Getting started in digital art can be intimidating. In this video I go through an exercise where we talk about layers and brushes and what you should learn first when learning to draw digitally.

[@allthethingswithjuliet3037]

I’m so obsessed with every video you make , I’ve always dreamed of being able to draw and you are finally helping me make that dream come true!

[@prudencewellinghoff7228]

Same here 😍

[@Pugcool200]

Same but I'll never achieve that

You're back!! and great timing too! I recently picked up digital art (and drawing in general) and was getting a little overwhelmed with all the different tools in the apps on top of practicing the foundations on how to draw. I've tried following other art videos and as great as they were, i find yours the easiest to understand and the most beginner friendly. I'm so glad to see you've got a course just for this! Will definitely give it a purchase and see how it goes! Thanks so much ^^

[@alexanderrobinson2335]

This is literally the exact video series I need. Been trying to learn to draw but the process of applying physical drawing tutorials to the digital landscape has been really difficult. Thank you so much for this!

[@SwedePotato314]

Dude I am right there with you. I’ve been doing traditional for almost 20 years and I knew I’d have to make the jump to digital… and it is like learning everything all over again. A lot of tutorials skip the basics and assume the viewer has some grasp of digital. So I was just trying to figure it out myself and turns out I was doing a lot wrong. Who knew?! Lol. Anyway, best of luck in your digital art journey!

[@lilyofluck371]

@@SwedePotato314 honestly so true. There's a lot of videos about what to draw, but not actually _how_ to do it. Like what all the tools do and stuff.

[@flyntwick]

Dude... Your personality and sense of humor was built for this. Never stop.

[@annanda_dandi]

Hi Brad, I feel what you described: I'm a beginner, and drawing is a hobby for me. I wanted to learn more, so I got a drawing course that started with figure drawing. The course is great, but it is so ahead of my current abilities that it has been more frustrating than enjoyable. It resonates with me the idea of having small wins while learning the concepts and skills, I love that! I just got your course, and I'll complete it now and leave my other course for later. I think I'll have so much more fun. Thank you. :D

[@czerwonygozdzik3915]

It's great that you decided to continue this project ! Your videos are always so easy to understand and follow - even for a not native speaker like me. Thanks for making them : )

[@isiahbrown831]

I’m slick proud of you, my guy. Your improvement from when I first began watching your videos is impressive and inspiring.

[@Grimangell135]

This is exactly what I was loiking for in terms of an intro video. I have been spinning in circles trying ti find ine that wasn't just about painting or only for a specific program. Thank you.

[@Gr95dc]

I just bought an extremely cheap drawing tablet and even tho I did not buy it for drawing specifically, digital art is something that has interested me for a long time, I just did not had the funds for even a cheap drawing tablet. I tried drawing on gimp (lol) but it wasn't fun and I felt lost, but this video and the one about hardware and software have really opened my eyes to the possibilities, so thank you for posting great content. Whenever my budget for non necessities increases, I'd like to purchase your course!

[@sarphar]

If you make a mistake, it's progress

[@isuckatusernames4297]

can't make a straight line even after hours of drawing expdrience. its just that way sometimes.

[@SmortMen]

Use the line tool bro. Or if the drawing program doesn't have that tell me the program name and I will tell you how to make a perfect line

[@Assassincodm945]

Maybe u are 8 year old

[@walontuoja4336]

This was the right type of content and tone of voice for me that I went and bought the 9-part digital course. Thanks!

[@SuperStoryMode]

This is just delightful! I'm so glad I found your channel! I'm working on creating the art for my KZbin channel prior to launch, and I have ambitions to become an author and illustrator in the future. I haven't drawn since 2012, due to a lifelong battle with anxiety and depression which almost beat me. Additionally, perfectionism and low self-esteem (a deadly combination) kept me from really improving as an artist in the years prior to my breakdown. But that's all over with now! I'm getting back in the game! I'm REALLY out of practice, I need a better grasp of the basics to begin with, and the digital side of art is COMPLETELY alien to me. Yet, I KNOW that I will succeed in achieving my dream! I see that you haven't uploaded a video here in a long time, but even if this is all you ever post this is EXACTLY what I need! Thank you, Brad!

[@EnglishStoryShared]

I'm completely hooked on every video you create! I've always aspired to become a skilled artist, and you're finally helping me turn that dream into reality!

[@bluecherry-hart4786]

Just what I needed thank you. Looking forward to the course, thanks for letting us know it exists! If you hadn't of mentioned it I wouldn't have known about it. *thumbs up* indeed

Tip for gross edges on fill tools. On some apps, every click you make with the fill tool after the initial one expands the color all the way around by a pixel. I know this works on Ibis paint and Photoshop, not sure about others though

[@dominic_19077]

You mention pushing harder to get more “paint” out, but in many graphics programs and apps, you actually have to turn that function on. For me personally, I actually don’t like that function much; plus it seems kinda pointless when I can just set how thick I want the lines and how much opacity they should have. But, yes, I understand that a lot of people love it and swear by it. On that note, I’m not a beginner, but thought I’d check this out anyway in case there’s something I didn’t know or just never thought of - or to reccommend to other people. I think it’s great that you’ve made this video.

[@dominic_19077]

For the fill tool, I actually use the magic wand tool, then increase the selection area by a few pixels (depending on the line thickness), so that it overlaps the antialiased parts. Then, on a layer underneath, I fill with the bucket tool set to “layer” instead of “canvas” and that works great.

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

I am so envious of your tools and apps. I have this blank tablet and a photoshop program. It's chained to my desk. But your tool looks so liberating and simply. I love that you can just use your finger to move some things around or make an imperfect line, but just straighten it out. Every movement feels like an all or nothing approach for my end. If I mess up, I can undo and try again, but that isn't progress. Your stuff looks so untuitive and appealing to me, but I bet it's super expensive.

[@Marcus-Maximus]

The app is 7$ and you can buy cheap tools like this that are really similar for less than 200$

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

@@Marcus-Maximus That sounds interesting. I currently have PC Clip Studio and a tablet that might be too big. But I am always looking to learn more. Could you give me a specific example of what I could do?
