospheric😊
❤❤
