The beauty you have in your heart and mind and not to mention what you create is just beautiful. Your thoughts are real and so true. Not many of us express that. I wish I had closer friends around me, physically, to get together to be creative. Thanks for being there, Paivi.

Your video on artists’ friendships really touched my heart. Creative friends can understand each other and share ideas the way no one else can. I appreciate all you’ve shared with us. and I feel your friendship and openness.

I loved watching the creative process you use. Your finished painting is beautiful. Your work resonates with beauty. Artistic friends are so important because creating is a solitary pursuit. We can encourage and influence one another. I’m so glad I found your blog and look forward to someday taking a class with you. You are a blessing.

Thank you for this amazing explanation and for the video too.
I’m always impressed when I look at the way you begin with only a few drops. And later on the result as finished art-work.

Watching you create is amazing. The way you bring a blank piece of paper to a beautiful painting with all the depth and blending of color is a joy for the eyes. Thank you for sharing.

Paid,
OMG! I am sitting here in bed watching this and telling my husband how darn cute you are just watching you. And then the most genuine, real, brave and courageous part of you comes out and just blows me away! You had me in tears! Thank you so being so raw and vulnerable. That takes SO much guts! I am completely honored to have you as my teacher! You are an amazing artist and fabulous teacher! And am touched beyond words with this gift of friendship video.
From my heart to yours, in deepest appreciation!

Hi Paivi,
I totally agree with Lee (Sheila) and all of her Australian expressions. I too am in Australia, in Sydney and we are so far away from the rest of the world that I often feel a bit ,cut off,
however, I so look forward to all the videos that you produce for us
they are so amazing and I love to read all of the comments. Even though I am not an artist it’s all so inspiring and you are so generous with your time and talent.

Thank you. Paivi
