Wow, love this new direction, stunning
The detail and softness in this piece is absolutely breathtaking. Such an amazing work 🙌
Hello, I would like to thank you you were big source of inspiration at beginning of my art journey. I loved your art at time but your latest work is just so much better. I love that way you are going torwards and i hope you are doing Well in your Life ❤️
Amazing lighting!!!
thank you so much
Amazing!
I love this mushroom lady!! Such a cool concept & beautiful artwork 😍🥰💖
ooooh these colours are gorgeous! 😍😍
Dreamy! thanx for sharing
Do you have any advice on getting into galleries, and being parts of shows and displaying/selling paintings? I want to try but there seems to be a hard entry bar
yes i have a video about this topic (just search “happy d artist galleries” on youtube) but basically follow galleries you like, find galleries that showcase art that’s similar to yours, then email them with a portfolio of 4-5 of your best pieces, and look out for “call for artists” which some galleries do throughout the year to welcome new applicants. it takes some time to get noticed but don’t give up! 🥰
ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED with this piece!! 😍 It is definitely one of my favourite pieces that you’ve ever done and I’ve been watching you for many many years! I remember years ago when my young daughter and I would excitedly watch you together and she is 28 years old now! Keep being amazing! Thank you for your videos!
aww that is so sweet of both of you to have watched my videos for so many years 🥹 much love to you and your daughter!
Always with the fire content thanks!!!
haha thank you, glad you enjoy it!
So beautiful, thank you!💫🌟✨
Hello 😊 love the art piece ♡
So beautiful ❤, have you read any of Neil Gaimens books? He has some characters who are mushroom sellers and they have the distinction of growing mushrooms all over their face neck and head. Your beauty brings that to life for me.
thank you dear! i haven’t read his books but ill definitely check out some fan art/concept art of his mushroom sellers haha, sounds super cool!
@@HappyDArtist yes, you might like his books. He is famous for writing Coraline, but the more interesting, more adult book I read was Neverwhere. It is on Audible and is a very engaging listen! Love your work 💕
Hi! I made an order in January and haven’t received it yet. I emailed you twice and no response 😔
hi dear, so sorry for the delay! it sounds like the package was likely lost in transit as my prints from january were shipped out a long time ago. i’m happy to send a replacement right away! i tried searching for your email and order but couldn’t find it (using the name theresa). would you mind telling me your order number here? ☺️ i’ll have a replacement shipped out to your address from the order number asap 🥰
