about symetry, literally everyone is naturally asymetrical. this is why it can be quite uncanny to see perfectly symetrical faces.

[@birdeynamnam]

Yeah! This is why you should never draw faces using mirroring. Just learn to draw the second eye! it’s ok if it’s not perfect!

4:01 I agree in art class we did this where we flipped it vertically and the version that I looked at a picture normally looked SOOO MUCH BETTER than the one where I flipped it upside down, so it may work for some people but not all.

[@Naruneyl]

I think the best feeling as an artist is being so proud of how it turned out that you keep coming back to check it, taking in the serotonin of finally making something good, and being happy every time, like when you were in 3rd grade and kept coming back to check on your new school supplies like every hour lol

oil pastels is actually one of my favorite mediums! Im a traditional artist and I've never found myself to be good when working with colors but oil pastels just really clicked with me so if I'm not using typical pencils then I'm typically working with oil pastels. I love them so much

How we "flip" the picture depends on what medium you work with - a digital piece can be flipped *or* rotated while a traditional piece can only be rotated.

[@tarabooartarmy3654]

I used to hate oil pastels, but I bought some of the better ones and actually love them now. They are really fun for playing and experimenting without getting caught up in details. Great for learning, IMO.

[@benlin1526]

It's true what you said about the grid. Also I recommend using dry pastels.

[@EmicaDraws]

Make the lady that didn't give you the puppy a new skull of your enemies

[@zephari]

the flip upside down thing is something I did in school when we were learning how to draw well from observation/reference. We were practicing the skill of "draw what you see, not what you think you see". I think it was very helpful in that context, because turning an image into "nonsense" forced me to just look at the actual shapes. From that lesson on I had an easier time drawing from observation and reference. Flipping upside down to view original works from imagination and such isn't necessary though imo. Horizontal flips for such works are ideal, I've especially found them helpful with portraits. (for those wondering how to do that with physical art, I've used mirrors and also taken photos on my phone to flip digitally)

[@Bobasaurus_rex]

Sam, you really inspire me. I have been learning a ton from your videos. I've also been kind of struggling with drawing lately, but some of your videos made me realize that even artists make mistakes. Thank you for that.

[@Sanisgillon]

Yes! I have a friend who I send my finished artworks to, they aren't an artist they are a pure hypeman. But just the act of saving the piece and pinging it over Discord, means I get to see it in our chat history all small and regular, which helps me see my art in a sort of context. Also sometimes it makes me like the piece more because it looks finished, rather than just sitting on my tablet.

[@SmolAlmond]

These videos really help me to see that my old art teacher isn’t always right. He liked to flip things vertically and use grids

[@gallagherwitt]

The tip about taking a picture on your phone is great, and not just to spot mistakes. I use my phone A LOT while I'm painting (traditional painter), usually when I'm in "this is terrible and I've gone completely off the rails" mode. Looking at it on the phone gives me some distance, which usually makes me realize it's not as bad as I thought. And it also makes the mistakes jump out. So it almost always shifts my mind from "kill it with fire" to "Oh, I'm on the right track, I just need to fix X, Y, or Z."

[@akwrdalfredosauce2028]

Ik this doesn’t match the vibe or that no one even asked but, your videos seriously have helped me. Not even just artistically but in general. I’m going through really scary times rn yet you always find ways to make me laugh and smile when everything is at its worst. Thank you, Sam

[@yummyhat]

I used to draw grids when drawing traditionally, but only for scaling up my own detailed sketch on a bigger canvas/paper so I would get the general placement right

Sam, your the artist I look up to. Every time I see your work, I dream of becoming a successful art youtuber. Keep up with the GREAT work!

[@GraceLyonsArt]

I think the biggest problem when it comes to art tips is the fact that they will not always work for everyone. It is important to know that when you are trying out a tip an artist gave you online, it might not work well for you as it did for other artists. When I first started drawing and taking my art professionally, I was told to constantly study, practice, and copy other artists' work so that I can learn. But that didn't work for me at all. Those tips stunted my growth as an artist for a very long time. I hated studying other people's work and I wanted to focus on making my own. During this weird period of my art, I came to the conclusion that I learn best when I'm not studying at all. By that I mean: I learn as I go and learn by observing rather than creating separate studies. So, if a tip isn't working for you, it's okay, we all learn and create art differently. Edit: sorry my sentences sound like microwaved word salad

[@MaximusSilas04]

[@altair5072]

im one of those people who draws for excessive amounts of time all at once, and i find flipping vertically to be helpful when I just can't see anything when flipping horizontally. Flipping horizontally is best, but sometimes there's still something wrong with it and i can't quite tell what, and sometimes flipping my drawing upside down helps me realize what's wrong with it! also, it's easier to do traditionally. i don't always have access to a light box or mirror to flip my paper

[@Itsme-sv8ny]

[@gregorsamsat]

i usually tend o work on piece4s of work that go together. the best tip for me personally is when i finish one, i dont instantly jump into the next one unless i'm REALLY prepared for it. i find that sometimes giving yourself a brain break in between pieces helps you be happier with the final result then unhappy with all of it

[@alalessia]

Looking forward to the next storytime but also 7:08 the amount of time it took for a reaction to the joke was just xD

[@edayavuz1667]

One tip I learned in class that I found actually immediately works is that instead of drawing the thing u want to draw, draw what's around it. Or try to draw it upside down. This will help u to not focus on the thing u draw and therefore be more accurate cuz the tunnel vision u get when u focus on an object leads to inaccuracy

[@cosmicgoat2038]

Hi Sam! Your the best, keep up the phenomenal work 👏

[@ElegantHope]

[@Wordspicyduck]

Hi Sam! Love your videos, hope you get the puppy you want!

[@sablemoreno5095]

I'm late, so someone may have already said it, but a combo method with the grid is good for beginners. If you start with a sketch without the grid/not minding the grid then make adjustments based on how close or not the object is on the grid to the image you'll get a more natural flow as well as learn how to catch mistakes (such as lengthening or warping). Then you can add detail to the grid areas as needed for the focal point based on how busy that area or square is

Hey Sam! I'm a beginner and I'm planning on studying anatomy until school starts again. But every time I try people say a different thing. Some people say to study everything, like joints and muscles we can't even see, and others say to draw just the basics, but that's the problem, I don't know the basics. I was hoping if you could give me advice or make a video about it because I'm lost. I thought about buying books about anatomy but after seeing the prices I gave up and chose to keep my kidney :D

[@teddybryant1659]

I know your commet is old but if you do still need help, But I've been drawing for years so I'll tell you, I reccomed starting with Basic shapes you learn in gempratory, Squares, circles, rectangles, Slowly get thoose shapes to be more 3d and Less basic shapes, Spheres, rectangles, Slightly twisted rectangles, and Then if you want to get into like Muscle structures go ahead and study some of what's under but use the shapes, You don't need everything to draw something, Just something understandable Edit: Even trace things, Trace cartoons, Or stuff you like, it will help you're learning, Look at actual people for redwnce or refence other things, Look up art tutorials anything, Everyone learns differently
