when i was in my teens, i showed my bro an artist improvement thing from one of my fave artists, and he was like "well yeah, duh, of course they got better over the years". But it took WORK. They didn't just get better because time passed. I'm proud of all you other artists out there for putting in all that work!!!

[@nooga5325]

Thank you very much Sam for showing my work in the video and for your kind words, means a lot to me :) It’s so inspiring seeing how much each and every one improved, hard work really does pay !

"In the absence of the training necessary to reveal it and the effort necessary to sustain it 'talent', if it exists at all, vanishes" This is written on my bedroom door to always remind myself to stay persistent and believe in my own improvement

Genuinely, youtubers like Sam are what helped me improve in my art. They inspired me to go out of my comfort zone, try new things, and simply get more confident. I have learned so much in such a short period of time thanks to them

[@spectralsaint]

love the energy of this video! super inspiring to see peoples improvements, makes it feel all that much more attainable!

[@kuroshiro_111]

I started Art when I was 8 or 9 (13 now) and I’m so mad becuase it always feels like my art style is getting worse. But then I remebered Some art channels that I wanted to watch to improve and YOU YES YOU SAM you helped my digital art get better. I still need to work on style, but I’m working on coloring and rendering stuff.

[@SansanEditer]

As an artist, I don’t like calling myself on even though I do draw and as much as I see people improve over a year or 2. I got to say, it’s crazy putting that much effort and time to be able to make it happen! And they really inspire me, Sam you make me want to improve more than I could ever imagine! Thank you for always helping us! I started drawing 6 years ago and your one of the best artist I could ever look up too! Of course my art improved cause you make me never give up! THANK YOU!😭😭💕

[@MartinGillArt]

This was so wholesome, seeing the improvement of so many artists is just inspiring, but then Sam’s positivity and encouragement just makes my heart full.

[@Some_Awe]

The pace at which people improve is so insane, I'm 27 and casually drawing all my life and I'm nowhere near what people manage to learn in a single year, amazing

Now these days she has moved to bigger platforms with better art tools. I’m still in awe of how much her art style has grown through the years.

I'm one of the people who did a bunch of improvement in one year, and I was about to say I didn't work hard at all I just randomly got better, but then I realized how many tutorials I watched including you that helped me. I'm so proud of myself, and thank you :)

[@KhayJayArt]

I've had times where I didn't draw for weeks and when I started drawing again my stuff looked way better than before. I was told that actively observing stuff when ur not drawing can also improve ur skill bc u have better understanding of how things look. Nothing to do with the video but I though it would be interesting to share.

[@impireon]

A year ago, I didn't draw wrinkles in clothing, used only the airbrush tool to shade, only drawing with a bad anime art style, and the line tool. Now, I've been drawing every day, trying to finish a piece every week, and I've completely changed my style. My lighting has drastically improved, I use a variety of oil paint brushes in my shading, and I've gained much needed confidence to draw harder things, (Angles, lighting senarios, ext.)

[@vynder3304]

dang didn't make the cut this time around but congrats to all my fellow artists on their improvement and let's keep moving forward!

As a new artist who has only started about a month or two ago making improvements has been hard mostly because idk what I want my style to be and I have no clue what I wanna draw.
