HOW GRAY IS TOO GRAY?! | Art Using Every GRAY PEN, PENCIL, MARKER, WATERCOLOR, ETC I Own

[@jasminrainbow1213]

idea: put a bunch of emotions in a hat (eg; angry, sad, happy, scared, embarrassed). Draw the sketch/outline. and THEN pick an emotion. So the emotion comes from the colouring or added extras. I think it would be a good test and use of colour theory

I actually liked the small smile. It made it seem like she had fallen asleep and she was dreaming, and what may seem like depressing to us is peaceful to her, perhaps representing a reprieve from the chaos of the world, as the loud colors and noises fade to soft gray tones.

Most people don't realize that beauty can be found in darkness sometimes. The true beauty of this piece is that you poured much of your true self into it, I think. I see it as a kind of tribute to the person you lost and imagine it has more meaning for you than some of your other art. That's not to say that you don't put yourself into your other art or that your other art is lacking meaning. I'm just saying I feel this one is maybe a bit more meaningful than others.

[@ayushijha5958]

A tip for the people who have to swatch their colours every time they use:- Cut out 1cm×1cm boxes (small basically) from your sketchbook paper (or the paper you use usually) and make swatches on those cut out boxes. And then tape them to the barrel of your marker... You'll never need anymore swatching! I personally use water based markers. So I've taped the swatch of the marker and the swatch of water mixed version of it. It helps with taking out the desired colour with having to test them all

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

Nice tip. I have Copic markers for skin tones and it took me a while to find one that works for certain characters I have made.

I have to admit, this is one of my favourite challenges. Having every all of one colour from your own art supplies kind of forces the mind into creativity. Like the impression that colour gives you, wheather that's sad, happy or angry. You are able to make that colour coresponded with the "vibe" that colour gives YOU. It also forces you too add more detail, where you thought it didn't need more detail. That is if you're fully committed to the challenge ofc.

She may be all gray, but the drawn character for this one is really pretty

[@arianahparpa6052]

it's amazing how no matter what my mood is you get me to feel like doing art. It's amazing thank you.

[@meekodraws5857]

This was such a great way to make art with only the color grey! The poofy clouds kind of add a cheery vibe to the not sad but not happy vibes already going on 🤗😁

[@TemiDansoArt]

Your thumbnail spread looks like a masterpiece 🔥

11:40 U can ignore this lol

[@StudySphere-o4q]

This reminded me of my single black sharpie- idk why And this kinda looks like a pencil drawing - all black and white-ish 😅 But you're so talented you can make even GREY look GREY-T

[@ghost_shivers5276]

it does look GREY-t

Waffles: Grabs paper for face... Me: That girl's getting a mask... Waffles: Err no, she's getting a whole new face!

[@dragongirl6876]

Stop saying that you're butchering your drawing!!!!! They all turn out so beautiful at the end! I honestly love the silver. It really brings out the lines, and it makes the drawing so interesting to look at!

[@CalicoCoffee101]

I love this, your videos are so different to other artists, they give me inspiration to draw, instead of making me think that I'll never be that good, and it always seems like you're enjoying yourself, which I very much hope you are, have a nice day!

[@mirandaaralyn]

I’m definitely in that “gray, just existing” stage right now so I understand how you feel

[@taytaythehufflepuff8532]

Here on behalf of your similar questions to many people. It won’t take people telling you your art is great. The praise will feel good for a little while, making you motivated to create all the art in the world (art being a general term as I’ve felt this in both writing and drawing). Eventually you’ll bump into burnout. But burnout doesn’t mean you should quit. Break are good, and if you’ve created a lot nonstop, then taking one might be a good thing (usually when I put down one hobby, I’ll pick up another-at the moment, I’m writing a lot more than drawing, but the last few months, I drew more than wrote). But don’t just give up. If you really love creating art, you should keep trying to do it (plenty of videos all over the internet about getting motivation to draw/wanting to do so again). Even if it’s hard, you should still work at it if it’s something you love. If you’re in that “grey/gray, just existing” stage/mindset, then you should probably focus on your mental and physical health before obsessing over your art.

[@samanthavandoren2007]

I really didn't like the paint Overtop of everything when you did it, but when you went in with that super silver after, I was so happy it was all so dark so that silver felt as magical as it did! This turned out fantastic!

[@ToriKlepto]

This is actually my favorite art piece you’ve ever made! Love the gray

[@k.allen007]

"But like a good little idiot I continued to follow the dumb rules I had set for myself" basically describes my whole life. 😂😂😂

[@aleegymnast4468]

How is she so good!😩 I love your work! 🥰

[@hannatuibe8491]

Everytime she does something new, adds some new touches/improvement to the already perfect drawing. My heart beats out of my chest and i'm like, 'please don't ruin the drawing, please don't ruin the drawing.' Lol.

[@misshoney3888]

For the past few months i wasn't able to watch Waffle's videos, but i just LOVE the fact that when you come back you just have a wonderful sweet and kind vibes, just little simple jokes, amazing art and cheerful voice I won't lie if i say it's my kinda therapy and i'm so thankfull to you Waffles to still doing this amazing content I just wanted to write this eventually since i usually just silently watching your vids

I love the metallic in it; it’s the light in the depression. I love the end product.

"So hey." And that's how you know that something great is about to happen.

Not me yelling “nooooooo” when you hit the face with that posca pen 😆 I’m glad that the double bypass face transplant went well! It came out great! (Or well grey!) *edits for sp*

[@dumpsterfire6946]

“You’d be hard pressed to find someone who’s favorite color is grey” my favorite color is indeed grey lol. Grey is the ultimate form of beauty in simplicity and I really think it’s one of the most versatile colors out there and i think it’s amazing how much depth can come from it despite it only being one color, the way shades of grey contrast each other and blend together is awesome. Grey is also just a calming color as well. It feels still and serene.

This comment explains my whole art career

[@iznerobloxxx]

This video relates to me atm. Ever since 2019 ive been really sad and ive though about ‘giving up in life’ but whenever I watch this, I feel like im not alone so thank you. ❤️❤️

[@rm.makes.me.smile_]

I’m only 3 mins into the video but I would love to see a final draft grayscale of the “flower/plant” thumbnail! Plants and flowers are almost always represented as colorful so it would be awesome seeing them completely grey. It would also fit the narrative that when you’re feeling grey it’s hard to see the color in life around you.
