Thanks for the lesson Tayler! If you want to take your digital painting even further check out this lesson on how to make your digital paintings look traditional - th-cam.com/video/0Dbf63YnkeA/w-d-xo.html
what are some best practices for project proposals and applying for artist residencies? I have found myself in a never ending cycle of proposing and applying tirelessly with very little success. Any tips to be more effective in these areas would be of tremendous help
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS AS A TRADITION ARTIST THEN GETTING USE TO DIGITAL THIS IS VERY HELPFUL HOPE THERE IS MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS
I think of some random dumb, funny things. The next time someone says to me that draw the line there, meteorically, I want to literally draw them a line and hopefully laughter, the best medicine, comes into play.
Woaaahhh, Tayler!! Was not expecting to see you here, that's awesome! Congrats!
Yes!
woahh sinix! was not expecting to see you here
@@turtle3341 Woahhhh, Turtle3, wasn't expecting to see you here, thats awesome!
@@CFlandre Woahhh, Ralphanese!! wasn't expecting to see you here, that's awesome!
@@chilledonii7682 Woaaahhh, ChilledOnii!! Was not expecting to see you here, that's awesome!
Thanks for having me on guys! Shout out to Proko and his team for making this a fun experience. :)
I just met you today and I'm already getting an Idea of how I'm gonna learn digital landscapes painting on procreate after studying figures.
Thank you so much for the video this inspired me more!🥰
Your demonstration is a lot easier to understand than tons of digital painting process videos out there, and a lot of important keys to accelerate the speed and manipulating the atmosphere are mentioned too. Thank you and Proko for this awesome video!
From one Taylor to another, thanks!
So cool dude! I knew you were going places when I met you in college haha!
Could we by any chance get the brushes you use for this video?
It's scary and fascinating how a 20-minute video reallt felt like a few years to me with how much information is concised and delivered. Thanks so much Tayler!

"Big Brain Setup"
Ah, the one true way
I think of some random dumb, funny things. The next time someone says to me that draw the line there, meteorically, I want to literally draw them a line and hopefully laughter, the best medicine, comes into play.
I am a digital artist with years of experience and I still found this video interesting and useful. Great presenter and very cool format.
probably a shitty digital artist then
@@user-vt6td9hp3g So you mean that people who have been painting for years can't find something interesting and useful in a video and be good at the same time? If you're thinking when you get "good" you don't need to learn anything anymore you're wrong. The artists who are at a very high skill level never stop learning and pushing the boundaries. Get a grip
Varun Singh I am already good and anyone who is good doesn’t need to learn this basic shit
@@user-vt6td9hp3g If you don't think you need to learn anymore about the fundamentals then you'll only ever be good, never great.
@@user-vt6td9hp3g You sound like a fool.
If you're cramped for screen space Krita has some great options for managing the U.I. such as a canvas only mode and pop-up palette among other options.
@vamsee sundru :D ikr!
thank you for the information. i am new to krita so that's gonna help me out a lot
Oh wow i was just trying to learn how to paint digitally then this showed up on my notifications. Thank you
Me too lol
Haha mee too 😂
Same here! Don't tell the sponsor but i got a huion...
Thats cause google is spying on everyone
You tube recommendations are getting good
I like the way Tayler explained everything, not only he made it simple and very easy to understand for a beginner like me, but his tone is also very soothing, it's so nice to hear!
I find those very short specific tutorials very useful, especially when flooded with work I can still add some learning without using too much time. thanks!
YES I literally just started fiddling with this stuff this week. Perfect timing.
Wow, I'm still learning digital painting and this is incredible.
I've been meaning to learn digital painting for a long-time, and I found this gem. Thank you so much ! Can you please upload more videos on this ?
this is so amazing! I've been using Photoshop for years, but not professionally, self taught kinda, and this video showed a new world for me
Sophisticated artwork! I think your work is very special and wonderful. thank you for sharing. I respect you who have learned a lot from your work.
the Albert Bierstadt picture is often my desktop too. the lighting is amazing.
this was so helpful, thank you for the video!! loved how you explained your thought process and technical decisions so throughly
Extremely fun video that held my attention for the full run time. Never saw somebody use so many selections while painting.
Lots of little "aha"-moments for me in this vid, both technically and artistically. Thanks!
This is interesting from the very first minutes, and all the way through - wonderful! Thank you!
I have no idea why, but the music and his voice made me so calm I almost teared up
Respect for the Bierstadt desktop background
Amazing technology - and the artist who knows how to use it! Just astounding how far we've come from a couple of guys in a 1976 garage - to this!
Nice, I was just thinking "you know what I should watch a video about painting basics". So I typed it in the TH-cam searchbar and then I see that you just uploaded a video exactly about that 20 mins ago!
Thanks Tayler. A very very helpful introduction into your way of working
This is the perfect video I have found for a beginner. Please also make a step by step tutorial (not a speed art) of any illustration or painting I just want to grab the complete workflow in adobe illustration or adobe photoshop. Thanks
This is like what I'm currently studying and wanted thank you
Oh my god, this is so good! Watching the process is calming and inspiring. And Taylor Olivas has amazing insight. It is so simple when you look at it. It's just a matter of practice isn't it? :D
This video is soooo amazing!!! Please make another one.
Very very nice tutorial! I like his design process a lot and he explained it clearly.
Oh yeaaaaaah! Finally stepping into digital art!
Wow. This was wild. Even though I saw it from start to finish, it still seemed just like magic as he got to the end.
please more episodes with him! He's great!
I love these kind of 20 minute videos!
This is actually the first tutorial I saw, which really let me fall in love with digital art
oh
I found I was already doing a lot of this stuff, but that I also really needed someone to give me permission to do the rest. Thanks.
Thank you very much Tayler, very informative and inspirational for people like me beginners
This was a great breakdown of your process. One thing that always surprises me when I watch things like this is that you will make some choices and I'll say "oh, I don't like that", but then 2 or 3 steps later it makes total sense and I can't imagine the painting without it. If I had done that first step I would have backed up and ended up shutting off that whole path. I guess that's just confidence that comes from experience. I do wonder if you had that whole plan in mind from the beginning or if you are just trying things and adapting as you go.
thanks a lot proko. Was just looking for something like this.
What does Great art I ever saw in my life thanks proko you are the best
Whew, in here early. Thanks for the videos, Proko and Taylor.

This video is need of the hour popped up when i needed the most, totally loved Tayler way of making digital painting. Next time I will also use selection tool for painting.
Hope to see more of stuff from Tayler Olivas.
amazing technique.. i'm a beginner digital painter, i wish i could paint like you.. i was very inspired.. thanks..
Great video from a wonderful channel.
Art books have provided me a much-needed escape from real life. When life was difficult I'd set up my easy chair with coffee, a desk lamp and a stack of art books beside me. They kept me going during the hardest times. My art books are the best investments I ever made.
My 4 favorite books are:
- Wonderworks by Michael Whelan
- Legacy by Frank Frazetta
- Infinite Worlds by Vincent DiFate
- Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson
These books sound nice! I might go have a look at them.
I literally just got me a table recently for my birthday, this is such a 0erfect coincidence
This is so relaxing to watch
wow! im still in learning process how to make a digital painting.. thanks for sharing! 😊

I'm want to start digital painting but I'm not sure whether to start with the intuos paper edition or wacom one. This video is skewing my decision massively.
Nice instructions man
Dude! I've been using Photoshop for years and I NEVER knew about that auto select layer option!! That's going to save me time and aggravation. Lol.
thank you so much
Essentials = Stuff we're never going to use. Got it 👍
I'm an alumni of LCAD!! Are you teaching this semester and next semester as well? I can take one class every semester for free and I'm interested in taking a digital painting class next semester. Will you be teaching a different subject or digital painting?
