Wow 🤩

[@twocreativehands]

A fantastic resource for nature sketching is John Muir Laws. His website is packed with information and he also has a teachers section too. He’s written a couple books that are wonderful as well.

[@imolat502]

Wow, Jess, you are THE BEST! KZbin is sooo full of videos with clickbait titles and big promises that turn out to be pretty disappointing, providing no or hardly any useful information. But this video!!! Wow! Thank you!

[@sophiaemilia3868]

Jess, you know what? I am 47 years old and while I am watching this, I keep on thinking: You are so sweet, your energy is full of live, passion and joy. Keep on going like this. You are painting like a goddess and on top of this you are a joy to watch by your own. Thank you for sharing all your gifts with us (not only your artistic ones ;-)) You are so young, but you seem to be on a very good path.

[@artofjesskarp]

Thank you so much

[@elexaadanna601]

I have never come across anyone who answers all the questions you didn’t know you wanted answers to. You are born to do this Jess. An inspiring artist for so many reasons, and at the same time smooth as silk in your professionalism and expertise. And a teacher who knows exactly what’s needed and delivers it. Thank you

[@mrs.joestar]

The cinematography, the animation and information displayed here are chef kissed. Tysm Jess for taking the time to help as well as inspire new crreatives like us today. I really and truly appreciate it, jeez I even cry a little when you touch on some of the topics that I struggled with💙

[@artofjesskarp]

Aw!! thank you so much thats really lovely thanks for watching - hope you found it helpful

Thank you!! Working hard for improvements everyday ! I appreciate it

[@Angela10277088]

This is so helpful and exciting! Thank you so much for your hard work and generosity! You are amazing Jess! 🥰

[@_JoyceArt]

I'm really excited, as I've loved drawing and painting basically all my life. But ended up in finance, not the creative industry. However, I get asked even by colleagues why I'm not working as an artist. So I've enrolled myself in an in-person weekly 3-hour art class, starting in September. While I like using youtube and such as resources, I truly hope having structured guidance by an established artist helps me develop more. :)

[@artofjesskarp]

That’s incredible congrats! And best of luck ✨

[@sudhalakshmiranganathan756]

Hi Jess i am Laya and studying in seventh grade... You are my girst inspiration and thank you your drawing are sooo cool ... Thank you jess for inspiring me!

[@luciedaskova6387]

I'm watching your beautiful channel for a year and I need to say you inspired me so many times. I also learned a lot of things. You showed me some new techniques like drawing with ballpoint pen. And you inspired me through your videos to make more art and be creative. I'm not very good at drawing and painting, but you are giving me hope that one day I'll be able to draw or paint o lot of things. Thank you so much for your beautiful videos. Have a great day❤

YOU outdid yourself this time!!! I just came back from a weekend getaway to get some artistic inspirations in the state of Texas, and what a treat do I get as I get back!!!! You are a wonderful and humble individual to share all these resources with all of us (besides being one of the most creative young girls I have seen). The best part of all of this is receiving that monthly envelope as a patreon supporter of yours. Thank you for this Jess... waiting to see your future workshops and attending one of them!

[@habli_art]

This is sooo useful Jess, I also started using Milanote to plan my paintings and my youtube videos, it makes the planning much easier and visual. Love the part on color palettes, I will start using these resources for my next piece ❤

[@SharonCullenArt]

Jess I just had to come back to thank you again. I plunged right into some of those websites and Line of Action has helped me so much. I never learned to draw figures, so I had no clue where to start. Now I understand what all those lines you put on your paper are all about. And understating “line of action” makes such a difference and applying the angles and head -rib cage - hips, is so helpful. Now I think I can get this. I will keep working at it. It would be nice to sit in an airport or a cafe and just draw people in the surroundings. I’m so excited.
