Oh yes Helen, please do a small video of the camping setup of your car camper. Definitely looks & sounds like a great fun camping & painting adventure. This is a beautiful painting & your updated photograph with new glasses 👓 is gorgeous too. Thanks so much for sharing this great video!
Ditto!
Thanks ever so much! I will do!
Yes! Car camp set-up video
“Scariness of the blank paper”
I love Helen. Btw Helen your gorgeous.
You're very kind, thanks!
One of the gifts you give us with your videos is the *pleasure* of making art for the sake of art. Thank you for giving us a face to go with your entrancing voice. And YES, I'd love to see your camper set-up!
That's so lovely - thank you!!
Yes please show us your car camping setup!
Love your loose landscapes Helen ❤ And your camper van looks so cosy amidst horrible soggy weather outside☺️
Thanks! I love being in there so much, and the rubbish weather doesn't seem to make much difference to that!
Lovely to put a face to your voice Helen. I love all your loose sketches. I think I’m going to get my landy ready for some car camping this summer so I’d love to see your setup ❤
Thanks! Hope you have a load of fun! It feels so liberating knowing you can just go and have everything ready in your car!
Yes!!! Car set up!!!!
Yes, please! Would love to see car camp setup video
Fun times, I remember camping in our station wagon with our two dogs when hubby and I were just married. Saw a lot of the country that way. A lovely relaxing way to paint.
That sounds soooo good!!!
Yes please, would love to see your car set up!
I love your scribble loose art style Helen. It’s very relatable and lovely. ❤
Thank you!
I’d love to see your camping set up too!
I'd love to see your car set up. How fun! Thanks for another splodge and scribble. Always inspiring.
Thank you!
The camper setup looks like a great retreat! It would be nice to see a go through.
Yes please car camping video plus where you go
Ohhh… would love to see your overnight setup! I like that idea of doing a few stress-free fun pages like that… might be a nice warm-up to get “into” colours you feel like using. Final painting is lovely!!
OK, thanks! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed doing those few loose ones!
Would love to see yoir camper car set up. So cosy!
What a great set up in your car! Would love to see more of it. I agree it’s quite relaxing and enjoyable to just loosely doodle. And as always, I love your splodge and scribbles. Didn’t get chance to comment on your last video from Spain, I really liked the pieces you did there, especially the window painting. Thanks for the video. And I love your glasses, they look great on you.
Thanks ever so much!!!
Like your free unintentional artwork.....so refreshing 😊 Great large marks and colours. Jo❤
Thanks!
What a nice trip ❤ , I loved most of your art tools , especially that colored pencils bag 💼 👍
Well that was fun, thanks for taking us along on your journey. I have a van and LOVE parking in quiet beautiful places during inclement weather to doodle and splodge! Glad I bumped into you this morning…..sisters in hot chocolate ☕️!
Yay! Woman after my own heart!
That set up is so cute, I love it ☺☺
Hi Helen, I’d love to see your camping setup, looks great fun and so cosy! Thankyou for sharing, take care xx
Thank you!
This was wonderful. Would love to see your setup!
Hi Helen, I would love to see your camping setup. I will have more time in the future to go out and sketch, and using my car as you if possible, would be a dream come true 🤗
I highly recommend it - I just love having it available so much!!
Yes please do a video with your set up
That's so cool and peaceful !
Lovely,a s&s 🫶🏻. Would love to see your camping setup,looks very cozy.
Thank you!
Love your new glasses. They are fabulous on you! Your car set up looked cozy for a day out but I’m not much of a camper. However, I would enjoy seeing more of your setup!
Thanks so much! I'm feeling a bit less traumatised about them now!!
Hi Helen , welcome back from beautiful Girona , I'm sure you enjoyed your time there with your daughter . The car looked really cosy and yes please , a vid show a bit more would be lovely . I've always felt that a charcoal pencil and a Sharpie are briliant stress busters but after watching your videoes have now added tempera sticks to that list of essentials . As ever , many thanks , Mike in Exeter xx
Thank you, yes it was lovely!
I think the texture of the Tempera sticks is beautiful, and I just love that they dry completely!
Really enjoyed this video!
I'm glad! Thanks!
Would love to see how you’ve got your mobile studio set up!
I, too, would like to see your car/art setup. I've wanted to do something like that with my Subaru Forester.
It's definitely good fun!
Yes, I would like to see your car camping set up too! My current car is a bit too small and the seats don't lay flat so I can't overnight in it (hoping I can with the next vehicle). What I have right now is a day trip rolling locker I guess ;-) During the pandemic, I even got a bucket toilet and pop-up shower tent so that I basically had my own portable bathroom (all the rest areas and public facilities closed and I didn't want to be constrained to trips/timing where a handy, private piece of woods was nearby lol). When it rains or snows, I just go "plein car" painting ;-)
I think that's very inventive of you!!
Great! Would love to see your set up. …might do it myself when we get a bigger car. Such a lovely relaxing way to paint, have a nice drink and so peaceful. Plus able to avoid the bad weather which seems to never stop at the moment 😂
I honestly love having it available to me so much! I use it quite a bit - even if not overnight - so nice to have somewhere to rest/stretch out!
Loved it, I too have a similar car set up
Thanks for this. From plein aire to en voiture! I love the one you did last from the van. The pink was perfect. I wonder could we see how you use the pencils sometime, along with watercolour, pen, and I think you used a pencil. Do you activate them, or just leave them be? Your set up looks wonderful! I think just stopping somewhere in the car, to draw and paint is a great idea. I stopped on a farm track today, and 20 minutes of bliss, engrossed in my sketch and paints.
Thanks! I'll do some sketches where I can video better!
It's so good making the effort to do that - sounds lovely!
Loved this video so much. I think these are my favorite paintings/drawings of yours! (At least up there near the top!)
Thank you!! 😊
I would love to see your car camping set up. I have a land rover and want to do the same
car camp set up please! I do the same in Canada when I can.
I hope you enjoyed with your drinking and preparing hot chocolate 🧋☕️
I absolutely did, thanks!!
My husband just got made redundant and I’m semi-joking considering selling the house and moving into a van (a friend suggested a decommissioned double decker may be a better choice given my art supply stash lol). Looking at your car, complete with hot choccy and comfy blanky, I think I could happily live in there instead Helen 😂.
I'm really sorry to hear it - a worrying/stressful time... I very much hope you find the best way forward.
One of my not particularly guilty pleasures is watching van life videos on TH-cam. There are some amazing people out there!
@@helencryer indeed, it’s a genuine appealing thing to me but I know I’d miss the masses of art/sewing/bookbinding/woodwork you name it art supplies I have too much! Thanks Helen, I’m working hard on my own art business to try and make it pay a living wage alongside my day job at Hobbycraft.
Helen...? are you living in your car now?! just joking. but i thought it was hilarious when you cut to the "making some hot chocolate"-scene. when you choose the new wallpaper and get the good china out of the glove departement, i will start to actually get nervous though :D
love this new state of loose drawing/painting. the house made me so happy, too!
Haha!! I have fake plants, fairy lights and I made some camper van patterned bunting.(Which I'll show in a future video) but no wall paper yet! Thanks!
@@helencryer :D:D:D this is so good! who said you can't have the freedom of a vehicle and the anker of a nice home?! love it
Great set up Helen! Love the splodgy too. 🐨👍
Thanks!
Is it safe to use a propane burner in a close vehicle? Am I misunderstanding what that appliance is?
It's butane, but as with all gas burners, you need to be sensible with them and know they give off Carbon Monoxide. I always have windows opened for ventilation when using in the car (and keep a fire extinguisher nearby).
I got rid of inktense before i even bought any other art supply i hated them that much. 10 years in with £15k of art materials and i still hate them and wouldn’t use them again. I never enjoy anything from derwent really. It’s a shame they don’t improve the look and feel of their materials. I do however like their crazily expensive artists pencil range drawing paper.
I'll give them another shot first!
I do like my Derwent Lightfast and Derwent Drawing Pencils a lot, plus I think the Graphitint pencils are nice. I haven't tried their paper though!
Lovely little trip again! Really liked the bright colours of your Stifts! ( Sennelier box ). Thanks. Off to watch my neighbour do a sponsored run for school. 7 yr.olds today weather is sunny.( Oops! Parents read wrong! In 2 weeks! ).
Haha!! That sounds like something I'd do!!
@@helencryer Luckily met mum as we were both leaving the flats! Then dad who said: Hope you’re not off to the school! But, as the sun shone I went for short walk so all not in vain!
Oh good!
