What To Draw... When You Don't Know What To Draw 

"Want to be a story board artist? Go board...some stories..." Oh yes

I watched this and then ended up sitting down and staring at a blank sheet of paper. Because I lost my pencil. I'm an idiot.

I wish I had the skill to put the pictures I see in my head on paper

Me: Searches what to draw Scrolling... Scrolling... Scrolling... Gets interested on a video Watches video Forgets to draw

When you have art block Me: Maybe I could draw- Art Block: NO! JUST SHUT UP. NO IDEAS. Me: please? Art Block: NO! Me: fine...

im 2 mins in and i already feel like i can rule the world. youre really motivational jazza

I made art It is called ‘white on white’

Really, I just started my sketchbook, and every time I feel like being ready to draw, I have no clue what to draw. I'm always drawing something really weird, and that is also sometimes hard to come up with something really weird. *like if you agree man*

Laziness is stopping me

"Draw randomness" **Draws squiggles across the page**

please please draw a post apocalyptic nazi gummy bear. i want to see it.

When ever i feel like drawing i dont have any thing to draw but when ever i dont want to draw i have a million things to draw .

when i know what to draw: alright get my sketchbook get my pencil get my everything i am ready when i dont know what to draw: tries to draw a mouse but it ends up looking like a turd

The Draw Something Challenge Search up "Something" on Google. The first thing you see, you have to draw.

*sees video* *opens drawing program* *tries to draw* *isnt satisfied* *gets frustrated* *closes drawing program*

When I’m not really trying: I draw a masterpiece When I’m not: I’ve got a crap on my page

"Find some mundane object to draw!..." me: *logs onto Facebook* me: *puts ex boyfriend's name in the search bar* me: *finds any picture of him* me: oh joy, i found a mundane object to draw!

Shit write a book dude.

Jazza: Draw and object Me: *looks at phone then imagines it with a smiley face* welp, I have to start somewhere...

I made my best piece of art It’s called “a snowy, white world”

Does anyone else get inspired to draw by watching Jazza?

I dont get why people Say the have terrible art. Art is something you make,even with just anything. "I have terrible art" or "I am terrible and no good,very bad at art" You are WRONG. Everything around you is....ART. see that chair?yeah that is ART. see that shirt you never really wore?ART. why is it called art? SIMPLE. People put their effort into something they WANT. Did you notice that Old wooden chairs have pretty designs?welp,people made those designs...see?ART. Even with writing.ITS ART.the curves of every letter that you write. Okay,Okay,people say,"I didnt even put effort into this SANIC THE HEDGEHOG™ drawing!" but. you drew it. You literally made the Graffite(is that how it's spelled?) from the pencil,touch the smooth surface of the blank peice of paper. even if it looks bad. EVERYTHING IS AN ARTWORK. EVEN YOU. YOURSELF. THE BLOOD-FILLED SKINBAG CREATURE WITH ORGANS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE READING THIS. you are a beautiful artwork. everyone of you.

draw something momdain.... brain: Scissors me: *draws scissors* mmmmmmmmhhh *add flames to it: brain: oh oh me: *evil laugh* *5 hours later* me: I GOT A SCISSORS WITH FLAMES, BLOOD, SUNRISE BACK ROUND, WITH A SEXY SIDE KICK. brain: i knew where this was going, i tried to stop you, but you were in that phase, and i was doomed to fail............ good job.

I tried to do a dot. .....I failed ;-;

*Insert "Just Do It" Video*

go animate, but don't use GoAnimate

I drew randomness.... I filled a page with twerking sausages.

I made some art once... I call it blank space

*comes home from school* Me: ok, I've had a productive day at school. Now it's time to relax. *watches draw with jazza* *goes and stares at a blank piece of paper* Me: THIS IS SO HARD. IVE FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING

#JazzaIsTheNewBobRoss

loved the third option. I'm going to try that. Btw, am I the only one curious what his hair would look like without hair gel?

jazza: “When you brake past the paper you will find - Me: “The table” Jazza “Interestingly enough- Me “ThE TAblE!” Oh not the table.. pfft!

Draw with Jazza you should go on ted talks😁

Damn you should really become a motivational speaker lol

The best feeling an artist feels is when they find an empty page in their notebook

Quote of the Year: "it's not the few pieces or artworks of theirs that you have seen, that makes them exceptional and talented, it's the thousands that you haven't" - by Josiah Alan Brooks (aka Jazza)

YOUR VIDEOS ARE ON MY ART CLASS!!!!!!

*wipes tear from eye* well said 👌

"it's the Hunger you have... " I'm always hungry 😊

Jazza: you wanna be an animator? Goanimate

I literally just paused the video and started drawing Jazza

"Post apocliptic nazi gummy bear" my head "PLEASE DRAW THAT!!! PLEASE!!"

I tried to draw a pair of scissors, but accidentally leaked a gen 8 pokemon.

I see it in my head I just can’t put it on paper

*walks into room* let's see what can I draw *grabs the jazza app* perfect it says:draw the hulk with one wimp arm and one muscled arm

This timing is unbelievable. I was just wondering what to do with this blank page before be.

When I was bored and wanted to draw but didn't know what to draw, I looked around and saw my marker collection. I drew EVER SINGLE MARKER as people. Dark colors had dark personalities.. Light colors had light personalities..

Optimus prime fighting godzilla. In space. With zombies.

Am I the only one that really wants Jazza to draw a post apocalyptic nazi gummy bear?

You look like a much younger Gordon Ramsey jazza

The answer is so much simpler than this. Draw a cube, a sphere and or a cylinder. If you don't know what to draw, do that. Pick one, and shut down your mind, stop thinking, and draw your first line, then as soon as you have the first line down, start thinking again, and think really hard about how you can make this cube, box or sphere look as good as humanly possible for you. As soon as you've done that, just go ahead and draw anything, first thing that pops to mind, draw it, first idea that comes to mind, do it, don't think, just do. Fail miserably, sure, but do anyways. You were spot on in the video that the reason for this is the high expectation, but that's not all the reason, that's just one of the reasons. People very rarely don't know what to draw, people usually have something that they want to draw, they just know they can't draw it, people who are very good at drawing and know themselves capable of drawing just about anything, those people rarely find themselves wondering what to draw, they might however get bogged down a lot more in how to draw it different than last time. So, one thing you could always draw is that thing you know you want to draw and also know you can't draw, setting out to just go ahead and fail, and fail hard, that's indeed a very powerful way to start, expect failure, but try your best anyways. But there's another lurking secret problem that many people don't know about, it's this barrier of entry that gets created when you think too big and I'm not just talking "draw complicated human body, yes!" no I'm also talking "draw 30 boxes!" or "draw one face" I mean sure if you've drawn tons of faces and it's easy for you then yeah, you're thinking small, but if you haven't, then it's big, and you subconsciously know that you can't do it, you subconsciously know that you are inevitably going to fail, so expect the failure, hope for success and seek out the unknown. The unknown is a beautiful thing, because when you venture into the unknown you stop subconsciously knowing whether or not you'll fail, you can't know the unknown after all. Try drawing the exact same thing in a different way using different techniques, what's gonna happen? No one knows. That's where improvement really happens. Some people might need to think so small that they only set out to draw "3 lines" or "triangle" (yes, I'M GONNA DRAW A MOTHERFUCKING TRIANGLE BITCHES! STOP ME IF YOU CAN!) as small as it takes to get them to just start. Although while there is wisdom is this, there's more wisdom in that the reason they are not drawing is because they are too busy thinking, stop thinking and just fucking do it, that's all it really takes.

Jazza: and all you need to be creative is just draw anything it does not matter as long as you don’t leave it blank. Me: *draws tiny line* Also me: yes!!!! I’m creative now!

I'm in love with your personality and videos! Baylee jay sent me and I'm subscribing! These tips will help me with my art. :)

Jazza is such a daddy.

Here's what happended when i did this. I drew the lamp in my room. I then drew some screaming scissors. Then i got the inspiration to draw a person looking terrified and scissors trying to get them. Yes! Creativity! Danke Jazza!

Before I wanted to be a fashion designer before.....I'm only 10. But know I want to be an artist because I'm really good at drawing, and I really have artist block most of the time I dont know why, but it just happens and that's why I am watching this right now. But I will try to do my best to be one of the best artists in the world😊❤✏

Here's a tip I use when I'm stuck. I get a piece of paper and draw a random shape. If I can see an image with that random shape I finish it off.

Me when im drawing Step 1:Watch Jazza Step 2:Draw Something Step 3:look at his drawings Step 4:look at my drawing Step 5:Say "im an idiot This looks like Shit 😂"

When I don’t want to draw I always see paper and pencils in my room, but when it’s time to draw I can’t find anything * not even a pencil

I came here to find out what to draw but man did he go deep with this! 😂

I'm going to board some stories. Want to come?

Honestly this really helped me I'm only 11 so I feel like I can't draw but this is so true and helps a lot. Thank you Jazza,

Me: *looks at title* Also me: so relatable

WOW! That speech in the beginning actully makes me gonna go make some animations :D I thought of don't doing it first :/

I like to listen to music to inspire me

Jazza are you Australian?

Me:"I want to know what to draw when I don't know what to draw" *looks at title of this video* Me:well that helps

Jazza's the type of person who is bordering the top of his field, but doesn't care about competition, so he helps out everyone on the bottom.

Great. Now I want to animate a post-apocalyptic nazi gummy-bear XD

Holy crap, this is actually really deep, and really helped me!

"I didn't say animate good. " WELL HEY I fit that criteria!

When I don't know what to draw I think "Noun, Verb, Adjectives" For example Dice run green cartoony, so a green cartoony dice running, draw that and then do another one like "girl swimming chibi dyed" or a chibi girl with dyed hair and she's swimming. You can even add "with". Chibi dyed hair gi l is swimming WITH her dog.

Ooooorrr... You could always watch Shia LeBouf's "Just do It". If that doesn't get you moving, you're a lost case.

Post-Apocalyptic Nazi gummy bear..... You sure have a wild imagination😂

Whenever I actually have good ideas, is when I'm at school.

What I do is look around and find three objects. Then I combine them. Say I see a pair of scissors, a tissue box, and a toy car. I would draw a tissue box driving a car and getting attacked by scissors. Or I ask my brother for two adjectives and a noun. He might say giant, scary, orange. So that's what I'd draw. That's just how I do it.

Looks at the scissor, turns into a transforming robot...wth is wrong with my mind.

but what if on that blank peice of paper i draw... a blank piece of paper. then the blank piece of paper is no longer a blank peice of paper but the blank piece of paper i drew is, still, a blank piece of paper.

These stories won't board themselves!

THAAAAAAAAAAAANK YOU JAZZAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

I literally jus started on procreate not knowing what to draw,5sed later i scribbled some shit down i got a notification for this video and here i am

I do get the point of what you're saying, but it's kind of annoying [as you yourself point out]. How do I do the thing? "Oh, well, you just do the thing and it happens." Yeah, but what do I do to START doing the thing? "You do the thing, and then you've started the thing." JUST TELL ME HOW TO DO THE THING! "JUST! DO! THE THING! IT'S NOT DIFFICULT- JUST DO THE THING!"

Jazza: "Look around!" Me: But Jazza, all of my stuff is packed?!

ok, but I still suck, so what do i do now

The mundane option is how they make new Pokemon

Is this where #FrenchJazzaAccent started?

Draws a dot on the paper* IM FINISH🤣🤣🤣🤣 This is a joke

I tried listening to music I love and I got so many ideas that started flowing through me! I've heard people say listening to music may distract you while drawing but it helped me. I recommend people to try listening to music while they draw and see if it helps with ideas. 😁

here from baylee jay! love the channel

art block is my default, and every once in a while i come out of it very briefly

I like drawing people... Because I'm terrible at drawing them

You want to be an animator? Go animate... Wait... Go... Animate? GoAnimate. OH HELL NO!

Great advice! Thanks Jazza

Dammit Jazza you made me cry happy tears. I'm four years late to this but I needed it. "It's not the few pieces or artworks of theirs you have seen that makes them exceptional and talented, it's the thousands that you haven't." I needed that. I really needed that. Sometimes when I look at artists whose work I love, I don't see them as people. I see them as some sort of artistic god that was born into this world with a skill set I could never attain, some divine gift that only a handful of mortals are blessed with, but that's not true, nor is it fair to them. I am sure each one of them sweat and maybe even cried over pieces that just didn't come out just right but they never gave up on their dreams - it's not fair to take that hard work and perseverance from them by assuming they just...put a pencil to paper (or stylus to screen) and draw like a 3-D printer, well, prints: line by line of flawlessness until a final product is there for everyone to see. No, they made mistakes, you're so right. Hundreds upon hundreds of mistakes but they kept going and pushed through, learned from them (or got help/direction), and became the artists they are today. So there is hope for artists out there like me who like what they do but are always feeling like what they WANT to do is just out of reach. So thanks, Jazza. Thank you for reminding me to stop being so hard on myself, and to take chances, make mistakes, and keep pushing forward. Godspeed.

As an artist, I have great difficulty pushing myself to get to work on stuff, whether it's art, animation, videos or school assignments. Drawing is definitely one of my favourite things and I hate that I still have to work around so much anxiety and self doubt. This video speaks to my soul. Now I want to rewatch all the videos you mentioned before and try out all these exercises, and I'll be doubt-free in no time. Jazza, you're my hero.

Please, draw post-apocalyptic Nazi gummy-bear!

Draw me like one of your French girls.

And for digital artists they will be staring at a blank piece of virtual paper produced by tiny tiny LED lights in the colors of red green and blue all activated to make the color white.

My friends and classmates often look at my drawings and criticise them. Sometimes I'm like "Alright, I'll do it better next time." But when I draw to have fun and not to spot mistakes and correct them I don't really want any criticism at all...

Oh look it's Jazza I'll draw that
