OMG JOUUSTAAAAA well done for finishing high school !!!!

[@hanselmartinez762]

This channel is so underated, also i feel like no one can top your comfy homey vibe in your videos

[@jouusta]

literally tysm i try my best to make them comfy 😭😭

[@ariellenahh]

i found your channel yesterday. there are three outcomes for when i see art videos 1) save it to "watch later" and never ending up watching it 2) watch it for a few minutes and click off 3) get drawn immediately and even subscribe you're in the #3 category. congrats!!!

[@BananaParrot]

your videos are my go-to if I ever want something playing in the background while I draw; they just have a great vibe to them! I’m pretty sure I replayed each video on this channel 2 times already while drawing traditionally/in my sketchbook

[@jouusta]

i am so honored tysm 😭😭

SCREW EXAMS JOUUSTA UPLOADED

[@absenti3605]

everything you said was way too relatable 😭congratulations on finishing high school!!

[@shrekswaifu4601]

I must say, this is one of my favorite art commentaries of all time. It was really refreshing to hear your thoughts and perspectives on various topics and relate to them in some way. Usually, people don't express their negative feelings about art commentaries and such, so it was really cool to hear about your struggles, opinions, and honest feelings about your art while understanding how you feel. I enjoy listening to videos like these as I'm usually the one talking, so it was nice to just unwind and listen for once. Your words not only helped me relax, but also helped me clarify my thoughts. So honestly, thank you.

[@jouusta]

aaa this comment means so much to me thank you!!!

[@akumarou]

I recently found your channel while I was doodling on my sketchbook and I LOVE how relaxing your videos are!! They are so entertaining to watch!! 😭I love your art as well aaaa

[@Lenkt403]

Damn I hope people feel the same way when I post my first vid soon amma post draw with me’s tutorials just Aton of art and am so excited so I hope people feel the same way about my videos once I post one 🙂

[@spoogledooble]

the way you draw pokemon scratches my brain so much oh my god /pos i love your artstyle

"Tiktok sucks, i hate that app." YESSSSSS GURL PREACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@unknown6476]

I like this video so much! Rewatched it like 20 times while drawing

[@wisso0]

your channel is such a vibe, it's perfect to watch while drawing or sketching

[@CallMeEz]

It’s so refreshing to see someone with similar interests as you (ie art and sketchbooks and writing and storytelling and stuff), who has very similar thought processes. It’s so entertaining to watch Edit: NO WAY Arcane is literally the best animated show probably ever

[@um_whoishannah]

i have been struggling with not having a fandom rn, im clinging onto to my last one for dear life

[@toriw-vw3qh]

watching this sketchbook session possessed me to make the best art i have ever made in sooooooo long ily

[@casperopossum5479]

i didn’t have a hyperfixation of my own for a bit, but i saw the new spider verse movie and DUDE IM OBSESSEDDD- you should see it! especially if you end up being in art block, it’s such an inspiration! i could talk about spider verse for hours im so happy about it existing. i have an art tiktok, but i’m hoping to get an art youtube soon!

[@jouusta]

DUDE i have seen atsv twice in theatres so far and i have plans to see it 3 more times 😭😭😭 it is so good!!! im also making my next video about it hehehe

[@scottphoneguy]

ur art is so good

[@fryeluver14]

I would just like to add to what you said about the rendering process meme as I also had a bit of a similar experience when I was younger. I wouldn’t draw noses when I was in primary school and kids would always pick on me for that to the point where I actually started drawing noses which I hated and for like 5 years after that I still drew noses which made me very unhappy with my art style but then I realised “wait I’m making this art for me not for others” and a stopped drawing noses and I know it sounds dramatic over just drawing a nose but ever since this change in my style my art has improved massively so if anyone tells anyone that the way they draw something is ugly just don’t listen draw things that make you happy

[@lovely.lovelylovely4285]

I just found you channel and its so nice to listen too while drawing! I graduated last year and totally feel you on being in art spaces with professionals 😭 I feel so behind all of a sudden!! Its always good to have short term goals with art to keep your passion! Anyway can’t wait to watch more by you in the future :D

[@Sifico]

I have some ocs and I would LOVE to make something like a comic or animation, but every time I start I end up getting tired/ get stuck (+ my art sucks)

[@ChantelleArts]

Oooooh I think I might need to get that blue micron 😍😍

omg congrats for finish highschool and also new fan i need to see all of your videos OMGOGMGOMGO

hi! i know this video is old.. whoops but.. congrats on finishing high school!! i am LOOKING FORWARD to that day!! but that’s sooo soo admirable :) great job

[@fishy_popstar]

DUDE OMG IVE BEEN IN A SPLATOON BLOCK for a while and it sucks bc I've loved splatoon for a long time and I haven't had anything to do I've also been in an art block and it feels terrible bc I have nothing I want and like to do:,)

[@jouusta]

thats exactly how i feel abt splatoon 🥲 unless there’s a salmon run event happening i usually just dont play at all,, i hope you get out of both of ur blocks lol!!

[@fishy_popstar]

yeah let's hope >:)

[@pancakes985]

CONGRATS ON FINISHING HIGHSCHOOL!!!! IL OVE THE SPREAD!!😻

[@cinnimani]

youve got the right idea just having a youtube and pinterest, getting a twitter/insta/tiktok/etc for your art specifically is soooo bad. as you said, it is tiring to keep them up!! but also for whatever one piece of art inspires you to draw, there will be a billion other reasons to make you feel awful. (

[@jouusta]

yeahh,,, i feel like a hypocrite bc i created an insta a week after posting this 😭😭 i just felt like i needed an easier means of communication to viewers and other creators that wasn’t just youtube comments,,, i havent even posted on it yet, but hopefully it wont stress me out too much! 🥲 also thank you so much!!

[@toasty-bread]

SHES BACK!! CONGRATS ON FINISHING HIGHSCHOOL!!

[@A13xAndraa1]

Congrats on finishing High School!!! Even though you had a lot of testing, you still were able to get this video out. Thank you for that! I hope college will be an even better experience for you! (If you are going-)

[@kathrynmarentette7120]

First video of yours that I’ve seen and I love the vibes! I just wanted to say, try not to be so hard on yourself with comparing to others. Of course you’re not at the same level as professional animators - you just graduated high school! (Congrats btw!! This is a huge achievement) You’re doing incredible for where you are in life and I’m looking forward to seeing your growth from here 😊

[@Bloomkyaaa]

As a 26 y/o woman I can say I miss school now lol. 😂 I miss my friends and working sucks. But alas, tis life. Congrats on finishing tho!! 🎉

[@memeboss9585]

Omg I'm late. Dude I stumbled upon this channel and I do not regret it. First of all I love splatoon so seeing u draw it... chefs kiss and second of all I love your art style and seeing u draw for your channel makes me even more determined to keep drawing and improving for mine. Thank you and u got a new sub =) ( srry I'm late)

[@zachiekaho5074]

the correct term is hyperfixation! Special interests are another thing :)

i went through an art training arc that lasted 2 years and now i can draw a lot without reference 👍

[@ogbohan]

i agree with the toxicity of tiktok but the rendering process person turned out to be a racist and said they were a minor but they were a grown adult 😭

[@jouusta]

first off i do not believe they are an adult 😭😭 i havent seen any proof regarding that but as for the other allegations, they have nothing to do w the fact that people relentlessly harassed ket regardless of whether or not they were problematic i dont like when people bring up this narrative because it makes it seem like all the hate was warranted, when really all it did was spread the idea that harassment for younger artists was ok thats not to say i stand by whatever ket did, i just think the whole fiasco was more than “lets bully this bad person”
