I DREW a PORTRAIT for RAVEN SYMONE!?

[@ssavaart]

I love it, Christian! Absolutely brilliant! Raven is the nicest person. Did you know she's a wonderful painter as well? So talented.

[@BunnySpaceMachine]

Hey!! Fancy seeing you here! 🙃

[@Jacob42086]

You 2 gotta collab sometime! ❤😂

[@nuzzh7900]

It’s Scott!

[@BlackBeanCMS]

AHHH!!! THANK YOU SCOTT!! RIGHT! Raven is so awesome! And YAS! Her WORK IS GORGEOUS!!

[@garfieldfan925]

I didn’t know that scott

[@shadypixel4478]

This channel deserves more recognition :}

[@kay-collins]

It so does!! Like how tf it Aint blew up by now!?! I been following for a good lil minute!

[@cynthianwadukwe461]

Honestly it does.. This man is underrated

[@ChuckLeeMBM]

BIG facts!

[@radicalpaprika1720]

444K ain’t exactly underground lol

[@kay-collins]

@@radicalpaprika1720 dang I didn’t even realize there were that man subscribers bc it’s only got 1200 viewed & less than 500 like or whatever in 44 minutes & that seems low. ESP for that many subs.

[@bethrientoul2471]

Can’t believe how much control you have over oil pastels. Your pieces never look muddy, I learn a lot from watching your process

[@moniqueau27]

I really do too. I'm a 32 y.o self taught artist and although i do murals, oil pastels are my favorite

[@sp1deyluvr]

You deserve this! I feel the same way about your work. How Raven was like, "I AM HOLDING A BLACKBEAN!" YOU are that artist. YOU are fierce. YOU are hugely inspirational and make me want to art in ways I never wanted to art in before.

[@tamuk12able]

one day, when you see someone say "you'll never believe it, i got a hold of a Blackbean original" everyone will know what's up.

[@DI-QueenmoEMino]

I swear your artwork and videos on working with oil pastels are so freaking super inspiring and such an entertaining joy to watch. You're definitely one of my favorite artists online! 👏🏾🙌🏾

[@BlackBeanCMS]

This just made my night! Thank you so much! Oil pastels are so intriguing RIGHT!!??! Like we're literally just watching people slide around oily mud and creating works of art! I even shock myself sometimes! Like I really made that with THIS?!

[@DI-QueenmoEMino]

@BlackBeanCMS You're fantastic and your art is one of my favorites. Never stop please with your art videos. ✨️

[@nightmarefanatic1819]

He makes such fantastic art with what is honestly one of the hardest mediums to work with.

[@simonseanson255]

Oh Snap! 😍 that was such an amazing piece! I can't wait to see more of you during the spooky season! 🤩

[@BlackBeanCMS]

Thank you so much!!! AND SAME!! I am so excited to show the creations! It's gonna get spooky!!

[@THEinstapotth0t]

OMG, THEE RAVEN? This is so AMAZING. You are SO talented. 💙

[@nilawarriorprincess]

I'm so freaking proud of you!!!!! Every time I watch you, Im even more convinced that I have a front row seat to watch the evolution of a world-class artist. I know you will be remembered as one of the greatest contemporary artists. I'm so blessed to see you grow & I pray that you'll exceed all of your wildest dreams. Fantastic work!

[@gennosaur1]

I love the way you use colors in your work. Like, there's a whole rainbow in there and it looks amazing as shadows, highlights, and everything.

[@jardimdosdoze80]

You have introduce me to oil pastels and now it's my favorite material to do art. I have no words to express my gratitude, thanks for inspiring me and all of us, your videos are awesome and full of your grace and personality. A big hug from Brasil!

[@Hey_Jamie]

This is so exciting! You deserve the praise and so much more. You’re the only artist on KZbin who fits my sense of humor so well. Wait, no… you and Crafsman Steady Craftin. And Bobby Duke. But all for different areas of my humor lol.

[@sriracha_sauce]

I loveeee those two channels as well! ❤

[@JulietteWilliams]

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are getting some well deserved recognition!!! Love my BlackBean videos!!!!!

[@misticpiemaster]

I'm totally fan-girling!! I used to watch That's so Raven as a kid! The artwork of Raven and Miranda looks absolutely amazing!!! I hope you get more commissions from more celebrities and have fun with the art process!!

[@sundayinbloom]

I am cackling! I loved the intro! The piece is spectacular! Beautiful work as always 🌷

[@jas-r1u]

i just want to say, your art has inspired me to experiment with colors in art (i used to only work w charcoal) and i don't think i've ever been more happy making art. so tysm for that. you're definitely one of my favorite art youtubers, and i look forward to more content

[@EyESkeTch1]

🏆🏆His Energy Is Everything Along With The Talent... I hope For More Commissions Christian🥇

[@LPeralta01]

Don't ever stop being you Black Bean!! You are amongst one of my fav artists on KZbin, Super Happy I found you through 10-Hun's Channel. Your Personality is GOLD! Your skills PRICELESS!

[@sketchbookscheming]

[@stephaniegrehan9084]

hot DAMN that's a beautiful commission! I loved watching your creative sketching process, so informative lol

[@AnArtistJourney77]

Christian OMG, I am SCREAMING!!! I am so happy for you. You totally deserve this. First let me just say, I love me some Raven Symone’ too. I am a fan girl too. I watched her grow up, as a little Olivia on the Cosby show. I had her cassette tape of “That’s what little girls are made of” . Yes cassette, I’m older than old….lol. I love That’s So Raven, The Cheetah Girls, and now Raven’s home. And I what I love most is like us, she is also a Visual Artist. She went to Art School. How cool is that. Her and Miranda’s You Tube channel is so fun to watch. They are adorable. I Love me some them. You did a great job on the art, the video, shipping presentation, everything. I am so proud of you. ❤❤❤. More great things will be coming your way. PS. I’m so happy the sketch book is working out for you. I loved all the thumbnail sketches, and the extra drawings you gave them. I am smiling from ear to ear. I’m just so happy for you.

[@kyliemunroe6014]

I can’t wait to see who commissions you next!!!!

[@jamessorrel]

[@ferni24]

Oh my god YES! Leslie in his style would be amazing!

[@silentwarriorllc7385]

Blackbean is so underrated. All his personality and his amazing talent needs more support and recognition. I’m I huge Picasso fan and Bean brings him back to life with a modern, very juicy flare. I can never say enough good stuff about him.

[@klandgraf6956]

When you referenced feeling like that episode of that’s so raven when she meets boys in motion I swear I resisted the urge to do the song and dance she did in that episode. Absolutely amazing artwork. I found your channel through KZbin short and had to check out the rest of your videos. Love your use of color and your style is amazing. Keep up the amazing work

[@kaylabeals8597]
