🎨 PAINTING my brother and I timelapse | destress with me

Hey guys!
This video is a little different to usual, but I haven't painted in more than 2 years since I left high school. I've been meaning to reconnect with what was something I used to love and spend 90% of the day doing. So I've been missing it a lot. More than I realised. I have unintentionally neglected what made me happy and where I found comfort in, which was painting. I'd spend most of my days painting or in the art room during my free periods. I've been deprived of art and I miss this outlet. I miss doing this for hours, crying and losing sleep over this.
The message I want to say is don't lose touch with your interests and your passion. And if you have lost it, unite with whatever it is and make time! No matter how busy life can be. You can find time. You may need it more than you might think! We sometimes lose track or see no value in something we feel good at, usually because life prioritizes work and study but it's important to give some attention to the certain thing you crave when you need to de-stress and take time-off doing. It's important! It makes you feel accomplished because you gave yourself time to focus and commit to a goal that you actually enjoy!

The medium that I used is oil with 2 (small + medium) flat brushes, 1 pointed. I didn't really thin down the paint (I usually don't even though I pour way too much white spirit/turpentine) so it came out thick of a texture. This made it easy to build and layer upon personally, but I am considering thinning down my paints next time and experiment with that approach instead!

I'm looking forward to painting some more, and maintain this relationship as it really does help and improve a person's well-being. Even if you are someone who thinks they lack an artistic eye, it's always good fun to try a new practical thing as it most likely will be refreshing and therapeutic!

As always, thank you for watching and have a fabulous day!
