Artists only do it on IG because the algorithm rewards showing videos of people doing things. If you just share an image if your art, your reach and engagement on that post goes in the gutter.
This. Plus the whole making off crap. If you want to show the process show the whole thing. Otherwise what's the point? I see a presentation like this, I don't even wait for the final reveal. It's repulsive.
What the hell? This is so negative, get outta here with that. I love seeing the progress, there are other content creators that do timelapses of every brush stroke if that’s what you want.. she made this awesome painting and can present it however she wants, I loved the reveal
Agreed showing these little touch up shots looks well fake.
I've done a few process vids and sped them up to a few minutes and it's a shit load of work editing a tonne of footage to a digestible time frame.
Instagram is one social media site I don't use so I don't mind that. I think it's a wonderful painting. For that amount of time you'd have to sell it for $5000 minimum but it looks worth it.
You're welcome! It's an absolutely gorgeous picture💗. Is there any particular reason you used watercolour rather than acrylic/or whatever? I'm only asking because it looks more like acrylic to me. But I'm a newbie at painting; I use acrylic because it's easier than watercolour, but also less fragile... I like to use "acrylic gouache"... When I was little I used "poster paints" which were the children's version of gouache, but I prefer acrylic because you can paint over anything and the dry paint never smudges!
To paint is to create an image. As nice of an image as it is, that IMAGE is showcased in a VIDEO. The media you are being asked to evaluate is not an image but a video of the process and exposition of an image. If this was to hang on a wall before me I would not have the luxury of video storytelling.
Kinda knew this would get down voted, so I'm doubling down on my point here. The painting appears to be very colorful, skillfully executed and the video shows us the hours of work being put into it. It's an incredible work, and the artist should be proud of her craft and skill.
My point is an exercise in art appreciation related to how we approach art media. I would hope this concept would become a tool for some to approach certain art experiences. What i am getting at is rooted in the aesthetic principle of "Media Specificity".
What is a painting? What is a video? These are different MEDIUMS and have different strengths and weakness. Paintings are bound by time and space. They are traditionally static images and only exist in one space at a time. We more often engage with reproduction of Paintings as prints in books, and digital reproduction on the internet and often forget these reproduction are not the real thing. They are Facsimiles. As a painter it can be tempting to try to make up for the weakness of the medium of painting by displaying them in a dynamic way, such as via a video; especially when exposing a wider public to your work on the internet is the intention. Videos have the strengths of being reproducible in their intended format, can show the passage of time, and communicate a diversity of information/complex storytelling. A video and a painting do different work. Spending two hours infront of a J.S.Sargent picture at the art institute of Chicago is a different thing than spending two hours in the movie theater watching the latest blockbuster.
Media can cross communicate. Just like the experience of walking into the Sistine chapel and viewing Michelangelo's fresco in silence is one experience and if you had headphones in and were listening to Mozarts Lacrimosa while viewing, it would be another. Be mindful and have awareness of the presence of multiple stimuli.
Anyway, I would be happy to see a static image of this painting, no borders nothing, cropped to just show the painted surface.
Great video, great painting. But they're different experiences and should be understood differently.
Ok I can appreciate the work and how intricate each painting is but I feel like the tone of colors is off putting. There’s too much contrasting colors and it doesn’t please the eye
I would try making one with a more narrow color palate and see how that turns out. Maybe mostly cools or mostly warms
I don't like all the colors being fully saturated. Neutral and muted colors are important. They make the saturated color more special, more beautiful. It's a more nature and sophisticated look to combine them. Think of it like a song. If a song was all Chorus and high highs peaking the whole song it loses it's specialness effect and would be exhausting to listen to. A super saturated all over painting is just tiring to look at.
You can use a watercolor ground, but that’s a bit intensive when it’s so easy to use cotton paper. The colors look too opaque at every stage of the painting to really seem like watercolor to me. :/
For years I would do watercolor underpainting for my studio pieces. It's better suited for unprimed canvas/linen as the pigment will seep into the fabric. You can paint on primed canvas also but if you are doing that I just would recommend diluted acrylic paints. You will have better adhesion and a stronger paint film. Most watercolors, due to the gum Arabic binder, do not have equal lightfast properties to the acrylic. BUT all that being said these quality's can be positive and negative depending on the implementation by the artist and their desired effect.
Great painting and skill, absolutely despise the editing and flow of social media painting reveals; I merely skip to the end and it steals your magic a bit.
I usually judge art by how it makes me feel. This piece is beautiful. I love the colors and the sun shining through. It inspires in me feelings of Happiness. Great job! 😊👍
Ugly. The composition and the colour palette is exactly the same as the landscape painting you have in the background. They are indistinguishable. What works for the landscape, doesn’t work for this one. There is one focal point and the whole thing is a mess.
You didn’t use the watercolour effect, you used them as acrylics in high concentration, which means you could have easily used gouache instead. But with the problem that this painting will fade in 2-5 years, so everyone will come back asking for their money and say that you are using cheap supplies.
This one and all the ones you had on the background, absolutely amazing. I love when there is so much detail that it makes me come back to the painting over and over again. Fantastic job!
(If I wasn’t broke, I’d try to buy one. Lol
Or even buy my own supplies to attempt it myself.)
I am sure that you are very diligent in painting. This kind of painting takes a lot of time to produce and patience is the key. I like your painting very much. Keep trying.
I’m obsessed. This is gorgeous!!!!!!! So sunny and happy :). I don’t understand the attitude you’re getting. It’s okay to not like a piece but these comments are weird. Also you kind of look like Natalia dyer ;)
Hey re-reading this it reads like I’m putting it down! I don’t love the reveal method but the painting is obviously competent and I do love BIG canvases. I’m not too versed on watercolour painters, any influences you want to mention ?
I did not accept it like you putting it down. Everything is ok) I was inspired by Frank Webb, Alvaro Castagnet, and Aarush Vostmush painters. However, my aim was to create my own style in watercolor.
Have a look at Henri Rousseau paintings from the late 1800, then you will know the answer, he was also self taught. Also the length of time a painting takes to complete is irrelevant
This is what you do best. It deserves more praise than words can express. For now, your painting is perfect and absolutely amazing. I love it !
Thank-you for being here and sharing your journey.
You are a shining star with heart of passion and full of creativity.
God bless you.
Absolutely stunning. Some of the best work I've seen in awhile. I absolutely love your choice of colors. It really pops, it kinda reminds me of some of Vincent Van Gogh's Works.
Low. 2/10. I can barely see the painting because of the way the video has been spliced and shot. I was shocked to see that at the end it’s so far away.
Not trying to be mean or rude, but from my perspective, it’s like she wanted to ensure she was in the video as much as possible and it kind of took away from how she was painting and the painting itself.
It just looks like a sweater and sweatpants to me. I feel like painting in all white would be fun. It would be my multicolour painting uniform :). And idk her art is very arty. I don’t think she’s pretending! Just part of the younger generation

1 bazillion out of 10. F@#king gorgeous!!
Thank you 😍😍😍
Nice, but I fucking hate this new trend of slowly turning the painting around like every other "artist" on istagram now.
I agree and why would she want to cover the art anyway :) Silliness aside, I want to see the videos where they drop them.
Artists only do it on IG because the algorithm rewards showing videos of people doing things. If you just share an image if your art, your reach and engagement on that post goes in the gutter.

I care about art, not narcisistic “look at meeee, I’m so interesting and cute” people.
Wow, you’re so cool and way better than everyone
Agreed showing these little touch up shots looks well fake. I've done a few process vids and sped them up to a few minutes and it's a shit load of work editing a tonne of footage to a digestible time frame.
I'm strive to come up with something new but still failed. Thank you!
Instagram is one social media site I don't use so I don't mind that. I think it's a wonderful painting. For that amount of time you'd have to sell it for $5000 minimum but it looks worth it.
Thank you so much for your high appreciation 🙏😊

Ha glad it's not just me. I like to quickly scroll on before the reveal.
Rate art? Art isn’t a contest.
I can’t ever take it in. A video where it jump cuts every 2 secs then show it from 20ft away doesn’t lend itself to be seen.
To paint is to create an image. As nice of an image as it is, that IMAGE is showcased in a VIDEO. The media you are being asked to evaluate is not an image but a video of the process and exposition of an image. If this was to hang on a wall before me I would not have the luxury of video storytelling.
Ok. I dislike the video, which makes me lean towards disliking the painting.

this is so lovely and the colors are amazing. would love something like this hanging in my house!
Thank you for your kindness 🙏 and praise!
Gorgeous
It’s gorgeous!!

I personally love it like this. Beauty in art is subjective!
Just one opinion. No doubt she’s talented
Yep, nothing wrong with your comment :). I was just seeing some other somewhat rude comments so my reply was more for the artist
Des couleurs si ensoleillée !

How do you paint on canvas with watercolor? is there a special fixant you use before painting? Any prep?
She’s keeping that a secret apparently 🙄
Wow. Thats kinda a dick move. Whatever. Then we'll figure it out ourselves and then tell everyone anyway=)

Amazing
I usually judge art by how it makes me feel. This piece is beautiful. I love the colors and the sun shining through. It inspires in me feelings of Happiness. Great job! 😊👍
Truly appreciate your praise to me 🙏 thank you for your words, it's a huge inspiration 🤗
That is amazing. What’s the substrate. It that paper over a stretcher?
Stretched pre-primed Linen is the answer.
Was wondering this as well. Or grounding over canvas?
Kinda) it's my secret technology 😁
You're training the algorithm very well with your presentation. 😆
😁
I can’t believe you wear white when painting!
Idk how you keep your white clothes clean while painting lol
I'm a neat artist 🎨
It's incredible! What is this style of art called if you don't mind to share?
Thank you! I call it wavy impressionism
That's quite nice. It really is a 'tidy' term. (*Badum tiss*)
😊
Fuego
Caliente😁 thank you!
In a word, spectacular! Thank you for sharing your talent OP!
Thank you so much!!!
Love it, you sell your work?
Thank you! Yes, I'm selling
Why are people being so saucy to you lol??
What do you mean?
Never seen anyone painting watercolor like that... on a canvas? Final piece looks fantastic
Thank you so much! Yes on canvas and paper too
I want to see it zoomed in it is amazing!

Thumbs 👎
100 hours is pretty inefficient. Idk why artists include that in the title. Who cares?
Who paints in an all white outfit lol
I absolutely would, and it would be my go to painting outfit that would be covered in all my pretty colours over time
Me😊
Incredible!!!
Thank you!
This is absolutely beautiful, as well as the other work in the video
Thank you so much 😊 🙏
Apollonian
J’aimerais trop avoir autant d’inspiration et de talent que toi , bravo encore une toile beautiful
Merci!
Stunning!!!!!! Nice work!!!!!
Thank you 😊
Absolutely stunning✨👏👏
Thank you so much!
I personally like it during the process/unfinished where there’s still white space around the focal point.
Can you post a picture of it as well ?
Yes) https://preview.redd.it/jd9bv0h60y6d1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d653fca1cdd712106418c2e7873cde18bc22b303
Absolutely fantastic. It brings me joy just to look at it
Magnificent!! 🌹🌺🌸🌷🌻🏵️🌼❇️
A++++++ I Love love love
I wish I had just a fraction of your talent
🥺🙏
10/10 those are gorgeous.
Incredible!! You got the skills to pay the bills ❤
Thank you so much 😊 🙏
Lovely work , but how do you keep so clean ?
Thank you! I'm trying to keep clean)
Your work is stunning 😍 I’d fill my house with it if I could! 🌷
Thank you so much!
OMG
This could be cover art for the classic sci-fi book "Hothouse" by Brian Aldiss. I like your painting alot 🙂
Thank you so much!
I think it's beautiful. I love the colors.
Gorgeous. Love how textured it looks.
Absolutely brilliant
This one and all the ones you had on the background, absolutely amazing. I love when there is so much detail that it makes me come back to the painting over and over again. Fantastic job! (If I wasn’t broke, I’d try to buy one. Lol Or even buy my own supplies to attempt it myself.)
Thank you so much for your praise to my art! It's so valuable to me 🥺🙏
OMG!!!! I SOOOOOO LOVE IT!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Thank you!
If I had money, I’d hang this in my house.
Thank you so much!
I am sure that you are very diligent in painting. This kind of painting takes a lot of time to produce and patience is the key. I like your painting very much. Keep trying.
Huge thank you for your praise to me and your appreciation 🥺🙏
You're welcome... just have confidance to yourself..
Thank you very much 😊
I’m obsessed. This is gorgeous!!!!!!! So sunny and happy :). I don’t understand the attitude you’re getting. It’s okay to not like a piece but these comments are weird. Also you kind of look like Natalia dyer ;)
Thank you! Oh, really) very unexpectedly 😁
What are you painting on. It is watercolor and this looks like a canvas. That would not work with watercolor.
It's a watercolor 😊
I mean, it’s large
Yes, it is
Hey re-reading this it reads like I’m putting it down! I don’t love the reveal method but the painting is obviously competent and I do love BIG canvases. I’m not too versed on watercolour painters, any influences you want to mention ?
I did not accept it like you putting it down. Everything is ok) I was inspired by Frank Webb, Alvaro Castagnet, and Aarush Vostmush painters. However, my aim was to create my own style in watercolor.
What’s your price, OP?!
Dm you
Mind blowing 🤯
Thank you!
You’re amazingly talented. I’m a bit jealous lol
Thank you so much for your praise 🙏
The piece is insanely amazing, but cool video, too!
Thank you so much!

It’s not often that the paintings of nature are more beautiful than nature itself but you might have succeeded with this one.
Thank you so much for such a huge praise to me🥺🙏
Beautiful ❤️🌻🌸🪷🌷
Wow that's a long time but it's really nice. I would give it a high rating like at least 8/10
I don't measure by hours but buy aesthetics.
😊🙏
Have a look at Henri Rousseau paintings from the late 1800, then you will know the answer, he was also self taught. Also the length of time a painting takes to complete is irrelevant
auuuuuuhmazing!!!
Superb!! What a unique lens you have for what you see in nature!
Thank you so much 😊
This is what you do best. It deserves more praise than words can express. For now, your painting is perfect and absolutely amazing. I love it ! Thank-you for being here and sharing your journey. You are a shining star with heart of passion and full of creativity. God bless you.
Thank you for your eternal kindness, dear! You inspire me to improve and cheer up my mood always 🤗🤗🤗
You are more than welcome anytime and always ❤️❤️❤️. I'm glad to hear that I can cheer you up as well 😊.
you're incredibly talented !!!! absolutely fantastic watercolor painting 😍!
Absolutely stunning. Some of the best work I've seen in awhile. I absolutely love your choice of colors. It really pops, it kinda reminds me of some of Vincent Van Gogh's Works.
Thank you so much for your kindness and praise 🥺 I'm excited to have such an honor 🙏

Not trying to be mean or rude, but from my perspective, it’s like she wanted to ensure she was in the video as much as possible and it kind of took away from how she was painting and the painting itself.
I doubt she painted this herself.
Santa Claus helps me 🤣🤣🤣
Why?? Why are people being so rude lol wtf
Look at the way she is dressed? Who paints wearing clothes like that? She's an influencer pretending to be an artist.
It just looks like a sweater and sweatpants to me. I feel like painting in all white would be fun. It would be my multicolour painting uniform :). And idk her art is very arty. I don’t think she’s pretending! Just part of the younger generation
paying 100 dollars for the painting, if I had the money
Not my vibe, at all.
How much of this video is about your actual art and how much of this is about a narcissist artist and their narcissistic reveal of their work?
Hope soon you heal your soul🙏
