I Went Live for the First Time!

By Tamara Laporte  |   in art journal  | Tags: art musings , art journal , tamara laporte , Willowing Arts  

Let’s connect, live! 😊 

 

Dear Dan,

I’m so excited! Two days ago, I did my first “professional” spontaneous live on my youtube channel. 😊 It was so fun!

Since my recent epiphany about wanting to bring more joy, love, connection to the world, I’m hoping to do more live streaming so that we can all be together more in ‘real time’! And so, I tried out a new-to-me streaming software which was pretty user friendly! It means that I can have both my face AND my art on screen AND I can zoom in too because I managed to get my camcorder hooked up to the live stream! This is all a bit complex, but I finally sat down and figured out all the tech! Yay!!! 🥳 🎉 ❤️

 

 

There were a few small glitches that I’m going to work out, but it mostly all worked and was super fun! I plan on doing more lives and I will try to stream it to more than one platform at once so that it’s accessible to as many people as possible!

For this live session, I started a little illustration to celebrate the late Matthew Perry whom I adored. He brought great joy to my life in some of the difficult times I’ve been through. I don’t usually do dedications to celebrities, but I really wanted to paint something in honour of Chandler Bing. Such and icon. I’m so sad he’s gone. I imagine him content somewhere happy in the sky. ♥️♥️♥️

I can’t wait to do more lives, if you want to join them do make sure to subscribe to my youtube channel and if you click the ‘bell’ then youtube will notify you when the next live is, but worry not, I’ll also announce it here in this newsletter!

Much love,
Tam ♥️

This little cutie on a swing just popped up on my memories and I love the mixed media textures and her cutie little face in this so much! 😍😍😍 I painted this 6 years ago.

The wonderful @therapistsanctuary and I have filmed another session for our `Creative Sanctuary` series on the y tubes 😊 . This time we talked about `shame` and `shadow work` in general. Jen made a doll and I made an empathy monster! 😊 Many of you will have created an empathy monster with me before in response to the Shadow Work Life Book lesson in the past (and also on woman unleashed!) This cutie did not disappoint me. 😊 The episode will be up on my channel soon! ♥️♥️♥️ Link in my bio/ linktree.

When I`m low and life feels heavy, I end up creating innocent, delightfully cute creatures. I don`t tend to paint `my pain`, I tend to paint `what I need` or `what will soothe me`. The sweet characters offer a reprieve of some sorts, an escape from the dark, a soulful moment of compassion and empathy. I can hear this cute little guy say; “hey hey, it’s gonna be ok, want a cookie or a hug?” 😊 Hope he brightens up your day too. ♥️♥️♥️
