Behind the scenes of an artist’s life
This is a vlog series in which you get to see my struggles, my initial sketches and how I progress to the final painting or sometimes pivot and move on to another subject. And after talking about making art I ramble a little about life in general.
These videos are really uncut. There is no editing, no pretty thumbnails (usually) and a lot of humming and hawing. But it is very real.
Here is number 62 of my uncut videos.
