This video helped me realize that i should be more diverse with the things I do and practice. I forgot how fearless i was when i was new to art and that caused me to do the same practice routine for a while and never moving on to cooler stuff. Keep it up man cuz you’re doing really well and i wish you the best of luck on your art journey!!! (also blue period is awesome I agreeeee)
I think it depends on how old you are like when I was a teenager I drew really bad and then I stopped drawing and then I picked it up years later when I was older and I got way better way faster usually teenagers don't have very good motor skills so it takes them longer to get good compared to adults
@@williammclean6594 This happened to me as well. The downside of being an adult artist is that people tend to hate their art because they are not good enough. I'm not drawing as much as I used to
Ive been drawing for years and I think you're super talented and taking the right steps to learn!! I love the lines and shading on your final drawing. I also love blue period, it's so inspiring and relatable. Keep it up!!!
As an artist who has been drawing pretty seriously for 3 years I have to say,your observation skills ARE TOP NOTCH probably as good as me who has developed my observation for YEARS..when I saw those drawings yes I saw imperfections but my god u captured it really nicely and ur figure drawings were already pretty proportional... Ur drawings from imagination were of course not gonna be the best but that is natural because you haven’t built a good and wide mental library yet so for u to focus more on referencing from life and even just stylized art(from professionals)was a really great choice because you constantly gain new knowledge which will eventually be second nature. That’s why professionals who have been drawing for years or even decades can drawing amazing artworks from no reference because of their immensely wide and grand mental library that they have polished for years. ur growth in 30 days was by no means realistic to most😂srry for the long comment lol not really gud at shortening text
@@jakeonart soz for the necro post 💀but are you still drawing? but seriously this man is completely correct. I started about 3 years ago (seriously) as well but did have a head start since i always liked drawing. had a similar approach to you but your mental library was already way better than mine when I started (i was in year 7 so... yea.) Im really suprised how much you actually practised anatomy and wasn't just immediately jumping into full art pieces. the geometry in most of your drwaings are good but noticeably off, thats probably the hardest thing for most beginners to learn. Even now im still struggling with drawing fairly realistic torsos + arms cause they are so damn complicated (with no reference) and this really encouraged me :)
I think what’s very important in the beginning, is that if you don’t know how exactly to draw stuff, use references. Always. Until you get a feeling of what your drawing. Especially when it comes to things like anatomy I think it’s very hard to do and almost impossible to get right completely from the mind when you don’t really know how it works yet.
to be fully honest. ive been drawing for five years and a lot of what you've done impressed me. if you choose to pursue art im sure you'll do great. its incredibly inspiring to see someone starting out and just giving it their all. Keep it up man!
your final drawings, particularly the tree and soap look incredible! a big game changer for me was using mechanical pencils and fine liners to define shapes more than just pencils can and the pens really elevated your art (i am going to steal those references! finding good ones is half the battle lmao) your videos are very determined and motivated which i’ve lost a bit, so thank you very much! it’s super helpful, and good luck with your art
this was genuinely a nice video. hearing your authentic process makes me interested in what you have to say-over other youtubers that more commonly just try to make themselves entertaining. you have humility too and that’s a trait i admire
Honestly, the art shown in the beginning at around 0:24 was very charming and captured a childhood wonder sort of feel. On paper that sounds bad, but I really think that has a sort of quirk to it.
Loved the video, I have been doing art seriously for over a year now. I am happy with a lot of my work, but I still see how much I have to improve. Please keep doing art on youtube, we need more artists on the platform
Dude this is awesome! this is how i started out as well. keep this going man, you'll get very far ahead with daily deliberate practice :) also, here's some things that helped me 1. Take up a 100 day challenge where you focus on one miniskill (ex- drawing faces) 2. focus on drawing/improving on that mini skill for 6mins or more per day. (6mins is just to make sure you show up) 3. make 100 drawings in those 100 days. some good, some bad. repeat this cycle multiple time, change mini skill each cycle and you my friend will be doin FINNEE
Your lines and shading are great! I guess you take your time with every drawing but for someone practicing for only one month, your drawings look genuinely amazing. I kinda don't believe you have never practiced drawing before.
@@jakeonart That explains a lot, but you still managed to improve a lot in a short timeframe. I'm kinda considering to try to be more consistent with my drawing sessions as to improve my skills. Great video!
great take on building up a skill set.I use to think if you can't draw in the beginning, you never will be able to develop the necessary skills to put together a masterpiece. Draw for fun and purpose and everything else will blossom from there!
As an artist my self, something that artists are supposed to be doing is to observe before putting on what the heck we have in heads. That's why he got good so quickly, normally or at least the case for me is taking the more spontaneous route do what we want resulting in a lot of trial & error.
@@1commonplace519 Something I do struggle with kinda out of rushing like I said before but one of the principals of art is shape. You kinda break it down in your head then on purpose, first in big shapes like say you're trying to draw a chair you would do back as rectangle or something.
@@1commonplace519Angles, more specifically making sure the angle of the line(or brushstroke) matches up with the reference. Angles can also be used to get proportions right (triangulation). Besides that value and color temperature if you want to paint the subject. Color is relative so you should always compare it with the colors around it. Use angle observations to draw the 2-d shapes in the reference then fill them in with correct values.
I study a lot of math some call me genius without seeing the hours i work daily. I like to paint and draw and sculpt and play music and sing and so many art forms. One thing common in art and maths is that you will have to suffer, there is no running you will have to fight that urge to stand up and go away but when you will start creating your original ideas you will notice that suffring more is making you happy more. That is what is called hard work and The more you suffer while doing work the more you are bound to be better. And the more you will create from your imagination the more you will become happy. And believe me i know this from experience cuz i wasted an entire year learning this thing and not getting better.
i'm a person who also decided i wanted to learn how to draw. I have now been doing this for about an hour, almost every day for 4 years and only recently have I considered dabbling in doing anything creative. I'm no artist so expressing myself is completely foreign to me, I have just been grinding fundamentals forever. we all seem to take different paths to this ever-reaching eternal horizon and it's fascinating to see other people sharing their journey like this. keep grinding :)
Art is a skill that takes practice, nobody is born one day and can draw like a pro - it's important to remember to enjoy drawing everything that you want, no matter if it's gonna turn out good or not. Most things just wont, but at least it was fun and if you keep it up one day you're gonna get better, great video!
well, drawing everyday isn't gonna make people improve. but in this video, the great thing is, he realizes what's wrong with his drawing and is willing to go back to basics to learn. This is what makes him improve. Keep drawing, analyze what you are lacking, and study. even people who draw for years have problems to realise their mistakes and try to find a way to fix them. Totally inspiring videos for people who are new and veteran in drawings.👍👍👍
Hey Jake, this a friendly reminder to keep going, don't stop, you can do this. I've spent little to no time on drawing every year, and I wished I would have spent more time on it honestly. Even drawing 10 minutes every other day for 20 years, you would surprise yourself how much you can draw. Imagine how much you could do if you spent more time each day? Question: How much time did you spend drawing each day, give or take?
As an artist i love watching these sorts of videos ;w;; and when you mentioned bLUE PERIOD oh my goodness my heart :'))) I read it at the end of my senior year and it's what got me to get into art seriously and transfer to an art school also LOVELY PROGRESS it's super cool that you tried to tackle different subjects and challenges
I've been drawing for a while now, but just two days ago I decided to use this summer to study anatomy (I have never done that before. I was afraid of it for a long while because it seemed like such a big, impossible task and I was afraid of failing). I made a plan, split the big task into smaller bits (like for example I decided I'll look at the body parts individually at first, and then try to put it together as a whole). Today I started practicing, and while I have produced an ungodly amount of terrible drawings, I AM getting better at it and I already learned so much!!! So yeah, if anyone reading this was waiting for some kind of sign to start drawing or to start learning about anatomy or perspective or anything else really - THIS IS IT!!! :) Also: very inspiring video, you're doing great! I'd love to see more of your progress!
Wow! I started drawing a lot at the age of eight, and this is exactly how I began! I would attempt to draw from imagination, but what really upped my skill was when I used references. Of course, at that young of an age I did more than reference, I straight up copied, but that even helped me develop my skills in it'sown way. Now, I draw many things from imagination, though I still use references when I need them. This video was so cool, your determination and ambition reminds me of myself when I started out. Keep up the work! For a beginner, the art you're making is very impressive!
You're a beginner, yet are way braver than me when it comes to drawing things you're not familiar with yet. That in and of itself is an important skill. The periods in my 9 year drawing "career" that I've improved the most was when I consistently drew things I was too nervous to draw. Yet even now I hesitate to do so. Also, those Luffy drawings are really nice, I honestly wasn't expecting it to look that good.
Hi! Really nice video, this is something that all of us go threw at some point in art, which is really HARD. But at the same time, really regarding. I would recommend you watch marc brunet and his 30 days challenge. Other good one for seeing how to study other is tppo, quite advanced right now but really good for learning how to learn (it sounds weird, but is really useful)
I mean, I’ve been drawing consistently since kindergarten, and as expected I tend to be more “”experienced”” than most. When some ask me how to get “”good”” at art, I simply tell them that I enjoyed doing it, and drew because it was fun! I didn’t overthink my art, and that’s why I improved it considerably over the years.
You can do it!!! Don’t get frustrated. Everything takes a little time!:) and that’s okay. It’s 100% okay! You can do it and you will do it. Never give up.
I think that it is absolutely hilarious that you said you were into animation at the time, when it was literally 30 days ago. You make it sound like it was years ago
Trying to get back into school and worrying about getting my portfolio up to date made my adobe and other task feel like an absolute chore. This week I stopped all of that and just started to draw focus on the basics and just have some fun and it has been an absolute blast.
Hey man i needed this video I plan on really getting serious into my art don’t force yourself to post videos but I’ll be here when you do post some more
I think you are doing really great! For still life and real life things I would focus more on getting the values right (going without colour) A common mistake that I still do sometimes is that for real life you dont need to define everything, the brain creates detail when theres only cues about it to be found. Also create an art account so we can see the progress! And if you are not feeling like drawing one day a great exerciae is to just draw paralell lines as close to each other as possible to get hand dexterity down
you're probably not gonna see this but as someone who's been drawing all their life, i have a few tips for you if you wanna improve fast 1: forget about the hour of drawing every day, you're gonna get burnt out real fast. 2: use darker shading. a lot of your drawings look kind of flat, even though you got the perspective mostly right. thats because you use very light shading. try drawing completely without using a pencil. just straight up pen on paper. use hatching and crosshatching for shading, or try cell shading with a black pen. this will boost your confidence in your lines like crazy by forcing you to figure it out on the spot rather than drawing and erasing over and over again untill you get it right 3: practice simple shapes in 3d space. for example cars usually consist of 2 boxes and a couple cylinders. it's great practice and it's pretty fun to draw once you get the hang of it
No way, I’ve also started to take up drawing and Luffy was the one I’d draw the most of but it seems you’re doing alot better by drawing him different at different angles and scenarios
You can’t tell me you were instantly able to draw all this anime stuff!!! If you’re for real then that’s insane😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️ never seen anybody be able to do that after two weeks 🤨🤨🤨🤨🔴🔴🔴Bro…
Often;learning to draw well takes time; sometimes years. It’s also detrimental to learn to draw things incorrectly; or practice drawing bad habits.Keep drawing, and keep the attitude that you can always learn something new.
your first drawings are endearing. funnily enough, a lot of times, when we start practicing and learning art, we become too focused on the fundamentals and realism and the technical stuff that we forget why we draw, and start doing these generic stuff that only have the aesthetic appeal to it. and because of all these things, it actually becomes hard to draw "badly" on purpose. picasso once said "it took me 4 years to paint like raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child"
btw, people focus on perspective not (only) because they want you to draw good scenarios, but because it helps us to think in 3D, so don't get too frustrated if idk some floorplan isn't 100% accurate. i'm saying this because it took me some time to finally click why i should be good at understanding what the fuck is a point perspective and horizon line. (the result is that now i'm weirdly good at drawing houses and landscapes but awful at drawing people which is my focus lol)
i did the same thing a while ago. Did it for like 250 days. I was doing more for making myself more consistent in my life any extra art skill I get would be a bonus. But yea it takes so much to get good.
I have seen many people start art and trying to get better. 95% would take years to get that good at even copying those avatar frames even while going to private art classes each week. I would not say talent is everything, but damn is it easy if you have it…
if you’re beginning to do figure drawing, it’s best to begin with nude models as the clothing can make the shapes of the body ambiguous. Personally i use quickposes or line of action as sites that compile the poses to practice and make the process repeatable and simple.
Alright this is it. I'm inspired. This is my 3AM burst of motivation, but I'm going to hold onto this excitement for the pursuit of art and start tomorrow while ideas bubble in my mind. This is really it. I'm finally going to try. Whether I end up reaching my goal or not, I'm going to draw every day and draw to improve and have fun. Yes... I will finally.. FINALLY pursue my goal of turning anything I see into -an attractive anime waifu- err to personify anything I see to flex my creative thinking capabilities and expanding my overall knowledge of basic fashion, character design, hairstyles, etc. Um, realistically, I guess just being good enough to comfortably draw concept art for characters (or anything really) I think up is also a goal of mine. Yeah. I'm a very self-critical person and I feel unbearable amounts of embarrassment when I am unable to draw the amazing ideas I think up. It's so bad that I most times can't even get past the initial circle for the head. Not to mention I am actually filled with so much anxiety of someone witnessing my vomit-worthy scribbles that if someone's in the same room (or on the same floor) I can't even _start_ drawing. I don't know, I'll try to just.. _start_ and be patient with myself. Throw away the critical side and have fun, chase what I desire in my drawings without negatively putting myself down at my inability to replicate my mind's vision. Once I'm past the initial start and reach a comfortable stage where I've a bit more confidence in my art skills, then I can start being critical. We'll see. I may never touch a sketchbook after this, or I may grow to be a wonderful artist. I hope I am able to progress and at least _somewhat_ reach my goals.
This video helped me realize that i should be more diverse with the things I do and practice. I forgot how fearless i was when i was new to art and that caused me to do the same practice routine for a while and never moving on to cooler stuff. Keep it up man cuz you’re doing really well and i wish you the best of luck on your art journey!!! (also blue period is awesome I agreeeee)
blue period is sooooo goood
jesus you draw better than me and i draw for 2 years, i gonna cry
maybe your just lost
try researching in more and just do it more
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah research on gesture then basic anatomy… I would recommend Proko. He has a playlist for this from start to finish
I think it depends on how old you are like when I was a teenager I drew really bad and then I stopped drawing and then I picked it up years later when I was older and I got way better way faster usually teenagers don't have very good motor skills so it takes them longer to get good compared to adults
@@williammclean6594 This happened to me as well. The downside of being an adult artist is that people tend to hate their art because they are not good enough. I'm not drawing as much as I used to
Trust me this isn’t an easy hobby at all. Today I was wondering, genuinely, why this couldn’t be easier

As an artist who has been drawing pretty seriously for 3 years I have to say,your observation skills ARE TOP NOTCH probably as good as me who has developed my observation for YEARS..when I saw those drawings yes I saw imperfections but my god u captured it really nicely and ur figure drawings were already pretty proportional... Ur drawings from imagination were of course not gonna be the best but that is natural because you haven’t built a good and wide mental library yet so for u to focus more on referencing from life and even just stylized art(from professionals)was a really great choice because you constantly gain new knowledge which will eventually be second nature. That’s why professionals who have been drawing for years or even decades can drawing amazing artworks from no reference because of their immensely wide and grand mental library that they have polished for years. ur growth in 30 days was by no means realistic to most😂srry for the long comment lol not really gud at shortening text

Gonna be posting a lot of different stuff here about art - some TV/film stuff, but I'm definitely open to more art/drawing videos
your linework has a certain charm to it ngl
I’ve been doing the same thing. You’re killing it man.🔥👌🏾
I plan to draw every day for the next 140 days. Mainly focusing on drawing nature and landscapes which include buildings and other constructions
That's awesome - I should learn that kinda stuff too!
I think you are doing really great! For still life and real life things I would focus more on getting the values right (going without colour)
A common mistake that I still do sometimes is that for real life you dont need to define everything, the brain creates detail when theres only cues about it to be found.
Also create an art account so we can see the progress!
And if you are not feeling like drawing one day a great exerciae is to just draw paralell lines as close to each other as possible to get hand dexterity down
Gotcha - i appreciate the advice!!
Great Video! You should have more subs
This was very inspiring, thank you!
Dude you're damn good even starting out
5:16 be careful Rainbolt is gonna find you with that kind of information
Holy shit you are made for drawing my guy. Keep up the good work
Thank :)
you're probably not gonna see this but as someone who's been drawing all their life, i have a few tips for you if you wanna improve fast
1: forget about the hour of drawing every day, you're gonna get burnt out real fast.
2: use darker shading. a lot of your drawings look kind of flat, even though you got the perspective mostly right. thats because you use very light shading. try drawing completely without using a pencil. just straight up pen on paper. use hatching and crosshatching for shading, or try cell shading with a black pen. this will boost your confidence in your lines like crazy by forcing you to figure it out on the spot rather than drawing and erasing over and over again untill you get it right
3: practice simple shapes in 3d space. for example cars usually consist of 2 boxes and a couple cylinders. it's great practice and it's pretty fun to draw once you get the hang of it
This is great advice - I've been working on the shading and some pen sketches recently!!
The way he started speaking at 7:02 Reminds me of someone like Barry Golberg from the Golbergs or someone else (remind me who with at reply please)
this helped me because u told me that i need to be patient for my skills and doesnt over work thanks
If you don’t mind me asking what camera did you use to film yourself it looks really good?
I have a canon rebel t6i with their cheapest 10-18mm wide angle lens (with two LED lights). It's a relatively affordable starter setup!
Dude fking great!!!!! Art is art
You got some serious natural talent
No way, I’ve also started to take up drawing and Luffy was the one I’d draw the most of but it seems you’re doing alot better by drawing him different at different angles and scenarios
Yeah i tried choosing more dynamic shots from fight scenes
Your channel is so professional
Wtf, how are your drawings this good. Imna just burn my sketchbook now
Keep practicing and have fun - try not to compare yourself to others!! (much easier said than done)
Thanks for the advice. It’s nice to know that you tuber artists read comments ❤️
I knew as soon as i saw this man got recommended to read blue period i knew something great is about to unleash in this mans potential
Seriously. That shit got me fired up. ITS SO GOOD
Boys we found our new art yt channel🗿🍷
how do you not have more subscribers your great!
Thank you!! I'm just starting out so maybe it'll come with some consistency!
dude, you've inspired me to challenge myself for 30 days challenge, ty!!
LETS GOOOO
im ur 971st sub :)
I appreciate you
Yesterday I decided to get into art (finally) and this video was recommended to me, thanks for making it!
Nice!! What kind of art are you into??
@@jakeonart I will try my best to learn digital art, I've had a tablet for quite a while now but never really got to using it until now 😅
@@Cloudiee I just started trying to do digital art - it's so hard to get used to the tablet after drawing with a pen/pencil for so long!
@@jakeonart It surely will take time to get used to it but I hope the process is gonna be smooth and enjoyable for you ☺
@@Cloudiee Wouldn't exactly call the process smooth haha - but i am enjoying it!!
"If I draw Luffy, I'll learn anatomy!"
.....of all the characters in every.... sure, okay. 😅
yeah hahah - literal prime example of a character who never stays true to real anatomy
@@jakeonart A good choice for learning stylization tho!
You can’t tell me you were instantly able to draw all this anime stuff!!! If you’re for real then that’s insane😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️ never seen anybody be able to do that after two weeks 🤨🤨🤨🤨🔴🔴🔴Bro…
Often;learning to draw well takes time; sometimes years. It’s also detrimental to learn to draw things incorrectly; or practice drawing bad habits.Keep drawing, and keep the attitude that you can always learn something new.
You only have 5 videos and more subs then me, what a masterpiece
your first drawings are endearing. funnily enough, a lot of times, when we start practicing and learning art, we become too focused on the fundamentals and realism and the technical stuff that we forget why we draw, and start doing these generic stuff that only have the aesthetic appeal to it. and because of all these things, it actually becomes hard to draw "badly" on purpose.
picasso once said "it took me 4 years to paint like raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child"
btw, people focus on perspective not (only) because they want you to draw good scenarios, but because it helps us to think in 3D, so don't get too frustrated if idk some floorplan isn't 100% accurate. i'm saying this because it took me some time to finally click why i should be good at understanding what the fuck is a point perspective and horizon line. (the result is that now i'm weirdly good at drawing houses and landscapes but awful at drawing people which is my focus lol)
@@anti_acido This is excellent advice thank you sir
this video might have single-handedly reignited my passion for drawing
that makes me so freakin happy GO FOR IT!!!!
your drawing is great...here is a sub....
We Will Watch Your Career With Great Interest😂😂✨✨✨✨
i did the same thing a while ago. Did it for like 250 days. I was doing more for making myself more consistent in my life any extra art skill I get would be a bonus. But yea it takes so much to get good.
I have seen many people start art and trying to get better. 95% would take years to get that good at even copying those avatar frames even while going to private art classes each week.
I would not say talent is everything, but damn is it easy if you have it…
Thank you!! I drew a lot as a kid and was exposed to a lot of art so I think i have a good background for it!
Keep it up 💪
This man can draw better in 30 days than my 11 years
idk about that - just watched some of your shorts, you've got great color skills!!
This video made me excited about drawing again
That's awesome hell yeah that makes me happy
if you’re beginning to do figure drawing, it’s best to begin with nude models as the clothing can make the shapes of the body ambiguous. Personally i use quickposes or line of action as sites that compile the poses to practice and make the process repeatable and simple.
Great to know thank you very much
Your day 1 was my favorite, very adventure time
absolutely adore adventure time
You drew luffy better for the first time than me for ever
Just keep practicing from reference and draw proper guidelines and i'm sure you'll be making some great luffy art in no time!
Amazing 😲
This is really inspiring
Alright this is it. I'm inspired. This is my 3AM burst of motivation, but I'm going to hold onto this excitement for the pursuit of art and start tomorrow while ideas bubble in my mind. This is really it. I'm finally going to try. Whether I end up reaching my goal or not, I'm going to draw every day and draw to improve and have fun. Yes... I will finally.. FINALLY
pursue my goal of turning anything I see into -an attractive anime waifu- err to personify anything I see to flex my creative thinking capabilities and expanding my overall knowledge of basic fashion, character design, hairstyles, etc.
Um, realistically, I guess just being good enough to comfortably draw concept art for characters (or anything really) I think up is also a goal of mine. Yeah. I'm a very self-critical person and I feel unbearable amounts of embarrassment when I am unable to draw the amazing ideas I think up. It's so bad that I most times can't even get past the initial circle for the head. Not to mention I am actually filled with so much anxiety of someone witnessing my vomit-worthy scribbles that if someone's in the same room (or on the same floor) I can't even _start_ drawing. I don't know, I'll try to just.. _start_ and be patient with myself. Throw away the critical side and have fun, chase what I desire in my drawings without negatively putting myself down at my inability to replicate my mind's vision. Once I'm past the initial start and reach a comfortable stage where I've a bit more confidence in my art skills, then I can start being critical. We'll see. I may never touch a sketchbook after this, or I may grow to be a wonderful artist. I hope I am able to progress and at least _somewhat_ reach my goals.
Finally someone who knows what blue period is because I asked so much people if they know the anime and all of them said no
blue period is sooooo good!!!! I can't believe more people don't know about it
Ikr I love it
