First off, you are already an artist. The job of art school is to help you develop your talent and not make you a clone of someone else. One of the biggest benefits of you going to art school will be that you will have more models to paint from, and the more diverse your models are, the more you will learn. Hang it in there, it is going to be great.
i was showing everyone at work (we are a group of designers for things like wallpaper and notebooks etc) your art and they were so impressed about how well you paint and how you come up with such amazing concepts! artists who have 40 years of experience were talking about how incredible your talent is! 😊
every camila video makes me want to get out of my bed and finish the two unfinished paintings i have in my room. thank you for being such an inspiration to me and many others :)
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT YOUR EYES? Your eyes are so beautiful, literally and figuratively. They are the reason your self portraits POP and give you your own signature look.
i am in awe that this is how incredible your art looks without even spending a day in art school, i cant wait to see how much further you can take your abilities once you graduate
We're really excited to see your work develop as you soak up every challenge headed your way! Art school is such a great opportunity to expose yourself to materials, methods, and processes that you would never be able to try otherwise. You'll get to draw from live models all the time (something you'll miss a lot after you graduate), and you'll be making connections with lifelong friends who will also be colleagues and professional peers. Try to get the most from every critique, not because those opinions will necessarily change your work, but because they will train you how to think critically. Can't wait to see this chapter unfold!
I'm back in art college after 25 years. I'm three classes from graduating; it shouldn't have taken 25 years to finish, but here I am. I hope you enjoy and grow at art college!
I started college in my late 30s so I feel this. But I am glad I took the journey, we gained perspective we wouldn’t have had if we didn’t have to go the long way.
If you get busy in college, you could always do portfolio review videos at the end of every semester. You could also do Timelapse’s I think pretty easily as well for shorts
Okay so as an artists who is now almost 30 I just want you to know that there are a lot of artists who grow frustrated with art school where it drains the fun out of painting for them, because they don't like the rigidity of it or are too occupied with pleasing the teachers. If you ever feel like that's happening to you, don't be afraid to quit that art program. The connections you make to other artists are worth gold but the actual art degree is literally worthless. What you have managed to create here and on other platforms is something that some artists struggle to get for their entire lives. You are already miles ahead with the online following that you have so don't neglect it. But most importantly remember to have fun at college!
I just wanna say Ever since you popped up in my FEED through a yt short of you finishing a piece You motivate me to try and finish my folio board at school this year, even though im still in the progress 😭 Additionally, in a way you helped me to discover some techniques on painting and allow me to get my motivation back for drawing So tqsm Camila and good luck for art school ❤
I love orange too, I also love blue, makes it even better that they’re complimentary colors. I think this is one of my personal favorites of yours. It’s looks so great as a painting, it would look great on a t shirt, it would look great as an album cover, like I seriously love it! Congrats on art school!
You enjoying this so much is so amazing to see! I’m currently in my senior year of art school and it has been such an amazing experience. It’s really inspiring to be around people that are very good at what they do and I have done so many things that I never would’ve been able to do if I didn’t go! Congrats on getting into risd and I hope you have an amazing time!
U actually help me so muchhh with getting to painting again. I sorta got into a depression but when i started watching you, just… the jealousy!!! Ooooouuuhhh my god. Im 2 and a half years from eighteen and ur art is just magnificent im totally taken away by how good you are at such a young age and its driving and motivating me to start painting and practicing to getting the talent and skills that you got. Your so fkn great i hope you get famous asf
So amazed by your skills and ongoing growth. You are a true artist that has already achieved what may artists who have worked years are still longing for. I hope you have a blast in college growing and learning more but always realized (like you did in this painting) that what really matters is are you enjoying the process. When art become a burden it’s the Catullus for burn out. You are blessed beyond your years and have a bright future. I look forward to seeing all the amazing thing you do and become. You are an inspiration!
Absolutely one my fav things you've painted! You can tell you had fun doing it :) Good luck with uni, it'll be great fun and you'll learn a lot about yourself and your art!!
I really like how you paint yourself, plus the art is so good. Maybe when you're done with college you can try painting this specific piece once again to see how your art evolved with technique and learning!
i aspire to be like you. your art is one of a kind and gives me chills you're seriously impressive and such a kind soul one can only look up to you. hope ur having a great day camila u deserve all of your success
I feel the exact same way with my recent paintings. Like I’ve only ever painted for school for the past few years. but for some reason this summer before my third year of art school I’ve finally started painting for myself again and it’s been so fun 😭
i looooove this one!!! the little orange lines that happen when blinding light meets a surface (absolutely no clue what the technical term is for that) is one of my fave things to see in art. it was so fun to see /you/ have fun with combining realism and funky colour combos! good luck in college. :)
I went to SAIC and learned so much in the first year. I’m not self taught, i went to an arts magnet high school, but you’re def a full fledge artist. Your work ethic and ideas are incredible. AND you’re going to RISD?? The Ivy League of art universities. You’re going to be one of the greats of our time, i can see it. So excited for you!
Great painting!!! So glad you also had so much fun painting this!!! Sooo excited to see what videos you’ll do at RISD! That’s my dream school, so I’m excited to see your experience there !
Hey I’m going to RISD this year too! But for MFA in Graphic Design hehe. I just moved to Providence and it’s beautiful here. Hope you have a good time as well!!
Fantastic paining, I love it. I took airbrush classes at RISD forever ago, and let me tell you, your incredible talent level and refreshing creativity IS RISD. Best of luck!!
Hello, Camila! I wanted to say that you truly are an inspiration to me, I love seeing your art and it also me inspires me to continue drawing too when I feel like I can't. Also congrats on getting into the college, I'm very happy for you! 🥰
Best of luck in college! I used to paint my insecurities too. Decided not everyone notices what I notice. It’s just you and it’s all perfect! But you can just put some retinol serum for a few weeks on that milia and it will go away.
Congratulations on your new journey. Yes please keep us updated on your painting, ups and downs and all other college life stuff. Never lose the way that you do things just improve yourself to do better happy painting.❤😊
I saw this first on Twitter and man, you really did capture that intense, blinding heat - it's the first thing I felt when I saw it! Seems fitting, since you'll be moving from hell-weather Texas to Rhode Island lol
Your art is incredible and I had so much fun watching the process behind the choices you made for the painting! I also really love how all the characters in your paintings are yourself! I’m also an artist myself (who haven’t painted for like a year and a half because I joined the military, but still) and my favorite topic is also self portraits :)) good luck in RISD this is the exact place to grow you as an artist! Can’t wait to see all your new art to come🤞
Can we have a moving blog and also I am so excited to see how ur art will develop and how ur style will develop I hope u have a wonderful experience in college, I can't wait to tune in!!!!!!!
Girl, whatever you do at school, film that. You don't have to do anything extra for the channel, just take us on the ride, unless if you don't want to. But we're addorable, how could you not let us crawl into your backpack and come along for the ride 🥺
Hi Camilla ... I just discovered your artwork and videos. Your work is amazing and this has been so entertaining to watch. .. you are super talented ... I think that you will love art college.. it will expand your boundaries .. challenge you at times ... but will develop you in so many ways also. The very Best of Luck with it all.
yes please a move-in vlog! I'm moving in with my two closest friends next year for university and I need mental preparation in the form of seeing others do it first lol
Best of luck cami, i know i don't know u, but I'm really proud to see u going with ur life to a new chapter. Hope this chapter comes with tones of realizations and fun!
I love the painting it is so you and it kinda reminds me of dr. Seuss style.❤❤❤ And personally, I would love to see the college move-in or something. I hope you have a great time at college. Good luck.❤❤❤
this piece looks amazing!! i hope u learn lots from school but still have fun doing your own thing too you should def vlog your experience there (but only as much as youre comfortable with!) gl with school :D
We would love to still see you on the channel in college if at all possible. Even shorter check ins about your latest art assignments. 😊 We care about you and are excited for your college adventure! But still totally understand if it’s too much.
I’m so proud of you! The painting is awesome and definitely a bit different but I love it. You under estimate yourself a lot so hopefully going to art school will help you build your confidence :) I’m in senior year of highschool and hoping to make it as a artist as well so your very inspiring to me!
I can't wait to comment in the future: "2023 camileon was peak, the good ole days. She was so much better when she was self-taught. RIP"
