500 Prompts #95 - SLICIN' THE SNAKE

[@DoodleDate]

Slicin the Snake?~ Risky click of the day! o:

[@WerewolfCas]

Doodle Date has someone been on Reddit?

[@JustMyo]

Omg hi I am one of your biggest fans!

[@aaleaf9687]

The way you draw mice is almost as cute as the way you draw ants. ALMOST.

[@KaseyTheGolden]

Move over ants!

[@coyoteyotee]

the point of having prompts is to just give you ideas of something to draw if you come up with a piece inspired by it who cares of the prompt is a big enough part of it

[@KaseyTheGolden]

I'm glad we can agree, hahaha.

[@KatelynMcCaigue]

Love love love this piece! I would totally wear this on a t-shirt haha Nice work :) and I don't think you copped out. I think as long as the prompts are present, even if they aren't the focal point, it still counts.

[@KaseyTheGolden]

A SHIRT?! HMMM...

[@mollydonnelly8397]

Kasey Golden yesssss please kaseyyyyy

[@annasimpson9055]

@@KaseyTheGolden there's a new kid in town.

[@taniani884]

Tip for using texture: use it ONLY when the texture of the object isn’t clear. Eg, it looked good on the mouse and her clothes since it conveyed the denim and fabric. It didn’t look so good on the knife since a knife is metal and clean of texture. This is a lenient rule tho soooOOO

[@wildmoon112]

kasey, you sound really happy in this video!! your voice is so light and positive, and has such a lovely cadence! hope we get to hear this in more of your voiceovers, and i hope youre having a great week!! x

[@KaseyTheGolden]

Aww jee, well thanks! I'm not sure what I'm doing different, but I'll try to keep it up!

[@TJToons]

*Every video is so exciting and new with all the prompts you do Kasey :) ❤ and yayyy almost 100!*

[@pastelcreativity9595]

The only two reasons why I clicked on this video: Because your channel is the best and I love it. And because of the adorable little mouse on the thumbnail! Edit: oh.. may... sunflower seeds... That's so many likes!

[@del_eris]

I like the way you illustrate chopped up things! It's gore but with clean lines. Or something like that.

[@betteloufiles1250]

Were did that mouse get those amazing pare of mom jeans!!!😂 Edit: dang this is the most likes I’ve gotten in a while

[@rayvonistired]

lol

[@sjsosokdksksk]

[@rainbowpancakes9795]

Artsy Creature The corrected way has actual proper grammar so it is inherently the better way. Either way doesn’t work. :)

[@yeetorbeyeeted7980]

The thumbnail was so cute and it turned out even BETTER and Kasey your fine prompts arent supposed to literally be in the art, it's to give you ideas! This prompt gave you the idea for this piece so you did it. That's my philosophy.

[@muis2617]

This REALLY looks like a children's book illustration and I love it

[@lilyt.9945]

I love your art style! It’s so cute and so simple and I love it!

[@laurenbrowning8244]

Drawing prompts are honestly just for inspiration, it doesn't need to be amazing! You're putting your good skills to use by getting your creative juices flowing. You always make something fun and interesting for the eye to follow!! ❤❤ Thank you!

[@alysonpaquette874]

@Pippa Drummond she didn't hate snakes It only that snakes in particular is a bad snake But normally snake are good snake

[@angelcakeart]

It's so dynamic!!! Every detail is so beautiful, I love it. There's also such a great cartoony look that makes it perfect. Also, the snake gore is awesome. I have a puzzle like snake thing and it really reminds me of that.

[@briegab6491]

Your use of color pencils as shading reminds me so much of a lot of the way medieval art looks so it seriously matches since you've got a hero that slays the big monster!!! I also love the faded distant birds idea!!

[@srenz2802]

Wow great art Lexus ones again! I really love the mouse’s outfit, and the shading of the snake. Also the extra birds and mice were a very nice touch to the piece

[@wildrattygirl7829]

I love this one it's so adorable and also slightly morbid and there is small doodles with complex ones! Everything good all mixed up!

[@madhbh]

I think the prompts are just there to give you a general idea. The real focus of this series is to produce something creative. I don’t think ‘coping out’ in this is really a thing, you know? So just be creative about this and don’t worry about trying to make the prompts the main focus. You’re doing great, Kasey!!!! :)

[@fishtrunks]

OMG I FINALLY FOUND THIS CHANNEL AGAIN OMG I AM SO HAPPY I LOST IT ALONG AGO AND YOU INSPIRED ME TO DRAW BUT I STOPPED FOR SOME REASON BUT NOW I MUST DRAW AGAIN AFTER FINDING YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 💞

[@macayleangelina9892]

This is not a cop out. This is AWESOME!!!!

[@emilymlau5813]

I love the combination of the flat washes of the watercolor and the texture of the colored pencil. Very pleasing to the eye :) Also, I really enjoy the one white mouse.

[@chenchi6131]

I love your art style, it is so, so, so unique, and I've never seen a style like this before.

[@aminawozniak4791]

I really loved that illustration! Even this shading with crayons looks really great! I agree with you that adding that black shade/texture with crayon was a bad idea. But it still looks cool. I love your style and goofy ideas you’re soo creative with this prompts

[@nerdylilpumpkin]

😱 Kasey! I really like how you did this prompt! I like imagining that the snake and mouse were somehow thrown into the air and your piece shows them in slow motion diving back to the ground. Somehow the mouse hasn’t fully realized their battle is over and they’ve won. Then the snake is just reevaluating its life, wondering how it came to this moment. I’m probably overthinking this, but I just love this piece!😍

[@littleblueclovers]

I love how the snake only looks mildly inconvenienced. Like he’s been defeated but he’s certainly not dead. I still really liked the idea that the belt was around the snake’s mouth, but I also love the final product :)

[@miikapm2]

Please paint with *JUICE*

[@blondelebanese9922]

Michael ! No, please, no juice. Is this a children’s channel??

[@macayleangelina9892]

What kind of juice? Should she try using different flavors of juice? Like, strawberry, orange, lemon, grape, CRANBERRY, etc.

[@BananononJakuzure]

@@blondelebanese9922 she uses a puppet to eat snacks in her snack drawing videos and has a cartoony style. tis too late. *embrace the juice.*

[@jakekerr744]

I like the idea but poor sock Kasey if it has to drink the idea

[@themuddler257]

Nonono, she needs to paint with *S p r i t e C r a n b e r r y*

[@ginasartcorner5686]

I love that you used colored pencils with this one for the shading. Gives it a bit of interesting change.

[@delaniaconthefloor]

I don't think it really matters how big of a part the prompts play! The point is to get you out of your comfort zone a bit and draw something you probably wouldn't have drawn otherwise. I think as long as you feel that happened then you are all good! And I have loved pretty much all 95 of your prompt results so far. No complaints from me! 😍

[@memorycollectorlive1216]

Kasey, I know that you aren't that familiar with colours pencils so to help you I think you should know about the following: 1. When it comes to colour pencils you can layer to achieve any colour you want. 2. If you want a smooth texture with colour pencils you have to options, burnishing and or colourless blenders. Either way has its pros n' cons, by example when burnish something it won't layer anymore, and some colourless blenders are toxic and flammable. 3. If you don't want your colouring to look streaky do small circles rather than lines. If want to know more about techniques you could use I recommend you watch Lachery Fine Art or read some books on it.

[@jhanaih.tavoglu8366]

Personally, I really love the subtlety of how you incorporate the prompts into the picture because then it becomes like an "I spy" sort of thing. Maybe that's just me. Regardless though, I love this one. The composition is so fun and the colored pencil texture turned out so good!!

[@krystal2202]

You have your own style and I like it. I wouldn't be able to have half of the creative mind you have. Good work, there are always going to be complainers, ALWAYS!!!!!

[@lailah5604]

This is cute. Even thought there is a cut up snake, THIS IS CUTE

[@emmuart]

I actually really love the coloured pencils in this illustration. They make - suitable for this motive - the whole picture seem "edgier" because of their rough texture and the dark shading; especially on the snake. I do agree that colouring in the knife was unnecessary but hey, we all learn by trying out. I also prefer water colours because I love to just take the primary colours and black with me when I paint outside while with coloured pencils I'd need to carry many more just to have a wide range of colours.

[@duckkhardt]

Something you might enjoy using is a colourless blender pencil crayon. I found out about them not too long ago and they're amazing to blend the pencils together and get a smooth look and gradient to it.

[@madysonraymer1925]

i really love the use of the colored pencils in this piece kasey! i think it brought everything together 🤠

[@mjpete27]

After re-watching this video I am remembering your more recent attempt with watercolor pencils. (Oct 19,2019) I think you just need to decide what you want from a supply or tool and work with it until you can make it do what you wish! I have switched between many supply's over the years and you can figure out more effects that you may want to accomplish, It does take TIME! Urgh! yep it is THAT four letter word! I have noticed more commercials in this run through of your prompt series. I do hope it continues to make you some money you did/do work so hard on these prompt videos! Keep doing what you do Kasey! We Love it!

[@wuukieandsoya]

😲 this is very refreshing. I'd never think to draw something like this 👏 I love it! ❤

[@ez8314]

Basically modern Redwall fanart and I am HERE for it

[@ollysmith7404]

I really love the color pencil and think that trying it again wouldn't be a bad idea! And even if you don't your art's still amazing!

[@ellapaez6080]

I'd have drawn a flamingo bc when I was like 5 my teacher read us a legend that said that two flamingos killed some snakes and used their skin as socks and then the other snakes bited the flamingos' legs, so that's why they stand on one single leg

[@32Koifish]

this is so cute, vey children's book illustration, plenty to catch the eye with bright color and whimsical theme

[@budderbro0037]

I've been reading this graphic novel series called "Amulet" and the way you drew the snakey boy reminded me of this smokey, serpentine thing called "Sybrian". Basically, amazing drawing and keep doing what your doing

[@nekumariimariko3698]

You said you didn’t like the texture on the snake but I think it really brings out the scales and it’s not a cope out! Love the drawing! 😍

[@lucyelcille]

The colours are so vibrant! I was thinking about a sock-snake monster, personally.

[@CharleRaeCafe]

I love how Vibrant the Colors Are!! You are So Talented! That availability of color choice is one of the big watercolor draws for me also.. especially starting out when you don't have as many colors but you can just mix them. Also the texture of the color pencil does work really well with the jeans .^_^.

[@mochiimilkers]

TBH i loved the picture you never fail with the cute and gory! i love it so much

[@brikhouse22]

you can use mineral spirits, gambsol or paint thinner to blend out the colored pencil if you want a smoother look or to try and fix an oops like the knife, and it won't affect the watercolor underneath.

[@artzyfartzy4926]

Kasey don’t be so hard on yourself of the prompt ideas🤣 it’s a fun learning process and I like how you always try something new in each one(btw they always turn out great)😉👍🏻 wish I had your unique cartoony style🤣

[@chaosmelody6665]

For rough textures like for fabric, fur, bark and rock, use colour pencils. For more smooth textures like metal, liquid, slime and scales use water colour. Hopefully this helps, I just wanted to say that I like this piece and my favourite part was the the shading on the pants, I thought the colour pencil was perfect there.

[@icqnfused_8976]

I love all the details in this prompt!! I hope you are really proud of this piece!! I would.. But im happy for a new prompt!! have a FANTASTIC WEEK KASEY!!! Im so wierd.... haha

[@monikaramgopal7307]

Your back stories are always so entertaining 🙂 loved this one so much

[@user-uk1du8mg9q]

Cool, kinda like Medusa for the sketch

[@julieelisabeth2857]

I loved this piece, so cute and creative, but dang, that knife 😂😂

[@din0saurking410]

Somesthing you might wanna play around with colored pencil texture is layering different colors on top of each other or layering white on top of other colors. You can get a glossy texture and it's really fun to play with.

[@mpgilbertusa]

Yeah, the texture of the colored pencils is really effective. I don’t mind the dark knife either. It seems to coordinate well with the dark color of the birds. And as for negative comments... they’re not worth your time. You’re doing great. This illustration was super imaginative! I think prompts are just a starting point and if you take it in a completely original direction, like this one, it’s perfectly fine. Definitely fun for us!

[@QueenOfDragons2130]

I love the texture of the color pencils in the prompt!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@iasnessy6701]

Ooo it would have been really cool if you had the mouse character high diving and cutting through the snake from above. But hey, your illustration still looks just as cool! Thanks for making these videos!

[@russiaarmata4123]

I am so inspired by your art style😊 thanks for everything you make!

[@02eastaugha]

I love this!, such creativity! Reminds me of basil the great mouse detective

[@inez6771]

i love this!! i dont care if the promts are the main event or not, the artwork is still great!

[@fuzzbeedunsolved]

i already know this is going to be so creative!!! love you, kasey!!!

[@jacba8313]

This seems like something straight out of adventure time, MP!!!

[@aetherstinks987]

I love the way you shaded the tiny mice!

[@KatieReadsKoziesAndMore]

I agree with you on the knife. I think doing some of the shading with watercolor and then adding texture with pencils might get you where you want to go overall. All-in-all, this is a successful first attempt. I especially love the mice and birds. 🙂

[@detvisor7700]

It's so... it's so clean....I love it

[@tinyfrogberry]

I love the way you coloured the mouses ! ❤

[@greasy_emo_vampire_666]

All of your videos make me so happy like if I'm sad I just look at your videos and get so so so happy. Love you girl❤😜😊😆

[@daviddelriov]

Love the details in the mouse person

[@ameliab2617]

When I first saw the thumbnail I thought it was colored pencil and got so excited, and then saw that it was!!! :)

[@js2426]

omg what if instead of the mouse cutting the snake's head off, it could be suffocating it with like a really big pair of socks. also i loved this prompt! the mice were sosososo cute

[@Smmurrs]

I love using colored pencils with watercolor! One thing you could do is use watercolor pencils then you could use a brush and smooth it out if you don't like it :) love your work!

[@cloudnado67]

i dont think you need to be so worried about having each prompt be an extremely key feature in each piece you do, as long as the words inspire you in someway, you're good! Thats what prompts are for, inspiration, not to limt what you're allowed do to.

[@snoopoop1]

“100 DoLlArS?! tHaT’s ToO mUcH!” i understand your pain Kasey

Man, watching your videos just make my day.

Dude, who cares if you follow the prompt closely or not? It's your art. You're having fun with it and it looks great.

[@yarielroman6593]

The jeans and the snake look great with the shading

[@emilypeddicord1293]

I LOVE how you draw your move!!!!!!

[@studioussquirrel5149]

The colored pencils add to the feeling and texture of fur and scales.

[@amateuraries]

I think everything you draw look fantastic

[@mjpete27]

I like your birds and your in charge of your drawing, set the prompts aside as you see fit or as much as a focal point as you desire. I prefer watercolor pencils so the mixing is always easier if I can not get the color or texture I want without water. OK back to the spot I left off. . .Yeah I skipped ahead!

[@littlemaybell567]

Your art is amazing!! Keep being awesome!!!😀😀😀😀

[@caileyshae8845]

I look forward to this each week

[@PurpleAmharicCoffee]

As long as the prompts are in the image, I don't mind. I actually enjoy it when you take the image in a completely new direction and use the prompts as accessories.

[@maggieburton5020]

i really like the colored pencil!! this reminds me of a children's book illustration (a really violent children's book lmao)

[@nataliacorreal3399]

I really like the intro music. I just fall asleep to KZbin sometimes and the I wake up to the toot toot tootoot toot

Hello Kasey! Grettings for Spain!❤❤ Your pictures are very beautiful!

[@_c0tt0nc4ndyyy_]

I love this illustration! It's so good, and the colored pencils aren't too bad! Though, I agree that the knife was too dark, but I do that all the time with colored pencils. I'll try to color lightly, but it always ends up way too dark. Oh well, we all make mistakes! Anyway, I love your art and hope you have a good day.

[@Mayannaise4]

Also, for colored pencils, try using one of those smudgy pencil things to get a smoother finish!

[@Memoryzailic]

It's okay, don't worry. I would have made the sock like a sack with a slice of snake meat but this is you and as long as it's in there I don't think it's ever a cop-out. It's to help with inspiration and things one normally wouldn't draw.

[@dariafirestar1393]

the snake's face is just priceless xD "why you do this to me"

[@Nick-fn9sy]

Bro! What should've happened was a comic of this kid in his own little play world where the sock WAS the snake and he was 'slaying' the snake!

[@mjpete27]

Still lovin' the birds ! Keep it going KASEY!

[@kaite6348]

You should try using water color pencils. Because they're water soluble, you can create a smooth transition between the texture you're wanting and the watercolor. And sometimes when you mess up and make something too dark (like the knife) you can sort of "erase" the pigment by putting enough water on it, just like regular watercolor.

[@lucieburelle3343]

For once, I disagree with you. You can mix colored pencils by layering and obtain what ever color you want. It takes more time that's all. You can also erase or lift some layers with a simple tool: scotch tape! Color pencils are painting tools too.

[@mairle460]

That's true! But I think that's a bit harder with prismacolor pencils right? I mean, you can definitely layer polychromos a lot (and often need to) but I'm not so sure about prismacolor pencils.

[@KaseyTheGolden]

I'm surprised this is the first time you disagree with me, hahaha.

[@leilawilliams2479]

the point of prompts are to give the artist ideas of what they could draw. as long as you draw something, you completed the task.

[@amongussusybaka]

“Slicin’ the snake” -Kasey, 2018 I feel like this should probably be the quote of the year too...
