Yea its so satisfying

I am 64 and trying to find passion...nothing is lost if you are young at heart

[@AP-bk8vq]

I'm 19 years old and I have started art as a hobby, being an engineering student. I sometimes feel lost or that I have started too late, but your videos really motivate me. Thanks man!

[@HeyEloranne]

Same here, I'm entering engineering in september and hope to be able to express my creativity because that's what I'm living for; drawing and acting mostly, but when I'll have the money I wanna go further and explore every branch of art

[@spinnerboyz]

Check out Stephane Richard Wootha story. He started around 30 and something years old.

Working towards a second bachelors in Engineering here! Started drawing again last year after not drawing for 6 years! I'm 23 now. Let's all enjoy this art and engineering life

[@tiffanyjiang8113]

It's never too late! My grandma started her art journey after when she retired at 30 yrs old! Her figure drawings and landscape painting is way better than mine even when I started at a young age. It's all about patient and practice and not just a number!

[@vincentmosher8026]

Learn And Create I just saw your channel and your art left me awestruck! You are an amazing artist and I send you my best wishes.

[@joraa]

1. You don’t have to have all of it figured out. - it’s okay to feel lost. just chill and relax. 2. Passion is overrated. - passion is something you develop, not find. instead of trying to find it, build it. 3. Keeping moving, when you feel lost. - just keep swimming. you got this. 4. Comparison is the enemy. - stop comparing yourself to instagram artists or to anyone. you’re you. you’re amazing as well. 5. Expectations kill creativity. - don’t pressure yourself on how things or how your art should be. just go with the flow and put your best effort.

[@Makoccino]

I LOVED this video! It's so nice to hear what you've learned throughout the years! Thank you for sharing! We all shouldn't forget that life is always in a constant movement, so we always evolve, learn, change and that's okay! As long as we accept that and embrace it, we take so much pressure off ourselves that we can just enjoy the ride with its ups and downs!

As a person who suffers with “PERFECTIONISM” these are some much needed reminders .... great job 🙌🏻 Love your art 🙂👍

[@KeshArt]

Thank you:))

[@barrington5438]

That last one, “Expectations Kill Creativity”, really resonated with me. I always have an image of how I want my work to be when I finish. But, when I am done, it doesn’t match the “perfect” image in my head sometimes. Having that happen, discourages me from making more art. That in mind, I create my best work when I just roll with whatever comes out and let go of that image in my head of the “perfect” result. This video was much needed for me. Thank you.👏

[@micah4615]

thank you for making this channel.. when i found it i was burned out and creating quality not quantity and art just wasnt fun anymore... so when i started drawing quantity my art has improved SO MUCH art is fun again and im starting to like my drawings, so thank you

[@KeshArt]

Thats great! and good that its working for!

[@pengweng6662]

Wait... when you started drawing in quantity? Do you understand the saying. (No offence)

[@pengweng6662]

@@micah4615 Oh lol. My experience was the opposite of yours, actually. Maybe that's why I got so confused. I rushed through drawing after drawing, but I was never really satisfied. but after I started putting more effort into my work, I've felt more... accomplished? idk

[@micah4615]

@@pengweng6662 well what i was doing was putting so much effort that i burnedd out and hated my drawings, so i drew less.. but then i started trying not to care as much if i made a bad piece of art.. thats when my art went from begginner to... much better idk and also i draw a lot more now and enjoy it again

[@grahamaltemare1376]

I feel like this is a tutorial not just for artists but for the people in general. For anyone, even if youre not an artist, this is a perfect video for someone stuck!

[@malakai_adam]

I expected art tips,but this was better

[@lydialoyd2079]

Before watching this i was feeling very down and beating myself up. Telling myself that my art is terrible and comparing myself to artists who I thought were better. Watching this made me feel so much better about myself and made me realize that I’m not perfect, no one is.

[@dedratcircus]

This dude is actually very useful! It sound like he actually knows what he's talking about. A lot of artist try to make videos like this but they didn't really know the right words or they didn't have experience or something but he sounds like he can relate to younger artist.

[@KeshArt]

😊😊😊🙏🙏

[@pawsomepedia]

kesh is really wise, i'm not a sub but this is a gift given by my youtube feed. probably the best thing that happened to my mediocre day

[@mariellax6799]

what sometimes helps me to get out of artblock is just to use a different pen or pencil then i was using before. like another colour

[@KeshArt]

That always works!

[@sunitasinha1110]

Yes kesh did you see the sketch i send on facebook

[@SleepinJimmy]

Damn your audio and presentation became much more aesthetic over the period of your channel. Keep up the good work!

[@lawrencewilliam07]

You should honestly have a million subs, even more. Keep going. Now I know at least, that it's okay to feel lost, and that I shouldn't have to beat myself up. Thank you for this, I will keep drawing. @Kesh

[@paulc9915]

I Don't really agree with someone saying "I wish I knew" or "I wish I could". I mean...Butterfly effect. It's really an important thing But ofc i get that the overall theme of the video is tips and tricks. And in this situation they really are impactful , Good video!!

Thanks kesh I honestly can’t stop coming back to this video

Expectations Kills Creativity, that's so true, i remember you saying that in the past and it stick to me.

[@loelparagele1301]

"Dont find your passion, make your passion."

[@2TwistedTanya]

That car analogy makes SO much sense. I'll remember that whenever I feel lost.

[@vovabelik0v]

Point of making maximal effort in every particular moment was very insightful. Thanks! It’s like the best you can is good enough. This approach beats expectations of “I could have done better” and sorrow.

[@victoriac4351]

You popped up in my recommendations and I’m so thankful. I really needed to hear this and I’m ugly crying lol. I’m taking all this advice to heart.

[@nikhatansari8495]

kesh 5 tips are : 1. you dont have to have it all figured out ,its ok to feel lost 2. passion is overrated ,stop trying to find your passion instead build your passion 3. just keep moving when lost 4. comparison is an enemy ,dont compare your work with other instead compare your work with your own previous work 5. expectation kills creativity .

[@sortal]

Alternate title: "5 THINGS I wish I knew as a BEGINNER PERSON" Honestly all of his tips apply to just about every interest one could have.

[@RondysArt]

“It’s okay to feel lost” that’s me right now 😌😅 Your videos are so helpful! 🙏🏼

[@onesyphorus]

Not an artist but clapped after a lot of points you said, and a lot of myth busting you did! This is life advice and you seem to have found it at 19, 👍

[@Murdoch01]

You explain things really well!

[@patrickribouet580]

Hey Kesh, I’m a fan and follower from the UK. Just wanted to let you know that you are one of several people who have inspired me to take up art as a hobby (in my mid 40s) this year. I have literally started with no skills in art, and it is a tough journey. Comparison is a confidence killer. But I am genuinely very grateful for your inspiring work and your honest down to earth advice. It helps and is greatly appreciated :)

[@KeshArt]

Hey Patrick, that's great! I'm so happy I could be of some use. The beginning process can indeed be a little hard but once you get the ball rolling, things are going to get much easier. Have fun and keep at it my friend!

[@BurstOfArt]

Those are some good pointers. Awsome vid.

[@KeshArt]

Thanks! :)

[@MsTropicandy]

The passion point really hits home with me. I just graduated with a bachelor's and a ton of debt and...well....I feel nothing. I don't want to do that anymore and I've found myself truly happy again working on my digital art. Life isn't meant to be planned.

[@olivia693]

This actually really spoke to me. As a 19 year old I constantly feel pressured to be passionate and have known exactly what career i wanted by the time I was in high school, but I didnt. I thought it meant I was failing but your words of encouragement mean a lot, thank you 💖

I feel like your last point especially got to me. You're so right, and I've always held myself back because of these expectations I held onto for myself. I will work hard on trying to let them go, because if I don't do what I wish to do today, when will I ever be happy enough to start?

Your videos are currently like some type of therapy for me now 😊😊 i like the encouragement given ❤❤thank you Kesh

[@maxis2k]

Good suggestions. But I would add one big one. The one I think is the most important and works with everything you said. "Expect failure, and use it to improve." Then apply every concept Kesh brought up to adapt and learn. The thing that crippled me for decades was I would try and draw something once. And it wouldn't turn out the way I wanted, so I got frustrated and gave up, only having tried to do it one time. But recently, I tried drawing the same thing multiple times. And every time I drew it, it improved a little bit. After 4-5 tries, I actually succeeded in drawing what I was attempting. It's so obvious that I feel kind of stupid now. But I wish someone had taught me this when I was younger. Don't just draw something once. Draw it multiple times. As many times as it takes to get right. Instead of getting discouraged by a picture not coming out right, just tell yourself "that one was just practice" and do another. Each time, trying to alter the parts that didn't look right in the last one. It sounds cheesy, but it works.

[@KeshArt]

Actually, that's a great advice and it's often overlooked. Saves up so much time in the process of one is just aware of this

[@arundhatibose8456]

Thank you so much. I often suffer from constant anxiety of wanting to work too much and having it all figured out which ends up lowering my productivity. I really needed this video and I hope I am able to change my constant over thinking about my work.

And just wanting to br good at and know everything right now. Listening to you made me realize I've been killing my creativity and hurting myself emotionally. That I need to keep moving and stop letting myself stay stuck because I am scared of what others will think..not any more..Thank you.
