Is it just me or do you guys also feel a bit excited when Rin is approaching the end of a sketchbook? It could mean a sketchbook tour in a not-so-distant future 👀
@@Erin-js9dtdue to health issues she’s been MIA. we haven’t gotten content in a while because she is thankfully focusing on her health and physically cannot make videos anymore. i think this comment was made before her first update in a year that she was alive and well via community tabs.
Rin's videos are magical. Lemme explain: Everything is family friendly, so I can play it anywhere. Even my mum likes them! I get so inspired to draw along with them. Even older videos are great to replay while sketching. They're really soothing to watch when I'm anxious, and it even helps me sleep. I absolutely adore Rin's personality and art style, and I look forward to her posting 💕💖💝💞💘💓💗
Honestly I’m not sad that she hasn’t been uploading, I just wanna know if she’s okay. I hope she’s doing well and that she’s still drawing. Maybe she’ll see my comment and feel a little bit better knowing that there people out there that genuinely care for her.
I came back to your channel after a year or so of not watching ; and I'm so glad to be back, it's so refreshing. You're so positive and kind and fun to draw with. {Side note : I'm drawing a page of close-up details as well as a full-body drawing of one of my characters}
Just here to say that in this period I’ve had issue with my body as well and your videos and art have made me smile a bit more day by day. I’m sorry that your health has not been good lately and I seriously wish you the best, you have a beautiful soul, Rin.
Please could you draw a person representing a fun,sociable girl because huh my birthday is coming on Sunday. My name is keziah, I am in Ghana but not trash .I am 9-10 years and I love drawing. Thank you
i'm struggling really bad with anxiety and depression these past few months and going to art school is really hard for me lately, but watching your videos and seeing you brainstorming and creating something helps me to relax at least for a few minutes. thank you for being here 💜 p.s.: rin be my bestie and drawing buddy im begging you HSJSSJJS
For some reason, I usually start feeling a bit of depression around this time of year, every year. I have no clue why because I'm normally a happy person. It could be the weather and changing of seasons that has something to do with it. Usually art, specifically adult coloring, is what makes me feel better whenever I'm feeling down or stressed, or having anxiety. I try to do things to keep my mind off of the way I'm feeling, because if we focus on how we're feeling, it tends to intensify those feelings. I hope you feel better soon! God bless you!
@@silvers_ink it might be SAD (seasonal affective disorder), which is an actual thing but has a (imo) really funny name. SAD is seasonal depression, of which there are two types. the first, and most common, is winter pattern SAD, which usually begins around late autumn/early winter and goes through late winter/early spring. it is often treated with vitamin D supplements and/or light therapy (sitting in front of a light box for ~40 minutes, usually in the morning). winter pattern SAD is characterized by (along with the basic major depression symptoms), overeating, hypersomnia, and basically is what I think of as human hibernation. summer pattern SAD is pretty much the opposite, starting in late spring/early summer and ending at the end of summer or the start of fall. there aren't any summer pattern SAD specific treatments, since it isn't super common. its symptoms include restlessness, anxiety, insomnia, inability to eat, and those of major depression. so... yeah. sorry, I finished writing this and realized that it was super long, but I wrote a ~10 page paper on depression earlier this year so now I have all this random information on depression and I don't know what to do with it lol. anyway, I hope you feel better than you did when you made your comment! the OP too.
I have loved your videos for years and its hurts to know i wont see anymore videos from you. I hope you feel better and are doing better. You’ve inspired me a lot I would just like to say thank you for everything.💜
I ended up going to college for art, and I have no doubt that your videos were partially responsible for getting me there. I learned today that my art friend has also watched you since forever! Thank you for all you've done to inspire upcoming artists. You've left a huge mark in my life! :)
Yes!!!! Another ZenPop box!! Between the contents of the boxes and the art you create from it, I just can’t handle the cuteness of these videos! 😍 Edit: proud of your crayon pronunciation! Lol but I 100% agree about the grid notebooks for organizing. They’re top tier. Edit 2: YOUR PIXEL ART IS SO ADORABLE! I have loved captain America for years so I about DIED when you showed him!!
"Oh, don't feel like taking out the trash? Do it anyway!" "That's what I thought, simple advice, but it goes a long way. That's your advice for the day!" Waffles rhyming skills are unparalleled.
So in case anyone was curious about what creatures on the stickers. In order: 1. Dumbo Octopus (Pearl from Nemo) 2. Sea rabbits (they are adorable and photosynthesize) 3. Spotted Garden eels (Love how Rin just called them Socks and from now on they should be called that) 4. Oarfish (Myths say they can spot calamity) 5. Dolphins 6. Racoon Butterfly fish with a normal silver fish (cant really tell what the silver fish is, could be any thousands of species) 7. Sun Fish and a Manta Ray or Sting ray. (Could be either and no they arent the same animal, Manta rays are bigger and have defined wings while Sting rays are rounded shape) 8. Blue Tang and Moorish Idol (Dory and Gill from Nemo) 9. Sea rabbits again 10. Clown Fish (Nemo) 11. Great white shark 12. Jellyfish I know this comment will go in the abyss of the comment section but wanted to share in case anyone was curious and honestly these stickers are just adorable. Rin has been my inspiration as an artist for years and out of all the art youtubers I watch she has taught me the most and binge watching her videos at the end of the day brings a smile on my face. Thanks for always putting out such great videos and cant wait to see what interesting art suppy you use next time 😊
I always love seeing what you come up with in these ZenPop videos, it always turns out beautifully! So excited to start watching! I hope your recovery is going better, Rin! And I hope you're able to get your medicine straightened out. I'm so happy to see a video from you, but I hope you don't feel pressured to post. We all just want what's best for you! Take as much time as you need 💜
I miss her uploads, I've watched all of her vids, and love them. Rin, can you post at least one more time. your art is so awesome and has inspired me so much.
Oh yes! I have been on the fence of getting a zen pop subscription for awhile now, and still can’t make up my mind! This video definitely gave me a lot of inspiration to draw today! Thank you waffles! (Also at 6:07 the “whatever that is.” Is a nudibranch! My personal favorite animal! Give them a google! 😊 they’re a kind of sea slug! They’re names means “naked gill.” I owned one for a long while!)
This is the first time iv commented on one of your videos as far as I can remember, and honestly I don’t know if you will ever see this but I wanted to say thank you! Your art and videos inspired me a lot at a young age, I’m 15 now and I’m still drawing tho iv struggle with art being more of an addiction than a hobby I love art endlessly and have learned so much from you. You were on of the fist artists I ever found that showed the process of how you created art in an easy to understand way showing the steps and your thinking in an unrushed way that allowed me to learn from you. Your artistic Abilities fascinated me. iv wanted to draw like you since I was a kid who stumbled upon one of your videos. =)
Yes yes yes!!! I’m so thrilled to hear from you! I have been doing some deep dives into old content to hold me over. Sending all the healing thoughts and love ❤
@@drawingwiffwaffles my favorites are the subscription boxes like scrawler box. I love to see what you can do with the supplies especially when you use the prompt.
You have some of the best character design skills on TH-cam. I really wish Jazza would do a collab with you, I think you two together would kill it in a collab.
I was having such a crappy day and it literally makes no sense why seeing the notification you had a new video made me feel better... other than I could watch and not have to stress about medical stuff for a short time. Thank you for having great timing 🙏🏾
AHH i love washi tape! so it’s basically used for decoration, on a card, a notebook, letters, or using it to decorate journal spreads which is what i use them for! they’re very versatile
Rin, because of you i wanted Ohuhu markers,so when i got a job i bought them, thank you for introducing me to them, and i love when you get close to the end of a sketch book, when i get close to the end of one of mine i panic because i dont have another sketch book after it lol
Your videos make my day! Thank you for continuing to work hard on them even if you don’t feel like it sometimes I understand burn out especially with art.❤️
Whatever you post, whatever art you make, it's always OUR pleasure, so thank YOU! Btw I got super nostalgia from the 2010s now, and Lauren the-gamer-girl is adorable! I feel like drawing her... Heck yeah! ❤
Hello Rin! I'm so happy you continue to do what you do, you are such an incredible inspiration for me! If it were not for you I would never have gotten into art and enjoyed it! Thank you so much We love you Rin! ❤
So happy to see you back and at it Rin! I’ve been praying for you and I hope your feeling better! Art is like medicine and it makes me so happy to see you happy and get to making art! 💖 Now I wanna draw!
As you kept adding more to her outfit I was like, “how is she drawing my closet from 2011??” High school days were definitely brought back to my mind haha 😂 anyone else feel the same??
I feel you on the adrenaline front. I have been dealing with some issues with potential Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I have been finding some time to sketch and draw again. I'm sure it's a total release for you when you get to create. I can only imagine what creating must take out of you though with everything going on. I get emotional and so happy to see you post! I always worry when you're quiet but I'm happy that you're taking this time for your body and letting yourself go through the medication and giving it the rest you need. (Even if it's hard. I so understand that too, I'm a mom and I try to do everything for my kiddo.)
My favorite art TH-camr is back! Take care dear, I always look forward to your posts but I'm so happy you are taking care of yourself too. 🥰 Best wishes.
I’m running out of old videos to watch :( i meeeed more. You're my comfort TH-camr and you have giving me so much inspiration and motivation when it comes to getting back into drawing. I’ll even take like a 5 min video or something. Hope you're doing alright. Can’t wait to get some new wAfflevideos to eat up.
Oh man digital pixel art is stressful enough, can't imagine doing it traditionally so massive kudos to you! The colour palette gives me big Stardew Valley vibes haha
Watching you draw and how positive you are with the mistakes you make just gets me in a drawing mood! And when you draw something you dont really like, you always laugh and are positive about it! Which encourages me so much!
I'm so glad your back to making videos and feeling better you always inspire me to draw something!!! Also real excited for a possible sketch book tour in the near future ☺️
I’m so happy whenever you upload, you help me come up with things to draw and I got into college! I’m going to study art and I need to thank you for keeping me interested in art for so long even when I found no want to draw. Thank you rin
I started watching your videos right at the beginning of quarentine. They really inspired me to learn to draw. It’s something that has never brought me stress and allows me to express myself. I even used to be a perfectionist but drawing has helped me overcome that completely. I’m always excited to challenge myself and learn more about art. It’s been a little more than 3 years now and I still watch your videos. I even went to an art camp last summer and now I’m going again and I even got a scolarship! I cannot imagine where I would be now without watching my first video of yours. Thank you!
I kinda dropped off of art for awhile but I’m getting back into it and your videos are so relaxing to just listen to even if I’m not drawing along. I’m one of those people who always needs some kind of audio in the background of anything and everything and just listening to you is quite relaxing which is something I need 💜🫂 I hope your health improves 💜 I feel that as a fellow human with health issues 🥺
I have been watching for a long while and haven't said a thing, but I'm saying it now. Your art is so darn cute! I'm looking forward to your next sketches and sketchbook tour! You inspire me to find my own style of drawing. I've been praying for you to get better so you can continue to spread the cute artwork.
AHH U POSTED! You always make me bust out the sketchbook when you come out with a new video. I’m going through a bit of depression and you help me a LOT
Thank you, Rin, for being a huge motivation and inspiration in creating art. I use your videos so often to motivate me and inspire me when drawing, I say as I'm doing so. I'm sorry about recent issues regarding your health, but I hope you can overcome these problems and stay strong through them. We're all rooting for you!
Mt Fuji and Wheels are my fav. reoccurring characters. I'm happy your back and doing well! I'm doing a redraw your childhood art challenge while watching. TY for new video!
This is one of my favorites!!! I love the look of pixel art. I have been trying to finish a birthday piece for my best friend. Hopefully I can finish it before then. I am gonna try my best. Thank you for the inspiration ☺️❤️ your videos help a lot and they are very healing too. I’m truly grateful ❤️
Hi Rin, I found your videos about half a year ago when I had really stopped drawing. With the stresses of everyday life and some health issues, it's been hard finding my way back to drawing but thanks to you and my fiancé, I have found inspiration again and have actually learned a lot more than I ever would've if I just gave up. Thank you for being your wonderful self, and it's so nice to see you posting again 💚💙
I have been sick for about a month and haven't been able to draw. I miss it so much, but have been feeling anxious about picking up my sketchbook. This video came at the perfect time because I find you inspiring. And motivating.. "just do it anyways" Thank you
As someone with a chronic illness I tend to watch a lot of TH-cam and I am happy to say you are my favourite by far. I look forward to your videos. They make me laugh and feel good in the moment. Such positivity is a blessing ❤️
Watching and just wondering if you are doing okay 🥹 missing your amazing self on TH-cam that’s for sure. Patiently waiting for you to post, really hoping you’re off doing happy things❤️
hi ren :) ive struggled w anxiety ever since i was a little girl, and while still being little, i am still fighting with anxiety. ur videos rlly calm me down in times where i feel like i’m spiraling out of control. tysm & pls remember that u r very loved & appreciated by so many people . you are a very intricate and unique person
Hey waffles! Hope your doing okay. Your videos always inspire me to draw! Edit: I was drawing along with you! I was designing a shapeshifter character that can turn into different animals but the colours of them are always the same.
I always wonder why I do certain things while drawing and I’ve come back to Rin’s videos and I’m just like. “Ah. So they’re *stolen* habits” These videos helped me with my art journey more than I realized.
I absolutely love your art and thought process while drawing ❤ but im currently drawing a girl in some rain 🌧️ Always love your videos im pretty sure there isn’t one that i could dislike lol
I was rubbish in art classes as a child - Maybe the teachers didn't inspire or were too rigid in their approach. Throughout adult life I've wanted to draw but have always found that books or courses tell you to do it like this or like that. However, finally at 48, I sat down with a piece of printer paper and a black ink fineliner to draw whatever. I started with some cartoon characters, a ninja, a giraffe and the Hulk - very eclectic choices! Each time it's my own style. I discovered in the last year that I'm autistic, which has been a huge positive and life changing experience. I love the black ink fineliner for the way it feels as I draw - I have my own style (who knows what I've picked up from books and the internet subconsciously over the years!) I love the fact that my mistakes are not erased and I love how I can gently persuade the lines into the shape I want. I finding out how difficult it is to do light and dark with one black pen and exploring different ways of representing it - without any overt inspiration from other sources. I love the experience because it's for me and it's my art. It's a representation of me and how I feel. This video is one of the best I have ever seen. The reason is that while you set out to show off one style you recognised and chose to move to a style that brought you joy. That made those second lot of sketches amazing. They were you. I'm not an aspiring artist but I have found joy in my drawing (which I do sometimes share with others as I'm proud of them) and I found your video today really inspiring. Thank you :)
@@drawingwiffwaffles I'm sorry to read you're fighting something new. I feel like I've experienced most of the complications my illness has to offer. It's very frustrating, but I'm so proud of you for "doing it anyway". You've got this even if doesn't feel like it. Just take it 1 day, 1 hr or even 1min at a time. That's all perseverance really is. You're often in my prayers, Rin.
I’m always SO excited to see a video of yours pop up! Especially now that you’re not uploading so frequently (which I think is the best choice you could have made for yourself, sending you all the love and good wishes for your health ❤) it feels that much more special and I enjoy every second!
You uploaded at the perfect time!! I’m about to start my new sketchbook, but I have no ideas lol. Your videos always give me inspiration! Also, I hope you’re doing well, Rin, I read your community posts a while ago & I’ve been hoping & praying for you to feel better! Much love ❤️❤️
I’m finishing the sketch of a lobster to paint while I watch, I figured out I really love painting things like frogs and shrimp bc of the way the skin is shiny I find the layering with gouache rlly fun :D
I’ve gotta say, your videos make my day. I’m always so excited to see them and want to rush to watch. I’ve had a very hard year and it’s nice to always find joy where ever I can find it. 🙏🏻 thank you 😊
So on the stickers, there two you pointed out that you weren't sure on what they arez are sea slugs (which are wayyyyyyyy prettier and better than a garden slug), and the spotted garden eel, which like to hide in the sand and periscope out. They are both awesome, and which looking into. Specially as design and art choices 😉
Thank you so so much for showing your entire drawing process, especially when you redraw the same thing until it looks right. I have struggled with my art because I’m afraid it won’t be perfect, but you have given me the confidence to just keep trying and have fun with it!
Is it just me or do you guys also feel a bit excited when Rin is approaching the end of a sketchbook? It could mean a sketchbook tour in a not-so-distant future 👀
hehe i know i get excited to finish a sketchbook. haha
And then a possible new sketchbook cover design 👀
Omg every video I wait to see where she flips to in her sketch book!

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS RIN!!
So happy to see you back and at it Rin! I’ve been praying for you and I hope your feeling better! Art is like medicine and it makes me so happy to see you happy and get to making art! 💖 Now I wanna draw!
It’s so good to see you back! Prayers for healing and restoration! You are a joy to watch and a blessing to this world.
As you kept adding more to her outfit I was like, “how is she drawing my closet from 2011??” High school days were definitely brought back to my mind haha 😂 anyone else feel the same??
I feel you on the adrenaline front. I have been dealing with some issues with potential Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
I have been finding some time to sketch and draw again. I'm sure it's a total release for you when you get to create. I can only imagine what creating must take out of you though with everything going on.
I get emotional and so happy to see you post! I always worry when you're quiet but I'm happy that you're taking this time for your body and letting yourself go through the medication and giving it the rest you need. (Even if it's hard. I so understand that too, I'm a mom and I try to do everything for my kiddo.)
Good to see you back I love your art so much!!
💜💜
My favorite art TH-camr is back! Take care dear, I always look forward to your posts but I'm so happy you are taking care of yourself too. 🥰 Best wishes.
I’m running out of old videos to watch :( i meeeed more. You're my comfort TH-camr and you have giving me so much inspiration and motivation when it comes to getting back into drawing.
I’ll even take like a 5 min video or something.
Hope you're doing alright.
Can’t wait to get some new wAfflevideos to eat up.
Not even joking, ive been watching you forever, and you've influenced my style so much :D
Oh man digital pixel art is stressful enough, can't imagine doing it traditionally so massive kudos to you! The colour palette gives me big Stardew Valley vibes haha
i was thinking perry the platypus 😭
So glad to see you well enough to film and create again! Love seeing your process - I’ve been crocheting as I watch!
Your art is always amazing. Idk how you do it!!❤
You're too kind. thank you 💜
Watching you draw and how positive you are with the mistakes you make just gets me in a drawing mood! And when you draw something you dont really like, you always laugh and are positive about it! Which encourages me so much!
I'm so glad your back to making videos and feeling better you always inspire me to draw something!!! Also real excited for a possible sketch book tour in the near future ☺️
I’m so happy whenever you upload, you help me come up with things to draw and I got into college! I’m going to study art and I need to thank you for keeping me interested in art for so long even when I found no want to draw. Thank you rin
yay! a new drawingwiffwaffles video! i love your artwork so much!! hope you’re doing well, Rin 💕
Thank you Violet!
I started watching your videos right at the beginning of quarentine. They really inspired me to learn to draw. It’s something that has never brought me stress and allows me to express myself. I even used to be a perfectionist but drawing has helped me overcome that completely. I’m always excited to challenge myself and learn more about art. It’s been a little more than 3 years now and I still watch your videos. I even went to an art camp last summer and now I’m going again and I even got a scolarship! I cannot imagine where I would be now without watching my first video of yours. Thank you!
I kinda dropped off of art for awhile but I’m getting back into it and your videos are so relaxing to just listen to even if I’m not drawing along. I’m one of those people who always needs some kind of audio in the background of anything and everything and just listening to you is quite relaxing which is something I need 💜🫂 I hope your health improves 💜 I feel that as a fellow human with health issues 🥺
I've been going through a depressive episode for the past two weeks so seeing my favourite human upload a video is such cheer up. Thank you Rin! ❤💖💜
I have been watching for a long while and haven't said a thing, but I'm saying it now. Your art is so darn cute! I'm looking forward to your next sketches and sketchbook tour! You inspire me to find my own style of drawing. I've been praying for you to get better so you can continue to spread the cute artwork.
when you draw it’s pretty and peaceful it’s nice to have on while i’m sitting lazy or on my way to bed
Im so happy to see you post Rin! Im glad your feeling well enough to film! I love your channel!
Thank you Lily!
AHH U POSTED! You always make me bust out the sketchbook when you come out with a new video. I’m going through a bit of depression and you help me a LOT
Rewatching your vid Rin 😍 Missin' your videos. Hope you're okay now and get to see your new uploads drawing wiff waffles ⭐💜

You really inspired me to draw and because of you I have drawn so much better than before! You really inspire people keep up the good work!

Thank you, Rin, for being a huge motivation and inspiration in creating art. I use your videos so often to motivate me and inspire me when drawing, I say as I'm doing so.
I'm sorry about recent issues regarding your health, but I hope you can overcome these problems and stay strong through them. We're all rooting for you!
I was NOT expecting a motivational Mike Mulligan reference in a stationery unboxing video, but I am not complaining 😆
Omg she’s back 😭😭 I literally love you and I’m so excited to rewatch this like 3 times 😭❤️
aww you're so kind! 💜💜 thank you!

Mt Fuji and Wheels are my fav. reoccurring characters. I'm happy your back and doing well! I'm doing a redraw your childhood art challenge while watching. TY for new video!
This is one of my favorites!!! I love the look of pixel art. I have been trying to finish a birthday piece for my best friend. Hopefully I can finish it before then. I am gonna try my best. Thank you for the inspiration ☺️❤️ your videos help a lot and they are very healing too. I’m truly grateful ❤️
Hi Rin, I found your videos about half a year ago when I had really stopped drawing. With the stresses of everyday life and some health issues, it's been hard finding my way back to drawing but thanks to you and my fiancé, I have found inspiration again and have actually learned a lot more than I ever would've if I just gave up.
Thank you for being your wonderful self, and it's so nice to see you posting again 💚💙
So glad you posted hope you are doing well!! You are always an inspiration for me to draw ❤
that makes me so happy. thank you! 💜
@@drawingwiffwaffles always! ❤️
I have been sick for about a month and haven't been able to draw. I miss it so much, but have been feeling anxious about picking up my sketchbook. This video came at the perfect time because I find you inspiring. And motivating.. "just do it anyways" Thank you
we miss you rin stay strong love ❤️
im really glad you’re getting back into a rhythm of posting videos again, i can never get enough of watching your art process.
Glad to see you back, Rin! I hope you're doing alright!💜
As someone with a chronic illness I tend to watch a lot of TH-cam and I am happy to say you are my favourite by far. I look forward to your videos. They make me laugh and feel good in the moment. Such positivity is a blessing ❤️
When I saw that you uploaded I was so happy! Your art is so inspiring, keep up the good work :D
I really don’t know what happened…but I’m glad your better! Your an inspiration and I love drawing along with your videos
Watching and just wondering if you are doing okay 🥹 missing your amazing self on TH-cam that’s for sure. Patiently waiting for you to post, really hoping you’re off doing happy things❤️
hi ren :) ive struggled w anxiety ever since i was a little girl, and while still being little, i am still fighting with anxiety. ur videos rlly calm me down in times where i feel like i’m spiraling out of control. tysm & pls remember that u r very loved & appreciated by so many people . you are a very intricate and unique person
Hello waffles! I’m happy to see you on my feed again especially with a cute zen pop box, I hope all is well. Love you waffles 💜💜💜
Thank you Sushi! 💜💜💜
ikr! i saw her on my recommended and i literally GASPED hehe
Rin love your voice it is just so calming and it always brightens my day i hope you will be a famous artist one day!
Hey waffles! Hope your doing okay. Your videos always inspire me to draw!
Edit: I was drawing along with you! I was designing a shapeshifter character that can turn into different animals but the colours of them are always the same.
I always wonder why I do certain things while drawing and I’ve come back to Rin’s videos and I’m just like. “Ah. So they’re *stolen* habits”
These videos helped me with my art journey more than I realized.
I absolutely love your art and thought process while drawing ❤ but im currently drawing a girl in some rain 🌧️
Always love your videos im pretty sure there isn’t one that i could dislike lol
so glad to hear that. 💜 you're too kind
I was rubbish in art classes as a child - Maybe the teachers didn't inspire or were too rigid in their approach. Throughout adult life I've wanted to draw but have always found that books or courses tell you to do it like this or like that. However, finally at 48, I sat down with a piece of printer paper and a black ink fineliner to draw whatever. I started with some cartoon characters, a ninja, a giraffe and the Hulk - very eclectic choices! Each time it's my own style. I discovered in the last year that I'm autistic, which has been a huge positive and life changing experience. I love the black ink fineliner for the way it feels as I draw - I have my own style (who knows what I've picked up from books and the internet subconsciously over the years!) I love the fact that my mistakes are not erased and I love how I can gently persuade the lines into the shape I want. I finding out how difficult it is to do light and dark with one black pen and exploring different ways of representing it - without any overt inspiration from other sources. I love the experience because it's for me and it's my art. It's a representation of me and how I feel.
This video is one of the best I have ever seen. The reason is that while you set out to show off one style you recognised and chose to move to a style that brought you joy. That made those second lot of sketches amazing. They were you. I'm not an aspiring artist but I have found joy in my drawing (which I do sometimes share with others as I'm proud of them) and I found your video today really inspiring. Thank you :)
The pixel art sketches are so cute also I am drawing a fanart and gonna use washitape on it
thanks!
My daughter and I hope you are feeling better! We love your content! Thank you for everything you do!!❤❤
Thank you Ana! Fighting something new. Its never ending. But thank you! 💜💜💜
@@drawingwiffwaffles I'm sorry to read you're fighting something new. I feel like I've experienced most of the complications my illness has to offer. It's very frustrating, but I'm so proud of you for "doing it anyway". You've got this even if doesn't feel like it. Just take it 1 day, 1 hr or even 1min at a time. That's all perseverance really is. You're often in my prayers, Rin.
Thinking about Rin today
I’m always SO excited to see a video of yours pop up! Especially now that you’re not uploading so frequently (which I think is the best choice you could have made for yourself, sending you all the love and good wishes for your health ❤) it feels that much more special and I enjoy every second!
You uploaded at the perfect time!! I’m about to start my new sketchbook, but I have no ideas lol. Your videos always give me inspiration! Also, I hope you’re doing well, Rin, I read your community posts a while ago & I’ve been hoping & praying for you to feel better! Much love ❤️❤️
I’m finishing the sketch of a lobster to paint while I watch, I figured out I really love painting things like frogs and shrimp bc of the way the skin is shiny I find the layering with gouache rlly fun :D
I hope you’re alright. I still rewatch your videos
check her community tab on yt💕 she gave an update there more recently!
I’ve gotta say, your videos make my day. I’m always so excited to see them and want to rush to watch. I’ve had a very hard year and it’s nice to always find joy where ever I can find it. 🙏🏻 thank you 😊
Miss uuu❤❤
So on the stickers, there two you pointed out that you weren't sure on what they arez are sea slugs (which are wayyyyyyyy prettier and better than a garden slug), and the spotted garden eel, which like to hide in the sand and periscope out.
They are both awesome, and which looking into. Specially as design and art choices 😉
You did. You created a female Shaggy😂
Thank you so so much for showing your entire drawing process, especially when you redraw the same thing until it looks right. I have struggled with my art because I’m afraid it won’t be perfect, but you have given me the confidence to just keep trying and have fun with it!
Where did rin go?? She's not posting!
