I love this kind of perspective work... always impresses the hell out of me.

[@AmyLGrainger]

How we suggest a sponsor to you?

[@Chaos_Senpai]

Blizzard is hell itself

[@brainddeadd]

Pro tip from a former manual laborer: When you're down on your knees like that, dont put your hand flat to brace yourself especially when you're leaning on it, that posture puts all of the pressure and weight on your wrist itself, INSTEAD make a fist and brace yourself with the top of your knuckles like youve punched the ground and are trying to push it away, this pose will use your forearm or entire arm as the brace where that kind of support isnt going to do nearly the same damage over time! I hope this saves someone's wrists!

[@katelyng266]

Or you can prop the heel of your palm up with a towel under it so that it’s elevated and less press to the join

[@tefroqr3994]

Awesome tip! I'll be using it when I'm gardening 😅

[@sventer198]

Thanks

[@Talavania]

This is almost, but not quite, knuckle walking, like chimps and gorillas do! Makes sense that it'd be easier on our joints

[@WinstonSmithGPT]

Push up bars also help.

[@zararobnett8284]

I didn’t mind Jazza explaining how much pain he went through doing this because it shows how hard work this is. Makes you appreciate not only the incredible talent of the artists who create these paintings but also the incredibley hard work that goes into it

[@emilyolsen3916]

And I appreciate the street artists that do this! So awesome!

[@celestialgems8762]

I love how everyone walked onto the steps but the moment they saw the framing they started losing balance. It just goes to show how cool optical illussions are in that they can literally effect your balance when standing flat on the ground. Your artistic skill is amazing and it's really inspiring that you're willing to just try new mediums

[@pacmonster066]

Your brain uses shading and perspective queues to understand depth. That's why it's very easy to fool the brain with these kind of illusions. Where the dizziness comes from is your inner ear canals do not tilt the fluid in them like your brain would expect from angling downward going down a staircase. So your eyes are telling your brain there's a descent in front of you but the fluid in your ear canals is saying it's flat level ground, leading to the disorientation.

[@gavindinsmoor8196]

@@pacmonster066 Cool! Thanks for sharing that!

[@wingsinthewood]

I think it's really valuable that you talked about the pain from the process. So many hand crafts and arts do have a physical impact on the body, and it's important to learn how to work in smart ways so we can keep making the things we love!

[@ashleypearce11]

I really hope this isn't the video you mentioned on your last video that the sponsor didn't like, because this is absolutely mind blowing

[@reesespp3965]

i hope not! i cant even imagine them not liking it, this is incredible edit: i checked that video and he mentioned this as a separate piece from the dropped sponsorship. i may not love blizzard for every decision they make but at least they know good art when they see it

[@SlushyMcGee]

Same thing I thought, came to the comments to ask about it LOL

[@paullmight42]

it's not, that video will never see the light of day unfortunately. this one also did not cost what he said the other one cost to make... we all know it was amazing tho

[@avatarofdeath]

nah, he said he spent 5 figures on that sponsored video. This video probably cost at most a few hundred for the boards and chalk. Maybe a couple thousand if you include time.

[@suryaprasad3314]

[@Laura76393]

I love this channel. It’s really just the “let’s try every art form that exists” channel and you get stuff like THIS! Wow

[@Gantorin]

I think metuoning the pain throughout working on the project really conveys how difficult pieces like this really are. So I don't mind it. Great job!

[@szabib8048]

Now that I think about it, 3D pavement illusions are another great artistic thing I have not seen Jazza try before. What a perfect opportunity! And the result is fantastic!

[@chuck89l]

My mind is absolutely blown. You are a true artist of so many mediums and I love seeing the joy and happiness even though you may be in pain that you have when you're doing art. You are a true inspiration. I love watching your videos. Never change jazza

[@ChickItsAwesome]

I like to refer to the term as "the Ultimate Artist".

[@IrinaGreenman]

First, as someone with chronic pain, it matters to talk about the pain. Labor, even labor we love, isn't all sweetness and light, and it's toxic to pretend otherwise. Second, I'm shocked that people aren't commenting more about the amazing reflections on the prop sword in the final shots. The reflections of the lighting and also of the colors below, just add an extra unique touch of awesome to all the photos of people immersing themselves in this world you've created.

[@leah279]

I appreciate that you talk about the pain. Its real. There are a lot of people, artists and not, that struggle through pain for their passion. Its not always easy.

[@yvettesalinas3588]

As someone who lives with chronic pain but still lives my life with a full time job, kids, husband, and all; it was refreshing seeing you talk about the pain you were in and pushing through. It was real. It was life. I get it! (Hope that doesn't sound weird) it was amazing and my son absolutely loved it. It was so good!

[@lofiworkshop]

Everyone's reactions were so much fun. It's a mind-bending marvel. When you're ready to handle the pain again, please do another!

[@enderwiggin1510]

Don’t apologise for talking about the pain, one of the reasons we’ve been following you for years and for which we keep checking in is how genuine you are, à can’t draw for **** (I wrote a bit but this really isn’t the point of this comment) but one of the things I love about your content is the fact that you actually talk about what it feels like when you make art, no matter the medium. I hope you’re doing okay, I don’t know about the rest (though I think most will agree » bur know that if you ever need to take a break (even a long one) I’ll be there when you want to come back. Lots of love, take care ♥️

[@SomniiLinn]

Love that you talked about the pain, because it’s the reality of doing work like this, and it shouldn’t be silenced. Amazing result (it even looked slanted when viewing it from a different perspective than the intended one, so you’ve done a great job!), and it was really cool to watch everyone’s reactions! 🙌

[@sunshinecodex4426]

It's absolutely mind blowing how good he is, he's never done this kind of thing before and he knocks it out of the park!! Also, major props to the whole team, especially the camera men and the editors, I know how hard it is to do that stuff, so well done!!

[@FreedArt]

You never fail to come out with new and even crazier ideas each time lol

[@lucyssilverlining5396]

No pain, no gain. This is incredible!! I'm constantly amazed that you can master new art challenges so quickly!!!

[@thecreator9256]

This is one of my favorite artworks from Jazza. The interactivity of the 3D effect, which is the closest way of bringing everything from mere imagination to reality is sooo coool!

[@guilhermetomasferreira]

Mate, the creativity and the looks just flow off your hands, I love it and would love to see an acrylic “permanent” painting in this style. You rock and this was to me, your best implementation of the different applications in the last couple of years. Hard to top this but I’m excited to what comes next!

[@melveille496]

Wow! What an amazing piece! I loved seeing the team's reaction at the end! And take the time to heal, you don't want the pain to get worse and not go away... Amazing result!

[@chickenofthelord4052]

It took me back to one of those paintings that'd we'd see on children's old story books which would absolutely suck your brain into it and make interact by imaginations. Love the details and highlights. And love how it took me back in time.

[@HeisenbergFam]

Never thought I would see Jazza being sponsored by Blizzard to promote Diablo 4

[@Tyuf_]

oh thank god, finally a top comment from someone who isn't a comment-ripping bot

[@TRPLD]

Yeah, atm everyone and their dog is getting sponsored by Diablo IV/Blizzard. Quite genius actually to pay big and medium creators on KZbin to promote your game. It's way cheaper and way more effective than traditional media campaigns.

[@RM_3D]

With all of the promotions going on of this game. What if it sucked? Really, what if the game is really bad? Some, if not all, of the sponsored creators have put their reputations on the line for a few bucks.

Us: uses chalk to draw our initials and rainbows on the drive in summer with friends Jazza: uses chalk to make an epic descent into hell piece in his backroom

[@nicolebrown2372]

Amazing Jazza! You never fail to impress, I’m always in awe of your talent! Your back-breaking work has really paid off, you should be immensely proud of everything you and the team are achieving.

[@cherylrosbak4092]

This is fantastic. Thanks for letting us see how you worked out the perspective and everything -- it was really helpful. And also, thank you for talking about your pain -- art of all kinds is real work and we shouldn't be afraid of letting people know that. Too many people think it's easy to be an artist when it never is, even if it's worth the pain in the end.

[@roswithaprochazka912]

This is so incredibly cool. I especially love that fiery glow coming from the "depth".

[@dogbark]

I love how you can always count on Blizzard to sponsor Jazza! Their creations are fantastic and Jazza always does such a great job making art inspired by their games.

[@cindyespindola4946]

Amazing artwork!! It looks so cool and it was also great to see everyone's poses and reactions 😁

[@erinh5757]

This is just incredible! I am always so impressed by those who can do the 3D chalk art. Tip: If you have already completed a good portion of your drawing, but then need to go back and work on something towards the top again, try using a large piece of cardboard. Gently lay it down over a section of your piece, and you can then walk on it without causing footprints, or knee prints. Just be careful when lifting the cardboard back up. Been using this trick for about 18 years now.

[@alin-mihai]

Genuinely loved the result in this one. Hope it wasn't blizzard that pulled out of the other project you mentioned in the previous video

[@TheThewhatnow]

Pretty sure it was, I believe he mentioned it being a large chalk painting project. You don’t find 5 figure sponsers often, Blizzard would certainly be one of them.

[@alin-mihai]

@@TheThewhatnow went back to that video, and he mentions the chalk art as a separate project he was working on and being excited to publish it, so it's more likely that it was a different sponsor, and not blizzard

I do believe the pain and you are right in mentioning it, more than a few times, as a precaution should anyone else attempt something similar. Fantastic results!

[@lexidexi3151]

Fun tips! As chalk artists, we use tempura paint/chalk paint (available at hobby lobby, or michaels) to hitch doesn’t smudge or smear like chalk does, so that the public can pose on our 3-D pieces without worry. Plus you can add normal chalk on top for extra fine details if you’d like. It still washes out after rain, but lasts longer and won’t smudge

[@anastasiaburns3882]

I’ve always loved watching both chalk illusion art as well as Jazza videos so I’m happy the two worlds could come together in none other than the underworld itself!

[@canniblanch]

I actually really like when artist talk about how physically taxing art can be. I know it’s obvious art takes effort but you’d be surprised how we take it for granted. Back when I drew as a hobby I never really felt wrist pain but when I started taking commissions and drawing for my degree carpal tunnel reared its head. I didn’t know I had a bad grip until it was too late. Drawing for hours for someone other than yourself really makes you alienated from your art and suddenly feel all the pain that comes with it. Thankful artists are now talking about it more online so younger artist know how to prevent it. So many helpful tips, exercises, and even break reminders on twitter etc!

[@maitepelaez3625]

I absolutely love how you don't just stick too one genre that you are good at... but that you take on projects well outside your comfort zone... and than freaking nail them. It's a great example for my kids as i try to teach them it's great to be good at and even master something for sure but constantly challenging yourself with stuff outside your comfort zone is how you really grow!!! Out of eveything ive seen you do so far... this was definitely epic ...and worth the pain and effort. As a landscape contractor that specializes in interlock brick patios, I can definitely sympathize with the pain you were feeling in your knees, back and wrists. Thankfully I now pay people to do all that whilst i sit there and bark instructions at them...lol Way to work through all of that to achieve success!!!! 😉👍
