In this video, I talk more about my personal journey as an artist and illustrator and how I find inspiration throughout ordinary life. I explain the ideas that speak most to me personally and the imagery I find compelling to sketch, draw, and paint. As I speak on these things, I've included footage of me studying strawberries for a future painting that I give a few sneak peeks into. This is how I find inspiration to create and come up with art and drawing ideas in my sketchbook and through painting.
Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel and shop as I begin my art career. I am incredibly grateful to everyone who has downloaded my brush and bought a sticker, it means so much to me as I build my career and content.

thank you guys so much for watching! feeling a little nervous about sharing more of the personal side of why I make what I make but you guys are always so supportive and understanding 💖 so thankful for such a positive audience!

@CinnamonMay30 10 месяцев назад

Do you have any advice on a cheap painting someone can make at home for a love one? Grandma, mom etc. Thank you, from yours truly Cinnamon May.

i love seeing people discuss the origins of their characters. its really cool to see so much passion and personal meaning.

@sketchesofshay Год назад

there's so much that goes behind with what we do!! I love hearing origins of ideas and themes in other's work as well 💖

@skelo1349 Год назад

I absolutely am in love with this video now. I’m such a sucker for when people talk about the deep, meaningful parts behind their art. I’m also a huge sucker for vulnerability. This is just so amazing

@sketchesofshay Год назад

its scary to make but its really important to me to share 😭💖

I discovered your channel a while ago and in such a short time you have become my number 1 art inspiration... Inspiration can really be found anywhere like you said in this video, but what I've realized is there's a big difference between being inspired by something and liking something. I used to think I was inspired whenever I saw something I admired but listening to you talk about your art process and personal experiences actually makes me want to create things and improve myself. Thank you!

@kyuubiart1239 Год назад

Honestly I love to see these behind the scenes of these artworks, it’s nice to see the similarities and differences between how paintings are done and thought of 10/10 strawberries

@cannedclovers3536 Год назад

I’m loving this schedule! It’s Always a nice surprised to see how you prep for a big painting! If anything it makes me wanna actually draw things that art characters!! Very help full!! Make sure you don’t tire yourself out 🍓🍓❤️💕✨✨

@sketchesofshay Год назад

I'm happy you are liking the new video schedule! It has been quite easy and sustainable with the kind of art I am creating, but thank you for looking out for me!

@daniw3858 Год назад

So excited for the new video! I love sketching along to your videos, they're so inspiring. I don't know if this is the right way to word it, but your usage of color is so satisfying :). I think it's quite true how OC's/other characters can come to life by looking at random objects, it's so cool. Keep up the great work.

@sketchesofshay Год назад

thank you so much!! and thank you for watching!💖

@lilyhoskin8603 7 месяцев назад

subscribing rn because you helped give me inspiration after not having it for so long because of how much I was focusing on my school exams, as well as helping me want to upgrade my art because I am still kind of a beginner lol, making me remember my love for drawing and creating objects

@jascherry Год назад

I really really enjoyed this video and learning how you came up with them. It does spark the idea of how to think of inspiration.

@vanillacreame153 Год назад

Recently discovered your channel and I have been having such a lovely time going through your videos! I have come to reeeally adore and admire you! There are topics that you have covered that have resonated with me so well. I love your thought process and insights.

@gamutgirl Год назад

I love hearing more about your characters and inspirations! There is something to be said about art that can be deep and also art that can be shallow. 😉 It's all in the mood. Thank you for sharing!

@sketchesofshay Год назад

thank you for watching!!💖💕

@chaseallen4756 Год назад

would you ever make a video talking more about gouache and how you use an under painting? it’s very interesting to watch as a beginner gouache painter. great video! really enjoying and being inspired by your channel ❤️

@sketchesofshay Год назад

I’ll keep that idea in mind!!💖 thank you so much for watching!

@finchwilkins1330 Год назад

I love hearing where you get inspiration from also the way you draw and study things is super interesting and unique, I really love your approach with everything and I'm working on a digital painting at the moment and feel like I'm struggling but it will work out 😅

@sketchesofshay Год назад

you got this!!💖

@yikesonbikes6519 Месяц назад

i’ve been struggling recently with art inspiration and am about to go into my third year of college for art ed so this video helped so much in giving me ideas for inspiration before the start of the semester! specifically the part where you talked about establishing a theme for the semester -such a good idea to aid in studio classes, thank u so much for sharing! 🫶 forgot to add: your art is incredible ‼️

@OHeyChrissy Год назад

I am currently working on a bullet journal.. I recently started a job and I'm struggling with a lot inside. I've never decorated or worked on a journal so I thought maybe it would be fun and help with stress. Since I started my new job I stopped being creative and I feel so tired all the time even though my job isn't demanding. I'm really hoping this helps. I miss being creative and drawing. ❤ Thank you for sharing these wonderful videos. I find it therapeutic to listen to other artists talk about their projects, daily life, struggles. Hope that doesn't sound weird lol.

@sketchesofshay Год назад

not weird at all, I’m so happy you can find comfort in my videos! I hope things can get easier for you as you get used to your job 💖 thank you so much for watching!

@ajipk4578 Год назад

@sketchesofshay Год назад

I'm so glad!💖💖

@olaczyk 10 месяцев назад

Your oc's have such a beautiful story and here are mine created randomly lol (just 2 stayed with me throughout the years) but thats just how they were made- I was bored LOL Love your paintings woah Thank you for the video

@nezyry2861 Год назад

I realy like this video! Showing more personal and emotional part of your art you reminded me that I do this too. I want to communicate though my art, so people could look at the pice and experience what I do, or what I intended them to. You actually always inspire me a lot, but reminder like this was wery important. It's the true intention of me making something. Makes me wanna paint something with my gouache :)

@sketchesofshay Год назад

YES definitely go paint something!! I’m glad you liked this video, thank you so much for watching!!🥹💖

@Onyx-the-tired-artist Год назад

I was drawing some character I came up with from the 1920s. He's just holding a flower in a field.

@duffywilliamss Год назад

This was such an interesting video, Shay, I absolutely love your the way you see things so much. Lately I have been in a very long art block, but your videos and just your work in general really pushed me out of it, so I guess I just wanted to thank you so so much!! :)

@sketchesofshay Год назад

that makes me so happy to hear!! thank you so much for watching!💖

@mochichimmyy Год назад

@teddybearmei8713 Год назад

i dont know why but you explaining this almost made me cry 😂 It reminded me of my characters and how they came to be also. my characters are a bear and a mouse and a rabbit. They all came to be from some snow creatures i made during the only 3 days of snow we had that year. Thanks for inspiring me and helping me remember that! and also i been making some hedgehog characters because i have been feeding 2 wild ones and theyre so adorable

@sketchesofshay Год назад

our characters mean so much to us 🥹💖

Oh my gosh! Maybe you said this somewhere else. But, did you grow up near Plant City? I lived there when I was a little kid and my family was from Lake Wales! Not that we ever crossed paths…I am ancient compared to you. 😂

@sketchesofshay Год назад

YES!! That’s the place 😂💖
