ONE LINE CHALLENGE - Lift Your Pen & Die

[@KaseyTheGolden]

It has been brought to my attention that I lifted the pen. I am now dead and no more videos will be uploaded to my channel. RIP.

[@nyx1408]

noooooooooooooo RIP

[@korimela]

Kasey Golden kasey no

[@Aoeut]

That's life.

[@sotsu618]

Kasey Golden NOOOOO

[@alexisholley3499]

I was about to come comment that you lifted for pen 😂

[@CheesusBri]

I did this exercise in my first semester of college, i was told that you CAN lift your pen or pencil then continue where you left off. The only "rule" is that it has to be 1 line.

[@KP-ce6fx]

Ikr

[@crabgal]

Damn. I did this during my freshman year in high school and I couldn't lift my hand

[@kittenmimi5326]

Probably shouldn't have wrote "lift your pen and die" as the title then. Rip kasey

[@k0rviid]

cursive. but drawing.

[@rainyrayrae]

When you said your mind doesn't work abstractly I felt... oddly reassured?? I've had this problem for years and sometimes other artists (and art teachers ugh) would look at me oddly when I said I didn't "get" abstract art, like "you're not a real artist" kind of looks and I would feel so uncomfortable, like I'm supposed to understand all forms of art because I'm an artist, and that's just... not how people work. So it felt really nice to hear someone else put words to how I feel on such a visible platform to so many people. Like, I'm not the only one thank the goddess. Even though it wasn't an intentional reassurance, I thank you none the less!! I hope others who have faced this issue get the same feeling I did :)

[@KaseyTheGolden]

It's easy to get caught up in artists being a certain kind of person... but the reality is artists are all KINDS of people!

[@shmanana2638]

Yasss. Couldn't relate more to this

Hey everyone my friend Heather has done this challenge too! Hers is more abstract. Go check her out. Artzy Phartzy is the channel name!

[@thethree33aj17]

When she said grandma it made me faint. Kasey you look like a college student still

[@doicareno411]

Thethree33 AJ SHE ISNT????

[@bluedawns5671]

wait she isnt?

[@great3941]

Thethree33 AJ she has a whole husband 🤷‍♂️😂

[@bluedawns5671]

Alex :3 she can be in college with a husband 😂

[@miseryfell6417]

Alex :3 Lucky, I only have a quarter of a husband.

[@LilChuunosuke]

Honestly, right there with you with the "dont lift the pen ever" aspect. What's so horrible about lifting your hand and continuing in the exact same spot? It's still one line

[@phiakitti5885]

Total Trash Mammal, yea I think so

[@phiakitti5885]

At least It would look like one

[@kj6053]

Total Trash Mammal The challenge is to not lift your hand. That would ruin the whole challenge and make it like a regular drawing.

[@LilChuunosuke]

LeekFox /\_/\ no because regular drawings have lots of disconnected lines. It'd be very difficult to make it a "normal drawing" with one continuous line, regardless of whether or not you can lift your hand. Not to mention an art challenge should not require you to injure your hand to achieve, which is a serious risk with this "challenge"

[@LilChuunosuke]

Mia The Dork it's not the "don't lift your pen challenge", it's the "one line challenge". I'm saying that not only does your hand obstruct the drawing, but you also risk hand cramps and pain if you don't lift your pen from the page to stretch your hand. My main point here is risk of hand injury. Risking injury because "lifting your hand defeats the purpose of the challenge" (which it doesn't) is dumb

[@seretx3]

5:31 GOTCHA

[@lexisl3231]

Seretx3 But she continued on the same line. I’m so confused.

[@mathildebj4155]

She ded

[@sarahscribbles2160]

People say your not aloud to take your pen off the paper because if you just reconnect the line and keep going they say it’s not one line, it’s two lines connected, which is stupid and doesn’t make sense

[@waywardgirl34]

It's probably of the "lift your pen and die".

[@sarahscribbles2160]

Mia The Dork it’s not a shortcut if your continuing down the same trail you started from, but just took a quick break to catch your breath.

[@moss8115]

Right! Like. Two lines connected are (wait for it) One Line! Some people just like to be difficult and not have fun :/

[@christmas1634]

The_IntrovArt , it's because she said lift your pen and die

[@ello-olle]

‘The deadliest art challenge’

[@mother_at_law]

I love your creativity. You're just like, boop Boop BOOP! Presto! Awesome drawing! (Also, a wee bit jealous.) PS: Rose (my daughter) still squees when she hears my name at the end of your vids. :D

[@napstablook2234]

10:06 LOOK ABOVE THE ANTS

[@mother_at_law]

Yup. That’s my name! Rose thinks I’m famous. 🙃

[@wizardfurby]

Think of doing this digitally and pressing the "back" button and the whole thing getting erased I tried that challenge with my friends but I failed

[@lorib9745]

When i read that, I almost feel out my chair. I sketched something and that happened before.

[@wizardfurby]

Emerald - Kun aka Ek Yeah

[@madethisforrestrictedvideo9907]

That's what happened when jazza did it lol he accidentally deleted it as well because he tapped the screen afterwards

[@mikaeluhl]

10:10 It's sad how you dont say Maya's name

[@liliath2944]

Mikael Uhl LMAO

[@zoie8088]

Mikael Uhl poor Maya

[@janadumangcas4599]

Tru that

[@imnotsuspiciousshh]

2 facts about me. 1. I draw while listening to your video. I like to draw while listening to other people draw, I don't know. 2. My real name is Kaci. Whenever you talk to yourself like "come one, Kasey, get it together!" My mind always snaps to attention because that's my name, too.

[@MrBoko1234]

Idk why but watching you not lift the pen makes me sooo anxious. i wouldve lifted me hand in the first 5 minutes

[@davidly8059]

Vexx made a really good illustration aswell! Great job Kasey :)

[@spicymilk9072]

Hi kASey the kids wanted to meet you they missed their grandma let's have a picnic someday ? Love from aunt pAtRiciA ( idk anymore )

Man, that little house definitely surprised me! It's super adorable, and I love the little vine you added at the end. Also, the Kasey drawing is bangin'. Great job :)

[@zsuzsaw]

I blame etch a sketch for inspiring this idea and killing so much of our artist :^(

[@kt7087]

I lovw the style of how you film your videos, every this always feels specifically placed and i love it

[@sammie515]

I just bought some watercolors, and I think you’ll be pleased to hear that the colors include Sap Green and an earthy brown.

[@caesarzeppeli814]

Completely unrelated to your comment, your profile picture is pure beauty

[@sammie515]

Lyric Starr loves Gerard Way Thanks I like your picture too 👌

[@Soldmysoultorocknroll]

I looooooove your art! It's such a beautiful style, I really enjoy the geometry of your it. It's a style that really satisfies the eye without being busy.

[@babymins3283]

oh my god you're so good at this

[@8-ballfracture437]

I am actually in love with the style of the house drawing, it looks like it could be in a children's book! That drawing inspired me to go start drawing some backgrounds, thanks kasey!

[@jennyolivares_]

Kasey I love u soo much and hope one day to meet, u inspired me every day to keep following my dreams to become a artist 💕😭

[@starswithgabs]

I love how unique you are, like I don't even know how to explain properly, it's just, wow I love your videos so much 💜💜💜

[@shmffff]

Omg did anyone notice that she lifted the pen at 10:46

[@lesliemeyers4165]

Mood bro

[@cutemagicowl8447]

Got me. -claps-

[@jelenaradojevic4]

5:31

[@wuendi499]

I hadn't drawn anything in two years and this made me doodle on some blank printing paper just out of impulse because I thoroughly enjoyed watching you draw in this video...I'm crying right now because I thought I was going to never really draw again, so thank you for inspiring me even if I only merely did some doodles...it felt good.

[@PineapplePanda]

The drawing of the person from the side was really nice.

[@katherynwiganckow8191]

I’m glad you are ok and safe xD I simply love your approach to the challenges

[@emmapham2902]

*drops everything* Kasey videos come first

[@KatieReadsKoziesAndMore]

This was fun! I loved them all. Watching you do this just enforced the fact that we need to develop “muscle memory” in our drawing skills. Thank you.

[@laur8774]

@ 5:31 she lifts her hand up

[@burneyarts]

Scandalous

[@lexisl3231]

But she continued on the same line. I’m confused.

[@laur8774]

Stabbed Can ok but like i’m just stating factssass i don’t dislike her

[@adellel.3827]

yay I love you!!! I love that house drawing so much the way you did the bricks was so satisfying!

[@n0vaart687]

So cool ! Seriously you draw so well thanks you to make a youtube channel ! (sorry for my english i am 13 and i am french )

[@Amelysian7]

Fun fun fun! I love all your videos 💋 my favorites are the mini house layouts and entire-world creatures

[@lincolnmaahs18]

Take a shot every time she says “one line” or “challenge” now THAT’S a challenge. Btw “one line challenge” is two shots.

[@bkdgbasura]

MAN I LOVED THESE!!! The illustration were so interesting and beautiful!! Keep up the awesome work and stay golden Kasey! ;)

[@sanyatyagi645]

Hey, at least you can go over the lines you've already made instead of the whole 'Draw without lifting your pen/pencil. Oh, and you can't overlap your lines.' things, right kasey?

[@desiglowguide]

I just wanna say that you really inspire me...You are my biggest inspiration.💗💗💗Thank you

[@mikolaidestroyerofworlds7904]

I havent watched the video through already, so spoiler me; did kasey die in this video?

Hi kasey can I draw your style because I can’t find my style and in your style I draw the best 💕❤️ I love you ❤️❤️ can I have heart? ❤️❤️❤️

[@Felahliir]

_Watercolor _ It’s ok, in time, you’ll get your own.

[@lemonfairyd70]

I don't think there is anything stopping you from having heart buddy!

[@_watercolor_5913]

yeet yeet yeah byt when I want to post my art or produkts I can’t :(((

[@cathypappa696]

I don’t think taking her art style is right, but you can take a few aspects from it to help you progressively get better at drawing! Then you’ll find ur own style!❤️✏️

[@mjpete27]

Weird challenges seem to be a staple of youtube videos, I believe you did just fine and why is this scary? I guess I do not understand the pressure of keeping a channel productive and popular! I Guess you do I know, that is why your channel is so popular and I am so very happy for you! Keep up the good work and I am happy to keep watching too!

Socially Awkward Read most of the comments. A lot of people say that.

[@badapple1222]

Crazyanimalsrule Games yeah but this is the only one I saw so far :)

[@katherinejoy527]

we did this in drawing. (i'm in advanced studio now) it's really fun. there are actually artists who do contour line drawings. you actually are allowed to pick up your pen. you just have to make it look like it is one continuous line. my amazing art teacher showed us some artists' work and they are very interesting. another fun way to do this is to do a blind contour line drawing. basically, you just look away and draw using one line. it is really cool to see how you do. also, I love your videos and you are my favorite art youtuber. you always make me smile and brighten my day. i know this is like 6 months after this video was posted but...

[@andreidanescu333]

I Love you Kasey so much! Your videos are The Beeest😝🔥

[@bellb.5837]

Kasey you're the best! Thank you for posting!

[@Bepis432]

Oooooh we do this in my graphic design classes every year! I love this challenge

[@kathleenwah8332]

I love the (tiny) house and your ghosts. I wonder about an illustration that includes both?

[@kaibaman3353]

You inspire me to draw and I always love everything you do!

[@joanna5531]

This looks awesome, Kasey!!

[@blanketshart]

You should be proud! I can't even do shadows and your over here drawing amazing artwork in only one line! 😵

[@fen4ri]

i love the ghost drawing! looks like it would make a cool repeating pattern kind of thing. and it's cool that they all have mouths

[@LaKaY1233]

Kasey you are the cutest person ever. Thank you for always knowing how to make me smile.

[@nariahlisboa4807]

I really loved the ilustrations, it'd be a hard chalenge for me, as you said, its hard to keep the anatomy right when you cant quite look at the whole drawing! You could modify this chalenge a bit to have some fun with it, like, 3 lines, each of a different color, stuff like that! I'd love to see move videos about it xD

[@MsNefertriri]

This was one of my professors go to warm up exercises in art school. Tho to make it even more of a challange we also weren't allowed to LOOK at our hands while drawing. Only the model. Great drawings though kasey! Glad you didn't die 😆

[@BelindaShort]

Continuous line is really good for freeing yourself. If you can't work abstractly, I suggest a blind contour with continuous line, it makes it more fun

[@unicornglitzer]

The one with the scribbly creature was my favourite😍😅

[@pond_weedx4185]

I love doing these! I am currently doing this type of art for my GCSE’s (British school course)

[@mirjanbouma]

Early! Yay! I love your style and sense of humour, Kasey!

[@noodlemint-art]

i find the single contour drawings more fun when its a blind single contour. It's also fun to do with friends, whether they are artistically inclined or not, because its the gesture and implications for the viewer that make them unique

[@ranibowunicorn]

Watching the house drawing being completed was like watching a 3D printer speed printing something awesome😂👍🏻

[@gloam8724]

I actually do this a lot and i find it working verry well on very gestural(?) drawings. I like it!

[@FarlyCreates]

I did a one line drawing (without realizing it was trending) because I wanted to try the exercise again like when we had to in high school, so that made me chuckle when you said that the last time you did so was in high school! I ended up having to do two lines because the I forgot to do the bottom row of teeth in the skull. It ended up okay but it was a little easier for me because I laid down watercolor shading first. Great job for not having done it in awhile!

[@radio_nuke]

Honestly i'm waiting for those comments that say "Lift Your Pen And Die" *-lifts pen immediately-* but i guess i'll keep waiting

[@HoshiBerry]

I really like how the ghosts turned out. The line across their face give them a very interesting look !

[@potato_pasta9753]

My hand started hurting just watching you draw... but seriously how do you draw soooo good?!

[@fancyfoxpawz0497]

7:55 very true Kasey “I don’t see why you can’t lift up your pen if you can still continue the line…” Wise words of wisdom from our good ol’ granny Kasey Golden

You are way better than me in art with one line and me with all the lines I could ever ask for!!!

[@thelazyomegawolf939]

Petition to make that cute house she drew a coloring page. Please Kasey, I need this, we need this. That house is too dang cute

[@yagurl4863]

We do this as a warm up in my creative arts class but the catch is, that while we're doing it we can't look at the paper while also not taking our pen/pencil off the paper. Its challenging but the outcomes are always super unique! Drawing people is especially funny.

[@abigail9067]

I did this in art class as a group, and it was so fun drawing each other’s portraits!

[@clary_smiley]

I love ur art style💖

Take a shot every time she says “just”, “challenge” or “exercise”. I’m kidding, I love you, your voiceover and all of the drawings, especially the one of you.

[@jillselby663]

I love this challenge! Another great one would be a sketch where you take each letter of the alphabet and make a picture with it. Like, take a "K" and sketch something incorporating it.

So, Kasey, you've mentioned that you use micron PNs for you lining, so I went out and bought one. I have to say.... They're really great for water color lining!!! Thank you Kasey!!!

I remember doing this back in middle shool art class but the teacher had us do it with the sketchbook on our heads
