I wish you could see the tiny (1x1 inch) acrylic paintings I did for my mother-in-law’s dollhouse. I recreated some full-size paintings that were HER mother’s. One was some locals in their field on their farm and the other was a beach scene of a lonely tree. I started “tiny painting” when I worked for a famous restaurant that serves endless soup, salad and breadstix. I painted on the round name tags they wore. I didn’t get paid for it but I was showed appreciation by the servers, hosts and other staff there. It was the best part of my 25 years there.

If I had to guess why these tiny paintings resonate with people so much, I'd say it's because they make plein air painting seem more approachable and less intimidating. If I had to bring a big bag of supplies, maybe even an entire easel outside with me whenever I wanted to paint, I know I'd never do it. The time commitment can be a deterrent too. Not just the time it takes to paint, but also traveling to a location and back home. Most people have busy lives and can't dedicate an entire morning or afternoon to painting. You make it look like a fun and easy experience.

I have been painting a few years and did watercolour but with two young children my painting time was very limited when I was outside. Then I saw your videos and I ordered a tiny palette from natsume and I made my own tiny sketchbook. I haven’t looked back since. It’s the perfect lightweight set up and I’ve grabbed so many opportunities to do tiny painting. This summer we went to Devon on holidays and I have four cute paintings of my holidays. And you are so right that the painting contains the memories of happy times taking in a beautiful view. So thank you so much.

You do amazing art and have reminded me to go small, so that my plein-air bag (a small pink purse that i bought for a wedding and never used again 😆) is easy to grab and go. My pallet isn't as small as yours, in fact it is one you do not even like (micro portable painter) but it fits so well in that silly pink purse that i have come to cherish. You are the reason that I have revisited waterbrushes, bought athletic wristbands and that gray square thing for finding a composition. (Man o man does that help me not try to squeeze in too much) and the masking fluid pen (who knew that you don't have to wait overnight for masking fluid to dry) BUT what draws me to your videos (beyond the encouragement to get out and paint) is all the clicks and snaps of the magnets, clips and plastic lids coming off as you set up. Its like smelling dinner cook before the table is set. I get weary of artists waving their hands over white paper while telling me what their plans are for the video. But the clicks and snaps while you tell me what your video is about get my jucies flowing. Brilliant! Debs in Montana

I don't know how I found myself here, but I'm glad I found the channel. I love anything "tiny." I have no idea why. These are so lovely! And the paint kit is adorable! This has me in tears. I used to draw in childhood and in high school for class. Not anything close to as good as you. But it was something. I'm in my 50s now and haven't drawn in decades. I did try once, some years ago. My hands had forgotten everything. It's like I never had done it at all. The good thing is a couple of years ago I found (well, my niece found it) my old high school binder with a bunch of drawings. So I do have physical proof that, at one time, I did know how to draw at least somewhat. I just wish I could do it again. Anyway, thank you.

Such great memories. I remember back to the first one where you were using your hoodie to hold the camera. I saw it on instagram. And I remember many of the others in the book. Cute Poppy too. 😍 I have such troubles getting organized so your method really helped me have a way of getting myself together to paint. 💗 I think tiny is a lot of fun because for people who have a lot of experience - it’s something new and for relative newbies, like me, it feels more manageable. I think too much space to cover makes me nervous. Also, if you’re on a tight budget you can use very high quality paper & paints and sustain that for longer. Also as you mentioned, it’s so much easier to have what you need with you and move around easily. Favorite Painting. I love hearing you tell about the struggles with them. It’s very educational. Especially because I already have a feeling about the ones I saw you paint as you posted them. I don’t always see the things that you point out, it’s more of a gestalt vibe to me. It’s funny because I can remember where I was when I saw some of these so I can imagine how strong a memory it is to create them leaves. Scents are something else I remember when creating especially outdoors. So many favorites from this collection. I think the one that had really stuck with me watching this was the white flowered bush one. Because I sooo wanted to do that one right away. 😊 I love the pops of color. But also the cottages. The one where you mentioned the trees and the wire leading your eye in. There’s one with a prominent lovely tree. Like an old oak that I love too. I found you on you tube by accident today and was so excited to see you again! Thank you for all the encouragement and it was very nice to hear your voice. I always thought you would have an English accent. 🙃🙂 Thank you for sharing this and all the words of encouragement!!! ♥️

Watching your video reminded me of the tiny paintings I did in Morocco in May. A friend had given me a tiny handmade book, which she had made. I took it with me, along with a black Pigma pen, a couple of paintbrushes, and a Derwent Intense watercolour field box. I also took a postcard sized watercolour sketchbook, a couple of graphite drawing pencils and an eraser, which I used a couple of times, too. I loved being able to put my tiny book, a black drawing pen, a couple of brushes, and the field box in a zip lock bag and carry it with me in my purse every day. I was travelling with nonartists so I couldn't spend too much time on anything. Sometimes I'd spend a few minutes doing the ink drawing and add colour back in the room. Sometimes, they'd be off doing their thing and I'd have the whole day to wander around and do my tiny doodles, as I called them. And sometimes, I'd have to take a few photos on my phone and refer to them later when I returned to my lodgings. I ended up with 20 pages of tiny paintings, a wonderful memento of my trip. And I rediscovered the joy of painting.

My take away is how, in almost every painting, you mention how you have such a lovely memory, and that you gained so much joy and happiness from each experience, this is what is filling my heart… thank you for the inspiration I never thought to do this or have seen anyone else… now to watch many more of your videos and order a tiny palette and tiny book! Happy Monday! ❤❤

OMG! I to live in Wisconsin so I knew many of these places. This is my home towns but is little painting form. I clicked on this because I'm trying to get into water colors more, and I was not expecting AT ALL for you to paint to my home towns. I've never really been big into drawing what's around me. I usually make up the scene in my head using references but I really should draw more of my country town. I know that would dentally be pleasing to my family. Sorry if that is too personal I just really wasn't expecting this. wonderful art, don't be to hard on yourself❤

My favorites are the ones when you had your dog with you, and especially the one with the cow invasion 😂 Your videos and shorts had an impact on me and inspired my purchasing a tiny book and a tiny palette for myself. So far I haven’t done anything with that book but when I do, I plan to try documenting it as well. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world, and for the inspiration! I’m once again enjoying creative endeavors and it’s been fun and a learning experience coming back to painting more frequently.

I have just bought a few art supplies inspired by a painting you did of your cabin. I believe that was a larger painting though. I have had my GoDraw pallet for several years but I never did get going with it. This video has lit a fire in me and so I wanted to say thank you. I’ll be heading out tomorrow to paint my first mini painting. I’m thinking of a local park. When I do I’ll tag you on IG. October 20th was my favorite from this video.

That’s awesome! The other tiny I did of the tiny house is in my other sketchbook (which I just finished today!), so it was the same size. The tiny format is so fun- I hope you love it too! 😊

Thanks for sharing all these lovely locations and tiny paintings with us. Love the thatched cottage and Bleineim palace, especially. I have never tried tiny painting but your work is so inspirational I hope to try soon with my Natsume honeycomb palette. Best wishes, Kathy x

I'm about to go on vacation for pretty much the first time. I was debating whether or not to bring some paints with me, and now youve convinced me that I definitively will!

Yesss, I can't explain it either, but I'm obsessed with tiny paintings, love them so much! Not enough that I've tried it myself yet, but goodness, seeing this little set might be what gets me to give it a try sooner rather than later. It's adorable, and your paintings are wonderful, even the ones you were disappointed with! (As an aside, my husband and I are thinking of going to Door County for our 25th anniversary this year. I've heard so many wonderful things about it, but we've never been.) Thanks for sharing these gems with us! I'm glad KZitem put you in my feed this morning. 🥰

You must try painting tiny if you’re interested- it’s so calming to do. My father used to go skiing in Door County when he was a child (in the early 1940s!). My parents honeymooned up there and we went up a few times a year. I moved there after uni and did my student teaching there. It’s one of my fav places on the planet. If you do go, I’d recommend Ephraim and Fish Creek… and driving up to Ellison Bay and Gill’s Rock. You won’t be disappointed!! And Happy Anniversary!! ❤

@@LeslieStroz Thank you so much for taking the time to share those recommendations! We're about a six-hour drive from Door County, so not too bad at all. Sounds like it's well worth the road trip!! 🥰

Breath giving! Thank you. Thanks for listing the materials so I didn’t have to ask a question. I didn’t know about the masking fluid pen. Seems like a miracle! Ordered one 15 minutes ago.

Thank you for this inspiring episode. My first time.to "meet you".😍 One of my key takeaway -- this confirms why I love the English landscape. Breathtaking. One of my fave memories EVER.is.how deeply I fell in love with Kew Gardens. 💕

This fits my limited spare time. I do coloring pages that are small. I need to finish what I start and have no time for the full pages. Neat!
