Tip for background: STAY ZOOMED OUT. If you zoom into the drawing constantly you’ll get fixated on one or two things and never complete the piece as quickly as you wish.

[@mrpickles-hb6zx]

Bad habit

[@hirahiro2331]

I'll try that 👍

[@Tossler]

I love these videos where artists share their *studies*, not their *process* Such a huge difference when it comes to learning

[@rcdakara]

The lineart portion was really nice! I want to make a comic one day, and I can’t sketch background very well. Seeing someone place the larger shapes down and drawing the lines over makes me think I can do it with enough practice👍🏽

[@yuuuu6404]

the way that you talk about art makes me want to draw so much. usually I feel really insecure about my art when I watch speedpaints or studies like this but the way that you speak and draw is so comforting and beautiful and it makes me want to improve.

[@remedy2174]

Don’t worry with practice your art will definitely get better over time so don’t compare yourself to other artists. Go at your own pace and I can assure you that your art will be amazing! :D💖💖

[@caitlynkorstad4122]

You are so good at art! I love how you draw your little persona!

[@mauriyu]

Could we have an expression tutorial its something I struggle with I alot most of my characters have meh faces or emotionless faces because I don't know how to draw what expression I want it usually just ends up being a whole nother expression

[@mauriyu]

I know I've requested this b4 but I thought I would again XD

[@user-xn3rs7tu5w]

Something that might help is studying child’s faces, instead of adults since they don’t tend to hide or look appropriate for the photo And big eyes are great for expression

[@ethan2163]

Ethan Becker has a great video on expressions. If I'm not wrong it's his video about Ross Draw's dead face or something.

[@racheache]

i recommend watching some lavendertowne videos! she just made an expression one too :)

[@billythesillyy]

Yeah, smiling and angry are two expressions I CANNOT get

[@SquareMahogany]

Another important tip would be establishing the vanishing point/horizon line! Very very important step for creating backgrounds of any kind. It lays down the base which helps with perspective and depth

[@ramcario]

This video alone helped me a lot on slowly destroying my toxic trait in arts which is being a perfectionist. Your guide/tips/study showed me that everything doesn't need very intricate details but starting on large chunks so you could slowly break it down into little details (but not really super detailed and still visually pleasing). Thank you for all of your guides/tips/studies, it really helps a bunch of beginner artists on where to start learning. Much love from a viewer

[@ChokoCheri]

DUDE this is something I STILL need to work on, hopefully this video helps me as much as it helped you

[@ramcario]

@@ChokoCheri we will get there eventually, may your art journey be smooth. 😌

[@Arktober-Ghost]

I had never considered drawing backgrounds using photos to help me before now! I made a pinterest board immediately after watching for five minutes. Thank you, this is very helpful

[@yelisey5652]

I don't even know when was the last time I drew a proper background 😶

[@spideroblivion6572]

Ever since I found your channel I have actually started to do art again. Tysm I love your videos and you have the prettiest voice. I could listen to it all day. Your videos are also super helpful so srsly thank you!! 💖💖💖

[@lilysvalley04]

Bloo, you are seriously SO underrated!! Your tutorials help people so much (including me), and you honestly deserve more fame

[@leafumn]

This genuinely motivates me to actually start learning backgrounds

[@enhypenblahblaj]

I can figure out a lot of things by just watching the time-lapse thank you for this

[@chiupi9144]

This video is helpful! Not everyone shows how they draw interior of houses or buildings (mostly it would be like: how to draw a tree and end up leaving the bg blank when you can't find what you're looking for). The drawing study was great and now I understand how not to waste my time and worry how to draw every book on a shelf lol

[@gramcrackerfox8259]

Early squad? we're getting so much content >:)

[@sixtyboy9905]

Thanks for the videos! When I started with digital drawings, I didn't really know how to pick colors, but now with your videos I've started playing with colors, and painting is so much fun, I learn a lot from your videos, and I'm so happy that you're going to make a video about hands, I have no idea how to draw it.

[@GreyAreAnimating]

The thing i love in this future is people start helping everyone

[@cherrix9626]

Honestly, I'd love to see you do more of these kinds of videos Watching you practicing and studying anatomy and backgrounds really motivates me to do the same. It makes me feel like I'm not alone :D Since I've been struggling with art for a while now and can't seem to ever like the outcome of my drawings.

[@rosenstxr]

Thank you SO MUCH! You are literally my lifesaver and out of any tutorials that I’ve seen, yours probably helps me the most QwQ

[@Adam-oz4ml]

Ive been really burnt out lately, but watching your stuff makes me really want to draw. Thanks for sharing your process and learning, it’s really cool to see!!

[@Leo99677]

[@jeanbeany8462]

heyyyyy i love your work, your colors are so calming yet pop and the shading looks so soft, i aspire to have a coloring style like you, thanks for all your tutorials and speedpaints theyre soo cool :))

[@jeanbeany8462]

and your voice is really nice to listen to

[@mauriyu]

I have alot of trouble with backgrounds thank the heavens this is very helpful I've never thought of just blocking in the colors then lining over it it seems easier I always do lineart first I want to try this thanks for the help :D

[@soggysammy2765]

hey i know youre probably not gonna see this but your videos of you doing studies really help motivate and guide me through mine, I never really know where and how to start and seeing you go through the process really helps :)

[@NiqoKutosai]

Honestly your way of doing backgrounds with no lineart and stuff just looks so satisfying-

[@2triedforthis830]

i get excited when i "start" doing art Technics but when i get on the program. i just draw some squares and give up. your backgrounds here was super pretty

[@ViShBo]

when i was a kid, everynight when i sleep i used to lucid dream that i am on beautiful or enchanted places that was never existed. i practiced doing backgrounds using my wild imaginations! now, fellow artist, just because its just an imaginations or night dreams, that doesn't means it just stays that. YOU CAN do and copy it, you can memorise it, the right way of using your own creativity is to never give up on wonderful things from your wildest dreams and imaginations. you made those, and if you do, then it is POSSIBLE to do it.

[@xjoy1163]

Ok so. For me. The hard part is putting background and character together. How to make characters fit into their back ground because they look like separate drawings ive stacked on top of one anotherrrr

[@ruveyda8937]

[@BayaintheRez]

This is all wrong! Here’s how you actually get good at backgrounds ;D 1. Independently draw a background 2. Realize it sucks and get sad 3. Sell your soul to the devilishly handsome man around the corner. 4. Now you’re good! (I’m just kidding I’m listing hand and foot to this video.)
