Thank you. I am autistic, and I have really struggled to wrap my brain around how to create this kind of background, and the way you show it not only makes it look not overwhelming, which is a huge block for me...but also, I finally get it.

Paint for you. That's my #1 tip. Don't paint for money, or do commissions, they will both steal your creativity. Paint for you. The others will want to buy what you love.

I love how you tell your stories as you go along. You brought me back to a childhood I had so many years ago... the freedom to explore and create and to just have fun. I love your vision on this life.

I've been watching a lot of abstract art tutorials. This video touched on processes that I needed to hear and that inspired me immediately with no pondering.

Thanks for the advice. Spot on. What an astoundingly brilliant painting!

Thank you for showing AND explaining what works for you.

“Create for the pure joy of creating”. A mantra for sanity. The advice you give in this video is pure gold. I’m going to save this video for whenever I get bogged down in responsibilities and life in general to remind myself to have fun.

I agree with Lydia - and with everything you said. Just so happens I am bogged down right now and in desperate need of some creative escape, so this message came along at the exact right time. Now I'm off to have fun..😁 Thank you!

Это что-то с чем-то!!! Просто потрясающе! В Вас можно влюбиться только благодаря этому видео...

Only a beautiful soul can do this type of art! And it was cray cray that you had concern over your creation- your work is perfection!

Lydia, I continue to be one of your biggest fans and your paintings never disappoint, including this one!! I absolutely love all the layers, the depth and watching the process of it developing before our eyes! Your talent truly inspires me to try things that I’ve never had the confidence to try! My goal is to one day be even a fraction of the artist that you are! Beautiful job my friend!! 🤗😍

Beautiful work. I love your style.

I used to draw people with chicken wings for arms...so, an abstract expressionist at the age of 9 was born😅. I don't know when it happened, but I noticed I started hating everything I did, artistically, creatively, life-wise--it all soured on me. I don't know if I'm kinder to myself now, but it's better than it was. I love your videos, your message, and your artistic voice Lydia 🙂.

I stumbled onto your youtube video today! I am an abstract painter, and have been lost lately for inspiration. Loved your work and it truly inspired me!! You are so real!

But by listening to you I realised you were describing the moments I loved best when creating (not thinking about and controlling the outcome). Thanks for that. I am ready to go painting now 😊. One practical question: what brand is your spraybottle? It looks like one where you can control the sprayed amount. Kind regards, John
