im in ap art as well and im not doing as well as id like. i have about 3 pieces for my portfolio with about a month left..my theme is centered around fascination with the horror genre. i thought itd be easy cause i like horror themes but actually doing the drawings has proven really difficult for me lol...best of luck to you and your works though!! this one came out great!! :D

[@jouusta]

tysm!! good luck w your portfolio as well!

[@birbl8156]

That sounds really cool! Is there any place where I can see the art you made for that?

[@uglyyears]

I know you left this comment a year ago but I really hope you got there in the end

“a sustained investigation” *sign* “-its stupid.” so real 😭😭

You know It feels good to have a comfy video every once in awhile.

This is very much giving studio Ghibli vibes, finding joy in the little things

[@NikoGandNicNac]

This is adorable and I love how precisely you can mimic other's art styles and still have your own. I haven't seen alot of people do Draw With Me's for an art portfolio. You have a great personality and beautiful art!

You’ve got such a unique art style, I love your work 🥰

[@Existing063]

I'm currently taking ap Art right now! From what I know, for the section for 10 artworks, you can add any progress photos that you believe shows experimenting/your thinking process for your artwork. Be loose with your sketches and honestly try to enjoy what you create! Hopefully this helps a little ^^

[@jouusta]

it does help tysm 😭

[@Existing063]

@@jouusta No problem

[@ikiio7361]

Oh my god this reminds me of my a level art external examinations 😭 it’s like a three month project (there’s also a longer personal investigation but that’s like a year long) it’s just three months of just churning out as much polished art, experimentations and testers as you can. We have a final external exam which is 15 hours long and I managed to do 5 A3 paintings in that time it was crazy 😭😭

[@lini6422]

this theme is so amazing literally made me tear up a bit bc i love finding comfort in everything sm the colors u use are sooo cute and ur art style compliments this theme sooo nicely🤍🤍

[@katfishglimmer]

jouusta posting a new art video always makes my day

[@kyleemott18]

Literally stunned by the piece

[@55178.]

so excited to see this one!!! i love the colours so much

[@ZenButTheyCallMeZEE]

who else thinks this is one of the kost underrated artist?

[@tableofteaspoons]

i regret not taking art this year, it's one of my old hobbies that i want to respark my interest in because as soon as i realized i cant draw anatomy quite good, or color, and the moment i had to do WORK with my art, i burned out really fast. i cant switch but im hoping to take art next year and hopefully i can get int advanced/ap with some time. your theme is so simple yet it feels like it has so much thought. this definitely inspires me to make my own portfolio, for fun, outside of doing art to work. thanks jo :)

[@hollowcelebration]

AUUUAAHAHA PRETTY COLORS ALSO OFF TOPIC BUT THE WAY YOU TALK AND FORM SENTENCES IS JUST 🤩🤩🤩

[@jouusta]

that means a lot bc i have so much trouble speaking for these videos 😭😭

[@mysticbearrart6521]

I actually love the theme you chose, its like romanticising your life in a way 😚

[@parker4591]

girllll I’ve taken AP Art for 3 years of high school, I’m in AP 3D right now and let me tell you this is NOT easy! Props to you for getting this stuff done. I’m struggling coming up with ideas for art (my SI is about how jellyfish can represent negative emotions) and I’m admiring how good your process is. Slay the day away girlie.

[@soggy_emoboy]

I saw your stickers on the front and now I'm drawing space clowns. thanks for the inspiration 😻 You videos are just something chill I can always have in the background when drawing:)

[@xeniahaberditz5472]

Was posted long time ago I know, but I love to watch people with great art style create something from a blank page. Learning a lot looking just at your process. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@KD_daydreams]

i loved this vid so much!! your voice is lovely and your art is beautiful. i loved listening/half watching this while i worked on my own drawings. keep up the amazing work!!

Hey hey! I adore ur art and I just wanted to also say: IM IN AP TOO!! It made me happy to see someone else in ap art and posts on KZbin, I feel very seen rn! I am as stressing abt the deadline but hopefully we both can submit in time with peace 😭🫶

[@nava1436]

first of all OMG YOUR DRAWINGS ARE SUCH A VIBE THEIR SO CUTE OMGGG. second of all r u using nintendo/mario music in the bg or am i trippin🤔anyway love ur art

[@gato-ol5pw]

honestly i LOVEE the mismatched tile, definitely my favorite part of the drawing :D it reminds me of magazine cutouts, it makes the drawing look more playful (imo) ^__^

[@jacetheloser]

Go ham with the progress photos! Although I'd recommend making them look semi aesthetic and give it like a color theme !! When I usually brainstorm my pieces I use it as an opportunity to decide on a color palette and doodle with them! The colors usually give me an emotion to put into the piece like red being passion or anger .. and stick stuff in the spread such as tags or paper :3 to add to the theme.. I'd recommend making your 15 pieces half progress pics and half finished pieces !! :oo

[@p3nc1l_l3ad]

aaa i love your art smm! your videos give me inspiration to draw ^^

[@leafy4838]

ur art is so pretty ^_^

[@pumkitdrawz]

i love your art smm

[@emistarxx]

just found u, watching u draw is SO COMFORTING i love it

[@localgiraffe574]

Idk what to comment but this video made me very happy and i watched the full thing 😭🙏

[@jacetheloser]

To motivate me to work on my pieces consecutively i often depended on my other AP classes to push the ap art as well!! Like if i know something in AP Bio is really gonna crunch my time for art i try to start way before it or spend as mucn time for art like during lunch or wherever i have nothing to do ...during thr period i actually have ap art i really submerge myself into my work usually lsitening to music to drive me to work on pieces ! If i dont feel like starting or work on a acrual piece i just doodle in my sketchbook for more piece ideas or just to warm up the drawing skills !! Dont stress yourself dear , as a person who took more than one ap class including ap art it is hard work but push through and put your best efforts !!! (I know the portfolio have been submitted but if you do ap art again you can use these ideas!!) I aim to take ap 2d art again!!

[@Thundyy21]

when I took AP art we had to do 24 fully finished substantially sized pieces 😭😭 idk how I lived through that tbh also I didn't have a theme and just came up with something random at the end and got a 5 so who knows

One idea for your theme is holidays like Christmas or whatever you celebrate

[@maddie_cupcakes]

photo subbimssiona can make it a lot less stressful if you like to save your details for the final piece! try to get pics of the sketch the line work and the pictures you used as references all on the same pdf and upload that

As someone in AP ART god i feel you.

[@wisteria_asmr_]

I’m also in ap art and I focused a lot on nature and I feel like I won’t do as well because it seems like college board likes perspectives and people and faces and emotions and now I’m scared

Is ap art a college thing?

[@jouusta]

kind of? its a high school class, but if you pass the end of the year test it can give you college credit hours

[@IsaSleepy]

:00000 it looks so good! were did you find the masking tape tho?

[@oldacc1890]

Hi there...great video! I wanted to create an art portfolio from scratch and I have no idea where to start...do you have any tips? (I'm looking to do a much easier course than what you are doing)

[@Jo_out_of_water]

WTH I'M JO???? OMG HI SAME NAME???

[@jouusta]

HEY FELLOW JO!!

[@calmChair]

which pencils do you use??

[@Azucenary]

How did AP art go? What score did you get if you don’t mind me asking? I’m looking to take the same course in the future.

[@jouusta]

i ended up making a 4 on my portfolio! i was expecting a 3 so i was p happy about it 😭😭 the class overall was easy, but my teacher didn’t make us start working on our portfolios until around march, so i had to rush it lol. tbh i think the whole “creating art with a consistent theme” thing really wasn’t for me, but i’ve also seen a lotttt of artists thrive under that expectation. i hope the class goes well for you when you take it, good luck!

[@Azucenary]

Hi again! Could I ask what type of AP art you did? I’m not sure if I should take AP drawing or AP art and design. I plan on taking it the following school year, thank you so much!

[@muahhhhhehe]

[@saltydinonuggies1841]

I dont think your voiceovers sound that bad but you coukd always look into get a microphone that plugs into your phone to help some!

[@BECAUSE_IM_BATMAN]

i wanna take ap studio art for senior year but question do you need to know realism for it??

[@jouusta]

not necessarily, but the art judges at AP definitely prefer it! if you’re taking the class to get a good score, it wouldn’t hurt to try and learn it, but if not then it doesn’t really matter. The main thing I would focus on is trying all sorts of art mediums for your pieces, AP people like seeing that you can adapt! I ended up with a 4 using mainly a cartoony style and using different mediums. its not a 5, but i was happy!

[@BECAUSE_IM_BATMAN]

@@jouusta ok thank you, I'm really scared to take it, I have a more cartoony style like you but I thought they wouldn't really accept it unless I did realistic art pieces. I'm actually picking my classes today so I need to figure out if I'm gonna take it or not. I definitely aiming for a 4 but a 5 would be nice lol.

[@wisteria_asmr_]

@@BECAUSE_IM_BATMANI think if you’re have very good perspective that is strong and amazing light/ shadows etc you might be good. Ap is just ugh

[@moobiles]

The colors u picked are so stunning omg I love it

[@jexui]

Omg I just realized u asked for tips, and I’m not pro BUT I HAVE SOME: Tip 1: u can also submit closeups of pieces ur rlly proud of for the 15 submissions Tip 2: try working with different mediums becuz they like that Tip 3: try to go out of ur comfort zone but still don’t go too far out and be over ambitious cuz it’ll burn u out For the most part just pace urself (I’m not one to talk tho) and u will eventually be done in no time :)

[@jouusta]

that first tip is actually really smart i like that and im gonna ignore the burnout warning from tip 3 and go all out thank you for the tips tho they all helped!! ::,,DD
