I don't know why youtube recommended a 2 year old video but I'm glad they did; this was lovely! I would love to live this lifestyle, with a cute little doggy like that. What a glorious area!
Hi Molly! I have! Although it’s a bit of a camping mess in this video haha. Thank you for watching the video, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Lewis and Harris really was amazing.
I highly recommend doing daily "Morning Pages" as recommended by Julia Cameron in her books "The Artist's Way" and "The Vein of Gold." I find that when I do my morning pages every morning, every day turns out to be a better day than without them! It helps clear my mind of whatever happened the previous day, and focus my mind on what I want for the current day. I have seen other artists (and just other people in general) doing them and feeling similarly! I enjoyed your video!
What a lovely, mindful day you had! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I am interested to see how you end up creating your next composition out of the “pieces” that you drew. Your Skye is such a cozy home away from home. ❤️
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Yes I will update you as I finally got my hands on my tracing paper and was able to do some studies with watercolour - coming soon!
Amazing, ...... so far away from our stresses of our day at work!! ..loved your video although exhausted already at 08.45 ...what a wonderful and calming way to spend a day and thankyou for sharing, would love to see your final drawing .... you are one talented, inspirational and wise lady Xxx
Aw I really enjoyed this! My friend and I bought a classic camper van to do up but it's definitely proving to be a bigger job than we anticipated! I can't wait til we get to the point where we can just go away and have everything we need. We want to decorate our interior to show off our artistic talents. I'm loving your youtube and insta!
That is simply beautiful and so glad that we actually saw you do some of your days in person! It’s a great reminder to create those moments all through my week - the walk with a mug of tea is one of my favourites that I will add to my week. I would love to add the swim in the sea but we’d have to move for that one! I am going to have a swoosh down a river later though 😁 🏊♀️Thanks for creating and sharing your talents. X
Douglas looks like a dog of character! How I would love to be alone in a lovely van with him ❤️ Interesting to hear your drawing methods too! Thanks for the video ☺️
Ughh that view looks amazing ^_^ I too take many breaks in my day and I think it's too much to constantly be painting all the time. Need a break from all the intense focusing! I wonder what our brain looks like when we are painting? I make so many decisions in the moment. Thanks for sharing your day with us! Love relaxing vlogs like these :) all the best
Love this Helen! We just got back from our epic 2000 mile road trip and we've decided IT'S VERY VERY BUSY DOWN SOUTH WITH LOTS OF CARS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE AAARGH!!🤯😂😂
Hi Helen, this is my very first visit to your channel, looking forward to more. Subscribed and liked. LOVE everything about this day in the life. Was looking for ideas, as I'm an artist about to be in a variety of camping situations briefly before settling down in a house again. I like how you kept it comfy, uncomplicated, quick & easy to do anything needed. Love from Louisiana.
I love your videos, and I totally get you, on the should have could have. It helps, when you are not identifying with your thought. Talking to your brain like to a child, with love and healthy boundaries. We are not our brain, our brain is an organ, you could say tool to live and survive. Thank you for the beauty, to put in our life's ❤️🌺
love how you put it..."turn the stress off"...change gears...thanks for a lovely day in your life!..Janis in the Yukon, Canada
Refreshing.
Hermosisimo Helen ❤, abrazos desde Málaga capital (España) 🤗🤗🤗.
Thank you Margarita!
