I just paused at the 10-sec mark to comment this, but i totally agree!! its so prettyyyyy and calming

We know a lot of artists who have the same ambivalence about having exhibitions in the city where they work, and really exhibitions are never easy anywhere. We're glad you found a friendly, neighboring space to host a show on your terms, because it looks amazing!

i always really like listening to your introspection and that’s no different here-especially the exploration you’re doing to find those sweet spots between professional work, life, and Just Being A Painter™️ where it all feels fulfilling and right. also, this whole vlog: all the shades of green, lots of art, trip footage, skipping rocks…delicious, thank you for the meal

Loving the oodles of art making and travel content 💚 Toady looked like he was living his best life by that creek!

Always LOVE to see your paintings, and the cute vacation snippets are a fun little bonus!

!!! loved this whole vid!!! i will say from the POV of a customer seeing local art pieces - ur stickers etc would spark so much joy for me. I sometimes like shopping online but shopping in store at a local small business just has a different special feeling. I also understand from the POV of the business owner/creator tho - in terms of having to actually do the work to get all it sorted. I worked seasonal at this store called "scout" giftshop in toronto and my world would literally pause for a second seeing ur pieces in there. but it is in canada. keep enjoying ur life!!

So much art! AND Toadie in a mossy river... you spoil us

The intro color scheme is immaculate

This beautiful, I love the green aesthetic, I will binge watch your videos as much as I can, you have inspired me to create art and gain new ideas. I also love the neon green phone case. 💖

This video was so healing as an artist myself. Watching other be so creative is such a beautiful thing and really does inspire me. Leigh's videos always feel like a Ghibli movie tbh, it's so calming and vibrant with color; and the music reminds me of a soundtrack from one of their films. Beautiful work and film as always

The next time you visit Michigan, I'd love to be able to gift you guy's some local treats. The cider, cheese, and fudge shops near me are phenomenal! Artisan shops here are the best

I love seeing your journey here, and your personal growth and how you create art, it's just so alive and inspirational!

took a sabbatical from all things art making/watching during my 1st trimester of pregnancy because I was feeling so sick. I can't even explain how good it feels to be back and enjoying content again!! AHHH!! So happy I have videos to catch up on 🤩🤩

I love how to background wall in your studio is filled with green art, it feels like you have so many plants in the studio, like a jungle haha - I may steal this idea from you for my apartment 😅

Loving all the green Leigh, from the paintings in the background, to the the Stanley cup, and the iPhone case!! 💚🌳🍃 It’s giving frog vibes!! 🐸💕

I’ve been visiting your older videos (like this one) because you’re so talented and creative but soothing all in one!

This is a beautiful vlog!! The horse is absolutely adorable and love watching you paint. Always so soothing to watch in my down time or when I’m painting ✨✨ loving the phone microphone so far despite the difficulties you had getting it going 🥰

As always, Leigh’s vlogs are so much fun and a joy to get notifications for ❤ thank you for the spontaneous premiere!

I adore all of your landscape/nature paintings, they are my absolute fav...

Love the chill vibe of this video, Leigh. It's so clear you're in a good place with your working practice and your personal life and I hope that continues for you ❤

That’s my favorite painter right there! Thanks for always sharing your life, paintings, & water bottle reviews with us, Leigh ❤

That was such a fun peaceful video! I love the way you narrate your videos and that paintings you did are really beautiful!🤍

Just want to say that I’ve been a long time watcher of your channel and I love how you’re constantly changing and growing and I’ve loved each phase. It’s like they could each have their own colour grade system somehow also?! Lovely to see you pop back up on this platform :)

I like listening to art vlogs while doing my art, and yours is by far my favorite

Leigh you’re just such a calming presence. I always feel at peace watching your videos :’)

this vlog was so so lovely and a joy to watch as an artist 🥰 I can’t wait till the next one !!

love all the green paintings behind you in the intro and outro footage!

YOur art is wonderful. I'm an artist myself, but i use gouache or acrylic in a little different way. Your technic and style are so inspiring. And you're so right, it's what i say all the time : now artists create sensationnal contents, instead of just creating. And finally, they spend more time making videos than making art. Me i was making videos by the past, and there's still some left on my channel, but i finally stopped, because it take so much energy : recording, uploading on the computer, making a montage, uploading on youtube....and when you have several to post, it could take a lot of time. So finally it allow me to put much more energy and time into creativity.

such a good vlog as alwayssss! so fun and vibrant, and makes me wanna go out and bask in the sun

love all the greens and neons you've been including! here's to more time being able to be an artist and not just admin 💚

Loving all of the green!

Thank you for this content! Love to see you. The horse painting is beautiful!!! ❤

Your videos make me feel so relaxed, Leigh! Thanks for being yaself.

Was watching this video while waiting to board my flight home! I literally love all of your content, and I always can’t wait for you to upload your vlogs. I was so intrigued by your adventures in this one I almost missed my boarding time whoops! ❤ love ya and keep on creatinggg -Ryan

Always great to see you Leigh!

Watching this video made me really happy. Thank you for sharing!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Watching your videos always feels so calming and inspiring, thanks for sharing your work & thoughts!

It is so relaxing and motivating at the same time to see you painting 😍 I've created more art just for myself this past weeks and it felt so nice. Your vlog inspires me to continue in this direction!

Just started and I am screaming crying throwing up I love that big silly flower painting on the wall 💚 so much

Love all the art in the background ❤❤❤❤

love u so much leigh. ur my fav person on the internet.

So much joy watching another vlog 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

This video was incredible. And the intro was 10/10. I can't help but love everything you do

I lived in asheville for a while and it was so nice to see the clips from your visit im feeling all nostalgic now 😊

Such a relaxing vid to watch before snoozing. Thanks girlie pop 💖

Its great that you're painting more and thanks for sharing that waterfall, amazing

All the green makes me feel so relaxed

Yay! A new one. I'm chilling before I go back to CXC here in Columbus.

Leigh videos are my comfort videos 🫶🏼

I loved this! That Creek was spectacular!

Your vlogs always draw me back to wanting to practice painting again

My favourite artist to chill with while I organise my life :)

You had me laughing with your honest trials in recording mishaps, thank you for that. ❤ everything else was great too, lovely trip

you are living the ultimate artist life! It's truly motivating...gives me hope lol...more power to "visual" artists!!

Of course I don’t know you but … your life seems to be my dream life. Thanks for sharing this little dream. I am french, I live next to Paris so all the landscape et travel moment you let us see, it’s the perfection for me 💚😌

Leigh's videos are like the KZread equivalent of a Xanax. I always feel so calm during them.

Feeling the generous urge! Love the aesthetic and vibes of this channel :)

!!!!! I am so happy whenever you post!!! it brings me sm joy !!! but I'm also very happy that you're making art just for you that we might never see 😌😌💞💞💞💞 art has to be for just you sometimes

I live about 40min from Asheville and absolutely love the mountains of NC!! Also, I appreciate your honest opinion of Square Space. I always only hear positive things about it, so it was refreshing to hear yours

You’re great to watch and inspiring for other artists….good job Leigh remain encouraged.

This was a splendid trip of a journey 🥲

i love the green and black vibes in the intro

I love Sleeping Bear dunes! It's so beautiful there! Camping there is very fun! Also love your vlogs and have missed you!

all of the green in the intro did something so good for my brain

DUDE. So grateful to have found you just now

Thank you! Love all your videos Leigh.

Love the green theme in the studio rn. It's v inspiring 🐸🌿🪲

I was so happy to see the long goodbye wave at the end of the video come back! 😋

Toadie lookin like a majestic boi in the creek. Love this video it has everything. Loved the lil review segment too bc I think of you as the hydration queen. And of course always love to see you make art. I also appreciate you sharing your thoughts about balancing art making, content making, and business admin-ing because I’m going through the process of starting my own art channel and making this my full time thing. That little horse is so precious. I recently told some friends “yeah I can draw anything you want…except for horses” bc I always struggle with them. 😂

You're truly in your green era 💚 Also as a North Carolinian it makes me very happy every time NC makes an appearance in your travels 😊

I’m vibing with the vlog today. I like the art show, it’s cool to see your work in a public space. Also, I feel the same way you do about content creation - I’m in the process of starting my art career and social media and content creation are just…by far the most frustrating part. I’m still trying to figure out that aspect - maybe showing work in person and doing in person sales and marketing is better than focusing on social media for me?? I don’t know. It’s a journey for sure. I feel the same - literally all I want to do is paint and make stuff and there’s so much that gets in the way of that.

Love your painting ! ❤

I always watch your videos, thanks again Leigh

J’adore tes vibes! Tout ce que tu fais est superbe ! ❤

Love this video! Thanks for the insight!

so relaxing love it

loved the vlog, it really inspired me - thank you ☺️ ✨

I was so excited to see you visit Black Mountain! That is where I live, it's beautiful. I'm teaching an Illustration class at Warren Wilson College and I showed one of your vlogs the other day. thanks for sharing your world!

as a fellow taurus your constant use of the color green in all shades is immaculate thank you

The green vibes in the intro are impeccable

the horse painting is so cute!!!1

best vlog ever i must say!!!

This one was healing to watch 😌

I loved the flower painting you were working on around the 9-10 minute mark! :)

Love the video! And definitely agree on the cup, best purchase I’ve made for my daily water intake lol

This made me smile so much :)

As always a beautiful video I'm so happy to be able to watch ☺

Such a beautiful video Leigh 💛

Such an honor 🙏😔 to get to watch another leigh ellexson art vlog

So funny I literally switched my website the opposite way 😂❤ I love watching you make art it's so inspiring ilysm

10/10 vlog for sure!!

What a wonderful vlog! Enjoyed it a lot🎉

I lived in Michigan for a bit in Ludington. That lakeshore is the best I have ever seen anywhere on earth, and the sunsets never disappoint. There's a place called Silver Lake Sand Dunes where you can take vehicles out on the dunes and right up to the Lake Michigan beach. I hope you get to go again next summer :)

Loved it ❤

LOVE

I’m loving this green intro!! It’s so pretty
