Seen Suzi Blu?

So, it should be said that I haven’t really found my way into crafty internet video. I’m such a crazy multi-tasker that sitting still for most internet video makes me all twitchy. (Unless it’s some vintage Sesame Street. That I can get behind.)

But Kirsty sent me a link to Suzi Blu’s videos on YouTube, and I’ve been really digging them. You should check them out.

Suzi Blu is a mixed-media artist, and she produces several series of vids: How to Keep an Art Journal, Suzi Blu Art Vlog (that’s Video Blog for the uninitiated), and Art Playshops with Suzi Blu.

Everything I’ve seen is fun and colorful, very well-edited, and at about 3 minutes, just long enough. Suzi is very kind and encouraging, and has lots to say about the creative process. And I love watching her paint, collage, and otherwise make.

These are excellent “inspiration break” videos to watch when the mundane part of your day gets a little overwhelming. Check out her blog, too. (Note: There is some explicit content on Suzi’s blog, so if you link there, please consider yourself forewarned.)

Thank you, Suzi! Thank you, Kirsty!
