"Not every technique works every time" is honestly such a good thing to keep in mind. I definitely get stuck doing the same thing over and over so I'll have to remember this next time 😅
"i dont even have hair" that made me laugh so much lol I love your videos and have been watching you for almost 1 and a half years i think and have always enjoy your videos
I love that the texture mattered. It was important to capture that specific authentic hair instead of dropping into something more comfortable for you. Beautiful work as always!
Please keep doing these long form videos! Idk if they’re picking up yet, but I have confidence they will soon! Hearing your thoughts in a format that’s not rushed is really fun
this LITERALLY also happened to me one time. i was working with pixel art, which is basically a digital drawing made with squares. i was trying to make a rock wall, i tried for a few days, just pushing pixels around, trying to get that "aha" moment where everything just clicks. it did eventually happen and i gotta say, your reaction was the same as mine's 😂
Thank you for the in depth explanation of your process. Showing us that even experienced artists can struggle. I truly feel better, knowing that it is ok to 'not get it in one try'. 😊❤
I love the longer videos soooo much! It gives me such a spark of joy and creativity! I love the shorts too but the longer ones is such a seratonin boost! I love the livestreams as companionship if I am doing something and want to mostly listen and take a peek from time to time, the shorts either show me what I missed from the live or teach me something or give me lots of well needed encouragement or inspiration or something and these longer format videos is what I usually consume on youtube. Art videos where I can both watch and listen whether I'm learning or being entertained or both. If it doesn't feel right for you and your channel I'll be plenty happy from the other formats, but gosh I will soak it in for as long as you experiment with it if it is just a temporary. I appreciate you a lot for all the hard work that you do. :) Thank you Scott!
It's really encouraging to see that even expeienced artists sometimes run into problem after problem after problem. helps show that its not as much about being bad as it is literally just a part of the artistic process. kinda reminds me of my first time trying to go to great lengths to get the perspective right in one of my favourite pieces ive ever done - it probably took like 2 hours of fiddling, and it still wasn't quite right but i was happy with it. at the time it was really frustrating, but that's just how it is huh
I love this video format, it gives us more time to admire you art and more room for your kind words. Honestly your videos always make me go back to my sketchbook, even when I didn't feel like it. Thank you and keep up the great work ❤
Normally im not a fan of when people outline the figures in the work but i think the yellow was a really good choice! She looks like shes glowing :] Great stuff!
Your work is so positive :) despite being a professional artist having fun in a sketchbook gives me extreme anxiety when it used to be fun. Your videos make me want to try it again :)
thank you for posting this scott. i havent seen one where you struggle before. and i appreciate it. not because i wanted to see you struggle. but because i struggle and you are an amazing artist the stuff you make is amazing. and if you have moments where you are struggling with your art, it makes me feel a bit better about me struggling in art. sometimes i struggle and try different stuff and get frustrated and want to quit. im glad you got it to how you wanted. :)
Thank you for showing your trial and error, it’s nice to know that all artists struggle. I drew the worst portrait ever yesterday, but now I might go back and see what I can fix.
I think u r one of the most amazing artists, your kindness really speaks to me. Plus, ur videos pretty much transformed me from a landscape artist to a portrait artist
As Barbosa in POTC once said: "You have to be lost to find a place that can't be found" - one of my fav quotes :)) I took it as sometime you have to be "lost", not knowing what you are doing to but push through that and you will end up finding something new and truly special. Congrat on finding a new technique for hair texture!! The harder the journey the sweater the prize ♡♡♡ and the prize was pretty indeed ♡♡♡
I so appreciate you posting stuff like this. 🙂 Showing us that even seasoned professionals sometimes have to experiment and try different things over and over and get frustrated before the art becomes gorgeous!! I LOVE how this turned out, by the way! Super lovely!
It's a privilege and a delight to witness your process at work - especially in this case when the ideas aren't working. The end result is inspired and simply stunning. I love the detail work on her hair so much!❤
This is the way, I really liked this video. I think this really was supposed to be a long format video rather than a horizontal short. Great job Scott!
I actually just shared your page with two of my friends today, and one of the things I cited that I enjoyed about your content is exactly this video! Or rather, the fact that you're not afraid to show us your mistakes, frustrations, and puzzlement with art. Something that's kind of interesting to me about watching someone mess up, is that you might see something in that mistake that still inspires you to try the technique, yourself. Like, maybe someone out there saw your squiggly coloured pencil technique and thought, "THAT is what will both look good on my own project!" Maybe it's comfortable to them because it's within their skill range, or conversely, perhaps it's exciting because it's NOT something they're familiar with trying or using. One of these days, I'd really like to try some of the techniques I've seen in your paintings, like the blotches of colour being used to emphasise shape in hair. I think that's both an intriguing and fun idea to try my hand at, as I've always drawn hair strand-by-strand, so to speak (more like strategised scribbles, with repetition being used to fill in or shade certain areas), as my mediums of choice are super fine mechanical pencils (.3mm Steadtler), and ballpoint pen for line work, and PrismaColour pencils or watercolour for colour. I only just got into watercolour a few years ago, though, so despite my decades of drawing experience, I'm a complete novice when it comes to paints... Honestly, I was kind of terrified of switching to watercolour at first, but it's been really nice to breathe with a medium I MUST be kind and forgiving to myself while using. I've used pencils my whole life, and I can mend some mighty impressive details with them... but that's the exact problem I ended up with: Too much detail made art too frustrating to be fun. So I switched to ballpoint, which I have to be forgiving to myself for mistakes and learn how to work with or around mistakes because there's no erasing, and watercolour for similar reasons, and because being new to the medium, I wouldn't be doing myself any favours by being harsh on myself.
I actually really like the pencil lines in the beginning not for the whole hair and the whole thing but it looks nice as a few strays on a piece to be a detail of someone starting to get grays
This is what I needed today. Today, I drew 3 sketches and I was very disappointed with them. For the first one something was wrong about it but I could not put my finger on it. For the next 2 I just kinda gave up after going half the way through because I did not like where they were heading. I will try again tomorrow though. You taught me that any artist no matter the experience can struggle at times. Thank you so much.
This was so inspiring to me. I've been having issues with my art not looking the way I want it to because of the pressure of IB at school. Due to this I'm late to submitting one of my pieces because I feel like I hate everything I draw. After watching this though I felt inspired to try again, and after a bit of pushing myself I came out with what I think is one of my best pieces. I can't believe I didn't find you sooner but now that I have you bet I'm gonna watch these videos while I work on my IB art pieces!!!
Im so happy when you finish the drawing and i really love how relentless and patient you are with your art🔥🔥 Now im motivated to do my art that ive been doing for 3 months , thanks❤
I did an interpretation in Art class of the Freddie Mercury piece on your site, and this is exactly what I found in that painting as well! Sometimes, even when life is hard, you gotta be brave and be authentic. There's wisdom riddled althroughout your paintings, man! :)
Full video was great! I think every artist has had issues with redoing something so many times that it loses all meaning, but I can't imagine the pressure of also being live at the time. Massive kudos for pulling it off!
I've been loving this long-form videos! Your topics are amazing and this one is actually relatable. Repeating just a part like a fixation is so exhausting but wow how it looks in the end was worth exploring! Thank you for sharing ❤
I learned two things from watching the live, and the video recap. I need to buy acrylic gouache, because I often end up using the "kitchen sink" method in my art. Nice to know I am not alone on my artist's island, thanks Scott!
Really cool! That blue texture reminded me of a fire like substance, i dont know why. But then i thought it would be really cool to see fire being incorporated as the hair.
This is such a wonderful video. I love that you didn’t give up and I love how many options to choose from! It’s so incredible watching an artist who has been working on the craft for decades. So much knowledge and technique and mastery to watch unfold. Also watching a true struggle and seeing options that I know others would have chosen but you knew it wasn’t the right option, not for this person’s texture, not for this shape and the way you wanted it to be. so you tried and tried and tried and again and again and again and then when you got it it felt like an explosion of energy. I have no idea how you were able to paint all of that texture in only 20 minutes but I watching the Timelapse it looked like a combo of your experience, your excitement and the total win because it you just flowed through the curves.
Yaaayy I brought the likes to 500 (I love how he would talk about where he got his inspiration from and how he even shared his struggles with all of us. Not all artists have good days we don't all nail it on the first try)
To get that type of hair texture from your reference photo you need to sharpen your colored pencil with a box cutter or knife so more of the waxy pigment lead will show through and hold the colored pencil almost parallel but slightly off dragging the pencil side across the paper. Basically grazing the colored pencil on its side across the paper to emphasize the bumpy texture of the paper. It's a technique Proko and other charcoal drawers use. However if your using a smooth hot press paper the results may vary or basically non-existent lol
I love the honesty in your video and it helps to know that mistakes can be eradicated and look at that fantastic outcome! No one would ever know it was once a bad hair day! Beautiful work! (Again!)
I really liked the pacing and length of this video! Do you think you'd ever do a longer speed paint (like 10-30 minutes) maybe with life updates or something else for the voice-over?
Thanks for the video. I've been drawing for a little over a year now and i haven't drawn too much lately out of a combination of frustration with feeling my technique isn't improving and just life getting in the way. Showing your frustration with getting the texture of hair correct was pretty humanising and reminded me that even experienced artists hit road blocks. Watching it all come together in your beautiful portrait with with vibrant colours really restored my enthusiasm again, so I'll definitely make time again to draw. Cheers!
I've had exams for 2 months now and your videos are keeping me afloat! I love seeing your enthusiasm and how you walk us through the process of creating😊.Thank you!
I absolutely love this painting SO SO much!! 😮 I wonder if prints will be available for it. I wish. Had a over sized hoodie just filled with squares of Scotts art. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
I do have a sketchbook but I mainly do sketches, calligraphy, some creative stuff and some anime drawings.😊 You have a lot of patience Scott and I really respect you for that❤. I mean whenever I make a mistake in my sketchbook, I just cover it up😅
A tricky thing I learned about textures and patterns not even that long ago was sometimes you need to fill a larger area before you can tell if it works, not just a little corner. Meaning, a little bit of [texture x] on a piece may look like a massive mistake, but, curiously, a whole lot of it can make it right - take it to the next level even. Same thing applies conversely too; a good-looking texture on a small area can experience an inflating effect if continued too far. Or not! 😄 You just have to see. Of course, experience makes it easier to spot early on if a texture is right or not.
This is a stunning piece! I appreciate it all the more for having seen the way you struggled with finding the perfect method for her hair. I also have to mention the way you took such care and finished the background and outlines, it was so satisfying to watch. Thank you for your teachings and hard earned skill, it's so inspiring!
I miss having the energy for doodling... I was in charge with a project until a couple a days ago that took most of my time.. coming next week I hope to return to your lives and start sketching again! 😊
You really inspired me to pick up art again, and even though it's not the best, I'm having a blast with it again. Thank you for helping me pick it back up
I just had a bad hair day YESTERDAY! I was trying a new cartoon style from my favorite game , Gacha life 2.... And the hair almost ruined my painting But I tried to ignore the hair texture in the reference photo.. I kinda experimented on my own ... In the end .. I was kinda happy with the result of the hair... Scott.. I RELATE TO YOU SO MUCH !
So what I learnt from one of my old art teachers was “bleed proof” paper isn’t meant to mean it doesn’t bleed threw the paper it means the paper shodden drink the ink when you put the marker on the page if it pulls the ink out and almost makes a cloud of over draw your meant to have a protective sheet under but if your still looking for a bleed proof no leek sketch book the ohuhu one is pretty good
I loved watching this process with the lives and also this video! It helped to such especially since i also had this happen to me in some of my recent art pieces
When my art is having a bad hair day, I belly flop onto my bed and whine about for the rest of the day bc it’s hard to find time to draw nowadays and the few times I do get time, my artistic abilities yeet themselves out of existence.
"sometimes the art wants to be what the art want to be" I'm gonna need that framed or something
😂
"Not every technique works every time" is honestly such a good thing to keep in mind. I definitely get stuck doing the same thing over and over so I'll have to remember this next time 😅
"i dont even have hair" that made me laugh so much lol

Please keep doing these long form videos! Idk if they’re picking up yet, but I have confidence they will soon! Hearing your thoughts in a format that’s not rushed is really fun
I really agree!
The trial and error really pays off its so hard to see the light at the end of the road when doing art its amazing
this LITERALLY also happened to me one time. i was working with pixel art, which is basically a digital drawing made with squares. i was trying to make a rock wall, i tried for a few days, just pushing pixels around, trying to get that "aha" moment where everything just clicks. it did eventually happen and i gotta say, your reaction was the same as mine's 😂
A sketch becoming a full project is something I relate to all too much. Always comes to bite when you don't expect it
Engagement! Thanks for showing how you worked through the frustration. It's nice to know even masters struggle aha
"What I Do When My ART is Having a Bad Hair Day""
........I tear and throw it away
Came from the short because I had to see how this turned out! It's so beautiful!!!!
I love the texture, and the cobalt is amazing
“I-I don’t even have hair” -Scott
I felt that. (thanks for another amazing video!!)
I love your art Scott, I really appreciate you!!
Thank you for the in depth explanation of your process. Showing us that even experienced artists can struggle. I truly feel better, knowing that it is ok to 'not get it in one try'. 😊❤
i love these longer videos!!!!!
I love your art!!! And it’s awesome that you share your process when something’s not working. Keep it up.
Thank you for being so real about your process

Who wants to see scott without a cap on 😅
“I- I don’t even have hair”
-wise words by a wise hobbit
this was lovely to watch :) thank you for your dedication to keeping her texture 💙

Afro textured hair is so fun to draw. So many cool techniques and styles!
As someone who plays around with watercolors and chromatic watercolors... You make me really want to try out gouache! This was a fantastic video.
I think u r one of the most amazing artists, your kindness really speaks to me. Plus, ur videos pretty much transformed me from a landscape artist to a portrait artist

Congrat on finding a new technique for hair texture!! The harder the journey the sweater the prize ♡♡♡ and the prize was pretty indeed ♡♡♡
That's so amazing! i love seeing your art it always makes me happy!
I love how we can really see the process in your shorts your art just looks perfect but I guess here we all have our days.
I so appreciate you posting stuff like this. 🙂 Showing us that even seasoned professionals sometimes have to experiment and try different things over and over and get frustrated before the art becomes gorgeous!! I LOVE how this turned out, by the way! Super lovely!

You are just the best! Love the longer videos! And really love seeing an artist work through the struggles. So inspiring.
I love how open you are with the ups and the downs and everything when it comes to art. It's cool and refreshing to have that kind of honesty.

Thanks Scott, I have built up the courage to fill my empty sketchbook with art ‼️
This is my favorite hair of yours, so beautiful!
I've been loving this long-form videos! Your topics are amazing and this one is actually relatable. Repeating just a part like a fixation is so exhausting but wow how it looks in the end was worth exploring! Thank you for sharing ❤

Art has a mind of its own; taming it can be difficult
Really cool! That blue texture reminded me of a fire like substance, i dont know why. But then i thought it would be really cool to see fire being incorporated as the hair.

I remember this live. I'm happy you finally figured it out.
How do you make such good hair?!!?!
this is so inspiring, such an important lesson ☺☺
You sir, inspire me a lot
Usually with my style the hair is just a shape without much definition, kinda inspired by Klimt, but you gave me so many fun ideas I want to try out.
I really liked the pacing and length of this video! Do you think you'd ever do a longer speed paint (like 10-30 minutes) maybe with life updates or something else for the voice-over?
I'm going to keep trying these longer videos, so, who knows?
Man, I love your content and vibes. I don’t think I can word it better. It’s just so much fun to watch your stuff :D
I appreciate that!
these longer videos are amazingggg
Looks awesome 😊 I'm glad you kept working with it! Worth the time and effort 🎉
Thanks for the video. I've been drawing for a little over a year now and i haven't drawn too much lately out of a combination of frustration with feeling my technique isn't improving and just life getting in the way.

I really don't like bad hair days. Both personally and with my art. It's annoying, but drawing hair is kinda fun.
I do have a sketchbook but I mainly do sketches, calligraphy, some creative stuff and some anime drawings.😊
You have a lot of patience Scott and I really respect you for that❤. I mean whenever I make a mistake in my sketchbook, I just cover it up😅

Thank you so much!
Hi Scott! Thank you for sharing this amazing art journey with us, it fills me with excitment every time you upload a new video ❤
Scott is like modern day bob Ross ✨
Love your art !!!
I miss having the energy for doodling... I was in charge with a project until a couple a days ago that took most of my time.. coming next week I hope to return to your lives and start sketching again! 😊
You really inspired me to pick up art again, and even though it's not the best, I'm having a blast with it again. Thank you for helping me pick it back up
I would have just done a black silhuette! As someone said: When in doubt, black it out! 😂
Ha. True. True.
This picture is beautiful.😊
I just had a bad hair day YESTERDAY! I was trying a new cartoon style from my favorite game , Gacha life 2.... And the hair almost ruined my painting But I tried to ignore the hair texture in the reference photo.. I kinda experimented on my own ... In the end .. I was kinda happy with the result of the hair... Scott.. I RELATE TO YOU SO MUCH !
I'm sorry you had to go through this on a livestream, but thank you for documenting it here for us.
So what I learnt from one of my old art teachers was “bleed proof” paper isn’t meant to mean it doesn’t bleed threw the paper it means the paper shodden drink the ink when you put the marker on the page if it pulls the ink out and almost makes a cloud of over draw your meant to have a protective sheet under but if your still looking for a bleed proof no leek sketch book the ohuhu one is pretty good
Maybe using black as the foundation wasn't the right call,
though I have no idea of color myself.
Black can actually be so cool as a foundation with gouache, I love doing shadows first and lights after when I paint
You're invited to the cookout.
I struggle with my irl hair and drawing hair 🤣
Experience wins out!
I loved watching this process with the lives and also this video! It helped to such especially since i also had this happen to me in some of my recent art pieces
the first technique is the only one I've ever tried and failed miserably.😃
Sometimes, I put away a project for months and when I comeback it comes easy....or not. Art is weird.
Keep a "thumb nail" sketchbook on hand for the trial and error bits❤
Insaneo style!!
I could not paint hair to save my life.. or anything but this inspires me to try more
Como alguém consegue ser tão adorável. Keep up. You're doing great.
LEts GOOOO SCOTT UPLOADED 🎉🎉🎉
When my art is having a bad hair day, I belly flop onto my bed and whine about for the rest of the day bc it’s hard to find time to draw nowadays and the few times I do get time, my artistic abilities yeet themselves out of existence.
Scott, i love your channel and your art, thak you so much for the inspiration! Hugs from Brasil
