Yes Tina... you have inspired me to go out and purchase some of the materials and mediums that you recommend and I too have started living again!☺️. The love of art has been embedded in my soul my entire life and I admire you for going in that direction. I have made many mistakes and joined corporate America early on😕, fell into debt which has all kept me from my first love. But nothing fulfills me more than ART- creating has pulled me through some dark times, including 2020! Beautiful work and always a pleasure to watch. Thank you for always sharing some really wonderful tips.💜
The most important thing with art challenges is knowing when it’s okay to give up. For me, inktober this year just wasn’t feasible, due to a plethora of mental health issues and general life crap. The purpose of the challenges is to grow, and to challenge you (duh) but they’re also supposed to be doable. It’s totally okay to extend the time of the challenge, lower the total number of pieces, or just stop completely. Just thought I’d add my two cents to this conversation. Great video, btw! I love how the piece turned out, and I’ll definitely apply these tips to the next challenge I attempt (especially the mood board idea).
Each piece turned out so beautifully! I love the thought process behind each design, and the backgrounds really bring them all to life. Thank you for being such an inspiration, great work!
I just decided to challenge myself to do 30 days of my own prompts (i hate premade ones) so this video is extremely helpful! I skipped out on inktober and with all the breaks and whatnot during December, i think it would be easier to find time off of school. My first prompt is redesigning my first OC. Ever. She's just a pink haired chick with blue eyes, a blue hoodie, and black pants. I've come a long way with my designs.
I love literally all of the illustrations in the zine! I'm an aquarius and I honestly love pirates and that time period so much holy crap these are all so perfect!!! also very nice backgrounds I know you don't do them that much but when you do you really excell at them
The tips you mentioned were basically how I made it through my art challenge this past year! For "listen to podcasts in the background' I definitely put on many of your videos as accompaniment hehe
Some great tips I plan to take in, when I do challenges I always end up stopping half way and its stressful because I want to finish it. Anyways amazing artworks very beautiful and well planned, its always nice to hear you talk and watch you draw its very relaxing 😊
All of the illustrations are gorgeous! I recently did an art challenge for October and sketched ahead in prep and found the challenge so much easier to manage on the days I had done the sketch because once the challenge starts its so easy to get overwhelmed. Great tips and always a pleasure to watch your videos.
i'm a virgo and i love your take on the virgo!!! i'm not really practical or analytical haha but damn do i love the colour scheme you used and the gorgeous night scene w candlelight. i also love your aquarius pirate!
This collection turned out STUNNING! The poses, environments, everything is just perfect! Every bit of effort you put in really paid off. I’m especially in love with the Virgo and Taurus ones, their color palettes are just so striking and cohesive. You really outdid yourself with this one, Tina!
There’s so much great advice in here. I have a really hard time at the end of semesters and I’m taking some art classes right now. Thank you for sharing this experience with us! Everything came out wonderful. The timing of the video was great especially since it’s wintertime and a lot of people will be struggling with seasonal depression.
man, this all looks so stunning! really well done! also I have to say that I love the character you drew for Cancer, the nod to South Asian culture with the costume is so gorgeous (I might be a bit biased lol). so as a South Asian whose sign is Cancer: I approve lol.
This is exactly the video I needed right now 😅 I always struggle to stick with an art challenge because I get so into trying to make each prompt perfect that I burn out and give up (and I've found that I've started doing that with my youtube videos which is a p r o b l e m)
great advice!! I love how you interpreted every sign, my faves were scorpio and virgo (my own sign! hehe), your paintings are so beautiful and vibrant I hope I can create something similar in the future!!
@@imawonder Your are welcome! i just have to tell you, you are a very inspiring artist and i appreciate all you do here on youtube i learn so much from you.🥰 It blows my mind how almost digital your creations look because of how concise and beautiful they are, each stroke of your brush feels and looks perfectly placed. & i also love that you are a fellow anime lover 😋 if you were to come out with a manga i would be first in line lol
I LOVE THIS IN SO MANY WAYS, I've always been scard make my own challenge because i find it dramatic or silly but i think i will start a new challenge because of u 💞💞❤
I just finished Huevember, my first art challenge and I wish I’d planned! The planning took more time then the painting!! It was exhausting. I’m glad I stuck with it as I definitely improved but wow the effort ! I’ve loved all your prices in the series- they are all so beautiful and this final piece really brings everything together. It’s also nice to hear you discuss adjusting your expectations I don’t think I’ll do another 30 day art challenge till Brushtober next year but I might do some of the shorter challenges!
Yes exactly! The planning stages I find really can take the longest. Huge props to you for completing Huevember, that’s a huge accomplishment!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for the kind words!!
Love Love LOVE all of these!💕🤧 And Tina if you feel like having a break then it's totally fine if you don't post your video this week we've already been blessed by this video!✨ I'm sure the other's wouldn't mind either if you upload a video this Friday 😌
Was this image inspired by a joan of arc painting? I can't remember the artists name but I love this piece and have referenced it before- this pose and armour reminds me of it, lovely work 🙂
If zodiacs interest anyone here, play Sayonara Wild Hearts! No, this isn't shameless promotion, but rather me simply suggesting something new! Edit: Great piece! Keep up the great work!
every other sign: people of this sign are described as magical or diligent! sagittarius: they got a bow. no disrespect or hate to the explanations! i just thought it was funny to expect a cool explanation or like a personality trait for sagittarius sndjdn
