Your piece is absolutely stunning and expresses the chaos very well! I wish you great success with the auction, praying for the Ukrainian people and bless all of those who are giving them refuge and helping them, also those brave men and women who have joined them in the fight to protect their country!❤️🙏🏼🇺🇦
I just found this video this evening and really appreciated your narrative, both from a compassionate and artistic perspective. I remember feeling exactly this way as war broke out in Ukraine. The sense of helplessness and urgency to act all at the same time felt overwhelming and art always provides a means of escaping / processing / releasing such discordant emotions. From an artistic point of view, hearing you verbalise your thoughts as you doodle has also added a whole new dimension to my own doodling process, so thank you for sharing. You have definitely given me much food for thought. As an aside, I also really enjoyed watching you doodle along to Miles Davis, and spent a very happy morning yesterday listening to a variety of music and doodling along in flow. A wonderful exercise. I shall use it again - meditation with a pen. Lovely.
This ist a great idea Sandy to raise funds for Ukraine with these beautiful artworks. I have also donated money and with my friends and neighbors we are collecting clothes, cosmetics and toys for these poor, brave people. Well over ten thousend refugees have already arrived here in Germany and they can really use it. It's at least a little bit help and support that we can give.
Sandy you do a lot to make this world better. You create a beautiful, quiet, calm place for so many people who seek and need it with your artistic talent. A restful place for my mind to settle for a little while. Thank you for sharing your talent.
The painting is almost as beautiful as your heart! Been praying for Ukraine every day. Have a friend who is with MANNA and they have several groups there helping orphans. She gives updates almost every day on her fb page. It's all so scary. Thank you for doing this fundraiser.
Are the large black areas waterproof ink or paint? My video skips and I can’t find your reference. You make this look like so much fun…but obviously your great talent surfaces beautifully! Thanx!
Oh Sandy, I love your heart and the perspective you have shown in this beautiful art. I really enjoy when you talk about your thoughts and views during your creative process. Thank you so, so much for your contribution and instructions! ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you! I love this approach. I have so many reference photos of flower beds and I want to paint them, but the details make it too fussy and controlled and I want to convey the wild free-ness. I think I'll try this approach instead! Just what I needed to learn today.
As you were talking about your desire to run into the middle of a battlefield screaming, I thought "yes... even seasoned soldiers should fear angry middle aged women." Let's go!!
I came back to rewatch this 6 mos later, has it really been this long? I’ve picked up doodling again. I love using inks can’t find my watercolors wondering if I could use inks.
Sandy, what made you choose DeAtramentis Document Black ink rather than Platinum Carbon Black? Is it because the Carbon Black can be shiney in thick places?
Wonderful!❤️❤️❤️❤️
A series on this approach would be AWESOME!
Beautiful painting and your heart! Thank you! ❤️💔🙏🏻🌻🇺🇦
So very nice to see you Sandy. You're the best. Anna 🌈 from Columbia SC.
This is unbelievably beautiful Sandy! Moving and inspiring! ❤️
You have a wonderful mind and philosophy in life! It blossoms in your creative masterpieces! Thanks for sharing your talent and ‘GLOW’!
I’ve watched this many times and it gets more magical each time love your art
This is really amazing. The longer I looked at it, the more that I felt like it was love (flowers) holding firm against the winds of chaos.
❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful work. Love the doodling and color.
You are a wonderful encourager and inspiring artist. I love that you are doing the Lords work.
God bless you.
Stunningly beautiful!

Love this! Thank you for sharing. You're such an inspiration! I just ordered that fountain pen...wish me luck lol!
Beautiful, and so much fun watching you create. I’m giving to World Central Kitchen to help feed the refugees. Thanks for sharing and caring.
I love this!
Jose Andres World Kitchen is a source to donate food. I congratulate your effects and insights!

I love this so much! Beautiful!
Thank you!
I absolutely love that painting! It is incredibly powerful. Love what you're doing with the auction.
Amazing! Thank you 🙏
To me this painting shows hope and renewal coming forth in the midst of darkness. I love it. Thank you for sharing this Sandy.
I would sell prints of it as well. Mostly cause I want to make cards out of one. So pretty!
Prayers for Ukraine. Gorgeous work as always.
Love that popcorn flower this whole doodle is amazing!!

This piece is absolutely stunning, Sandy. I love the granulation in some areas and the different edges. Amazing.

Awesome!
DITTO on all you said. Love this piece. It's so beautiful. You really make me feel like trying a doodle. Oh & I bought a fluid writer & gold ink.
Beautiful work Sandy💞
Beautiful piece of art!

I’ve seen grandmas and grandpas with rifles….let’s join em! 🇺🇦❤️
I came back to rewatch this 6 mos later, has it really been this long? I’ve picked up doodling again. I love using inks can’t find my watercolors wondering if I could use inks.
Love this 🙏 I’m wondering what tip size you prefer on the TWSBI ECO Fountain Pen?
For this big one a medium nib. But most doodles are my fine nib.
So beautiful. Is there another pen u could recommend that isn’t this expensive. If not it’s ok.
You don't need fancy pens to get started. A Micron pen will do. They come in many widths.
You can doodle in any pen-if you’re doodling over dry paper it doesn’t even harvest to be waterproof! (I’ve used ballpoint pens!)🥰
Sandy, what made you choose DeAtramentis Document Black ink rather than Platinum Carbon Black? Is it because the Carbon Black can be shiney in thick places?
It’s because that was what was on my desk to play with 🥰

Please keep politics out of this your art work is exceptional but the news tells everything please
Free speech allows me to talk about things I care about. 🥰 I love living in America for that reason.
