[@stephani3541]

i really love your longer videos, they’re so comforting. i replay them over and over when i draw because it inspires me

[@sketchesofshay]

awesome, thank you so much for watching!

[@allbirdsloverock]

ahhh baking and drawing! so smart. this was very homey and nice to watch

[@Issame_sasha_hello]

I absolutely LOVE these kind of podcasts/talks videos!! They’re so fun to listen while I work and gives so much to think about for business as an artist!! Your art is so lovely and I really enjoy how open you are about all the ins and outs

[@sketchesofshay]

I’m so happy you enjoyed it!! I really enjoyed making it!

[@critiqueofthegothgf]

off topic but im always amazed by your pre-sketches or sketches. theyre so good, you could basically stop there and not continue the painting process ,if you wanted because theyre masterpieces.

[@sketchesofshay]

AW thank you so much!! that means a lot!

[@imaneseddiki8532]

i love this style of your videos so much!! its kinda like a little art podcast its so comforting. i love watching your videos while i crochet :]

[@sketchesofshay]

im so happy you like it!! we really want to make more content like this on my channel :)

[@nevisnebis1207]

Bake and Draw featuring Mr Steve is back!

[@sketchesofshay]

[@critiqueofthegothgf]

1 hour vlog LETS GOOOOOOOO THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!!

[@sketchesofshay]

YAYYYYY

[@mediocreartiste]

UGH YOU GUYS ARE ACTUALLY SO CUTE. The jerma drawings you guys did were so goofy and skilful, it’s so cool. I was wondering if I could use you guys as some of my “inspiring artists” for my art classes? I have to do writing and I’d rather be genuinely inspired by the artists I pick than just google people lmao.

[@sketchesofshay]

that's really sweet of you to consider us!! feel free to mention us, we would be honored

[@lluminescenttl]

I can finally listen while i draw WOOOOOOOO so hyped for episode 2 : )

[@sketchesofshay]

YAYYYYY hope you have a good drawing session!

[@syrus_the_inevitable]

I really love your videos. I know I'm kind of new to your channel and this video isn't super recent, but I love being able to come watch your videos, I find them so helpful and inspiring. You and your art are one of the biggest motivations for me recently as I have been sort of stuck and unmotivated because of school and looming college stuff and just a lot of junk in general. But I'm drawing and finding comfort in my art again as well as really enjoying what I'm making. So thank you for being an amazing motivation to get me out of my art block and for just being real. 💗💗💗

[@kazicallystupid]

i love your art, and hearing you talk about this stuff is super relatable and makes me feel less alone in my art journey :) also the way you both position the camera to only show below your face reminds me of when in cartoon's when the parent's heads are cut off by the camera /pos

[@sketchesofshay]

LOLLL omg totally!! and so happy this video helped !

[@flameggyoshi2719]

Discovered this channel recently & I really enjoy this Art podcast! All of the topics Y'all discussed really hits Hard; I'm a beginner artist myself so hearing these messages about motivation & enjoyment from y'all really helps me smile w/ the struggles 🌺

[@sketchesofshay]

happy that this was encouraging!! keep going, you got this!

[@Iktekenkatjes]

Loved this! All your insights (about how every artist is unique and nobody will be able to do what you do, as well as confidence issues) were really good to hear. I know almost every artist struggles with confidence, but it's easy to fall into a ''everyone else is so confident and talented and here i am just making silly drawings, i will never have what it takes'' kind of mindset. In reality, there are always people out there who appreciate your (yes, also ''you'' who is reading this right now, your art is probably sick or will be in the future, keep going!) unique art, I just hope one day it will be easier to reach those people without having to be a social-media wizzard. This is now my new favourite ''podcast'' haha, curious to hear your future conversations!!❤

[@sketchesofshay]

so happy to be your unoffical podcast, I can't wait to post more videos like this !! and thank you for sharing your experience, it feels good to know we're not alone in our struggles :)

[@sketchesofshay]

[@Weevilest]

Great video as always! This got me through my painting homework 😭 i really relate to the deadlines and homework taking away from being able to do personal art. 6 paintings in 4 days really doesn’t leave time for my ocs 💔

[@sketchesofshay]

glad the video could help... hope you get your paintings done!! sounds crazy!

[@Faebug]

this video is so comforting and therapeutic thank you so much! I love listening and drawing along your vids are so lovely!! ^^

[@sketchesofshay]

[@hosypips]

yayy! i love bake and draws, they feel so cosy 💖

[@sketchesofshay]

YAYYY hope you enjoy this one!

[@critiqueofthegothgf]

22:48 kim jung gi said the same thing. not to draw what you see in order to not adopt the mindset of copying a subject 1:1 because cameras can already do that. instead, focusing on stylization and capturing and understanding the structure of the subject

[@sketchesofshay]

words of wisdom!

[@Kailis_World]

yay love your videos and art! your doing great :D

[@sketchesofshay]

thank you so much for watching them!

[@camscraftycorner7839]

Your art is sooo good :) love the vid

[@sketchesofshay]

thank you so much!! and thank you for watching!

[@ivannnyy]

I know it's kinda weird but like, if you'd consider to do a tutorial on how you draw heads and eyes because I've been drawing for about two years now but I'm still struggling with eyes and placement of the nose. And drawing heads makes me feel weird because all of artist do it so differently than me so I'm kinda insecure about it

[@sketchesofshay]

i made a video recommending some artists that have helped me with anatomy and things like that!: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ-7m3qYfqishLc

[@charlieb.flowers8098]

I’m so late to this but it’s such a good vid!!!

[@cleo19]

Hey Shay! What about you n your bf making some strawberry Saul n blueberry bill themed cookies? That would be amazing!

[@sketchesofshay]

that's a great idea!! we'll put it on the list!

[@anton_ultradeluxegeek]

haii, how many inches is your iPad?

[@itshel2677]

not gonna lie I was expecting a different type of video under this title lol

[@sketchesofshay]

I hope you liked it still! 💖 do you have any recommendations on how I should title videos like this in the future?

[@itshel2677]

@@sketchesofshay Oh keep the naming it's my fault. I thought you meant "bake" as in getting baked not the acual act of baking. But still a very fun video and sorry for the misconception

[@sketchesofshay]

LOLLL that would be a fun video idea tho (responsibly)

[@ChubbyThemma]

I've been binging your videos during my off work hours, it's singlehandedly motivated me to start a sketchbook and start drawing again! TY for your continued service to the arts, soldier 🫡 i had a question cause I cant seem to find an actual answer to it, but you mention in the middle of the video (i think its at 22:45) while talkin bout practical tips, that you Shouldnt draw what you see and I wanted to know what that means exactly? Everything I look up is giving me the opposite answer, that I SHOULD draw what I see 😭

[@bluchio]

i love this so much; the art is absolutely gorgeous and the tips are so helpful and also just good to know in the future!! 😭 the art style is so beautiful and pumpkin muffins sound so good frenkufherisoserhuf;; the art of Herbert West is also so fuxking dope arghfkshr 💚🧪‼️‼️‼️

[@sketchesofshay]

I'm so happy you enjoyed it!! AND JUST YOU WAIT! I finish the reanimator piece in next Friday's video (or you can see the finished version up on my instagram right now) but I think you'll really like it!
