Hey Will! I'm a really old fan here, I used to watch your people sketching videos all the time like 8 years ago or even before that and they really helped me get inspired as an illustrator. I used to also leave them in the background while I would draw, I think I watched all of them. I really hope you come back some day with those type of videos! I think that is where true happiness is, with the things that we are passionate about. You have an incredible talent and I hope it's not going to waste, hope you're still drawing! I got back into drawing and playing piano myself and it made me reconnect to my old past and it feels great. Best of luck on everything, man. 👍 PS: I can't help but notice that your voice has changed as well, I'm not sure why this is but just want to say that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the voice you had in your old people sketching videos with the laughs in between and everything, you really had a contagious positive energy in those videos that was really helpful to a lot of people, hope you know that. Thanks again for all the inspiration!
Its been harder to laugh these days. I've been on the verge of homelessness for almost a year and can barely afford food and gas let alone to sit and sketch people around town for fun like I once did. I still laugh. But to set up a video camera and sketch and laugh the way I used to... I have found very difficult since moving back to Texas. RU-vid never paid very well and I stopped working in animation a couple years ago to try to develop another career path for myself. At the moment I am still hanging on. I appreciate your kind message and for sharing your thoughts. I pray for a return to joyful times.
I think compliment denial can be even simpler explained in that if you deny someone's compliment, you're kind of back-handedly saying they have poor judgment.
Very sad to see all your old sketchbook videos and watts videos gone : ((( really loved those and kept coming back to them as a source of encouragement
@@WillTerrell seeing just how much you improved from practicing and never giving up even when life was hard and if i believe im remembering correctly you thought you might give up on art at one point and stuck with it. :) I filled a sketchbook every month for years because of you and I’m now getting back into physical media, I’ve even started doing people sketching when I go out! Thank you will for bringing back the videos that continue to bring me so much motivation and joy 🥹
@@mangadrawer5282 I am so glad to hear that. Thank you for sharing. It means a lot to me. I have given up a few times. But I always seem to get back up and go again. I love hearing that you’re sketching when you go out. May you find a community of other artists to grow with and nay you fall in love with your creation. Keep smiling, my friend.
I am thankful you’ve found it helpful. It’s hard to tell sometimes if a video connects with people. What is something that you reached you with this video? Thank you for sharing your comment.
Have watched and rewatched your videos, listened to your words for years. Came back today to binge listen and I think I needed to hear this. Focus on things I can and not on what I cannot Thank you
In your people sketching videos you make me reflect on the way I was doing things, your videos used to bring me comfort, peace and wisdom. You made a diference for me so many times. God bless you man.
Returning to these people sketching videos after years because I remembered how much i loved hearing will tyrell. Man you brought light to my life so many times you are wise
Not sure why Will is posting a video from October of last year...this is what he posted on his Facebook a few hours ago. I don't get the feeling he's doing well. Will, please reach out to someone for help and, if you don't feel you have anyone to turn to man, do a live with US. "I am finding it difficult to function in this world. I can't keep up. I want to create and be with my kids. I can get parts to work and then something else breaks. I get paid but everything is overdue or overdrawn so there is nothing left. It feels like drowning year after year. I wasn't able to catch up on my rent and I will be evicted next week. Please pray for me."
@@___Q_ as far as I can see, it's still there on his page...posted 12 hrs ago. It's set to private and I don't know if you're a "Friend" on FB or not, but maybe that's a factor? 🤷🏻
I don't understand these strange spiritual guru videos you've been uploading since the pandemic. I've watched your previous videos for years and it was always like hanging out with a close friend who I admired. Now, your cadence and messaging sounds forced and I can't tell whether you are doing well or not. Take care of yourself and your family.
The world has changed much since I started posting to RU-vid. I am speaking to some of the challenges that I and many others are trying to understand about the world right now. Forgive me if it appears confusing to you. I assure you that for many others it is helpful and comforting. This is why I make videos.
Oh man, how could I even start, you helped me tremendously, I started sketch booking once I found out about you in late 2014 or early 2015, now Im working in the animation industry trying to make a name for myself. Always loved your videos, and your encouragement and community building was always great.
This is such an awesome video! Your church sounds like a lovely place, and we’re on the same spiritual wavelength. I’ve always loved observing and drawing people. Everyone is so unique and has their own light. I really loved being welcomed into your sketchbooks here! 🙌💜✨
Thank you for your comment and for buying the book. 🙂Its nice to know there are others out there going through the same stuff. Especially other artists.
Hi Will, Your spirit and sketchbook videos have had a very positive effect on my creative journey. I first discovered your YT channel roughly ten years ago. I was inspired by you as a person and as an Artist. Thank you for everything that you have shared in your videos! I wish you all the best!
