- In this video I try a unique method to make acrylic paint matte (watch to see if it works), show side by side examples of acrylic paint versus Flashe paint, and try to merge new and old ways of painting.

I absolutely loved watching the real time process! All the decision-making process, silence, looking in the mirror, air drawing and mark making sounds! And the paintings are so beautiful and inspiring! Love them! Thank you for sharing your art and your process!
I really really enjoy watching you painting, drawing and colouring. It's inspiring, relaxing and a true mindfulness exercise. Thanks as always Sandi!
Thank you so much for sharing your process and how you work through a painting. You are the best teacher I ever had just because you are you!!!
Wow, thank you!
I was so relieved when you decided to take out the chair in front of the lion in the last painting 😆. Anyway love your process it makes me feel so much bolder to take the journey and enjoy the process not just work for an end product. Thank you. 💜
All the animals! Lion, tiger, dog, cat.... Good times! Well done, as always.
Thanks baby - sorry it put you in a coma 😂. You’re a trooper for watching these art videos ❤️
I LOVE the lion in the last painting you shared your progress on (the flash paint one), and the ghostly lady in the background...so good!
Thank you! I have a feeling the ghostly lady will be showing up more and more. Thank you for your kind comment!
It such a pleasure to visit you in your studio once again and experiencing your thought process is magic. I recently watched two documentaries on you-tube “When Pablo became Picasso”, and “Matisse meets Picasso” The history of moving away from realistic art is so fascinating. If you havent seen it yet I can highly recommend.
Best. Painting. Ever.
REALLY?!?! THANK YOU!!!
Please keep your “air drawing” in your videos. It allows us see what your are thinking. Your paintings are so whimsical and vibrant...they remind me of Matisse paintings but better!! I’m looking forward to the Flashe paint video...I already bought a few jars!!!😊 Thank you for sharing your love of creating!
Oh Gracie - thank you for that feedback!!! I really really appreciate it! You are too kind about my work! And hip hip hooray for the Flashe paint - have you tried them yet??????
Yes, I tried them but I did not spend a lot of time playing with them. Work (teach art) and life always seem to get in the way of making my own art! Also, have you tried a matte varnish to lessen the shine for your acrylic painting? One more thing...😬 I was watching a video of you making your own sauerkraut or was it coleslaw?? Do you have a recipe for it? Thanks so much!!!☺️💕
It was such a pleasure to visit you in your studio once again, also experiencing your thought process is magic. I recently watched two documentaries on you-tube “When Pablo became Picasso”, and “Matisse meets Picasso” The history of moving away from realistic art is so fascinating and if you have not seen it yet , I can highly recommend it.
@@gracied7379 I usually don’t like matte varnish in anything because it has more of a “cloudy” look to it and I don’t like that. I think I may have put a link to where I got the recipe in the description. If not, just search it on TH-cam - lots of helpful videos on there.
@@CHCHNZ461 I’ll check it out! Thank you!
Soo exciting to watch! Thank you! More fun than swatches
Best yet!
I can't help but smile on my face when I see your lions. Loving this series of paintings!! ❤️
I'm glad they make you smile Karen - they make me smile too!
I just wanted to once again say that I love your videos. They are so chill and homey and just being. It's very relaxing and always makes me want to play with my art supplies. Your videos just really lift my mood and gave me a happy place to exist for a couple of minutes, especially on days when I feel discouraged. Thanks for making and sharing these videos. They are one of the best things.
Maria, thank you so much for your kind words and for taking time to let me know you're enjoying the videos - I really appreciate it!
Love the painting and the green ghostly woman with the plug is also my fave part!!
Julie you’re the only one who’s said something about the plug 😂. So glad you like it too! Grady’s eyed bulge out when I say stuff like “I really like that plug” 😂😂😂. Guess there are a few of “us” out there 😂❤️
I have to confess....I like the shiny one. Probably because it was just ever so mildly shiny.
That lion remind me about moomins tigers😊love it🥰
Really loved watching this and hearing you talk through your process. Super inspiring how free and experimental you are with your compositions and just pumping them out like no bodies business!! I love the risk taking and unexpected moments in your work Sandi.
Also laughing so hard at the bottle/jar collecting. My own man literally just rousing on me this arvo “why do we need to keep another jar?!?” 😂
Katherine I'm soooooo glad you liked and and enjoy seeing the process - I never know how much or how long to show - I don't want to bore you guys! AND what's up with our men - don't they know we need 50 million jars! Get with the program men!
Nice colors!
I loved the video. It was interesting to see the change and development from your first painting and then the future paintings referencing that. The Flash paint painting just gave off super happy vibes, cheeryness in dollops I love it. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Gaye - I’m SO glad you liked it! Thanks for taking time to let me know! ❤️
Thank you! I really enjoy watching you paint and especially the commentary of your process. Always inspiring and colorful. 🙂⭐️
Thank you so much Jasper!! I really appreciate you watching AND letting me know you enjoyed it!!!!! THANK YOU!
Love it all Sandi! Your studio is so beautiful. Your paintings are so joyful. Thank you for sharing.
SOOOOO glad you enjoyed it Dana - thank you for taking time to let me know!
this was/is wonderful Sandi. I'll watch it again. i actually loved the quiet parts. kind of mesmerizing. helpful, inspiring , fun --and all the other things you hoped it would be. thank you !
REALLY Judy?!?! Oh man, I'm so glad to hear you liked the quiet parts! They put Grady into a coma - maybe he was mesmerized into it :)!!! I'll ask him! Thanks for taking time to comment and let me know what you thought of the video - I really appreciate it!
Always inspiering😍🌈🍭💝
Thank you 🤗
Sandi just finding you. I am absolutely JELLY over your studio! Its amazing! I had to downsize when we moved to a much smaller house and while mine is still lovely its so tiny! Love your work! It's very whimsical and fun :)
So glad to have you here Nichole! Thank you so much! ❤️
Yes loved it you always are honest and don't pretend to be anything other than human and thanks for paint knowledge I don't think I will be able to get golden brand here in Australia I have had trouble ordering from America
Thank you so much and take care guys .
you inspire me ... you have made me enjoy my artistic work more!!..
Oh man, that makes me so happy to hear! Thanks for taking time to tell me that!
What a stunning studio
Thank you so much!
I enjoyed the individual cherries on the table for the painting that you critiqued. Fun video!
Thank you Stacy - the cherries were fun to paint!
Awesome video
Thank you ,love to see your process.
I’m soooo glad to hear that Veronica! I was nervous about this one since I had so much process and silence.
Thanks Sandi! I really enjoyed this video and have tried a couple of techniques. I have been gessoing ( is that a word 😂) out parts of my previous paintings that haven’t quite been working and painting over. Again thanks for your generosity that reaches all the way to the other side of the world! 😁🌞
Oh I’m so glad! I’m not sure if it’s a word to everyone but it is to me 😂. Thanks so much for watching and for leaving a kind comment!
Thank you a Sandy, your artwork and personality are a breath of fresh air. I was having a Covid wobble day today, worry about everything and getting upset, but this video has just cheered me up, thank you. I’m going to binge watch all your other ones now, even though I’ve seen them all before 😂
Oh my Carol - goodness, I can't believe a video of mine could help a Covid wobble day but man alive am I glad I was able to help a little - thank you for taking time to tell me this! AND - whooooohoooo - round 2 of binge watching THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@sandihester it’s all true sandi, the world needs more people like you 🤗
You're too sweet Carol!!!
I love this fun painting!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Try Acryla Gouache it's the best of both Acrylic and Gouache and it's matt!! I love it! Holbein is the best!!
Thanks!
All that colour madee so 😊
soooooo glad!
Loved this, as always! You've inspired me to: 1) Try flashe paint - I ordered a few jars and have discovered I really like the feel of them - sort of like acrylic and gouache had a baby. 2) Use my own older paintings (one of them is probably 28 years old 😳) as references - I hadn't done that in awhile and I'm loving it. 3) Take a more of a playful approach to my painting. Thank YOU!
Well goodness gracious Laura - I can't believe you've implemented ALL those things and found inspiration and value from them - whooohooo!!! Man, I sure do appreciate you taking time to let me know! I think the way you describe the Flashe paint is dead on! Thanks again Laura!
I just found you and I have spent the entire day with you♥️🤓
Awe - thank you Caren! And WELCOME!
Yes there is a pigment saturation difference between two types of paints
Sandi, do you live on a stream? The sound of water trickling? Your studio sounds so peaceful.
I air draw too :) Good stuff !!!
It’s so weird how it helps - but it does!
Clever girl
Do you ever have problems with the cats up on your studio work tables? I only have 3 dogs but their hair gets in the air. Love them so a bit of floating hair is just real life ☺️
I don’t have a problem with that. They don’t get on our tables or counters
The paper -- how do you mount on board? What is name of paper? Weight? What is the name of board to mount paper on? And what adhesive do you use? How do you had wire to back? PS Love your whimsy and colors!
It’s just a large pad of paper - Canson XL watercolor
Love your work. I am not feeling the lion. He is so big and dominates the work too much for me. Also I think I have seen him in lots of other artists work like the typical storybook lion. Yes its too busy for me also. Nice rug. I really loved the work you showed at the beginning.
More fun than should be LEGAL?!?!
What do you do with all your paintings that you put on paper? Interesting process. Thanks for sharing
The ones that are in the sketchbook or just mine to keep. But the ones on loose paper I do sell.
@@sandihester Do you ever copy your art into prints?
Muito bonito
Revisiting the days we actually got to see you paint for free 😢
Would a matte varnish help knock down the shine on acrylic paint?
What brand colored pencils do you use, they look so soft.
All different types. But here I think I was using polycromos. I link supplies I use in the description
I forgot to say that I have a purple pair of glasses that are almost exactly the same shape as yours. Just thought that was cool.
Ohhhhhh, I'd love some purple ones!!!
Hi, Sandi! I "discovered"you a few days ago and I'm loving your paintings and videos. It's been amazing to go along with your processes of creating pieces of art. Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the flash paint? Thanks for the video.
Hey Lilian!!! So glad to have you here!!!! I'm really glad you are enjoying the channel - thank you so much for taking time to let me know. You're not ignorant at all - most people have no idea what flashe paint is - it's a french made paint that is vinyl - it's got an amazing consistency and dries very matte. I'm going to be doing a WHOLE video on it soon!
@@sandihester Thank you for answering, Sandi. I also draw and paint, but I don't consider myself an artist because I don't think I have technique. The glow of acrylic has always bothered me too, but I didn't know an alternative. Another thing I'm thinking about changing is the support. I paint on canvas, but I think the paper makes the process more dynamic. Which paper do you use? Do you need to prepare the paper? Looking forward to the next videos. I'm also following you in the instagram. Kisses!
There is a great alternative to the shiny acrylic - I'm actually going to start talking about it in my next video and then will show me using it in the following video - it's Golden's matte acrylic and I'M LOVING IT!!! I think painting on paper is great - it's cheap, it's easy to prepare, it's easy to ship if someone wants to buy it and you feel less stressed about what you are creating because, heck, it's just 1 piece of paper! If you're using oil or oil pastels (really oily ones - not the ones that are more like wax) you do need to gesso it but for anything else (acrylic, watercolor, gouache) you don't have to! as far as paper you just need to experiment. You need to decide if you like smooth or something textured - copy paper won't work but something with a little weight to it would be good - you don't have to get something crazy thick unless that's what you like. I share stuff like this through my videos so as you're watching you'll probably pick up stuff here and there. Hope that helps!
@@sandihester Yes, it helped a lot. I couldn't agree with you more about the weight of painting on canvas, especially the psychological weight. I'm exactly going through this and I was even thinking about giving up painting, but finding you made me see that this matter of painting can and should be lighter and more playful. I think I will migrate to paper. Thanks again!
Let me know how it goes! And Lilian, in case you haven't heard me say this already - make enjoying the process your top priority!
Amazing and inspiring as always ❤️ your art is so beautiful and unique ... and Sandi, just a question 😂 what toned tan sketchbook are you using in the vlog? 😁 xo
Its a strathmore toned gray 9x12 sketchbook
@@sandihester Thank You so much ❤️
