Doing cool art stuff I could never dream of creating. And yet, he gets excited by a rolled up stick of paper that I've been using to blend graphite since 7th grade. It's wholesome, but like, how???

[@thedawar9273]

Roll paper and twist the end to a point. Blender.

[@momsspaghetti286]

The hairspray one really depends on which type/brand of hairspray you use, wait until the spray is completely dry and make sure you sprayed every part. ALSO DO NOT USE THIS METHOD IF YOU COLORED WITH WATER/INK/ALCOHOL BASED MARKERS, it will smudge and soak through the paper since hairspray often contains water and/or alcohol. I've been using this method for years and it works great. Hope this helps :)

[@derdes4475]

Adding to this: You need the hairspray that is used to do things like mohawks and other crazy hairdoes. The lacquer that gives thoes styles their stiffness is what forms the protective layer over the graphite.

[@SarkadiZsolt]

In art school we mostly used hairspray on charcoal because it's cheap and doing its job, as long as you won't start intentionally smudging your work, just want to keep it in your dossier.

[@yuna6705]

That's also what I thought since I do use this method sometimes especially if I used dry pastels for making art and afterwards it's not smudgy at all

[@Roozyj]

@@SarkadiZsolt Same, I've sealed so many sketches with hairspray that I needed to show at the end of the semester xD It does smell terrible though and I feel sorry for my drawing teacher from back then xD

Hairspray also yellows over time your best bet is to by fixative which is an aerosol spray made specifically for keeping your drawings from smudging.

No idea if it's true, but she showed me some of her work and it has yellowed over time ^^'

My high school art teacher said blending stumps were cheating so I’ve never gotten into using one. I feel like as I’ve grown as an artist I’ve decided very few things are “cheating” the point is to have fun and make things.

[@orchdork775]

Yea, the point is to create an image inspired either from real life, or from your imagination, so it shouldn't matter what techniques are used to get to that end result. All that matters is the finished piece, and whether or not you are happy with how it looks. That being said, I do think that it's good to make sure students aren't reliant on blending stumps, because doing most of the blending with pencils gives you more control. Did he say that blending with your finger is cheating, too, or was it just blending stumps? If he was okay with finger blending, then that just doesn't make sense, because your finger gets oil and dirt all over your paper, so a blending stump would be far superior.

[@sarah345]

@@orchdork775 I agree :) and no he didn't want us blending with our fingers either. Like you said, he did probably just want us to learn to blend with the pencil, and not rely on smudging. He was actually a really great teacher, I had him for 4 years and he was really invested in his classes. He ran the special art program at my high school so we all took 2 art credits a year and sometimes both were with him. He also recommended that we all paint exclusively with red, yellow, blue, and white paint, which was a bit extreme, but also a great exercise for becoming really good at colour mixing (and for saving money on paint lol). for some reason though it stuck with me the way he said blending stumps were cheating so I just never used them and didn't really think about why (I also didn't buy pre mixed paint colours for at least my first two years of university lol)

which one's yours?

[@garydemonic]

when it comes to the hairspray to prevent smudges it does work. you have to get the cheapest hair spray you can. high end sprays are mostly water and won't work. Hair Net spray is probably the best you can get for it. but then again you can use matte spray finishers like Jazza did, but they're a lot more expensive.

[@FNashYT.Twitch]

About the sketch book thing, I do that too but not just with drawing. With anything on paper I tend to keep it all on one side cause I only really use pencil and I don't like it smearing, it also just feels right

[@jessicashippeehealcalm9943]

That 1st one works! I've done that with tracing paper since I was a kid! Trace it, flip it, heavy pencil lines. Turn back over, place on paper, retrace! Viola! The sketched version, that you can redraw, color, add flair to, etc! Using tracing paper, makes it even easier to see the original, rather than just scribbling a bunch on the back. You can actually just go over the "real" drawing", so no guessing if you got all the edges.

In case of the hair spray hack, as far as I remember from my life drawing classes (loooong long long time ago) it depended on the brand, quality and/or composition of the hair spray and it required a little bit of trial and error to find one that would work (depending on what brands you could locally get). Usually the cheaper/crappier they were, the better they worked as sealants.

I love using a blending stump/stick! Would recommend for smooth blends when using media such as pencils, charcoal, coloring pencils, or similar.

I like to tell my students that I've made plenty of mistakes to teach you guys not to make so that you can find the new ones and figure out how to solve them. Another real good tip is to take photos of your artwork and flip them around in the edit mode and you can see plenty of mistakes that you need to correct with your anatomy.

I'm the same!! My friends always used to call me out on never using the left side of the sketchbook. If I use the left side I have to turn the sketchbook upside down so that's becomes the right side.

Another way to store custom mixed paint that you want to save? Silicone cosmetics containers for traveling. They are usually air tight, small, and washable. I recently found that using little silicone pots (commonly used for a certain resin smokeable substance) work even better, and you can get them for much cheaper than the travel cosmetic containers. I found a pack of 30 on amazon for $13 USD

Don't tell me you've gone your whole like without these! 2:30 jazza you need it they're so nice!

As someone who watches Super Rae Dizzle on a daily basis and is subscribed to her, the “Hey, it’s Rae!” was just so wholesome for me

[@Ruby..lalala]

tbh, I didn't know what a blending stump was til quite recently, and so I completely understand Jazza. But the transfer technique! you have to know that!!!!

[@syaz._9157]

Lets just give him a hug and a moment of silence cuz for the rest of his life he was a professional artist he had every art tools accept for one a blending stump

[@neok1yte494]

I can’t be alone having no clue what a blending stump is

[@ashleighsutton2553]

Blending stumps are really useful for pastel drawings sometimes

[@inesabelha4384]

My art teacher used to say that a blending stump is an artist's worst enemy because the drawings become pasty and dirty, and if we ever used it we didn't know how to blend. Sooo because of her no one in my class used it

[@cinnamonflower6449]

3:50 actually, the hack to fix your artwork with hair spray does work at least when you use coal... I never tried it with graphit. But I fix all my coal drawings and sketches with it

[@-..cloudfall..-]

You’ve never used blending stumps?! How have you never even heard of them?!

[@raeorion]

The editor wins the duet of the day 😅💜

[@heidicroucher]

I watched this video when it was first posted... but Im still flabbergasted that Jazza had never used, much less heard of, a blending stump until this video!!!! 🤯

[@gyraniball7494]

The tinfoil hack is incredibly wasteful though...just take the few minutes and clean whatever your using 🙌🏽✨

[@zyclopzzarts]

Jazza: Let me teach you shading Also jazza: What is a Blending Stump

[@fan_no.1232]

This guy have been drawing for so many years and don't know what a blending stump is? I can't even imagine drawing without one

[@lola_drawings5719]

Jazza : I'm professional artist Also jazza : what's a blending stump

[@IndianCook]

Me after looking at notifications and seeing a new video from Jazza: yay I'll give it three fourth or fifth like and comment Me after opening the video: oh, is 12k views, 2.5k likes and 200+ comments already -_-

[@foxbean4363]

Yeah same....

[@ivygarcia6878]

At least you didn't expect to be first 🤷

[@AlyssaPerrine]

sorry, i'm genuinely crying right now. i was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder when we thought it was bipolar my entire life. because of this, art was a huge outlet. i found your channel when you were just celebrating one million, and you responded to one of my comments. to now see FIVE POINT FIVE MILLION? after finding this channel again after a year or two? its so overwhelming because youve deserved it from DAY ONE. gosh.

[@brandienichole7474]

I know I’m late but I can’t believe the great Jazza has never seen a blending stump until then. They are all over the US, even in Walmart and dollar stores.

[@elizabethfisher6164]

Blending stumps are SO HELPFUL, especially with graphite and charcoal. Highly recommend.

[@itz_kybrrr]

Man, this is the reason why I wish my parents would allow me to have Tik-tok. Some people in Tik-Tok's art community are really helpful, and plus I want to participate in stuff like this and be able to share it with Jazza

[@rexart426]

13:33 Jazza is tyler1 lite “aah help” 😂

[@selenaforrester6805]

I use the right side of my sketchbook because I’m right handed and the spiral bound sketchbooks I buy hurt my hand/wrist when I’m using the left side. It’s just more comfortable to use the right side. My media of choice is also usually sharpie or ink and it bleeds through to the back.

[@sampseon4340]

Hey jazza! Just saw this and the hair spray one does actually work for studio work when you don't have the actual product! It does take a good bit and you need to let it dry for a day but it has saved muuuuuch more than without!

[@redvelvet9215]

That method will yellow your art 0/10 hack

[@UnzippedFizz]

I actually use hair spray in my sketchbook just to stop sketches and stuff from transferring over the pages-so i think it might just be the brand?? It's always worked for me so idk-

[@AshriyaJaveed]

What brand you use?

[@UnzippedFizz]

@@AshriyaJaveed Honestly it's just a cheap one from a british store called Boots-I'm pretty sure it's just the store's own brand. Cost like £1.50 or something

[@UnzippedFizz]

@@AshriyaJaveed Ok i actually went and double checked cause i didnt wanna give you the wrong info and yeah it's just "Boots, Extra firm hold hairspray" Unperfumed

[@dinkletree3561]

doesn’t it ruin the art tho? what if ur using watercolor pencils?

[@UnzippedFizz]

@@dinkletree3561 Doesnt ruin the art! All of my sketches have been 100% ok. If you're going to try it with water colour pencils or different mediums like that who i'd recommend doing a swatch page and then spraying it with a few layers to see if any dont react well to it. I did that and figured out that one of my pens did bleed a little when made wet, but aside from that everything else was oki.
