Hello from Argentina, my name is Mercedes you left me speechless with the thing we could see. I use art like therapy, rewarding hours of work. Nobody knows my work, I have sold some works, but I don't have a studio, jut paint in my living room but with the idea of putting together a page and hoping that someone discovers me.
Hello Mercedes! Thank you so much for introducing yourself. I am wishing you the best of luck 💪❤
Please don't spend any time waiting to be discovered. I did this for years. You have to be proactive in getting your work out there and seen as much as possible.
Your space it beautiful Jess!😍
Why thank you! ✨
you created such a soothing and peaceful space- so inspiring! really enjoyed watching it come together.
Thank you so much for the lovely compliment ✨
I have been on the fence about these pencils for weeks- thanks for the "sign" I should go ahead and jump on them - so nice to see them in. use.
Oh yes I highly recommend them!
Thank you for sharing your studio, I am loving it. I also love plants and crystals, art supplies and good energies. What a wonderful space! You have inspired me to clean and reorganize my studio into more of a zen space. Thank you! Have a wonderful day! Looking forward to more of your videos :)
Oh thank you so much! I have to inspire myself to organize too by making videos about it 😉
Lovely, thank you for sharing. Crystal & 🌱🪴🌻

Hola muy agradable tú espacio para pintar 🖍️. Creo que es muy importante para poder enfocarse y pintar con felicidad. Soy principiante en acuarela y lo disfruto enormemente. Estoy aprendiendo y pintando varias cosas lo cual me alegra mucho mucho. Me sentía insegura de poder hacerlo y ahora me doy cuenta que si puedo.me está ayudando el ver videos de diferentes artistas como tú. Y voy a iniciar un curso con Domestika. Muchas gracias por compartir.
love your studio space lovely and clean and aesthetic, love your calm voice too, new subscriber here l look forward to follow your new journey ☺
Welcome! Thank you so much for saying hello and for your lovely comment 🥰 We’ll see what unfolds in this chapter ✨
I am enjoying watching you put your studio together!! Can you share with me, how you hung your shelves?! Thank you!
Love your vids and glad you are returning to fulltime art! p.s. where did you get that cute overall?
Waw i just Found you. This was so soothing. You're voice, the editing, the aesthetic, etc. Suscribed and liked. Love to see your journey.
Thank you so much for saying hello 🥰
TikTok brought me here. Although you have clearly been on TH-cam for a while, it is great to find you at the beginning of a new chapter. I’m trying to work out how to balance my part time job and my art practise and your videos help to provide some focus. I look forward to seeing how your business progresses.
Thank you so much for saying hello and best of luck in finding balance… I feel like that is my question every day on this path 😌 it is always changing.
Really amazing and nice
Thank you for sharing your setup. I am in the process of building out my studio too! Can I ask what you used as a stand for the butcher blocks?
I used the base of an existing desk that I had for the L shape, then for the long end I used the Alex drawers as the base
Великолепно! Вы являетесь примером для меня. Это видео очень меня вдохновило. Благодарю!
So glad I found your channel, I’m also getting back into art and your video inspired me so much!😍 where do you edit your short videos?!
Thank you much! And yes to getting back into art 🎉 I use Temply and it has made video editing a lot more enjoyable actually 🤓
@@studioxjess Definitely going to try it out 🙌🏻 Thank you for your response and I will see you around here!! 🥰
💚
So happy you are back and posting art videos again. 🎉 Really joyous.
Might I ask what the long point on the pastel pencils and colored pencils offers? I’m aware many sharpen their tools like this yet I’ve never known what advantage there is to it.
Thank you!
Thank you so much! The long tip mostly means that you can get side angles for shading that you can’t achieve with a shorter tip… it also looks really cool 🤓
Bonjour de France très beau votre studio il respire la douceur.
Gorgeous studio space Jess (-: Marion 🎉
Thank you so much Marion ☺️
Hi! Thank you so much for sharing this with the world. :) Looooove your set up -- where did you get your drawers and the tempered glass? I could really use the same as an artist myself!
Oh, thank you! The tempered glass is from a table I had that I took apart :D and the drawers are Alex drawers from Ikea (so handy). One new and one that my partner found on Craigslist
First time follower. I’m also an artist but it’s rare that I paint because I have a full time job and because of that idk how to answer all the questions”who what where when how and why” with my hobby. I need to have a schedule or routine, idk how to “exercise” my art muscles lol. What is the ur routine like? What do you do for inspiration when you have a block besides looking for ideas online or in person? What makes you start in your art work? Do you reward yourself for accomplishing anything in your studio?
Welcome! I recommend allowing yourself to embrace exactly where you are, create for the joy of creation and see what type of things emerge. My schedule and routine changes from season to season… and sometimes week to week! But some artists have really planned out daily routines so it depends on what works for your creative process and your life right now. ✨
💖💖💖
Congratulations on your new studio. It is beautiful and so peaceful. This is my dream to have a studio to do my art. My art supplies are all over the house also. Having the art supplies not in one place deters me from doing it. It is so much trouble getting everything together I lose interest.
Thank you, and so true!
Beautiful
Ahhh am always so happy to catch up on your videos Jess. And I have I have to ask, what was that app you were using at 7:33 in your video? it looked very interesting. Anyway, back to watching... :D
Oh hello ❤ it is Temply! I love it, I use it for shorts… it is not free, but has made the experience much more enjoyable for me
Hello Jess so happy you are back! :) May I ask what kind of paper you used with those pastel pencils in the video? Thank you:)
Thank you, good to be back! And yes, my paper of choice is Strathmore mixed media. I’ve tried Bristol board too, but the surface is too smooth I think.
Love your studio and your jumper! Yes! Great vibe in your place. How does one sharpen colored pencils so long??? 😊
Why thank you! I use a pencil sharpener called Afmat, I highly recommend. 🤓
The video came out lovely, I wish my videos looked that nice. I hope you enjoy being a full time artist.🎉
Thank you!
Rad. ❤❤
Oh Jess welcome welcome! You were one of the first artists I watched in YT, that made me have urge to develop my own artistic practice. Your video was suggested to me and I didn’t recognize you at first, but then I started hearing your voice and I was like hhheeeyyy I know you!! So so happy to have found your videos again. You have always inspired me so much. Your studio is growing beautifully! Lots of hugs from Portugal
Hello! Oh your comment made my morning 🥰 thank you so much for telling me that, I am so happy to be back!
Beautiful studio! I’m curious about what sharpener you use to get your pencils that sharp…
It is called an Afmat, I made a little short about it if you want to see it in action 🤓
Your studio is beautiful. What is that glass tile, thingie you put on your table? 2:38
Thank you! That is tempered glass (from another table actually) it is so handy, you can just scrape paint right off of it!
@@studioxjess thank you! I just ordered one… hopefully it gets to me in one piece. 🙏
Hi jess! Love your work, and I have some music that would be great for your videos! lmk what you think :)
Which pencil sharpener do you use for the pastels?
I use an Afmat sharpener, I made a little short about it recently in case you want to see it in action 🤓
@@studioxjess thanks
How do you sustain yourself financially? Only from art or other resources?
Only art and multiple art income streams, passive income is very helpful
Where can you purchase your pieces?
For originals you can contact me directly and you can purchase reproductions on my website/Etsy or West Elm, Pottery Barn, Four Hands and such.
Do you make more money off your art or TH-cam?
I make about 5% of my income from TH-cam (fluctuates depending on how engaged I am with it). I have always made almost all of my income from art and I like it that way bc it keeps it as the priority
Thanks for posting :) You have inspired me to start mine! Here's a vlog about a day of an nomadic artist who just starts her journey in a new place:
