An Unexpected Turn of Events…

For me, that painting represents how Ryland and Shane work together as a couple. Ryland lays the sturdy foundation...then Shane comes in at the end and adds his creative flair to it. The outcome is beautiful and perfect.

Honestly, Ryland is already giving major dad energy while he’s assembling things and hanging up that frame in a baseball hat and shorts

“Strong foundation” just shows you what an artistic genius Shane really is. And Ryland is the handiest housewife EVER! Love you two!

I studied art, and I just want to say that the process of creating a piece is what really matters, when channeling emotions towards your artwork in the moment and throughout the journey, that gives you a masterpiece. i think the mesmerizing understanding about it, is that the viewer has their own opinion (which gives it more of a personality but from a different pov) that’s the beauty of it all, quite frankly Ryland made something (from nothing) beautiful with the “process of emotions” which led to Shane adding his own creative touch to the same piece. connecting the two gives you a masterpiece that you’ll never forget.

I am a painter, and honestly, Ryland was doing a great job. I’ve always believed that anyone can make art. Most are just too afraid and doubt themselves along the way. And most artists are never fully happy with their art. We pick at every little detail too. But it turned out great!

I love how the painting turned up. It’s like you two as a couple. Individually they’re “cute” but together it’s “beautiful”!!!!!
That’s you guys: Strong Foundation!!!

I am so flipping jealous. I wish I had a boyfriend that would have a spread like that set up for me on Easter. Hell I wish I had a boyfriend at all. Shane definitely checks all the boxes of the perfect partner

I’m an artist and this made me feel so seen! When you’re purchasing a piece of art you’re not just paying for the materials. You’re paying for the time the artist spent learning, honing, and mastering their skills.

Pssst.... Ryland... when you want to paint a large canvas all one base color try using a paint roller or a large sponge... let dry and do a second coat over that if needed. It saves SO much time and less exhausting! I used to do that in my painting classes in college!

“Why are the crystals on the window sill?”
“I’m charging them!”
I love Shane and his crystals, and moon water!

The fact that Ryland and Shane don't realize that the name of their painting "strong foundation" is literally the perfect representation of them together - two parts distinctly incomplete without each other

Once the heart was added-it made everything so complete and complementary and beautiful, the life together that you two deserve. Now that’s a strong foundation.

So excited to watch. Couldn’t wait to finish work to watch. Been watching the countdown for 20 minutes. Can’t wait for you guys to share more Colorado vids. Missing Barnasaur❤️

Ryland being so supportive of Shane's 5 min heart art with jizz across it and Shane hating Ryland's art he worked a week on is giving #majorcouple goals 😂😂can't stop laughing. Definitely portrays married life well lol

As someone who paints everyday - I honestly love the art you made! Texture is a very underrated tactic in simplistic art

Shane's so cute saying "you left me on easterrrrr" 😭😭😭😂

I actually like Ryland's artwork. If I was going to add anything to it, I would lay squares of gold foil leaf in geometric shapes over the texture to give depth.

OMG, after Shane added the heart, WOW loved it…I loved it before but now it’s a combined piece by the two of you. It’s beautiful.

Awww I actually love the addition of the heart on the painting. So sweet and simple!
Rest easy, Snoop

Shane’s doing great with the crystals! Charging them in the sun OR moon is perfect, don’t do both! Make sure to check what crystals are sensitive to sunlight, and make sure he is setting his intentions for the crystals as he’s charging them!
Love u guys 🥰

The love between you guys is just..... inspiring. It's definitely inspiring. I love watching you guys !!!!! Thru all the bad news u see when u turn on the news, and all the bad going on in the world... I need to see the love and compassion and loyalty between you guys. I love yall so much!!!!! Xoxoxo

I love you guys. Seriously in all honesty, you both together is just the best and most joyful thing to see. The “hard week” and everything with that, us as viewers, would never even expect or know that. You both are amazing. Shane, stop being so hard on yourself! People LOVEEEEEE you. Ryland, you are such a breath of fresh air and realistic, which I love. You both together, is just perfection.

The dad energy is SO STRONG with both of you. Like I feel like you're already expecting because there's so much good-dads- preparing-for-baby energy

Ok but, Shane's addition is everything. :D
As a person who enjoys drawing and painting, this is beautiful

"why didn't you put any paint on it?" is exactly what I thought the second Shane said it about the painting 😂😂 I love the heart design though! 💜

Why am I crying seeing Shane and Ryland hanging the final version of Strong Foundation. Happy for things to come for them 🥹

I love how Shane has such an amazing artistic view but is so humble about it. Wishing the best for both of you 🤍

Shane you are 100% correct about charging your crystals when you feel they need it. And absolutely right about charging them in the sunlight and moonlight. It's especially powerful on a super moon night or eclipse. You can also charge them by burying them lightly in the ground, soaking them in salt and water, in candle or incense smoke, or smudging them with sage!
🌼⭐🌙⭐🌼

I actually cried at the end. I remember seeing Snoop in some of Shane's earliest videos way back in the day. You will be missed little buddy ❤️

Shane: “Confidence in a drink!?”
Me: honey, that’s called vodka.

Pink Spackle is weirdly fun to work with! It's an "air activated" thing and the pink is usually a good indicator to show you've covered an area completely before letting it dry (to make sure you didn't miss any spots).
Also a speckle effect, dip your brush into some paint and using either a stick or another paint brush, you can tap on the brush to flick some paint onto your canvas. Also works well if you have a toothbrush! Just dip in paint and run your fingers across the bristles! :)
I think you did very well for your first attempt, honestly! Art is subjective and as an artist myself, I have to learn to walk away and come back to it later with "new eyes". Or else I'm never happy with it.
If you want to do more art projects, I think you'd really enjoy doing paint pours and Splatter Art! Yeah it's messy, but really fun (and a wonderful de-stresser lol)

Ryland gagging as Shane says "wait think about it" 😳🤣
Love the heart painting & the meaning. RIP Snoop 🤍

In my experience, crystals can lose their full charge in sunlight. Think of how the sun can fade the brilliant colors of anything left out too long and can be too intense and drying if other elements like earth and water aren’t involved. Ive had great experience with charging my crystals in the full moon. For crystals I keep around for calming anxiety, I like to charge them in water infused with chamomile or on a bed of chamomile flowers. One can get very creative. However, we are all on our own path and if something works for you then ***it works***
I recommend looking up what correspondences each individual crystal has and using that as a guide. Love you both and I’m happy you’re taking us along in this new chapter in your life.

can we just talk about the fact that the painting actually looks soooo perfect now !!!

You guys are sooo supportive of one another and this is so beautiful, more than any art work! Strong foundation is definitely represented by what you guys have!

Omg if not a whole channel, atleast regular segments or a "Handy Housewife" video section!! I'm here for it
I love yours and Morgan's DIYs/ house design videos! She could be your handy housewife co host!

One cool painting tip is try using just a regular feather duster to add “splatter” effects to a canvas or wall. It’s really neat. My old bedroom walls were done that way. 😊

This was a fabulous, heartfelt, dare I say inspirational video! Perfect for a Sunday!!!

I absolutely love that art piece! Now knowing the story behind it and that it’s the result of you both having a rough week, but when you both came together and focused on it, you turned it into something so beautiful! Almost like it tells the both of your stories, and how as long as you stick by each other’s side, no matter how bad things might be going, as long as you’re together you’ll not only get thru any rough times, you’ll completely dominate it and end up making it just another beautiful piece to your story and a hurdle you conquered.💞 You should def bring it back to Colorado!

These peeks we get into your life, your love and the way you work together is wonderful.
Now... about doing another art piece... yes please, more. The way you both provided your touch to this one is fantastic!

The painting looks amazing you guys definitely have made it amazing. And i absolutely love tuning into your guys videos makes me happy to see the stuff you do and the stuff you make it truly is amazing don't dull your shine because their are brighter days ahead together with each other

Supper obsessed with Ryland Vlogs, I’m so freaking happy for both of you guys. That canvas really looked incredible. You both made a piece of art look expensive and lovely!

I love how you both added your touch. The support you give each other is in your heart for art!

Awwww I love it!! See that heart and the art piece it self truly does symbolize what Shane said a strong foundation. Your hearts, your home, and the love you have for each other. It’s absolutely amazing!!!

I love how thoughtful the two of you are with each other. So refreshing to see people in love who still want to do those sweet little gestures like getting an Easter basket to brighten up their day. RIP Snoop 😔

Ryland firstly I am so proud of you for even attempting to create your own art! 💛 I know the experience was a bit frustrating and I want to hug you so much in the end tho you guys both created something truly magical.

you guys have always been my comfort watch, so so so happy to see more videos

the art you made is super creative and subtly stunning!! art is like makeup, it looks a little iffy during the process (especially when you have created it - you're going to be extra critical), but until all of it's components are brought together and finished, then its stunning, exactly the same with what you've done! love it!!

4:33 Made me crack up. Love that Shane is into crystals! I definitely got the same reaction from my husband when he first found my crystals sitting outside after a full moon... 🤣

i’m going through the worst time in my life rn and shane and rylands videos always make me forget about that for a little so i’m so grateful for these uploads ❤️

I love how ryland will always trust shane completely and go with his thoughts it’s so cute!

Aweeee no!!! Rip Snoop 🥺 Breaks my heart 💔 Snoops was SO GORGEOUS ❤ The painting ended up BEAUTIFUL with both of your touches 💕💕💕

Omg you guys are so cute! At first I was agreeing with Ryland like “the art is done, it’s fine, leave it alone!” BUT THAT HEART!!! OMG!!! I would have never thought to do that and it really did something magical to it!!! 😍😍🥰

Really been loving the vlogs, Ryland. Love how you keep it real by showing the bad with the good. Best to you and Shane on starting a family 💕☺️

Awwwww seeing it all now..... amazing both it's a piece of u both together x

The little heart made me tear up! Such a sweet touch to welcome any potential new owner. I would totally purchase a canvas made by Ryland💖💕 And R.I.P Snoop, you were the best kitty. ✌

Love you guys! Keep going! You guys truly deserve every ounce of happiness that comes your way ❤

I really loved how you both added something to the canvas I think that it’s so personal, imperfectly perfect and beautiful just as we all are.

I love how the painting is from both of you it was both of your hearts and feelings into something beautiful

Omggg I loved watching you guys make that painting come to life and I love that you two did that how you did it’s such a great representation of your guys relationship and how well you compliment each other love you guys so much 🤍

I'm excited!! You guys got this. You are strong and perfect. All my love from Michigan ❤️

this is so cute what you guys do for eachother. that baby will be blessed with you guys as dads!

I literally love the heart, and the meaning behind it being a strong foundation. Not only in the plasterwork that Ryland did, but in the little kiss of love to sign the piece by Shane. Now it is a "Us" piece for you two 💝

Both of your hard weeks combined came together to create a beautiful piece of art. Life inspires wonderful works, this one is not only moving it is deeply personal. It’s perfect. Prayers inbound for your family. RIP Snoop.

This are really relation goals. So sweet that you also just aprisiate what the other gives you, no matter the price. It is always so nice to see you two. Also, so sweet how Shane helpt with the artwork. It really makes it hole. But a hint for next time. Try it first on something small. So it doesn't get that disapointed. And for last, Rest In Peace Snoopy

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. RYLAND IS THE QUEEN OF DIY 🖤💯 love you guys 🖤

I love your painting! The heart completes it.
Rest in heaven, Snoop. 💙

Love the painting!! But I think you guys should move the lamp underneath it to the right side of the table. It looks off that the lamp is centered, when it already has a light on the wall above it.
That’s my two cents as someone who used to work at a high end furniture store! :)

When Ryland is the cutest Easter Mom ever 💗

I'm so proud of you both, you just seem to be in such a great place mentally, emotionally, in ur relationship etc.... u guys are gonna be the best parents and it's just so nice watching all the big changes you've made the last year can't wait for u guys to finally have ur family complete with a new baby! U guys inspire me and are proof that dark times don't last! Keep thriving guys! ❤

I love the painting! and the fact that you both contributed to it makes it so much better❤️

Awww that painting is beautiful! So much work went into it and the finishing touch 💖 worked so well 😍💖
I’m so so sorry for the loss of Snoop, sending love and Snoop is now with your soul family and surrounded by love and is happy 💖

I love you guys so much. I had a very serious back surgery almost 3 years ago and I started watching you tube because it took me 18 months to start being human again. I fell in love with all of you and am so glad to be able to watch your lives, thank you for sharing with us. This was beautiful and brought tears to my eyes, beautiful things come out of difficult things, especially when you have your person.

Rip snoop❤️ I love how much you guys make your pets into family. That’s an amazing quality I always appreciated with watching this channel. Your family has the biggest hearts!

As an artist, how I feel always comes out on the painting. I try not to create anything if I’m not in a good space. I want to leave a legacy of love, and that’s what your painting did. Congratulations!

the painting was proof that modern art that is conceptual takes TIME AND ENERGY AND FRUSTRATION… it’s not just some “kid doodle” that anyone can do

The final piece looked wonderful ♥️

It truly is amazing that what the piece of art was missing was something from Shane and how together you guys made something so beautiful. Makes me think of the two of you and how having each other makes your lives so beautiful.

The love you two share comes across in every single video you guys do! You're both very wholesome good people! The art piece is amazing and the name is just as perfect!

Bravo on the art piece 👏
RIP Snoop and condolences to your family ❤️‍🩹

Wish these were longer!!! I could watch yous all day! May even be doing a re watch of old videos 👀

I’m so happy for both of you ☺️I’ve been watching Shane since I was like 13 maybe younger and now I’m 17 and Shane and you have gotten so far in life❤️❤️ I hope all continues going good for you two 🥰🥰

I like the painting the way it was before the heart, but I love it now because you guys made it together and that's beautiful ❤️
RIP Snoop. I remember when I first started watching you, he was in those videos. He had a long wonderful life I'm sure ❤️

Love the piece Fabulous ! Great Job !

I LOVE the art Ryland, you have a good eye. Art is Subjective!!!!!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

Oh my goodness I love you guys SO MUCH! I love the love you guys have together, it’s perfect🥰! The art came out just the way it should…and now it holds so much meaning💗

It's noteworthy how ryland is always the one who keeps DIYing everything at home. Fixes things. Assembles. Picks up heavy items. Transportation of furniture. Things that I would expect from a physically stronger looking Shane. 🤭
You two are adorable.
Ryland has daddy vibes.

Strong foundation! It’s a really beautiful piece and you both did a beautiful job together. Btw I hope everyone’s having a beautiful day. Stay safe 🥹💃

I'm an artist, and I felt Ryland's trepidation, and then the disappointment when he didn't get a positive reaction TO THE CORE!
It's beautiful. Perfect for the room.
P.S. Art is subjective Ryland, it could have been "done" when it was monochrome. 😘

Shane is SUCH a Cancer (I am one myself) giving the most thoughtful gifts and believing in the power of the universe through his crystals. Also, I bought myself that Sugarfina box a few years ago and I have never once regretted it.

You guys are truly amazing.

Okay the art work you guys created was really beautiful !! It did symbolise the rship you guys share, a sturdy, creative, loving foundation. You guys should design unique pieces for the nursery when the baby is born, that will be so special and memorable for when the baby grows up

End result of both your art is gorgeous!! Love you guys!!

I think the painting looks really good Ryland!!

I love the combined artwork you created together! It is so symbolic of your struggles and the transformative powers of doing therapy and taking time to heal before leaping back into life again with love firmly placed in your lives as your "Strong Foundation".
I almost spat out my tea as I'm reading the subtitles at 27:45 ish when it says: "Oh I like it, oh I'm out of come breath!!!!!" LOL

Wow. I honestly love you two so much. Thank you for touching my life ❤️

love you guys so much, your relationship is the only reason I still believe in love honestly

I absolutely love the end piece of the art the best type of art is the type you can interpret a story, some kind of emotion, or a backstory

I actually like the plaster art. Might even try this myself! Well done Ryland

The painting looks amazing you and Shane are such a good team 💕
