this is great man, definitely seeing the improvement and just remember that you can’t make art you love until you make a wholeeee lot of art you hate! the way you’re reaching out and talking to a lot of artist is super cool and it’s clearly making a big difference, also we use a bunch of the same reference pictures haha, god bless pinterest ‼️
Dude, you definantly deserve more attention for the quality of art that you make. Keep doing what you do, and I'll look forward to more from you in the future!
IT'S FINALLY HERE! yes I have finally dropped this damn value video lol took me long enough. I had a lot of fun during this time and would totally do it again! but maybe I'd take it a little slower next time... anyways hope you guys enjoy the video!! gonna be talking about that Maki artwork I teased in my last video soon!!!
such a huge improvement! it’s great that you’re compiling and critiquing your art but not being too negative! your reina and the flock of clouds was great haha but that maki at the end is insane! great stuff, your improvement is really showing!
thanks! yeah i try not to be too negative when it comes to my work cuz I really don't HATE anything I make, every artwork is a lesson learned! and I'll be talking more about that maki in a future video soon so stay tuned !!
@@countryisntgold yeah i totally get that, and that’s a sick mindset to have! looking forward to the next video, but since july is about to start are you gonna be joining artfight?
@@countryisntgold aw man artfight is super cool, basically it’s a month long art competition that lasts until the end of july between 2 teams. each team gets points by drawing characters from people on the other team, it’s a super wholesome fun “competition” where you draw other people’s characters and people draw yours! also it could be a fun video idea to show your works throughout the event. it also exposes you to a bunch of different kinds of characters you haven’t drawn before! cool stuff : )
great video man! i've never related more to an art video, and it's really inspiring to see someone who is fighting against their brain in like the exact same way i am to become a better artist. im going into my junior year as an art major and the most helpful class i took by far was a live figure drawing class, and having those timed 1/2 minute gesture drawings really helped me force myself to be more confident in my work and get my second-guessing brain out of the way, and it has been my biggest take away from school and i think the way youre incorporating it in your studies is amazing! love your style and im looking forward to your improvement!! : D
ayee thank you so much! I agree, more recently gesture drawings have been really opening my eyes when it comes to being confident in my work! they are so helpful.. and thank you for joining me on this journey!!
Drawing was always fun for me, so I kinda always did, but to most part of my life I just scribble lots of nonsense in paper, because I couldn't focus my attention at class, art also was one of the places I could run when problems arrived on my life, and in some ways still is. When I was a little child I actually tried to copy some stuff, and I would say I had talent. I realy had, but since later on I just never focus on doing, just randomly did on classes or whatever, I never actually got good. Until I decided to try on a digital table, and see how it goes, my first drawing on it, didn't sound like a first time try at all, I could feel how much I enjoyed, and how much I wanted to keep going, this like trigger something on my mind, made me realized that all those times I just did whatever, I actually put effort and enjoyed doing a lot, this opened my mind go greater ambitions, but I "knew" that I would never really be good at art, so I did it just for the fun, and if one day I get good then so be it. But I started to progress real quick, and I wasn't on a good place on my life, so I started to feel like my art was trash, and I was being harder to do whatever it was due to depression, even stuff that I loved like drawing, and it started to combine my frustrations with art, with my lack of motivation and joy, so I ended up stopping totally, giving up on it, until I tried a few times after a while, from time to time, without ever finishing a single one, It was like experiencing that stress all over again. But now I'm trying to get back at it, since I'm better now, and going in my slow pace. Remembering that the most important thing was having fun, to breath life into the characters I created or love, to put effort into something and then see it, even if it's not good, it's at least something. I wouldn't say now a days that my art suck, but I'm very very very very strict whenever it is about myself, I can't accept me failing or being dumb on stuff, so I just have to be perfect, do perfect, not literally a perfect art, but perfect to me, to the skills I know I have... I kinda expects the world from myself, I create this harsh standarts, and having to deconstruct them to be able to go back drawing is being a challenge. But I always loved and always will love drawing, and remembering this is what is making me able to go back
I started enjoying art more when I started looking at art of topics I actually enjoyed. For the longest time I always focused on skill and improving the quality of my own art that I veered off from the fact that I should be enjoying it too. So I started to dabble in fanart again, and it's quite nice!
Great Short! Trying to find a good way to fit a substantial amount of info and drawing timelapse into such a short format is NOT easy. It's harder than people probably think it is. 🙏
Very cool to have a monthly review of an artist’s art, I think we should all do that to see the output for a month, maybe revisit things and plan out the next projects :)
yay another future artist!! i’ll be honest i can’t give you the best advice 😅 but draw what you like! that’s the first step, but i would suggest searching up videos about this topic 👍 they’ll be super helpful
I think the Tifa illustration was petty cool. The pose is not bad honestly, could it be better, sure. But I think you did really well, don't be too hard on yourself. Glad to see you're back as well.
i am once again back with another video!! May is over so I decided to go over some of the art I made during that time. be prepared to see the good, the bad, and the REALLY ugly art i made LOL enjoy!!
I recommend you start making Shorts if you have time. It could be a way for you to put out more content while also maintaining the quality of your main videos. You can also use it as a way to show off the less completed stuff and just show us what you're practicing. I for one think your energy and passion for art are infectious, and some Shorts to hold me over til the next main video would be great!
@@countryisntgold LET'S GO! Looking forward to em, and I usually HATE Shorts. But I think they're a great eay for artists to post cute little videos and updates.
My favorite part of sharing art is I get huge support and honest critiques when I post WIP stuff. It makes the learning process so much more enjoyable when I have the prospect of using it as a way to interact with others.
I loved this video sm :( For me, art's had its moments of becoming really fun, specifically one time when I actively wanted to do it over other things like u said! It was such a foreign feeling lmao I tend to avoid art a ton despite it being my dream I want to fall in love with the process and stop overthinking everything.... Videos like this only make me even more hopeful about that idea :) Thank you for sharing your art journey! I'm gonna love keeping up with you and said journey!! Have an awesome day <3
thank you! i hope you can fall in love with the process cuz art really can be so fun! i’m rooting for you! also thanks for keeping up with my journey! i appreciate the support 😎
I’ve been drawing since my childhood.. fast forward to being an adult, I only felt the sense of fun in drawing in my 30s. The joy that I felt is similar when I was watching Saturday morning cartoons, way back..
I spent most of my art university not knowing what I wanted to be my main art focus and when I started drawing comics it all made sense. Every panel and every pose was rushing to me when i made my first comic and then more and more. Of course I had a burnout but as of right now I feel like I can draw better than ever.
You’re really motivating me to draw and I’m looking forward to being able to draw things from my head. Funny enough I’ve been there before but insecurities wouldn’t let me progress, so now that I’m motivated and slightly delusional and eager to start drawing again 🎉
thank you! and thats awesome to hear, go out and make that art!! I draw from my pc so I record my screen with OBS, record audio with Audacity, and I edit with Davinci Resolve. good luck with the channel! 🫡
I think that you're doing great in your art progress, and I can completely relate to what you're saying about seeing young kids making amazing art. Its breath taking, I think it's so awesome, and I wish I was able to achieve that level of art at that age, but I didn't. However, it's really cool that the art community is quite supportive. Also, discipline is what I struggled with, but I was finally able to overcome it 😂 Anyway, I think you're doing great and keep on drawing 😊
thank you! yup it really is awesome. the art community being super nice and supportive really suprised me 😯 im very thankful for them, it makes me wanna keep making even more art! also congrats on overcoming that!!
